gentoo-sources-2.6.11-r1 is not longer in the portage tree. See http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=sys-kernel http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-352876-highlight-universal+cd+kernel.html I also recommend for 'emerge gentoo-sources' or look into the /usr/portage/sys-kernel/gentoo-sources and install the lastest ebuild which matches the portage tre. -siddhartha > > --K.Ghosh > 093 910 58 749 > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Debian GNU/Linux user No.301508 > > -- > To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body > "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line. > FAQ: http://www.ilug-cal.org/node.php?id=3 > -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
