As for my case, it's working well on XenServer and VMware ESX / vSphere (haven't found the time to test a VirtualBox installation yet). Except for one annoyance: Now, I've done the steps put forth by waltdnes here: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/gentoo/user/242563 ... but every "eix-sync && emerge -avuD @world" finds me having to re-edit /usr/portage/virtual/dev-manager/dev-manager-0.ebuild, or else portage wants to emerge sys-apps/makedev and sys-fs/static-dev Is there a way to 'force' portage to use the edited dev-manager-0.ebuild and not the original version pulled in by eix-sync?
