FYI, i've been using 8.3 for about a week without issue. Keep an eye on which binutils you have eselected. I assume having gcc and binutils around the same vintage is the lowest risk setup.

The glaring exception is network cards. > They all seem to default to "Y". Is this a bug or a "feature"? This has been a 'feature' for a while. I find it very annoying. I suppose the idea is to not have users get annoyed that their network card can't be used after building a (generic) kernel. And they consider it justified since network connectivity is crucial to get things done. More for the Ubuntu users than everyone else.
[gentoo-user] New network cards default to "Y" with "make oldconfig"
When setting up a new kernel with "make oldconfig", almost all new device drivers default to "N". The glaring exception is network cards. They all seem to default to "Y". Is this a bug or a "feature"? -- Walter Dnes I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications

[gentoo-user] Any gotchas with gcc 8.2
I just did an emerge update after 6 or 7 weeks. I manually excluded GCC 8.2.0 pending word if there are any problems. How is 8.2.0 working for people? -- Walter Dnes I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications

[gentoo-user] arduino problems
Hello, I've been trying to get a chinese Arduino clone board (HNDuino UNO) working for ~5 hours now. Gentoo does recognize it (shows up correctly in dmesg) but for some reason I keep getting an error while trying to push code onto the damn thing. avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x00 It doesn't create a /dev/ttyACM* device like it's supposed to, instead it creates /dev/ttyUSB0 Pressing "RESET" on the board doesn't help at all. I'm also sure that I'm selecting the right board in the Arduino IDE. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
