There has been quite a few posts about the type of content fetched by Planet Ubuntu. Some say the content should only be related to Ubuntu, while others support the idea of having personal, not related to Ubuntu, posts.

Planet Gentoo is limited to Gentoo-related posts. The author uses a tag [...]
It’s been a while since I was actually upset by something in GNU/Linux, but the last few days are making up for all that sane time. It’s not even a funny problem to work with anymore.
Since the installation of Ubuntu 8.04 I can’t use my 3G UMTS Modem, a Huawei e220.

I’ve been following a discussion on Planet Debian about which VPS Provider to choose from. I’m a SliceHost customer and I’m happy with the service. However, sometimes 256MB of RAM isn’t enough (rarely) and the other plans are way out of my league (read pocket).

News flash: Shit happens!

oozie made a great work and has instructions on his website.
