However, once you have a configuration that is working as desired, I
recommend a full rebuild (just one last one! belt *and* suspenders as
they say), and strongly recommend a reboot. In theory they're
unnecessary, but I've heard of people getting weird behavior due to
glitches in what the kernel thinks is available to it. (Not since
early 2.4, though.)
