[arch-general] Keyboard repeat in KDE

2009-04-08 Thread Leonid Grinberg
Hi,

I know I sent this before, but this is a new version of KDE and the
problem is becoming really bad. Every once in a while, keyboard repeat
will suddenly be unset. I can fix it in systemsettings, only to have
it get unset again randomly. Sometimes it will only take a few
minutes, sometimes hours. It is very very annoying. Is there anything
I can do to fix it?

I am running 4.2.2 (not kdemod, vanilla).

Thanks in advance,
Leonid

It allways worked for me as user and not only when I had scanned as root 
before. Maybe the previous driver scanned on its own from time to time?

Anyway the result is reproducable: 
start with .28 -> iwlist wlan scan as user shows all networks
start with .29 -> iwlist wlan scan as user shows no networks

I think its not new... I think it reports the last (root) scan results. If
you never scanned, its empty, but if you did, it will print the same
results.

OK, I found the problem which might be a feature. With the new kernel you need 
to be root to scan for networks. Otherwise you get the missleading answer that 
there are no scan results.

So, this is my sign-off for both arches.

[arch-general] After upgrade to KDE 4.2.2 AltGr missing in Konsole and gtk apps

2009-04-08 Thread waldek
Hi,
could somebody have a look at this topic:

http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=69393

in short, after the upgrade to KDE 4.2.2 AltGr key does not work in Konsole,  
Yakuake and gtk applications. It works in all other native KDE applications.

maybe some KDE users with Gernam keyboard here who could check if they have 
the same problem before I open a bug report at kde.org.

Cheers

Waldek




Re: [arch-general] [arch-dev-public] [signoff] kernel-2.6.29.1-3

2009-04-08 Thread Christopher Rogers
Aufs2 works fine.

Other problem:
But I think there is a upload bug with rtl8187 driver. With kernel 2.6.28.8
i can get to my full upload speed at the low end. With kernel 2.6.29 it
starts at full upload speed then goes down from there. It bugs me cause i
upload livecds and it fells like the new 2.6.29 is kill the connection with
upload.

kernel 2.6.28.8 upload speed: 500Kbyte/sec goes down to 256Kbyte/sec
kernel 2.6.29 upload speed: 256Kbyte/sec goes down to like 90Kbyte/sec or
less.

Other then this bug it can go in to core. Since i don't think its going to
get solved just yet.

Hi
Major Upstream Changes:

Archlinux Changes:
- added aufs2 to kernel package
- removed unionfs support

Signoffs:
- Please test also with binary modules.
- Please report functionality of aufs2.

Known issues:
- ipw2200 seems to have some issues
  Other devs / users should report how much impact this have?
  Pierre reported network scanning is not working correct, anyone else with
  issues?

Thanks for your help.
Hope to get kernel .29 series to core in next 2 days.
greetings
