FVWM wiki article

Hi there,
I saw in the in the wiki Beginners Guide, that there was several lines about fvwm, but nowhere else. So I thought it would be nice to create a good wiki article about it. Actually, I have started it - FVWM.
Feel free to edit and express your opinion about it. It would be nice to have a good help for newbies. And yes, I know, that man pages are very good and will answer most of the questions (if not all). But still, the information ammount is too vast for the mind of newbie.

I don't think so -- it's completely peripheral to FVWM per se.
I don't see the harm in it. He said that the man pages are vast etc, and I was thinking about information that wouldn't be in the man pages, add on to the fact that it is fairly Arch-specific (or so I thought), so it should deserve a place in the Arch wiki.
The wiki page also shows how to install the patched version, it isn't completely ignoring it. I'm sure a lot of people would see that and wonder what the patched version has to offer.

Stop looking on the wayback machine.

Well, I have no clue where the updated patch documentation is (does it exist?). I'm talking about this: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7195
and in the description/comments it shows those sites. Not sure if this is the same as the Genpoo (Gentoo?) ebuild you are talking about.

Cannot Create New Wiki Articles

For some reason, we are no longer able to create or edit new wiki articles on our server. We can create and edit blogs.
The server currently is the Directory Master, we've tried stopping and restarting web service, rebooting the machine, etc.
It is recognizing the directory user group, since only employees in the group (not customers) are allowed to view the articles on the site.
The error received when attempting to create a new article is:
Error from server: Problem creating the page: <type 'exceptions.OSError'> (13)

Apple helped out on this one.!
So, we were not able to create new entries in old (existing) groups... Talking with support we were able to create a new group, and that new group could create new entries.
SO it turns out to be a permission error. Using Sever Admin I copied the permissions from the new group and replicated those permissions down through all the other groups and lo and behold everything worked.
hope that anyone who runs into this <exceptions.OSError> 13 with server 10.6 finds this helpful

Trying to submit a wiki article but getting an error

I have tried two times today to submit a wiki article but each time I see the following message:
Sorry, there was a problem with your last request!
Is the site currently down for maintenance? As well, how will I know if my article is being saved or not?
Any help you can provide is appreciated.
Ken

With that error message I don't think your article got saved. Today's activity seems normal for a Sunday, so there doesn't seem to be an outage. But sometimes our work is not saved and we need to save again. You should try again.
I cannot find any articles by you today. Usually when you save you can see the activity in two places. First, it should show on the main Wiki page that lists recent activity. Second, it should show in your profile on the activity tab. It is possible for
the article to get saved and not show up in these two places, but your error message indicates it did not get saved.
When I publish new articles I include my own personal tag, so I can quickly find my articles. You can do a tag search for all articles with any given tag. That is the most reliable way to be tell if the article exists. The tag I use is "rlmueller".
On the main Wiki page I add to the url to do a tag search, so the url becomes as follows:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/tags/rlmueller/default.aspx
This finds all articles with my tag. You can do similar, just substitute your own unique tag.

Details of all Technet Wiki Article must be displayed

Hello.
For a user who has created multiple Technet Wiki articles and just opens one of his created Technet Wiki articles ,his other created articles are not listed anywhere on the page.IMO ,like in Technet Gallery,creators all article must be listed
somewhere on the page.It would allow creator as well as person looking for help to see other articles .
Does this idea sounds logical ? Can we have this
Please mark this reply as the answer or vote as helpful, as appropriate, to make it useful for other readers

Add my name to tag... OK, that is good idea... strange solution, but might help the author (and other as well) to find his own articles. But this can't be THE solution but a secondary (or temporary) solution. It is
much simpler to add a searching page with advance options like search all the article's of user XXX... an this should not come instead of adding the list in the user profile.

Users steal ownership of Wiki Articles in Profile Activity -- Is this bug still happening?

Is anyone seeing this Wiki/Profile bug still happening (not just the results of how it happened last year):
Users steal ownership of Wiki Articles in Profile Activity
This is where the wrong person gets credit for the article (they were an editor but not the author) in the Profile Activity tab and thus, they get the Author points.
Still happening?
Meaning that the bug starts happening this year (and not just the issues with it last year).
Thanks!

Create a wiki article about it!

You have a macbook pro too (as noted), does this happen with yours? If apple changed things and it's normal, like as you stated that it was lite so you'd know you're computer is 'on' but I'd like to know for sure if that's what it's supposed to be doing. (nip it in the bud if there's a problem)
I know it isn't sleeping (not pulsing) but since the light is on (steady), it is something I noticed right away. For example, right now as I type this, with the MBP on my desk w/ the cinema display plugged in (w/ a keyboard) and the lid is closed on the MBP, the light is ON right now. Not pulsing, but a steady light. Doesn't seem like it should be, to me. (at least in my view)
Thanks for your reply Josh.

About posting TechNet Wiki articles

Hello,
I already write some articles on my personal blogs (italian and english).
Is it needed that a TechNet Wiki article is original and it doesn't exist on another web site ?
Can I publish on TechNet Wiki an article I already published on my blogs ?
Thanks,
Paolo.
Paolo Patierno

Yes, you can post your own content! That's great! And if it's in any of the TechNet Guru categories, you can also enter those competitions and get more views on your articles!

Why recently created wiki articles are not showing in profile Statistics page?

Recently I have created a wiki.. altogether it should be 3 but under
profile Statistics page it shows as two.. it almost two weeks now..
Below are the wiki's
(si-LK)http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/19489.registry-import-not-all-data-was-successfully-written-to-the-registry-some-keys-are-open-by-the-system-or-other-process-or-you-have-insufficient-privileges-to-perform-this-operation-si-lk.aspx

(en-US)http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/20586.how-to-change-ipv4-dns-server-address-to-public-dns-in-windows.aspx

I think that if the activity has not shown up by now, that it will never show up, and your statistics will not be updated. I have had this happen to myself. When the Wiki is having performance problems, articles can be created or updated, but meta data
is not updated properly. Sometimes this can be fixed, sometimes not. This issue is of major concern, but there is no fix yet.

Update NTP (Network Time Protocol) wiki article?

I was trying to set up automatic clock synchronization, so I went here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … e_Protocol to see how I could do that: first thing it says to install ntp, and that's easy, but then the configuration section is very different from the default /etc/ntp.conf coming with the repository package (version 4.2.6.p2-1), so this is the first reason why I think the article should be updated.
After that I started KISS-wondering why I should use a memory/bandwidth/cpu-eating daemon if what I want is just synchronize my clock at boot time, nothing more; in fact, configuring ntp that way is useful only for a ntp server, but I'm pretty confident that the large majority of people visiting that page are just looking for a way to sync their clock, so I think that the NTP part of the page should be split in 2 or even better 3 sub sections: 1) ntp server configuration (with ntpd running); 2) simple ntp clock synchronization (with ntpd running); 3) ntp clock synchronization (at boot time or as a cron event) (without ntpd running).
Subsection 3) should explain how to configure ntp.conf (and maybe /etc/rc.local ? I'm still studying on this) just to be able to have this command
ntpd -qg
automatically executed at boot time: maybe appending it to /etc/rc.local (but I'm afraid it's slightly more complicated than that, I'm still studying on it); it could also be reminded that it's possible to run that command at predefined time intervals by creating a cron event.
Is somebody with more knowledge than me interested in helping?
(Excuse my approximate English...)

Ok, I finally managed to find the time to revise the ntp.conf section, this is my first attempt to it:
===/etc/ntp.conf===
The first thing you define in your ntp.conf is the servers your machine will synchronize to.
NTP servers are classified in a hierarchical system with many levels called "strata": the devices which are considered independent time sources are classified as "stratum 0" sources; the servers directly connected to stratum 0 devices are classified as "stratum 1" sources; servers connected to stratum 1 sources are then classified as "stratum 2" sources and so on. It has to be understood that a server's stratum cannot be taken as an indication of its accuracy or reliability.
Tipically, stratum 2 servers are used for general synchronization purposes: if you don't already know the servers you're going to connect to, you should use the pool.ntp.org servers (http://www.pool.ntp.org/ or http://support.ntp.org/bin/view/Servers/NTPPoolServers) and choose the server pool that is closest to your location.
The following lines are just an example:
server 0.it.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 1.it.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 2.it.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 3.it.pool.ntp.org iburst
The iburst option is recommended, and sends a burst of packets if it cannot obtain a connection with the first attempt. The "burst" option should never be used without explicit permission and will likely result in blacklisting.
If you're setting up a ntp server, you need to add localhost as a server, so that, in case it loses internet access, it won't stop serving time to the network; add localhost as a "stratum 10" server (using the "fudge" command) so that it will never be used unless internet access is lost:
server 127.127.1.0
fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10
The next thing you have to do is add the drift file (which keeps track of yours clocks time deviation) and optionally the log file location:
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift
logfile /var/log/ntp.log
Now all that's left to do is define the rules that will allow clients to connect to your service (localhost is considered a client too) using the "restrict" command; you should already have a line like this in your file:
restrict default nomodify nopeer
This restricts everyone from modifying anything and prevents everyone from querying your time server.
You can also add other options:
restrict default kod nomodify notrap nopeer noquery
In the past, "notrust" option was used too, but its function has changed to mean that authentication with a key is required.
Following this line, you need to tell ntpd what to allow through into your server; the following line is enough if you're not configuring a ntp server:
restrict 127.0.0.1
Otherwise you can add more clients like in this example:
restrict 1.2.3.4 nomodify
restrict 192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap
This tells ntpd that 1.2.3.4 and all IP addresses from the 192.168.0.0 range will be allowed to synchronize on this server, but they will not be allowed to modify anything. All other IP addresses in the world will still obey the default restrictions (the first line in the ntp.conf).
In the end, the complete file will look like this (almost all original comments have been stripped out for clarity):
# Name of the servers ntpd should sync with (these are for Italy as an example)
server 0.it.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 1.it.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 2.it.pool.ntp.org iburst
server 3.it.pool.ntp.org iburst
driftfile /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift
logfile /var/log/ntp.log
restrict default nomodify nopeer
restrict 127.0.0.1
For a more in-depth explanation of the file, especially if you want to configure your machine as a ntp server, the Gentoo Wiki has a more detailed description.
Lastly, never forget man pages:
$ man ntp.conf
is likely to answer most of your remaining doubts.

Please review wiki article "init and inittab"

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Init_and_inittab
diff against old version: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?ti … did=120785
Much of the knowledge was learned from this thread.
A lot of enhancements. To summary:
Changed the title from "inittab" to current one; created redirections from "init";
A detailed explanation on the mechanism of init and the entry format of inittab;
Reorganized the sections explaining inittab entries to agree with the order of default inittab of Arch;
A lot of language polishing;
TODOs:
Write an overview. Currently the overview is still split into two parts (beginning of article and the "overview" section). I'd like to use the summary templates, but I'm running out of time now. Also, I'm neither familiar with the syntax or good at writing a summary. Help is needed;
The language in some sections may still be bad, or even have been made worse, due to my English level. Need review of a fluent speaker.

Dell Inspiron 1525 wiki article

I've made an article to get Archlinux running on a Dell Inspiron 1525: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dell_Inspiron_1525
Any comments would be great, I think there is stuff missing but don't know what. :D

Hello.
I have low fps with games in 3D. I can play at good fps in the Ubuntu that I have in my other partition, so I tried to put my Arch's xorg.conf in Ubuntu, but Ubuntu still works even with that configuration.

PS: Kwin4 and Compiz works perfectecly and I have my direct rendering configured (or I think so, right now I don't know what to think).
PS2: Why the "hwd -s" of Dheart says that he uses Xorg and the one of Rainbyte says that he uses Xfree86? I wonder why because when I execute "hwd -s" in the Ubuntu system it says Xfree86, but Xorg in Arch.
Well. I'm hope that somebody understood my english and make a better article for the wiki.

Regarding the printer-friendly versions of wiki articles...

Hey, I just have a suggestion for the layout of the wiki. I don't see why the little translation/language box is needed for the printer-friendly versions of any of the articles. It's a minor complaint, really, but it gets on my nerves a little bit. I propose you get rid of it. (the categories at the bottom are also not very necessary for a printed article)
Anyways, like I said it's just a suggestion, do with it what you will.

is there a chance you could take a look at the css for printing and give me a patch? I agree with you about htem being unnecessary, but i'm not sure it's possible to get rid of the translation box because of the way it's set up. The categories are probably just a display:none somewhere.

Wiki article on kernel hardening and setcap framework

Hi guys,
I ran into the gdb ptrace problem detailed all over the web and in this Arch bug report. I noticed there were two solutions: one system-wide and one per application you'd want to give permissions to.
I would guess the latter (i.e. setcap) is the "better" solution, as it is more localized, but I can't find any documentation on what it actually does and how I can view my setcap'ed things. What I'm really saying is that setcap use is spread over the Wiki, but nowhere is really explained what it is, why it is necessary, and how one would generally use it. Could someone with the necessary knowledge perhaps write up a small wiki page about it so that this page can get linked to from various articles (nginx/gdb/...)?
I don't want to be presumptuous about asking for documentation, but I really believe clearing this out will help future generations.
Thanks!

A small intro is already in the wiki: Capabilities

install xf86-input-synaptics instead xf86-input-mouse it should solve the "no clicking"* problem when you start x
* you can move the mouse around but the right/left button doesn't work until you do as describe above

New Wiki article on flashing BIOS from Linux

I recently had to flash my BIOS on an old laptop which just couldn't run Windows. So I just added this article on the Wiki, hoping it would be useful to someone else as well

If you have any additions or if you know about other ways, please add them.
