[arch-general] Systemd screen brightness
by Michael Nawrocki 03 Jun '13

03 Jun '13

Hey everyone, I'm trying to get my laptop backlight keys (fn+f6/f7) to adjust the brightness of my toshiba laptop backlight. Previously, I had entered the following in my /etc/acpi/handler.sh to handle the acpi events generated when those keys were pressed: video/brightnessdown) echo $(($(cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness) -1)) > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness ;; video/brightnessup) echo $(($(cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness) +1)) > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness ;; However, as I am working on migrating to systemd, acpid no longer runs and hence does not handle these events. How can I write a similar handler into systemd? Thanks, Mike

[arch-general] [FYI] On ardour 3.1.10 and jack2-multilib 1.9.9.5
by Rashif Ray Rahman 02 Jun '13

02 Jun '13

Hello folks This is just a note so that you don't have to flag these packages unnecessarily: * ardour 3.1.10 is _not_ a source release It is a binary-only update from upstream. "The source code release remains unchanged (since translations are generated during the build process)." [1] :: Therefore extra/ardour 3.1-1 is current. * jack2 1.9.9.5 does not support mixed mode The 1.9.8 release is the last version of jack2 that supports the --mixed flag for direct 32-bit support on 64-bit. [2] A move to a traditional lib32 package is planned. :: Therefore community/jack2-multilib 1.9.8-4 is as current as possible.

Re: [arch-general] [arch-notifications] Orphan Extra package [perl-net-server] marked out-of-date

I have no idea why tainting behaviour seems to have changed with perl 5.18 (perldelta doesn't mention anything), but the only place I hit this problem was in spampd and there the variables were clearly tainted so I don't consider it a regression. If you are using that, please upgrade to the new version in AUR where I fixed those bugs. For more information about tainting please take a look at perlsec[1].

[arch-general] DKIM signed messages to mailing list - issue
by Genes Lists 01 Jun '13

01 Jun '13

Each time I send to the arch list I get a postmaster complaint about DKIM from postmaster(a)bctpe4hbiu.org My domain DKIM signs all mail - however my DKIM signature is passed through by the mail list package and of course now the message will fail DKIM check as the header has been modified and is no longer coming from my domain. I guess the list should remove incoming DKIM headers? gene
