Everything you'll ever need to know about Gentoo
right here.

lol so true, you have to compile almost everything from source. I think I need to heed the advice given to me from a big Nix guy. When everything is all said and done, and you have the machine the way you want it, sans any performance tweaks you like to do, leave it alone!.
When it works, it works. When you start messing with things you dont know, or don't understand you'll break it.
Well I learn by trial and error lol, but maybe he's right?
