Oh, one other oddity. The vmware modules vmmon and vmnet which should be loaded by /etc/init.d/vmware in default mode, don't get loaded. Can't figure out why. Make sure the kernel version in /usr/src/linux matches the version of the kernel currently running. What does the following command

I'm popping Gmail too, with KMail, but do see my own posts. My fault, sorry :( I set up a filter in Thunderbird to move every message sent by me in the sent folder (so that when I send a msg with gmail via web, I also have a copy of it in my sent folder locally). This obviously is not what I

I am compiling it right now. Just a little question regarding aRTS. I compiled into 3.4.0 but now I have decided to dump it. Could there be any problem compiling with USE=-alsa for 3.4.1 (if there is, I would probably have to recompile again, as I use that right now :) )? Andreas, I do not see

If you want a 64 bit userland then you should start over with an AMD64 stage. So you mean that whenever the hardware platform changes are so substantial (as in this case), one should install the system from scratch? Please, bear with me, I'm a new Gentoo user, even though I've been using Linux
