[arch-based] TP-Link TL-WN822N losses

Hi. I need your help adjusting something wrong with my Arch-based distro and USB WiFi adapter: the last one is a TP-Link TL-WN822N.
The issue is this one: it often happens that automatically network disconnects from the home's WiFi network, not only when the computer is locked, but even if I'm surfing the internet or just using it.
Maybe this will help someone understanding something more specifically:
$ lsusb | grep TL-WN822N
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0cf3:7015 Atheros Communications, Inc. TP-Link TL-WN821N v3 / TL-WN822N v2 802.11n [Atheros AR7010+AR9287]
If you need some other tests, I obviously will do it.

Sorry, we can't help with "arch-based" distros as we have no idea what changes they have made.

Btrfs Arch-based rescue images

From linux-btrfs mailing list today :
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.fi … btrfs/3150
Hello everyone,
As Linus discovered, the new btrfs disk format in 2.6.31-git can be
problematic if your FS gets forward rolled to the new format and you end
up bisecting back to the old code.
It would also be nice to have a way to run btrfsck on a root filesystem
and do other assorted tasks. So, I'm making live boot usb images for
both x86 and x86-64.
They should have enough to get your filesystems mounted and they also
include git, gcc, make and enough to compile the kernel. These are
based on the Arch 2.6.30 distro with just the btrfs newformat code
added.
I've got the 32 bit image uploaded, and I'll queue up 64 bit overnight.
If anyone is feeling brave, just dd the image onto a usb stick and
rescue boot away.
They work on both of my test boxes, but a little extra testing would be
nice.

It says "Many utils are supplied by busybox" so I'd call it loosely based on Arch.

Reports based on Linked Universes in BOXI 3.0 do not work

We have noticed that reports based on linked Universes do not work. We have imported our (BO) documents/Universes into the BOXI R2 environment, upgraded to BOXI 3.0 and now found this issue in InfoView which affects a lot of our reports, details as follows:
When refreshing a (Deski) report in InfoView, get a dialogue box titled "Refreshing Data" with no error message;
Click on OK, and it seems the report does not get refreshed;
Click on Refresh again, this time get prompt dialogue box;
Enter prompt, click on Run Query;
Get another dialogue box titled "Prompts" with message "SetPrompts failed - click on OK;
Click on a TAB in the report - get error message, title "Report" with message "The document instance is no longer available. Please reopen the document (Error:RFC 00421);

Custom Content type based on "Link to a Document" does not open new folder in a dialog

Hi,
We have created a custom Content Type based on "Link to a Document" (0x01010A) into a document library. When I use the New Document button on the ribbon, the "Link to a document" form appears on the same window, not as a dialog. If we
use the "link to a document" content type it works fine.
This issue occurs when creating the content type from the SharePoint UI as well as via XML (provisioning the content type).
Is it a SharePoint bug or are we missing something?
Thanks!
Sergio

Hi S3rgiones,
I can reproduce your issue, when create a custom content type based on “Link to a Document” content type, create item using the content type, it will open the NewLink.aspx page in the same window not the modal dialog.
In this situation, you can try to custom the content type and customize the form page for it, specify it in the content type customization, if this doesn’t work, you may need to custom the content type not inherit from the default link to
a document, but customize it yourself.
Thanks,

List of arch based distros

Can someone give me a list of arch based distros? thanks

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch_Linux … vironments
Here's a list of Arch-related distros. There are probably more floating around somewhere.

Arch-based medical distro

I started a simple project to build an arch-based distro for medical professionals
The base install is ready and my own-developed simple medical apps are in development to be included...
I was searching for more apps to include (medical image viewer, electronic medical records) and I found a lot of options, and have no idea what to include and where to start.. I never used any of them, (still a medical student), and I was wondering anyone could help in bringing birth to this distro?
Suggesting apps, or maybe helping in building and packaging apps not available in the official repo or the AUR? or even only testing?
Any interest?!

hadiyazdi wrote:I started this to learn more about archiso and then after having my custom arch image ready, I had this idea in mind... I guess I was a little over enthusiastic
No worries - far better to be occasionally over enthusiastic, then never enthusiastic enough. There simply may be more productive ways to channel that enthusiasm: more productive both for you, your would-be users, and the rest of the arch community.
First, let me highlight the real problem with spin-off distros. You certainly could put together an installation iso with all the right stuff for a medical professional to put an arch-based system on their computer and start using it. But are you going to commit to maintaining it and doing all the hard work that really comes with maintaining a distrobution? If not, the best case scenario is that your distro would be a passing fad, and you'd get (probably less than) your 15 minutes of micro-fame. The more realistic scenario is that your distro would be just a fart in the wind - and as a result, so too would be your enthusiasm for contributing in other ways.
In contrast to all this, there are very productive ways to channel any such enthusiasm. A majority (if not all) of the great things about archlinux have come from one person scratching their own personal itch, then sharing the products with the community. This way they are giving back to the community - but it is not purely selfless: they are appreciated by the community. How small would be your target audience for the new distro? You'd tell a few collegues, and maybe one or two of them would share it with a few of theirs ... pretty small. But if you see software that could be useful to medical professionals that is lacking in archlinux and instead you make/improve AUR packages, or even set up an unofficial repo with the precompiled binaries, then any medical professional who searches the AUR can find your products.
Further benefits of this approach are that now your contribution will likely last much longer. There will be more users to benefit from it, and more to appreciate your contribution. And when you inevitably get too busy to maintain a few of the AUR packages, or the repo, there will be a much larger pool of potential volunteers to take over - thus preserving the 'legacy' of your contribution.
I suppose this all lends itself well to a parable of sowing seeds on different types of ground. Suffice it to say that being a successful farmer may have more in common with being a successful archer than one would first suspect.
And in contrast to my initial answer of "No", I would be happy to help you get PKGBUILDs working for all the tools you would like to make available in the AUR or in a custom repo. I also suspect many others here would be much more welcoming to this as well.

Making arch-based distro

Hello.
I started to make Arch-based distro. I have fully installed Arch + Openbox.
I have a couple of questions:
- How can I make an ISO from installed system I have?
- I haven't installed drivers for my graphics because if I respin it into a new system, users with nvidia graphics, for e.g. will involve with problems then. How can I avoid that, i mean, is there a script that will recognize graphics and download drivers for it?
That's all for now. Arch with Openbox and some setup rox.

Bodhi Linux Arch-based build, need dev(s) and supporting team members

Hello forum,
First, apologies if I have posted this topic in the wrong thread. I am writing to inquire as to whether or not there are any other Arch users and/or developers that would be interested in assisting Jeff Hoogland with his new distro, Bodhi Linux, and working on an Arch-based build. Bodhi Linux is a Ubuntu-based distribution that uses Enlightenment as the desktop environment and is focused on promoting the light weight, beauty, and speed of Enlightenment while remaining minimalist. Jeff has plans to release a Fedora-based version of Bodhi in the future, as well as an Arch-based build, but he would need some help, specifically with the OS disc itself. He can work on the Enlightenment side of things. Is there anyone interested in working on such a project? If you haven't heard of Bodhi Linux already, please visit http://bodhilinux.com/

Greg_S. wrote:ANOKNUSA, you think it's wasted energy? "Throw-away distro" is it?
Sorry if this seems unduly harsh. I wasn't trying to troll, but merely reiterating what others here have said. The Bodhi Linux developers are certainly within their right to direct their efforts in any way they wish. However, they have two serious conceptual flaws they need to consider and overcome:
1) Are the devs planning on releasing both x86 and AMD64 versions of Bodhi? Even if not, this still means that once the project gets going, they'll need to build the entire E17 compilation three times a week; if so, they'll need to do so six times a week. This is very tedious and time-consuming for a group of people working in their spare time, with no financial backing or chance for compensation. Naturally, it leaves very little time to maintain the rest of the repos, discuss/research/pursue further development, track bug reports, etc. The latter is worth noting, since
2) The devs will need to keep track of bugs and development roadmaps for three different distros, each with their own kernel patches, boot/init protocols, etc. They'll need to build separate packages and "tune" separate repos for each spin, provide a forum(s) able to handle questions regarding each spin, with devs and moderators specializing in each spin.
This is an awful lot of work to simply "showcase E17 and give it the 'love' it deserves." The Enlightenment devs are the ones providing the weekly snapshots on SVN; the Bodhi devs just package them. If promotion of Enlightenment DR17 is the ultimate goal, it could be better accomplished by establishing and promoting a PPA for Ubuntu, a PKGBUILD or PUR for Arch, and a (name of unofficial repo here) for Fedora. This would make an up-to-date version of E17 readily available, and require only promotion and packaging on the part of the maintainers. Bug reports could be sent directly to the Enlightenment folks with no need for an intermediary, as well as to the appropriate distro, rather than sending them to Bodhi which must then check to see if the problem is one extant in the base distro concerned before applying efforts to fix the problem. Just think: you get a bug report and begin to reseach it, only to find out it's a problem you inherited from Ubuntu which in turn inherited it From Debian [unstable]. Where does that leave you? If you do manage to fix the problem, then the only decent thing to do would be to share whatever patch/code changes you made with the folks upstream anyway.
I ain't trying to be a killjoy here, and I'm definitely not trying to discourage the commitment and spirit of contribution the Bodhi folks obviously have; just the opposite. Besides, it does look like you found at least one Archer willing to help you guys, so whatever ends up happening, I wish you all good luck with it.

Maintaining Multiple Arch Installs, Symbolic Links, BTRFS

Hi again.
A quick update on my previous post (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=164627). The GRUB problem I was having seems to have stopped. I got a very useful recommendation regarding pacman and XBMC still hasn't been fixed, but is fully usable with the workaround I am using and have just gotten used to it so it's not so much of an issue now. I think now that it should be marked as solved but how do I do that? Was looking around but guess I'm just missing it.
Anyway now I have a few more issues, or more just questions I guess that I would like help on. Recently I found an old laptop of mine and so to learn more about the Arch system I decided to try and install Arch. Now this laptop is around 5-6 years old and I haven't been able to get WiFi working fully for around 3 years and eventually upgraded 2 years ago to my current laptop. The WiFi was always 'soft-locked' until after about 4-5 restarts (in windows it was fine, but any Linux Distribution post Ubuntu 10.10 had the same issue). The issues still remains in other distributions even after "rfkill all". In Arch ever since running that command (the first boot from install media the issue occurred) this laptops WiFi has been brilliant. I also installed XFCE4 desktop for speed of set up. Now I'm looking to give my laptop to my younger brother before he heads of to University in September until he can afford a new one (or he breaks this one - somehow his laptops never last), as this old one now runs better than it ever did on Windows Vista. My girlfriend is also looking for me to install Linux again on her laptop (we used WUBI in the past) but a full install since her Windows Vista laptop is near unusable in Windows. So far I have got hamachi set up between my new and old laptop, this gives static IP addresses and will allow me to SSH into the laptop for upgrades every so often. I'm planning to do the same for my girlfriends laptop. Would I be stupid to do this via Arch? I've heard it breaks often and I don't want to have to be doing fixes for other peoples laptops as I won't have the time to do so. I guess the reason I want to use Arch is both laptops are quite old and Arch has breathed new life into my old one.
Secondly I have symbolic links set up in my "Music" and "Video" folders in my home directory to their counterparts in my Windows partition. However my music player "Clementine" doesn't find every album in the music folder. Does symbolic links have "flaws" like this or is it more likely to be my music player behaving badly with symbolic links? I would try another music player but I can't seem to find one which plays FLAC files with external / embedded .cue files so can't really test this out. I can of course link directly to the location but I thought I would ask, just to learn more I guess.
Now when I installed Arch using BTRFS file system I didn't know that I had to mount using compression immediately, I thought I could add it to the fstab at a later point - obviously not. Now I found a command which will defragment my drive and supposedly compress everything. However this command doesn't make any sense to me and I don't want to just run it without knowing what it does. Could anyone other me any insight into this please? Also does defragmentation after the fstab mount options have been added cause the compression?
"find -xdev -type f -exec btrfs fi defrag '{}' \;"
or I also found
"btrfs filesystem defragment ~/stuff"
Thanks for any help, I understand this post is quite long so I really appreciate it.

Ah right thanks. I thought as much which is why I asked before I did so, I'll find another distribution. Just where I've been running Arch for a few weeks now and haven't had to do any maintenance at all really, but weren't too sure what I'd be in for in the long-run. I mean to be fair I was always planning on another distribution but as I was playing around at first on the old laptop I ended up with my current way to SSH in and just wondered if it would be viable to do it this way.
I knew it would be a driver issue at the core of my problem, just weren't too sure if it something else could of been affecting it. Guess I'll try and find another distribution which runs near as new software to Arch as possible as it seems the issue has been fixed in newer versions of the kernel and drivers. Granted the old laptop had been unused for around a year so any update in the last year could of fixed it in this case. Thanks for your input!

New FaunOS Live Arch-Based DVD/USB Distro Now Available

Hello fellow archers,
We have just released the latest version of FaunOS. Since this version of FaunOS is the answer to the most important question in the universe, we have named it "fortytwo."
FaunOS-fortytwo contains many improvements over previous releases and more packages (575 total). Improvements, in no particular order, include:
- Improved wireless support, both wlassistant and knetworkmanager are now included.
- Improved automatic X configuration with 3D acceleration.
- Better boot splash support. We have moved to fbsplash which seems to work pretty consistently and has lead to a faster boot time.
- A new boot option for quickly booting into a console-based system with no X windows.
- A new boot option for machines that hang when booting from DVDs using piix modules.
- Ability to save FaunOS session back to a multi-session DVD-+R or DVD-+RW.
- Permanent Arch Linux Installer using archin.
- Permanent FaunOS Installer for creating additional FaunOS USB drives from within FaunOS and for performing a "frugal" install to hard drive. Frugal install (not to be confused with Frugal Linux) installs the compressed FaunOS files to a hard drive permanently leading to an "unbreakable desktop" meaning the end user can totally ruin everything at runtime. To revert back to the starting point all the user has to do is reboot the machine and everything goes back to normal since all changes happen in ram, unless the FaunOS session is saved at boot time.
- FaunOS is probably the only live distro that can perform two kinds of installations.
- New added packages include: wlassitant, madwifi, firmware packages for ipw2100 and ipw2200, ndiswrapper, lynx for text-based web browsing, and kmobiletools accessing phone books and other information on mobile phones.
- All packages have been upgraded to the latest from the Arch repos as of today, 8/27/2007.
- And, most importantly, a new logo.
We have also decided to stay away from the evil 2.6.22 kernel which seems to have created more bugs and headaches than introducing new features, no flame war intended. The latest 2.6.21-faunos kernel is based on the stock arch kernel with the addition of the fbsplash patch from genpatches.
There are those people that may think FaunOS is bloated, but we like to think that it is a muscular and strong live Linux distribution, thanks to Arch. Of course keeping with Arch's KISS principal, we have tried to make FaunOS simple and easy enough for anyone to use.
You can get the latest version at:
http://www.faunos.com/downloads/faunos-fortytwo
A new wiki has been created at http://wiki.faunos.com. Feel free to contribute and change the wiki as you wish.
Our support and discussion forums can still be found at http://forum.faunos.com
We can definitely use some mirrors for our downloads. We will also be creating a torrent shortly and can use some seeders. Please let us know either here or in the FaunOS forums if you can help in any way.
We'll see ya at the FaunOS forums!
So long and thanks for all the fish,
Raymano

We have simply used larch but with some additions and changes:
- FaunOS uses a slightly modified version of larch with the added ability to build a live system from a preinstalled partition on the harddrive.
- Added fbsplash capabilities to the initial initrd images and kernel.
- Applications on FaunOS are preconfigured and integrated to work out of the box.
- Some kernel specific modules/packages have been compiled for the FaunOS kernel, e.g. ndiswrapper.
- All services are pre-configured to execute out of the box.
- All available codecs are included.
- 3D desktop using beryl is preconfigured to run on intel based graphics cards and some ATI cards with a click of a button.
- Network management is simplified with use of knetworkmanager and wlassistant.
- Storage are is included on the FaunOS device to share files with other platforms.
- R/W access Windows parititions by clicking on an icon in KDE.
- Common grub booting on USB and DVD. With multiple boot options for graphical and non-graphical system.
- FaunOS's own mkxorgconf utility was added (using hwd) for better automatic configuration of graphics cards. This includes setting up AIGLX.
- Easily performs frugal install of the live FaunOS system to hard drive, including saved overlays. This was not part of the original larch scripts.
- Use of sudo to allow the user to perform certain system wide configuration tasks.
- Integrated flash java and mplayer plugins for Firefox.
- Ability to put a computer running FaunOS into sleep (suspend-to-ram), remove the FaunOS media, boot and work on other computers with the FaunOS device, return to the original computer, insert the FaunOS device, turn on the computer and continue working where you left off. This in not possible with latest Arch Linux because of the kernel.
- And we believe, most importantly, you can hand a FaunOS DVD to a user with no knowledge of Linux and say go try this out.

Comment based help, .link online version

Hello,
Sorry for what's probably a very stupid question but I'm banging my head against the wall. I'm trying to add a link to .LINK so that it appears as Online Version:
https://www.somesite.com like with what you see with Get-Help Get-Service in related links.
I can get it to work just by doing the below but it won't work with the online switch with get help. Any light to shine on the subject? The error I get is "The online version of this help topic cannot be display because the internet address (URI) of the
help topic is not specificied in the command code or in the help file for the command. I can fix it but just leaving the address there and taking out "Online Version".
<#
.LINK
Online Version: https://www.microsoft.com
#>

Hi SysNetEng,
this is due to the difference between XML based help and Comment Based Help (CBH). In the XML version a link has two properties (linkText and uri), while in CBH you only have the option to provide text. Get-Help -Online will interprete the first line in
its entirety as its target uri, and if that's not a valid one ...
So if you want this optic, you'll have to go to XML based help.
Cheers,
Fred

Binding Sub Report based on link clicked in main report in BIDS

Is it possible to bind Sub Report based on the link clicked in main report which is the parameter for sub report in BIDS?

Hi Thanuja534,
If I understand correctly, you want to add a drillthough action on a report to jump into another report with a specified parameter.
A report can contain links to other reports. The report that opens when we click the link in the main report is known as a drillthrough report. Drillthrough reports are a type of report that we access by clicking a link in the current report. When we click
a text box that has a drillthrough action, we open the drillthrough report. If the drillthrough report has parameters, we must pass parameter values to each report parameter.
Besides, drillthrough reports must exist on the same report server as the main report, but they can be in different folders. We can add a drillthrough link to any item that has an Action property, such as a text box, an image, or data points on a chart.
For more information about adding parameters to pass to a Drillthrough Report, please see:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337477(v=sql.105).aspx
If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Identifier based credentials- linking multi identifiers to one course?

We have instructors teaching serveral sections of the same course and each course has an unique identifier linked to that course.In our itunes U we have multi classes named the same (taught by the same instructor)and use unique identifiers. How can I use multi identifiers for a course so those instructors who are teaching multi sections will only need to post their podcasts under one class and all sections of students can access?
Windows XP Pro Iowa Valley Community College

Unless I am mistaken, identifier-based credentials are only designed to work with one identifier per course. However, you can manually create multiple credentials instead of using the identifier.
For example: let's say an instructor teaches 3 sections of Intro to Psychology and wants students in all 3 sections to have access to one course on iTunes U. The sections have IDs that are sent from your authentication system as PSY-100-01, PSY-100-02, and PSY-100-03.
You would create the course and leave the Identifier field blank, since you cannot use identifier-based credentials for this course. Then click on the course and click Edit Access, and click the little + button to the left of the word Credentials and create a new credential like this:
Download - Learner@urn:mace:iavalley.edu:PSY-100-01
That will allow students in the first section to access this iTunes U course. Now repeat the process for the other two sections:
Download - Learner@urn:mace:iavalley.edu:PSY-100-02
Download - Learner@urn:mace:iavalley.edu:PSY-100-03
Now students in all 3 sections will have access to this one course in iTunes U. This requires a little more than just using the identifier to automatically provide access to students and instructors in the course, but I think it's the only way to set it up for multiple sections linked to a single iTunes U course.

Arch based distro - same repository?

hey,
i got a question.
let's say i'm making a new ,archlinux based distro. must i use own repositorys then or can i just use archs repositories? i won't really make a new distro (no time for that) but i always asked myself this question.
pure curiosity.

Ιf it's rolling, I guess there is no problem, but you need to make it clear (on the distro site for example) that the most of work done is thanks to the Archlinux devs, if you are gonna use the official repos.
Chakra-project for example is Arch+KDEmod, thus it currently* uses the official repos.
*they are gonna make their distro, afaik, non-rolling.

Lowarch 0.1.1 (Savitri) - i486 Arch based Distro - Released

I needed to make a new release now, since the current repo address has changed, so the old install cd and floppies don't work for ftp install anymore (without changing the url, of course).
But there are of course package upgrades and bug fixes as well. And now all the install floppies are finished. There's also the ongoing process of deleting unimportant packages and adding new useful ones.
Quite a few people have joined and done some very useful testing. I'm always happy to hear about problems and other experiences with different systems (old and new). So give it a try if you have some free disk space, time and think it's fun.

cr7 wrote:when I need to customize my rc.conf, I have to set the keymap as "i386/qwerty/it.map.gz", instead of "it_IT" as in Arch Linux.
Shouldn't it be just 'it', not it_IT? I thought it_IT is for locale. I use 'no' (Norwegian) without problems.
cr7 wrote:If I want to recompile the entire system for i586, with updated packages, how can I do? :?:
I'm running lowarch on a Pentium M, and I can't say I have noticed any difference in speed between Arch and Lowarch on it. I doubt you will see any difference at all with the system compiled for i586 instead of i486.
But if you think it's fun to try out things, here's how:
Download http://www.lowarch.org/abs.tar.bz2 which is the current abs tree. (I don't have access to cvs server or similar, so I can't set up normal abs access.
Change the /etc/makepkg.conf
Extract the abs.tar.gz (it'll be called abs-clean because my abs tree has all the source files, so I have a script copying all the files except source files to abs-clean)
in the abs-clean directory use makeworld to build all the packages.
(On the 166Mhz It will last, oh, about, let's see /me is calculating ....ahh about an eternity...) If you'll use a i686 machine for the compiling, you should install lowarch on it, and use the uname hack (search for it, I don't have the link in my head, if you don't find it, tell me).
Then use gensync to create a custom repo of the files.
