| Also the posting dialog box all of the sudden seems to adjusts to my screen resolution rather than having a fixed width. |

Oh, and two very vestigial features disappeared in the super-duper upgrade:
- IMG button in the New post / Edit post forms.
- The "View posts made within the last 24 hours" feature.

Now, it's google friendly. Google didn't follow the old links, therefore the forum wasn't fully indexed. Hopefully this changes now and site:forums.gentoo.org <searchterm> brings up better results. |

Wildcard searches were also disabled ages ago (for performance reasons I gather), yet after this upgrade the search form still incorrectly claims you can "use * as a wildcard for partial matches". |

Time for either the OP or the mods to rename this topic? Seems to have grown beyond the scope of the original post.  _________________ Murphy's Law of Gentoo installation: If a compile can fail, it will.
