On the (old) topic of gentoo, I ust saw another
install option -
sabayonlinux (http://www.sabayonlinux.org) which seems to actually be
quite usable and updated. I'll try it and see if it can easily be used
with the pro audio overlay.
It's just a normal Gentoo install with an overlay for their additional stuff.
I'm running it on the machine I'm using to post this and I use the pro-audio
overlay.
TBH I wasn't overwhelmed by it, hopefully the new version is better. :) Ended
up having to recompile kmail to get IMAP to work, it didn't set up my
overlays properly, installed a bunch of bloatware for me, etc. I removed the
Sabayon and XGL overlays from my system and am happily running Gentoo now. :)
Despite this experience, I still prefer it to the GRP, so might look at it in
future as a means to get running quickly with Gentoo. :)
Best,
