I'm still on the last 2.6.14 kernel and would like to know any tricks I need to put in place before I run into a USB problem . . . I have hotplug in my rc-update default and coldplug in my rc-update boot. Do I need to change these manually, or will a 2.6.15 kernel and update world sort it out for me? -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
