First of all I want to say 'hi', and that I really appreciate all the
work you all put into gNewSense.

Today after talking on Gnusocial with Marcus I decided to install the
latest gNewSense on my lemote.
I figured I could share what I did:

I loaded the setup over tftp.
The installer image I used was this:
http://archive.gnewsense.org/gnewsense/dists/ucclia/main/installer-mipsel/4.0-alpha1/images/loongson-2f/netboot/

A couple of things during setup:
1) Not able to start wifi during setup of network during install.
2) Full disk encryption works now (it did not work in previous release
on mipsel).
3) selected : debian desktop environment, ssh server, laptop and
standard system utilities.

First boot after install -- blinking cursor, removed this package:
'apt-get remove xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion'
reboot the machine,
boots up fine.

Desktop works with classic mode during login.
Wifi works fine when on desktop has been started

Iceweasel has the same issues on mipsel as on x64\i386, tab issue,
context menu etc.
