[arch-general] synergy-plus
I suppose this could be filed as a bug... but since extra/synergy has long been unmaintained upstream. I recently found a fork http://code.google.com/p/synergy-plus/ for which there is already a pkgbuild on AUR. perhaps we should consider relegating the original synergy to AUR and moving synergy-plus into extra (or community) -- Caleb Cushing http://xenoterracide.blogspot.com

Re: [arch-general] VirtualBox kernel modules do not match version ???
compiling doesn't help that, it's when you install the application that it compiles and installs the modules. I always reinstall when a new kernel comes out.

Currently (and for the past 2 months or so), all our Debian Squeeze boxes suffer from not being able to shutdown/restart/logout from the gnome menu. Our only option is to do a 'switch user' and then shutdown/restart from gdm. Probably something with polkit/gnome-keyring-daemon, but I cannot find any errors in the logs which makes this hard to debug. Our problems are probably unrelated, but I feel your pain :) Vincent -- Advocatenkantoor Suy, Van Baeveghem & Van Houtte Brusselsestraat 108 9200 Dendermonde T +32.52.52.06.05 F +32.52.52.06.46 W http://www.synergylaw.be
