Hallo Benny!

 BP> systemd is default disabled on gentoo, so its completly optional

I didn't know that.  I might have to check that out someday.
  
 BP> friend showing 5.6 with som nice things with nvidia graphics
 BP> opensource support, it does not happend each day, i can give link
 BP> to it if i can find it again :)

I've read about that.  However out of all my current machines only one has an 
x16 pcie slot and I don't much care for the power requirements for those 
particular graphics cards.  Also if I were to populate that interface I would 
prefer a 4 slot nvme adapter over a graphics card.

 BP> i can not get 8 penguins on my huawei p30 pro, does that mean its
 BP> a bad phone ? :)

Yes.  :::evil grin:::

Would 8 penguins fit on the display?

 BP> but pkg upgrade works in a shell and openssh works aswell, and
 BP> lastly mc do nice colors aswell, hehe

I'd like to see that, not that it would interest me enough to actually buy one. 
 I have a neighbour who might given he cannot live without mc and owns and uses 
a smartphone.  I've heard the camera on there is reported to be the best there 
is.

 MK>>  Mind you I haven't tried 5.6 yet.  Probably tomorrow.

 BP> good plan

It is worth noting that the above kernel is booting from an nvme disk mounted 
in a usb 3.1 external case.  No penguins yet but I am still working on it.  As 
is it is absolutely fantastic.  :-)

Het leven is goed,
Maurice
