Anyone know where I can get my hands on one of these?

@MadMike77 I need an x86-64 laptop with a serial port

@herag 220 or X220? Only the former has a serial port

Is there a version of fortune(1) whose database is not maintained by That Guy

I needed a break from Real Work, so I'm speedrunning writing a Unix-ish operating system

Day 3

My goal was low-key to get doom working before the wedding

Back from vacation, finished integrating libvterm properly

(it does not work very well)

Main issue is that when you move the cursor left across a line, the characters to the right of the cursor disappear

Pretty puzzling one

@mort thank you!

@laydros I'm implementing termios and such from scratch (ugh) and doing VT-100/xterm emulation via libvterm

drewdevault,
@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

Tidied up the port and the vt code, bundled it up all nice, and added ncurses and vim 5.7 to the base system

less also builds and works with minimal changes, might add that as well

@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

Additional software that I have gotten to run on Bunnix but which hasn't been packaged and/or added to the base system:

  • Doom
  • binutils
  • gcc and g++
  • qbe
  • less
  • cowsay
  • lua
  • libarchive

Anything else I should try?

@smolwaffle there's a version of vim 5.7 which is nicely stripped down and cleaned up and self-contained

drewdevault,
@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

@garritfra have ncurses working

drewdevault,
@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

@lord no

drewdevault,
@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

@noodlez1232 both work (Hare I haven't tested end-to-end yet)

tcc is already included in the base distribution

Day 26:

  • Finished implementing poll(2)
  • Finished terminal emulation and a crappy termios implementation
  • Ported ncurses
  • Ported vim 5.7
  • Ported less
  • Ported mandoc

Have to integrate doom into the optional software sets, write some documentation, clean up bits and pieces here and there, and fix a couple of bugs, and then I'm happy to call that Bunnix 1.0.

@k it probably already works

drewdevault,
@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

@w8emv no, and I don't intend to add it (don't want to implement /proc right now)

drewdevault,
@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

@k

@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

@grimmy @pidgin no networking

@drewdevault@fosstodon.org avatar

@k I might do nethack if I have time
