Grub (os-prober) doesn't generate the right entries for Arch

I'm getting Arch installed (on a separate partition) from a system which has Manjaro on it already. [I had lots of trouble yesterday and finally just had Manjaro do a complete install, because I couldn't get the EFI boot to work, so that's why I'm started from that.]
Manjaro generates entries for itself which work, and it generates entries for Arch, but it fills in the UUID and hdX,gptX information for Arch wrong - it puts the same information in as for itself.
I've checked under Arch's own /boot/grub/grub.cfg and that file has the correct entries.
How do I get the os-prober to see these? (i'm running the grub-update while the Arch partition is mounted).

If I understand your post correctly, you are installing on a UEFI system. os-prober basically doesn't work on UEFI (i.e. it only works for BIOS systems).
Gummiboot is a better alternative, as it will automatically detect installed OSs via their .efi stubs.
Ah, I didn't know that (this is the first time I've done anything substantial in terms of config on an UEFI system).
Is Gummiboot fairly easy to set up? It'll find the other OSs .efi entries? I'm somewhat loath to fiddle with this as I ended up with an unbootable system yesterday (now Manjaro's installer has something in place which works (for itself), which is GRUB based).
Additional:
Right now Manjaro has got some sort of "legacy_boot" partition (256MiB) mounting at /boot, and the actual EFI partition (100MiB) mounting at /boot/efi. I understand that I should actually have the EFI partition mounting directly at /boot but am worried about a non-breaking way of trying to setup gummiboot.

Macbook doesn't have the right resolution for external monitor.

I have a Macbook Pro runing OS X 10.7.5 and have a HP w1907 LCD monitor. When I have the Macbook open, I can get the proper resoulution of 1440x900 on the LCD while the monitors are Mirrored. But when the macbook is closed, the options for the LCd monitor are replaced by VGA display. The VGA Display options do not have the 1440x900 resolution option.
What do I have to do to get my monitor's native resolution back while keeping the macbook closed.

Aha - got luck: In Preferences/DIsplays click in the window and press 'Option' - the 'Gather Windows' button changes to 'Detect Displays' and when clicked, discoverd the correct resolution.
That does it.

Is this the right product for me?

Hi All
Just considering Contribute and was wondering if this is the right product for my needs.
I've built a web site and need to add a retrofit CMS type function to some pages.
There's news, products and general page editing.
I can see News being straightforwards in Ct but not sure about the rest. It appears that an editor requires Ct whether they want to edit in a browser or not. Is this the case? Sort of defeats the purpose for browser editing doesn't it?
Any comments are much appreciated.
Thanks

ARD will not allow you print from your home system to your printers at work either. You could transfer the documents from your home system to your work system and then print, but you don't need ARD for that. File sharing, for transferring the documents, and the Screen Sharing built into Mac OS X 10.5 and 10.6 to take control of the work computer, would be all you need and wouldn't cost you anything additional.
If, however, you need the ability to "curtain" the screen at work, then you would need ARD. Another, somewhat less expensive, option would be Timbuktu.

Is Logic the right programme for me?

Hi.
Im seriously considering building my own home recording system. I just want to start simple with a programme and suitable microphones to capture voice, guitar and midi keyboard.
Just wanted some advice on Logic and if its the right programme for me? Would I get the hang of it easy and what microphone would you suggest?
I want to adapt my acoustic guitar playing and singing to an electronic set up which I hope to create with the recording program and use in a live setting. Would Logic be suitable for this also?
Sorry for all the question, im pretty new to the self recording process.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Marc.

Thanks for this. Very good advice. Should have mentioned that I have used Garage Band extensively for recording song ideas into the in built mic but nothing much more.
This doesn't count.
Seriously, FN's comment regarding Logic vs whatever being the least of your worries is exactly correct.
To get decent sound you are going to be looking at some hardware expenditure.
An "audio interface".
Your MBP's built-in audio will give you only fair sound and you will end up spending money on a mic/inst preamp that you can plug into the Mac's 3.5mm line-in.
You're better off purchasing an external audio interface, this will have mic/instrument inputs and can interface to the MBP via Firewire or USB. (Firewire is better imho)
Personally not fond of USB mics so I would recommend a standard condenser mic and cable. There are some decent models in the $100 range that sound good for both voice and acoustic guitar. The Audio-Technica AT2020 comes to mind.
There are a number of small inexpensive MIDI keyboard controllers that can do the job.
Point is, this hardware will work with any MIDI/Audio sequencer so before purchasing Logic I would take care of the hardware investment and learn the ropes using Garageband.
GB is very capable, it's built on a subset of Logic. Six months ago I used Garageband to cut a demo for an ad company, they liked it enough that all I needed to make were a few tweaks and add the voice over (all in Garageband 4.1.2) and they purchased it for both radio/TV broadcast.
A good thing to remember is more is not necessarily better, knowing how to use whatever you have will always produce better results. Good music, artistry..etc is seldom, if ever about the equipment/software.
Get the hardware stuff happening with GB, then make the jump.

Both power adapter I have are different (at the magnet end) from the one in link.
Earlier adapters have T shaped connectors, which Apple later changed to the L shape, presumably to make them more abuse-proof. Either one is fine and the one you are using will not damage your Mac.
Retina MBPs and new MBAs use a completely different MagSafe 2 connector which will not fit (without an adapter).

How can i find out which Macbook is the right one for me?

I am looking into buying anew laptop and I'm currently considering a macbook as oppose to a windows laptop. which one is the right one for me?
1. I will be using it for my work at college and university so it will need to have a reasonable amount of storage and have the correct programs.
2. I use the internet alot.
3. I have an ipod touch so i will need storage for my music.
4. It will need it to be quite quick.
5. It will need to support some software that i use on windows.
Also, do you think a macbook is what i need as oppose to windows. what are the pros and cons of the macbook

This is the most important question. I would check with your school. They may have a recommendation for what you need and the software you will need to use. They also may have a discount program for you to purchase your computer. If not Apple does have an education discount plan to give you a break.
5. it will need to support some software that I use on windows.
Hard to give an answer for this as we have no idea what your going to be using or what your school requires you to use. My sons college had specific programs he had to have.

First try reinstalling itunes.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for the link to download Acrobat 9 Standard? I found the link to download 9 Pro but not standard. Old computer crashed and new computer does not have a CDR/DVD rom drive.

Hi,
Standard or Pro would be licensed through your serial number, the download link and downloaded file would be the same for both of them.
Pro or Standard would be determined after you put in your serial number.
Download Acrobat products | 9, 8
Thank You

Help with choosing the right specifications for a Macbook Pro Retina?

Opinions needed....
So I'm new to Macs, but I know what I want to achieve and I feel this is the right route to choose. I'm looking at delving into the world of music production, using Logic pro 9 and garageband, but I also enjoy watching High definition Movies and televison so I know that the Retina display is definatley the right choice for me. However, I'm unsure on the amount of RAM & Which processer I should choose. I have read a fair bit on forums and online about the new retina macbooks being 'locked' from upgrading, so the 16GB of RAM is an immediate choice for logetivity.
The choice of processor is when I start to become clouded in my choice. As forementioned, I'm looking at running logic pro, as well as high def movies. There is also a possibilty at looking into photo and video editing, Whether that be in final cut pro or photoshop... But I want to leave my options open.
I think the choice of 16GB of RAM, 2.6Ghz processor, with a 256GB hard drive ( as i have 1.5TB external space) would be a good choice. Once I've added on applecare that comes out at around £2350, Which is a significant investment, but one that I think will help me immensely for the future. I am interested in other peoples opinions on my possible choice because, as I said before, I'm new to the world of Macs and making the right choice is essential. As a side note, the choice of upgrades also ensures a reasonable resale value, which is a bonus.

Why Can't VZ do the Right Thing For Once and Permit Network Extender Owners to Close their Networks?

Given the fact that the Network Extender can be set for managed access or open access, clearly it can technologically be configured so that a closed network could be set up so that ONLY those users that are included in the "priority list" could access the Network Extender.
If I had to guess, Verizon, prefers to benefit from your internet connection and your investment in a network extender by bolstering their network in poor reception areas for all of their customers in the vicinity on us Network Extender owners' backs rather than to do the right thing and permit a customer who has paid for the device as well as their internet access to close the network.
I find this sleazy and hope VZW will rethink its approach to this. We who subscribe to VZW for our cellular service pay the highest rates, on average, in the country for cell service. We have also paid hundreds of dollars for the Network Extender, and pay for the internet that is used to facilitate the phone calls made through the network extender.
Once it a while it would be nice if VZW did the right thing for its customers and not blatantly, at least, put their corporate greed about the needs of their customers.

I called Verizon tech support, and was informed that there is an option to close the Network Extender. This would allow only numbers on the white list to connect to the extender. Is the information I received incorrect? I spoke to them just the other day. Have you tried to configure the extender recently?
My post asking for clarification is here: https://community.verizonwireless.com/message/1002928#1002928
Thanks for any information you can provide.

Do i have the right equipment for CCNA-Wireless?

Hello community i am Adan Ramirez, an aspiring Cisco Tech, and I'm trying to get the right equipment for the ccna wireless.
Here is my shopping list:
1. 2 Cisco LWAP 1252
3. NME-WLC6-K9 module card
Here is what i already have at home:
1. 1841(2x) - iOS 12.4(24)
2. 2811(2x) - iOS 15.something something...
3. 3560 - iOS 15.something something
4. 2960 - iOS 15.something something
Problem: I don't know if the NME needs the latest iOS, the one i saw on eBay says it's version 4.2 something something. I don't have three thousand dollars to buy a brand new module with iOS 7.0 or $ 12,000 to buy a 5500 WLC. I'm a broke college student T_T, help!
and thanks!

Hi,
This is sufficient for your CCNA wireless studies. Probably I would add a VM which can run WCS.
If you really need a WLC, you can buy 4400 series controller (can run upto 7.0.x) for ~200-300 USD. This is the version tested in CCIEv2.0 lab exam as well.
This is the Cisco forum you should follow for this CCNA-Wireless studies
