[arch-general] Subversion server - authentication problem
by Paulo Santos 22 May '09

22 May '09

Greetings everyone, I've been trying to create a Subversion repository without success. I end up always with the same error: 403 Forbidden. I've followed the wiki [1] doing exactly the same as described there (except the path and username) and I don't understand. I set the permissions, checked the ssl paths over and over again, the same with .svn-policy-file and nothing... Trying the link in the browser, accept the certificate and pass the basic authentication and there it is, the 403 page. I don't get prompted again for authentication so it's the right one. Using svn -co, the same thing: svn: Server sent unexpected return value (403 Forbidden) in response to OPTIONS request for 'https://localhost/svn/repo' Does anyone have any idea what can be wrong? Maybe some common mistake or something... Thanks in advance, Paulo Santos [1] http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Subversion_Setup

[arch-general] dictionary for evolution
by Baho Utot 22 May '09

What dictionary does evolution use for spell checking? It tells me I have only the Turkish available, but since I don't know Turkish I need to change this to something I know about. Thanks

[arch-general] libdrm stuck at 2.4.9
by Damjan Georgievski 22 May '09

22 May '09

Does anyone know why the i686 version of libdrm is stuck at version 2.4.9 (the x86_64 is up-to-date at 2.4.11)? http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=libdrm I don't mind it much, since I've compiled my own package, but each time I try to -Syu pacman wants to downgrade to 2.4.9 and it's a bit annoying :) -- damjan

[arch-general] hal has lost its mind again.
by David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. 21 May '09

21 May '09

Listmates, On my laptop, automounting of usb drives and mmc/sd cards were working fine, now I get the "...mount.removable no <-- (action, result)" Full error dialog: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/bugs/hal-mount.removable.jpg The system configures the drives or cards just fine, it just will not create the directory under /media to allow access. It is really ironic because the drives/cards are fully accessible under "media:/". So, nothing in "/media", but OK in "media:/". I am concerned that changes made in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/20-ntfs-config-write-policy.fdi to allow NTFS mounts messed something else up. The file contains: <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <match key="volume.fstype" string="ntfs"> <match key="@block.storage_device:storage.hotpluggable" bool="true"> <merge key="volume.fstype" type="string">ntfs-3g</merge> <merge key="volume.policy.mount_filesystem" type="string">ntfs-3g</merge> </match> </match> </device> </deviceinfo> which is straight from the wiki. The everything log contains the following: May 17 02:50:23 alchemy kernel: tifm_core: MMC/SD card detected in socket 0:1 May 17 02:50:23 alchemy kernel: mmc1: new SD card at address e624 May 17 02:50:23 alchemy kernel: isa bounce pool size: 16 pages May 17 02:50:23 alchemy kernel: mmcblk0: mmc1:e624 SD02G 1.89 GiB May 17 02:50:23 alchemy kernel: mmcblk0: p1 May 17 02:55:20 alchemy hald: mounted /dev/mmcblk0p1 on behalf of uid 0 May 17 03:06:54 alchemy kernel: ACPI: EC: missing confirmations, switch off interrupt mode. I don't know if the ACPI kernel message is evidence of the problem, but I included it just in case. I am slowly trying to make friends with hal/dbus, but I could use any help you can give in sorting this out. Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

[arch-general] Arch Linux on Go-OO download page?
by Ondřej Kučera 21 May '09

21 May '09

Hello, a couple of Linux distributions are mentioned at http://go-oo.org/download/ with a short info about how to install it. However, Arch Linux is not among them. I expect that if someone wrote them that Arch Linux has Go-OO in its repository as well, they'd be willing to add that message there. I'd write them myself but I suppose it would be better if it was done by someone "more official" (e. g. a developer). Opinions? Ondřej -- Cheers, Ondřej Kučera

[arch-general] kde dark themes
by David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. 21 May '09

kdeusers, If you haven't tried a dark theme for your kde desktop yet, you are missing out on some really cool looks. I toyed with dark themes over the years, but never really found one that worked. After being inspired to try again by senior Rosenstrauch posted one to the list, I took another look and came up with something I really like. It consists of color-themes for kde, emerald, and kate/kwrite. Other than that you just need to change the foreground color for konqueror and any of your web browsers, etc. I'll just post the links to the themes since you can't post it all here. Give it a shot, I bet you will like it. Small screenshots of the desktop theme and kicker background: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/kde/screenshots/kde-dark-them… http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/kde/screenshots/kickersteel.j… kde color-schemes (import under kde control center -> colors): http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/kde/color-themes/dcr-Blue.kcs… emerald theme for compiz (import in emerald theme manager): http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/emerald/dcr%20Dark%20Blue-Gra… kate/kwrite/quanta color scheme (put in ~/.kde/share/config): http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/kde/kateschemarc A kicker background (kde control center -> Desktop -> Panel -> Appearance): http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/kde/kicker/kickersteelarch2.p… There are a few alternate themes and backgrounds in the above directories, so you can pick and choose if you like. And DR, since you started this whole thing, and I appreciate it, if you notice the "R" icon on my kicker panel that is set atop flames, I've put two sizes on the server (40x40 and 140x140) just in case you have a use for them ;-) See: http://www.3111skyline.com/download/Archlinux/kde/icons/ -- David C.
