This forums is for OS project announcements including project openings, new releases, update notices, test requests, and job openings (both paying and volunteer).
Your collection of ports is quite impressive, especially with Qt on your own windowing system. I'll need to steal borrow some of your patchset for my own Qt port...
That said, I had a lot of difficulty while trying the OS.
While you seem to have SATA drivers, neither the live CD nor the hard disk install booted as SATA disks. While trying things in bash in the CLI, I seem to have hit a global limit on file descriptors and the whole system came down as a result. The live CD was constantly printing debug messages about the network interface. The GUI is also very slow and unresponsive, even when running under KVM - menus take several seconds to appear, even inside of apps. The Qt text editor froze and I could not exit it. Several apps seemed to just not load at all - I couldn't get Doom to start from the menu, for example.
e: I'm not sure if you're aware, but you seem to have every single git command installed as a separate instance of the binary on your disk image, rather than hard links or symbolic links, resulting in git taking up >1GB of space.
Thank you very much for your comments and for taking the time to try it out.
Of course you are more than welcome to use the patches. I learned so much from this forum (and your own ToaruOS!), I am more than happy to give back a little!
My next task will be to hunt down the bug(s) causing the shell behavior and gui lag you described (I have a hunch it has to do, at least in part, with my pipefs.c file as I had issues with this before, and Qt uses pipes heavily in widget drawing).
I haven't noticed the git command thing, thanks for pointing this out. This probably happens when I'm creating the disk image and copying files (instead of symlinks). I will look into this as well.
I will post updates as I get things fixed (hopefully).
