Re: [arch-general] Spell Checking in Emacs
Steve Holmes writes: I found some more information concerning the ispell problem with emacs. It seems that if I do ispell-buffer, region, or word on clean data (correctly spelled), I don't get any errors in the mini buffer and in fact, ispell-word even tells me the word is correct. Fine - that works as it should. However, as soon as there is a miss-spelled word to report, then is when I get the error in the mini-buffer saying that the text is read-only. It would appear that maybe ispell can't open a buffer to display the word choices. I don't know emacs lisp well enough to try and debug this thing but it's beginning to look like nobody else here is getting the problem or doesn't use this combination with emacs. Any other ideas out there? Try flyspell-mode[1]. AFAIK, it's bundled with Emacs 23 or later.

Re: [arch-general] simple iptabels question
writes: Hello, I have a question on iptables. On the arch wiki, the tutorial on a simple stateful firewall includes the creation of the following rule. # iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --syn -m state --state NEW -j OPEN-TCP Which, to my understanding, meant only pass new TCP streams with the syn flag (the initialize connection or handshake part 1 of 3) to the user defined chain. When I checked the output of iptables, I noticed the following rule. # iptables -L INPUT --line-numbers -v 7OPEN-TCP tcp -- anywhere anywheretcp flags:FIN,SYN,RST,ACK/SYN state NEW Why is iptables also using the FIN, RST and ACK/SYN flags?

Re: [arch-general] Intro + package maintenance
aashiks writes:
Hi all,
I checked the PKGBUILD scripts that Asish sent. Both scripts work correctly.
The m17n-lib PKGBUILD script is correct and it correctly shows a dependency
for libotf. But I couldn't find the libotf package in pacman. So I ended up
using the libotf-cvs (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16709) from
AUR. This libotf packages is installed as libotf-cvs, so i had to modify the
PKGBUILD script for m17n-lib to use libotf-cvs instaed of libotf. So I think
if the m17n-lib package has to be included in extra/community repos, the
libotf package should go in also.
Sorry, I didn't noticed that it needed libotf also. Attached is the
PKGBUILD for libotf-0.9.8.
I never experienced this quick porting with any distro other than
FreeBSD and ofcourse ArchLinux. This is real fun.
The m17n-db script works correctly.
If the m17n-libs are included, then I think it would be a very good idea to
include the m17-contrib packages from AUR
(http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22049) also, since this includes
m17n support for some widely used indic languages . I was specifically
looking
for Malayalam which got recently included in m17n-contrib.
AFAICS, Malayalam language input seems to be supported in m17n-db-1.5.2
also. What specific thing are you looking for Malyalam language like
rendering of Malyalam script, input method

Hi,
Hi,
If you can share the PKGBUILD it will be helpful. My problem issue (
inputting
Malayalam ) was solved because there was a scim-tables version of the
specific
inpput scheme i was looking for. I had to get the latest scim-tables ( 0.5.8
)
for it to work. I had to create a patch due to a bug , but i now have a
working package now. I am attaching the patch and PKGBUILD for scim-tables
0.5.8 with this. please do check
Please checkout the attached PKGBUILD scripts. In case you use Emacs
(CVS) from Arch's repos and having problem rendering Indic scripts, I've
created a custom PKGBUILD for that too.
