I use gnome myself.  I am an orca user so gnome good for accessibility.  
Mate is also good.  There is a couple of things you have to odo to get 
mate to work though gnome just works rite out of the box.

Hi, what the best desktop envieronment for archlinux? Only is the question.

I like very much kde plasma but he used a lot of ram and sometimes it
is very heavy. Do you think?

There is no such thing like “the best DE”. This is a matter of
taste/desired features, dot. Most people I know running Arch use i3,
personally I use KDE Plasma. ;)

You have to find out yourself what suits your usage best. I love XFCE for its 
simplicity, lightweightness and Linux-ish style (category bases menus as 
typical for Linux, customizable panels with applets etc).

No matter what DE you use, docky is often a nice addition as a program launch 
menu.

Just a thought but when you type ip link what do you get?  If you have 
more than one network device, you will want to make sure that dhcpcd is 
enabled  with sudo systemctl enable dhcpcd@x.vservice whare x is the 
interface name you want to use.  HTH.

rfkill was already the right direction. You have to unblock the phy0

this work not. I try it with blacklisting what found in forum, I try
with block and unblock. Nothing change.

[sisibox siefke]# rfkill list
0: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
2: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
[sisibox siefke]# rfkill unblock 0

[sisibox siefke]# cat /etc/modprobe.d/hp.conf
blacklist hp_wmi

I try since 6 hours I really not understand whereis problem.

Thank you

[arch-general] ISC bind 9.11 and dyndb-ldap

2016-10-16 Thread Pallissard, Matthew via arch-general

Has anyone successfully used LDAP as a dynamic back-end for bind 9.11?

Unless I'm reading the release notes/new features pages incorrectly the 
bind-dyndb-ldap plugin has been rolled into ISC's official release and I 
shouldn't have to mess around with patching/building it from source.



Yet I get the following errors upon startup;

named[9937]: loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf'
named[9937]: /etc/named.conf:23: unknown option 'dynamic-db'
named[9937]: loading configuration: failure
named[9937]: exiting (due to fatal error)
systemd[1]: named.service: Main process exited, code=exited, 
status=1/FAILURE



Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
