I like very much this app, and I don't think I'm the only one. Or at least move it to [community] and not AUR, 'cause I don't want to compile this every time I make a new installation.

[arch-general] Netcfg status
by Stan 16 May '11

Hi guys. Wanna know about netcfg package status. In latest git there is very important variable - HIDDEN, which allows to connect to hidden networks without PRE_UP="iwconfig <interface> <AP_NAME>" hack. How soon it'll be in repos?

Re: [arch-general] AUR deletion request

Thomas, if you simply surf to http://is.gd/Tn8wBO,and omit the last four packages (because they do not begin with "archtrack"), you will have your list with links. Evangelos, the reason for the deletion is that I'm refactoring my approach and these packages are no longer needed. They really just psuedo-packages anyway. Btw, why is it that package maintainers can't just delete their own packages?

Re: [arch-general] ArchLinux for mipsel (Loongson)

Hello everyone, Update 1.Homepage: http://www.archloong.info 2.Docs: http://www.archloong.info/archlinux/other/docs/ Currently, this system just release base system, users can install software from mirror server. The desktop environment LXDE and many softwares is works. This base system contain kernel26, it works well on all series Lemote 2F machines and Loongson 3A machine (need change kernel). I will build more and more programs for this architecture, and create an AUR for users. Looks its porformance is more than Debian mipsel. Best regards!
