[arch-dev-public] nvidia for 2.6.23-rc*
by Tom K 09 Aug '07

09 Aug '07

Hi all. In the course of building the current -mm release, I came across a Gentoo patch for nvidia with 2.6.23-rc kernels. I don't have nvidia myself, but a user has now confirmed that it's working as expected. The patch is in CVS for the unstable/nvidia-mm package. T.

[arch-dev-public] CD covers for ISO releases
by Roman Kyrylych 09 Aug '07

09 Aug '07

When Voodoo was released we have this thread: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2007-April/000423.html And official CD cover was http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=242736#p242736 made by Elasticdog. Then PJ updated his Voodoo covers and made a nice collection for Duke: http://www.geocities.com/kinortkele/archlinux-duke.tar.gz http://www.geocities.com/kinortkele/archlinux-duke-cdlabel.tar.gz AFAIR we didn't have official CD cover for Duke, and we don't have it for Don't Panic yet. It would be very nice if we had CD covers released at the time of ISO release. Both Elasticdog's and PJ's designs look nice. We should pick one of them and update it (let authors do this if they won't mind) few days before official ISO release. So CD distribution sites and magazines will have what to print on CDs. ;-) -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

[arch-dev-public] mirror list on download page
by Roman Kyrylych 09 Aug '07

09 Aug '07

Well, the mirror list on our download page is outdated. prdownloads.sourceforge.net still has 0.7.1! I think many package mirrors also provide isos, so I suggest to take a mirror list from pacman and strip those mirrors that provide packages only. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)

[arch-dev-public] projects.archlinux.org - "Official" projects only?
by Travis Willard 02 Aug '07

02 Aug '07

Hey all, In a recent forum thread[1] someone kept suggesting they move yaourt development to projects.archlinux.org -- I was under the impression that was for arch "official" projects only, and I replied as such, but I'd like to make sure I have my facts straight. Can people like the devs of yaourt add their projects to projects.archlinux.org? Or is it for stuff like pacman, pacbuild, namcap, etc... only? Thanks.
