My distro is Gentoo. > Well the user guide is up to date for the current release version, but as the next answer will tell you, you may be using a later version still. I don't know where gentoo will put that documentation, hopefully someone will be able to anser that. > 2.

This will probably mean you will need to use the standard kernel source rather than the gentoo kernel source (as I remember even their vanilla kernel source which is meant to be it before any modifications seemed to be slightly different preventing speakup patching from CVS). I can't remember how you tell gentoo that you will manage a package yourself as it has been some time since I have used gentoo. > Many thanks for infos > > Cleverson > > "Be realistic; ask for the impossible." > > > > _______________________________________________________ > Yahoo!
