I will add an udev rule that I've found in Debian for setting keyboard configuration from /etc/sysconfig. Also, I've upgraded Mesa and libdrm to latest versions today. They should be available when book renders again. You can also do svn clone and build book for yourself if you want. As for nouveau, it isn't still stable enough, especially for newer cards since Nvidia is not willing to publish it's specifications. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
