I don't care that much about top and bottom posting, but most people on
mailing lists for good reasons do.
The style becomes an issue, if some people post on top and others post
at the bottom. We already are using mail clients with different styles
for the quotation and line break.
... is what I've written off-list.
Now to the list, because there are exceptions.
Kyle, when I know that I write to somebody using braille I don't format
my email in a way, that can't be displayed in braille, e.g.
I wrte a text with a typo.
wrote
If I know somebody has an issue with his computer and she/he only can
use her/his wristwatch, I would bear this in mind too, when replying.
IMO you're mistaken. People usually don't post a complete message, most
of the times we [snip] a lot of text, especially signatures and mailing
list legends.
When I write a personal letter I prefer not to quote, but to write in a
way, that quotation isn't needed. For a reply on a mailing list it's
less time consuming to quote by cuttings and reply below it. In forums
this seldom is useful, there people most of the times quote because of
self-importance, to ensure the poster they reply to, doesn't edit the
original post, one of many good reason to prefer mailing lists instead.
I hope those posting discussions will stop one day and we only will
point out to stop it, without discussing it again, if top posting really
becomes annoying.
I like to encourage people not to use their Android, iThingy, MS web
thingy or wristwatch when writing to Linux home computer mailing lists,
as long as those things cause issues and the topic shouldn't be urgent.
If a MUA force you to CC, the way you need to post etc., I wonder why
people use such bad software. Seems to be the first step before the MUAs
include chatbods that force the contend of the emails body.

If I'm not mistaken support for a separate /usr was enabled around January in mkinitcpio Forgive me if this has been asked countless times and I'm guessing it's just a matter of someone picking up the code. Is there a reason other than coding it why there isn't a run sdiff on .pacnew pacman option flag which could then be followed automatically with mkinitcpio?

[arch-general] time to drop openjdk6 ?
Oracle has declared JRE/JDK7 the preferred one over JRE/JDK6. So it should be now stable enough to replace Java6 for everyone also in the OpenJDK community releases. I'm asking if there's somebody still in the need to use openjdk6 for certain apps that fail to run with openjdk7? If so please report it upstream. I know there's are still some commercial java apps that will only run on the Oracle JRE6 or JRE7 but I ask only if somebody prefers openjdk6 in our repos over java7-openjdk. I'd like to drop openjdk6 when the next security update will be released if possible. -Andy signature.asc Description: PGP signature

When ever possible I'm using Linux as my DAW, most times when the DAW is borked, the cause isn't something related to ALSA versions. For example I once upgraded a Debian using GNOME 2 without pulseaudio, it didn't upgrade to a newer version of GNOME 2, but to GNOME 3 and forced to install pulseaudio. Pro-audio cards don't work when PA is activated. This is just a relatively unalarming example, since it's possible to get rid of PA, but there are very grotesque possibilities for what could happen. Dunno what's the different between 1.0.25-1 and 1.0.25-2, but it seems to be possible, that something else is the show-stopper, but ALSA firmware. - Ralf

I think we should move forward to 7. Oracle already announced that
they are moving so the the application must follow. You can always
keep a JRE 6 and JDK 6 locally as optional somewhere else (/opt) or
even at your home folder for your development and for applications and
make alias for them or even load them in your local .profile.

Hello,
Unfortunately tomcat7 won't compile with OpenJDK7. I will have a look
at this (after my holidays next week). This one should be the only of
mine to still require java-environment=6.

Hi,
Many internet banking applications here in Brazil need JDK6.
I'll check if this is still valid for my bank (that's a very popular
one), but others may cease to work.

Hum ...
It seems the RD people at my bank have updated the internet banking
application and now it works with SDK7.
Anyway I don't know about other applications like this, here in Brazil
and elsewhere...

Re: [arch-general] Shutdown and reboot not working after last weekend update
Oki I reverted to the old kernel and I'm back to the old scenario how can I properly downgrade a kernel? Regards and thx for the help so far guys.

Simply click the disk health icon on the desktop. Folks I've messed things even more I did a kernel downgrade, downloaded kernel 3.3.7 from arch time machine and did pacman -U kernel26-2.6.39.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz System rebuilt modules and so on. After reboot it seems to report my /boot is not a valid partition type with ext2fs. Still grub which is installed there works and I can boot my windows. My plan now is download a live cd do a chroot to my old arch and try to update the kernel for the old state is it manageable?

(Assuming, you did a pacman -U old-kernel)

(Assuming, you did a pacman -U old-kernel) I did it for the kenel which hangs, the one before it does not boot as described on the previous posts. So somehow I need to find the last working configuration. Also is shutdown -F a dangerous practice? Cause this works for me.
