Frankenpup 0.5 updates, aiming for bullshit: CRUISE CONTROL

Well, well, well udev, udisks, PAM, dbus polkit, consolekit... look at this fucking mess... even harder on a puppylinux based distro... FUCK FUCK FUCK... at least udev and PAM works, dbus is 50% up but consolekit and polkit are some serious bullshit to make run on puppy full force: folders permissions, new users and groups... BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT.

It will eventually work, maybe today, maybe tomorrow.

More updates on frankenpup

Last night i did a brand new sfs, now frankenpup has xorg 1.15.1, better baselibs, filesystem sfs was reduced from 320Mb to 280Mb, recompiled fontconfig, Freetype, dropped razor-qt for LXQt because razor code was shit since teams merged together, i'll be adding more libs to make everything work smoothly as possible, most stuffs are from git so this build is pretty "bledding edge" on some specs, now i will struggle with mesa to get DRI (again) ad will release it as frankenpup BETA v0.5 in a couple of weeks.

Puppy-es "test"

Bueno, no hay mucho que decir, como algunos saben estoy trabajando en la rama "test" de puppy-es tratando en lo posible de seguir la antigua filosofía de puppy de compilar todo, y no usar paquetes de otras distros, aunque de todas formas trato de hacerlo lo mas compatible posible con slackware. Ya estoy terminando el sistema aunque me dio la locura de actualizar las libs (y desactualizar otras) en favor de la velocidad y estabilidad del sistema.

Características generales (por ahora):

-Kernel 2.6.39 SMP (compilado con gcc 4.5.2)
-Gcc 4.5.2
-Glibc 2.15
-Español como lenguaje por defecto. CASI todo está en español.

Para construir esta puplet usé wary 5.3, y los míticos scripts de construcción de frankenpup y recompilada varias veces para tratar de eliminar los rastros de slackware y frankenpup.

Espero tener listo el alpha dentro de esta semana, para empezar a buscar bugs finales.

ZOMFG! frankenpup-v0.2.1337!!

v0.2.1337 just kicked in YO!
pretty much a fixes/upgrades release, nothing "AWESOME" to see, for the next release i will try some *interesting* stuffs, like hibernation (a.k.a suspend to disk), cpu freq scaling, and a new Xorg build (that's why i installed the libX*, let's call it anticipation) with direct rendering and hardware acceleration for intel cards (that would be nice isn't?), also the kernel was compiled in frankenpup8 (first of the family with gcc 4.5.2 and my personal "test" build), or in other words: it was compiled with the packed version of gcc so compiling kernel modules shouldn't be that hard.

Frankenpup en español: ya tengo casi todo el sistema base completamente traducido, me falta el script: xorgwizard, el script de arranque de sistema y uno que otro scrip en el initrd.gz.

That's all for now.
