New look for Arch website?

Just noticed the Arch site has a new look, and the title graphic is now a link
Nice work! Still nice and clean, just like Arch.
My only (admittedly small) gripe is that it looks quite blue on my monitor here at work.
I think I prefer the #f9f9f9 background of the forums to the new #eeeeff, but otherwise -- LOVE IT!

Is there a reason package search box is so big? Header needs same padding as body on L and R, logo too small, looks like a wiki page.
Meh old one was perfect IMO
While I agree the old one was fine; MANY MANY people just couldn't/wouldn't see it. You could direct them to the main page and say search for a package there and WAYYYY to many ppl would come back and say "I can't find it"
Just my guess as to the reason for different size/bg color of the search box

You may have installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
          Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "VSearch" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
From the Safari menu bar, select
          Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot" or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

Possible new section for the website.

At the top right of the Arch website, you have the sevral tabs, e.g. "home", "forums", "wiki" etc. I personally think that a clincher for allot of brand new linux users is a "media" section.
When i first started using Linux, I used to browse round sevral diffrent sites for diffrent distro's and check out their screenshots, of course now ~3 years down the pipeline I know this means nothing, but for new users its a nice thing to see.
Last friday whilst I was at college, I was trying to "convert" one of my friends to Linux, explaining all the advantages of a package manager and a customisable init system, when all he cared about was distro screenshots, when he found none on the main page of the arch site, he quickly moved on to Fedora/PCLinuxOS etc.
The addition of an extra media section, listing community and stock backgrounds/screenshots I think would be a great addition to help attract some more attention to the site.
I think there was a screenshot section like 1.5 years ago (I saw a fluxbox screenshot I really liked ), but im not sure where thats gone, think it was art.archlinux.org, but that has since died.
A range of screenshots would demonstrate Arch's flexibility and userbase, aswell as community and offical wallpapers.
Just my $0.02, what you reckon?

I see excatly where you are coming from, but Im talking about drawing more attention to arch, mainly through the people who troll distrowatch/linux sites all day, when new users are doing resarch they look at pcitures and what is possible not features, so im simply suggesting a page that shows what is possible with arch linux. Maybe a few diffrent images, updated each month from sevral shots from the Screenshot thread (chosen by whoever updates the site).
I've been thinking about like minded thoughts lately, and I think this is a good place to let them go.
1st. I understand the so called need for screenshots.
2nd. I understand it's not really arch, when were talking about screenshots.
What I actually was _just_ thinking about, say 30 minutes ago, were the wiki pages and the step by step tutorials the wiki provides. Now wouldn't it be nice to have a cool looking desktop screenshot and then have a wiki to walk you through the installation of all the cool stuff you'd need for such a thing? I think, that would not only be a learning experience with pacman, but also a true guided tour for someone "from the ground up" with linux. A learning experience with the basics of what happens when you boot up the machine and end up in that vc/1 wondering "Whattaaa???".. and then beyond 'till one finds him/herself staring at the desktop _picture_ s/he saw a couple days back..
Aghh.. I hate when this happens, my fingers are not keeping up with my head!!
Now this would (in my head atleast) mean a few basic "arch setups" (one "arch setup" per each of the most used dm's, kde, gnome, xfce?) which would have an "official" screenshots in arch's site, and if someone would like one of them pictures, there'd be a tutorial how to achieve it. And once these so called official screenshots had been introduced, it'd mean basically almost any of us with the same dm could help in a way or another the new archer to achieve her/his goal, (..I think xorg.conf would propably be the first squared tire) and then the fresh archer could _instantly_ help the next one with like minded problems.
I can of course speak for myself only, but the easiest way for me to learn is by doing things. This is one of the main reasons I'm still sticking with arch, I love it when you have to add stuff manually to a file to make things happen automatically from now on. Not just ..install ..and ....done ...and.. wtf?! why am I running out of memory ?!..
I got fed up tweaking msconfig and the registry after every install I made, so I jumped

Hi,
Try the following
First of all, see if you can uninstall your current version of HP Support Assistant by using the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the following link - this is particularly useful in correcting issues that may prevent reinstallation on machines running a 64bit OS.
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
If this completes, restart the PC.
Next download and install the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page.
http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-support-assistant.html
After the installation, restart the PC again.

Hi there.
My question concerns (new look)
http://www.sincro.co.za/new-test.php
and
http://www.sincro.co.za
I have changed the background from white to gray and also
changed the
colour of the text.
My wife says the new look is very dull. Ignore the menu and
other graphics,
but just teel me what you think about the general look &
feel. You are
welcome to make suggestions.

Hello there,
Now, I know it's not always easy accepting peoples feedback
but the thing you must remember is that there must be a reason for
saying it - it's also a lot to personal preference.
Personaly, I wouldn't use the grey, stick with bold colors,
for example, black or white. The menu doesn't really go with any
other colors on the page - try to stick with different shades of
the same color or perhaps similar colors. One thing which I really
am not very convinced with is the gradients in the menu (when
open), they make it look very amaturish. Also, try to combine the
three images at the top of the page.
I'd be more than willing to help you in whatever way (graphic
editing, etc).
All the best,
Kristopher (UK).

New Look For the HP Support Forum!

On December 1st, we will launch a new layout for the community. The new layout will not change the underlying functionality of the community. All of the boards and features that you use will remain unchanged. The new layout was specifically created to incorporate community feedback about the navigation and display.
Here are some of the highlights:
The community pages are less complex and easier to navigate
Buttons are now easier to find because they are brightly colored.
A new modular approach gives us greater freedom to launch improvements more quickly.
Here’s a sneak peek at some of the updated community pages.
New, expandable category menus reduce home page clutter and give us more room to add information to assist and showcase the members of the HP Consumer Support community:
The Best of the Community blog is now located in an expandable menu the top of every community page:
Here is an FAQ thread that will guide you through many actions that have been slightly tweaked; processes like editing your user information and uploading images has been simplified.
There will also be a Temporary Feedback board created for you to post feedback about the layout. The layout change is the first step in an ongoing process to improve the community. We hope you enjoy the new layout and encourage your feedback.

[Solved] Looking for arch's original man page color codes

Hey everyone. I'm new to arch, and enjoying having everything begin to work out for me. One thing I was wondering though is what the color codes are that the man pages use before X is loaded or anything similar.
Per the archwiki, I'm using the following to provide myself with colored man pages in urxvt:
From .Xresources:
! colored man pages on rxvt-unicode-256color
URxvt.colorIT: #87af5f
URxvt.colorBD: #d7d7d7
URxvt.colorUL: #87afd7
This works, but it's not the same colorscheme as what arch starts out with initially. Anyone know what that colorscheme is? Or where I could look to find it?

Here's the section in the Wiki I was referring to:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ma … vt-unicode
karol wrote:Are you talking about using man pages before installing Arch or after installing but in the tty? Do you want to get the same colors in X?
(I think) I was talking about the colors that the man pages are in the TTY. Specifically, my processes is:
Boot up arch
Login (X yet not started)
Look at a man page - like the colors
Startx - boot to window manager (i3)
Look at a man page - want to change the colors
That said, I liked the colors the man pages had before installing Arch quite a bit, and wouldn't object to learning what those are.
ayekat wrote:Here you are changing how urxvt displays characters that are marked as underline, italic or bold; in particular you are changing their colours.
The thing is, it won't only affect man pages viewed in urxvt, but everything.
Makes sense
ayekat wrote:As for changing the colour scheme of the manpage, you'll probably want to do it more properly, using the LESS_TERMCAP environment variables.
I tried copying your format to my .bashrc and it worked great! So that's a win. Now I just need to figure out what the '\e[#;#;#m' numbers mean. I think I can probably handle that one on my own though. I found a resource here at:
http://misc.flogisoft.com/bash/tip_colo … ng#colors2
And it looks like it covers what I need to know.
Thanks for your help!
And honestly, at this point I think I can figure out what colorscheme I like given the info at hand. So I think we can call this one taken care of.
If it interests anyone, I found a .sh script at the above link to display all 256 colors, then modified it to show the colors bolded, italicized etc. Here's the script:

for coltype in {0..8} ; do # Bold, Italic etc.
for fgbg in 38 48 ; do #Foreground/Background
for color in {0..256} ; do #Colors
#Display the color
echo -en "\e[(0${coltype});(${fgbg};5;${color}m ${color}\t\e[0m"
#Display 10 colors per lines

Firefox will not open a new window for a website when it is supposed to and then will not close properly. I have un-installed and re-installed and problem persists, why? How is it solved?

When I go on to some websites and click on certain things it wants to open a new window to display the information etc.
I.E. On an agency job search site I click to do a detailed job search which should open in a new window, but this will not happen now on my Firefox.
Firefox was working perfectly ok on Saturday 11th September but for some unknown reason has acted up since Sunday.
There have been no Windows updates which could effect this and the laptop is otherwise working perfectly ok.
Nothing has changed from Saturday Night to Sunday Night that I can see.
I have even tried to do a system restore to solve the problem but with no success.

I also have this problem. I cannot open links from a discussion board I frequent nor can I open links from my email. Also after opening my email, I cannot go to any other sites except my home page. I can then go no where else.
When I close Firefox and try to reopen it, it does nothing! I have to bring up the Task Manager and end the Firefox process before I can get back in.
To the best of my knowledge, this problem started with the new update to Ver. 3.6.9. I am running Windows XP Media Center 2005

New Look for Trophy Case

Nike has updated the Trophy Case and added new features. Below it a link to the image.

Windows XP Pro

You appear to be one of the few lucky one then. I am part of a Nike running forum where you can challenge other nike+ users and a large majority of the members on the forum have had issues with the site.
I'd rather the site work than look aesthetically appealing. In my opinion Nike has bigger fish to fry. If the site has glitches then fix them first.
Just because it is working for you right now doesn't mean it will later. Some have had no problems the first week only to suffer some of the same issues many others are facing the following week.

A couple questions...
Hac, can you look at my photo page and see where I screwed up my Couloir slideshow? It isn't working and I can't figure out why... I did have some publish errors while I was updating so that might be the reason, maybe something is missing from the folder or something.

Suzanne - I am having some weirdness with rounded vs rounded shapes. I copied and pasted some shapes, then changed the image inside the placeholder thingy, and some have changed to square corners instead of rounded corners. "Copy graphic style" doesn't help... just wondered if you had any thoughts...
