I launched spadmin to see if I could actually add a printer manually. But it doens't work, the most that can be done is trying to install a driver. So no luck... Has any one made lprng work properly with openoffice? So I just learned the arch OO package is broken for non cups users. I installed vanilla binary and had no problems. I filed 2 bugs associated with the issue, and they were closed as non bugs because arch package is not meant for non cups users. The bug closure recommends compiling OO differently for non cups users. It is very fortunate that's not the case for OO, since there's vanilla binary, :-)... -- Javier.

Re: [arch-general] X server gets shifted to Ctrl+Alt+F8
On Sat, Apr 24, 2010 at 2:27 PM, Karol Babioch ka...@babioch.de wrote: Hi, I'm not quite sure how to call this issue, maybe that's the reason, why I couldn't find anything on google nor in the bugtracker :(. I'm using the X server with GDM (Gnome), which is attached to Ctrl+Alt +F7 (btw: How do you call this?) during startup. Pretty normal. But as soon as I restart the X server (using Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, but it doesn't matter) the X server gets attached to the next free combo, which is quite obviously Ctrl+Alt+F8, whereas Ctrl+Alt+F7 shows just a blinking cursor. Interestingly this just happens once, so restarting the X server doesn't change anything, it stays attached to Ctrl+Alt+F8. I guess this could be known by some of you, I've experienced this on different machines already, but due to the fact that I don't know how to call this issue, I couldn't find any work-around. So, first of all I would like to know, whether you can reproduce this? Secondly I would like to know where the consoles are set up, so I can set up a seventh console, so the X server will get started on Ctrl+Alt +F8 in the first place. This has a different reason. My F8 key has a LCD printed on it (as it is also a function key to switch the output between the LCD and an attached monitor), so this would be a cool thing ;). But I don't know whether this would fix my main issue, or if the X server would then be shifted to Ctrl+Alt+F9. These screens are called VTs or sometimes TTYs. If you want an extra console, see /etc/inittab and look for the lines which start /sbin/agetty. If you just want to make GDM always start on the same one, that should be possible by writing on one of GDM's config files. I don't use GDM myself, but if you can find the file that controls how GDM starts X, you can add vt08 on the end of the X server command line, and it will know to start on tty8 (Ctrl+Alt+F8).

I have given it a moment's thought and came to the following conclusions: 1. That depends entirely on the capabilities of FlySpray. I'm not privileged enough to do much more than create tickets on Arch's FlySpray, and that's the only FlySpray instance I've ever used. If you are correct when you say that FlySpray support assigning a single ticket to more than one person (something that isn't supported by many other issue trackers, I believe, and none that I've ever used), then yes, it is a possible way. 2. It also depends on how tracking should be done. If you want to measure progress across the different affected packages then it seems more logical to raise one ticket per package. Assign it to everyone that maintains a haskell-* package. That is up to one of the administrators to do.
