LINUX_PLUGIN to the new path

I've just fully updated my Arch using pacman's parameter -Syu

After the completion there is a message:

.....
warning: /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist installed as /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.pacnew
......
>>> The kernel-mode plugin has a new place.
>>> It's now located under /usr/lib/rp-pppop/rp-pppoe.so
>>> Change LINUX_PLUGIN to the new path in your /etc/ppp/pppoe.conf
.....

What I am supposed to do ?

ps: Where is located the logs from the booting procedure ? I think that there are some messages when I power on the Arch, and I want to find them out.

Re: LINUX_PLUGIN to the new path

when you get .pacnew files, you should either merge the changes in (/etc/group.pacnew, etc) if there are new features etc. or replace the old file (in the case of mirrorlist)

the pppoe message just wants you to open /etc/ppp/pppoe.conf with an editor and change the path following the LINUX_PLUGIN option to /usr/lib/rp-pppop/rp-pppoe.so - if you don't use pppoe you could either ignore the message or remove pppoe

Re: LINUX_PLUGIN to the new path

thank you very much thestringer.
I have replaced the mirrorlist with the pacnew one.

I don't use pppoe, so I ignore the message

I've been looking into /var/log/errors.log and I found this:

Date, time etc:      Intel AES-NI instructions are not detected

Should I install these AES-NI instructions ?
