I'm glad to hear that's how the smart guys on Arch feel about it.

It has been quite some time since I had a problem with it. It's quite
possible that the faded memory was from a time before I tried Arch.

It's certain that a similar issue of some pop-up wanting to help me deal
with a CD or DVD I'd just inserted, annoyed me far more often than Thane ever
did with am inserted sub stick... But that, likewise, hasn't happened in a long
time.

Guess I was just being nervous about nothing...

Re: [arch-general] [signoff] linux-3.3.1-1

2012-04-06 Thread solsTiCe d'Hiver
hello,

well this is a bit off-topic.

But linux-ck switched already to 3.3 kernel and I just discovered that
ndiswrapper does not compile.

It seems there is a patch floating around to allow ndiswrapper to
compile with a 3.3 kernel

But I see no ndiswrapper package in [community-testing] yet ?

Could the ndiswrapper package be included in [extra] instead of
[community] ?


What a bad idea to remove my ethernet cable and to have now to rely on a
PCI wifi card only supported via ndiswrapper. :-(

I have a similar reservation. On two eeepc 901, suspend works just
fine. Alas, only only on one of them does resume work with a 3.3
kernel. I'm not convinced that 3.3 is ready.

  First off thank you arch devs. I am newish to arch (was with
fedora/redhat since about RH 3).

  I am very happy with the arch - huge thank you.

  On 3.3.1, obviously I can't sign off - but here's some fedeback.

  I can attest that the OOPS i was seeing with 3.3 (crash on shutdown or
sleep - bluetooth) has not yet happened with 3.3.1.

  I have seen no other problems (encrypted swap / home, 1 laptop w
iwlwifi, 3 desktops). It has been very stable - no issues and no
worrisome logs on any of the machines I am testing on.

  Thanks!

[arch-general] Eclipse-cdt updates

2012-04-06 Thread Alexandre Ferrando
In the past few days I've noticed something kind of strange with
eclipse-cdt on the packages page [ 0 ]. Also this can be seen if you
follow the rss feed for updates.

A few times every day since april 1st or so the eclipse-cdt package
gets updated or downgraded from 8.0.1-2 to 8.0.2-1 and vice-versa.

The last commit on the SVN page shows the PKGBUILD for 8.0.2-1 [ 1 ]

I tend to update once a day, but in any of those updates I've got
8.0.2-1, as if that version didn't reach the mirrors.

Has anyone else noticed something like this or knows what is happening there?

Just asking,
Alex.

I agree. If a Desktop application wants to automount devices, it's fine. Of
course, it would be nice if the user keeps control over this.

Besides the desktop environment automounting should *not* occur unless
configured by the sysadmin.

That way, everybody's happy and the system stays predictable  IMHO.
