(I do not use the Gentoo-VDR, because I migrated from Suse to Gentoo and used to compile VDR myself. But there should be no problems...) The main advantage of Gentoo: You are not forced to do a classical migration from version X to Y (eg. Suse 9.0 to 9.1). You can update your Linux whenever you want/need in whole or in part. I find this very useful, because my VDR can not have long downtimes. No VDR - no TV, you know :-) Stephan. -- loescher@xxxxxx http://www.loescher-online.de/ Try LEO: http://www.leo.org/
