[arch-general] Problemas con HP1020
by Mario Daniel Carugno 30 Jul '10

30 Jul '10

Hola lista, tengo una impresora HP1020, y me esta dando algo de trabajo hacerla funcionar. En realidad, he seguido los pasos de un articulo del wiki, y logre hacerla funcionar. En dicho articulo, explica que el modulo usblp debe cargarse al configurar la impresora, pero despues, ese modulo no debe estar cargado para que la impresora funcione. Entonces proponen como solucion agregar la siguiente linea en /etc/rc.local rmmod usblp Esto funciona cuando booteo el sistema. El modulo se descarga y la impresora funciona. El problema es cuando apago y enciendo la impresora con Arch corriendo. Esta accion causa la recarga del modulo usblp, y la impresora deja de funcionar. Entonces, como puedo prevenir la carga de este modulo cuando enciendo la impresora ? Gracias

[arch-general] Pacman fails to update?
by Martín Cigorraga 30 Jul '10

30 Jul '10

Hi guys, I'm having this rare issue: several days ago I installed some things from [Testing] and because I don't wanna screw-up my system I turned it off. Since then, every day I check for updates -roughly 10 days more or less- pacman keeps telling it's all up-to-date while I know there's nearly everyday an update while not within several hours, at least in my system with what I have installed. Also I was using packer (a community tool to deal with AUR) which keeps telling some installed packages (14) were newer than those found in theire repos (not from AUR but from extra and community rpositories). Today I downloaded latest mirrorlist, did a # pacman -Syy && pacman -Suu and gave system is up-to-date which is in fact very strange, I mean, come on, there wasn't any updates in all these days? I don't think so :p But the weirdest thing is afeter issue those orders I did a $ packer -Syu to update AUR packages and guess what? I remember I had something like 140 packages installed from AUR but this time packer wanted to check for 1272 packages lol The weirdest thing? I can't install ABS, as you hear it, pacman can't found it in extra (or community or wherever it resides). So the million question here is: is there *any* way to initialize whole pacman and it local repositories cache? I think of it as the last resort to may be fix this. Thanks!

[arch-general] Arch forum closed for maintenance?
by dhave 29 Jul '10

29 Jul '10

I guess I'm enough of an addict to Arch info that not having access to the Arch forum for a few minutes is like Humphrey Bogart having to go without a cigarette after a nice meal. Is the forum presently down for maintenance? I get a request for a logon and password, and when I supply these (perhaps unwisely, if the forum is being hacked), I still don't get logged on. I'm assuming it's legitimate downtime for maintenance, but I haven't seen an announcement. Does anybody know?

[arch-general] makepkg and md5/sha1/etc
by Magnus Therning 29 Jul '10

29 Jul '10

makepkg has support for using hashes besides md5, but is there a way to get 'makepkg -g' to generate any hashes besides md5? Based on what I found in makepkg.conf(5) I modified the variable INTEGRITY_CHECK, both in ~/.makepkg.conf and /etc/makepkg.conf. But neither had any effect, 'makepkg -g' still insisted on generating md5 hashes. In the end this isn't very important, I'm just curious. /M -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe
