Also, if you're upgrading a number of large packages, it can help to have an estimate of how long you'll be compiling: $ emerge -pNuD world | genlop -p Or you can use "emerge --quiet-build=y" if you'd like to hide all the build output and only have Portage display what the currently compiling package(s) are. You can still tail the build logs in /var/tmp/portage/*/*/build.log to watch what's going on. Cheers, Bryan
