i'm sorry to everyone, i started a bit of a heated debate.
i didn't mean to imply that the gentoo sites hosting is less than
adequate. I think the gentoo sites do a good job. I couldn't bring up
the site for like 3 seconds today, and wouldn't you know it, I
mentioned it on the mailing lists, and

Sure, they're completely seperate ... officially. But that's not the
point. For good or for ill, gentoo-wiki is - or at least used to be
before the hosting fiasco late
Last week the gentoo forums went down. Then gentoo-wiki.com went down.
Now it seems as though all of gentoo.org is down.
What's the deal? What are we to do about this shoddy hosting?

Hi all,
I recently updated my dell Inspirion 8100's software after I found to
my suprise I could no longer play video fast enough to watch. I did a
kernel upgrade from 2.6.24 to 2.6.28, with a number of
reconfigurations, including moving from madwifi to in-kernel ath5k.
Also updated nvidia-driver
The recently released (early july) advisory on the DNS exploits
discovered earlier this year have caused a bit of stir on the
