[[funtoo current desktop] New install, pb with mouse]

How did you configure your kernel? Manually, genkernel, etc. I had a few laptops that I had to enable different things in my kernel to get the trackpad to work.

Here's mine.

[Shiney New Funtoo]

Welcome to Funtoo. 

[Funtoo processor intel i7 haswell]

I'm using a i7 Haswell (Core i7-4770HQ). I have Funtoo working just fine. 

[Making Funtoo more Fun...]

Sounds great. I'm still working toward updating the GNOME stuff. Anything else, just let me know. PM me on IRC or e-mail is fine, but I'm looking forward to helping out again :D

[installing funtoo in a xen VM]

The install is essentially the same, also depends on if you're going to set it up from the GUI or command line. But, you get a livecd ISO, set up your harddrive space through Xen, boot up the livecd, partition it up (i.e /boot swap /), get the Funtoo stage3, install the system, set root password, reboot, remove livecd ISO, start it up. 

 

I ran Xen on my home server for Funtoo VMs for a few years until I switched to KVM. I don't really remember anything specifically weird about installing on Xen. Kernel config was made from looking at lspci, lscpu, etc. I think the only thing that I specifically remember being a little weird was the harddrive was called 

/dev/xvda

So, really it's just as simple as installing to bare metal. 

[Fun things to do with Funtoo Containers]

On my Funtoo servers I have an IRC server, Minecraft server, self hosted blog (I don't like Wordpress xD), and XMPP. That's usually what I do with my stuff. Set up different things to learn more and of course for fun stuff.
