Re: [gentoo-user] What is starting net.eth1 [not in rc-update]
It is defiantly in hotplug, I have the same thing happen on my gentoo box with dual gigabit net. There is a way to stop it from starting but I do not remember off the top of my head and cant't look quick as I am away from that box atm on vacation. Should be something on the wiki that will tell you how to turn it off.

Re: [gentoo-user] uvesafb fails to work
I have had problems getting this to work also, but was able to get it working finally after being directed to the authors website and following his instructions. What I did was get a 2.6.24 kernel working for me fully with no errors then proceded to follow spock's instructions to get uvesafb working properly on both my desktop and laptop. Hope this gives you what you need to get it working.
