Welcome to Arch!
+
+ You've reached the website for Arch Linux, a lightweight
+ and flexible Linux® distribution that tries to Keep It Simple.
+
+ Currently we have official packages optimized for the i686 and x86-64
+ architectures. We complement our official package sets with a
+ community-operated package repository
+ that grows in size and quality each and every day.
+
+ Our strong community is diverse and helpful, and we pride ourselves on
+ the range of skillsets and uses for Arch that stem from it. Please
+ check out our forums and
+ mailing lists
+ to get your feet wet. Also glance through our wiki
+ if you want to learn more about Arch.

As many of you may have noticed, support for the
+ catalyst ATI Linux driver, has been moved to the AUR (Arch Linux User
+Repository). This was partly due to lack of motivation from the
+maintainer in charge of the package and lack of support from AMD to the

The upcoming version of xorg-server will have a
+lot of workarounds and patches removed. Doing so, the package becomes
+easier to understand, as even its maintainer has no idea what is
+happening anymore. When upgrading to xorg-server-1.6, you will see these
+ file conflicts on most systems: error: failed to prepare transaction
+(conflicting files) xorg-server:
+/usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions/libdri.so exists in filesystem
+xorg-server: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so ...

The original archlinux-2009.02-ftp-i686.img USB
+image was broken, a new image (archlinux-2009.02-2-ftp-i686.img) has
+been uploaded. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused
+you. With one image broken, we also had to create new torrents: We now

+following features: - Kernel 2.6.28 - Ext4 support. Installation can be
+done on a ext4 root ...

+update, backup your ~/.kde4 configuration dir and start with a clean
+config. Take a look at old plasmoids, they might not work with the new
+Plasma. You ...
