Didn't helped.

@Martti Kühne

get the why!

Thanks for the help.

  Rebooted server a second time (prev clients were rebooted first) - 
and now all clients are happy.


  Odd no?

Indeed, it was the theme... Simple, but it tricked me.
Thanks for the tip.

  One more piece of info:

If on the client - I create a new symbolic link - it is fine on 
both client and server.


 On Client:

# ln -s testing.db.tar.gz JUNK
# ls -l JUNK
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jun 28 20:24 JUNK -> testing.db.tar.gz

Same back on the NFS server ...

# ls -l JUNK testing.db
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jun 28 20:24 JUNK -> testing.db.tar.gz
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Jun 28 14:12 testing.db -> testing.db.tar.gz

 Very weird ...

  More problems - could really use some help on this one.


  Rebooted the server today after full update (testing) - now ALL nfs 
clients get Input/Output error on any symbolic link - regular files are 
fine.


  Server/client both:

nfs-utils 1.3.0-2
rpcbind 0.2.1-5


On any client (this is an internal mirror of arch repo - so testing.db 
is a symbolic link to test.db.tar,gz)


# ls -l testing.db testing.db.tar.gz
ls: cannot read symbolic link testing.db: Input/output error

Re: [arch-general] Docked Lenovo T540p Not Recognizing Dual Monitors

I unfortunately have a Lenovo T540p laptop and an UltraDock docking

Plugged into the docking station is a Lenovo monitor via DVI and an 
Ilyama

monitor via VGA.

The monitors are not recognised by xrandr as being separate monitors, 
and

the output mirrors each other.

The output of xrandr -q:

$ xrandr -q

axis)

   640x480   59.94
HDMI2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)



eDP1 is my laptop monitor and DP2 is the Lenovo monitor.  Notice the
maximum screen size at the top of the output.  I notice that I have 
more

screen than I can use - how to set that to actual size as well?

But the burning question is how can I get my VGA monitor to be 
recognised?


There is a good chance the cocking station uses MST to provide all the 
monitor outputs. ATM Linux does not support this; good new is that it's 
being worked on: http://airlied.livejournal.com/79388.html

Re: [arch-general] Docked Lenovo T540p Not Recognizing Dual Monitors

[Temlin Olivér]

It looks like the VGA display is not even recignised as existing. Try it
with only the VGA plugged in, and see whether it gets recognized as such.
The Lenovo page [1] writes about one model that only some video outputs are
separate (some are exclusive). If it is so, then try chatting up tech
support (mentioned page pops up such option after some time) and ask which
ones are separate.
