I never bother with those two and I think that you also should not bother with <*> Intel PIIXn chipsets support. If your read the help page for each option it tells you what sort of bugs the first two deal with. Should you get the symptoms then you'll know to include them, but from what I can see above I wouldn't think that you should concern yourself with them. -- Regards, Mick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
