I have used Debian for the last 3-4 years (since I got fed up by Redhats "missing dependencies"), and it's still on my main machine. However, my (two) new machines, one of which is a laptop, runs Gentoo. The speed difference isn't that great, compiling everything takes a long time, but for some reason I feel more at home with Gentoo. They are the only Linux distros for me - Gentoo on a fast machine with lots of ram, Debian on anyting smaller. -- Hilsen Harald. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
