I confirm the same problem on my machine. I've looked at the Gentoo
page. Is recompiling the kernel nontrivial? It sounds like it. I
can't find above path on my YDL 3.0.
I guess I'll have to search for myself. I'm getting a little drained
from spending so much time reconfiguring parameters to make a machine
run properly. Does it ever get less time consuming?
