Take squid for example, in squid.conf, set upstream server using cache_peer and authentication parameters (please refer to squid manual because I don't know how to do it :-P ), and set a port that handles intercepted traffic (or it won't work!): http_port intercept and insert the following iptables rule: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port
[arch-general] Weird problem of ALPS v6 touchpad
Hi all, I'm using Archlinux on a Dell Inspiron 7420 laptop, which has an ALPS touchpad that doesn't have driver in kernel. Currently aur/psmouse-alps-driver provides support for it. But recently some weird problem happened. After I switch off touchpad using `synclient TouchpadOff=1`, it should be completely turned off. But when I wipe it with palm, the mouse pointer randomly moves and sometimes even clicks! In `xinput list` there is a strange "PS/2 mouse" device: ⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)] ⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ RAPOO RAPOO 5G Wireless Device id=12 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ AlpsPS/2 ALPS GlidePoint id=17 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ PS/2 Mouse id=15 [slave pointer (2)] [..cut..] (The RAPOO is my USB mouse and it has nothing to do with the PS/2 device) I had to use xinput to disable the PS/2 device to stop the problem. Is there any other input device I don't know inside my laptop? Or, is it a bug?

[arch-general] Cannot get GNOME Keyring to work well with lightdm-razor-greeter and razor-qt
Hi everyone, I recently switched to razor-qt desktop and lightdm (for a faster startup), but I can't get gnome-keyring-daemon to run. I've tried https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GNOME_Keyring#Use_Without_GNOME , but ~/.xinitrc doesn't seem to be executed at all. Plus, I don't want to add anything into ~/.bashrc, because I think $SSH_AUTH_SOCK and some relevant variables should just be set in the session. Is there any better idea? Thanks, Hexchain
