 +===== ALSA Sound card =====
 +Add the hda-intel to /etc/make.conf
 +  ALSA_CARDS="hda-intel"
 +And config the kernel options fo intel hda,after these I think it should work well,but wtf,it is no sound.I almost use alsa-mixer to set all the values to the largest,but useless.
  
 +Then one day,I use the System->Volume Control,I found some settings are set to mute,that is the problem,after correct,it works well,so strange.

 +==== ALSA Settings ====
 +Refer to [[http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/alsa-guide.xml]]

 +  emerge alsa-utils
 +  rc-update add alsasound boot
 +  gpasswd -a <username> audio 
 +  
 +===== aticonfig =====
 +When I upgrade the kernel to 3.3.8,it can't startx correctly,after google search,need do the aticonfig to generate the /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
 +  aticonfig --initial

 +Touchpad:The touchpad works flawlessly with xf86-input-mtrack.

 +http://dentifrice.poivron.org/laptops/macbookpro8,2/
 +
 +  emerge x11-drivers/xf86-input-mtrack
 +  
 +Append section to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
 +<code>
 +Section "InputClass"
 + MatchIsTouchpad "true"
 + Identifier      "Touchpads"
 + Driver          "mtrack"

 +
 +===== Fix boot after reinstall Mac OS X  =====
 +1.Of course,first should install rEFIt,and sync the MBR partition list.
 +
 +2.Fix the grub command,it is really strange,after the new install of Mac OS X,the sda5 has been changed to sda4,so need update all related partition index by -1.
 +<code>
 +splashimage=(hd0,3)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
 +#Now config
 +title Gentoo Linux root (hd0,3) root=/dev/sda4 /boot/kernel-3.3.8 
 +root (hd0,3)
 +kernel /boot/kernel-3.3.8 root=/dev/sda4
 +
 +#The previous config
 +title Gentoo Linux root (hd0,4) root=/dev/sda5 /boot/kernel-3.3.8 
 +root (hd0,4)
 +kernel /boot/kernel-3.3.8 root=/dev/sda5
 +</code>
 +
 +And the fstab also need update:
 +<code>
 +# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
 +/dev/sda4              /           ext4            noatime         0 0
 +#/dev/sda4 /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 1 2
 +/dev/sda3 /home ext4 noatime 0 1
 +#/dev/SWAP none swap sw 0 0
 +/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro 0 0
 +/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0
