[arch-general] Munin and MySQL
Hi all, anyone proficient at Munin? The talk of one of our guest speakers at the local SFD that took place yesterday was about monitoring everything with Munin, a software I didn't knew but which I liked at first sight. Once at home the very first thing I did after take the laptop out of my backpack was install Munin, of course, and alongside this I found some warning and error messages that aren't very informative so before go and dive on the net trying to gather information about them I decided to first try luck in the list. Whenever I run: # munin-node-configure --shell | sh I got this: # The following plugins caused errors: # mysql_: # Non-zero exit during autoconf (2) # ntp_states: # Non-zero exit during autoconf (2) # proc: # In family 'auto' but doesn't have 'autoconf' capability Now the munin-node-configure --suggest command shows: | no | no for all the three plugins. Following the wiki suggestion: # munin-run {plugin} I got a: # Unknown service '{plugin}' for all them three. I would appreciate any light here since seems there isn't any Munin error log file to check and also Munin does not log to standard /var/log/errors.log file. Greetz, Martin
Re: [arch-general] almost got latest talkingarch installed
One thing I forgot to write up. After booting into new system, hitting keys on keypad does not crash the system and those keys perform the expected speakup functions so the system is definitely using linux-lts and not the flake default kernel. --- jude Adobe fiend for failing to Flash
Re: [arch-general] almost got talking arch installed
I put the fixes in on /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg and was successful in First running initcpio -p linux-lts had no problems running and I pointed everything to linux-lts in /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg. Then I rebooted the system. I let the computer alone for 8 hours then returned and hit enter to get archlinux talking. I managed to login as root and was told the file system was read only. I checked /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda3 with ls -al and in both cases got the attribute string back of brw-rw. I replaced the arch disk in the drive sled with a working install of debian and after boot up checked /dev/sda1 with ls -al and got the attribute string back of brw-rw---T. So the latest talking archlinux over here using syslinux turns out to be installable and unusable at least for the moment. Is this salvageable, I don't know this is the first time anything like that happened in my experience with Linux. This time, I can't produce any dmesg output given the state of the disk and probably the boot process either. --- jude Adobe fiend for failing to Flash

[arch-general] Proprietary nvidia driver for different kernels
Hi :) until now I switch between the FLOSS nv driver and the proprietary nvidia driver at startup, depending to the kernel I boot. IOW I use the nv driver with kernel-rt and the proprietary with 3.5.3-1-ARCH. If I try to boot the kernel-rt, I get a black screen. [spinymouse@archlinux ~]$ pacman -Qi nvidia | grep Ver Version: 304.43-1 [spinymouse@archlinux ~]$ pacman -Qi nvidia-rt | grep Ver Version: 304.43-1 [spinymouse@archlinux ~]$ pacman -Qi nvidia-utils | grep Ver Version: 304.43-1 [spinymouse@archlinux ~]$ pacman -Qi xf86-video-nv | grep Ver Version: 2.1.20-1 [spinymouse@archlinux ~]$ grep DAEMONS /etc/rc.conf # DAEMONS DAEMONS=(!69switch_xorg.conf hwclock syslog-ng !network !netfs crond acpid dbus networkmanager rtirq) Any ideas?

The connection did not stay up; as soon as a client connected (like mplayer) the connection stopped. This looked something like a dbus event, but the jackd binary in jack2, although coupled with jackdbus, should have no business with dbus. It did not occur to me that it might be a kernel issue. Installing standard jack solved the problem, but I had this in my TODO (since it means jack2 is basically broken, but we have not received any reports so far). It would help if you could come on to IRC #jack or #archaudio so we could troubleshoot this. -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1

PS: Unfortunately I can't remember when it gets broken. The Rt still is blinking when I start jackd by QJackCtl and if I play a WAV by Audacity via Jack everything seems to be ok.

[arch-general] Issue with Jack2, ALSA or current kernels
Hi :) I noticed that audio with Jack is broken for [spinymouse@archlinux ~]$ uname -a Linux archlinux 3.5.3-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Aug 26 09:14:51 CEST 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux and 3.4.4-rt14-1-rt [1]. Does anybody experience the same? Unfortunately I also lost my rtirq settings, that anyway might not work with the new kernels. And the error seems not be related to rtirq, but perhaps to a broken Jack, ALSA or Kernel.

Additionally I have now edited the wiki at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/USB_Installation_Media#UNetbootin to include a warning about unetbootin for the dual architecture install isos. If anyone feels that "any" reference to unetbootin in the wiki should be removed then please go ahead and change the wiki. -- mike c

Hi all, I just discovered this morning I can't talk on #archlinux anymore. My user (gabx666) is banned!! Never flamed or be rude, never flood, slow activity. Any idea why? How can I solve this? Thank you
