Chase - automatic updater for Arch and KDE4

Hello people,
I just realized I did not introduce Chase yet to the whole Arch community.
Chase is a small KDED Daemon, very lightweight, based on aqpm that is able to monitor your system for updates, download and install them. It is integrated with Shaman and won't conflict with it. Some more details and a visual tour here: http://chakra-project.org/bbs/viewtopic.php?id=1303
I saw somebody created a pkgbuild for it (which I did not test): http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29567
Hope you will enjoy this one!

Yup, it's automatic _only_ if the user really wants to. In any case, he would be prompted to put the password and he is always forced to read the installation log output (the notification won't go away until you open the dialog), which carries all the various scriptlet output and stuff. Also, if the updater finds a question from libalpm, a conflict or whatever it will instantly stop and redirect the user to use Shaman or Pacman.
So yeah, already thought about this

  • Is Using the Automatic Update for Flash Player Safe? It is Installed In System Preferences On My Mac

    Hello-
    One day I noticed that there was an icon on my MacBook Pro of Adobe Flash on the last row of system Preferences.  I had never seen it before, and I had ben using Flash for a long time and updating it regularly.
    It recently told me there is a newer version.  I did not let it install it because I am having so many problems with viewing Flash Videos on websites.  I have a MacBook Pro, Mac OS X 10.6.8.  I use Safari 5.1.5, the latest as far as I know.
    In using this automatic updater for Flash (there are actually several tabs when I click the Adobe icon not just the updater) in the Advanced tab of the Flash Player icon are there any special things I should do if I click yes update?  should I close all the windows, apps, Safari?  do a restart?  I am debating if I should do a Clean Install, wipe all Flash Player off the Mac and just install the latest version rather then letting the updater install the latest version, which I think is 11.2.202.228.  I currently have 11.1.102.64 with a bunch of video issues.
    Thanks for any assistance.

  • How to get automatic updates for P750 custom build

    I recently purchased a custom built P750 and want to sign up for automatic updates. There is no option for just a P750 which is my complete model number.
    8GB ram
    I7 2.20GHz
    Windows HP SP1 with all updates installed at this time.
    How can I get automatic updates for this machine and operating system and if so, how do I get signed up for those?
    Should I just choose a model number and pretend it is the model I have? Which number should I choose?
    Jon
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Satellite P750 (PSAY3U-0RF03H)
    All computers in the same part-number family (PSAY3U) are essentially the same. The drivers and utilities for this one should work.
    Satellite P750-BT4G22 (PSAY3U-08703H)
    So go here.
    Hmm. Not many there. So let's go to the equivalent part-number family in Europe (PSAY3E).
    Get those here.
    Lots of ways to wiggle.

  • Etc-update for arch ?

    hi , i have a bad english , but i hope that you will understand me
    i don't undersand why it don't have an etc-update for arch, because if you don't see regularly your .pacnew file , you can't see new stuff like for the last initscripts with the @ for the daemons or for the /etc/group.
    So yesterday i wrote a litle script (i very beginner with bash ) wich try to do like the etc-update of gentoo :
    fichiers .pacsave
    1 ) ./fam/fam.conf.pacsave
    2 ) ./test.pacsave
    3 ) ./group.pacsave
    4 ) ./httpd/conf/httpd.conf.pacsave
    5 ) ./ap_manuf.pacsave
    6 ) ./kismet_ui.conf.pacsave
    7 ) ./conf.d/gpm.pacsave
    8 ) ./kismet.conf.pacsave
    9 ) ./gnokiirc.pacsave
    10 ) ./sensors.conf.pacsave
    11 ) ./hotplug/usb.usermap.pacsave
    12 ) ./hotplug/usb.distmap.pacsave
    13 ) ./hotplug/blacklist.pacsave
    14 ) ./hotplug/usb.handmap.pacsave
    15 ) ./client_manuf.pacsave
    16 ) ./kismet_drone.conf.pacsave
    fichiers .pacnew
    1 ) ./test.pacnew
    2 ) ./modprobe.conf.pacnew
    3 ) ./fstab.pacnew
    4 ) ./group.pacnew
    5 ) ./passwd.pacnew
    6 ) ./ld.so.conf.pacnew
    7 ) ./rc.local.pacnew
    8 ) ./modules.conf.pacnew
    9 ) ./rc.conf.pacnew
    ==> what de you want to do ?
    ==> -------------------------
    1) view_diff_pacnew 3) move_a_file_pacnew 5) delete_a_pacnew_file
    2) view_diff_pacsave 4) move_a_file_pacsave 6) delete_a_pacsave_file
    you can find it here :
    http://home.tele2.fr/geekitus/trouver
    it certainly possible to increase the speed and to add some new options , if anyone can continue this script and to "clean"  it ... (i have separate .pacnew and .pacsave to try to inscrease the speed )
    *arf, sorry i forget to translate to english some word in the script like "fichiers -> files"
    if anyone have suggestions or idea ... say it

    Nice!
    I have several times thought making such script. I haven't check my /etc for months not wanting to take the trouble manually going through the config files. With your script I don't mind keeping my system updated.
    I will download and let you know how it works.

  • Automatic update of RemoteApp and Desktop Connections does not work (while manual updates with "update now" is working)

    Hello,
    on several Windows 7 Clients the update/refresh of the RemoteApp and Desktop Connections stopped not working automatically. There is a Update failed error. When we do an "Update Now" manually, it gets synchronized without problems.
    I am asking me if there is an issue with a stored Password as we Need to Change the Passwords regularily. The error is occuring for Connections to all RDS Servers (we have severals).
    Does Windows store the user Password in the Task Scheduler? If yes, does the schedule Task Password Change automatically after the Domain Password Change?
    Or what else could be the issue? The RDS Server and the certificate (Name the same as the URL) seems to be fine as not all Clients have this issue.
    Thank you for your help

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    By default it will automatically update the RemoteApp and Desktop Connections but if in any particular case it’s not happening then for a try you can restart the server and check the result again.  In addition you can try running below command and check
    the result. 
    Start-Process rundll32 -ArgumentList "tsworkspace,TaskUpdateWorkspaces2
    More information:
    Powershell to update "RemoteApp and Desktop Connections"
    If a task is registered using the Administrators group for the security context of the task, then you must also make sure the Run with highest privileges check box is checked if you want to run the task. Please check “Task
    Security Context” for more details.
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks,

  • Hi - I am looking for the Adobe Illustrator 2014 1.2 (or .0.2) bugfix update for Mac - and it is not visible in the Adobe Creative Cloud Packager (Mac version). The only update visible is Illustrator CC 2014.1  - which is what introduced the bugs.

    Hi
    I have discovered that my question above is a non-question. A user triggered by looking at the below article about Illustrator 2014 cc 17.0.2
    http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/release-note/illustrator-17-0-2-release-notes.html 
    He had recently upgraded from wht we now know is 18.0 to 18.1 which is the latest version. He read the above artic
    le and supposed that it was a bug fix release for his version - because the v17 ov18 number is not often displayed. It is usually just 2014 CC.
    I have asked him to post a bug report about Adobe Illustrator CC 2014.1

  • I just ran a software update for Java and MacBook Pro SMC, now my Mini Display Port to HDMI TV is not working. The TV is flickering. The Mac Display is fine.

    I was just watching / streaming TV off Safari on my actual TV.
    I'm using a Mini-Display Port to HDMI cable for the connection to the external display.
    Software update popped-up and said there was an update for Java and for SMC.
    I ran the update and upon the computer restarting, my external display (my TV) is no longer working. It is now flickering.
    It won't work in Mirroring or set up as an extended display.
    I've reset SMC / PRAM / Safe Mode / Even restored from a Time Machine backup (From before the updates were done).
    What could it be?!

    I keep saying this over and over, in the hope that people who do a search will find it.  Apple cannot possibly test for or be reponsible for the bazillion combinations of adapter, cables, and TV's out there.  The only monitors that are 100% guaranteed to work with the MacBook Pro are the Cinema Displays and Thunderbolt Displays, because, they're made by Apple.  They're expensive, but they work perfectly.
    My guess is that you bought a cheap MDP to HDMI cable, or have a defective one.  From my reading of these boards over the past few months, cheap cables have a high failure rate.  And the regular priced ones have only a slightly less of one.  Try a new one.  Make sure you do not damage the Thunderbolt port.

  • I have an iPad 1 and after I got the latest update for keynote and Now  it crashes every time I try to open it

    I have an iPad 1 and after I got the latest update for keynote and Now  it crashes every time I try to open it

    Do you have iOS 5.1.1 on your original iPad? If not update the iOS.
    You might also try quitting the app and then reset the pad.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Still no joy? Delete the Keynote app, reset the iPad and then reinstall Keynote. You will not have to pay for downloading it again.

  • I accepted/installed an update for iMovie and it turns out that this version is not compatible with my graphics card. So now I can no longer open or use iMovie.  Any ideas on how to get around this - how to revert to the previous version.

    I accepted/installed an update for iMovie and it turns out that this version is not compatible with my graphics card. So now I can no longer open or use iMovie.  Any ideas on how to get around this - how to revert to the previous version??

    Look in your Applications folder.  If your system behaved as expected, you should have an iMovie 9.0 folder in your Applications folder.  Apple moved the old version there as even they suspected the new versions was a train wreck.

  • I accepted a recent update for iTunes and now my version of Spin Doctor can't communicate with it any more. I don't think I can upgrade the Spin Doctor without buying a new program.  Is there a way to undo the last iTunes update?

    I accepted a recent update for iTunes and now my version of Spin Doctor can't communicate with iTunes, specifically, I can't get music files to go over to iTunes.  Spin Doctor gives me a message indicating that iTunes isn't working properly.
    I am using iTunes 9.1.1(12) and Spin Doctor 3.1.1.304t.  I have investigated upgrading the Spin Doctor but I think too much time has passed and the version available are too far advanced. 
    Any ideas?  Can I undo the iTunes upgrade?  Is there a website that I can go to to get the upgrade for my Spin Doctor?
    Thanks.

    If your iMac is an Intel CPU model, you can upgrade the OS to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    Then use software update to update 10.6 Snow Leopard to OS X 10,6.8.
    Then you can run the latest iTunes to sync your iPad running iOS 6
    You can purchase OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard by calling Apple at 1-800-MYAPPLE. Ask for retail software sales and purchase a copy of 10.6 for $19.99 plus shipping.

    Hi...
    Delete both apps using this utility >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    That will delete the apps and all associated files.
    Then re download the apps. That will download the most recent version updates included.
    How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
