Puled the update today and nothing was happening. Moved the geary folder and configured it new and now it's getting weird. I'm using IMAP with 2 different mail providers. The snyc with web.de is fine but not with the freenet.de account. All I see is the outbox folder :-O KR Frank --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

[arch-general] Moving the root filesystem to a multipath device
by Ary Kleinerman 21 Oct '14

21 Oct '14

Hi there, I'm working with a EMC Fibre Channel storage and I need to move the root filesystem to a multipath device. Ubuntu has a package named "multipath-tools-boot" that modify the initramfs and adds the script, modules and binary for multipath. I do not know much about mkinitcpio, but I think I need a hook for multipath. Can someone help me with this? Regards, Ary

[arch-general] Kernel code dump retrieval
by Leonidas Spyropoulos 21 Oct '14

21 Oct '14

Hello list, I'm experiencing an issue while compiling big projects (i.e. linux kernel but not limited to that). The issue seems to be related to CPUFREQ and I'm trying to track it down. While compiling the linux-ck kernel the kernel panics and produce a core dumps. I'm trying to get the core dump but I'm not able to access it after hard reset. I tried enabling journalctl Storage=Auto to write to disk without luck. My FS is btrfs and the CPU is AMD FX-8120. The CPU is not overclocked [1] and the Cool And Quiet is enabled alond with other power saving options in BIOS (like C6 State). How can I access the kernel core dump after crash? [1] The memory controller is running at 1866MHz Thanks, Leonidas --

[arch-general] Geary

Hi there, I'm running Openbox and use Geary as mail client. Since the appearance of Gnome 3.14 in stable Geary remains blank. I don't see my mail folder or mails at all. Not sure if Geary is connecting to the mail server at all since there is no feedback. KR Frank --- Alle Postfächer an einem Ort.

[arch-general] Plasma 5 - how to start afresh
by SET 19 Oct '14

19 Oct '14

Hello, I would like to restart the DE as if for the first time, and I don't know where the Plasma 5 user files are stored. There's no $HOME/.kde5 nor $HOME/.kf{,5}. Upon first start, the initial step was to localize the env to fr_FR. systemsettings crashed and/or hanged after choosing the relevant locale in all 4 existing tabs (translations, spell check, format, date time). After the third time I closed/restarted the session, the target locale finally prevailed. Not all strings are translated, I suppose a full l10n package will be avilable later on. So I wish to repeat the same steps, just to see if I run in the same crash/hang. Please advise how I can delete all kf5 settings ? Thanks.

[arch-general] Evolution 3.12.7 segmentation fault
by Ralf Mardorf 19 Oct '14

Hi, after upgrading Evolution, it doesn’t work anymore. Downgrading to the version that did work before, doesn’t solve the issue. I didn’t install the evolution plugins that seem to replace bogofilter and spamassassin. Unfortunately I didn’t find out, how to display the coredumps. For further information please take a look at [1]. How can I make 3.12.5 working again, without restoring my complete Arch Linux install from a backup?

[arch-general] Catalyst and GNOME 3.14
by Robbie Smith 18 Oct '14

18 Oct '14

Hi everyone. Is anyone else having issues trying to start GNOME 3.14 with the Catalyst driver for AMD/ATI cards? I've got one of those laptops with the dual AMD cards (discrete and onboard), and the open-source drivers have never worked for me, forcing me to use Catalyst. With the latest update to GNOME 3.14, trying to log in results in the fail screen, and the system logs report that gnome-shell has been trying to restart too many times. The best my Google-fu can discover is that it's due to Wayland being a core part of GNOME… or something.
