How can I find packages using pacman?

Hi--
I browsed through pacman HOWTOs and doc and I still don't know how I can find available packages on all the ftp sites in my pacman.conf file.
For example, I want to install Gnome. When I do :
pacman -Sy gnome,
it doesn't work. Is it because I should do something like :
pacman -Sy Gnome, or
pacman -Sy Gn..
Do you see what I mean? HOW DO I FIND THE RIGHT SYNTHAX FOR A PACKAGE, OR THE EXISTING PACKAGES?
Is there some kind of a search tool for the ftp repositories? For example,
pacman <-search option>  Gno* (for all packages beginning with Gno)
Thanks

In general you need to know name of the package(s). In the case of Gnome, Xfce4 and KDE, simply call the name of group. What you did suppose to work.
[root@localhost ~]# pacman -Sy gnome

  • How can I find transactions using list of field names

    Hi,
    I do have some field names . I wanted to know how can I find the list of transactions that uses those fields in SAP?
    Regards,
    Aman

    Aman,
    It will be hard work, take the where-used list from SE11 for program, function groups and etc.
    Take the object name and go to SE80 and check in the tree if it has any transaction assigned.

  • How can i find and use a SAVE_MATERIAL Exit in MM02?

    Sorry i dont have any idea where to start ?

    Hi,
    question is what do you want to do in the user exit? Change or check data, issue other actions, etc.
    I start normally with SE81, search for the application component and select the entire subtree by pressing F9. Then go to Information System.
    In your case it is LO-MD-MM i suppose.
    In the repository browser you can find user exits and Badis in this area under enhancements.
    In your case BADI_MATERIAL_CHECK might be possible.
    Kind Regards

  • Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, my library is not listed or available. How can I find it? Can I use the time machine to restore it?

    Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, when I open the program, I am now asked what library i wish to use and none are listed. I can not find my photos. How can I find and restore my photos. Can I use the Time Machine to do this?

    You may be launching an older version of iPhoto from your Dock. Try to launch iPhoto directly from the Applications folder. Does that find a library to open?
    If not, search with Find Any File for traces of your iPhoto library, as described by Old Toad in this post:
    Re: My iPhoto Library disappeared...how do I get it back?
    Download and run Find Any File to search for a file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the file name. These are files common to all versions of  iPhoto libraries.
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there's a library hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.
    If that does not work, try to restore from your backup:
    The photos were stored on the iMac hard drive. I do have the Time machine with backup on my Airport WIFI.
    To restore from Time Machine, you need to open the folder, where your iPhoto library should be, before you enter Time Machine. Then go back in time along the timeline to the right of the TimeTunnel window.

  • How can i find start line of any functions or procedures stored in package body?

    hi
    how can i find start line of any functions or procedures stored in package body?
    is there any way to write a query from for example user_source?
    thanks

    how can i find start line of any functions or procedures stored in package body?
    Why? What will you do differently if a procedure starts on line 173 instead of line 254?
    Tell us what PROBLEM you are trying to solve so we can help you find the best way to solve it.
    If you use PL_SCOPE that info is available in the *_IDENTIFIERS views. See 'Using PL/Scope in the Advanced Dev Doc
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28424/adfns_plscope.htm
    Try this simple sample code. The query is modified from that doc sample:

  • Windows Internal Database on Windows Server 2012 - How can I find out what role or feature is using it?

    We have setup many roles and features and apparently one of them is using the Windows Internal Database (WID). We have had some events logged for WID and need to troubleshoot them. But we are not sure which role/feature is using it. How can I find
    this out?

    Hi,
    Several components of Windows Server 2008 and 2012 use Windows Internal Database for their data storage: Active Directory Rights Management Services, Windows System Resource Manager, UDDI Services, Active Directory Federation Services 2.0, IPAM and Windows
    SharePoint Services.
    Which role did you setup or what is the error message did you received?
    Regards.

  • How can I find what apple ID I used to register my iMac when I first booted up? I am being told that by using this ID I will be able to go on to the App store and down load iPhoto at no cost. Is this true? My iMac does not have iPhoto resident on it now

    How can I find what apple ID I used to register my iMac when I first booted up? I am being told that by using this ID I will be able to go on to the App store and down load iPhoto at no cost. Is this true? My iMac does not have iPhoto resident on it now and I only purchased my new iMac in December 2012
    Thanks....

    Launch Keychain Access and click on Login in the left hand pane and then on Passwords.  Next do search for Apple in the search field at the top and click on Apple ID Authenicication in the list that comes up.  That will give you the ID no. and password.

  • How can I find out the screen size of the users moniter using the Acrobat SDK?

    How can I find out the screen size of the users moniter using the Acrobat SDK? I need to know how much sreen real estate that is available on the users moniter. Is there some call that I can make from the SDK to discover the maximun X and Y coordinates?
    Thanks,
    Gregory

    Currently, I am testing on multiple moniters and it is defaulting to the moniter designated as the #1 moniter. For our purposes, this is acceptable. Once the two documents have loaded, the user can move and re-size at will.

  • How can I find what scom group a specific server belongs to using powershell?

    Environment:  SCOM 2007 r2
    Server in question:  Running Windows 2003 Std. (yes I know this sounds crazy)
    Why do I need this:  I noticed at the console level we have had server unexpected shutdown events which are not generating email notifications. 
    Source shows: Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition
    Alert Rule:  Windows Shutdown Unexpectedly
    From what I see these are all windows 2003 server Std edition systems.  I did a track and trace using our exchange tracking system which confirmed the alerts were not being emailed. Not sure if there is a better approach for this, but not being a sql
    expert (however I do have someone I can leverage) I am trying to see if I can somehow extract this information using powershell.
    Secondary general question:  How can I find out the current size of our scom 2007 database and the number of objkects\servers being monitored? This is prep work for a migration over to 2012.

    After burning a successful DVD in iDVD out of FCPX, how can I see the settings it used?
    So I finally burned a DVD out of a Apple Pro Res file into iDVD in PAL format. My question now is how can I find out what the exact burn properties were so that I can apply the same burn properties to a project in Compressor 4?
    Is it possible to see what iDVD did?

    I don't know any way you can interrogate iDVD to reveal settings to the extent that you can in a Compressor project. What you could do is open up the show's VOB in MPEG STreamclip, go to File and Reveal Stream Information; that will at least give you some rudimentary info like average bit rate. Perhaps someone, with more iDVD experience, can chime in here.
    The broader question is why use Compressor at all if your current workflow is doing the job to your satisfaction?
    The value of Compressor is that it gives you control over the many parameters that affect size quality.  and playability. The Compressor presets can give you a starting point for DVD delivery, Web, etc. From those presets, people typically experiment by adjusting the parameters until they get the desired results for their specific show. It's a little bit science and a little bit art. After experimenting, you may be able to get slightly better quality for the project you've successfully burned in iDVD by using Compressor and something likeToast…or maybe not.
    Good luck.

  • I have my personal music (not purchased from Itunes) stored in two locations, on my PC and on an external HD. How can I find out which directory itunes uses to access this music? I am using Itunes version 11.4.0.18. Thanks

    Many thanks JEM24 for your help.  Ive just spent the best part of six hundred pounds on a new Sony Rx100m2 compact camera, so I have no interest in the Ipods camera at all really. I doubt Ill be watching many videos on it as Im very lucky in that I have a good Android tablet. Its more as a stock music player that Ill be buying the Ipod for, if indeed I do end up buying one. I dont like the idea of paying the exorbitant amount added for more memory space that Apple along with most other companies charge. In fact I read an article on this very subject just yesterday in the tech section of Flipboard. It stated in the article that in the case of the Iphone  the actual cost of each additional  gigabyte of storage  to Apple et al is something in the order of 60p.. This is certainly not reflected in the price us the customer has to pay at the till.. Its for this reason primarily that Apple in particular, because their products do not allow adding expandable memory of your own in the form of cheap to buy cards, that nobody in their right mind buys the 64gig etc Iphones..I am aware that we are discussing my potential purchase of an Ipod Touch here but you see my point. Many thanks again though for helping me.
