So, when it's doing its compile thing, does it ever have problems? It seems that a good chunk of the programs out there don't compile cleanly without some mods. Gentoo sounds cool, but I don't want to have to babysit the thing while everything is compiling.

I LOVE IT! Stable as ever, and pretty lightweight. I love their portage system. The install went great, but at least on my 900 Duron w/ 512mb RAM and 2 40GB hd's, it took about 24 hours to get a useable system, which included compiling teh kernel, x, kde and many utilities, as well as gcc.... gentoo rocks, just not for newbies.
