Hi,
More than 15 years ago I joined the GNUstep development because I like
NeXT's OS design, look and feel. At that time my dream was to return
NeXTSTEP desktop to Linux. After 15+ years my dream still alive. I
understand that GNUstep project goals somewhat changed over these
years. And this is good until project is interesting to broad kind
(goals, tastes) of people involved in it's development.
Finally I've decided to inform dear community about my project of last
2+ years.
I've named is NEXTSPACE. It is SPACE for NeXT applications.
You can find code and brief description of project here
https://github.com/trunkmaster/nextspace
<https://github.com/trunkmaster/nextspace>.
It is not finished yet. However I use it as my desktop environment on
daily basis.
You can find RPMs in Packages directory:
* libdispatch and libobjc2
* nextspace-core - system specific files: skeleton for user home
firectory, shell profile, udev, polkit, etc.
* nextspace-gnustep - GNUstep libraries with my patches.
Hi, I've set up a Centos virtual machine in VirtualBox to test this. As
a long time debian user, I'm a little lost in it, even if my first steps
in Linux where in LinuxPPC (LinuxPPC-2000 !), Yellowdog and then
MandrakePPC. But it runs now.
I've installed your RPMs, with the hope to have a Nextspace session to
launch. I understand know that I can't, because Workspace isn't
packaged. I'm eager to try it.
But for now, I tried to launch Gorm which is in the
/Developper/Applications. But it fails to run, complaining about missing
gnuustep-back. Should I specify a special name for back using the
defaults command ?
The next step is to build Frameworks, then Appplications. You can
create new user with all needed files inside it's home dir. You can
start Login with command 'systemctl start loginwindow' or login to
newly created user from your login application (it should start
~/.xinitrc in user home dir). That's it.
You mean that, with your rpms installed, i f I build Frameworks,
Workspace and Login; then any newly created user will have the needed
files and that I will be able to launch Login.app ?
Thanks for this tremendous amount of work.
