ok so i am messing about with gentoo, but i have no clue what use flags to use
(Usually, (the number of processors + 1) is a good value)
mybox ~ # echo 'MAKEOPTS="-j2"' >> /etc/make.conf
so for a p4m 1.8 that should be j2 as shown, for a dual core j3 and quad core j5 ?
cflags and use flags are confusing the hell out of me though, are they really required ?
