I do see a 2006 Gentoo CD. Would that have USB drivers on it? Based on other issues I have ran into here, things not compiling and errors during compiling, I'm really wondering about gcc. Gcc 4.3 will not compile a working kernel at all. The first compiled fine but wouldn't boot. The next booted but things wouldn't work that I know has the right drivers installed. Now, I can't even get a kernel to compile. I been trying to upgrade to 2.6.29 but always have to go back to my trusty old 2.6.23. I have switched back to gcc 4.2 and am recompiling packages with it, up to ivman anyway. This is getting weird. My emerge -ev ivman is about through so I will reboot and try that then a CD boot. Also, how does one "restart" udev? Does going to "rc single" then back to "rc default" restart udev? Surely a person doesn't have to reboot to do this. This is Linux. ;-) Dale :-) :-)
