DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: wish list, 2.6



This should stir things up a bit within the linux community...
Update: I have now moved my day-to-day machine onto DSL v5.0
Still lots of work and bugs to fix. Yet it boots, runs murgaLua, and the latest stock Firefox v2.0.0.13 + Flash v9 as on-demand loadable modules.

Which kernel version did you decide to go with in the end?
2.6.24.2. I used Finnix 91.1 as a bootstrap for a base toolchain. A stock 2.6.24.2 kernel and kernel patches from SliTaz. This is how I build the -dsl kernel. Currently some scripts of Knoppix/Finnix/SliTaz are in the cauldron as well as all the DSL custom scripts.


And more...

It, the core, has no gtk stuff.
Yet, I am able to mydsl-load a gtk2.dsl and then run gtk2 Abiword, Gnumeric, and CUPs.

I also made a gtk1.dsl and was able to mydsl-load it and run our current gtk1 emelfm and LinNeighborhood/Samba extensions.

The proof of concept is working.
