Hi Peter, I like it. Could you do a milestone build based on Xorg 7.7?
Maybe: Xorg 7.7 [https://hg.openindiana.org/upstream/oracle/x-cons/x-s11-update-clone/file/c0ba569ea901] ~ Ken ________________________________ From: Peter Tribble <[email protected]> To: Discussion list for OpenIndiana <[email protected]>; discuss <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, December 16, 2012 1:37 PM Subject: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Tribblix update Tribblix being a part-time hobby project means that progress tends to come in fits and starts, but I am moving along. Milestone 2 of Tribblix is based directly on Illumos. It was based on Illumos before, of course, but by proxy. Now I'm generating the packages that come from illumos-gate directly from my build, rather than repackaging bits that OI have built. I'm still dependent on OI for the remainder of the base OS (things like libxml, for example, and the whole of the X11 consolidation comes from OI). That's the major change in Milestone 2. There are minor fixes, and a few new and updated packages. http://www.tribblix.org/ In parallel, I've been trying to get LibreOffice going. I can now get it built and installed. (It's clear that others have trodden this path before me, I just lift patches from posts to mailing lists that I can find via Google.) Unfortunately, it exits during startup and I need to look into that more closely. A first attempt at version 4 indicates there's a lot more pain ahead. I'm keeping a keen eye on other lightweight desktops. E17 builds with very little effort, and the full E17 release is just around the corner. It would be nice to have LXDE and awesome available as well. I'm still looking for a viable graphical login manager. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss _______________________________________________ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
