I seem to be loosing the list off all the newsgroups on my server
after quiting gnus. I do "A A" to get them all then normally find the
ones i want using "A a"

How do i save that entire list of all newsgroups?

The usual usage is to subscribe to the groups you're interested in,
using 'u' from the group buffer; then 'l' will display all of the
groups you're subscribed to with new messages (the default) or 'L'
will display all of the subscribed groups.  It looks like (C-h k u)
you could say something like C-u 5 u to subscribe the current group
and the four following.

  --dzm

I do the normal U thing with all the 'T n' things, but sometimes i
just like too look for new newsgroups on a topic, because yes we all
need another reason to be sitting in front of our PCs.

So if i had a list of all the avaible newsgroups on my server it would
be dandy.

In the *group* buffer type: ^

This will open the server overview buffer. Move the cursor over your
opened agent and press RETURN

This will give you a list of all newsgroups available on your
server. To subscribe to a newsgroup move the cursor on it and just
type u.

That is really interesting, i didn't see that reading the manual. This
is better than 'A A' because it shows the number of articles as well.
