I hesitated to file a bug, because my desktop is running mdev instead |
23 |
of udev (just fine thank, you), and it might not be supported. I've |

removed module-init-tools. I have virtual/modutils-0 and |
25 |
sys-apps/kmod-12-r1 installed. Here's what happens... |

[d531][waltdnes][~] emerge -pv1 virtual/modutils |
