After several hours of `package.keywords`/`package.use` editing and package
|
|
|
|
|
|
compiling, I managed to install GNOME 3 on my notebook. Well, I mean, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
GNOME 3 packages. Unfortunately the fglrx driver didn’t seem to recognise my
|
|
|
|
|
|
ATI Mobility M56P card, and the open source driver didn’t want to give me GLX
|
|
|
|
|
|
support. When I finally found some clues on what should I do, I had to use my
|
|
|
|
|
|
notebook for work, so I installed Fedora 14 on it. Then I realised that GNOME
|
|
|
|
|
|
3 is already included in Rawhide (Fedora 15), so I quickly downloaded and
|
|
|
|
|
|
installed that instead. Now I have to keep this machine in a working state for
|
|
|
|
|
|
a few days, so I will learn SELinux stuff in its native environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When I installed Fedora 14, the first AVC message popped up after about ten
|
|
|
|
|
|
minutes. That was a good thing, as I wanted to see `setroubleshoot` in action.
|
|
|
|
|
|
However, in Fedora 15, the AVC bubbles didn’t show up even after a day. I
|
|
|
|
|
|
raised my left eyebrow and said that’s impossible, SELinux must be disabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
And it’s not! It’s even in enforcing mode! And it works just fine. I like it,
|
|
|
|
|
|
and I hope I will be able to get the same results with Gentoo if I can get
|
|
|
|
|
|
back to testing…
