Got successfully installed a Reiser4 Gentoo Linux with X.org 6.8.2 (3d working but in need of tweaking), Windowmaker, and Firefox. I’ll be writing a page with my install story and its steps, so that others can replicate my experience. I’m running on 2.6.14-nitro2. If you want a responsive desktop system, I’d recommed nitro or cko sources. The scheduler is the thang. Next is to tackle mplayer and perhaps Xine (as I’ve never really got into using it with all formats). Then, onto browser plugins! Woohoo!

    Don’t forget, if anyone’s installing a 2.6 kernel and you don’t have sound, but your user is in the audio group (so there are no issues with permissions), then try the fix I found and add alsasound to the initscripts…

    You should make a dedicated page for this. Stuff like this is usually what people look for when they can’t find it on the software’s support site.

    Who told you? Who? Who, I say?

    I am doing just that. I just want to be sure that the first draft that hits the web is actually readable. ;)
