[gentoo-user] 3Com 3C996B-T: Software shows 1000Mbps, get 100Mbps or less speeds

Sorry if this is a repost, it seems to have disappeared into the bit bucket. I put a 3Com 3C996B-T 1000Mbps NIC in my system. It uses the tg3 (broadcom) driver, which I have compiled in. The kernel messages show the link at 1000. The light on the NIC shows this. The lights on the switch show this

[gentoo-user] No MySQL 4.1 Support ?

Hi, Gentoo must be the only distribution on the planet that doesn't have support for MySQL 4.1, what's up with that ? Lack of interest from the community ? I see a 4.0 stable ebuild and 4.1 which has been masked but still can't understand why there isn't a stable ebuild for 4.1 ? Incidently this

[gentoo-user] Removing source packages

Hi all, I am using Gentoo on a laptop which does not have a lot of free space. Now i want to free up some space and was considering removing some of the unpacked sources in portage (espacially the openoffice source, which takes quite a chunk of space). But what are the implications of this? If i
