Not specifically familiar with the package (I have a thing about closed |
| 11 |
source kernel modules, I won't run them, or why did I bother switching |
| 12 |
from closed source MS after a decade of using it, to open source Linux... |
| 13 |
I choose to run a Radeon using the free xorg drivers), but possibly he's |
| 14 |
running ~arch and you are running stable arch? There are also occasionally |
| 15 |
newer packages still hard masked, available for anyone willing to risk the |
| 16 |
stability of their system enough to unmask them, possibly keyword them |
| 17 |
locally, and merge them. |
