[arch-general] Gtk update messed up thunderbird thread marker triangles??
by David C. Rankin 01 Feb '12

Guys, It seems one of the latest updates did something to the little triangle thread markers in thunderbird that show when a thread has responses. Now the triangles for collapsed threads look like little squiglies. The downward facing triangles showing expanded threads look OK. Anybody else see this? Does this look like a Gtk issue or an issue with thunderbird? This screenshot shows what I'm seeing: [64k] http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/img/misc/tbird-triangles-arch.jpg -- David C.

[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: $ sudo pacman -Uv linux-custom-3.2.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz Root : / Conf File : /etc/pacman.conf DB Path : /var/lib/pacman/ Cache Dirs: /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ Lock File : /var/lib/pacman/db.lck Log File : /var/log/pacman.log GPG Dir : /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/ Targets : linux-custom-3.2.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz loading packages... resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts... :: linux-custom and linux are in conflict (kernel26). Remove linux?
