But, one thing about kmod is that you can turn off the command line |

portions of it completely on a monolythic system since udev just uses |

the library. That is actually the main reason we are transitioning over |

You do that by putting the following in /etc/portage/package.use: |

sys-apps/kmod -compat -tools |
