Hi just to inform all developers, the new kernel can be downloaded from this adress: http://www.archlinux.org/~tpowa/2.6.21/ or as repo [kernel] http://www.archlinux.org/~tpowa/2.6.21/
All developers that have modules and hardware are invited to test the already provided ones. I need your feedback on this task, to avoid broken modules in the future. Only broken one is ivtv at the moment and i haven'T build the unstable modules. If you find a fix for ivtv don't hesitate to put it here.
Known to work: fcpci,fcpcmcia,intel-536ep, nvidia-9x and nvidia-71x
I can verify that ipw3945 works. My multimedia keys stopped working though... as did my sound, but I think that was an already existing problem (booting with headphones plugged in) because it happened when I rolled back to 2.6.20.6-4.
The more that 2.6.21 breaks the less I want to use it... I've now moved back to 2.6.20.6 for everyday usage.

I've rebuilt wlan-ng26 with the 2.6.20 patch that is currently in CVS (Rev 1.2) - I think you may still have the previous broken one, tpowa.
Package is here: http://www.archlinux.org/~tom/packages/wlan-ng26-0.2.7-6.pkg.tar.gz PKGBUILD etc here: http://www.archlinux.org/~tom/packages/wlan-ng26/
Perhaps it's related to the recent alsa upgrade, but my sound seems to work for a few minutes every boot, then stops - I haven't had much time to fiddle with it, but it's an intel hda card.
I can look into it more later.
Quick question - how long before 2.6.21 is released? I was holding on the ndiswrapper upgrades because I expected the new kernel to come out, but I don't know if I should just upgrade ndiswrapper for .20 right now
2.6.21 will be released really soon. AFAIK rc7 is the last RC before final. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
