All the examples are slackware based. The solution, imho, is to carefully insure that examples are given in such a way that the main distros are represented somewhere in the faq. I don't mean many examples, one for each distro, where examples are. I just mean that on the whole, there should be parity. Else, there's a subtle implication of favor.
