I wish GentooX supported Native VGA!

any of you guys used 128 meg on gentoox, does it really make installing / updating much quicker?

are there any comparisons of a 64 meg and a 128 meg gentoox installation

Just a little side note, I use Gentoo on my desktop now and it does rock but it's a bitch to setup if you're a windows boy like me.

I still dual boot to XP but not for much longer there's less and less reason. (Half life 2 is the only reason I haven't already gone to gentoo full time)

But if I was to setup a linux xbox now I would use xebian probably (Except of course I am slowly getting a lot better with gentoo).

I don't use linux on the box anymore as it's just too painful (Damn your M$ why didn't you put 128meg in the xbox.)

I run fedora core 3. I have it on a TSOPed to cromwell v1.0. It runs as a headless server. I'm pretty much a red hat/fedora guy. I've tried mandrake back in the day, I've run debian, I've used xebian. I do not get the whole gentoo complie your code idiology. I'd rather know that redhat is acitve patching bugs and security hole in the software I'm using.

How about some more voters.

Since all the distros have been updated a few times since this poll opened

Bit of a no brainer for me

My 2 cents:

Debian = took 2 months, 10-15 broken installs trying to make it install basic Linux programs (missing libraries, laundry list of other things).

Gentoox = 1 day, 1 install and had it doing everything I couldnt get Debian to do. I have been running it for about a month now with no trouble at all.

Many thanks to shallax

Again, just my 2 cents.
