The Gremlins of Open Source Software
It seems that every time stuff kinda works, and in any possible, logical way I want to built upon it to improve/update/refine, the rest has to fail.
There are myths out there, Distributions famous that you know if you "master" them you will be safe, and sound. And a little bit proud, too.
Here is My Failure List; All that in One Single Afternoon, believe it or not:
-Gentoo install: no X system, no graphic nothing then, no network. I knew it, though, it's not my first try. The last time, network was achieved with some nasty scripts... Can't remember...
-SabayonLiveCD: knetworkmanager forces addresses out of my ip range, lock them with no option to define manually - a pity, looks superb, and comes with nvidia drivers, SecondLife, googleearth and other nasty goodies [assaultcube2 ].
