[gentoo-user] revdep-rebuild openssl problems and questions

2004-01-27 Thread Alan
Sorry if this is bringing up old issues, but I couldn't seem to find enough info out there to fix this up. I finally got around to updating openssl to 0.9.7 on my workstation, which is a mix of stable and ~x86 packages. When I run revdep-rebuild --soname openssl-0.9.7 I get a list of packages

Portage pretty much takes care of everything you need when installing 2.6. You won't need the alsa-driver package anymore. Everything is still configured the same way (modify /etc/modules.d/alsa, modules- update, rc-update add alsasound boot). One thing to remember is that your modules names

Mark, I'll take a copy of your 2.4.23 kernel config sent off-list, if you would. Thanks! A question though ... would I be better served by just going to 2.6 instead? I've been tempted to move anyway but was trying to deal with my USB issue first. Maybe it is time to take the leap. Opinions?
