The Ubuntu Forums have grown tremendously over the years. While we regret that we are discontinuing our Other OS Talk category, this gives us an opportunity to help other Linux distributions grow by directing traffic to the websites of these distributions.

Here is a list of the official websites for the operating systems that used to have individual forums here. We hope you are able to find further assistance from there. And finally, if you haven't yet found what you are looking for, we suggest you look for information on the DistroWatch website or you might try the multi-distribution LinuxQuestions forum.

Wow. I might have to take another look. Hopefully, they fixed the installer.

Really? How bad is it? I really don't see the point of emerging out of a stage 3 install...it ties up my core system for too long, and I have yet to have a successful install that allowed me to get to KDE or Gnome after the endless compile. Complete waste of time to my mind, especially when Sabayon is out there providing a competing product that is easier to install and gets you to the same end result.

Exactly. It's a waste of time, in my mind, to use the Gentoo live CD now that Sabayon Linux exists.

Re: Gentoo 2007 is out
Finally, this means I can FINALLY install it on my laptop; The 2.6.16 kernel on 2006.1 didn't support my ethernet (Realtek) well enough for me to get a connection. Maybe now I'll be able to install Gentoo properly

Hehe, perfect timing. I decided to download Gentoo and try it out. Then I realized they just released a new version

I've always thought of Gentoo as a version-less distro.

It is rolling release. All a new release means is that there is a new installer available.
