David,


No changes are necessary in any of the /etc/grub.d files.


the LTS kernel will be found automatically when running grub-mkconfig.


Cheers, Patrick


Thanks Patrick! I think I will try installing an LTS kernel, but I heard a new 
LTS kernel is being released,  4.1. Do you have any idea how long it will take 
to show up in the repository? Cheers

Found through exactly the same steps as described earlier.

Do you want to modify the PKGBUILD and rebuild libreoffice yourself?
Because, you know, there's also libreoffice-still 4.4.5-2 in the repos.

 Flow, you can get it through SVN or the Git mirror. Info should be in the 
 wiki.

Re: [arch-general] PHP - libphp5.so, OR php-fpm and mod_proxy_fcgi, OR php5 with apache2-mpm-worker and mod_fcgid

What is the proper-suggested PHP configuration? Is libphp5.so
 still on its way out? (there is no indication this is still the
 case). I have a relatively lightly used web-server, so the use of
 mod_mpm_prefork and loss of threading is not an issue with my setup.

libphp5.so doesn't work out of the box anymore. It is effectively
deprecated, and the fact that it's still on the wiki page is simply due
to the wiki not being constantly updated.

Why would I choose either php-fpm and mod_proxy_fcgi, or php5 with 
 apache2-mpm-worker and mod_fcgid as an alternative to libphp5.so for
 my PHP config on Arch?

I use php-fpm and mod_proxy_fcgi as the simplest just works setup. See
the Apache wiki page and use the SetHandler version of the setup.

Re: [arch-general] Having trouble understanding UEFI booting

I don't think I have the knowledge to solve your problem, but what is the
problem you are having?  So far you have just described your partition
scheme and that you are stuck somewhere.

Which wiki page are you referring to?

 I'm dual booting arch and windows 8.1, previously I had ubuntu 14.04 but
 when I upgraded to 15.04 it got too messed up so I decided to bite the
 bullet and go with arch.

 when installing I have only used partitions 9, 10  11. partitions 1 - 8
 were on the disc from the windows pre-install and shrunk to make way for
 linux.

 A recent operation is affecting my concentration and comprehension so be
 kind please.

Did you update your .SRCINFO files when you updated the PKGBUILD?

Sorry, was up til 3am try to work it out.

wiki pages:

Installation guide and beginners guide and chasing down the links for 
bootloaders  grub  ...

the final symptom is a failure by grub-install to write x86_64.efi or very 
similar name.

from what I've looked at this morning I suspect it may relate to not having 
mounted the EFI system partition but I've confused myself so much I'm not sure 
and thought it better to reach out rather than blunder about and do more damage.
