mmmmm i have most of it done, at the moment i'm at work and forgot to enable ssh on the install so i gotta wait to get home, all i gotta do is setup grub pretty much and i think i'm golden.
computers are usually not that easy though so i'm not expecting it to be. what program are you using to make the terminal look so nice?

The terminal a gnome-terminal ('emerge gnome-terminal'). Configuring it is quite straight-forward
If you don't want to install all the gnome stuff it requires, there are a few alternatives, 'aterm' and 'konsole' (KDE terminal).

I remeber finishing setting up gentoo, especially the part when you do 'etc-update'. It wanted to update 100+ config files, and I couldn't be bothered to type 'y' for each file, so I took the '-5' option (overwrite files without asking).
Instead of typing 'y' the next 10 minutes, I spent ~2 hours editing config files so I finally could start X

I used StyleXP to apply the skins etc. As for the stats, I used Samurize (click HERE) for the little readouts and stuff. It's pretty good, and there are tutorials on the site to help you.

yeah that blows, making config files from scratch absolutely sucks.

Nope, nowadays I just listen to music. I somehow got more into programming/graphics.

But do you know of any good audio tools on linux? They can come very handy now and then. And considering most of them only are one 'emerge' away, I might just play around with them a while

i found one called mixxx off sf thats pretty decent for mixing tracks. i don't like how its totally mouse based but its kinda cool.

Audacity and Aumix are decent
i haven't got a chance to check out
TerminatorX http://linux.tucows.com/preview/10003.html but i'm planning to.

And of course im sure there are a TON of xmms plugins to do alot of similiar stuff
