I guess you ought to crack on an do it then

Weekend project soon.. takes about that long to rebuild it all on v5.

Actually I'm just going to cheat, in a way. Added -fno-strict-volatile-bitfields to makepkg.conf C/CXXFLAGS and I'm plowing through KDE stuff on v7h. Will make the adjustments to v5 and start building there after today's round of updates finishes. That flag essentially does the same thing that the patch accomplishes, and is how I was building KDE packages manually before, only now it finally clicked to add it to makepkg.conf.

Everything totally works now, v7 and v5 on rpi. Great job.
Also I fount a fix for stability on smsc95xx, no freeze on big downloads. USB has major problems, can't even run a Bluetooth keyboard.

Good to hear about the KDE stuff. Are you using a powered USB hub? Might be a power thing?

Hi guys. Any ideas how to get a hold of one or two RaspberryPis? I wanna mess with Qt5 on it too.

They're not officially released yet, but there should be more info about them in November and how to get one.

[ILF]

That I know, I was hoping on some pre-release samples .

[kmihelich]

All of the KDE software, including the kdeedu stuff, should be good to go in the repo.

Know of any other specifics they're looking for software-wise? Would be nice to be especially sure that we're solid.

If this gadget really takes off, it might pay to have it's own v6 hard float repo (and if they provide hf drivers)?
KDE words fine, just takes 30 minutes to upgrade.
