[arch-dev-public] 2.6.21-rc6-git2 please test!
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 thanks greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org

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. Jason

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/ T.

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)
Hi i guess too that rc7 is the last rc, but you never know what linus does ;) just bump ndiswrapper, we will rebuid it for .21 series then. Sound issues: the snd_hda seems to get the most changes atm some got panics, after bumping it some don't get any sound, really strange, will look at it more in depth on weekend. greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Developer & Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org tpowa@archlinux.org
