There have been some changes to what's included in 'system' recently. After checking /usr/portage/profiles/base/packages & various 'virtuals' it seemed that pkg 'setserial' had been dropped from 'system', so after trying 'qpkg -I -q setserial' without anything listed, I unmerged it (after having a quick look at its man file); I also deleted 'serial' from /etc/init.d , which seemed unnecessary now. The system rebooted, but there was a series of warning messages, which disappeared after I remerged 'setserial' & rebooted again.
What is 'setserial' needed for ? If its omission causes warnings, why has it been dropped from 'system' ? Anyone have useful info ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
