Eh, I've been lurking here for ages, and I think I've posted something
in the range of 1 - 2 times ;)

Gentoo has really impressed me with one package in particular - frozen
bubble. On RH there was no way I could get this installed; either the
SDL rpms were inconsistant, or the PNG libs were too old, or a
combination of various other things stopped it from running :(

Gentoo .. emerge frozen-bubble, and it worked.

(And Gentoo has my SBLive! OEM working .. something RH8/9 couldnt do :>)
