This 'community' at phoronix is very close minded, they just want to replace MS's monopoly with
one of linux.
They are to cheap to buy windows or a decent pc that can handle windows 7, so they roll linux.
They then login to phoronix to troll any topic that is not about linux, spewing great comments about
how amazing KMS and udev is (lol).Last edited by kraftman; 07 May 2012, 04:05 PM.

Not much old, KDE 3.5.10, which was released in August 2008. Nearly 4 years, but no, is not old.
They don't even pickup Trinity which offers a fixed version of 3.5.x series (currently 3.5.13).
Gnome is not that old, but have been unsupported for a while too (more than a year).
One of the things I learned in school about security is to keep your software up to date. And surely they don't.

Originally posted by LightBit View PostI did know Alpine Linux, but I didn't know it can run XFCE, Firefox and other desktop required bloat. I will try it.
I want to use same OS for server and desktop.
All web browsers are bloated, because web standards are bloated. And I hope wayland won't be bloated, but maybe i'm to optimistic.
I actually don't need acceleration for my desktop use.

Yes, I have found the answer: don't use libc and code in assembler!
