Re: [gentoo-user] When portage doesn't know about the latest release of a package...

Start off by searching the portage tree for an ebuild of the latest version. Alot of the time it won't upgrade it automaticly, but the newer ebuild could just be sitting in portage. If this isn't the case, then head on over to bugs.gentoo.org and search for the package you are trying to upgrade.

RE: [gentoo-user] portage slots

Quote from http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-howto.xml SLOT Portage handles different versions of the same installed programs. If you would want, say GCC 2.95 and GCC 3.2 installed at the same time, you would specify the SLOT in each ebuild. Here we would set the SLOT of GCC 2.95 to 2 while

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: [gentoo-dev] /dev/pts and Unix98 PTY support

/dev/pts is included in /dev file system (CONFIG_DEVFS_FS) in the 2.4.20+ kernel. For some reason, they dropped support for it in the 2.6 kernel. The gentoo installation guide assumes use of the 2.4.20 kernel. Maybe they should make a note of this in the install guide? luke On Tue, Sep
