Hmmmm interesting. my back ground has been Redhat4.2 to Redhat7.0 I migrated to Mandrake 8 and stopped at Mandrake 10. I Found Debian install horrible and I didn't like it. I Play with SuSE due to work requirements.
The reason why I moved away from the above was so that I could use Enlightenment on all my systems. I hate KDE and Gnome as a window managers, I wanted fast graphics and unique looking interfaces, if I wanted my system to behave like windows I would have installed windows, and KDE and gnome behave just like windows.
I have been using Gentoo at home for the last 2 years. I have never had problems as described in the article. To me it appears the author did not follow the manuals as they are intended. I read the manuals, and followed them step by step and have had flawless installs, especially on my MythTV server. I have had less greif installing Gentoo and configuring my HDTV card than with Redhat and Mandrake.
