Is ati-drivers not going to be built against the stock kernel like
previously planned (and maybe moved to extra)? I thought 2.6.13 would
have the correct things compiled as modules and maintaining a
ati-drivers for the stock would probably be easier since stock is
updated less frequently (or so it seems) and it would probably be
easier for the average user. Or is there a problem with doing this?
Just wondering...
Yeah, the initial problem is getting the devs attention for more than 2
seconds to suggest it - there could be other problems besides that
tho... I currently intend to continue the pkg against archck in
[community]. If ati is added to [extra] against stock we'll have to see
what happens...

I'm not sure why you are apologising - I *really* am grateful for the
reminder! It's just that I was not the one that made the last update of
the kernel - someone else did it and did not inform me so I did not know
the ati-drivers needed to be rebuilt. I have already rebuilt them -
they should be in [community] shortly assuming it has not broken
again...or that I have broken it....again....

Sorry about that. I meant they weren't yet rebuilt for the newest
kernel you released. Since you are the maintainer for both the
kernel26archck and ati-drivers, I assume you'll have an updated
ati-drivers package. Personally I don't mind using a modified kernel.
As long as you get from point A to B, you're fine. If I am correct,
you released the latest kernel on 10/2 and the latest ati-drivers on
9/30. I can wait it out, but if you can get an ati-driver pkg out for
this, that would be great. Really appreciate. You're doing a fine job
so far.
Also, out of curiosity, has anyone updated the nforce package for
nforce2 boards? It's funny because after I install the nforce packages
and load the module nvnet for my internet, I still have forcedeth in
use and when I unload that module, internet doesn't work. nforce
doesn't seem to be doing the job with the newer kernels. I don't why.
I have no qualms except I can't set any options in forcedeth that I
could in nvnet (i.e. optimization=1, for CPU load). If anyone could
look into that, that would be awesome.
As always, thanks a lot. I haven't touched windows for a while b/c of
arch (3 months and counting)

That's what happens when people step in and make updates and only do
half a job without even telling you... So much for common courtesy even.
Thanks for the reminder Vivek

Hi all,
After upgrading to the latest kernel26archck to use the ati-drivers
package, I realized that the ati-drivers have yet been rebuilt for the
2.6.13. When I install the ati-drivers package, I get the error:
'error insert /path/to/fglrx.ko invalid module etc.'
I assume the maintainer dibblethewrecker will take care of this asap
b/c I need 3D accel. Without that fglrx module, I'm using the Mesa
modules which I can subsist on, but need ati for other things. Thanks
a bunch.
Vivek
