[arch-general] Pulseaudio
by Christos Kotsaris 29 Nov '10

29 Nov '10

Well Morgan Gangwere since all of us Arch users understand this greatly important need to play a 13 year game on an 11 year old machine, we should rollback all changes and send pulseaudio in AUR where it belongs. I mean, we can't leave behind every cheap computer user who can't be bothered to buy even a 5 years old used machine, can we? I mean, Linux is about supporting antics isn't it? We should accomondate those needs, because we might lose this kind of user. He might just go and install Windows 7 on his coppermine. I mean, Windows always supported 11 year old pcs, why Arch wont? Please developers, reconsider.

[arch-general] problem with usb device recognition
by Scott Weisman 28 Nov '10

28 Nov '10

Hi Archers, I have a Logitech Quickcam 9000. It works great under Linux. Suddenly, it seems to have stopped working so great. I now get errors like this: Nov 28 22:29:07 gulliver kernel: hub 2-0:1.0: connect-debounce failed, port 5 disabled Nov 28 22:29:07 gulliver kernel: hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 2 I just upgraded and rebooted, as I saw a new kernel was available and thought that might solve the problem. But it still persists. Any suggestions? Scott

[arch-general] KDE 4.6beta1
by Stefano Avallone 25 Nov '10

25 Nov '10

I noticed that Andrea is already building and uploading packages for KDE 4.6beta1 to kde-unstable... wow, huge thanks! I just wanted to let you note that the (new) package kdeplasma-addons-runners- events has not been built, maybe because it is not listed in the pkgname section of the PKGBUILD. I discovered that by chance, because pacman says: warning: cannot resolve "kdeplasma-addons-runners-events", a dependency of "kde-meta-kdeplasma- addons" Many thanks for your great work, Stefano
