The little mouse told me…. July 14, 2013. I pulled the slow magnetic hdd running gentoo from my thinkpad r61i; swapped it with a 2009-era 32GB ssd running archbang. A variant of arch linux. It’s been several years since i last tried arch, and i wanted a desktop environment installed & preconfigured. archbang offers a minimal openbox desktop with a few basic programs: web browser, terminal, text editor, file manager, etc. From cold boot to logged-in at the desktop: 5.5 seconds. The upstream developer of m...

The little mouse told me…. The bright future of Foresight Linux. April 1, 2014. Foresight is what I use for almost a decade now (and that means almost the whole time since it was created by Ken Vandine). It was originally based on rPath Linux and Foresight 2.0 still is. So rpath doesn't exist anymore (it was aquired by SAS a while ago) and our existing base is getting outdated to a point where maintenance is getting a burden. There were several options to solve this issue. The Plan and Progress. Next ste...

The little mouse told me…. All posts by Mark Trompell. May 13, 2015. Little more than a year ago I posted about the bright future of foresight linux. Well it looks like this won't happen any more. Yesterday Michael announced our decision to bury (or at least it feels like this) foresight linux. I've been involved in foresightlinux for 10 years and it's hard when such a long period ends. I will miss foresight and the people that formed it. Here is the announcement:. JIRA and Confluence servers. Requiring ...

The little mouse told me…. All posts by Skunnyk. Road to Xfce 4.14. April 12, 2016. The looong road to xfce 4.14. I hope you still want some news about Xfce! As usual, the xfce development is slow, has some organisation problems (only few members have access to servers, and are often not present), and lack core maintainers/mentors. But hey, we do our best :). The bigger change for 4.14 is the port / upgrade to GTK 3.x. It will be a. Port New and big features are postponed to 4.16. Lots of works on xfwm4’...
