We could do with the patch uploading to
ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/kernel26/ so I can recompile for my netbook :)

6 boxes updated (4 i686 + 2 x86_64) - no problems. Even the whacky MSI box with
multiple dmraid arrays booted fine with grub :)

Great job tpowa!

Thanks DR.

I'm not looking for help with kde3. (I know it is dead and not 
supported and I
wouldn't bother the list with it) I'm looking for why kde4 is loading the old
kde3 kicker & background by default.

The issue here has nothing to do with kde3. There is no reason I 
shouldn't be
able to leave it installed and still use kde4. Ever since the June 2008 launch
of kde 4.0.4, it has been widely represented that you can have both kde3 and
kde4 installed side-by-side and they should not interfere with each other.
That's why K3 is /opt based with its user config in ~/.kde while K4 is /usr
based with its user config in ~/.kde4.

What I need to find is where and why in the kde4.5.5-1 load process the 
Arch
i686 packages are looking for the prior kde config and creating an erroneous
~/.kde4/share/config/kickerrc. I'm not bitching, I'm just trying to find answers
to not only solve my problem, but help everyone else out that might be bitten by
this.

There seems to be some difference in the Arch kde4 packaging between 
i686 and
x86_64. (I know it doesn't make sense...) I have a dozen Arch boxes and I have
no problems with the x86_64 kde4 where kdemod3 is still installed. But for some
reason on the i686 Dell boxes, I either get kde4 pulling in its plasma panel &
the kde3 kicker or I get lockups of kde4 at the end of ksplash (box hardlocks)

On my suse boxes with both kde3 and kde4 installed, both i686 and 
x86_64, kde4
loads without any of this strangeness. That's the only reason it points me to
the possibility of an Arch i686 k4 packaging issue. The biggest difference is
the Arch install creates the ~/.kde4/share/config/kickerrc which loads the kde3
kicker panel in kde4. That should not happen. The SuSE install of kde4 creates
no ~/.kde4/share/config/kickerrc at all (which is correct because kde4 has a
'plasma panel' and no 'kicker' at all) So why the Arch k4 i686 packaging causes
a k4 kickerrc to be created at all is a mystery to me and probably worth looking
into as it should not be occurring at all.

The Arch x86_64 kde4 packaging does not do this either. On my Arch 
x86_64
boxes, no kickerrc is created:

13:41 nirvana:~> l ~/.kde4/share/config/kicker*
ls: cannot access /home/david/.kde4/share/config/kicker*: No such file or 
directory

So something is not correct with the i686 k4 packaging that causes a 
kde4
kickerrc to be created.

[arch-general] kernel 2.6.37 breaks NFSv4 id mapping

2011-01-09 Thread Andreas Radke
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=955a857e062642cd3ebe1dc7bb38c0f85d8f8f17

kernel 2.6.37 from testing breaks ID mapping for me on the client side
(server is .32 LTS).

Is our kernel properly configured? I'm getting the
4294967294:4294967294 ownership and the wiki trick from
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=NFS#Ownership_of_mounted_shares_is_4294967294:4294967294
doesn't work anymore.

Downgrading to 2.6.36.3 from core brings it back.

Any idea?

That's really funny, I removed the redirect, tried again and it worked.
I added the redirect again and still it works...

Weird, since it never worked unless I used kill -9 before...

Could you backup the script, remove the null redirects, and then restart it?

Well the rc.d is correct actually, the problem is that with 
"killall motion" motion doesn't quit, so the rc.d script
[ ! -z "$PID" ]  && kill $PID &> /dev/null

of course doesn't work either.
So I guess it's more a problem of motion...

No luck is about recording the audio in the first place, I added this
but it never quits and I don't get any audio...
Vmware fusion should make the audio card accessible, but I'm not sure
that recording works at all...

[arch-general] Motion

2011-01-09 Thread Andrea Crotti
I'm trying to setup motion 
http://www.lavrsen.dk/foswiki/bin/view/Motion/WebHome
at the moment since I didn't find anything interesting natively on OSX I
was trying to configure inside the virtual machine.
(this is the kernel Linux test 2.6.36-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Nov 24
00:39:57 CET 2010 x86_64)

With vmware fusion I can easily assign the isight camera to the virtual
machine and in fact it works...

The problem is that for example I think the rc.d script doesn't work,
because when I do
/etc/rc.d/motion stop
it doesn't kill it, and it stays there until I do killall -9 motion.

I also wanted to understand how to record audio also and merge it to the
video generated but still no luck, if anyone did I would be grateful...
