OK. I read the wiki page once more and found out my mistake. Since my kernel
has already been compiled can I create the package without compiling it again?

[arch-general] problem installing custom kernel
Hi,
I tried compiling and installing the linux kernel from ABS. I modified the
PKGBUILD file as mentioned in the wiki. The kernel compiles fine and the pkg
gets built with the name linux-custom as specified in the PKGBUILD. But when I
try to install it I get the following error:

[arch-general] Email via mutt+offlineimap+msmtp
Hi, I am trying to send and receive emaisl using mutt. I am using offlineimap to download and store all my emails from two of my gmail accounts. I have followed the following two guides [1] [2] to setup my configuration. My problem is that when I try to compose an email, mutt automatically chooses my second email account to send mails from whereas I want my first account to be the one from which mails are sent by default. In my config files I have named my first email account for both imap and smtp as well as for my local mail dir "mkakati" and my second one "papul". So mutt chooses papul account to send mails from everytime i compose an email. Basically what I want is that I want the mkakati account to be the one from which emails are sent. Also I would like to be able to choose from which email account I wantr to send mails. I have folder-hooks setup so that it changes to from field according to the folder (i.e account) I am in. But that doesn't seem to be working properly. have provided links to my offlineimaprc, muttrc, msmtprc and some other files below. offlineimaprc http://codepad.org/6Sptj5DE msmtp.rc http://codepad.org/wFuRZOKM muttrc http://codepad.org/Rn7plSRp mkakati.muttrc http://codepad.org/KvQn3Gri papul.muttrc http://codepad.org/ppYti2KS [1] http://pbrisbin.com/posts/two_accounts_in_mutt [2] http://pbrisbin.com/posts/mutt_gmail_offlineimap

Re: [arch-general] Mounting drives via nautilus stopped working after update.
Well what I said is true. When I first started using arch I didn't mind when stuff broke. But now after setting up the OS according to my tastes I want it to stay as it is. So I want it to be stable. But I also don't want to sacrifice the freedom if using arch. And I made this my primary work OS and it really is hurting productivity as I tend to work on a lot of removal drives.

[arch-general] Mounting drives via nautilus stopped working after update.
Hi, After a recent update, I am unable to mount any drives by clicking their names in nautilus side panel like I used to do before. I use awesome wm and start it via slim which itself is started via the inittab method. I have dbus installed and it starts up automatically at boot. Also in my .xinitrc file I have ck-launch-session and dbus-launch before awesome. Everything used to work fine like this before the update. Now when I try to mount a drive I get the error not authorized. I am also in the group storage. I really like arch Linux but these stuff breaking on updates is what pisses me off. Please help me as this is affecting my productivity on my machine. Thanks.

So I uninstalled gdm and pulseaudio and am now using xdm with archlinux

Forget about mpd. Why doesn't audio play on vlc and in browsers? I regularly
visit sites like grooveshark,com. Also I do have my username in audio group.
Everything was fine until I ran pacman -Syu. :(

Where do I put the '#' in the /etc/rc.d/mpd script? In the beginning or in a

[arch-general] no sound coming from speakers after update
Hi, I ran pacman -Syu just now after a gap of almost 3 weeks. After the update I restarted my system and now I can't play audio. Even mpd doesn't start up. alsamixer shows Card: PulseAudio and Chip:PulseAudio. Please help me as I can't do work on my computer with listening to music. :( I have pulseaudio installed just because gdm needs it. Other than that I use alsa.

[arch-general] ConvertXToDVD alternative for Linux.
Hi, One of the very few reasons that I still Dual boot windows is that I don't know how to convert media files from one format to another in Linux. On windows I use 2 very easy to use softwares namely FormatFactory and ConvertXToDVD for my needs. Can you guys tell me about any Linux alternative to that? I tried installing ConvertXtoDVD using wine. The main program installs fine but the DVD menu templates, though installed, aren't detected by the program and hence I cant use the DVD menus. Thanks.

AFAIK the the document to be printed is converted to postscript (ps) files and sent to the printer. Canon printer can't print directly from ps files so they need to convert to a suitable format. I think thats what the pstocapt file does. And thats the only thing messing up. CUPS sends everything right but the ps files don't get converted. I tried printing from a Linux Mint live DVD too using official drivers but it just won't print. I should have bought a HP laser. :(

Re: [arch-general] Archlinux is for everyone
Same case here in India. We buy, suppose a lenovo laptop(standard config - core i3, 15" LCD, 2GB RAM, 160 GB HDD), for 35,000 INR. However the price of the lowest apple laptop is about 65,000 INR (with student discounts). So the number of Apple laptops used is very low. Also I have never touched an android,ios or blackbery device till date. Its because they are so costly that none of my close relatives and friends can afford these(forget about me. I am very poor. :P). Most OEMS now provide genuine windows 7 with their machines, which I believe is a pretty good OS. So the number of pirated windows users who bought a new laptop since about november last year are very low. But almost all of my friends have Linux Mint installed. And I am trying hard to get it installed on as many computers as possible. Some of my friends have even started using ArchLinux. Thanks.

Yes I know how build specific packages in PKGBUILD. I want to know that
do i have to compile and install the kernel header and kernel docs
package or should I install only the kernel package?

Why is it named kernel26? Also i was checking out the PKGBUILD. Do i
have to compile and install the kernel headers and kernel docs? Also the
pkgname is kernel26-mainline. But the the line 69 is
package_kernel26() { but shouldn't it be renamed
package_kernel26-mainline() { ?
I don't want to mess up my existing kernel by installing it. I want to
install it as package named kernel26-mainline.
Also is there anyway to check what files a package will add or remove
from my system when I install it without actually installing it?
Thanks

[arch-general] Unable to change file and folder icon theme to Human
Hi, I am using archlinux with gnome 3. I am trying hard to change my icon theme to human but it just doesnt change. ~/.gtkrc-2.0 http://pastie.org/1983860 and ~/.gtkrc.mine http://pastie.org/1983863. I tried lxappearance too. After I click on apply and close it gnome kinda restarts and when i open nautilus it shows no change. I had tango icon theme so i deleted that dir from /usr/share/icons. Now it has switched to the default gnome icon theme. How do i change it to Human icon theme? also when i run pcmanfm i get the following output in terminal ** (pcmanfm:3532): DEBUG: unable to load icon . GThemedIcon application-x-bittorrent gnome-mime-application-x-bittorrent application-x-generic ** (pcmanfm:3532): DEBUG: unable to load icon .

[arch-general] Sharing data between Windows 7 and Archlinux
Hi all, Got hold of a cheap laptop. I want to use it as my download rig. It will be on most of the time downloading torrents. The laptop actually came with Windows XP installed. I setup the laptop ip as 192.168.1.5 and my desktop (running Windows 7) ip as 192.168.1.4. After doing that I connected both of them using a lan wire. I then enable sharing on both of them and I could transfer files directly from one computer to the other at speeds of upto 75MBps. I want to know how to do the same with archlinux or Windows 7 running on my desktop and archlinux running on the desktop. Please tell me how to do that. I want to be able to tranfer downloaded content directly from the laptop to the desktop using a lan cable. Thanks.

Suitable java version found [java = 1.6.0_20] Configuring environment... Java exec found in PATH. Verifying... Browser check failed with: Cannot load 32-bit SWT libraries on 64-bit JVM Auto-scanning for GRE/XULRunner. You can skip this by appending the GRE path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH and setting MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME. checking /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9.2 for GRE Can not use GRE from /usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9.2 because it's missing libxpcom.so. checking /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2 for GRE GRE found at /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2. Browser check failed with: Could not initialize class org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display Can't create browser. Will try to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and hope Vuze has better luck. setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to: /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2 setting MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to: /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2 Loading Azureus: java -Xmx128m -cp "./Azureus2.jar:./swt.jar" -Djava.library.path="/usr/share/vuze" -Dazureus.install.path="/usr/share/vuze" -Dazureus.script="/usr/bin/vuze" -Dazureus.script.version=2 org.gudy.azureus2.ui.swt.Main file:/usr/share/vuze/Azureus2.jar ; file:/usr/share/vuze/swt.jar ; file:/usr/share/vuze/ changeLocale: *Default Language* != English (United States).
