The xorg allows for autodetection of settings, which is what we use by default, but indeed, there doesn't seem to be mousewheel detection inthere for me either. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml is a good tutorial on how xorg works btw. regards, Maarten From dpilon at dpilon.com Sun Jan 2 07:40:28 2005 From: dpilon at dpilon.com (Denis Pilon) Date: Sun, 02 Jan 2005 10:40:28 -0500 Subject: [cAos] xorg.conf and mouse In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <41D815EC.3000707@dpilon.com> John Cox wrote: > I just installed caos2.

I run it on all of my systems, including a cluster. I wouldn't call it unstable at this point, but because development is moving so quickly, you may update to something thta is buggy. Maybe this is a good situtation for lag-mirror. ;) The core is needed. There are several choices for the ext repos. I recommend current at the moment, but eventually (when it has been populated) migrate to stable for servers. -- Greg M.

Thanks for the warning. I am setting up a new server to run a python application to be written. My starting point is a python application that already depends on features in python 2.3. In CentOS-3, you cannot get rid of python 2.2, but you can add on python 2.3 by downloading the 2.3 rpm from www.python.org and installing it with the rpm command. I would rather start with an OS that has python 2.3. The choices I know about are fedora and cAos-2. The new application that I hope to write will probably be in beta for as long as cAos-2 has been in beta, but in any event, I expect cAos-2 will be out of beta before my application will be. Since my application is new, I will not suffer any financial loss if cAos-2 crashes. Even if it turns the box into a smoldering heap, I bought the motherboard and CPU from a junk dealer for about $5.00. Whichever OS I go with, fedora or cAos-2, it will be filtered by my LagMirror application with a 30 day lag. The idea of LagMirror is to only expose an updated package after it has been out for a while without any superceding update. I could use fedora -- I have already burned fedora-3 CD's. I would only have to install fedora over the cAos-2 install I did yesterday. So can someone please explain what is the difference between "current" and "stable"?

This is just the self hosting core that the entire OS is built from. It is managed differently from the rest of the OS to provide a static build environment for the life of the OS. Ext(ended) is the rest of the packages that are not core, but make the distribution usable (eg. X, firefox, apache, etc..). This tree has the capability to be managed by outside developers, and easily uploaded (with the correct permissions) to our SCM tree. Here we have several different directories representing different maturity levels: Autobuilder: Packages straight off of the autobuilder... no testing at all! Testing: Packages that are pending testing Current: The newest tested packages... Bleeding edge Stable: Only gets security updates, and high priority bug fixes. Right now Current is a link to testing, and stable is empty. This will change as we get closer to the formal release. The default yum.conf will point to core/$ARCH, and ext/current/$ARCH. Once we release the ext/current will probably change to ext/stable. Hope that helps...
