Ok, I installed Sabayon 5.

So far... I love it ! Smile

As for the heat issue... There is actually an app in the toolbar (you need to add it, it's not there by default)
CPUFREQ I believe, and you can scale your cores individually. I set mine to "On Demand".
Heat is totally gone now.

Options are 2Ghz (my max) 1.73, 1.3, 1, Powersave, On Demand, Performance

By default it's at max, meaning my CPU would run at 2Ghz constantly, even if nothing was running (dunno how that can be tho) and that was causing the heat issue.

I suppose on a tower, the heat issue might be different than on a laptop.

Smile

Still trying to get apache up and running with php5 and mysql.
Can't seem to find what I need to make it work.
I emerge'd apache, php and mysql, but apache can't find *php*.so

Gonna work on that this weekend.

Thanks for your help melloe.

I helped start Quebec's Francophone Gentoo help website.
Should've looked there before.

Toorox Joern Lindau has announced the release of Toorox 05.2010, a Gentoo-based live DVD featuring the latest KDE 4 desktop and a graphical system installer: "Toorox 05.2010. A new version has been finished; it contains the Linux kernel 2.6.33. The KDE desktop environment has been updated to the recent version 4.4.3. All KDE 3 applications and dependencies have been removed. KlamAV has been replaced by ClamTk and K3b has been updated to the latest Qt 4 RC version. Guarddog and kdetv have been removed. Also umtsmon has been removed, but now the complete network configuration and Internet connection is handled by NetworkManager and you can establish a mobile connection via nm-applet. Nearly all packages have been updated to the latest version. The binary ATI driver (fglrx) still doesn't support the latest X.Org Server 1.8 so this release contains version 1.7.6."
