Distcc looks after any changes between machines. Your desktop will compile everything like it would be compiled on your laptop. Your desktop only provides the tools and cpu cycles for the compile, not the specs from your desktop make.conf and such. The important part about using distcc is having a common toolset. You should have the same gcc compiler and glibc or you could have problems. try it you'll like it. -- Brian <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
