I've always tried to keep it as minimal as possible, and I only enable things as I need them. I also don't build modules from the kernel at all. Is there a better way to go? I'm starting to think it might be better to build every single module and let the system load them as it needs them. - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
