Tagged and Bagged: Gentoo
I did say something about a writeup of my Gentoo installation experience. Well, I’ve been too busy/too lazy to do it yet, but bear with me. There were a few interesting snags, especially involving upgrading GCC (prick up yer ears, D?
), that I feel need to be on the net so others can get through it more smoothly than I did.
I’ve installed the broken-out KDE ebuilds of 3.5, sort of. Gentoo has a build instruction called kdebase-startkde, that installs a basic KDE. I required only 22MB of packages to get it (better than the 200 for a full blown version). Now, to see if its better than 3.4 and to see if prelink makes a difference.
Writeup soon. Promise.
Ahhhh! Geek talk - running away now!
That’s so sexy!
That ain’t nuttin’, my dear! Wait until I post a screenshot of the GUI goodness! And, the step-by-step manual…maybe written in plain text…
LOL I’ll have to prepare myself.
