Stupid French Cars!!

So shortly following the purchase of my new car, I was driving home at a very reasonable speed, when all of a sudden a newly passed driver in a citroen ax came around the blind corner too fast hitting the car in front of me. So, I swerved to not get hit by the spinning AX, and bits of the cars were flying all over my bonet.

I rang 999, done the normal stuff – luckily everyone was completely fine. Anyways, checking the damage to my car and it was nothing worth crying over I left and went home. While at home I saw that it had ripped big chunks out of my paintwork all over my bonet, door panels and bumpers.
After spending a good half an hour on the phone to a police officer dealing with the accident, I think he finally believed me and so I took it to the local station so that they could check it. Now all I need to wait for is something to happen to pay for the damage to be repaired before it starts to rust!

And to add to the annoyance, the only reason I drove away from home in the first place was to pick something up from a shop which rang me to say something I wanted was in, only to find by the time I got there they were mistaken!

So, anyways, Gentoo stuffs.
kernel-2 changes have gone in to better accomodate KV_EXTRA and family.
linux-mod changes have gone into the tree to take over the pcmcia work from pcmcia.eclass, and pcmcia-cs changes will be made soon.

instead of it now working out and patching a load of odd pcmcia sources, it just tarballs up the pcmcia-cs sources at build time, and uses that for the future. Please please please dont delete /usr/src/pcmcia/pcmcia-cs-build-env.tbz2 once these changes go in or you might experience problems 🙂

Aside from that, nothing new to report.
