New gentoo system
Just installed a new Gentoo here at work. Just for the record this is what I emerged so far:
Base system:
- gentoo-dev-sources (kernel 2.6.1)
- xfree (It can’t be all just text, can it?)
Window Manager:
- windowmaker (Best WM hands down)
- windowmaker-themes (Make it look nicer)
- wm-icons (… even nicer)
- gdm (Something nice to greet you when you login)
- gdm-themes (Even nicer)
Some Apps:
- imagemagick (convert and other image tools)
- xlockmore (Nobody touchs my desktop while I’m gone. Note: Had to emerge latest PAM to get it to work under kernel 2.6.1)
- samba
- gnome-vfs-extras (To have samba in Nautilus)
- menumaker (great tool for generating decent menus)
- acroread (pdfs)
- nautilus (while this isn’t available)
- lyx (Word what?)
- firebird (One bird)
- thunderbird (Two birds)
- gaim (Keeping in touch)
- xine (Video)
- xmms (Sound)
- cups (Printing - I had my printer installed in 5 minutes)
Hosting:
- Apache 2
- PHP 4 (remember to include apache2 in the USE variable)
- PostgreSQL
- phpPgAdmin
Some Window Maker DockApps:
- wmnetload
- wmclockmon
- wmmemmon
- wmcliphist (Essential)
