x/xorg-server-21.1.13-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
Patched changing a type from unsigned long to unsigned long long which fixes
the black screen seen on 32-bit with the modesetting driver. Seems fine on
64-bit as well, so the patch is applied for all builds. The patch to default
to modesetting for Intel graphics is restored (and the one for nouveau is kept
as well).
Thanks to Lenard Spencer for reporting that nouveau was also hitting this.
Thanks to Petri Kaukasoina for the patch.

On 32-bit, using the modesetting driver with Intel graphics is resulting in
a black screen (observed here with CoffeeLake-H GT2), so on 32-bit only let's
stop applying the patch that was making xorg-server use modesetting by
default. Thanks to LuckyCyborg and Petri Kaukasoina.

Hey folks, here's that graphics stack upgrade that you've been waiting for!
After looking at what drivers are currently shipped by other projects, I took
an axe to the driver list. Some of the removed drivers will still compile even
though they are abandoned, and some of the others are still getting git commits
(which allows *some* of them to compile). The removed stuff mostly looks
obsolete to me (we really can't support ancient hardware forever). But if you
think I've gone too far with any of these removals, please make or contribute
to a thread about it on LQ and I'll take any comments there into consideration.

Hey folks, a little status update here. First, huge thanks are due to
nobodino for helping to shake out packages that weren't building from source.
With all those fixes in place (plus a few more), we have tested and found that
everything in the tree compiles cleanly against glibc-2.32. So, the plan is to
have another mass rebuild soon against that. Although the ABI didn't
technically change, I've heard that libpthread may not be 100% compatible in
some corner cases, so we'll err on the side of caution. Hopefully we can get a
little testing done on the recompiled system and then go through it all again
at the beginning of next month when glibc-2.33 is released. Other than that,
how's Mesa working these days? If there are still issues that are resolved by
dropping back to the previous branch, let's try to figure those out. I'd rather
not revert Mesa unless there's no other choice. I'm hoping that the (probably
unrelated) issues with Intel video hardware will be helped by today's
xorg-server patch that uses the modesetting driver with newer chipsets. Please
report any improvement on the LQ thread.
Beta approaches. :-)

l/libzip-1.5.1-x86_64-4.txz: Rebuilt.
Make sure that the API-CHANGES file is included in the package documentation.
x/xf86-video-r128-6.11.0-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
x/xorg-server-1.20.0-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
Applied some patches that other distributions have been using for a while:
Fix glamor so that the return value from glamor_fds_from_pixmap matches
what's expected (thanks to Darth Vader for pointing out these patches).
Autobind secondary GPUs to the master as output sink / offload source. This
seems like a beneficial patch until/unless DEs start to handle this.
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:

x/xorg-server-xephyr-1.20.0-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.

x/xorg-server-xvfb-1.20.0-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.
isolinux/initrd.img: Rebuilt.
Use ter-v14v.psf.gz as the consolefont. It supports more character sets, and
the larger font was causing wraparound on UEFI (at least on bare metal here).
kernels/*: Upgraded.
usb-and-pxe-installers/usbboot.img: Rebuilt.
a/kernel-generic-4.14.47-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
a/kernel-huge-4.14.47-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
SCSI_DPT_I2O m -> y
SCSI_ISCI m -> y (thanks to wael_h)
a/kernel-modules-4.14.47-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
a/pkgtools-15.0-noarch-14.txz: Rebuilt.
installpkg: rarely, an uncompressed size that's not quite to the next level
(e.g., 1020K) will exceed the expected length and cause a --terse line to
be one character longer than --terselength. Chop lines to --terselength
before outputting them. The trailing ']' might be dropped, but no big deal.
ap/slackpkg-2.83.0-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.
Release 2.83.0; thanks to orbea, Didier Spaier, burdi01, David Allen,
Eduard Rozenberg, and Stuart Winter for various fixes and enhancements.
Allow using vimdiff to compare .new and original files
Numerous fixups for alternate $ROOT
.new config files are sorted so that display order should be consistent
among multiple machines
Abort operation if system date is near epoch (mostly relevant for ARM
machines and others with no RTC)
Update Slackware ARM gpg key
Update Slackware ARM mirror list
No longer offer to run lilo - simply advise user that the kernel image has
changed and give advice, but also require a keypress to (hopefully) confirm
that the message was actually read
mandoc lint fixes to slackpkg.8
Warn user if a -current mirror is selected (but only warn once)
d/git-2.17.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
d/kernel-headers-4.14.47-x86-1.txz: Upgraded.
d/rust-1.26.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
k/kernel-source-4.14.47-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded.
l/fftw-3.3.8-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
l/imagemagick-6.9.9_48-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
n/network-scripts-15.0-noarch-8.txz: Rebuilt.
Allow setting an interface in promiscuous mode; this is needed for networking
to function properly in containers
Fixup setting of IPALIASES (allow non /32 masks; not only is the /32 mask not
required and even undesirable in some cases, this makes ipv6 support easier
to integrate (and Darren is working on that as well)
Thanks to Darren Austin.
n/stunnel-5.46-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
n/ulogd-2.0.7-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt.
Fixed empty logrotate file.

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 combines modern components, ease of use, and flexible
configuration... our "KISS" philosophy demands it.
