fuck off with your gay systemd uefi unsupporting distro faggot
Angel Jones
Fucking thinkpad fan doesn't want to start. Can't use cloverOS anymore.
Dylan Kelly
Why should I use this?
Camden Wilson
CloverOS GNU/Linux is scripts that creates a Gentoo image and a packages repo (Binhost) that contains unique USE flags and CFLAGS. It aims to be a fast, poetterfrei, lightweight out of the box desktop.
CloverOS GNU/Linux is a pre-riced, out-of-the-box Gentoo that's by Sup Forums, for Sup Forums. It focuses on speed and low ram usage, doesn't have systemd or other service bloat, and includes commonly used software.
It's as close to default Gentoo as possible, with all of the configuration made in /etc/portage/make.conf, unlike other Gentoo-based distros. The scripts can be used to install it to hard drive, generate a LiveCD and create the CloverOS repo. It's very easy to modify the bash script to make your own Gentoo livecd. In short: CloverOS is Gentoo.
The CloverOS repo is built with custom CFLAGS for optimum performance, and the USE flags are configured for desktop use. There's some dotfiles in the home directory by default to save time. Packages are built with the newest GCC features such as Ofast, Graphite and LTO. I don't see any other distro putting in the effort of utilizing them, so I took it upon myself to ensure the latest breakthroughs in compiler tech doesn't go unused.
If you use Gentoo, you'll probably come to a similar conclusion as CloverOS (package.use, installed packages). The original goal was to be similar to CrunchBang, but with Gentoo.

UEFI sucks though the insanely huge codebase pretty much guarantees that your firmware is full of vulnerabilities

CloverOS runs on the YAYO philsophy: You Are Your Owner
Which means you own your computer. Not the distro maintainer, not Poettering, not Mark Shuttleworth, not the CIA, not the SJWs at GNOME. You are the owner of your own compiuter, you can build packages from source using any use flags you want for ultimate choice.
Jonathan Roberts
If I'm unfamiliar with a non-systemd/non-bloat distro, will I have trouble adjusting? For documentation/questions, can I just refer to gentoo docs?
Nathaniel Brown
I feel inadequate to be the owner. How can I remove this inadequacy other than going through all the documentation/previous threads?
Ryan Gonzalez
Yes, you can also check out the FAQ at gitgud.io/cloveros/cloveros and use /cosg/ and #cloveros for tech support
Henry Peterson
I'll check it out and install it tonight most likely, thanks.
Easton White
Run it in a vm if you want to try it before installing
Pretty much everything on that list chief. No reason to beat around the bush. A fast light weight multi media power house of a game emulator would finally shut up the Windows kiddies forever about muh gaming.
Jose Jones
I have most of those, going to look through the rest

We should probably have video demonstrations about gaming in Clover. We already have videos about it's functionality and its blistering fast file transfer speeds as well as how it almost uses no CPU/Ram. May as well do it showing it can play demanding stuff like PS2 emulators because that's stuff Windowsfags have trouble emulating to even this day. Something like that which is already installed but also works right out of the box would be a knockout punch for vidya enthusiasts.
Jeremiah Cook
Well, I posted a few screenshots. but I guess I could make videos.

I like the idea of an emulation by default thing, I could just replace the packages in livecd_build.sh and run it.

I havent seen that set posted in ages. Did anyone ever figure out what the hell was going on in those?

You sir are a refined gentlemen.
No clue, but it may as well be gamer food.

I start X and nothing is there. Just the background. No terminal. Can't find any hotkeys.
What's the point of this? The install was quite fast buy why give the option to start X if you have nothing you can do, and will just need to restart to get back to the terminal?

Does suspend to ram work when a laptop lid close event occurs? I have a bad feeling when I closed my laptop and put it into my bag, I might have forgotten to shutdown, which might have killed my fan.
Caleb Nelson
just look if the sleep indicator led is on
Leo Howard
There's no lid close hotkey
Chase Perry
So what WM is this as default? screenfetch says not found
Jeremiah Green
I can't, my thinkpads throwing a fan error and shuts down So I probably fucked up. God dammit, I swore I shut it down because I loaded up wmaker to check porthole for some packages.

Can I install this on a libreboot T420?
Logan Hall
You can install it with Libreboot but T420 doesn't support Libreboot. Only Coreboot
Connor Gutierrez
btw if you have to ask for this, you probably shouldn't install Clover or Coreboot
Joshua Long
I swear I read somewhere that it does, I was just trying to meme with a really stupid question.
Cooper Wright
Putting latest mupen64plus in binhost.
Aterm didn't build for some reason.
Certain packages built with the old CFLAGS.
Fixing everything now
Jacob Scott
Libreboot only for Core2. Core i won't work. Still needs proprietary blobs. Enter Coreboot.
In dmesg it also can't seem to find my wificard. I use a thinkpad T520 with >Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter (rev 01)
Yeah, I figured that out, but why post them here? Is it something we should be expecting to be added into the distro's customization or just showing us a resource? Because both are good.
Lucas Roberts
You can emerge afterstep, but I just thought those pictures were cool.
