# Fez Enterprising Linux
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- Based on CentOS Stream user-space
|
|
|
+An attempt to deconstruct and reconstruct (Community) Enterprise Linux into something more Enterprising. Assuming Project Snowball doesn't rapidly exceed what can be constructed from policy, infrastructure, and some binary shortcuts.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- Based on (Community) Enterprise Linux quality User Space Packages unless superior versions are determined and aquired.
|
|
|
- BinOC Built LTS Kernel
|
|
|
- Gated update rollout to prevent a shifting system on a near-daily basis.
|
|
|
-- Future versions may use RedHat sources if intrest and infra grows.
|
|
|
-- Package selection past the specific sku configurations MAY be on a user-demand basis.
|
|
|
- - However, verified superior versions for components will be provided where feasable and applicable.
|
|
|
-- Make things more unix-like where possible
|
|
|
-- Intended Editions
|
|
|
- - Workstation
|
|
|
- - Openbox including various components past the Window Manager, such as:
|
|
|
- - Gnome Components (no-csd-ized GTK3 versions because GTK4 is just unacceptable, this does mean blocking CentOS's gnome packages wholesale for our own)
|
|
|
- - Calculator
|
|
|
- - Disks (Disk Utility)
|
|
|
- - Screenshot
|
|
|
- - System Monitor
|
|
|
- - Gnome Commander and GParted
|
|
|
- - Nemo File Manager
|
|
|
- - Xed Text Editor
|
|
|
- - LXTerminal
|
|
|
- - Audacity
|
|
|
- - Default Internet Client (Firefox/Thunderbird will be available but SeaMonkey is default.)
|
|
|
- - Hexchat
|
|
|
- - Filezilla
|
|
|
- - mtPaint
|
|
|
- - X File Explorer (Xfe) Suite
|
|
|
- - Taskbar/Panels/Extras
|
|
|
- - [WinBar](https://github.com/jmanc3/winbar)
|
|
|
- - tint2
|
|
|
- - More as it is discovered or created.
|
|
|
- - Additional standalone Window Managers
|
|
|
- - And, of course, standard tools like arandr, feh, picom, xscreensaver, xterm, dconf-editor
|
|
|
- - Server (Console Only)
|
|
|
+- Package Selection will be a subset of (C)EL as we want a solid base to build a solid system not just wholesale everything.
|
|
|
+- Make things more unix-like where possible and where things like SystemD will allow. (See side-quests)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+## Graphical Environment (Xorg X11)
|
|
|
+- Mature and Stable Openbox Window Manager
|
|
|
+ - Gnome Components (GTK3-no-csd as GTK4 is just unacceptable and GTK5 will drop X11 completely)
|
|
|
+ - Calculator
|
|
|
+ - Disks (Disk Utility)
|
|
|
+ - Screenshot
|
|
|
+ - System Monitor
|
|
|
+ - Classic Gnome Components
|
|
|
+ - Gnome Commander
|
|
|
+ - GParted
|
|
|
+ - Nemo File Manager and Xed Text Editor
|
|
|
+ - LXTerminal and xterm
|
|
|
+ - SeaMonkey (Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird are available in ESR or Release builds and maybe MCP/UXP apps)
|
|
|
+ - Solid and defacto standard applications like Audacity, Hexchat, Filezilla, mtPaint, X File Explorer (Xfe) Suite
|
|
|
+ - Taskbar/Panels/Extras
|
|
|
+ - [WinBar](https://github.com/jmanc3/winbar)
|
|
|
+ - tint2
|
|
|
+ - More as it is discovered or created.
|
|
|
+ - Additional standalone Window Managers
|
|
|
+- And, of course, standard tools like arandr, feh, picom, xscreensaver, xterm, dconf-editor
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+## Additional things
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following are considered side-quests should Fez get discontinued or effectively irrelevant with Project Snowball then they will transfer to that project.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
- Trinity Desktop
|
|
|
- Cinnamon Desktop
|
|
|
- [OpenMATE](https://github.com/OpenMATE-Project)
|
|
|
- KDE1 (for some reason)
|
|
|
-- Chicago 95 modified XFCE
|
|
|
+- Chicago 95 modified XFCE (because holograms [I'm serious])
|
|
|
- The Common Desktop Environment (if anyone can figure out how to pre-configure it)
|
|
|
- NextSpace would be great but failing that, WindowMaker (if a compositor solution can be found, WM doesn't like picom)
|
|
|
- Remove SystemD for SysVInit
|
