Test edit. Another test edit. A discord test.
Architectures
x86-64bit
is used by the overwhelming majority of Funtoo Linux users, and most of our stage3 builds are for this architecture. Thus, it is the best supported architecture. Our x86-64bit
builds are pure 64-bit, and do not include multilib support. We include pre-built debian-sources
kernels in our stage3's for this architecture.
We also have official builds for arm-32bit
, arm-64bit
and soon riscv-64bit
. These architectures are functioning but are more challenging to install as they do not include our official pre-built kernel and may require board-specific setup. In general, the steps documented in The Installation Guide apply, except the part on boot
loader, configuring GRUB, etc.
Init System
OpenRC is the official init system of Funtoo Linux, and we explicitly do not support SystemD. Why? For a lot of reasons. We believe that an operating system's init system is some of its distinctive characteristics, and is something we care about. Gentoo used to be a leader in this area, with the first dependency-based init system being created in the early 2000's. Later, this init system was ported to C and became what is now known as OpenRC. We would rather support OpenRC going forward and look at other interesting possibilities rather than moving in lock-step with SystemD. We believe that the initial startup process is an area where innovation and independence is important.
SystemD has been a contentious topic in the Open Source community, and the issues with SystemD are not purely technical. They are also related to the very aggressive and coercive promotion of SystemD as being the one init system for all Linux distributions. As SystemD absorbs more and more functionality, such as device management, power management, control of your laptop's backlight, and other low-level functions, it becomes more and more embedded in the foundation of the Linux userspace stack, and distributions become more beholden to upstream SystemD changes and future 'acquisitions' of functionality. This erodes the independence of Linux distributions to be in control of the low-level technologies used for various aspects of Linux. We believe it's in the best interests of the Linux community to encourage diversity and innovation in this space. We want the larger Gentoo ecosystem to support innovation, not uniformity.
Systemd is not supported in Funtoo Linux. This is a technical decision and we will not be adding systemd support to Funtoo.
Kernels
debian-sources
is the official kernel in Funtoo Linux, and is included on stage3's for x86-32bit and x86-64bit architectures.
debian-sources-lts
is an alternate kernel that is fully supported and is often used in production server environments.
gentoo-sources is not officially supported in Funtoo Linux but may be used by advanced users. If you are experiencing possible kernel problems, we will ask you to switch to debian-sources
for troubleshooting purposes, since this eliminates kernel variation as a source of potential problems.
Desktop Environments
gnome
mix-in our using our official stage3 builds.
cinnamon
mix-in our using our official stage3 builds.
mate
mix-in our using our official stage3 builds.
kde
mix-in. We do not yet have a stage3 build so no regular build testing is performed.
