DaemonFCYeah, Apple takes 3 months to approve your app, charges $100 a year + 30% of gross sales for simply hosting it, lags so bad in updating it that you have security problems and crashers that you already fixed that Apple users have to deal with for monthsDec 20 02:27
Diablo-D3especially when its $400 of moving parts!Dec 20 02:27

DaemonFCwhich is rareDec 20 03:18
DaemonFCthey have backported Mesa 7.11, as well as the newest ddx video card driversDec 20 03:18
XFaCEit uses the 32 kernel though, seems pretty oldDec 20 03:18
DaemonFCand the drm from Linux 3.1Dec 20 03:18

DaemonFCXFaCE: That says 2.6.32, but it's not 2.6.32Dec 20 03:19
DaemonFCthey have backports from every kernel release up to what will be 3.2 in thereDec 20 03:19
DaemonFCthey wait until a feature is proven stable then rip it out of mainline and backport itDec 20 03:20
DaemonFCincluding, in 6.2, the delayed logging, scalability, and other improvements to the XFS file system driverDec 20 03:20
DaemonFC[22:18] <XFaCE> DaemonFC: So how well do you think it would support modern Intel GMAs?Dec 20 03:21

XFaCEDaemonFC: niceDec 20 03:21
XFaCEVerrry temptingDec 20 03:21

DaemonFCincluding their GNOME 2.28-based desktop and GTK Dec 20 03:22
XFaCEwell GNOME I could care less aboutDec 20 03:22
DaemonFCit also brings a series of bug fixes to their KDE 4.4.4-based desktopDec 20 03:22
XFaCEApparently you can install XFCE 4.8 with a Fedora repo?Dec 20 03:23
DaemonFCXFCE is fully supported on enterprise Linux through the Fedora EPEL projectDec 20 03:23
DaemonFClatest versions of all componentsDec 20 03:23
XFaCEDaemonFC: Starting to sound like a salesman. :)Dec 20 03:23
DaemonFCobviously the official thing to do is take the GNOME desktop, but you can avoid installing GNOME in the first placeDec 20 03:24
DaemonFCget the net installer, add the XFCE repo from EPEL to Anaconda, and select the XFCE desktop and all the software ytou wantDec 20 03:24
DaemonFCthen you would be running Enterprise Linux 6.2 with only XFCEDec 20 03:24
DaemonFCthere's obviously a demand for XFCE Dec 20 03:25
DaemonFCbut Red Hat isn't interested in making it officialDec 20 03:25
DaemonFCso Fedora EPEL provides itDec 20 03:25
XFaCEDaemonFC: One downside though, no rolling releaseDec 20 03:26
DaemonFCI can understand why Red Hat wants to dedeplicate the stack of software they have to supportDec 20 03:26
DaemonFCbut there's no reason you can't run XFCEDec 20 03:26

DaemonFCyeah, there's updatesDec 20 03:27
DaemonFCa repo of updates that are pulled from upstream tagged to go into the next RHEL releaseDec 20 03:27
XFaCEbut don't you have to reinstall more often?Dec 20 03:27
DaemonFCnoDec 20 03:27
DaemonFCall you have to do is remove the 6.2 repos and add the 6.3 onesDec 20 03:27
DaemonFCand then run an update from yumDec 20 03:27
DaemonFCwhen the time comesDec 20 03:27
DaemonFCwhen RHEL 7 is out you probably want a clean install anywayDec 20 03:28
DaemonFC6.x will be supported until Fall of 2017Dec 20 03:28
DaemonFCso 6 years before you need to reinstall everything is a good runDec 20 03:28
XFaCE[22:27] <DaemonFC> when RHEL 7 is out you probably want a clean install anywayDec 20 03:29
DaemonFCafter 7 is out, they will still have a few releases of 6 leftDec 20 03:29
DaemonFCthey will likely go up to 6.9Dec 20 03:29
XFaCEBut with say, Debian or Arch, I dont' have to worry about future releases at allDec 20 03:29

DaemonFCAMD officially supports RHELDec 20 03:31
DaemonFCthey maintain the packages themselvesDec 20 03:31
DaemonFCand do regression testing against RHELDec 20 03:31
DaemonFCRHEL is pretty much the only platform they have that level of support for in Catalyst, so you won't run into regressions as long as you use RHEL or a RHEL cloneDec 20 03:32
DaemonFCthey also certify applications against Catalyst, but only guarantee those applications work if you use Catalyst on RHELDec 20 03:33
XFaCEDaemonFC: Err, I don't have AMDDec 20 03:33
XFaCEDoes Intel officially support it?Dec 20 03:33

DaemonFCdon't use PowerVR with itDec 20 03:34

DaemonFC:)Dec 20 03:34
DaemonFCmost Radeons have immediate support in open source with 6.2Dec 20 03:34
DaemonFCthe only reason you'd want Catalyst for a Radeon in RHEL 6.2 is for the superior OpenGL supportDec 20 03:35
DaemonFCthe hardware will work fine as a workstation system either wayDec 20 03:35
XFaCE[22:33] <DaemonFC> yesDec 20 03:35

DaemonFCPowerVR-based Intel GMAs are not supported with open source drivers, anywhere, at allDec 20 03:36
DaemonFCthe proprietary blob from Intel would work on RHEL, but only the 32-bit version of RHELDec 20 03:36
DaemonFCand the 32-bit RHEL 6.x does not support 32-bit x86 CPUs without PAE and NX supportDec 20 03:37
XFaCEwhat intel proprietary blob? The GMA doesn't have/need oneDec 20 03:37
DaemonFCso I'm not sure that it would boot on an AtomDec 20 03:37
DaemonFCye, they have a proprietary blob for the GMA 500Dec 20 03:38
