DocScrutinizer05hmmm00:00
DocScrutinizer05[2013-01-09 16:06:48] <timeless> it's a cname for timeless.justdave.net00:01
DocScrutinizer05[2013-01-09 16:06:56] <timeless> which responds differently when you visit it by that hostname00:01
DocScrutinizer05[2013-01-09 16:07:15] <DocScrutinizer05> mhm00:01
DocScrutinizer05[2013-01-09 16:07:33] <DocScrutinizer05> but the host is justdave.net, not maemo.org?00:01
DocScrutinizer05[2013-01-09 16:08:11] <DocScrutinizer05> so I could consider it "safe" for now?00:01

DocScrutinizer05[2013-01-09 16:11:10] <DocScrutinizer05> I.E. the server is not one of those Nokia will tear down soonish?00:01
DocScrutinizer05[2013-01-09 16:11:22] <timeless> right00:01
Paliand http://maintenance.maemo.org/news ?00:01
PaliDocScrutinizer05: maintenance.maemo.org and downloads.maemo.org00:02
MentalistTraceurShouldn't we still add it in to whatever file is being discussed sooner rather than later, so it doesn't get forgotten until the DNS entry for it expires?00:02
ShadowJKwhat file?00:03
ShadowJKI would've assumed hf would get the full existing zone file for maemo.org... or do we have to start from scratch?00:04
MentalistTraceurWhatever file this referred to: "<Pali> DocScrutinizer05, in your /etc/hosts is missing mxr.maemo.org and also downloads.maemo.org"00:04
ShadowJKAh that's hacks00:04
MentalistTraceurVery well. I defer to your superior technical knowledge.00:05
*** mvp_ has quit IRC00:05
ShadowJK/etc/hosts on your computer or N900 bypasses DNS. Some of the maemo.org servers have already been migrated to nemein, but the still nokia controlled DNS points browsers at the old servers hosted by Nokia. By editing that file, it's possible to test the new servers00:06
ShadowJKnot hosted by nokia actually, was it logia or something, but paid by nokia..00:06
*** NIN102 has quit IRC00:06
*** NIN101 has joined #maemo00:08
ShadowJKAs mxr.maemo.org is a CNAME entry, it means in DNS terms that when the browser asks for "mxr.maemo.org", it gets a reply saying "ask timeless.justdave.net", instead of getting an IP address. Amusingly this means that if all the Nokia sponsored servers go down, mxr.maemo.org will be the only thing that still works :-)00:08
*** Erasmus`` has quit IRC00:09
Palimxr.maemo.org is not CNAME00:10

Palirun dig00:10
MentalistTraceurI actually understand the function of both /etc/hosts (on normal computers - I just did not know if the /etc/hosts being discussed was some special, unrelated-to-that-normal-functionality file).00:11
MentalistTraceurBut thank you, the explanation would've been helpful if I was unaware of how it worked.00:11
MentalistTraceur:)00:11
MentalistTraceur(Ditto for CNAME DNS records)00:11

MentalistTraceurQuestion: Is there a way to make passwd use a password that's longer than 8 characters (i.e. not ignore everything beyond that)?00:17
ShadowJKNot trivially00:17
*** janemba_ has quit IRC00:17
*** mvp_ has joined #maemo00:19
MentalistTraceurI mean, afaik it's the algorithm used to do the hashing that drops the characters after the 8th. And I know you can make it hash using a different algorithm by editing config file /etc/pam.d/passwd or something like that, but would doing that make it actually stop dropping the last 8 characters (which boils down to the question of 'is the passwd utility dropping the chars, or is it just passing the whole string to the00:19
MentalistTraceurhashing algorithm used")?00:19
ShadowJKI don't think pam is relevant on N900...00:20
ShadowJKlike, do we even have /etc/shadow on it?00:20
kerionope00:20
ShadowJKright :)00:20
ShadowJKcrypt()ed into passwd then?00:20
ShadowJKIf someone held me at gunpoint I'd rewrite crypt in glibc to do this..00:22
*** nox- has joined #maemo00:22
*** dhbiker has quit IRC00:23
*** xes has joined #maemo00:23
MentalistTraceurWho would I go annoy (kernel-power maintainer, someone else, would it need to be packaged into CSSU to distribute in a non-hacked way..?) to get the N900 to use /etc/shadow, and so forth?00:24
MentalistTraceurI guess what I'm asking is 'what do I have to go learn to modify/package to get it set up?'00:25
ShadowJKWell, it's a major change of the low level stuff. It's the kind big re-architecturing thing that is/was easier to do in Mer00:26
kerioMentalistTraceur: anything that uses any system password00:26
kerioand you're still not going to be able to fix 3rd party programs that assume that /etc/passwd holds the passwords00:27
ShadowJKhm... sshd and dropbox come to mind, any others?00:28
MentalistTraceurUghghhr.00:28
keriodropbox? wtf00:28
keriowhy would dropbox care about user and root's passwords?00:28
kerioto be fair, third-party programs apart for stuff like sshd shouldn't really care about passwd00:28
keriobecause there are no passwords in passwd in the standard fremantle00:29
MentalistTraceurSpeaking of Mer, who made the decision to have it use rpm instead of deb? That was done in MeeGo before Mer forked from it, right?00:29
*** dhbiker has joined #maemo00:30
MentalistTraceurAnd more to the point of what I'm actually curious about, why was that done, if anyone knows?00:30
ShadowJKno wait, dropbox is that fielsharing thing00:32
ShadowJKwhat was the real name.. beardrop?00:32
MentalistTraceurDropbear?00:32
ShadowJKthe lightweight sshd thing...00:32
MentalistTraceurYeah, dropbear.00:32
ShadowJKah thx :)00:32
MentalistTraceurIt has an ssh client and an scp program as well.00:32
MentalistTraceurIt's not just a server.00:33
ShadowJKMer was deb before MeeGo, then it went rpm when MeeGo came. iirc.00:33
Sysaxedpower kernel increases boot time by 5 seconds. why? :)00:34
ShadowJKIn the meanwhile they've worked hard on slimming their infrastructure to the point they can run everything on less than 300 bucks per month in hosting costs for everything.00:34
ShadowJKI guess they've not seen much reason to switch back :)00:34
MentalistTraceurSomeone needs to figure out how to make one package manager compatible with the other package formats.00:34
Sysaxedis it just something getting loaded at boot time or a general performance slowdown?00:34
MentalistTraceur(The reason is that I'm used to .deb and I don't want to learn a new package format and the world naturally revolves around me.)00:35
ShadowJKI don't know any packaging format :)00:35
*** Darkchaos has quit IRC00:35
ShadowJKSysaxed, I would suspect boot time00:35
*** eMHa has quit IRC00:36
SysaxedShadowJK, I have two identical devices00:36
*** eMHa has joined #maemo00:36
Sysaxedboot time was exactly the same before installing power kernel on one of the devices00:36
MentalistTraceurI know .deb in that I know how to make .debs (not necessarily well), and that it's an archive produced by the 'ar' program, inside of which there are several .tar.gz files.00:36
ShadowJKpowerkernel includes alot more drivers, so I would not be surprised if it took longer to initialize00:37
ShadowJKI would expect that runtime performance would be the same, though00:37
SysaxedShadowJK, oh, ok00:37
Sysaxedany benchmarking tool?00:37
MentalistTraceurOh, except now it's sometimes .tar.xz files, which sucks, cuz the N900's ancient dpkg doesn't know how to use those.00:37
ShadowJKGetting maemo up to date would be an exciting project for sure, kinda what cordia tried/tries to do..00:38
MentalistTraceurWell, Cordia is more of a 'make Mer look like Maemo', which I heartily approve of anyway.00:38
SysaxedShadowJK, you mean migrating to the latest debian packages? :O00:39
ShadowJKMentalistTraceur, I thought it was "Make hildon run on debian" thing00:39
MentalistTraceurPersonally, I think we (as in the whole community) should all get together and start our own cell phone manufacturing company, producing devices with completely open-source phones. There's totally enough of an untapped market for that.00:40
Sysaxedwell, really, I'd be very happy if it was possible to run debian on n900 with ability to make phone calls...00:41
MentalistTraceurShadowJK, afair, Cordia has Mer at its core. I could of course be misremembering....00:41
*** konelix has quit IRC00:41
Sysaxedand I don't even need any special window manager00:41
Sysaxedwhy would I if I can use stylus...00:41
ShadowJKI guess deblet never reached phone capability00:42
ShadowJKsts did say it was rubbish battery life00:42
MentalistTraceurOkay, I'm going AFK like I said I was, now.00:43
ShadowJKMentalistTraceur, I often find I have this problem too with this channel. :)00:43
MentalistTraceur(Life has proven itself to be depressing and sad, for apparently getting the proper /etc/shadow -using setup on the N900 is difficult and outside my current time and abilities.)00:44
*** sinfocol_ is now known as bef0rd00:45
Sysaxedanybody? I need something to check the performance of my n900 devices. Any benchmark app?00:46
cehtehwhat performance?00:46
Sysaxedcpu I guess00:46
ShadowJKMentalistTraceur, it's pretty interesting how the "important things" varies between geeks :)00:47
MentalistTraceurFinal remark before I go away for a bit: A. Sorry Sysaxed, don't know of any. B. What meaning is there to existance if one's password hashes are plainly available for the world to see?00:47
cehtehwhy do you need to check it?00:47
cehtehby default it runs up to 600mhz .. and thats definite00:47
*** eichi has joined #maemo00:48
ShadowJKcehteh, he's concerned because after installing power kernel, his boot time increased.00:48
cehtehcan happen .. but thats not a cpu issue00:48
ShadowJKMentalistTraceur, shows the origins of a singleuser system, I guess00:48
Sysaxedcehteh, I have two devices configured identically. I want to see if anything changes after installing different things00:49
cehtehit most likely will more or less00:49
ShadowJKcehteh, so he's worried that htis isn't just slowing down boot time, but that it is slowing down everything00:49
cehtehdont worry, send me the devices, no problems for you at all :P00:50
ShadowJKOne benchmark I used to use was "open news.bbc.co.uk in browser and wait for it to load"... but I have unlimited bandwidth.. without that, web benchmarks are a bit dangerous00:51
cehtehconsidering emmc and µSD latency and tracker and all other background stuff its hard to impossible to measure real-world performance in a reliable and reproducible way00:52
cehtehcpu wont be much of a bottleneck .. I/O and the lack of ram is00:52
ShadowJKMy theory was that the boot time is slowed somewhat by the extra drivers that pk includes00:54
Sysaxedmost probably00:54
cehtehdunno if there are patches for these, but just looking at dmesg gives you timestamps00:55
cehtehget the timestamp of the first entry when booting started and define some entry which defines that the boot has finished00:55
cehtehmake a script substracting those and voila00:55
Sysaxedwhat for?00:56
Sysaxedstarting devices simultaneously does the thing00:56
cehtehfine if that works for you00:56
cehtehwhy did you ask then?00:56
*** markinfo has quit IRC00:57
SysaxedI'm asking how can I check the performance.. not the boot time...00:57

SysaxedShadowJK, my friend was using a laptop with 256 mb of ram only01:10
SysaxedShadowJK, XP as OS01:10
SysaxedShadowJK, it was just fine.01:10
Sysaxedfirefox as web browser01:10
ShadowJKW2K on 256M is mostly fine too before you start skype and browser01:11
Sysaxedon crunchbang I was able to get in 256 mb limit with firefox and skype started01:11

Sysaxedand something was swapped only 3-4 times in my life on that pc01:22
Sysaxedso it's more than enough for running firefox, skype, dropbox, eclipse, blender01:23
ShadowJKMy N900 can run the x86-emulator written in javascript, booting linux. My quad-core desktop is forced to its knees by what is essentially static text. There's something wrong with web.01:23

ShadowJKMy Atom 550 (iirc) machine has same web browser benchmark scores as my android tablet :/01:43
ShadowJKMy 2006 vintage AMD Sempron box beats them both by miles01:44
fastlane`but with that ram, eclipse is not that ram friendly or is it?01:44
fastlane`which android tab do u have?01:44
ShadowJKAsus TF70001:44
fastlane`hm01:44
ShadowJKQuad core tegra 3 @ 1.66 Ghz01:44
ShadowJKThe Sempron 3100+ runs at 1.8GHz clock frequency, iirc.01:45
fastlane`android is not that ram friendly i guess01:46
ShadowJKFor h264 decoding, dual-core Atom 330 (@1.66Ghz) sometimes beats the sempron :)01:46
ShadowJKAndroid is ram-paranoid01:46
fastlane`my friend has a nexus 3, and i start browsing couple of websites on chrome on android 4.2 i think01:46
fastlane`and after a while, the website kind of page ot whatever01:46
fastlane`or*01:47
fastlane`give n900 1 gb ram :$01:47
fastlane`hehe01:47
ShadowJKIf you switch tabs or switch app, it "forgets" the other apps or tabs01:47
fastlane`true that !01:47
ShadowJKIt's really annoying01:47
ShadowJKLike, I open tabs so that I'd not have to suffer loading times01:47
ShadowJKand then it goes and discards the page anyway01:47
ShadowJKpisses me off01:48
ShadowJKN900 does better01:48
fastlane`yes and then its like we r trying to kill these problems with faster n faster hardware, rather then doing something about it in the software ... but then i guess nothing more can be done as the wole system is running java01:48
fastlane`nothing is deterministic in nature there01:48
Sysaxed_fastlane`, eclipse is fine. 100-300 megs ram usage01:48
fastlane`hm01:48
fastlane`galaxy note 2 is supposed to FAST damn it01:49
fastlane`but again, the same problems01:49
fastlane`with 2gb ram01:49
Sysaxed_fastlane`, java is not that slow really01:49
ShadowJKThere's also this thing where anyhting that is not in foreground is suspended01:50
fastlane`hmm, their own scheduling01:50
ShadowJKit's the basis of android's power saving strategy01:50
fastlane`hm01:50
fastlane`power saving my foot :p01:51
ShadowJKIt effectively disables multitasking01:51
Sysaxed_disables... I thought it was called "kills"01:51
fastlane`is there a kill even?01:52
fastlane`why wasnt just everything written in c01:52
*** vblazquez has quit IRC01:52
ShadowJKI have a habbit of opening, say, theregister.co.uk, and then "open in new tab" every interesting article, switch to IRC to pass some time while browser loads, switch back... except browser has been paused while I've been ircing, and I STILL have to wait for shit to load01:52
ShadowJKgod damn it, if I have 4 cores, I wouldn't mind 3 of them used for the browser when I'm in irc01:53
Sysaxed_ShadowJK, that's why we have n900, right?01:53
ShadowJKTrue that01:53
fastlane`absolutely !01:53
ShadowJKI use my N900 more than the android tablet01:53
fastlane`hehe01:53
ShadowJKthe touchscreen on the android drives me bonkers sometimes too01:53
Sysaxed_capacitive touchscreens... :\01:54
ShadowJKI have vibration feedback turned on. It only works in specific apps. By specific apps I mean the virtual keyboard. Everywhere else you get no feedback.01:54
fastlane`i cudnt spend money on these tablets, but i guess i may on the 16gb nexus 7 ... for reading books in pdf01:54
fastlane`is there a CHM file reader on android01:54
*** vblazquez has joined #maemo01:55
ShadowJKHowever, sometimes in the middle of hte night, I get woken up by the tablet vibrating furiously, when it htinks that someone has touched it and activated touchscreen and is typing the next best-seller novel consisting of "aaaaaaasssssdddddffffghhhyyyuuuttrtrrrrrrfffffvvvnnnmmmm"01:55
fastlane`lol01:55
*** caemir has joined #maemo01:55
fastlane`:D01:56
ShadowJKThe lack of sufficiently large screen bezel is annoying01:56
ShadowJKbecause you have to hold it with your hand covering the touchscreen01:56
ShadowJKif your hand covers the touchscreen, it registers as an input01:56
ShadowJKSome apps consider that input a part of a "pinch to zoom" gesture or similar01:56
fastlane`hmm01:56
ShadowJKSo you can't actually scroll until you let go of the thing and make sure you're only touching it with one single body part01:57
fastlane`oh the pinch to zoom patent !!! apple think no one in the whole world cud have come up with it!01:57
fastlane`:@01:57
ShadowJKThis actually varis between apps, some apps don't care about extra stuff, but most do.01:57
fastlane`going around suing companies01:57
fastlane`its reallllllly hard to get used to capacitive screens,01:58
ShadowJKIt woudl help if you'd get feedback02:00
ShadowJKN900 does this really well. The delay between touching screen, and vibrator acknowledging it, is reallyy low, and it's consitently really low02:01
ShadowJKAnd I'm using the quadcore tablet as comparison here.02:01
fastlane`yea02:02
ShadowJKN800 and N810 had sound feedback, but the sound dsp on them were somewhat unreliable... :)02:02
fastlane`in the times of n810, i really wanted to buy it, i was soooooo fascinated by that device but i had no money02:04
fastlane`really awesome screen02:04
ShadowJKthe touch layer on N900 is much better02:05
ShadowJKBut on N800 and N810 screen, the touch layer is like 1mm or less above the display layer..really nice in that sense02:05
ShadowJKon N900 it feels a bit like the "window" you touch is a mile above the screen that produces the contents02:05
ShadowJKLike if you take stylus, and put it down on the screen on some specific point, and then look at it from different angles, you'll find that the point shifts location depending on the angle you look at the screen02:07
* ShadowJK still uses N800 and N810 :-)02:07

ShadowJKI bought a new microsd card for my N80002:09

fastlane`cool02:09
ShadowJKiirc "A-data ultra speed"02:10
fastlane`hmm02:11
ShadowJK"AUSDH16GUI1-RA1     ADATA 16GB Ultra High Speed MicroSDHC"02:11

ShadowJKOt02:11
ShadowJKIt's not entirely reliable, it failed in my benchmarks. :-)02:11
xesahh02:12
ShadowJKSeems to work reliably enough in my N800 though, approaching 3 weeks of uptime02:12
Sysaxed_n900 has sound feedback too02:12
ShadowJKI think 1-2 week was the norm with the older cards, there the limit was mostly that the cards were so slow that watchdog kicked in02:12
fastlane`iirc adata has some very nice n affordable SSDs also,02:13
* fastlane` will get a ssd for his laptop .... one day !!!02:14

Sysaxed_halXI, as far as I remember it's fine02:17
xesShadowJK: i would buy a new 64GB uSD... (wikipedia is so big..) Which card do you suggest?02:18
halXIso it must be my phone02:18
fastlane`howcome i can find ADATA 16GB Ultra High Speed MicroSDHC on amazon's uk website but not on amazon.com :o02:19
ShadowJKxes, 64g is beyond my affordabilty. For 16g I can afford buying a bunch of them and use the best I get.02:19
Sysaxed_anybody? what was that wiki page about upstart, event.d and other related stuff02:20
fastlane`and adata's promier pro 32gb usd card is for $77 :OOOO02:20

ShadowJKThe old sandisk Class 4 uSD card was the fastest card on the market at the time, beating competitor Class 10 cards easily, and beating sandisk's class 6 cards too :-)02:22

ShadowJKThe new sandisk class 4 is woefully slow. :)02:23

ShadowJKNo clue. You basically wont know until you get it.02:24

ShadowJKThere's a trend with UHS cards, they tend to perform really slow with SDHC hosts.02:24
ShadowJK(in some respects)02:25
ShadowJKThat adata card I mentioned, I only get 3MByte/s with it on N800, but it's still the fastest card I've used on N800 when I put the swapfile on it :-)02:25
ShadowJKIf you just want to store files on it, a non-UHS Class-10 Sandisk card is probably the best there is02:26

ShadowJKIf you want to try boost performance, the hunt is on :)02:26
xesi understand....considering the cost ad the risk..... the impression is that it would be better to wait some time for that size of memory card02:27
ShadowJKI have currently about 6  8 or 16 gig cards on order02:27
xesWOW....02:28
ShadowJKif any of them impress me, I'll get the 32 gig version and test that02:28

DocScrutinizer05nox-: before mosaic, I developed a viewer to display advertisements and citymaps etc on public touchscreen terminals, which we could dial up and feed new texts via modem. I think those had less than 32MB RAM02:41
*** halXI has quit IRC02:42
MentalistTraceurBtw, @ comment up above with the whole Android discussion about how it kills multitasking - it actually would be extremely easy for Android to not do that, Google just wrote Android like that. It's not Java itself that manages what Android app 'activities' get unloaded, afaik, but the Android task/activity management, whatever layer that's implemented in.02:45
*** kerio has quit IRC02:46
MentalistTraceurAnd I would guess just about every 3rd party browser uses Android's built-in webview class, so they'd have a hard time doing the only background-task-killing workaround I could think of for Android even if they tried.02:50
*** Martix has quit IRC02:50
*** kerio has joined #maemo02:50
MentalistTraceurOf course, my Android developing skills are fairly limited as well, so there might be work-arounds an 'app' could do that I'm unaware of...02:51
Sysaxed_vi____,02:51
*** kerio has quit IRC02:52
HurrianMentalistTraceur: IIRC, you'll simply have to put whatever task you need to run as a service02:54
*** kerio has joined #maemo02:54
Hurrianlike the terminal emulators, the UI is part of the main activity, and the terminal window is a service02:55
MentalistTraceurHurrian, yes, and that was what I was thinking of, however, the discussion I am responding to had to do with browser tabs 'forgetting' the tabs they had loaded when they've not been the foreground tab for a while.02:56
*** tank-man has quit IRC02:56
Hurrianhmm, it's as if no browser on Android has ever heard of Javascript pausing02:56
MentalistTraceurWhich led me to the thought that to save that in a service, you'd have to somehow get the service to store that webpage in memory.02:57
MentalistTraceurWhich would be great, except Android provided a very easy to use 'webview' class for coding, which in no way exposes the actual webpage itself as far as I know. So if most browsers use that for rendering, the developers of those browsers wouldn't be able to do that...02:58
HurrianMentalistTraceur: the main activity can probably just fork a service per tab, freeze itself, and simply call back to the pages once someone brings the browser window back up02:58
Hurrianoh, if those webpages are dynamic though, and take the WiFilock, the battery life is simply going to go down the drain.02:59
*** kerio has quit IRC03:00
Hurriancan Android suspend services? seems like that's the best option - fork services for each tab, once the main browser window gets killed/frozen the tabs get frozen, and resumed when the browser gets brought up again03:00
Hurrianthis really shouldn't be a problem in the age where most high-end Android devices have upwards of 1GB RAM03:01
*** mvp_ has quit IRC03:01
MentalistTraceurMy concern is I don't think that service for that tab will be able to actually get at the webpage data - that's handled by the WebView class.03:02
HurrianI just looked it up, and it seems that you cannot run a Webview inside a service.03:03
MentalistTraceurSo when the Tab's activity is killed (by Android doing its usual background task gutting), the service will still live, but the tab's activity's WebView element will have been killed, loosing that data and needing a reload next time you get to the tab.03:03
MentalistTraceurIndeed.03:03
*** kerio has joined #maemo03:03
HurrianMentalistTraceur: that's more inefficient than "saving a list of open pages", which most browsers do nowadays03:04
MentalistTraceurYou can't run any View-derived class in a service in Android. As a rule of thumb, any class that deal with showing things on the screen can't go in a service.03:05
MentalistTraceurs/deal/deals03:05
MentalistTraceur...03:05
HurrianIIRC, Chrome for Android has a limited ability to store the webpages in open tabs and restore them after the process has been killed - it stores the page into cache, and redraws them (and restores scroll position, but not entered data)03:05
MentalistTraceurs/deals/"deals/"/03:05
MentalistTraceurPerhaps, but Google has a privileged position as far as coding that app goes.03:06
Hurriannah, I just think thats one way of faking suspend-resume ability03:06
MentalistTraceurAll of the above said though, if an Android browser dev wrote their own web rendering engine, THEN they could get around the Android background-task killing as far as webpages having to reload goes.03:08
MentalistTraceur*Shrug* Whatever, long-live actual properly multi-tasking phone OSs.03:09

jon_ynope, remount still readonly03:20

tomreynthe dumps' torrent files are available on their website17:32
tomreynpretty outdated though17:32

WizardNumberNextfreemangordon: I've heard you're using 64gb sd card on your n900. Do you know if it is generaly supported or is it rather matter of luck? I mean do you have any idea about addressing issues? I do not know, if SD card is more alike pure FLASH or is it block device (means interface between FLASH and SD card interface itself)23:55
WizardNumberNextSpeedEvil: I never had run into any computer, which doesn't support ext2/3/4! It is up to OS only. And I know only ONE OS, which doesn't support ext2/3/4 and I think you know the name of that crap.23:56

CorsacWizardNumberNext: you mean OS X?23:57
WizardNumberNextI would not let windows read my SD card anyway. Last it touched my HDD I lost 400GiB of data - it was last time it had access to my hardware23:58
WizardNumberNextOh, I forgot that creator of OS X exists23:58

WizardNumberNextwho uses OS X? only fanatics I presume. No games, no software, no nothing - what is use of that? Fancy graphics? I have that for ages on my GNU/Linux23:59
