Hi peeps, |

|
3 |
If you're as annoyed as I am about having to wait 5 seconds to reload your |
4 |
dhcp connection, or if you just want to try out new wild & bizarre stuff |
5 |
;-), please apply the patch mentioned in bug #17378. |
6 |
( http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17378 ) |

8 |
Installation instructions: |
9 |
- download the patch (click on second try) |
10 |
- as root, cd to /etc/init.d |
11 |
- run patch -p0 < [where you saved the patch] |
12 |
|
13 |
Testing it: |
14 |
- before you patch it, restart your network interface (must be running |
15 |
dhcp): /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart |
16 |
If you are testing this on a different interface you'll have to copy the |
17 |
file. |
18 |
- get yourself all worked up about having to wait so long :) |
19 |
- install the patch |
20 |
- restart your network interface |
21 |
- get that warm fuzzy feeling you get every time you realize that Gentoo |
22 |
really /is/ the best thing since sliced bread :) |
23 |
- report your successful test on the bug. |
24 |
|
25 |
It really does work perfectly for me, and it really should work perfectly |
26 |
for everyone else, so, if it does work for you, please update the bug with |
27 |
your comments so it can be included in the standard baselayout. |
