When will beyond modules be updated?

Hi there!

I am currently thinking about switching to beyond due to suspend2 and phc. But for example the ipw3945 module is not updated yet and it is linked against 2.6.19

so when will there be an update?

Re: When will beyond modules be updated?

the 2.6.20 ones gives me errors most likely related to the vga=792 of my grub configuration file. tried to make it lower but that didnt change anything.
also for some reason if i remove the 2.6.19beyond kernel with pacman -Rscn the modules in /usr/lib/modules/2.6.19 didnt get removed on their own as it happens with all other arch kernels i have tried. had to remove em manually to reinstall the it

There shouldn't be any reason to learn more editor types than emacs or vi -- mg (1)

Either the mirror I use (vt.edu, because it's on internet2 like me so it's ludicrously speedy) is outdated, or they took it out of testing. 2.6.19.2-1.1 is the latest version

Re: When will beyond modules be updated?

Because all those patches have to be tested . But since the beyond patchset has gone stable (afaik - the homepage has a .20 tarball), i wonder what's holding i in Arch' testing repos.
