Re: [gentoo-dev] SMP / keyboard kernel issue

[Imre Solti <isolti@mail2.vcu.edu>]

I had once something similar with gentoo-sources in 1.4. Only when 
selected SMP.
Used the vanilla-sources and all was well. Worked with ac-sources as well.
Try to use different sources for the kernel and see if problem is there.
