Phoronix: Phoronix Test Suite 2.6 "Lyngen" Beta 3

The third -- and potentially final -- beta release of Phoronix Test Suite 2.6 "Lyngen" is now available. This release contains various fixes, more updates to the new PTS Results Viewer, graphing improvements, a new Phodevi sensor architecture, a Phodevi sensor that serves as a GPU fence counter, and a couple of other changes. There's also random bug-fixes...

Just clicking on your link in the error message grabbed the file for me.

Yes, same in this location now.
Nevertheless had 3 consecutive error (quoted below) earlier. Just a second download source cannot harm anyway, as there's only one by default.
