[enki]

I figured it would be nice to start a thread here to talk about the cacko rom, since there isn't any other place here to do, that i've found... maybe im lazy

Anyways, jusy so everyone knows tho, cacko upd-17 is out, been out since sep25...didn't see any anouncment, i just spotted while I was browsing through ZSI...

In addition to the changes noted in the changelog on the cacko.biz site... I've also noted that the konsole now runs as root as default! Kinda goes against usual *nix wisdom, but in this case I thnk it makes alot of sense ... no reason for me to run sudo nemore ... also, its in bash by default, so at least tab completion and colors work right, as opposed to the previous release where you have to use su...

anyone else have any thoughts and opinions on this rom? In another thread here, a user mentioned claims of wireless issues in the cacko rom... I use usb networking, personally..

btw, anyone know any good feeds that are compatible with the cacko rom?

As of Dec 12 the version for download was beta-2.4.18.

I am having problems with it making my SD card (and thus all files) disappear when it comes out of suspended mode.

I do not see much discussion of Cacko/Crow which surprises me since it doubles available RAM, which is in short supply. Perhaps some other ROMs do the same and I missed the feature.

I accept it being a bit slow. What is hard to accept is it forcing me to reboot whenever it suspends.
