As Ludovic asked that to me, here is a status report. NixOS builds, and: - it boots - mysql starts - xserver + slim start with 'xterm' - firefox runs (without javascript jit compiler meanwhile) - mplayer runs (without loonson2f simd code meanwhile) - kde4.kdelibs build.
I'm rebuilding now with the change in the system name (I asked in the list some time ago about it), and with a gcc "--with-arch=loongson2f" that should give faster code produced. I'm currently using the ABI n32 (which should be the best available now) for mips64 (big endian, so, not mips64le). Debian uses o32 I think, GNewSense too, and until this NixOS I think only Gentoo had an n32 ABI. But I'm biased, because I only know those three distros. Things I now remember to be done: - Describe an installation procedure for others to install it. - Publish a channel of built binaries. - Include loongson2f optimized versions of programs (mplayer, specially).
