no, it is just any indication that nobody wants to wade trought thousands of messages and stupid forum posting. OF COURSE gentoo was 'fast' at the beginning. When there is nothing, everything added is a huge step forward. If you are using a ~arch system, you'll see douzends of new packages every single day. Is that slow? And FreeBSD: because of some needed kernel changes that are known for literally years but have not been made so far, FreeBSD on AMD64 has no nvidia support. So much about moving 'fast'. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
