Posted by timothy on from the now-that's-an-ecosystem dept.

safeness writes "Gentoo 2005.1 was released yesterday. Included in its release is an additional experimental LiveCD with the long awaited graphical installer. Now there's one less reason for your friends to switch to Gentoo! Get it here!" And darthcamaro writes "Hard to tell from the change log what's new ... but this story on internetnews.com notes new installation hardware support and WiFi."

    Now there's one less reason for your friends to switch to Gentoo!

    Indeed! A couple more features and I'll be ready to switch back to Fedora.

    No way in hell am I going to recompile the OS every time I boot up. Do I look like I have that kind of time in my life? /me checks posting history.

    Never mind. Carry on.

    but somehow, putting a CD with an "experimental Gentoo" Release on it into my computer sounds just as fascinating and fun as open hearth surgery in nanibia or landing a space shuttle with chocolade heathshields...

    Are you kidding? The People's Imaginary Republic of Nanibia has some kick ass hearth surgeons. They came by Mom's place yesterday. We thought that fireplace was done for but after a double Chimney bypass it was roaring again we were all making Space Shuttle Heatshield Smores in celebration.
