Looking for addition articles for the Arch Linux Press Review wikipage

Good day all,
I recently updated the Arch Linux Press Review wikipage, found here:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arc … ess_Review
If you know of any additional reviews or articles about Arch Linux, please edit the wiki page or post the info as a reply.
Any contributions for non-English language articles, or corrections in that area, would be especially appreciated.
Thank you,
Luke Seubert

We have a collection of German reports over here:
http://wiki.archlinux.de/title/Arch_in_den_Medien
Thanks tlaloc! I transferred that list of articles over to the Arch Press Review wikipage under the German Language section, and included a link back to the German original. I also fixed a tiny spelling error in the German page. I also doublechecked all the links to make sure they are live. As the French would day, "J'encule les moustiques"

  • Web based IRC for the Arch Linux channel

    Would it be possible for someone to set up the Arch linux IRC channel to be viewable on a Firefox webpage in the same way the Frugalware guys do?
    http://frugalware.org/irc.php
    It could be really useful to those not familiar with IRC.  And it doesn't look that hard to do
    A link could then be put on the home page to get there quickly.

    CGI:IRC is really practical, if you are on-the-road (= not on your machine) but want to inform some people over chat on something important
    i had it running in an earlier version on my old machine to chat with my family when on holidays ... but the installation was pain ... however, i see that this piece of code evolved much and looks really great now
    i don't decide for archlinux.org but you have my vote ;-)

  • Additional article for free goods-  Exclusive Bonus buy

    Dear All,
    Additional article for free goods in bonus buy
    In exclusive free goods, a material different from the orignal material can be specified as the free goods.
    Example: A customer who buys 3 pieces of Trouser's, gets 2 pieces of shirt free.
    So my question is , how can i add 2 pieces of shirt free if it has different variant (ex: i want to enter Red colour  & Green colour article ) in bonus buy, As in Bonus buy we only can enter one line item.
    Please help....
    Regards
    Saurabh

    in VBG1
    1. enter the name of the Article grouping, e.g. Shirt1
    2. at tab Article, enter article number(s) and quantity. in your case, enter the variants of the generic article (one for red shirt, one for green shirt, or whatever). enter quantity 1 for both variants.
    3. save
    when creating the bonus buy,
    1. select radio button Article Grouping
    2. enter the article Grouping you just created in "Article Grouping" <--- this is the bonus articles, not the preriquisite
    please notice that the "FreeGoods" is 1 - inclusive; however, it doesn't matter here.
    this is probably different from what you normally do when creating a normal free goods condition in SD. since the prerequisite article is already maintained in the area below. that means the article grouping you just maintained in step 2 is the bonus. as a result, the 2 articles in the article group are bonus articles.

    My sympathy, but, this is what you agreed to when you chose to use a free system: (From terms of service agreement, iCloud)
    APPLE DOES NOT GUARANTEE, REPRESENT, OR WARRANT THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, AND YOU AGREE THAT FROM TIME TO TIME APPLE MAY REMOVE THE SERVICE FOR INDEFINITE PERIODS OF TIME, OR CANCEL THE SERVICE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

  • I have created a newsletter in indesign cs4 how can I set zooms for each article for the user

    I have created a e-newsletter in Indesign. I have successfuly saved it as a SWF then as a PDF from acrobat.
    The problem is that when the user zooms in the resolution is not good.
    How can I let the user zoom in to read each article. Would I create buttons with zoom settings for each article. If this is the case do I do it in Indesign or Flash and can I still save it as a PDF file and it will keep the interactivity?
    I would greatly appreciate any help with this issue. It is driving me mad trying to get the information I need.
    Thank you

  • The Arch Linux Folding@Home team breaks 3 million points

    The Arch Linux Folding@Home team breaks 3 million points and is ranked 318 out of 81,260 teams.
    http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/ … s=&t=45032
    Not bad for a team that averages between 20 and 25 active folders!
    Thanks and Congrats to everyone who has folded for Arch.

    Please post your results, I would be very interested in getting the SMP client setup.
    Also, a nice package wouldn't hurt
    In my case, I run all my folding computers at home, and it's just me and my wife.  So the computers are running in a trusted environment.  As such, I just manually start the client in a Gnome terminal window on desktop #4 and leave my computer logged in all the time.  When I need to log out of my Gnome session, reboot, or stop my computer, I get into Desktop #4 and enter Ctrl-C to stop the client.  This is the simplest way to run the client and works for me.  When you use the client like this, a package isn't necessary.
    Just download the Linux x86-64 only SMP client version 6.0 Beta 1 http://folding.stanford.edu/release/FAH … -Linux.tgz into a folder in your home directory.  Use the tar command to untar the file, and you end up with two files named "fah6" and "mpiexec".  This is the first Linux client that requires a passkey.  Go to http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/getpasskey.py to get a passkey E-mailed to you.  Once you get the passkey, get into your folding directory and as a user enter:
    $ ./fah6  -configonly  -smp
    Answer the questions to configure how your client will run.  If you have never run folding at home before, you need to choose a user name.  Go to http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/mai … =userstats and using the "is exactly" option or the "is like" option enter your chosen user name in the search box and see if someone else is already using that name.  Keep trying user names until you find one not in use.  Enter your user name.  The Arch Linux team number is 45032 so enter that for the team number.  Enter the passkey that Stanford E-mailed you.  I recommend the following for these questions:
    User name [Anonymous]? Your_user_name
    Team Number [0]? 45032
    Passkey []? XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
    Ask before fetching/sending work (no/yes) [no]? no
    Use proxy (yes/no) [no]? no
    Acceptable size of work assignment and work result packets (bigger units may have large memory demands)
    -- 'small' is <5MB, 'normal' is <10MB, and 'big' is >10MB (small/normal/big) [normal]? big
    Change advanced options (yes/no) [no]? yes
    Core Priority (idle/low) [idle]? idle
    Disable highly optimized assembly code (no/yes) [no]? no
    Interval, in minutes, between checkpoints (3-30) [15]? 15
    Memory, in MB, to indicate (1885 available) [1885]? 1885
    Set -advmethods flag always, requesting new advanced
    scientific cores and/or work units if available (no/yes) [no]? yes
    Ignore any deadline information (mainly useful if
    system clock frequently has errors) (no/yes) [no]? no
    Machine ID (1-16) [1]? 1
    That's it, you are now configured.  Now that it is configured, enter:
    $ ./fah6 -smp
    and you are off and running.  Just remember to use the -smp flag when starting the client, and remember to use Ctrl-C to stop it.
    dmartins wrote:I have noticed that the SMP client works much better on a linux dual core system than it does on a windows system with similar specs.
    I agree totally with that.
    Btw, Pudge: You seem to be way out in front of everyone else in points per day. I was wondering what machines you have churning away. Perhaps a PS3 in the mix? I have read they can pump out some serious GFLOPS.
    No, I don't have a PS3.  Here's what I have churning away.
    Four SMP clients on AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processors running Arch 64 bit.
    One SMP client on an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor running Windows XP
    Three regular clients (non SMP) on AMD Athlon XP single core processors running i686 Arch
    One regular client (non SMP) on an AMD Athlon XP single core processor running Windows XP
    The vast majority of my points come from the 5 SMP clients.  It's absolutely amazing how fast the SMP client can finish the work units!
    If you have a dual core processor, I highly recommend running a single SMP client as opposed to running two regular clients.
    EDIT:  I forgot to mention.  To run the Linux X86_64 SMP client Version 5 beta, you needed some 32 bit libraries loaded.  I just loaded all the 32 bit libraries listed in the installing Flash on Arch64 Wiki and it worked.  When I went to the Linux X86_64 SMP client Version 6 beta 1, I just left the 32 bit libraries in place as I am using them for nspluginwrapper anyway.  So, I have not tested whether the Linux X86_64 SMP client Version 6 beta 1 still needs the 32 bit libraries or not.

  • How do you exit the Arch Linux installer?

    How do you exit the Arch Linux installer? I decided to install windows before installing Arch Linux because I want to dual-boot/with those operating systems.
    What command should I type to exit & eject my Install CD?

    reset button?
    I think it depends on far into the process you are, if you are formatting the drive anew then it shouldn't matter much when, where, or how
    Best of Luck,

  • What source base the Arch Linux Xorg build from?

    I need a complete package of X windows system installed. No idea which directory the Arch Linux X11 install to.
    Only find  below with "find"
    /usr/share/X11
    /usr/lib/ghostscript/8.64/X11.so
    /usr/lib/X11
    /usr/include/X11
    /var/cache/man/X11R6
    /etc/X11
    So I try to get some souce by http://xorg.freedesktop.org/wiki/Releases/7.4
    I found its x server is only 1.5.1 and Arch Linux is 1.6.1(show when pacman -S xorg)
    I really confused.
    Actually what I need is pretty simple, need a xdm and xdm-configure to enable XDMCP so that I can remote connecct to X.
    (I tried KDE and GNOME, it doesn't work because X)
    Anybody can give me a clue?
    Thanks very much,
    Mike

  • Searching for a good book about [Arch Linux]

    Hello friends,
    I'm here stuck with Windows 8, making a couple of tests about installing Arch Linux in VMware Workstation, if it succeeds, I'll move to Arch completely. My question is: Is there a good book about Arch (installation, maintenance, best practices, security, and so on)? I tried "Arch Linux Environment set-up How-To", but unfortunately, it wasn't what I expected.
    I'm a little confused about UEFI + GRUB2 + GPT/MBR but I think I'll dominate it soon...
    My system:
    [PROCESSOR] >> Intel® Core™ i7-3840QM (8M Cache, up to 3.80 GHz)
    [GRAPHICS] >> Dual Nvidia GeForce GTX 680M GPU With 4GB GDDR5 Video Memory (SLi)
    [RAM] >> 16GB DDR3 SDRAM 1600MHz
    [SSD] >> OCZ Vertex 4 (256GB)
    [HDD] >> Seagate Momentus XT Hybrid (750GB)
    I wonder in how many seconds the system will boot up...

    @op  As others have mentioned, do not seek out knowledge from a book.  There has been quite a few shifts in Archlinux, specifically to uefi and systemd.  There are a few starters for your concern.
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Un … _Interface
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/UEFI_Bootloaders
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners'_Guide/Installation
    Other then that, there is the forums and a quick search will land you on a goldmine of knowledge.  Great idea to start it up in a vmware, although it will not require the uefi boot, but it will still get you a bit more familiar with the install process and iron out some basic questions.  Good luck!

  • HT4623 I couldn't download the new software to my ipad or iphone because not enough storage so I paid the $20 for additional storage.  The purchase went thru and both phone and ipad are showing 15 GB of storage but I am still getting the message

    I couldn't download the new software onto my iPad or iphone because I didn't have enough storage.  I paid the $20 for additional storage.  Both devices are showing 15 GB of storage but both are still saying that I don't have enough storage available for the new download (3.3 GB req'd)  What else can I do?

    Delete some apps or stuff off your devices. The 'not enough storage' doesn't refer to iCloud space but space on your device.
    If you have a bunch of downloaded music from iTunes, delete it to make room, you can always redownload it after the update. If you have movies, I'd go for them first since video takes up tons more room than audio (delete less movies is the same space as lots of music)
    If you have apps you don't use, you can delete those, as long as you don't mind losing any data associated with them.

  • [SOLVED] The Arch Linux Handbook/Wiki

    Hello, everyone.
    I am new to Arch Linux; to be honest, I have not installed it yet, but I intend to do so very soon.
    I am a partially blind user, and I have used Ubuntu for nearly the past five years. I want to learn more about Linux, and I want to replace my Ubuntu installation with Arch Linux. I have been reading a lot about Arch over the past few weeks, and I just really love the whole philosophy behind it.
    I have a question, however, concerning the arch Beginners' Guide/ArchWiki. I have found this documentation to be VERY helpful, but my good eye (I have vision in only one eye, and it is a bit limited) cannot stand up to heavy reading as it used to be able to. I have been searching online to see if either a text document or a PDF document exists which contains all of the information which is in the Beginners' Guide. So far, I have not found any results. I am sorry, though, as my search engine skills are not too good (I am learning). The reason I ask this is because I have a portable device which has a built-in text-to-speech engine which is capable of reading text files aloud to me. If I could obtain this information in text format, or in PDF format (as I could use the pdftotext command to generate a text copy), it would make things a lot more streamlined for me.
    Is there something like this in existence?
    I appreciate any help which you can provide. As I stated earlier, please forgive me if something like this does exist and I missed it while searching.
    Please take care, and have a great evening.

    You want just the Beginners' Guide? Here is it in a ready to print format: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?ti … ntable=yes
    It's html, so converting it to txt of pdf shouldn't be much of a problem.
    There's also https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ar … _the_blind but I'm not sure if you find it helpful.
    Another way of accessing the wiki: http://www.archlinux.org/packages/commu … wiki-lite/

  • Finding the Arch Linux installation guide...

    ...is not the most obvious thing. Couldn't/shouldn't there be a link on the main web page to the Arch Installation Guide, or at least to the docs page?
    I've just tried Arch (0.7.2) for the first time, and am finding my way with it quite well so far - but just found it a little irritating to have to hunt around the web site for the installation guide from a 2nd machine (where it wasn't bookmarked yet) while I was installing Arch on another.

    I'm not sure what you mean. The Installation Guide is two clicks away from http://www.archlinux.org/
    http://www.archlinux.org/ -> "Documentation English" -> "Installation & First Steps"
    Ok, now that I made a fuss about this, it's time to admit that I just didn't see that Documentation section on the home page - thanks for pointing it out - time for some sleep I guess :-)
