[Slackbuilds-users] nvidia-kernel

2011-08-27 Thread King Beowulf 
Submitted the nvidia-kernel 280.13 update and ran into a glitch: per this
lists recommendation, I created /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia.conf to
automatically load the nvidia module if /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d is empty and
there is no xorg.conf.  The consensus was that anything in the latter
locations will override 10-nvidia.conf. This was decided so that driver
upgrades would not break any local customizations.

However, the one setting that does not override is "Coolbits."  If I specify
Coolbits in 10-nvidia.conf, I can adjust the fan speed (see below); if I
leave it out, I cannot adjust the speed even though xorg.conf has the
correct entries.  The device section in xorg.conf appears to be ignored if
it also appear in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d.  Deleting
/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia.conf restored the normal function of
xorg.conf (and presumably xorg.conf.d)

Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
BoardName  "GeForce GT 430"
Option "Coolbits" "5"
EndSection

Recommendation: delete /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-nvidia.conf if you need
to use xorg.conf and/or xorg.conf.d otherwise you should be ok if you use
nvidia-settings fro all adjustments.

I'll send in a patch for the readme ASAP once I figure out how to say it in
an concise and still accurate manner.

[Slackbuilds-users] Frostwire update

2011-08-27 Thread King Beowulf 
Heads up.  I have just submitted a version bump for Frostwire.  If you are
like me and loose track of updates, please note that the 5.x series has
dropped gnutella support and is now a a bittorrent only search engine.
Therefore, if you need gnutella support, stick with the latest 4.x or switch
to another client.

01-AUG-2011
http://frostwire.wordpress.com/2011/08/01/frostwire-5-bittorrent-so-simple/

With the landscape of file sharing shifting to BitTorrent we saw the
opportunity build up on it’s strengths and to make
the BitTorrent experience a lot easier and simpler, one that your mom can
handle.  We dropped Gnutella search and
replaced it with the curated indexes of major HTTP BitTorrent Search Engines
(and we’ll keep adding more with each release).
The results are instant search results, and no spam or fakes.

-Ed

You are faster. I need it for different things as well.

[Slackbuilds-users] PyPy SlackBuild

2011-08-27 Thread Audrius Kažukauskas 
Hi,

At the beginning of this year I submitted PyPy 
(version 1.4.1) build script to SBo, but it was rejected due to build
issues.  I decided to wait until the next version (1.5), which
eventually was released, but now I couldn't build it myself.  After
reporting the problem to developers, it got fixed in recently released
version 1.6.  PyPy builds fine now for me (both 32- and 64-bit
versions).

It's just that I'm not sure if I want to submit the build script again.
The reason is this: PyPy takes a lot of time and memory to build.  And I
don't want to create more work for SBo admins, who are already busy with
never-ending queue of new submissions.  So I'm just going to leave a
link to PyPy SlackBuild for those interested:

  https://bitbucket.org/audriusk/slackbuilds/src/83b994606664/python/pypy/

And if you don't want to spend few hours building it (or don't have
enough RAM), but still want to try it out, here are Slackware packages I
made:

  https://bitbucket.org/audriusk/slackbuilds/downloads/pypy-1.6-i486-2ak.txz
  https://bitbucket.org/audriusk/slackbuilds/downloads/pypy-1.6-x86_64-2ak.txz

Of course, you have to trust me to use them. ;-)

A note about 32-bit package: for some reason it haven't got linked
against libffi (probably environment issues, as I built it in 32-bit LXC
container on 64-bit host), but it still should be usable, as libffi is
only used for C extensions AFAIK (and compiling those is still
considered experimental).

If "source" files are usual .py files, ideally they should go to
/usr/lib{,64}/python2.6/site-packages, but I suspect this is not the
case with PyCXX.

I also think option 2 is nicer, but if it creates more troubles for
PyCXX users, it's probably better to stick with defaults, as ugly as
they are.
