Yep, nitro is "only" ck + bootsplash + some other stuff. And
guess what? That's why I use it, and not ck! I have
never had any problems with it, and I find it to be a better patchset
than gentoo-sources. I only wish it was updated more often, but
the maintainer is pretty busy right now.
And I don't care a whole lot that nitro is unsupported. The dev I
asked on the issue simply said they don't want to have to provide
support for tons of kernel patchsets, which I agree they shouldn't have
to do. I have also found that a lot of naysayers haven't even
used nitro, or only used a much older version, which makes me skeptical.
Hi,
ok, coaranm aside - have you EVER seen a dev recommending love- or
nitro-sources?
I have not! Never! Never ever!
There seems to be a reason that a) no dev has recommended them so far and b)
they are not in portage.
And puulease.. nitro is nothing more than
ck+bootsplash+someotherunneededstuff.
If you want the 'latency enhancement' of nitro, go directly to ck - Con
Kolivas knows what he does.
