I have no special setup. Kernel is running fine, only new message in dmesg is: EXT4-fs (sdb1): Ignoring delalloc option - requested data journaling mode EXT4-fs (sdb1): mounted filesystem with journalled data mode I can't remember that this message was there before. The partition is an ext3 partition mounted as ext4. Apart from those two messages is everything fine. -Daniel

this makes me curious. how do you test this? dmesg > dmesg-before <upgrade and reboot> dmesg > dmesg-after diff dmesg-* ? or is there a better way? what's the recommended approach too see "what's new" ? Dieter

I've built libdrm, mesa, xorg-server + xf86-video-ati(gitshot) to support KMS. It starts in kms mode on my laptop but Xorg quickly freezes. This is probably caused by my not well supported chip X200m and should work much better with most other cards. People with KMS issues can still append "radeon.modeset=0" to the kernel boot line. We need feedback for Ati and KMS and I need a way do get something helpful into my system logs. -Andy
Broken binary modules: - lirc,fcpcmcia,madwifi,tiacx though no fix available yet. fcpcmcia fixed! Needs to rebuild: - 686 modem binary modules fixed and uploaded!
