Thanks Colin, I've (unfortunately) already compiled my system. Can I |
| 15 |
re-compile everything with: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
# emerge --update --ask --deep --verbose --newuse --tree world |
| 18 |
|

The reason I'm looking into this is Kino keeps crashing, as do other data |
| 20 |
intensive, high CPU applications. |
