The emerge process worked completely correctly and everything was moved to the right place. None of that is a problem. The problem I'm having is that I have two machines with identical hardware. (Pundit-R's). They were both running as MythTV frontend only boxes using an old kernel, old ati-driver and old MythTV. One I rebuilt from scratch instead of updating. It works perfectly. The second I updated because it also serves as an NFS file server and I didn't want to take it off line for very long. For some reason on the second machine ati-drivers won't load. That's the problem I was alluding to earlier. Cheers, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
