I think I got it all sorted and am building a new kernel. It will have a -2 on the end instead of a -1. I'll test it in a bit. I got some things to prepare for tomorrow plus we have storms coming in tonight. The rain is already on the radar and it is a bit windy here. May take a bit before I reboot. Just depends. ;-) I'm hoping to get this sorted so I can then move on to more issues, and maybe a new thread. lol Will reply in a bit on what blows up. ROFL Dale :-) :-) --=20 I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words! Miss the compile output? Hint: EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS=3D"--quiet-build=3Dn"
