[arch-general] Recent upgrade of vimgvim generates assertion errors in console
Hi guys, Just paste my post from forum. Have you guys encountered this issue after recent upgrades of vim gvim: ** (gvim:17054): CRITICAL **: gtk_form_set_static_gravity: assertion `static_gravity_supported' failed ** (gvim:17054): CRITICAL **: gtk_form_set_static_gravity: assertion `static_gravity_supported' failed ** (gvim:17054): CRITICAL **: gtk_form_set_static_gravity: assertion `static_gravity_supported' failed ** (gvim:17054): CRITICAL **: gtk_form_set_static_gravity: assertion `static_gravity_supported' failed ** (gvim:17054): CRITICAL **: gtk_form_set_static_gravity: assertion `static_gravity_supported' failed This happens when running gvim in the console. It works all fine except the warnings. Downgrading to version 7.2.266 can avoid this. Best Regards -- LI Ye

[arch-general] Was the kernel suspend to disk feature removed on 2.6.32.8-1
Hi all, Previously I was having the following settings: /etc/default/grub -- GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT='resume=/dev/sda5' grub.cfg --- linux /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda7 ro resume=/dev/sda5 I have installed: acpitool 0.5.1-1 kernel26 2.6.32.8-1 And fro quiet a long time I've been using the kernel suspend feature through acpitool, so in order to suspend I've always done: acpitool -S As of now, it seems storing the state into the swap area is working. Problem is that when booting, the kernel is not even trying to see if there's state stored in the swap, since I don't see any message about it, and all I'm getting is plain boot. So I suspect the kernel is not compiled with built in support for suspend to disk. Is this true? Thanks, -- Javier.

This has to be added manually now with the non-klibc mkinitcpio.

This has to be added manually now with the non-klibc mkinitcpio. Actually, all documentation I knew of always said it was necessary to add it. The old and much-hated kinit always applied some kind of magic we had no control of, including resuming although not told to do so. So, dumping kinit may have removed undocumented features - mainly because I didn't even know those features existed. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
[arch-general] Abort forced filesystem check on boot
Hi, I have written a small patch for rc.sysinit which gives the user the ability to abort a forced filesystem check with pressing the escape-key. I haven't found another feature-request in the bugtracker for this so I opened one: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/18400 . What do you think about it? signature.asc Description: PGP signature

[arch-general] Postfix Package Upgrade
I was curious how a user like myself can find out when the 'Postfix' package from Arch Linux will be upgraded from 2.6.5 to 2.7.0? Is there a way I can see the release schedule or a round about guess-tamite as to when it will be released?

I guess that will happen when postfix dev release the final stable version, right now it seems to be just a stable _release candidate_.

[arch-general] [patch] AIF, discover repos on iso.
Hi List, The attached patch fixes a TODO in lib-pacman of aif. Instead of hardcoding that `core' is always available locally and falling back to net for others, it now checks /src/ for repos. It assumes repos are stored at /src/$repo/pkg/. All these repos are added as cache dirs. While preparing pacman, a number of repo names are provided to be prepared. All those repos which were requested are added as actual repo. If this repo is available locally, the url points to disk. Otherwise it falls back to the mirrorlist. Please let me know what you think. Greetings/Groetjes Mark Pustjens -- Currently there's five machines permanently networked here. They *all* contain the serious core stuff. A couple of the machines are pensioned off 486s, with little other value now. Plus there's two Jaz drives in the building and the portable also carries a fair amount of stuff. Plus every Friday a man comes around and carves all the new stuff onto stone slabs and buries them in the garden... I think I'm okay.

[arch-general] Planet Arch Linux atom feed.
Guys, if any of you are subscribed to planet arch, then you must have noticed a problem with some of the feeds. The problem is, the summary of the feed displays fine, but when i open the feed, it shows the xml of the feed instead of showing the website. http://planet.archlinux.org/atom.xml (this is shown). This happens with only a few of the feeds. Recently happened with these feeds: Arch Haskell News: February 2010, Archiso-live 20100217 Release. I am using firefox with newsfox. Anyone else notice this? Godane's Development Blog
