Exactly. You don't even need to go "ancient" to get that level of manual control, Arch exists, Gentoo exists, Debian is pretty close.

- rubatuga 6y agoI agree, Debian with `ifupdown` installed is pretty standard.

- readingnews 6y agoI have used Gentoo since 2000, takes too long now, I am too busy... Debian does not have the audio stuffs I need, and getting caught in compile dependency circles was bad. For some reason, even the maintainers and the audio software group could not get the package working on Debian. I had to back off and go to Mint. I suppose this sounds like a counter argument to me wanting control... but I will admit I am in a special situation in that I want more control, but I use very specialized software that has issues with old or very bleeding edge distros.
