[arch-general] Problems with most recent gstreamer updates
by Sven-Hendrik Haase 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

Hey everybody, I was wondering whether anybody else had trouble since the update to extra/gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins 0.10.14-1 and extra/gstreamer0.10-good-plugins 0.10.16-1 using applications that make use of gstreamer. A couple of people including me seem to have issues with it that cause all gstreamer applications to fail. I'm bringing this up on the mailing list because I can't seem to find the root cause of the problem by myself and because gstreamer is a critical part of any Gnome setup (gnome-settings-daemon fails without it, for example). The problem on running gstreamer applications is this: Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal Even gnome-settings-daemon in debug mode has little more relevant info than this error message. Since gstreamer itself probably doesn't provide detail logs of what went wrong, I'm having trouble finding the cause. The gstreamer bug tracker doesn't have a bug filed on this so I don't know whether this is an Arch problem or an upstream problem. The Arch bug report is here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16060 Can you guys try to help out debugging? -- Sven-Hendrik

[arch-general] KDE packages orphaned?
by David Rosenstrauch 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

Just wondering: It looks like many of the KDE packages are now orphaned. e.g.: kdebase-dolphin, kdebase-konsole, etc. Anyone know why and/or if there's any plans for someone else to adopt them? Thanks, DR

[arch-general] How to specify configure options with makepkg
by Nigel Henry 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

I'm trying to install psychosynth from AUR. Ogre is one of the deps, but the comments on the psychosynth page say to compile Ogre with devIL, not freeimage, which is the default image loader. Configure says that I can set an option, --disable-freeimage, but where do I set this option when using makepkg to build Ogre? I have installed devil, so it's ready to be used by the configure script, which includes instructions for both freeimage, and devIL. Thanks for any help with this. Nigel.

[arch-general] [signoff] kernel26-lts 2.6.27.33-1
by Andreas Radke 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

New LTS kernel. No changes to the config, no further patching. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/887240 and because of a build issue http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/887529 I'd like to move it soon to core. Please give signoffs. If you don't use it try it out if it works for you as fallback and can boot into shell with a clean dmesg. Thanks. -Andy

[arch-general] Konsole problems
by Lars Tennstedt 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

Hello, I searched the forum and the bug database for this and did not find anything about it. I have a problem with Konsole. I am using KDE and the binary nvidia driver. The composite effets are enabled and my system is up to date. Sometimes Konsole's window disappears partially. Then I have to minimize and maximize the window to renew it. I did not recognize this behaviour when KDE 4.2 was installed on my system. Does anybody have similar problems? It is not a big problem at all. But it is a little bit annoying. Thanks for your help! Bye, Lars Tennstedt

Hi. Tobias Powalowski <t.powa(a)gmx.de>: > http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16094 No, I can't have two apps play at the same time. I'm not using KDE or Gnome at all - but it's more a gtkish system :) But perhaps a restart will fix this.
