Hopefully you stop discussing logos and work the software, I may even use it for my server if it proves easy enough to install.

2013 - Someone tosses around CloverOS as an official /g/ distro name
2014 - Someone tries to make a Gentoo version of Crunchbang and calls it CloverOS https://warosu.org/g/thread/S42673404 https://github.com/fridaynightfeels/Clover-OS
2015 - CloverOS is vaporware, lo/g/os is made. /g/ makes hundreds of logos, wallpapers and threads.
2016 - They become old memes, /g/ distro remains unmade
2017 - Someone makes CloverOS

>>60827288
So why exactly haven't you added any CFLAGS for the machine type, like `-march=...` or `-mtune=...` or at least things like `-mavx` and `-msse4`? You already have set a requirement for what your processor needs to run CloverOS with your CPU_FLAGS_X86, so why not enable them in gcc too?

>>60828640
cpu_flags_x86 variable is for packages, it compiles in code for those instruction sets and uses them when detected, and not many packages have it. it's mostly for making binaries smaller

>>60828687
So does the cpudetection USE flag enable any of the CPU_FLAGS_X86 variables to work at all, or does disabling cpudetection just mean that it will unconditionally run instruction set specific code?

>>60828775
https://packages.gentoo.org/useflags/cpudetection

>>60829147
That doesn't explain whether disabling cpudetection disables the instruction set specific code completely or makes it run regardless of CPU detection

It seems like this is a one or the other switch. Is there a way to use binary CloverOS repo when available for package and automatically failover to the source option if not?

Thanks for the help anons. I've been having fun playing around with this. Installed it to a VM and installed it to physical HD soon after.
System seems much quicker and responsive than my own Gentoo install and this was significantly quicker to setup.

The install script steps for setting up a new user didn't seem to work for me - I ended up just manually doing most of this after the first reboot. It looked like the user was partially created/setup but something wasn't allowing a login.

>>60827288
Are you able to build all packages with those flags? It was a few months ago, I'll admit, but I tried building Firefox with -Ofast and it failed, same thing with LTO. For the LTO thing I might've done it wrong, though, since I added only -flto while you added -Wl,-flto as well so I'm guessing that's necessary for it to work properly?

Why is the clover tilted 45°?

>>60839242
https://github.com/chiru-no/cloveros/blob/master/etc/portage/package.env

Speaking of LTO...

According to this you need to pass the optimization related CFLAGS to LDFLAGS

I've just been flipping back and forth in the make.conf file - if package isn't in the repo I just do it from source and then revert the make.conf. It is a bid tedious but not too bad.

Here are some packages I've needed to install that were not in the CloverOS repo:

mousepad
os-prober (so grub can detect Windows drives)
xclip (for copy/paste script to work with urxvt)
discord
nvidia-drivers (prop. nvidia drivers work a lot better with games - stallman wouldn't approve)

New CFLAGS:

CFLAGS="-Ofast -pipe -flto=8 -Wl,-flto=8 -funroll-loops -fgraphite-identity -floop-block -floop-interchange -floop-parallelize-all -ftree-parallelize-loops=4 -floop-strip-mine -ftree-loop-distribution"

Changed -O2 to -O3 for programs that didn't build with -Ofast.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nb97AbB8M_o

>>60841982
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Binary_package_guide

It looks like specifying -g instead of -G automatically falls back to source building.

>>60846705
Can you actually explain your flags and their intent? This seems excessive but maybe a few of those flags have a reason to them.

>>60847158
That's clearly not the actual dev.

>>60847158
-Ofast
Disregard strict standards compliance. -Ofast enables all -O3 optimizations. It also enables optimizations that are not valid for all standard-compliant programs. It turns on -ffast-math and the Fortran-specific -fno-protect-parens and -fstack-arrays.

-flto[=n]
This option runs the standard link-time optimizer. When invoked with source code, it generates GIMPLE (one of GCC's internal representations) and writes it to special ELF sections in the object file. When the object files are linked together, all the function bodies are read from these ELF sections and instantiated as if they had been part of the same translation unit.

-funroll-loops
Unroll loops whose number of iterations can be determined at compile time or upon entry to the loop. -funroll-loops implies -frerun-cse-after-loop, -fweb and -frename-registers. It also turns on complete loop peeling (i.e. complete removal of loops with a small constant number of iterations). This option makes code larger, and may or may not make it run faster.

-fgraphite-identity
Enable the identity transformation for graphite. For every SCoP we generate the polyhedral representation and transform it back to gimple. Using -fgraphite-identity we can check the costs or benefits of the GIMPLE -> GRAPHITE -> GIMPLE transformation. Some minimal optimizations are also performed by the code generator isl, like index splitting and dead code elimination in loops.

-floop-parallelize-all
Use the Graphite data dependence analysis to identify loops that can be parallelized. Parallelize all the loops that can be analyzed to not contain loop carried dependences without checking that it is profitable to parallelize the loops.

-ftree-parallelize-loops=n
Parallelize loops, i.e., split their iteration space to run in n threads. This is only possible for loops whose iterations are independent and can be arbitrarily reordered.

https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-6.1.0/gcc/Optimize-Options.html

>>60847081
-g won't work for CloverOS. It only emerges if the binary USE flags matches the system USE flags. I'll figure out a solution, maybe making an alias for emerge that proceeds with building if it ends with an error code.

>>60847618
You do understand why it works that way, right? It's to prevent incompatible USE flags from breaking binaries.

>>60847689
It's to maintain the current system configuration without letting binaries decide it for you.

Also, dependencies

Why it no work? please tell. I just ran the script on a ubuntu 17.04 live image

>>60851459
Thanks. Im working on this today.

Consider the following:
Rather than syncing portage, grab a portage squashfs image from a gentoo mirror (found in snapshots/squashfs/)
Pros:
-the current lto squashfs image is ~120MB, the xz one ~85MB, so it's much less data to download and consumes less disk space and inodes
-allows faster installation
-updated daily
-speed gains make up for the possible extra overhead for using a compressed disk image

Note: distdir must be moved from /usr/portage (since that becomes read-only now), this can be done with

mkdir /var/distfiles
chown portage:portage /var/distfiles

then add

DISTDIR="/var/distfiles"

to make.conf

ebin. Apparently ubuntu's kernel have some extra ext4 features enabled while the kernel of cloveros/gentoo doesn't. mkfs.ext4 detected this support during the installation and enabled these features on the filesystem, but your ext4 module now doesn't have these so it cannot handle the filesystem.

It's not that much work, especially if you don't change your style every week and live for the rice.
My setup is primary practical, looks good mostly accidentally.

At work for example I run pretty much stock KDE5. It works, lets me get the work done, and that's it, generic DE, default theme.

As for my personal machine, indeed I dedicated few days of – what you would probably call – ricing, but it's been like this for around a year now, and the change I have made then was changing colours to a bright theme, as I don't work as much at night, and the terminals are more readable during the day while being white. The WM config was initially created in middle 2012, since then it evolved with my changing needs, the .Xresources I posted above is also from around that time, just got some minor changes.

>>60857325
You should post this over on /r/unixporn (sorry offended 4fags)

If this really is gonna be Gentoo for dummies then we should add Cnchi or some other graphical installer for normalfags.
A bridge between the common distros and Gentoo would be great. Have CoverOS be to Gentoo like Antergos is to Arch

>>60827288
What's so great about Clover OS anyways?
What's the difference between Clover and regular Gentoo?

I looked at the website, but I didn't see a whole lot of info on the OS itself, it mainly just tells you how to install it.

You'd think that an OS designed for anonymous shitposting on Mongolian basket weaving forums would have tightened security or something, but I didn't really see any info.

>>60858312
It's just a Gentoo install script with preconfigured rice + a wallpaper.

So basically 4Chan made a Gentoo distro, but there's really nothing special about, and the wallpaper doesn't even include a pair of juicy anime tiddies.
What was the point?

>>60851459
Can you provide download locations or package names for some of those fonts? They appear to be missing from some distros.

how do I rice this wm?
I've only ever used i3.
Also how do you get ncmpcpp if you can't install mpd?

replace openrc with runit, and use doas instead of sudo

>>60859833
Look up .twmrc configs. Or replace twm with some other window manager in .bash_profile

>>60859833
>Also how do you get ncmpcpp if you can't install mpd?
mpd works fine on Gentoo, just temporarily change emerge flags to compile it if there's no binpkg.

>>60859361
Gentoo has them all.

These should be all required for this config, plus some more:

media-fonts/ubuntu-font-family
media-fonts/wqy-bitmapfont
media-fonts/wqy-microhei
media-fonts/wqy-unibit
media-fonts/wqy-zenhei

>>60860188

>>60860188
Putting all of this in cloveros repo

It's time to hang poettering. MLGA

For overriding the emerge binpkg behavior, using a wrapper script with interpreter spoofing seems like a good idea. Set up /opt/cloveros/bin as the first entry in PATH, and have something like this as /opt/cloveros/bin/emerge

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/emerge "$@"
EXITCODE="$?"
if [[ EXITCODE != 0 ]]; then
    EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--keep-going=y --autounmask-write=y --jobs=2" /usr/bin/emerge "$@"

media-fonts/dina

is another popular bitmap font for terminals.

More package requests:

app-misc/ckermit
net-misc/zssh
net-dialup/lrzsz
app-arch/sharutils
app-arch/{,un}makeself

As well, look at adding an overlay for Retroarch.

if you are using

mpv

add

youtube-dl

too, that would allow a term youtube media player

function mm() {
    mpv --load-unsafe-playlists --no-video --ytdl-format=bestaudio --term-osd-bar-chars=◁●◎○▷ ytdl://ytsearch10:"$*"
}

like so

I hope i get around to finally installing it tomorrow

I installed it. I installed it and I hated myself, and now it's gone.

>>60856729
I remember it too and I remember it never progressing beyond logos and wallpapers
Looks like it still hasn't progressed beyond that

The mouse cursor in the demo in the OP looks like crusty butthole. Can you include the Adwaita cursor theme by default?

It's just a binary version of Gentoo that is really quick to install and has some rice. Pretty nice option DESU. If repo doesn't have a package you can still install from Gentoo source repos so no problem of missing packages.

It's Gentoo preconfigured/preinstalled.

It's still Gentoo. Sabayon makes more major changes. It's everything Sabayon is supposed to do, without the bloat of a second package manager and a semi-broken Portage.

You can

emerge i3

or any other wm and edit .bash_profile. One of CloverOS's gimmicks is extreme low ram minimalism. twm uses 3mb.

I'm working on making the Tinycore kernel the default after I can do enough desktop testing with it.

>>60868050
CloverOS should be as close to Gentoo as possible, so I'm doing it the way it is.

To get it fully free, I need to use a Libre kernel, remove linux-firmware and go through the worldfile for nonfree software. This should be done in the upcoming week.

>>60868043
I am just saying bullshit. I like the initiative, hope it prevails.

>>60868098
so you plan on turning this semi interesting project in a steaming GNU approved turd?

>>60868135
Maybe. I might make another edition of CloverOS for that purpose if it doesn't work out.

>>60868098
This is why I use Arch.
Arch doesn't give a fuck about the freetard philosophy and neither do I.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux#Pragmatism

A dark-as-my-soul wallpaper would be a must, though I do like the green one.

>>60868183
It's not likely for CloverOS to become free of binary blobs, it has to work with wifi.

>>60868183
>Arch doesn't care about user choice
