I'm returning to Gentoo and chose funtoo instead. I used Gentoo back in the 2000's but then there was an awkward transition when KDE3 was becomming stable and portage was a mess for me that I couldn't get through. I jumped into Fedora for a while, then Ubuntu, then Fedora then Mint. I missed Gentoo, so came to check you guys out. I like a lot of Daniel's direction with Funtoo and am excited to be up and running on my brand new XPS 2in1 laptop.
But, I need the tablet mode of my laptop to work well as I bought it for that reason. In my research, it seems that iio-sensor-proxy is the program to use to handle all those fancy rotation sensors. However, it has a nasty dependency:
systemd.
I missed OpenRC, although, I'm on the fence with systemd and I appreciate the arguments against it. Is it worth me trying to get systemd up and running on a Funtoo system or should I just switch over to Gentoo?
