Now that I look more thoroughly it seems that 4L is only dynamically linked to lightscribe, but I have to look better at it. $srcdir and $pkgdir done > >Can you please explain what EDA and GPGPU means?

GPGPU is General Purpose GPU which allows to use the GPU as a kind of CPU, they must be programmed differently, an example of this could be nvidia CUDA, amd/ati close to metal, or use OpenGL's GLSL (GL Shader Language) vendor neutral in theory. > >Seems you haven't made a PKGBUILD for it, would make it easier to >install... *hint* ;) > It just recently got to a somewhat "usable" status in which segmentation faults are not the norm.
