Those are quickly fixed. Once running, everything has been stable for me. I guess that since "unstable" is so stable that no one is inclined to unmask it for "stable" mask. ;-) So go for it... By far the biggest headaches have been all the changes happening in the Xorg world, but that seems to have stabilized now also. But always keep in mind that as a Gentoo user you are your own system's integrator... -- Keith Dart -- -- -------------------- Keith Dart =======================
