Glutton for punishment are we? I used to use it and got sick of stuff breaking on me during updates (if Walter doesn't like dealing with updates on Ubuntu, I'd be shocked if he liked dealing with updates on Gentoo). I use Arch these days, since it provides a lot of the benefits of Gentoo without anywhere near as many of the headaches. But if I had to recommend an easy-to-use distro, I'd recommend OpenSuSE, but as with all such things, YMMV. For better or worse, Ubuntu is very popular. - Jonathan M Davis
