You have another Listen somewhere it doesn't belong. Either remove that or -D

Or just add -D PUBLIC_HTML to APACHE2_OPTS in /etc/conf.d/apache2.

IIRC, Christel told me that we're currently 332 developers working on it 
(roughly).

It's probably because something in xorg-x11 is requiring virtual/linux-sources 
and for all normal default-linux/{amd64,x86} thats gentoo-sources. So just 
emerge sys-kernel/vanilla-sources and it should be fine (since 
vanilla-sources also provides virtual/linux-sources).

The only thing that is slow, is update-eix due to reading the cache (well slow

eix -s / -S (or what ever you want to search for) is _really_ fast ..

Make, if I understood you right, you would like to do the prempt stuff
ontop of gentoo-sources, right ?

Well then simply do the following:

# emerge a fresh copy of gentoo-sources
$ emerge gentoo-sources

# create a copy (or call it a fork ;)) of this kernel-directory
$ cd /usr/src
$ rsync -rt --progress linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r4/* linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r4.orig

# now go on and apply your patch to the
linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r4-directory. Once you are done, just go back to
/usr/src and create a diff between plain gentoo-sources and your
prempt-patched gentoo-sources.

$ cd /usr/src
$ diff -Nrup linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r4.orig linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r4 >
gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r4-prempt.patch

See above ;)

Yeah, those rejects are really pretty minor. I guess these brakets
differences result from vesafb. But that's only a guess.

Yeah .. or and indent change or something similar.

Well to get that patch working, you *need* to take a look at the *.rej
files
which are created by patch -p1 < realtime-prempt.patch.

Most times this is only due to missing context. That means the line just
before
the one which should be added, is not there or another one is just in
the way.
So `patch` is unable to find the matching context.

As Hiam already said, the alsa-driver ebuilds are most times more recent than 
the kernel-driver.

You've got 2 possibilities:

1: configure your kernel to only include sound system support (CONFIG_SOUND=y) 
and remove Kernel ALSA-support

2: simply use the kernel-alsa and don't use the alsa-driver ebuild.

Well GENTOO_MIRRORS is a list of all your selected distfiles mirrors.
