Either way, replacing those should enable everything to work again. I will be taking my thinkpad with me on my trip, and plan to look more at the Gentoo backend as well as NetworkManager and its dependencies, to get back up to speed. It has been a bit of a rough time in my personal life, and I can't wait to get back to things.
