I don't know anything about appgen, but gentoo does have ebuilds for lprng, if you prefer that to cups (several cups releases are badly borken). I've never used lprng, but I do have a working cups. The only bleeding edge aspect to this system is plugins. The usual netscape/mozilla plugins haven't caught up with gcc 3.2 yet. Some users have reported a successful workaround that requires getting and compiling the sun java sources, but I haven't tried that. I presume that xterm works, but I normally use aterm. kde 3.x and gnome 2 are about as stable as these behemoths ever get. I use xfce or icewm. There are a lot of postings and gentoo doco about pmcia. Some have success; some have problems. I don't have a laptop. It seems to me that laptop anything is still pretty much a crap shoot on most distros.
