However, I just rebooted my system (a very rare event), and found that there's a real problem with vmware and apache2. Apache2 comes first, but it's set up knowing about the pseudo-networks that vmware establishes, and it's starting before the networks are alive. This makes it give up and die. Summary: -- is there actually a problem between cups and vmware, and if that's "maybe", how can I tell for sure. -- how do I adjust the order of scripts so that apache starts after vmware? -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
