Hello all. Every time I rebuild my kernel, I have to remember to rebuild all the drivers that aren't included in my kernel. I stick some notes in a file called /root/after-kernel Here's my current one now: nvidia v4l-dvb modprobe -rv saa7134 && modprobe -rv saa7134_dvb cd /root/v4l-dvb make ; make install modprobe -v saa7134 card=101 && modprobe -v saa7134_dvb net-wireless/rt2500 sys-fs/fuse As you can see, it's just notes for me to help me remember, so that I don't end up forgetting something, and having part of my system (my TV recording app) not working. It made me think - this could be added to /etc/portage - say /etc/portage/package.notes: sys-kernel/gentoo-sources: Do this. Do that. Do the other. dev-libs/openssl: Don't forget to rebuild foo I know about revdep, but you see the point. Then, when I emerged gentoo-sources, it could display my notes to me to remind me. Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce

No, you don't have to remember anything. emerge module-rebuild; module-rebuild populate; module-rebuild rebuild :) Portage is a package manager, not an application for making notes.
