Oh, another tip... I had some reiserfs issues with a gentoo-sources
kernel once when I compiled it with gcc 3.2. I believe that 2.95 is
the only officially supported compiler, so if you want to minimize the
chance of obscure bugs, use that.

I've been using the vanilla 2.4.24 kernel with the -uv1 patchset and
it's been great:
http://www.hardrock.org/kernel/2.4.24-updates/00README
The -uv series patchset is bug fixes only, no features or optimizations.

Is there a program out there that will monitor various loads on a system

Other than that, there were no problems. To get around it, I simply set a

Last time I tried Intermezzo (maybe 6 months ago or so), it wasn't

something. Other users reported it being pretty buggy as well.

The User Guide shouldn't require a system update. It should *suggest* it.
You don't need to upgrade anything that you don't want to. Gentoo's

I haven't tried it, but you should also be able to make yourself your own

this into all of your machines' overlay directories. For an example, look

If you don't use xmms-arts, then what might happen is that xmms will lock

So, I got it to work with a little hack. Turns out that if I use OSS

artsd either before the suspend or after the resume, sound in kde resumes

Hmmm... isn't this kind of tough if you use KDE/Gnome (they like to keep
control of sound with arts/esd)?
If I can get sound compiled into the kernel, will that help?

I've got a Dell Latitude X200 which mostly works with Gentoo Linux (have
never tried any of the other distributions). The only thing that's really
broken (haven't had time to figure this one out yet) is that when I
suspend, then resume, sound goes away. Otherwise, everything else works.

If you don't want to deal with appending random data in front of every
