Dear all, Even since I got a full time job back in September 2007, my time for TU duties has been limited. A few months ago I switched to a different DSL provider (since the previous one couldn't get their act together), and they gave me a PPPoE modem instead of a router, which I couldn't get to dial in on Arch Linux, which basically forced me to switch to something else, Ubuntu in this case (pppoeconf had it done in seconds). From then on it just went downhill. I kept updating and sometimes rebuilding packages on an Arch Linux installed on VirtualBox at work. However on each Ubuntu kernel upgrade it broke down and recently it seems to have done its last breath since it no longer boots after Arch Linux ran out of harddrive space while upgrading the kernel. I decided this is where it ends. I've really enjoyed Arch Linux while it last, and I think it really rocks for those who want to be always up to date and also easily package their own stuff, allowing for a convenient and complete management of all system files. However, frequent breaks and security problems (no doubt mostly my own fault) had already made me prefer other distributions on my laptop and server. I'll post my list of packages in a separate email. Thanks for several enjoyable years! Regards, Bjørn Lindeijer
