If you haven't found them yet, you might want to check out the Gentoo forums. http://forums.gentoo.org I don't think I've encountered any problems with Gentoo that someone hasn't asked about there, and almost always someone has the answer. -- I have Gmail invites... Email me if you want one! _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
