Re: Why the driverpack massstorage no update?

I really really really (x1000) appreciate the work that goes into DriverPacks, i swear by them!

However, using the MassStorage stable release from January 2009 is becoming less useful by the month... it would be really really (x1000) good for users to be able to easily find the nightly packs so they have the option of trying out the latest packs (and so we can also give feedback) ... i understand that the normal nightlies server has issues that we are all waiting on for a fix, but it appears that there are alternate locations for nightlies ... is it possible to know where they are?

THANKS!

Re: Why the driverpack massstorage no update?

Well the good news is that the dpms is up to release candidate stage.  Hopefully it won't be long now.
Mass Storage is THE most difficult of the DriverPacks to get right.  We really can't afford any mistakes.

So that's a no?

Why can't we use the old nightlies server until the current one is fixed? This is the address i have:


I am already using Base version 10.04.01rc and have been for a while now with no problems whatsoever, and i was using (an old) nightly build of the MassStorage packs also with no probs. I think it was a January 2010 release (i have this info at home, am at work currently).

All i wanted to do was try out the latest nightly build ... i have a machine i can try it out on that the stable release version of MassStorage doesn't work on.  I promise to provide verbose feedback if i can just get my sticky fingers on driverpack gold!

Thanks in advance ... i think ...

Re: Why the driverpack massstorage no update?

apparently you already know where the nightlies are... thats them... have at!
(you looked in the /Nightlies/NT5/ folder right?)

We NEVER post those links out in the open... Google must have a dedicated bot just for this site wink.

The old nightly server is on NightmareHost er I mean Dreamhost... we have been trying to eliminate them for a year now. and no we are not ever going back, not for any reason... period.

the only problem with the nighliy server is/was related to mozilla type browsers, useing IE works fine

Re: Why the driverpack massstorage no update?

we don't have any "updated" builds... just betas / alphas

We don't post those in the public forum. We have a testing team for evaluating the nightlies.
