Grip would sometimes completely freeze and zombie to the point where kill -9 would not do anything. It all started after changing disks sometime before ripping and after inserting the disk. Alot of times it shows it accessing the network and then freeze up. On top of this all I cannot open my CDrom try from the external button anymore sense using grip. I have to run eject command to even open the tray and the drive is not mounted. I do not think grip should be considered Stable on AMD64. Keyword should be changed to ~amd64. #emerge --info grip# Portage 2.0.54 (default-linux/amd64/2005.1, gcc-3.4.5, glibc-2.3.5-r2, 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-gentoo-r7 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 2800+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=k8 -Os -pipe" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share /config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=k8 -Os -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.osuosl.org/ ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo ftp://mirror.iawnet.sandia.gov/pub/gentoo/" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="amd64 X aac aalib alsa apache2 audacious audiofile avi bcmath berkdb bidi bindist bitmap-fonts bonobo bzip2 calendar canna cdparanoia cdr cli cpudetection crypt cups curl dga dri dts dv dvd dvdr dvdread edl eds effects emboss encode esd ethereal exif expat fam ffmpeg flac foomaticdb fortran freetds gcj gd gif glut gmp gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile icq idn imagemagick imlib inkjar ipv6 isdnlog jack java jpeg jpeg2k kde lcms libcaca libwww live lua lzo lzw lzw-tiff mad matroska memlimit migemo mime mng modplug motif mozilla mp3 mpeg msn musepack mysql mythtv nas ncurses nls nvidia objc objc++ offensive ogg oggvorbis openal opengl oscar oss pam pcre pdflib perl php png pppd python qt quicktime readline rtc scanner sdl sid slp sndfile spell ssl svg tcltk tcpd test tetex theora tiff timidity truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode usb v4l v4l2 vcd vorbis wma xanim xine xml xml2 xpm xprint xv xvid xvmc yahoo zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, MAKEOPTS
