rc.6: it was reported by birdboy that JFS is not properly unmounted unless
the order of unmounting local filesystems followed by remounting the root
filesystem read-only is inverted. I tried that, and although it did get rid
of a "/ filesystem is busy" error during shutdown, the JFS / filesystem was
still checked at boot (and found to be clean). I believe that the existing
order of unmounting non-root filesystems followed by remounting the root
filesystem as read-only is the correct order, and found that putting
another sync between these also gets rid of the error on shutdown, so I've
done that. When using JFS as the root filesystem there's still another
similar error message that's generated earlier in the boot, though. I'm
unable to find any way to shut down a JFS root partition in a way that
leaves it clean enough that fsck will not check it at boot, but it is always
found to be clean so this should only be cosmetic. I recall this behavior of
JFS going all the way back to when it was first added to the kernel. If
anyone has a better fix, I'll take a look at it, but in my opinion it's not
really anything to worry about.

Use the ter-114v terminus font. It has been reported that the font we were
using (ter-v14v) restricts the available console colors from 16 to 8 due
to needing an extra bit for the higher number of available glyphs (though
in testing here I couldn't see any difference). The new font covers
ISO8859-1, ISO8859-15, and Windows-1252 codepages. I'm still not sure it's
the best choice, so additional input is welcomed.

a/sysvinit-2.90-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
sysvinit-2.90 added an undocumented feature that tries to spawn agetty
if it sees console= in the kernel command line. Avoiding the debate about
whether this code belongs in init at all, at least such a change should
be documented, and probably made opt-in. This patch disables the new
behavior unless "sysvinit_agetty" is also seen in the kernel command line.
It seems like this might have been something added for Hurd, and it might
be wise to stick to what we've got rather than following upstream on this
particular package. If anyone notices any other odd behavior, please let
me know. Thanks to shastah.

For nvidia cards, if they are GeForce 8 or newer use the modesetting driver
by default. Seems to be recommmended by upstream where they indicate that
fixes going into nouveau are primarily to target older cards for legacy
support and that the modesetting ddx is preferable for newer ones:

Slackware 14.2 x86_64 stable is released!
The long development cycle (the Linux community has lately been living in
"interesting times", as they say) is finally behind us, and we're proud to
announce the release of Slackware 14.2. The new release brings many updates
and modern tools, has switched from udev to eudev (no systemd), and adds
well over a hundred new packages to the system. Thanks to the team, the
upstream developers, the dedicated Slackware community, and everyone else
who pitched in to help make this release a reality.
The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD. Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com. We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.
Have fun! :-)

Slackware 14.0 x86_64 stable is released!
We're perfectionists here at Slackware, so this release has been a long
time a-brewing. But we think you'll agree that it was worth the wait.
Slackware 14.0 combines modern components, ease of use, and flexible
configuration... our "KISS" philosophy demands it.
