ay want to use a tun and
iptables or ip_forward/route. One idea you might try is what I
suggested, but with br0 = subnetA, br0:1 = subnetB... Not sure it would
work, but worth a try.
Assuming your tap device is the end of an incoming VPN, the proxy arping
is only necessary if you want the VPN client (the above script is for
the VPN server) to be able to hit the internet through the server's gateway.
Yeah, looking at the preup/postdown functions just now made me realize I
wrote them a _long_ time ago. rewrite at your leisure... ;-)

prefer to avoid re-merging all of
x.org/compiz-fusion/emerald if I can avoid it.
Also, when compiling X.org/mesa/drm from source, it builds the kernel
modules drm.ko and i915.ko. What package does that in gentoo?

This only becomes an issue with modules that are compiled outside of
the kernel tree [1].
To fix this you have two options. either switch out which version of

This error may be confusing. Perhaps you need to see the bug I raised against

Everybody welcome Tester back to the amd64 team. For those of you who don't
know, Tester and DRobbins originally started the amd64 arch builds for
Gentoo.
Tester just got another amd64 box, so he'll be able to contribute more great
things to the arch. :-)
Welcome back Tester!
What motherboard/chip set combinations are best supported in recent
kernels under AMD64? I am thinking of Gigabyte or Asus boards, which seem to
be the most readily available around here, with either nVidia or VIA
chip sets.
I do care about open drivers and want to support hardware that

Try

multilib support.
