Linux Build Essentials Research
#10
I didn't mean to start some kind of flame war, or intend to incorrectly assign credit to any individual... Part of my calling it "Longsleep XFCE Debian" results from the numerous different O/S images for this SBC and the multitude of different locations where the images are hosted, causing me confusion.. My error was one of confusion...

I for one would wish that Pine would take some sort of control - direct ALL energy and efforts to ONE single platform, concentrate on that - then when it's rock-solid, build other environments from there.

I've barely touched Arch at all, and haven't used Suse for over a decade, however my limited knowledge of the average Arch user - they'd have the skills and time to be able to retro-fit Arch onto a working kernel and u-boot. Suse? I don't really care.

The trouble is that there's too much fragmentation... I'm a Debian and/or Ubuntu user... I'm not a zealot for anything really... However Debian does seem the ideal candidate as a starting point... The folks over at NTC concentrate 100% on Debian - and it's a much more consistent and "stable" ecosystem (i.e. the NTC ecosystem, not necessarily "Debian")...

At work we have to run EVERYTHING on Wheezy - which seems like a bizarre choice when we're using open source software anyway...
