[arch-dev-public] new package: xf86-video-intel-legacy
by Jan de Groot 07 Apr '09

07 Apr '09

Hello Intel users, There's a new package in testing (x86_64 only at this moment, i686 will follow later today) called "xf86-video-intel-legacy". This is the old 2.3.2 driver, patched to support xorg-server 1.6 and newer versions of libdrm. Users with pre-G965 hardware who suffer from performance issues with the current -intel driver should test this release. Note that this driver is rather old and doesn't contain support for all the new hardware around these days. G965+ users should be better off with the normal intel driver. I hope this driver can replace the need for the old i915 repository maintained by a community member. If this is the case, expect xorg-server 1.6 to be moving to extra soon.

[arch-dev-public] [signoff] coreutils 7.2-1
by Andreas Radke 06 Apr '09

06 Apr '09

new bugfix upstream release. please signoff. -Andy * Noteworthy changes in release 7.2 (2009-03-31) [stable] ** New features pwd now accepts the options --logical (-L) and --physical (-P). For compatibility with existing scripts, -P is the default behavior unless POSIXLY_CORRECT is requested. ** Bug fixes cat once again immediately outputs data it has processed. Previously it would have been buffered and only output if enough data was read, or on process exit. [bug introduced in coreutils-6.0] comm's new --check-order option would fail to detect disorder on any pair of lines where one was a prefix of the other. For example, this would fail to report the disorder: printf 'Xb\nX\n'>k; comm --check-order k k [bug introduced in coreutils-7.0] cp once again diagnoses the invalid "cp -rl dir dir" right away, rather than after creating a very deep dir/dir/dir/... hierarchy. The bug strikes only with both --recursive (-r, -R) and --link (-l). [bug introduced in coreutils-7.1] ls --sort=version (-v) sorted names beginning with "." inconsistently. Now, names that start with "." are always listed before those that don't. pr: fix the bug whereby --indent=N (-o) did not indent header lines [bug introduced in coreutils-6.9.90] sort now handles specified key ends correctly. Previously -k1,1b would have caused leading space from field 2 to be included in the sort while -k2,3.0 would have not included field 3. ** Changes in behavior cp,mv,install,cat,split: now read and write a minimum of 32KiB at a time. This was seen to increase throughput. Up to 2 times when reading cached files on linux for example. cp -a now tries to preserve extended attributes (xattr), but does not diagnose xattr-preservation failure. However, cp --preserve=all still does. ls --color: hard link highlighting can be now disabled by changing the LS_COLORS environment variable. To disable it you can add something like this to your profile: eval `dircolors | sed s/hl=[^:]*:/hl=:/`

[arch-dev-public] Aspell dictionaries updates in [testing]
by Eric Bélanger 06 Apr '09

06 Apr '09

Hi, In the course of the license rebuild, I've updated a couple of aspell dictionnaries. I've put them in testing: aspell-es aspell-it aspell-pt As I don't know these languages, I can't really test them. So if someone (dev or user) could give them a test, that would be great. :) Eric
