Hi folks,
Have any of you experienced X crashing with a SIGABRT anytime a program
using gstreamer attempts to run? I've been stuck on this all day while
rebuilding my workstation.
I originally noticed this while building Cheese. I normally use that to
test my Webcam. When running the meson

This is a development version of the Nouveau driver which is needed to

Hi folks,
I just upgraded my workstation from an Intel Core 2 Duo to an AMD Phenom
X4, and I figured I'd share some notes in case anyone else does this
down the line (this is primarily commentary on Intel->AMD). It's a

Good afternoon folks,
