An example of how far ArchLinux has come

Congratulations to the developers and packagers at Arch! I want to give a perfect example of how great this system is:
My system hasn't been touched for seven months.  I boot the system up, and do two things:
1) #! pacman -Sy pacman
2) #! pacman -Syu
3) reboot
Everything still works just like I had it back in January, hats off to y'all

are you talking about the arch kernel? i use devfs without recompiling. i cannot see devfs being removed from the kernel until udev is more stable/reliable/ etc

  • How Far Does The Ejected Disc Come Out?

    When you eject a disc out of your iMac, how far does it come out? Mine stops right before the middle circle. On my iBook it used to come out to about half way through the circle.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    HI Scott,
    Mine ejects to the middle of the disk. My iBook does that same as yours. Nothing to worry about.
    The idea here is to grab the disk from the inside circle and the outside circumference of the disk as to not leave fingerprints on the disk itself.

  • How far is it possible to upgrade a Mac Pro mid-2010 to the maximum extract.

    Hello
    How far is it possible to upgrade a Mac Pro mid-2010 to the maximum performance. I would be interested how far one could come close to the performance of the new Mac Pro 2013, or is it hopeless.
    My computer
    Mac Pro
    mid-2010
    Processor 2 x 2.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    Memory 14 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC
    Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB
    Software OS X 10.9.1 (13B42)
    Please excuse my english is not the best because.

    For what apps?
    Okay, you have the slower 2.4GHz processors, most have found that MHz still rule and matter, meaning a 6-core 3.4GHz for some applications (most) was the best and the sweet spot.
    So you could upgrade to a pair of 3.2GHz 4-core (cheapest) rather than splurge on two 6-core 3.34GHz (more expensive and more cores).
    First thing to do, put the system on a 256GB Samsung 840 SSD.
    For photoshop and graphics, invest in some more SSD ($US300 for 500GB) and put those on a PCIe SSD controller ($300 Sonnet Tempo Pro) and put Aperture/Lightroom on one, and use the 2nd SSD for scratch.
    RAM: 24-32GB would probably help all but the more casusalist of user.
    Tips and articles:
    http://www.macperformanceguide.com head to the TOPICS main page and there are dozens of sections each a different area of upgrade and optimization for applications. Storage, memory, how to, use arrays, backup strategy.

  • How to check  if all values from a dataset  has come to  an internal table

    How to check  if all values from a dataset  has come to  an internal table ?

    Hi,
    After OPEN DATASET statement check if sy-subrc = 0 if its success then proceed with split statement and save the dataset values into a internal table and while debugging the internal table you will find that whether all values get into internal table.
    Checking sy-subrc after OPEN DATASET statement is must to fill up the values in the internal table.
    For e.g.
    OPEN DATASET p_inpfile FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
      IF sy-subrc NE 0.
        WRITE :/ 'No such input file' .
        EXIT.
      ELSE.
    READ DATASET p_inpfile INTO loc_string.
          IF sy-subrc NE 0.
            EXIT.
          ELSE.
            CLEAR loc2.
    *Spliting fields in the file-
            REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '#' IN wa_string WITH ' '.
           SPLIT wa_string AT const INTO loc2-pernr
                                           loc2-werks
                                           loc2-persk 
                                           loc2-vdsk1.
    Hope you get some idea.
    Thanks,

  • How do you increase font size in Bridge using windows 7 and a 4k monitor?  It appears as though this issue has come up previously but there is no answer.

    How do you increase font size in Bridge using windows 7 and a 4k monitor?  It appears as though this issue has come up previously but there is no answer.

    Unfortunately this will require some new programming by Adobe and there's no way to know when that will happen. In the meantime, the only option I think you have available to you is to change your resolution so that your monitor is using fewer pixels per inch.
    Kinda blows the whole value of the newer monitor but I suppose you can switch back and forth from low res when you are working in Bridge to high res when you are working in PS.
    Sorry, but for the time being, that's about it.
    Best,

    A VLAN doesn't really distinguish between ports.  A switch does, though, "remember" (for some time) the source MAC as frames enter its ports.
    Tagged frames may contain more than VLAN ID, such as L2 CoS.

  • TS1292 my code on my itunes card has come off, how can i redeem it with =out the code,

    when trying to take the sticky off the back of the card all the code has come off. I do have receipt for it as i bought in a supermarket today, how can i redeem this itunes card now, as i paid 25pds.

    See this support article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292
    If you can't get the card to work after perusing that page, as will obviously not be possible if the code has come completely off, contact the iTunes Store Support; instructions are at the bottom of that article.
    Regards.

  • I have purchased an ex-corporate ipad air. it has come locked to the previous users ID. The purchase is from a reputable auctioneer of which receipts can be produced. How can i process the unlocking/deactivation of the previous apple ID.

    I have purchased an ex-corporate ipad air. it has come locked to the previous users ID. The purchase is from a reputable auctioneer of which receipts can be produced. How can i process the unlocking/deactivation of the previous apple ID.

    Unfortunately the situation as we understand it is that Apple will unlock phones locked by the original owner if they themselves provide proof of purchase. They will not unlock it at all for a subsequent owner who has bought it second-hand, however legitimately.
    The auction house have sold you an item which is not working as described and your argument is with them. They must take it back and refund your money. If as you imply the previous owner is absolutely not available then this phone is permanently unusable and there is no way whatever round that.
