Back to my hole. Really, the same here, altho I appreciated them when I got my netbook, an= d=20 wanted to put Gentoo on it. Unfortunately, that's about the time the sit= e=20 did its disappearing act, and most of the information I could Google, etc= ,=20 pointed back to the wiki that wasn't there any more! =3D:^( But the Arch-Linux forum thread and then wiki came to the rescue, tho I=20 had to adapt some of what it said a bit more. And the gentoo-wiki page i= s=20 back up, now, tho I'm not sure how it compares to what was there before=20 the off-lining. But I'm more a newsgroups and mailing list person, not so comfortable wit= h=20 web forums or wikis. Perhaps that'll change with an official Gentoo wiki= ,=20 perhaps not, but that's why I've not volunteered for it tho I support the= =20 idea. I don't want to pledge to help and then never get the properly=20 rounded tuit. Better to discover that tuit by accident, and be there,=20 then pledge to be there, and not. But I did REALLY miss them with the netbook info, that's for sure, and I=20 definitely appreciate both the Gentoo wiki (after its return) and the Arc= h=20 wiki for the info I was able to use, even more since it wasn't available=20 for awhile! --=20 Duncan - List replies preferred.
