There=E2=80=99s one big problem I=E2=80=99m having: I = cannot see the Grub (legacy) boot menu. It still functions alright, but I don=E2=80=99t see it. When I switch on the machine, after POST I see the "loading grub" and stage 1.5 message, but then the screen isn=E2=80=99t updated. I can still do my = selection and press Enter, and then I see the "loading kernel..." message without a clearing of the screen first. Any idea what this is? I re-installed Grub and did grub=E2=80=99s own setup procedure, and all files in /boot/grub are from the time of the last emerge. Happy remaining weekend. PS @Michael Mol: it is nice for you that you joined Google+ recently, but a= re you aware that they scanned your address book and spammed around about it? There are some of us who don=E2=80=99t want to be part of any social moloch. --=20 Gru=C3=9F | Greetings | Qapla' Please do not share anything from, with or about me with any Facebook servi= ce.
