Done, but before that I ran -a --depclean and, whatdya know, it wanted
to delete 1.3.0 and keep 2.0!
running emerge -C against 2.0 and then revdep-rebuild seemed to have
fixed things. Next world updat
I mostly gentoo, but ubuntu has this marvellous tool 'boot-repair'
based on grub2 in the yannbuntu repo. With one click it finds all the
bootable partitions on your box, writes and installs the grub.cfg.
Next time you boot viola! there's all your OSes ready to be started.

"RCU bugs can often be debugged with the help of
x27;. Ok, but there's no
debug file or dir under /sys/kernel. Do I make one? And will it make a
difference since according to grep DEBUG_FS is not set in the kernel
config?
I'll go and make the new kernel and see what happens.

Had this problem too. Not sure if this suits your case. Have you tried
using UUID in place of /dev/sdx? Use blkid to get the UUID for the
device and replace /dev/sdx in fstab.

Hi group,
I want to upgrade an old 900A netbook, but I have to flash the bios
first. This has proven difficult despite using all the tips I found on
the web. The recommendations call for a small partition on a usb key
formatted fat 16. You copy over the bios file, making sure its called
900A.ROM.

well, looks like I have a problem w/grub2 too. Using the 'c' option, the
old kernel panics AND so does the new one.
TIL set root=(hd1, msdos6). msdos6? No idea where that comes from ;(

Hi group,
I don't even know if this is a problem because my unit
is a 686 but these all display in flashing white on
red:

Hi group,
I'd like to be able to cp or mv certain files from a
dir according to their timestamp.
man cp mentions the '--preserve' option but I don't
think that's what I need.
Does somebody know of some sort of script or perl or
python pass that'll do it?

Hi group,
I notice that after emerge -u system all the links of
the form /usr/bin/i386-pc-linux-gnu/*,
/usr/i386-pc-linux-gnu/bin/* and
/usr/i386-pc-linux-gnu/lib/* point nowhere(flashing
white on red).
Since this is a 686, should I worry? Is it safe to
just delete them or should they be fixed, a

I can't get it to work. I used -ctime, -mtime, -mmin.

$find ~/ (-type f, -fstype mp3) (-mtime, -mmin,

And it never said "bad option" or "file not found".

When I try to export an mp3 in audacity a box opens

another box opens indicating it found the file in
/usr/libs and offers me the choice: cancel or open. I
click the button marked 'open'(Didn't know you could
"open" library files) and
