I have on my new rig seen=20 the failure be as far back as a couple hundred lines. There are a=20 number of times that I have had to use the Find function to even find=20 the original failure because it is so far back. I have even set Konsole=20 to have unlimited history. Unless it is going to tail -n 500 or more,=20 that may not go back far enough. This is the age of multiple cores and=20 enough ram to use tmpfs. I have both. 4 cores and 16Gbs of ram. MAKEOPTS=3D"-j10" tmpfs on /var/tmp/portage type tmpfs (rw,noatime) The MAKEOPTS is increasing. I'm looking for that sweet spot. ;-) Dale :-) :-)
