There ya go, fixed that for ya Dale :-)
Well, if I wanted to stay fairly ancient, I could have stayed with
Mandrake. They were pretty slow to release packages and even then they
were way behind. lol
That's one thing about Gentoo, you get new stuff pretty quick even if
you run stable. If you run unstable, you get things really quick, bugs
and all. ;-)
Speaking of ancient:
Apr 16 2009 /boot/bzImage-2.6.23-r8-8
I still got that old kernel in there. I would be surprised if it would
boot and work. I bet udev would really have "issues" with that old
thing. I'm not running that tho. I am actually up to 2.6.35-gentoo-r4
so far. See, I'm not completely ancient. lol
