Re: [arch-general] Xinitrc wiki still references copying /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ?

2016-03-19 Thread Zachary Kline 
Hi,

I know this. :) The Xorg package doesn’t contain xinitrc. That’s in the xInit 
package.

So pacman -S xinit, and it will be there.
Best,
Zack.

That's correct.  I can confirm that if I go to SeaMonkey's Edit >

created.  This userapp .desktop file is then inserted into
~/.config/mimeapps.list.

[arch-general] Xinitrc wiki still references copying /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ?

2016-03-19 Thread David C. Rankin 
All,

  I'm working to setup fluxbox on a virtual arch install inside ESXI which I
will access via rdesktop (or something similar). In configuring flux to start at
boot I was following the wiki:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xinitrc

  The point about copying the default xinitrc to ~/.xinitrc references a file
that no longer exists in the current Xorg install. e.g.:

cp /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.xinitrc

  What is the current way to set up your ~/.xinitrc (or is that even needed
anymore?)

The easiest way would be to ditch EFI and go back to legacy BIOS. There
should be an option for this in your BIOS, but you may need to Google
around to find the right options to set. Once you do that, you should be
able to boot and install from the normal Arch ISO without modification.

Isn't the culprit, but https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xdg-menu

I don't use, but have some DEs installed, but e.g. Xfce seemingly

So perhaps launching palemoon does it.

[arch-general] startx on arch vm running on ESXI (when accessed via ssh - do I need a DM?)

2016-03-19 Thread David C. Rankin 
All,

  When I ended up with a hand-me-down supermicro server from a local ISP, I
decided to try virtualizing all my hosts. The company I got this from
recommended vmware ESXI as the hypervisor. It was a pleasant surprise to find
that ESXI is a basic Linux system. (albeit a very limited and quirky setup).

  I've installed Arch as the first vm, assigning 8-cores and 16G of RAM. It is
up and running fine. (it is installed on a raid1 array volume from a LSI
controller which exists as a single datastore in esxi -- if that makes any
difference)

  I am trying to setup fluxbox on arch so I can access the vm via rdesktop (or
something similar) via a GUI on a as needed basis. I would rather not have a
display manager running all the time, so I'm attempting to use the startx route.

  I've used the following to try and get this going:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fluxbox
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xinitrc
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xorg
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Display_manager

  The configuration is good, but I'm stuck attempting to start X. X is refusing
to start due to the fact I'm accessing Arch by ssh. When I try to start x, I
receive the following error telling me that "Only console users are allowed":

$ startx

/usr/lib/xorg-server/Xorg.wrap: Only console users are allowed to run the X 
server

xinit: giving up
xinit: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused
xinit: server error
Couldn't get a file descriptor referring to the console

  I understand that it wants X only to be started from the actual physical
console, but when I access the vm over ssh, I don't have one. (I am starting the
vm, ssh'ed into esxi with 'vim-cmd vmsvc/power.on 1', so there is no console
anywhere else)

  What would be the best solution? Have arch boot to the graphical target
loading a display manager? ... or is there some way I can simply startx as
needed so I don't leave the dm running all the time on the vm? Thanks for any
help you can provide.

edit the menu using a menu editor. I don't have such entries for e.g.

I have successfully setup strongswan VPN server following instructions

I have another laptop, running Arch, that I want to connect to the VPN

Ever since the atomic patches landed in 4.3, i915 seems to have

If you only want to run individual applications, you can use the -X
switch of ssh and then simply execute the respective applications as you
would normally. Note that this requires the ssh-session being opened in
a local graphical terminal.

If you however want to have a full graphical environment, you will have
to use VNC or something comparable, or so I think.

[arch-general] Mysterious userapp .desktop files

2016-03-19 Thread Kyle Terrien 
So, somehow my default web browser got changed from SeaMonkey back to
Firefox.  (Bleh!)

I ended up cleaning up after xdg-open in the process of correcting my
default web browser.

In ~/.local/share/applications/ (where user-customized .desktop files
go), there were several files in the format
userapp--.desktop.

userapp-Firefox-FIK3WX.desktop
userapp-Pale Moon-1HNY8X.desktop
userapp-SeaMonkey-YV09AY.desktop
userapp-Thunderbird-PIZCZW.desktop

(Wow!  I have gone through a lot of web browsers lately.)

I remember creating a few .desktop files in this directory, but I don't
remember creating any userapp-* files.  The contents of
userapp-Firefox-FIK3WX.desktop were:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Type=Application
NoDisplay=true
Exec=/usr/lib/firefox/firefox %u
Name=Firefox
Comment=Custom definition for Firefox

This is weird.  There is only an English comment (the default has many
languages), and this one has set NoDisplay.

I deleted all my custom .desktop files.  I have no use for them anymore.

And back to the problem of default web browsers.  These userapp .desktop
files got into mimeapps.list (now located in ~/.config/).  I suppose the
short hash for SeaMonkey changed, causing mimeapps.list to fallback to
the next web browser listed in mimeapps.list.  I had to weed all the
userapp garbage out and replace them with the system-wide .desktop file
names.

What daemon creates these mysterious userapp .desktop files?  I don't
want this daemon creating this junk on my system.
