[arch-general] systemd 214, journal problem
by Stefan Tatschner 04 Jul '14

04 Jul '14

Hi, today I have run pacman -Syu on my arch server. Systemd was updated from 213 to 214 and now I don't get any new journal entries. I just get the messages from the boot process and that's all. Any ideas? Stefan

[arch-general] Trust This Computer?
by Hunter Jozwiak 01 Jul '14

01 Jul '14

Hi all. I've got an iPod touch fifth generation, iOS 7.1, and I am trying to mount it to my Arch Linux box so I can get all the music off it. However, when I connect the cable, I get an alert from the iPod asking if I trust the computer. I tell it trust, and the computer, running Gnome, says the iPod is locked by a passcode, which is not true. I did install libimobiledevice and gvfs and that didn't help. Any help or pointing in the right direction is very much appreciated.

[arch-general] Docked Lenovo T540p Not Recognizing Dual Monitors
by Jude Lucien 28 Jun '14

28 Jun '14

I unfortunately have a Lenovo T540p laptop and an UltraDock docking station. Plugged into the docking station is a Lenovo monitor via DVI and an Ilyama monitor via VGA. The monitors are not recognised by xrandr as being separate monitors, and the output mirrors each other. The output of xrandr -q: $ xrandr -q Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 4560 x 1620, maximum 32767 x 32767 eDP1 connected 2880x1620+1680+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 193mm 2880x1620 59.96*+ 50.00 2048x1536 60.00 1920x1440 60.00 1856x1392 60.01 1792x1344 60.01 1600x1200 60.00 1400x1050 59.98 1280x1024 60.02 1280x960 60.00 1024x768 60.00 800x600 60.32 56.25 640x480 59.94 VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP2 connected 1680x1050+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 255mm x 255mm 1680x1050 60.00*+ 1024x768 60.00 800x600 60.32 56.25 848x480 60.00 640x480 59.94 HDMI2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) eDP1 is my laptop monitor and DP2 is the Lenovo monitor. Notice the maximum screen size at the top of the output. I notice that I have more screen than I can use - how to set that to actual size as well? But the burning question is how can I get my VGA monitor to be recognised?

[arch-general] Chrooting to tmpfs in init
by Mark Lee 26 Jun '14

26 Jun '14

Salutations, I've been wondering if it's possible to chroot to a tmpfs instead of a partition in init. I'd like to decompress a 7zip root archive into a tmpfs and use that as root. This is different from using aufs2. Any suggestions as how I would go about doing this? Regards, Mark

[arch-general] New mailing list for AUR requests (delete, merge, orphan, ..)
by Florian Pritz 26 Jun '14

26 Jun '14

Hi, As requested by Lukas, I've created a new mailing list for AUR related requests such as deletion, merge or orphan requests. The AUR will soon feature a web interface to create such requests and for history and discussion purposes mails will be sent to this new list. Please start using it for new requests already (maybe wait a couple hours so TUs can subscribe). Discussion about anything apart from such requests should stay on aur-general. You can subscribe here[1]. [1]: https://mailman.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/aur-requests I expect traffic on aur-general to go down quite a lot due to this change, so if you aren't subscribed because of this request traffic feel free to give it another try now.
