Wait, @Dobbie, I just realized your on kernel 6.1. Why not 6.6* or newer? Ubuntu stable is currently at 6.5...
rachel@tyrell-corp:~$ uname -r 6.5.0-14-generichttps://packages.gentoo.org/packages/sy … oo-sources
Is 6.1.69 current gentoo "stable"? Sorry, I know nothing about gentoo.
I know nothing either but this is the Gentoo kernel.
I have looked at updating to the latest but I haven't done it yet.

@Dobbie, no problem. If you have no issues using the default kernel, I'd just stick with it. Hardware support is the only reason I've ever upgraded from a stable version. Couldn't get display brightness keyboard shortcuts working with my new-ish laptop with the bullseye kernel, a newer kernel (bookworm/bullseye-backports) solved that without any configuration.
@Pinhead, nice desktop!
I don't care what you do at home. Would you care to explain?

@hhh, wise words. As I am compiling 6.7.0.
EDIT:
I'm glad the kernel was taking so long to compile, gave me time to change my mind. Sticking with default.

No reason to update, except for security updates. That seems much harder to do on Gentoo than, say, a distro like Debian or Arch or Fedora or openSuse...

^ The BL ISOs provide the best Debian distro.
Not even joking. Do I want to give these people a link when we didn't make their Top 12? Yes...

It is at this point, especially from me. I'll refrain from posting too much as my setup barely changes anyway.
I shall continue to spam here though.
My system always looks the same, with minor tweaks here and there to conkys, OB menu etc. even if I change the ISO used to install it.
This is Beardog ISO, meaning 'bare', of Lilydog, fame. I did not install the rest of Lilydog, if I had wanted that I would have installed Lilydog ISO.
So basically all you get from me is a new and sometimes boring wallpaper.![]()

I don't use BL, but I recommend it to everyone that asked about Linux.

1 out of 5 BL devs use BunsenLabs.
Me: Ubuntu
Dobbie: Gentoo
Sector 11: Beardog - a lean Lilydog ('bare'dog) install - pure Debian 12
rbh: ?
John: BL. Thumbs up!
This is not a criticism of BunsenLabs or Debian, this is stating that you can make pretty much any Linux distro work for your needs if you take the time to learn how to remove the cruft and maintain it.

I just did that on Ubuntu, same wallpaper and desktop folders, and immediately uninstalled it. I thought it sucked. Badly, blech, hated it.
I couldn't get it to do anything, no mouseclicks.

The mouse wasn't working? Good ol' enlightenment - or maybe a Wayland issue ; I'm surprised it didn't segfault on you.

It looked gorgeous. It just didn't work. It was difficult to leave the session, everything froze. Not sure if I just long pressed the power button or not, though. Short term memory is a problem these days. Where the f*ck are my keys? Oh, where I always leave them. F@ck!
