Here's my uname -a: Linux andrey 2.6.26.5-rt9 #6 PREEMPT RT Mon Oct 20 18:21:31 EDT 2008 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1700+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux But emerge --info | grep uname is this: System uname: Linux-2.6.26.5-rt9-i686-AMD_Athlon-tm-_XP_1700+-with-glibc2.0 Clearly, the underscores and -with-glibc are part of portage 2.2_rc12. I'm going to scan through the portage _rc12.patch diff to see what's going on. Will report when finished. -- Andrey Vul A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
