Description Tim Haughton 2004-03-29 23:32:10 UTC
Not sure if this is a bug with the ebuild or not. My feeling is not, but I'll start here. 

I have an IBM thinkpad T40. The intel 810 module is compiled into the kernel, and that is the module that works from Knoppix. When trying to emerge - I get this:

Has somethinf gone awry in the installation of the base system? Or is this a genuine ebuild bug. This is halting my 'emerge gnome', so I'm guessing that even without a sound card it should build. Here's my emerge info:

Comment 1 Tim Haughton 2004-03-30 04:05:55 UTC
Please ignore. I'd explicitly removed the linux-headers package (long story) and not explicitly remerged them, and the 'emerge gnome' order or doing things didn't want to install the linux-headers until later in the process.

linux-headers are remerged now and the problem has mysteriously vanished :)
