Wow, it looks like most of the work remains to be is done for amd64 and i386.  This transition may take some time.

(I forgot to refresh the URL -- now I see that it is mostly done.)

What is the advice for nvidia binary blob users -- do we still need to wait for that task?

Due to the slow-motion mode my mouse went to over days ago on my siduction install, I  made a d-u right now.
Everything went fine. Seems the battery has to be exchanged or?

[mylo]

yes, seems that mouse no works normal...

If you're using the nvidia 331 package provided by the sidcution repo, it will be okay since 331.38 supports Xserver 1.15. I just upgraded and rebooted myself using said blob.

Just downloading for a d-u, nothing to be removed on my system any more, for now?

Before d-u:

Code: [Select]

After d-u, everything works fine:

Code: [Select]

Graphics:  Card: NVIDIA GT218M [NVS 3100M] bus-ID: 01:00.0
           X.Org: 1.15.0 drivers: nouveau (unloaded: fbdev,vesa) Resolution: 1440x900@60.1hz
