Hey all, I thought it would be worthwile to mention my experiences with 2.6.24-rc1 on my x86_64 laptop. Compiling ========= It seems that i386 and x86_64 get merged into only one architecture called x86. That brings a few issues with the current PKGBUILD, such as files not being there to copy anymore. When every x86_64 tag gets changed into just x86 though, everything is fine. I was able to cleanly build and use madwifi, nvidia on the other hand failed to even just build. Pretty much to be expected, huh? Anyway, I don't know how much changed for our i686 side. Running ======= One out of 4 boots my machine hung right after detecting its discs. At first I though it had to do with the new "tickless kernel" option but in the end I wasn't able to solve it. I'm using sata-nv on a all nvidia board. Anyway, just a little heads up for all of you in case you wondered what's so special about .24. ;) Cheers, -G
