Gemlog
In my second blogging year I mostly continued with more preparation for building my experimental Linux distro: A lot of applications that use various toolkits were tested and reviewed (I did not bring those posts over, though). Other than that I begun to be interested in the broader *nix family, peeking at some non-Linux operating systems and finally got my hands dirty digging into Linux systems and then beginning to build my own.
This post announces the Arch:E5 project - an Arch-derivative built with LLVM/clang, eglibc, runit, etc.
The compiler toolchain - updating an old Linux system pt.3
This post is about updating major components of the system: Kernel API headers, libc, various libraries, binutils and GCC.
Sudo and package manager - updating an old Linux system pt.2
After the preparations in the previous article, this one deals with building some newer packages for an old Linux system and doing the updates.
ConnochaetOS - An example of updating an old Linux system pt.1
This post is dedicated to the memory of ConnochaetOS, a discontinued GNU/Linux-Libre i586 distribution that used eglibc. I describe the installation and the first steps to update that really old Linux system.
An interview with the EDE developer
This post gives a really short summary of the EDE desktop plus a longer interview with the primary developer of the FLTK-based DE.
In this post I take a look at the ArchBSD project, installing it in a VM and comparing it to Linux after playing with it a bit.
In this post I write about what it was like to try out the experimental ArchHurd system.
This post is about the Arch Linux principles, some Arch derivatives as well as The Arch Way coming to Hurd and FreeBSD.
A look beyond the Linux teacup - Unix-likes
This post presents a little introduction into the topic of "Unix-likes". It touches on what a kernel and a userland are and two fundamentally different kernel designs.
Situation of the Linux Desktop #2: Habemus tumultum...
This post is about the increasing fragmentation of Linux desktops, especially taking Canonical's newest move into consideration.
