<h4>Build-Notes</h4> |
| 31 |
<h4>Larch</h4> |
| 32 |
Chakra GNU/Linux uses Larch8 series now. |
| 33 |
<h4>GTK2+</h4> |
| 34 |
This image is gtk2 free, so you will miss flashplugin in this image. Also you can't start nvidia-settings since it<br> |
| 35 |
needs gtk2 too. Use nvidia-xconfig instead. You can always install missing packages with pacman/cinstall from our repositories.<br> |
| 36 |
<br> |
| 37 |
Read more about gtk-freeness <a href="http://chakra-project.org/bbs/viewtopic.php?id=2787">here</a>.<br> |
| 38 |
<h4>Debug Packages</h4> |
| 39 |
Now you can install debug-packages for KDE SC again. Just type this cmd: sudo pacman -Sy kde-debug<br> |
| 40 |
<h4>Log Packages</h4> |
| 41 |
Now you can install log-packages for some of the packages in our desktop repository. Just type this cmd: sudo pacman -Sy chakra-log<br> |
| 42 |
<h4>VGA_SWITCHEROO and ACPI_CALL</h4> |
| 43 |
With this release we support <a href="http://asusm51ta-with-linux.blogspot.com/">vga_switcheroo</a> and <a href="http://linux-hybrid-graphics.blogspot.com/2010/07/using-acpicall-module-to-switch-onoff.html">acpi_call</a>.<br> |
| 44 |
Please help us with testing laptops with hybrid-cards. To test if you can switch on/off your discrete graphics card using "test_off.sh".<br> |
