Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900
I think the mirror that had all the packages went down some time ago. It's all somewhat outdated by now and I'm not sure if voice calling works with upstream kernel yet.
Anyway, I can probably put...

Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900
Well, I'd say GMA950 should work better than poulsbo, and the driver is open source and all features should be supported. However, some say it's a PITA to get working, some say it's too slow for...

I'd skip that one and get something decent instead. You'll probably never get a driver with support for video/3D acceleration. I've understood that it does work pretty well unaccelerated these days...

fbdev-driver you have is not compiled for Xorg 1.14, try pacman -Syu and if there is no updated version, you need to pass -ignoreABI to Xorg, chances are it may even work.
For the SGX...
