Well, it appears that one version is stable: root@fireball / # equery list -p eudev * Searching for eudev ... [-P-] [ ] sys-fs/eudev-0:0 [-P-] [ ~] sys-fs/eudev-1_beta1-r1:0 [-P-] [ -] sys-fs/eudev-9999:0 root@fireball / # The first one is not keyworded or masked. You are right, I don't like the init fix because when I used Mandrake, it caused me all sorts of problems. That and the upgrade process for Mandrake is the reason I switched to Gentoo. If eudev is ready, then so am I. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
