Hi All-
I've read the portage documentation at
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/index.xml?catid=gentoo and I've searched
and browsed the gentoo-user mailing list archive, but I have a question
that I don't see answered anywhere.
It seems to me that it must be true that sometimes, after a system
upgrade done with:
emerge -uD system
or
emerge -uD world
I must reboot the computer for the changes to take effect.
I reboot if I need to install or change hardware. As far as
updates go, you may have to reboot after compiling a new kernel.
I think that I may have read somewhere how to change kernels
without rebooting, so you may not even need to reboot for any
software.
