But don't feel like you have to leave here just because you now use Debian more :-) This is one of the most knowledgeable and helpful user groups around, and apart from portage, baselayout and a few other odd things, pretty much every question you could ask here can be applicable everywhere else. Watch him slowly convert them over to Gentoo. o_O Then he'll be back and asking who has a server like theirs. lol Good luck dude!! LOL, thanks for the nice thoughts guys - much appreciated! Mark

Best wishes for your Debian experience - please report back in the future with a comparison between the two. The slots and portage make it relatively painless to combine stable and testing on Gentoo and from the little experience that I have with Debian, you got to be Klaus Knopper to get even close. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Quoting Mark Kirkwood : Due to a new work situation where extensive use is made of Debian, I feel the need to have a Debian-based play server. This unfortunately means my trusty Gentoo box is to be sacrificed :-( At work we abuse Ubuntu and that means I need to know it by heart, but I didn't trash my Gentoo install with that brainsucker. I just emerged virtualbox :-P Best wishes Best wishes to you too and good luck in your new job/position! Mark Best regards, Norberto This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
[gentoo-user] Thanks and bye for now
Due to a new work situation where extensive use is made of Debian, I feel the need to have a Debian-based play server. This unfortunately means my trusty Gentoo box is to be sacrificed :-( Thanks for the help I have received over the last few years (think I joined in 2005). I have enjoyed being part of the Gentoo community, and hope to be back alter sometime. Best wishes Mark
