I would suggest the following:
Lack of enforcement of a common linux standard. There is no requirement
for a program to be "Linux Certified" so to speak. This allows for the
morass of different dependencies that exist even for RPM files meant for
a particular distribution.

Stepping up a level, let me take a poll: why is it that there is no
perfect distribution?

Run ldd on /bin/ls. If libacl.so is in the list, you are not okay.
Re-emerge coreutils, verifying that it builds with the "-acl" USE
flag.

Heh, heh. (-:
First of all, a perfect distribution, even for one person's definition
of perfect, is beyond human capability. Our software systems are so

Hey Mr. smartA#
I did that... before I got the raid setup, I tested the drives individually.
they came up about 45/MB/s each, raided they come up about 50 MB/s.
on the primary ide controller (onboard) I have the 160 gb disk), it does about
56-58 MB/s as a single drive.
I have a dvdr on the secondary controller
Did Kbob say that?!
Yes, Gentoo is a PITA. Thus, I only run it on my gaming box with
Slackware everywhere else.
Shouldn't that be "no perfect distro for x86?"

Run hdparm on /dev/hde and /dev/hdg seperately and make sure
each drive is set up right. Then bench /dev/md0 again if you
make any changes. Could be the cheap controller too.
