Re: Outdated package versions question
Hi, thanks for the tip. I couldn't get nodejs to install from sourcery the first couple of times, in fact I couldn't even find it in the beginning, but eventually it installed. For what I am trying to do, I had to update python past v3.5.1, so I had to build that from source too. But that went fast....

Outdated package versions question
General question, but many of the packages in both slapt-get and Sourcery are outdated. I had to build vim from source in order to use the plugin manager I wanted to use. I am now faced with building node[js] from source for one of my vim plugins to work correctly, and also for web-dev related work....

Arm architecture release 14.1?
Hi, I'm wondering if there is a 14.2 release for Arm? I have a Pinebook 11" on order and I notice the latest release is 14.01 ( http://download.salixos.org/arm/ ). I understand that this is a community release, but there exists a 14.2 Slackware release ( http://arm.slackware.com/installation/ )...

Is the enialis.net mirror down for good?
I set up Salix to use the mirror http://salix.enialis.net/ but it seems like it has been down for a while (a few weeks?). Couldn't ping the address either. I edited my slapt-getrc and slapt-getsrcrc to use a different mirror. If enialis is down for good I wanted to bring it to the attention of whome...

Re: Nvidia driver istallation woes (or no displayport / hdmi signal)
Yes, sorry, LVDS is my laptop's built in screen and DP-0 is the external (well the port to it at least). I don't think the monitor reports it's resolution back to the PC. When I used my job's Windows PC I had to manually tell Windows the resolution, it wasn't recognized there either, but I was able ...

Re: Nvidia driver istallation woes (or no displayport / hdmi signal)
YOU did it super awesome Salix forum people! Thanks @gapan & @galmei ! Having upgraded the kernel packages as in my previous post I was able to install the nvidia driver and now the monitor shows up no problem. Only thing to do now is to straighten out the resolution, the monitor is 4k but it's ...

Re: Nvidia driver istallation woes (or no displayport / hdmi signal)
@minosa yes I have the kernel source installed, that is where the error that appears on screen but not in the installer log tells me that it is a problem that the kernel source was built with gcc 5.5 instead of 5.3. No idea how to go about fixing that, except maybe to downgrade, delete kernel source...
