In system with a portage-2007-05-01, glibc-2.5, build with a gcc-4.1.1 compiler do not work tap0 (bridge) networking in VirtualBox-1.3.8. With NAT networking all is OK. Same system (portage, /etc/make.conf, /etc/portage/*, /etc/make.profile, kernel), build with gcc-3.4.6 do not have such problem. I do not like to rebuild gcc-4.1.1 system with gcc-3.4.6 because this would not give a problem package. Is there a simple method to check a tap0 interface (included in br0) ? Reproducible: Always
Maybe you could post some errors? 'Do not work' is not much useful to diagnose the problem... Also post emerge --info output.
hi, just tested again, virtualbox-1.3.8 (x86 machine) with: sys-devel/gcc-4.1.1-r3 sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2 sys-apps/portage-2.1.2.2 sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.9-r2 net-misc/bridge-utils-1.2 sys-apps/usermode-utilities-20040406-r1 i was able to setup a VM with Host interface tap0 and then surf the web using the vm. x-drum@storm ~ $ sudo brctl show: bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces br0 8000.0019b95cbaf5 no eth0 tap0 all the system (including virtualbox) was compiled with gcc-4.1.1 Please post some errors (as said in comment #1)

Guest OS can not get dhcp info from gateway. "emerge --info" some times later (cuurently work with gcc-3.4.6 system) PS: how to test tap0 without VirtualBox?

There was a file loss-corruption (power failure). emerge -ek world helped
