I don't want to feed this but what it really comes down to is if your
not happy use the 2.4 kernels or make friendly constructive comments on
the Kernel mailing lists where a developer who has given many many hours
to bring you this nice new kernel can answer and maybe resolve your
issues. Remember all this is free and comes from the love and time of a
select few people who have the knowledge and time to do something like
this.
Ranting and raving on a Gentoo user list is going to get you nowhere. If you want someone to be held accountable for a product buy closed source, buy Microsoft where you are guaranteed to get the same every time and have some one to have a go at.
Open source is about choice. If you don't like one choice make another. Maybe go to a BSD instead of Linux if it doesn't rock your boat properly.

Umm... that is complete bull, I think the list is open for such topics of discussion. I have not had problems with other kernels say on my Slackware 9.1 boxes/servers..or other computers that I install certain distros of Linux on.. ? (And I install quite a few systems each month).
Other people have already piped in and agreed with me also.
How can you say it isnt a Gentoo user list issue?
I am using Gentoo, quite happily.. on 8 systems!
And if you have followed any of my posts, You would have seen that I have pointed out exactly what is going wrong, hoping someone who knows better can post a fix.
I quote:
"you want someone to be held accountable for a product buy closed source, buy Microsoft where you are guaranteed to get the same every time and have some one to have a go at."
/\ that above my friend is complete bull, are you some kid or something?
I am a President of a Linux Users Group and I help people out with Linux everyday, I contribute to open source and to even try and tell me to
"buy Microsoft" is another complete line of bull also.
What gives you the right to even say something like that is beyond me.
I am not looking for someone to "be held accountable" I am looking for an answer to my problem, of which is "Gentoo" related. The sources I get are from Gentoo ebuilds. So that makes it a "Gentoo" issue.
I will gladly post my complaints and rants to the kernel mailing list, if that is what it takes.
So what happens next? Are you going to have me banned from the list, because of my opinions?
Get off your high horse and get a clue.
Thank you
