[arch-general] Blender Bus Error
by Nicolás Adamo 14 May '11

14 May '11

Hi! I'm still waiting for the new version of psb-kmod driver for the GMA500 (poulsbo) video card; but until then I'm trying to see why can't I run blender. Jesse Jara told me to compile the git version of ... "You could try to build the git version of mesa and intel driver. And see if it works. You may want to stip the mesa-git PKGBUILD to pnöy build intel parts, if you dont have a more powerfull desktop pc. " but yaourt hangs with some dependency. Here's a valgrind output of blender: http://pastebin.com/NwhDjT0h I'd like to know if it's related to the video driver and if somenone succeeded running blender on this crappy video card. Thanks

[arch-general] Display Manager rc.d scripts
by Grigorios Bouzakis 13 May '11

13 May '11

Hello, can anyone think of a reason the rc.d scripts are added to kdm, gdm and slim? They are not recommended by anyone & they are to be blame for occasional weird problems. The standard and IMO only way is to start them from inittab. They dont come from upstream & i dont know when they were added, i remember them being there ever since i started using Arch, they may come from CRUX or something. I am considering requesting them removal from all display managers. In [0] Pierre said some people want to keep them for backwards compatibility. Backwards compatibility is desired only when something works correctly. Thoughts?

[arch-general] LibreOffice build error/linker bug?
by Andreas Radke 13 May '11

13 May '11

In preparation of LibO 3.4 release my i686 build crash always at the same point. It seems to me to be a bug in our linker package. No other distribution seems to run into this, upstream has no clue so far. So I'm asking here for help. The stuff is in trunk.

[arch-general] GPT not recognise after swapping internal and external drives
by Laurent Kappler 12 May '11

12 May '11

Hi list, I'm changing computer, Asus A600 to a Thinkpad T60. My configuration on the Asus is an internal IDE magnetic drive and an external SATA SSD drive. The system boot from the SSD and hold the /, /home partitions. The internal IDE disk holds the /op, /var and an 3rd partition mounted somewhere else, not really important. The T60 contains an internal SATA bay. So I swaped disks, putting the SATA SSD drive inside and using the IDE disk as external. The boot menu show up, boot, but kind of fails recognising the drives, with errors like : Unhandled sense code. Still the right number of partition is recognised and and the GPT seems to work as /dev/disk/by-uuid show the right symlinks to the partitions. I launched gdisk sda which tells me no GPT but MBR yes do you want to convert your MBR to GPT....I'm not going this way. So the GPT seems broken here. I put back the disk in my Asus and it all work perfectly again. Do you know a way I could fix that? Thank you Laurent
