Copy .config from the previous /usr/src/linux/ to the new one,
run 'make xconfig' & tell it to load the .config you copied.

2 outputs? I'm not sure what you mean by this.
Both cards have a VGA-connector and a DVI-connector. On both cards I use the
VGA-connector to
connect them to their respective screens.
And I think both cards are too 'old' for the binary driver, right? I currently

Hello.
When X.Org 1.4 first hit the portage tree, I masked it, as I had quite
some problems getting it to work work with my Nvidia graphics "card".
I decided to stay with 1.3.0.0 for the time being.
Now x11-base/xorg-server-1.4-r2 is in the tree. And also a new version

Emerging xorg set me on the right track.
Xorg-server didn't want to compile. Googling around some posts reminded me
of /etc/portage/packages.mask and how I masked the latest xorg server because
of nvidia issues.
Unmasking it resolved my problem with the keyboard.

The latter warns against using ReiserFS or Lilo on a 64-bit system,
both of which are my longstanding preferences.

First of all, i'd like to point that i had started the ssh daemon and reset
the root password from the beginning. However, after repeated failures i
solved this by connecting using the ip instead of the hostname.
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Also, to Björn, I didn't find a -a option in man tar, what does it do?
Is it different that --atime-preserve? Thanks!
