+<span style="color:red;font-size:120%;">
+Attention: This section targeted at developers, not at users. <br/>
+If you have problems with this stuff, just remove nvidia-tegra package.<br/>
+<br/>
+</span>
+</HTML>
+As for now, you should downgrade you xorg-server package cause of use-pixman-glyph-cache.patch [[https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/32612|bug 32612]] \\
+in newer (1.13.0-4 and 1.13.0.901-1) package versions to avoid font rendering problems.\\
+Latest known working version 1.13.0-3 available in **fly-ac100** repo (see below)\\
+\\
+Also, good gles2 experience could be achieved only with 3.1.10-l4t-r2 kernel, that does not support suspend/resume functionality on ac100 (as for me at least).
+===Lets start===
+You may add repo **fly-ac100** into you **/etc/pacman.conf** to get some prebuilded kernels, drivers and utils for ac100.
+\\ Source pkgbuilds: [[https://github.com/fly-away/PKGBUILDs]] and
+ [[https://aur.archlinux.org/|AUR]]
+  [fly-ac100]
+  Server = http://flie.dyndns.org:7080/archlinux/armv7h/
+Install sortware from new repo:
+  pacman -Sy fly-ac100/xorg-server nvidia-tegra totem-gst libegl libgles libva mesa-demos-git gnome-media linux-ac100-l4t-r16.2
+Update contents of you boot partition with dd to use new kernel, as pacman output says.\\
+Also add to your **/etc/pacman.conf**:\\
+  IgnorePkg   = xorg-server
+to mask xorg-server package for updates.\\
+Ok, time to boot into new kernel
+  reboot #all gonna be ok
