The question > is: Which one? Or am I completely wrong in my assumption? Did you compile "QoS and/or fair queuing" support into the kernel (i.e., not the "traffic shaping device" which is in the device section)? It should then load modules automatically (well, if configured in the kernel, that is). Hm, and you _did_ set up the qdiscs and classes first? OTOH, and I don't know for sure if that's needed before configuring the filters. -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
