Start testing 2.6.17 in your builds now, then. > > > Testing of 2.6.17 is very much appreciated, please also file bugs against > > problems you have with the kernel itself :) > > I had problems with genkernel and 2.6.16 on ppc.

I know, because I've been building on ppc for the past few weeks making sure all of this worked so you wouldn't have trouble once we started the release. Unless you mean Pegasos, which is busted on 2.6.16, genkernel or not, and I've spoken with JoseJX about that one already and he's aware of it. I need to get back with him to see if he (or anyone else) has come up with anything. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering - Strategic Lead x86 Architecture Team Games - Developer Gentoo Linux
