Technology should be fun, powerful and free. Funtoo is a community of people who are dedicated to creating a supportive environment for learning about and using free software, led by Daniel Robbins. Funtoo projects are listed below.

Funtoo Linux (distrowatch) is a Linux-based operating system that is a variant of Gentoo Linux. Funtoo Linux is a meta-distribution that builds packages automatically from source code. Installation images are optimized for the best possible performance on the latest Intel and AMD hardware. See what we support. Install / Download / Metro
Funtoo Compute Initiative is an active Funtoo and OpenVZ container-based compute infrastructure that our community members use and which hosts Funtoo projects. It is a DIY-style initiative with full documentation, designed to allow you to deploy extremely powerful compute infrastructures at very low cost, using new or used server hardware. You can use our compute resources or roll your own. Our current hardware build is a 1U system that offers 1TB of SSD storage, 12 cores (24 threads) at 2.66GHz (Intel Westmere), 48GB of RAM and costs approximately $1050 to build. Funtoo Containers on our own infrastructure are available from $15/mo.
Learn Linux! Awk, Bash, Sed and more. The Funtoo community encourages learning. Many tutorial-style articles are available, many of which were originally featured on the IBM developerWorks site. Full Article List
Keychain helps you to manage SSH and GPG keys in a convenient and secure manner. It acts as a front-end to ssh-agent and ssh-add, but allows you to easily have one long running ssh-agent process per system, rather than the norm of one ssh-agent per login session.
