A way out of the topic, but its a question that I want to ask. What is the performance hit of using encrypted file system?

Bug-report...Well I'm very confused here. Isn't it Gentoo the right place to file a bug-report at? After all these sources get patched with gentoo patches. I haven't directly downloaded the sources from the maintainer or used vanilla with ck-patches. On the other hand gentoo people have masked these sources with "~" so they could also refuse to take the report (unlikely,but..). Additionally I remember I've read somewhere that Gentoo maintainer(s) are not happy that people "jump over" them and send bug-reports directly to the mainstream developers who of course refuse to accept the report because Gentoo has patched their sources and so on... I'm really not sure what is the proper thing to do about this. -- Best regards, Daniel -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
