Exherbo has survived a couple of updates. I think I like paludis better than portage, but portage has better documentation.

^ fantastic. I still have to play with Exherbo, but if everything'll be right I'll have another test machine soon (can't understand why people throw good PCs away, but who cares) and I definitely want to give this a try.

Fully dkegged.
And an older just to fill the gaps. :)

@Ivan: I'm in awe. That's beautiful.

Thank you Joe. But switching colors is now so damn easy, you cannot do anything wrong. :)

^ Can't achieve that, but it is truly fantastic.
Another stacker I missed, and another one that perfectly suits my needs. Oh yes, I stole DebianJoe's wallpaper from the Sauce-Emacs-pimping thread. Just to get him back on the grill cause I know he's hiding somewhere planning something cool.

^ Nice. Is that 3.14 kernel working well for you?

I can't decide between evilwm and mcwm. I like the bindings in mcwm a little more, but evilwm is smaller, and I patched the mouse bindings. Good thing I don't have to just pick one.

^ Kernel is doing fine so far. No noticeable differences with 3.13-7 and same RAM usage once in X.
I like evilwm too. Too many good stackers around, impossibile (and not necessary :) ) to pick one.

@pidsley: maybe what you need is evilmcwm? ;)
@gekko: lovely wallpaper mate, looks gorgeous.

slightly off topic: 3.14.0-pae and no-pae are working brilliantly on this Acer TravelMate P253-E, very smooth and better than the 3.9 series.

Ubuntu 14.04 not light? I guess it depends...

^ pidsley, proving the general concensus wrong since forever :D

^^ yeah, Ubuntu tamed.

Even lighter with a custom kernel.

" admiring:ubuntu evilwm scrot with 27Mb / 2Gb"

Beautiful and light, Pids!
I was mucking around with alpine linux today, (which doesn't come with man pages FFS) and it still ran at 37Mb / 2Gb
Pfft.
Amateurs, really.

Where's the scrot?
(edit) Oh wait, that's a noX distro, for routers and firewalls?
(edit2) If people are interested, I could probably write a how-to for using busybox init on Debian (or Ubuntu). But then everyone could do it...

well, it's not impossible to install x on it.
but yes haven't got very far: http://linuxbbq.org/bbs/viewtopic.php?f ... 390#p22390
even thats running 290M / 800M no idea what with.
no so far as getting the FB up to reasonable spec. but by heck is it fast. install a package, it's done - boom.
I can reboot, saunter into the NOC (about 5 M) and shh in by the time I wedge my arse into the chair.

Edit, might play with it tomorrow, I managed to ruin my servers /e/n/i via ssh or possibly the Xen kernel i was trying to enable... -yeah top sysadmin work Wux. 8}

^ You have come a long way from your Grasshopper days. You need a new title. Hmm. Maybe I give you one. ;)

Damn Pidsley. :)
