so then for each of the deps i get ..

Pete

maybe activate the multilib-repo and try again, there you should find the needed packages

In linux entering your password on the console doesn't display **** chars instead the it just simply stays black, but the password is there.

Works like a charm! Only when I closed it, there was much output "[snip] Another crash happened while handling crash!" During usage there where no messages.

We can't help you without any error messages. As I told you before, it works fine on my machine. The AUR package is fine. == John http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/s0930006/ -- The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336.
