Please do not complain that you cannot duplicate my work if you are not |
| 7 |
using an identical environment. |

It is in the documentation. Did you install catalyst with USE="doc |
| 15 |
examples"? If not, I suggest you do so and start looking at the example |
| 16 |
spec files, along with the documentation. The example spec files, |
| 17 |
in /usr/share/doc/catalyst-$ver/examples, are up-to-date and have all |
| 18 |
the options listed. |

Use the example ebuild in /usr/share/doc/catalyst-$ver/examples, rather |
| 29 |
than this out-of-date document. |

Honestly, I would also avoid the forums, as they have been anywhere from |
| 35 |
100% correct to 100% wrong in how to do things. It is best to use the |
| 36 |
authoritative sources for information, which currently is this list, |
| 37 |
which has the catalyst developers on it, and also the examples installed |
| 38 |
via the catalyst ebuild. |

Generally, if a problem is similar, then it is the same. As for |
| 45 |
understanding the problems/solutions, that will come with time. |
| 46 |
Catalyst is a fairly complex piece of software. Unfortunately, with |
| 47 |
flexibility, comes complexity. |

Honestly, the best way is via livecd/use, rather than a portage |
| 59 |
configuration directory. |
