Hey, why not... Only saw one other Mandraker so far.

MDK 10 Community (mostly cooker packages though)
2.6.7-2mdk (mostly stock kernel with attempts at LIRC support)
xorg-6.7.0-0.2.3mdk (waiting for 6.8 to ripen in mdk)
fluxbox 0.9.8 (too lazy to install from cvs)
nvidia drivers 1.0.6111

Long live fluxbox and windowmaker! (sure, I still use kde 3.2.2 and gnome 2.6.1 for applications but not the desktop environment...)

I tried gentoo on my laptop, and it is very impressive these days - just too tedious to set up for my primary system. Maybe on the next upgrade I can go the way of either Debian or Gentoo and streamline my system more. RPMs can be a major pain in the backside.

I used Gentoo for about a year before trying Debian. Both feel exactly the same in performance, have mostly the same bleeding edge packages but I don't have to wait through compiles with Debian :)

I also tried Ubuntu Warty recently. Wasn't very impressed, I could setup Debian similary in an hour, without applications I don't want (ex. OpenOffice)
