thx graysky, works fine here

It's too bad these packages weren't available in some sort of testing repository for a solid week and a half.

@falconindy -

Thank you for all the time you and rest of dev-team puts into making Arch was awesome as it is. My comment was a minor bump in the road, no offensive intended.

Hi greysky,
could you maybe provide the PKGBUILD for nvidia-ck-corex? I am having suspend problems with the 302 version which was not there with 259. But the lib->usr/lib move is only compatible with 302 atm. I think I could figure out the transition from lib to usr/lib for the 259 nvidia-ck-corex package if I had the PKGBUILD...

Thank you!
mfs

@mfs - I keep old versions on the repo, see the links under the pic. You can eaisly modify one of the 259 PKGBUILDs to work with the new /usr/lib stuff. Just diff the new one against the archived one and build it yerself. You will of course need to modify the deps to want 'linux-ck-corex' since you are running that. PM me if you run into trouble.

mfs · 2012-07-14 18:45:39

Just after I had finished modifying the PKGBUILD it came to my mind that I can actually just re-install the 259 nvidia-ck-corex package after the glibc upgrade, because it leaves /lib as a link to /usr/lib :-) So the nvidia-ck-corex package 295.59-1 just installs fine.

Thanks anyway!

graysky · 2012-07-14 19:12:02

Ah, this is true... I guess one is technically correct while the other is not. The end result is the same however. Enjoy.

does your linux-ck repo work on chakra?

graysky · 2012-07-18 18:53:45

No idea... How different is he default kernel package for that distro?

mumpf · 2012-07-20 15:58:20

My old Athlon XP (my only PC) now runs with linux-ck-kx, not any problems to swap to this kernel using the repo, thanks.
I just wonder whether or not it makes sense to swap from nouveau to nvidia and nvidia-ck-kx with my nvidia 6200, which does not support vdpau anyway. Any experience (performance, stabiltiy wise)?

I have always found the pripriatary nv drivers to give higher framerate than the OS drivers. As well, better power savings. It's a matter of personal preference really.

I know you mean 'proprietary nvidia drivers', but nv drivers are opensource ;P

Sorry... Either nouveau or nvidia.

mumpf · 2012-07-23 15:34:14

I have installed nvidia-ck-kx, but now I can't start x any longer
fatal error: no screens found (I have uninstalled nvidia).

Here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=139130 I've found this
" then reinstalled nvidia-ck and modprobed it within the -ck kernel"

What does that mean?

Edit: I have removed the xorg.conf and now I can run xorg again. I don't know why, but after the removal of nvidia I got un error: nvidia-ck-kx-302.17-3: signature from graysky is invalid. That's why I set Siglevel = Never in order to be able to install nvidia-ck-kx.

Hmm... checks out for me. Not sure what to make of that. Try manually removing the package from your cache, update the db and reinstall. Does that work?

# rm -f /var/cache/pacman/pkg/nvidia-ck-kx*
# pacman -Syy
# pacman -S nvidia-ck-kx

mumpf · 2012-07-23 18:05:54

with the Siglevel = Never I was able to install nvidia-ck-kx. I will test your hints, when I reactivate the signatures again, thanks you.

I asked Chakra guys whether it support 3rd-party repo/kernel from Arch, and they said no. I like stable and pure Qt/KDE distro, but I also like your kernel. It's really hard to choose.

graysky · 2012-07-24 07:00:33

@enihcam - you can always modify their PKGBUILD to patch it with CK's stuff...

big_bum · 2012-07-24 17:59:45

Or you can try running -ck in your Chakra distribution. Worth tryin'.

I had a quick look at their PKGBUILD and didn't think they transitioned lib --> usr/lib yet. Dunno what other differences are present either... better he modify a Chakra PKGBUILD with the ck stuff and build that up than drop in our stuff.

"
But to answer the question about using any Arch repo, simple no. Arch and Chakra are not compatible, complete separate repo's, separate update schedules, different package naming, different install directories (as I'm sure you noticed the glibc update moved everything in Arch to /usr/lib). Soon there will a different package manager too.

any chance to ship your other packages (asd, psd, lirc-ck, modprobed_db, hosts_update) within the ck repo. or do you maintain any other repos?

graysky · 2012-07-29 14:32:48

@broken pipe - I don't want to mess with lirc-ck since I have 10 different cpu flavors/arch combos in the repo currently. Take a look at my build script on github and you'll see that adding one is very tedious, deps arrays, conflicts arrays, etc. etc.

@graysky, I see that 3.4.7 has the HZ timing set to 300, like 3.4.6. Until CK makes a new patch, we are stuck with the CONFIG_HZ=300?

graysky · 2012-08-06 07:35:00

@big_bum - yep
