After following the thread for a while, to how it would unfold, I still don't know why you picked Sabayon (I had never heard of it before this). <div><br></div><div>I was in the same position as you, once. I wouldn't run testing on my desktop because freezes keep it broken for a long time, and I was tired of keeping up with Sid. I switched to Arch Linux. Arch is the way to go in my opinion. The package managent is relatively familiar to a Debian user, but easier to build packages for and to use.<span></span><br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Running Debian Sid for a desktop. Getting tired (after

Debian is the one true Linux way), but does anybody have experience with this
distro?<u></u><u></u></p>
