9 I asked you once before: "is Gentoo the right choice for you?"
10 With all the posts you've made on this mailinglist since I asked this

19 You know what this represents?
20 This represents your system "crying out" for maintenance!
21 Now thoroughly read the following links

23 http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=4
24 http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_etc-update
25 http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_dispatch-conf
26
27 And update your config files before you even start to think about anything
28 else.
