[arch-general] libtirpc from testing breaks login
Hello, Just a heads up. It seems that the upgrade to libtirpc 0.2.2-3 from testing breaks systemd- logind/pam and logging in to the system is not possible except in rescue mode. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/32308 -- Arthur Titeica

Re: [arch-general] Gnome 3 + KDE 4 are both large disappointments.

Boy this new Gnome version is even more bloated and buggy then KDE 4 wich is quite the atchievement from the gnome team... Please stop calling KDE bloated. As a former Windows user I find both Gnome and KDE over simplistic and both lack some kind of bonding between various parts like Windows does. In that regard tough, KDE SC is doing much better than Gnome and I guess that's what the SC part means. What you may find bloated is the fact that the two major video card makers do a terrible job in supporting their over-heating-barely-2D-60euro-windows-only-cards and rely on the FOSS devs to build drivers for them. Both NVIDIA and AMD do a semi-lousy job with drivers in the Windows world and I don't expect better anytime soon. Add this to the fact that the kernel isn't exactly desktop optimized (stuff like let me move the mouse while I extract that damn 4G archive) and you'll probably get what feels like a slow system. Now what could a DE could do in this situation? I know that kwin does extensive checks in regards to video driver capabilities and maybe Gnome just isn't that far on this. That said, KDE SC with the free radeon driver in 2.6.38 is outperforming the catalyst driver with 2.6.37 in regards to desktop effects (I can't say anything about nouveau). IMHO! -- Arthur Titeica
