No problems here, do you have logs?

Reverted to 3.3.3 and it boots up just fine! With 3.3.4 I only get up to the CLI login screen, and a kernel panic happens.

What logs do you need?

If you have a kernel log of the panic in question, perhaps that could indicate where the problem lies.

Don't seem to find any reference to linux-ck 3.3.4 in my kernel.log

kalpik · 2012-04-28 13:55:34

Okay, funny thing.. I just upgraded again to 3.3.4-2 and now it boots up fine

graysky · 2012-04-28 14:27:04

@kalpik - Glad everything is okay. No major differences between the two actually, see: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … 93e5fcbd6d

The broadcom-wl-ck drivers aren't working with my i686 kernel so I reverted back to 3.3.3-1 where they work. Do they need to be recompiled for 3.3.4-2?

graysky · 2012-04-30 21:25:19

@akspecs - done, please let me know if they work now and thanks for the report.

All very nice on ck-corex

Since the 295.40 nVidia driver introduced new bugs I was looking for a way to use the 302.07 beta driver that fixes the problems, this driver came out yesterday.
I was happily supprised to find a package nvidia-beta-ck with nvidia-utils-beta in AUR, already bumped up to 302.07.

Arch is great!

Out of curiosity what bugs have been causing you trouble?

graysky · 2012-05-03 21:21:30

Pushed 295.49 but godaddy sucks right now. I can't update the repo as connections keep timing out. Will continue trying. Please take the nvidia/nvidia-beta discussion into another thread to keep the signal-to-noise up for repo related discussions.

dlin · 2012-05-04 03:33:07

I'm a newbie want to try linux-ck.

# pacman  -S nvidia-ck-kx linux-ck-kx-headers linux-ck-kx
resolving dependencies...
warning: cannot resolve "nvidia-utils=295.49", a dependency of "nvidia-ck-kx"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
      nvidia-ck-kx

Do you want to skip the above package for this upgrade? [y/N]
error: failed to prepare transaction (unexpected error)

Any trick?

By the way, is linux-ck support aufs3? I found there is no aufs2-util in aur.

mynis01 · 2012-05-04 04:28:52

@dlin: nvidia-utils and nvidia-ck are out of sync for the time being until nvidia-utils is updated. You can be patient or you can check out nvidia-utils-beta and nvidia-beta-ck

graysky · 2012-05-04 07:31:02

@dlin - Problem isn't with repo-ck but is with your mirrors. As mynis mentioned, they are out-of-sync. To fix, use reflector to generate an up-to-date mirror list to ensure that you will always have the latest files.

# pacman -S reflector
# chown YOURUSER:users /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

$ reflector -c "United States" -a 1 -f 3 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
# pacman -Syyu

I don't patch linux-ck with aufs3.

dlin · 2012-05-04 09:19:27

@graysky

I don't patch linux-ck with aufs3.

Is there any reason?
Or, could you provide pre-build aufs2-util?
That is missing in AUR now.
Or, is there any method to let me got the aufs2-util PKGBUILD?

graysky · 2012-05-04 09:50:59

@dlin - reason is that no one packaged it. You can do it if you see a gap and have a need.

Well, I'm trying... If there is any news, I'll feedback.
Thanks.

The package section has been removed from the linuc-ck Archwiki. Why?

Hey Graysky, what do you think of enabling pacman xdelta compression on your linux-ck repo? Would that be very difficult?

I use the http://delta.archlinux.fr/$repo/os/$arch repository for all the other packages, that supports deltas. Upgrading the current linux kernel there takes only about 23 MiB instead of 40 MiB... So you might save quite a bit of bandwith.

Of course, it would also be faster for me (and the others that use this feauture) to update. I have veeeryy slooow internet, you know ;-)

graysky · 2012-05-05 10:57:05

rggjan - interesting idea. send me a link with info on enabling it and I will look into it.

rggjan · 2012-05-05 17:12:21

@graysky: Im actually not really sure, but this might help:
http://www.archlinux.org/pacman/pkgdelta.8.html

(depending on how often you expect the users to upgrade, you could make deltas to one or more packages from the past with this)

Maybe one could contact the maintainers of delta.archlinux.org, to ask if there is a more automated way ore some scripts to do the deltas?

btw: thats what has to be done on the client side:

Graysky, I just wanted to say thanks for putting the packages of the linux-ck kernels up so that they're easily obtained. I have now moved 3 (of 4) of my computers over to those kernels and they are running **extremely well.** I can really FEEL the difference in speed on my laptop with the corex version (core i7 Q740). Even though the performance has increased, my temps have actually DECREASED, which is really amazing. I've dropped an average of 5C just from a kernel switch. If there's anyone out there who is hesitating to switch over, I'd say *go for it*, you'll be glad you did.

Anyway, I know you do quite a bit for the community, so I wanted to say thanks. I don't think we could ever properly thank the packagers, maintainers, repo-runners, designers, testers and everyone else involved with this wonderful distribution. The reason Arch is so successful is due to the amazing community that has popped up around it.

Thanks for the kind words. I f< redacted >d up and ran a purge script by mistake so I am in the process of reuploading all 500 MB of the repo. Might take a while at 220 Kbps.

Moderator Edit: Graysky -- You know better. I know you can express yourself without the need for that

Graysky edit: True, but I was pretty pissed at the time. Anyway, everything is repopulated and should be fine now. I also renamed my rsync scripts making it more difficult to make this particular mistake again. Enjoy!
