I didn't see Ionut Biru's post, and actually not being a gnome user I'm surprised I opened one from this thread. But the bit about "NVIDIA users be aware" kinda caught my eye.
Since the version of xorg in question is "from testing" I suspect I've nothing to worry about and that it wouldn't wind up in the main repo while its still "incompatible". But since I know for a fact that my PC's built in Nvidia adapter is extremely incompatible with nouveau, I'd like to understand what and where this "Ignorepkg" is?
