[gentoo-user] cannot compile kvm
hi, i cannot access my computer now, so i can only tell you what i remember. i am using gentoo amd64, and the portage is updated. the kernel have kvm modules compiled. when i was trying to emerge kvm-kmod, it is said to have been masked, so i unmasked it. but while compiling, kvm-kmod failed with an error message like: cannot file arc/x86/trace.h file -- Best Regards, David Shen http://twitter.com/davidshen84/ http://meme.yahoo.com/davidshen84/
