Good afternoon all, During the last few days I've managed my first Gentoo install. I now have pretty much everything I need.
Gentoo base fetchmail mutt ssh kde still working on courier ... One of the finest learning experiences I can remember. The decision to walk away from Suse was not easy, as she had been my distribution of choice for more than a year. But because of the direction I think they're heading, I decided it was time. Just as I had with Red Hat a year earlier. It wasn't really to difficult to pick Gentoo, although Debian did cross my mind, because I felt the need to build from scratch and see how much more knowledge I could cram into the gray matter. <snipped my own babbling> Major thanks to the developers for an excellent product and excellent documentation. Major thanks to all who contribute to this newsgroup for having previously answered most of the questions I had. Posters and respondents alike. Major thanks to marc.theaimsgroup.com for providing archives of this list. (As well as most other lists that are worthwhile) And finally, thanks to Google.
