gdm2.20 seems rather obsolete by now, let's move on;
and m-p doesn't just lump a huge bunch of stuff in,
vector fonts for installer are requested explicitly.
...by moving reference to a package list that *deducts*
packages from a feature (that should lend itself for reuse)
to a particular distribution's configuration (that can have
some specific polish).
The problem was that basing junior on slinux feature while
adding some KDE/Qt-based packages to it failed miserably
in a hard-to-debug manner: adding every package that's been
requested but not installed by hand suddenly made it build,
see also http://altlinux.org/mkimage/debug [ru]
This has had several goals:
- a target suitable for x86 and armh providing a rather
minimal set of base xorg packages and generic drivers;
- task-oriented targets for graphics use cases:
+ "desktop" means rather 2D focus with 3D being welcome
or even essential but not performance critical, thus
"a slower driver is fine as long as it does work";
+ "3d" means specific 3D performance being critical,
that is "no 3D means no use at all".
Regarding the free and proprietary 3D-capable drivers:
the previous idea was to split out some common ground
and then add the contenders on top of that; the current
approach is based on the observation that the live images
requiring proprietary NVIDIA/AMD drivers *by default*
are usually of not much use with hardware that lacks
proper 3D acceleration (like Tseng cards) or the driver
support for that (like Matrox these days).
Intel videodriver makes for a special case though:
it is both free and top-notch performer.
Thanks sem@ and boyarsh@ for discussion.
PS: xorg-drv-{keyboard,mouse,void} dropped;
those who need these can usually help themselves.
Richard and Theo would probably roll their eyes at this point
but the unfortunate reality is that wireless hardware is very
much dependent on firmware being explicitly provided; so here
it is.
rtl8192 kernel module added since it's present in t6/branch
at least.
This trots along the TODO item on text branding
and hopefully helps Michael Radyuk (torabora)
with his feature request to tweak the installer's
"Install ALT Linux" label; as an example, Simply
will now offer to "Install Simply Linux".
NB: for the feature to work properly the chosen branding
package set should have proper Provides: and Conflicts:,
specifically it must explicitly conflict with the most
lexicographically cool package set around (these days
it's sisyphus-server-light).
use/slinux-live: in p6 slinux had install-dvd version too
lists/slinux/misc-dvd: user 3d-proprietary comes from use/x11/3d-proprietary
lists/slinux/misc-dvd:restore compiz
slinux: use/syslinux/localboot.cfg
It is actually an effort by glebfm@ to create an experimental
systemd-based Simply Linux LiveCD; I merely reviewed the original
diff, moved kernel related bits to firmware (see preceding commits)
and introduced a dedicated pkglist namespace by creating a directory.
