Hi Geoff, I perfectly agree with you... It's not for production purpose. Basically a friend of mine wants to do live shows with his laptop. He's so confident with Rivendell that asked me to configure his laptop like stand alone Rivendell station. His laptop is a beautiful Sony Vaio Pro (last generation, http://www.sony.co.uk/product/vn-pro/tab/overview), with touchscreen. Because of recent hardware all Stable/LTS distribution can fit well on that (they can't see wifi or touchscreen, or limited cpu speed)... The only way I found is installing Xorg intel driver >= 2.21 and kernel >= 3.11... (wifi still needs manual patching). For that reason choices are few: Debian Sid, Ubuntu with some PPA or other rolling release distro.
At this moment I found Alban packages having problem with Apache2 (which is 2.4.x, no more 2.2.x) as it can't see http://localhost/rd-bin/....html. If I manually compile Rivendell in Sid (grabbing QT3 from Alban) I can setup Apache, import/delete-carts do not give errors messages, but it actually write *empty* carts. I am still investigating...
