Thanks for the quick reply.
Should I post the init script here? Or is there a better place for that
sort of thing?
As a footnote, the mysql/php thing kind of sucks but that's the price
you pay for integration. :) I'm looking at rebuilding xfree 4.3.0 from
source for the second time in two days on my gentoo laptop (security
updates), though it handles the mysql/php problem quite nicely -- as
long as you've got hardware that handles lots of compiler time well. :)
Gentoo is a very interesting experiment in this arena but I think people
in general prefer convenience to ultimate flexibility (especially when
it costs in terms of convenience). I'm still on the fence on that point...
