compiled for 6.8.99.8 ? perhaps you should recompile the ati-driver.
Well, besides that: i assume, that you don't want the latest
alpha/beta/rc-version of xorg, but there are more and more masked
xorg-related packages of that kind in portage. xorg 7.0 is already

If so, did it work? And what did you do?

eth1 with only an IPv4 address and no IPv6 address.
Any suggestions?

Saying AUTO=yes in /etc/conf.d/ifplugd is one way to keep the interface
up - and at least for

Well, the proper sollution is: set AUTO="yes" in /etc/conf.d/ifplugd,
and ifplugd sets the interface to "up" automatically.

Thank you. That was a big help, but somehow disappointing.
I would rather like, if ifplugd would automatically do the "ifconfig up"

Can you perform those three steps with your network card?

That is simply annoying, that the Linux-Kernel resets DMA.

You would habe to install grub into the MBR of all drives part of md0.
GRUB cannot be installed into the boot-sector of a partition.

afaik, these AVM Fritz!Card DSL-cards support PPPoA/PPPoATM, and afaik

Does somebody know, how to make pppd/capi use PPPoA instead of PPPoE?
