[PPC] Trouble installing HAL and Xorg

Newbie to the "Arch" way of Linux, but not to Linux itself. I can compile from Source in my sleep. However, I'm very confused about what's going on.
Installed the core of Archlinux on a G4 PPC tower with the 2009 iso, and am now looking to finish installing everything to get to a GUI Desktop Environment.
Want to install xfrc4, but found that HAL and D Bus were not installed, so I ran this command:
pacman -S hal dbus
It pulled down both packages well enough. it installed dbus 100%, but apparently there is a problem with HAL. It's not only missing from /etc/rc.d/, it's never responded to "/etc/rc.d/hal start. I've added it to the DAEMONS section of rc.conf.
Not sure where HAL went or if it ever was there even as a downloaded package. At the point of HAL's install when a list of directories runs down the screen, each one listed itself as already existing. pacman -S hal added a whole list of packages to be installed with it.
Anyhow, I'm extremely new to the pacman system and really no idea even after reading the manpage what I might be doing wrong. Hope I've given enough information to help and haven't caused the level on confusion that I have about this.

will look up another mirror.

  • (Solved) Having trouble installing vlc and openoffice

    I am having trouble installing both VLC and Openoffice.
    VLC
    I tried typing in:
    yaourt -S vlc
    At first, it finds the package, and the first time I did it, downloaded quite a bit of stuff, and then it failed after installing a rather large package and then says :
    error: failed retreiving file 'vlc-0.9.9a-6-i686.pkg.tar.bz' from archlinux.unix.heads.org : Not Found
    Any idea what may be causing this?
    OpenOffice
    I tried typing in:
    yaourt -S openoffice
    Then it said it could not find openoffice in my /etc/customizepkg.d and then asks me to change my PKGBUILD and I had no idea what to edit in it.
    Then, it tried to install it,  and it tells me svn is not found in AUR.
    What does this mean and how can I get openoffice?

    You need to use the -y flag to update your local repository list.
    Ie pacman -Sy
    You can conveniently combine all of your tasks..
    pacman -Sy vlc openoffice-base
    Error retrieving a file means either
    A) The mirror you are using is updating itself and you were unlucky enough to sync right when it was doing so.. youll need to wait a little while and try -Sy again then..
    B) Related to A.. your database could be either older or newer than the mirror you are using. If you switched mirrors recently, this happens sometimes. Most mirrors update ~daily, but some update ~weekly. -Sy to sync.. you could try -Syy to force a full sync so that even lists of supposedly up-to-date repositories (core,extra,so forth) are synced (doing so is only good/useful if you have problems)..
    C) Your mirror is offline.. change it to another one in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
    D) Your internet is not running / your DNS is not working properly.. try to ping a site you know is online to be sure. Google is always a good choice. ping www.google.com. You can ctrl+c to end it if it responds as expected. Fix your internet (see the wiki) and domain name server (/etc/resolv.conf and your router) if you have problems.
    You may or may not also wish to pacman -Scc in order to clean out your cache of saved packages in case there is a download problem.
    Your post gives the impression you don't understand pacman vs yaourt.. apologies if i'm wrong, but just in case:
    Pacman is used for official binary repository files. Yaourt can do pacman's job in addition to its own with the same syntax (imo it does a pretty slow and lousy job of such though), but it's real original function is primarily to install 3rd party / community packages that the Arch devs either can't or won't maintain (and most often, have not "ok"ed them as safe to install). You should look at yaourt in the wiki.. when it asks you to change the pkgbuild I imagine you mean when it says 'what do you want to edit it with?'.. which you dont need to edit it at all. The reason it asks you is because yaourt can install stuff from AUR, which like I said is 3rd party / community stuff that can contain something malicious (AUR is open to submissions, unlike the official repositories) and you are highly advised to look it over for something fishy before compiling and installing. FYI -- believe me, you don't want to compile openoffice without reaaally good reason on a really fast machine. It hurts. Your machine will be as usable as a doorstop for a very long time while it's doing it's business. Just save your time and patience, install the compiled binary via pacman instead.
    Please use the wiki, forum search functions, and man pages. Most of the Arch community is friendly and knowledgeable, but people get (rightly) irked when their work maintaining the aforementioned to answer queries like this one are ignored.

  • [Solved] Trouble with virtualbox and xorg-server-1.13

    So I'm trying out Arch through VirtualBox. Everything has been great so far and I've installed dwm and even customized it a bit already. The problem is that I'm stuck in 1024x768... which is brutal on a 16:9 monitor. Ive installed the virtualbox guest additions through pacman and setup the modules in /etc/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf and now when I reboot into x it fails and im stuck in the normal tty console.
    Heres my xorg.conf.d config which is pretty basic
    Section "Monitor"
    Identifier "Monitor0"
    DisplaySize 409 251
    EndSection
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "Device0"
    Driver "vesa"
    EndSection
    Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Screen0"
    Device "Device0"
    Monitor "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth 16
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 24
    Modes "1024x768" "1440x900_75.00"
    EndSubSection
    EndSection
    My Xorg.log spits out this when I try to run X no screens found?
    Thanks for any help!

  • Having trouble installing software AND restarting from OSX Install disks

    This may be a previously answered problem, but I couldn't find it in the forum.
    My recently-purchased MacBook has iPhoto v. 2.x on it, but this is really old -- the current version is 6 or so.
    I thought a newer version might be on my Install disks, but I can't seem to get past the screen that tells me to restart in order to install System X. When I do click it, it restarts back to my login screen, and then I need to relaunch the OSX installer, and the loop starts over.
    The obvious solution is to restart from the Install disk, however, I cannot start up from that disk; I hold down C while restarting, but I get a flashing folder-with-a-question-mark in it. Note the grey install disk is 10.2.4 and my computer is running 10.4.11 with upgrades. Is this the issue?
    Besides hoping one of you can help me 1) start from my Install disk and 2) find and install iPhoto, perhaps someone knows which version of iPhoto I will have, if any, on this disk (CD vers 1.0, 2Z691-4306-A).
    Vielen Dank!
    -A-

    Your question was answered unless we didn't understand it correctly. You are trying to boot an Intel Mac with "Note the grey install disk is 10.2.4." 10.2.4 cannot boot any Intel Mac. BDAqua addressed that in his reply. You have not responded to either his or my original reply.
    You're original question was about iPhoto. I replied that you can reinstall all originally pre-bundled software for your computer by running the Install Pre-Bundled Software installer contained on your OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer. There's no need to boot from the installer disc in order to reinstall pre-bundled software.
    So, is there a part of your question that still needs addressing? Please let us know, and we will be glad to help if we can.

  • [SOLVED] Trouble installing Xmonad and Xmonad-contrib

    I am new to Arch Linux. After using awesome for a month I decided to shift to xmonad.I installed xmonad and xmonad-contrib from official arch repositories by using
    pacman -S xmonad xmonad-contrib
    and then installed GHC. I was able to start session using
    exec xmonad
    in my ~/.xsession file. I copied the default xmonad.hs template to my home.
    cp /usr/share/xmonad-0.11/man/xmonad.hs ~/.xmonad/xmonad.hs
    . However while recompiling I am getting this error -
    xmonad.hs:14:18:
    Could not find module `XMonad.StackSet'
    Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.
    So I checked the modules in my ghc

    Any Idea why pacman is unable to resolve the dependency. Are they availiable in AUR?
    PS: I have just updated by installation and I am not using AUR right now.

    @Raynman
    My pacman.conf was really in a very bad shape at the time of installation of Xmonad. I think I must be careless to notice and removed dependency check.
    When I compiled my xmonad.hs I found errors related to GHC. I was too surprised, however installed it further. Now since GHC was installed later, it missed some modules which were previously installed.
    I tried reinstalling xmonad, xmonad-contrib before but there was no use. However recursively removing and installing, as suggested by you, seems to have fixed have problem. I am now getting following modules in GHC.

    He stated I needed to download using an eternet cable rather than wireless.
    So, I connected the cables and the software upgrade which I paid for began to download.
    He stated it would takle about 2 - 3 hours for the download to complete. Somehow the download is paused, no pun intended,
    and I cannot get the paused to un pause.
    I logged onto my account and the apple store doesn't have a record of the transaction.
    So, how do I download the software I paid for?
    I appreciate your help.

    Hi,
    You can try to [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ download the latest full installer] and upgrade. Please make sure to right-click the file and '''Run as administrator''' to begin the upgrade installation.
    You may also want to [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Backing%20up%20your%20information?s=backup&r=1&e=sph&as=s backup] personal data/folder. Firefox stores the personal profile/data separate from its internal files. [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder & Files]

  • Trouble installing itunes and quick time

    When I attempted to install the new version of iTunes the installer gave me the message "there is a problem with this windows installer package. a program required for this install to complete could not be run." I have downloaded the installer several times. I have windows vista home premium 64 bit.

    "There is a problem with the windows installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run.
    With that one, I'd start by trying the measures from the following polydorus post:

  • I'm having troubles installing things

    I'm having trouble installing many things. I've had trouble installing Aim and The Sims Online. Please help me.

    Well we need more information about what the type of trouble is that you are having. You have not provided any info at all. Is it a downlaod issue, are you dowloading the correct files, i.e. for Mac OS X and not .exe files.
    Have you downloaded files? What do you then do with them?

  • I am having trouble viewing iStore. It appears as if its a Flash issue, as several minutes after logging in to iStore I get a non-flash page of iStore in my iTunes window. I have re-installed everything and tried opening all ports in router....any ideas?

    I am having trouble viewing iStore. It appears as if its a Flash issue, as several minutes after logging in to iStore I get a non-flash page of iStore in my iTunes window. I have re-installed everything and tried opening all ports in router, and used msconfig to bring up each service individually to see if there is an effect.Flash and iTunes have been re-installed  ...any ideas?

    I agree. I don't rely on iCloud as a backup, that is what I have my portable hard drive for. Its 500 GB so I can hold my entire iTunes library several times over on it. I have all my movies on my hard drive, but somehow "The Mist" got deleted off of my hard drive, so I figured "Well, the option to redownload an already purchased movie is available through iCloud, I'll just do that!"
    And permissions and download availability have nothing to do with it, the movie's still there, it still allows me to redownload it. The only problem is when I click download, I get that message.
    And nobody else uses my computer, but I do have multiple accounts authorized on it. Even still though, I am attepmpting to download it through the account I purchased it under. :/

  • Hello i am having trouble installing itunes 10.5 on my laptop i have windows vista. it says error 7 windows error 998. i now have no itunes. i have tried to uninstall itunes but it still wont work and keep coming up with that message. please help!

    hello
    i am having major trouble installing itunes. i had itunes working fine and i went to update it as it told me there was an update which i thought i did. i went on my laptop the next day and it said "itunes was not installed correctly error 7 windows error 998"
    i read a few articles on here but i am having no joy. i uninstalled itunes and reinstalled and that did not work. i also unistalled some other apple things cant remember the names sorry!
    i am not a whiz on a computer so really need some help please!!

    Installing, and uninstalling, applications never touches or removes the data.
    Clean out and uninstall all the apple programs and software thru Programs and manually.
    Might want to use Revo and CCleaner
    I always use manual standalone installers (and keep a couple backup versions)
    itunes 10.5 may affect iTunes media playlists, not sure, depends on what you have.
    A search of these forums will show some threads.
    I'd clean up vista, you need SP2 or later, and specific error message?
    I wonder as you arenot the first with a dell if maybe the OS or included software.
    Security programs like Norton and older versions of Kaspersky have been implicated.
    Also settings in IE that affect pop-ups and plug-ins.
