Personally, I think all you need to do is to ensure that the kernel has all the drivers it needs to speak to the new mobo. Other members of the @world set relies on the drivers in the kernel. But I don't use any GUI or audio; if you're using a GUI and/or audio, you might also have to re-emerge the relevant bits. BSTS: just re-emerge @world :-) Rgds, --
