Bugzilla Bug 194436

Seems to be caused by the args to kmem_cache_create changing in 2.6.23.

can you please try this ebuild?

 * Found kernel source directory:
 *     /usr/src/linux
 * Found kernel object directory:
 *     /lib/modules/2.6.23-rc7/build
 * Found sources for kernel version:
 *     2.6.23-rc7
 * Checking for suitable kernel configuration options...
 *   You need to build the FUSE module from the kernel source, because your
kernel is too new
 * Please check to make sure these options are set correctly.
 * Failure to do so may cause unexpected problems.
 * Once you have satisfied these options, please try merging
 * this package again.

You need to build the FUSE module from the kernel source, because your
kernel is too new

maybe I was not obvious enough :((

Can you suggest an alternative Text that you would understand?

Yeah, I got that part. :p I just thought maybe there was something else to the
ebuild you posted, since surely you wouldn't go through the trouble of posting
a modified ebuild just to tell me that. 

Well, it's working now in any case.

well, I posted it for later committing it. I committed it now :) thanks
