Hello! Thanks for your work! I have a problem - when I start tichy it gives me just black screen :(
I had some of the packages installed from anstrom repository, so it might be a problem. But as I remember from previous tries - I had black screen too. Is it treatable? Tomorrow I will try to install it on clean and fresh SHR distro and see what it gives me.
