Okey so you agree that Arch != Ubuntu. Now we have a way forward.
heh yeah, sorry, that comparison is rather childish. I regret i
responded to Thomas mail...
Arvid's reply to me made me search for antidesktop (I did not know
about such a movement)
i have no idea how "official" that term is. its used by various
projects to denote "not centered around traditional windows desktop ideas"
and I find this xorg-server-antidesktop 1.6.1.1
yeah for example that.
in AUR. Whatever happended to it I do not know. Arvid can you start
maintainning it
yes. in fact i just have to publish my local repository.
and may be give it the status that if finally makes to
the official Arch repository ?
I'm uncertain about how to handle this right now. It would require a
mediator for me to contribute to arch as i am incapable of finding
common ground. You sound like you are able to do that?
You dont have to fork Arch for that.
yeah, a custom repo would work i think. I'd just grab official packages
and remove stuff anyway.
I for one would definitely use this instead of the standard xorg-server
with hal/dbus as I have always been a xmonad + xterm + screen user.
I think there is nothing wrong in having two xorg-server packages
besides anitdesktop sounds so cool.
well the work certainly is "cool" :D
but it's a serious HCI concern brought up here.
I think the original author of that phrase did write a good article
about it, if i remember correctly.
