The Device Drivers section is exactly where the microcode is included.
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE is the relevant symbol.

You can use MC Extractor to extract the metadata associated with the
AMD microcode updates.
The microcode_amd.bin which is part of
sys-kernel/linux-firmware-20180103-r1 contains the following microcode
updates:

Your BIOS or EFI might already install the same version or a later
version than what the microcode package provides. Although the second
case is highly unlikely.
The update might also just not get applied prope

Not necessarily.

The easiest way to check whether the microcode update was applied
correctly would be to check the microcode version in /proc/cpuinfo
$ pip install --user awscli
or $ pip2.7 install --user awscli works.

Hi,
I think the main toolbar of the gnome filemanager uses up far to much
space. So I'd like to make it smaller. Is there any way to do that? I
would be happy with the text and no icons as well, or smaller icons and
no text.

sorry for the delay, I wanted to finish the revdep-rebuild. Even on my

Anyway, you where right, the unixODBC problem disappeared after fixing

Hi Rumen,
I ran just revdep-rebuild and had the problem as soon as the gnome
keyring app was compiled. The number of packages here is about the same
(44 on a gnome only system).
I can't find the meaning of -p in the man page. What does it mean?

At a closer look i foult out that this is related to gnome-vfs. If you

you should not have any more trouble.
