I'm getting a laptop soon. Not the latest model, but reasonably useable (aiming for somewhere around 800 MHz, 256 meg).
I'm using Gentoo on my desktop machine and I like it. I wonder if any of you have opinions on Gentoo on a laptop. I realize that the usual set-aside-a-day-to-compile-kde rules apply, but other than that, is Gentoo a wise choise for laptops? My theory is that as Gentoo is very customizable, and as you _have_ to compile your own kernel, the odds that you're gonna get your hardware working is good. Any comments? Or does anyone have good experiences with other distros on laptops? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
