<div dir=ltr>I feel a bit 'bummed' out right now because I have been amped up on this LinuxMint kick for over a month now. I'll try n figure something out if I can. I had been considering Gentoo but then got overwhelmed but it still comes back to my mind. Thanks for your help with this situation. Happy Holidays to you as well. <img src="https://a.gfx.ms/Emoji_1F608.png" alt=Emoji class="ecxEmoji$1F608$AB7 ecxRenderedEmoji"><br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Paul,</div><div><br></div><div>If you are enjoying Linux Mint, then there is no need to move onto anything else. There is absolutely nothing wrong with using Linux Mint if it is working for you. I used Mint for about 18 months back around Linux Mint 13.

I have landed on Arch and have stuck with it since February this year and don't have any immediate plans to change my default.
