This release brings major improvements.

Because of namely @joshskidmore whom is able to provide binaries for the kernel and more, regularly, and with the patch needed to boot live. The build process can be simplified.

So in the future if a new update comes to the kernel that is an improvement to the install, a new build can be built and released in tens of minutes.

Bigger than that, that change trickles down to the installed system. From this release we provide @joshskidmore repository by default. If you wish to upgrade your existing arch install to his repo the steps are.

  1. remove your current repo from /etc/pacman.conf (or comment it out)

  2. add the following repo

    [gpd-pocket-arch]
    SigLevel = Never
    Server = https://github.com/joshskidmore/gpd-pocket-arch/raw/master

  3. run these commands to upgrade and swap the packages correctly

    sudo pacman -Suy gpd-pocket-alsa-lib gpd-pocket-linux-jwrdegoede-docs gpd-pocket-linux-jwrdegoede-headers gpd-pocket-support gpd-pocket-scrolling
    sudo pacman -R linux-jwrdegoede linux-jwrdegoede-docs linux-jwrdegoede-headers
