1 Hi!
2
3 I've installed Gentoo a couple of months ago with some packages of the
4 unstable branch (~ppc). After this time, these are the ones I can pretty
5 much say I'd consider stable:
6
7 dev-java/rhino-1.5_rc4
8 games-emulation/dosbox-0.60
9 media-plugins/xmms-cdread-0.14a-r1 (see below)
10 media-sound/xmms-1.2.8-rc3
11 net-dialup/pptpclient-1.2.0
12 net-www/elinks-0.4.3_rc2
13 sys-apps/cpudyn-0.4.7
14 x11-misc/numlockx-1.0
15 x11-themes/gtk-engines-lighthouseblue-0.7.0
16 x11-wm/fluxbox-0.1.14-r2
17
18 (some prior versions of some of these packages have worked to, but I
19 just don't remember which)
20
21 Just to add, I've probably never gone into the most advanced features of
22 any the programs above and haven't really tested them deeply. I just say
23 they're stable cause they haven't given me any problems on my normal usage
24 for weeks/months.
25
26 As to xmms-cdread, I believe I may have found a little endian problem,
27 see: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30796. The report didn't get any
28 substantial feedback, and I don't know what else to do... (I've also tried
29 the forums, but no luck too) If you could perhaps lead me on how to verify
30 this (still don't know whether I'm the only one experiencing this) and in
31 case this is in fact a problem, on how to contact the package maintainer to
32 get this into portage, I'd be glad to continue trying to help!
33
34 Hope it helps... I'd really like to give something back to a community
35 that's make my iBook so useful!
