Hi Gentoo Hackers, |

I noticed a few things you may want to know about. |
| 4 |
|

First, desktop doc seems slightly out of date. For example, KDE 2.2.1 doesn't require the '--login' fix anymore. I merged KDE 2.2.1 yesterday! Man, it's the sweetest thing I've seen, in terms of eye candy. For some weird reason it doesn't see all my fonts though. |

Second, when I had do update /etc/init.d/xdm as per desktop docs, I noticed that both |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
/etc/rc.d/config/basic |
| 10 |
/etc/rc.d/config/functions |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
are missing. I created the 'basic' file (first had to create 'config' dir though). But I have no idea what should go into 'functions' file. I noticed that some scripts complain about 'doservice' function being undefined. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Third, I was poking around various directories and I noticed some symlinks that point to nowhere, as you can see from grep's output: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
grep: /usr/lib/libtk.a: No such file or directory |
| 17 |
grep: /usr/lib/libtcl.a: No such file or directory |
| 18 |
grep: /usr/man/man8/in.telnetd.8.gz: No such file or directory |
| 19 |
grep: /usr/share/man/man8/in.telnetd.8.gz: No such file or directory |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
ls -l on those files shows: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Oct 7 21:30 /usr/lib/libtk.a -> /usr/lib/libtk8.4.a |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Oct 7 21:30 /usr/lib/libtcl.a -> /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.a |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Oct 7 08:48 /usr/man/man8/in.telnetd.8.gz -> telentd.8.gz |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Oct 7 08:48 /usr/share/man/man8/in.telnetd.8.gz -> telentd.8.gz |

Also, regarding my depmod problem -- I am still having it. Here is what I see when I do depmod -a: |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.10/kernel/drivers/block/nbd.o |

I see the same depmod output every time I boot into Gentoo. |
