I have a spare partiton and want something to play with, I am looking for this distro I forgot the name of. It has some crazy name, and it's based off (related too?) gentoo only using an alternative source based package manager. Any help would be much appreciated.

Created by former Gentoo developers, also it is what all the cool kids are using today when GCC is configured like a screensaver.

Glad I could help :)

I remembered reading about it on the gentoo forums back when I used gentoo. Don't know why the OP would be interested in it as I've never meet a single person (outside the random few on the gentoo forums) who uses it.

Never heard of it. Also, what is this?

Pig/tiger/zebra crossover?

That thing is called Zebrapig and was conceived by one of our female devs (or rather: our *only* female dev ;) ).

It's a crossbreed between a zebra and a pig and, if that excuses it, was drawn on a napkin while said dev was drunk. ;-)

I was not exactly in favour of using it as our logo but, alas, the others were probably drunk, too, when they chose it. ;-)

LOL.
That's ok, as long as you were not drunk when you wrote the code.:biggrin:

Good luck.
