[arch-general] recent upgrade has messed up x

Until last week, my X setup worked fine. No special configuration needed. I have a 3rd generation Core i7 notebook with a dual monitor setup. After a recent update, everything works differently, and not for the better. Before, with a VGA monitor plugged in (with or without a second HDMI monitor)

I should have added more details. I am using OpenBox on an X86_64 install. Two different systems (desktop and notebook) but otherwise largely similar setups. Scott On Wed, Aug 1, 2012 at 8:27 AM, Scott Weisman wrote: > I started experiencing a severe problem with Chromium recently that ma

[arch-general] chromium crash when print dialog is invoked

I started experiencing a severe problem with Chromium recently that makes web browsing a very tedious experience. It took a while to narrow it down, but it seems that whenever the print dialog is invoked, either manually (eg ctrl-P on the keyboard) or by a page when clicking on the "printer friend

[arch-general] font changes after system upgrade

Hello, I recently upgraded my system and the fonts are now being rendered differently. They looked great before but are now blurry. I don't think it's because anti-aliased fonts are enabled before whereas before they weren't, because they were enabled before and looked great. Does anyone have any

[arch-general] speakers don't turn off when headphones inserted

Hello, I just obtained a Fujitsu P7120 notebook (a very nice model, by the way). Overall, I am getting this working with Arch just fine (although I would definitely appreciate pointers from anyone else who has installed Arch, especially as I have been using a desktop until now and haven't had the

[arch-general] keyboard indicator lights not working

Hello, At some point, the keyboard indicator lights stopped working. I know they aren't broken (and I've even used three separate keyboards). They used to work, but stopped at some point, but I don't remember when. Does anyone have any suggestion for this? Thanks, Scott

Re: [arch-general] problem with Firefox and Opera

Hello JaDa, Thanks for the reply. I did try your suggestion, but it didn't work. The problem is not Firefox or Opera (note that BOTH are affected, and I did uninstall and reinstall Opera as well, along with deleting all the detrius before reinstalling). It has something to do with the Shared Memor
