Or there are rolling-update distros, like Gentoo (if it's still around,a
and still works, that way). Where everything installed is updated, as
needs be, bit by bit. So, what was installed 4 years ago, is never an
out-of-date system.
PCLinuxOs is a rolling release that is active. It is quite conservative,
since the 64-bit version is only in "testing" at the moment. The
present kernel in use, just updated to, is 3.2.18. It's pretty complete,
and uses KDE, so rpm installs off the Internet work, even tho they
are deprecated by the devs, who think you should only use those
things in their approved repos. I have been using this distro since
summer of 2010, and I like it.There is a forum, but no mailing list,
AFAIK.
