![]() This forum actually has one of the best linux sections in its kind. I'm really glad for all the time by the users inputing their opinion and knowledge. I'm also glad of the approval and 'blessings' of the mods for this section.

![]() I don't think the liveDVD works all that great.I usually use the minimal CD. Gentoo's not that hard to install really.I've used Ubuntu 8.04 and liked it.I stayed with Gentoo because I could get my media codecs and video card drivers working easier.

![]() Around 6-8 seconds.
Yeah, almost, nvidia driver is still a binary blob.So it's not compiled from source.Everything else is though.To get a complete KDE4 desktop built takes about 13 hours on my system.I've got an AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ @ 3Ghz, 4GB DDR2 800 RAM, Gigabyte GA-M55SLI-S4 motherboard, and a pair of EVGA 8800 GTS 640MB graphics cards running in SLI.Not the latest or fastest, but still pretty good for all I need. |
