Hammer of Thyrion (Hexen 2) (Announce)

posted by RayeR Homepage, CZ, 13.09.2010, 15:47

I know, messing with various library versions makes compilation pure evil. But it was your decision to use this distro. For years I tried many Linux distros from small all DYI distros to big windows like mammooths. Then I finally settled on Debian which seems to me like a good compromise. Basic footprint is not big, I start with 200MB netinst miniCD image which setups basic system with console utilities. It has huge package repository so mostly I don't need compile and do only apt-get intall xxx :) Then I usualy customize and compile my own kernel and its done. Debian is not much HW resource consuming, for older systems I reccomend to use kernel 2.4 instead of 2.6. And of course light GUI (I like IceWM). I have it also on 2 old machines, P166 and AMD Geode 300MHz.
