I liked tiny core too I think I heard about it from the mailing list, I
tried out a bunch of distros before I found Arch, and I haven't been able to
find a distro I like more. I figure I might like Slackware or Gentoo but I
never got around to trying those and the last thing I need is a MORE
customizeable distro to geek out over (thats may not be entirely true).

Has anyone tried any of the entirely open source and GNU approved distros
such as GnuSense or Trisquel?

Hi Jon,

I've been experimenting with TinyCore myself - it's very tiny and fast,
seems to work even on an old Acer tablet. A simple but completely different
approach to packaging - basically .tgz files are separately mounted as
overlays.

X -configure runs X, trying various parameters and generating a "sort of
works" xorg.conf if all goes well.
