If you could, I'd be interested if you could explain why Gentoo is
closer to BSD than Arch?

Is it just because FreeBSD encourages building, BSD in general doesn't.

Sorry to continue the derailment but I was under the impression that
Gentoo only provides binary packages for a few large programs like
office and firefox. Is it possible to run hardened Gentoo without
compiling?


Making this mail even slighlty xfce related, xfce is great but
xfces mixer and pulseaudio don't work with the grsecurity kernel patch.
So I'm using gnome-mixer with Alsa on xfce.
