That would be ideal. I'm sure you will like the 'portage' system as much as we (the gentoo hordes) do.
Note that the portage system already includes 'hotplug' and 'udev' but possibly lagging behind a bit: hotplug-20030805-r3 and udev-011.
I have installed them both but just have not been able to get udev working yet -- I don't yet understand the problems well enough to tell you why, unfortutately. (udev is still marked 'experimental' so I'm probably omitting important steps somewhere.)
If you could get udev working in gentoo you would become an instant hero rather than the target of nasty emails. Think of how great that would be for your New Year! We would become the wind beneath your wings instead of the rotten tomatoes in your mailbox ;0) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
