Yes, no compositor.
If you're interested you can see what I'm seeing by installing
Fatdog64-700alpha1. The ISO is about 250mb, real easy to install. The whole OS
is just two files, the kernel and a initrd, we use a layered filesystem (aufs).
To install:
Download the iso here: <a href="http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/iso/">http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/iso/</a>
Make a folder on the root of an ext2/3/4 partition , maybe call it 700a.
Copy vmlinuz and initrd from the ISO to 700a.
Inside the 700a folder create another folder named fd64save (This will be the
R/W branch of the filesystem.)
Add a grub entry: (assuming sda2 for your partition)
title Fatdog64-700a
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
kernel /700a/vmlinuz savefile=direct:device:sda2:/700a/fd64save
initrd /700a/initrd
Then just boot into it. Lots of other ways to boot, but this is easy assuming
you have ext partition.
That comes with the .911 driver, I've uploaded the .914 driver compiled with
TearFree enabled by default here:
<a href="http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/broken/xf86-video-intel-2.99.914-x86_64-1.txz">http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/broken/xf86-video-intel-2.99.914-x86_64-1.txz</a>
Just download, then right-click on it and select install. Ffdiaporama is under
Multimedia on the main menu, follow the steps in my previous post on how to
duplicate the problem.
If you want to be able to compile, all of our development files (except QT) are
in one file fd64-devx_700a1.sfs (actually a compressed filesystem) that can be
found here: <a href="http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/sfs/700/">http://distro.ibiblio.org/fatdog/sfs/700/</a> Download and put it in
the root for the partition that you used before. Then open a terminal and type
load_sfs.sh. That script will let you add the development files to the
filesystem.</pre>
