Experiences with Gentoo, CRUX and Onebase Linux (OSNews)
[Posted May 26, 2004 by ris]
OSNews
takes a
look at three source based distributions. "
Crux is simple to
use, non-user-friendly-at-all, but simple. Just the way I like it. I use
xfce4 window manager, firefox, gimp2, xpdf, nedit, openoffice, gqview,
gaim, thunderbird, xmms, gxine and a few other gtk/gtk2 apps. These
programs and a handful of their dependencies are all I compiled and
installed, with my optimized architecture and optimization flags of
course. Sadly nothing breaks. Nothing crashes. I love to tinker with my
system but there is no need. That is why I keep a partition empty to try
out the new ones."
