Oh nononono. If you install GRUB on MBR it can boot from logical paritions (hd?x where x >=5) without problems. I guess LILO can do it to, but it's been a while since I used it last time...

Progress bars do not give any good information. Take a look at a Windows install for example: remain 10 minutes... 20 minutes later: remain 10 minutes... *But* if Windows showed the actual steps instead of a progress bar, after a few installations, I could "manually" estimate the remaining time on ANY hardware with more precision.

This is absolutely ridiculous. Either you have no idea how Linux and specifically Gentoo works, or, you are a complete moron. Sorry about the last, but telling people to add kdm to local.start doesn't: a) keep X from starting. kdm USES X. b) Even if kdm didn't use X, adding kdm to local.start is no solution. You should make a new runlevel. # mkdir /etc/runlevels/i_hate_x # cp /etc/runlevels/default/* /etc/runlevels/i_hate_x # rc-update del xdm default Now, when you start your box, X (gdm, kdm, xdm) won't start.

Replaced keywords with ANSI compatible ones. From "info gcc" Alternate Keywords == `-ansi' and the various `-std' options disable certain keywords. This causes trouble when you want to use GNU C extensions, or a general-purpose header file that should be usable by all programs, including ISO C programs. The keywords `asm', `typeof' and `inline' are not available in programs compiled with `-ansi' or `-std' (although `inline' can be used in a program compiled with `-std=c99'). The ISO C99 keyword `restrict' is only available when `-std=gnu99' (which will eventually be the default) or `-std=c99' (or the equivalent `-std=iso9899:1999') is used. The way to solve these problems is to put `__' at the beginning and end of each problematical keyword. For example, use `__asm__' instead of `asm', and `__inline__' instead of `inline'. Other C compilers won't accept these alternative keywords; if you want to compile with another compiler, you can define the alternate keywords as macros to replace them with the customary keywords. It looks like this: #ifndef __GNUC__ #define __asm__ asm #endif `-pedantic' and other options cause warnings for many GNU C extensions. You can prevent such warnings within one expression by writing `__extension__' before the expression. `__extension__' has no effect aside from this. -- 01:43:37 up 1:55, 1 user, load average: 0.46, 1.58, 2.47 pgp0.pgp Description: signature

It feels faster and that's enough for me. You can't measure every day use in a
reliable way: there're just too many variables. So, if it feels faster, it IS
faster.
Of course, everyone can test on their own if -Os if faster or slower than -O2.

Ok, this is baad (at least for me :-) After upgrading to mplayer 0.92, I lost subtitles. What are these font-arial* for? I can see "osd-mplayer-a.raw" (On Screen Display) but OSD doesn't work either (it used to.) Ideas?

Also, sometimes I'm the owner ;-) But I've found the problem. killall fails with upx compressed executables.
