Re: [PLUG] Please Join - FW: Your Linux Meetup is cancelled


Gentoo? *perk*

If you need more Gentoo-capable warm bodies for a Gentoo-centric installfest, I'm there.

A thought, though: The semi-official preferred install method for Gentoo involves recompiling everything, or a significant subset thereof. An installfest might need to be multi-day, to allow that, or a restriction be made that everyone has to use the GRP (Gentoo Reference Packages, precompiled base system) for initial install, and recompile at home.

I'm on FN, BTW, but not #plug. I suppose I should add it to my join list.

I like the idea of an occasional meeting aside from the already
scheduled PLUG meetings. Unfortunately, I rarely get to the PLUG
meetings because of my crazy schedule and the distance I have to
travel (from Newark, DE).

If you need ideas, here's one...Install Fest!
Like other people, I would benefit greatly from a meeting that
dealt specifically with a Gentoo install. I'm currently running
RH9 on my Toshiba laptop but I'd love to get Gentoo installed
and configured correctly for this machine. Although I installed
Gentoo a few weeks ago I wasn't able to completely figure out all
the configuration issues so I had to give up and reinstall RH9.
I would love to use Gentoo though.

Off Topic...
Does anyone use the Freenode IRC channel? I go in there from time
to time but I never see anyone chatting. And yes, at times I've
waited hours to see if there was any activity.

Thank you.

There is a really good reason why the linux meetup doesn't
have many people. It's the day before the PLUG meeting. ;)

MCT and I discussed this one time. It's just one of those
things that doesn't work out in life.
