I heard that with my bad ear... .. !

Excellent! What's the address?

I don't think anyone was criticizing graysky. My post was just making sure it hadn't been forgotten since the files had been on the server for hours, it's easy to miss a step occasionally.

Address will be published when it's live.

No content anyway. Waiting for graysky to login and do it his way

My post was not addressed to you specifically. Just that I know how frustrating it can be trying to upgrade linux-ck with the above mentioned issues.

Proinsias · 2014-06-18 01:49:58

Thank you for taking the time & effort graysky. My decade old celeron laptop seems very happy with the pentm ck kernel and even with the 20 mins of fannying about trying to get it downloaded it's a huge difference to the 7hr or so compile time from the AUR last week.

Hey, one question. I installed linux-ck-haswell and linux-ck-haswell-headers. How do I actually boot into the ck kernel now instead of the default one?

bstaletic · 2014-06-26 09:18:20

Update your bootloader configuration so you have another menu entry to boot linux-ck.

WorMzy · 2014-06-26 09:19:17

That depends on the boot loader/manager you're using.

Nordic89 · 2014-06-26 09:55:58

Thanks for the replies. I'm using gummiboot, and just added it and tried booting into it. Everything seemed to work, but for some reason, the slim login manager wasn't started, and my keymap was also reset to default. Any idea how to fix this?

You need to install the driver for your graphics card, compiled for -ck (nvidia-ck for example).

Damn, that was it. Thanks a lot!

edit: The kernels in graysky's repo are using bfs instead of cfs by default, correct?

No you have to enable BFS manually:

BFS != BFQ

Hahaha oops!

Every time I download packages form repo-ck, the server quits the connection after some time (about after a minute of downloading or so...). Then I have to rerun the pacman command to finish the whole process of downloading and installing respectively upgrading, which actually works in the end, but is kinda annoying and my pacman.log looks thus like a mess.

Any Idea why the repo-ck server acts that way? Btw. this "quit connection after some time of instant downloading"-thing only happens with the repo-ck server, with other unofficial signed repos like infinality-bundle from bohoomil for example, I don't run into such issues, so imo this is likely to be a pure server or network problem, isn't it?

That issue has been discussed several times in this thread. See this option on the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Re … _regularly

cju · 2014-06-30 07:07:46

Oh, thanks and sorry, I just missed that one.

graysky · 2014-07-02 23:57:26

Updated to 3.15.3-1 with ck1 but I will not be around much due to a family reunion we are hosting over the 4th of July holiday. As usual, users wanting to "old" version, 3.14.10-1 in this case, may find it in the archive section of http://repo-ck.com

cju · 2014-07-03 18:21:50

Thanks for your awesome work, but there seems to be a dependency issue w/ virtualbox-ck-guest-modules that prevents me from upgrading:

:: virtualbox-ck-guest-modules-kx: requires linux-ck-kx<3.15

Edit: Congrats to 6.666 posts btw.

That looks to me as a workaround, cju was asking what was the cause of this problem. It is the server?

Lockheed · 2014-07-04 14:13:57

@graysky,
Could you include F2FS support in the next kernel release? With growing number of devices using it (namely - mobile phones), it would be useful to be able to access/manage it from a PC.

The config for the kernels in repo-ck are based off of the Arch configs. So it should be enabled already. You will still need the progs that go with that support though.

Have you tried? Because I just checked and the configs included in the AUR's linux-ck package provide f2fs support...

Yes, it is the host servers (godaddy) being a pain in the ass.

It's been enabled since the 3.10 series of kernels (I know because I maintained that branch of the lts kernel, and still do).

Well, I tried in two ways:
1.

cat /proc/filesystems

returns supported filesystems and f2fs is not among them

2. run gparted on a f2fs filesystem - it was not recognised.

Have you read the Wiki page for f2fs?

claire ~ % cat /proc/filesystems | grep f2fs
1 claire ~ % sudo modprobe f2fs                                        :(
[sudo] password for claire: 
claire ~ % cat /proc/filesystems | grep f2fs
	f2fs
claire ~ %

As I said, the support's been there since at least the 3.10 kernel (and probably earlier).

Well, this is strange. I have a core2 -ck kernel from repo-ck, and all I (not) get is this:

$ cat /proc/filesystems | grep f2fs
$ sudo cat /proc/filesystems | grep f2fs
[sudo] password for juha: 
$
