Why? Isnt it ok to update only selected packages? Are there any problems that arise if i do so? I do it this way on the servers (no kernel or fcpci updates anymore) - that should be save, or can i run into other problems? # pacman -Sy # pacman -Qu than i choose what to update and do # pacman -U <pgk> are there any problems with that? Do i need to do a "pacman -Syu" to run ArchLinux? (i hope not) Thank you very much Dirk NB: -fcpci: I noted the fcpci problem later and downgradet - thank you anyway for your work!!! (happend 01.11.) -kernel: was solved with a downgrade and a later "pacman -Syu" worked (this issue is from 22.08.) -x-server: solved on the Vaio Notebook (a few lines must be edited in xorg.conf), on the TP43p there is no solution at the moment (according to the forums on archlinux.org) (both issures are from today) _______________________________________________ arch mailing list arch@archlinux.org http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
