My nvidia machine is out of order for now, so please sign off both architectures and as many GPUs as possible. I am also interested in signoffs from users, so please don't hesitate to reply to this message to the arch-general list! I can try it today.. but with new nvidias I have always a simple problem with libswf (or sth. similar). I do the symlink by hand than.. But for testing it's nothing more than pacman -Sy testing/nvidia ? -- Gruß, Johannes Täglich http://blog.hehejo.de und du fühlst dich gut. http://cryptocd.eduforge.org/online_version signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I've been using the arch package without any problems for a while now, and didn't have any problems while upgrading previously. Anyways, I cleared the old files and re ran the upgrade, and it works fine now. A small side note..fps values in glxgears seem to have taken a hit.. previously I was getting ~ 15500fps, now with the new drivers I get ~ 14000fps See http://pastebin.archlinux.org/23421 If this fps drop is expected behavior (since glxgears is not a true index of performance), then a signoff for x86_64 from me. Nvidia 7800 GTX for me btw. Varun
