Oh, in that case, try apt-get install emerge

and ruin this pacman thing i have going now?

I installed Arch Linux today.

Weeeeeee!

Well done. I never had the commitment to actually do this. I think I have an installer, but I started it once, and got scared.

Well, I did it again today. This time on a real machine, not in VBox. I even succeeded to preserve old Win XP boot record and make GRUB use it as default.

(Last time I tried installing an operating system was in 2009. And that's how I got stuck on Ubuntu for three years.

Welcome to all newcomers.

Now that we're celebrating the summer solstice let me offer some cava and coca de Sant Joan.

I'M BAAAAACCKKKKK!

Don't you have Synaptic or something as default in Ubuntu?

I tried SUSE but I had problems with it running crazy slow (on my VM) or not starting (on my second box).

Synaptic isn't even installed in Ubuntu anymore. It's still in the repos, but it's been sent to the Not Automatically Installed pile.

At any rate, Synaptic is using a washing machine, apt-get is handwashing clothing.

Wow. Such mono, very culture. Part of the joy of distros is being able to put up with all of them at once. Anthologica runs SUSE, CM.net runs Arch, and my work machines are (mostly) Ubuntu... Except for SciNet, which is CentOS. Out of all the systems I've used at worked with, I think SLES (Enterprise SUSE) is the only truly awful one; their repos aren't quite complete enough to accomplish arbitrary tasks.

I'm probably going with LMDE next time I reinstall my system, having gone from Mint for a very long time to Ubuntu recently.

I wish I had that option. They're all Windows XP or 7. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO ENTER UNICODE CHARACTERS FFS AND THIS IS TWENTY-FOURTEEN

My ancient netbook runs Mint. Generally I like it, but it might not be light enough for that computer.
