[SOLVED]ARU and screen-vs

Hello All,
So let me start at the beginning. I have been using linux for about awhile an have been using Ubuntu and CentOS on and off. After hearing about Arch I thought I would give it a try. I currently have Arch install as a command line environment only. Mostly for learning purposes. I was doing some reading here: http://kmandla.wordpress.com/.
So here is my question. I am about confused about AUR. What exactly is it? and I am confused on how to setup screen-vs. How does this all work in Arch. Here is the link to screen-vs that I found in AUR. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=6006
Thanks in advance!

So if I understand from the instruction. Download the patch for screen and all the files from here: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/screen-vs/screen-vs/
After that I would run makepkg -s and then run the install with pacman? Does that sound about right?

[SOLVED] Virtualbox and screen resolutions...

I'm not sure if any of the following updates could have done it but the auto change resolution feature in a Virtualbox Windows guest has suddenly stopped working... I tried reinstalling virtualbox and extensions and reinstalling the virtualbox drivers in windows but it doesn't work for some reason. Any one else experience this lately?
Thanks!

No dice... I did all that and still doesn't work. Do you think gnome3.2 has something to do with it?

I don't have problems with auto change resolution and my system is up to date, particularly xorg (not gnome, i don't use it).
However I don't use virtualbox-bin (I did, in the past), I don't think its needed anymore.
I have installed:
virtualbox 4.1.4-2
virtualbox-additions 4.1.4-1
virtualbox-ext-oracle 4.1.4-1 (from aur)
and then installed the guest additions, which should be enough.

Hard drive and screen failures

Hello all, thank you for any help! I have to do this on my phone, apologies for any errors!
I have an early 2011 macbook pro, purchased in the fall of 2011.
Last repair:
I had 3 year apple care, and had last taken it for repairs september 2014, for first not ejecting discs from optical drive, then losing touchpad sensory control, then starting to sometimes not booting and/or black screen. When I got it back they had replaced the logic board, hard drive, and screen and connections there were a few screws not flush on the base, and they said that was fine, and it needed to be like that for the touchpad to work.
Today, this morning, it was fine. I left it at 9 am, came back at noon and the screen was black, and only the least of fan sounds
I have
MBPro early 2011 OSX 10.7.4 Lion
Use surge protector 95% of the time (except rarely when out at a cafe)
'Symptoms':
Black screen
No boot sound on start up
No sounds of hard drive or disc/DVD drive
No indicator light bar at the front right corner
Sound of fans running on low
Light from charger indicator is green (full)
I tried:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
A)Shift-control-option-power a handful of times, no change
B)Disconnected power cord, waited, reconnected
Combinations of these (power off, then A, B, power on; on, A, B, on; B, A, on; etc)
D) I tried command-R, no boot, no change
Results: only when I use method A, then the optical drive clicks/buzzes. Otherwise no change for any other attempts I listed ^. If I shut down and restart with the power button then as before, no sounds except low level fan sound.
I am quite disappointed, one reason I've enjoyed Apple products is in being able to use them for 5-10 years :/

Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the third-party developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, email the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

In System Prefereneces, when I am in Desktop and Screen Saver, I am unable to remove folders. I can click the "-" and the folder appears to be gone, but when I close and then reopen System Preferences, and open Desktop and Screen Saver, the folder reappea

In System Prefereneces, when I am in Desktop and Screen Saver, I am unable to remove folders. I can click the "-" and the folder appears to be gone, but when I close and then reopen System Preferences, and open Desktop and Screen Saver, the folder reappears in the list. I have tried deleting preferences "plist" but I am totally unable to remove the folders.

I've seen one other report like yours, and I think the issue is caused by a bug, but I don't know what triggers it.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Hi,
Yes, even I had lot of problems with IE7 finally i had to instal windows XP all over again with IE6. Please note that even if you downgrade from IE7 to IE6 without installing windows all over again you will still get problem. the best and only solution is to instal windows from scratch and please ensure that the CD that you have instals IE6 and not IE7 because the CD that I had installed IE7 with XP therefore I had to get another windows XP with IE6 and had to create recovery disk before so that I do not have to run around for drivers later.
Hope this helps

Deepak

[VIA] MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU and a MSI FX5900XT 128MB DDR Video Card

Does any body out there know if a MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU and a MSI FX5900XT 128MB DDR Video Card will work well together?

like the grayone say, is true. for more ensure, try and search the graphic cards support list for your board at MSI (Sorry cause i don,t no is where the site located)
in my opinion, most is compability for your card, when is a AGP slot.
Except the new one like the AGP slot, call AGR( Accelaration Graphic Riser slot) that really need to find a compatibility graphic cards.....

MSI KT3 Ultra ARU and S2K Bus Disconnect

Hello
I have a MSI KT3 Ultra ARU and a AMD Athlon XP 2600+ (266 FSB version). I wonder if I have support for termal diode in both CPU and mainboard.
Is S2K Bus Disconnect and CPU HALT Command detection the same thing?

Quote
KT3 ultra's I believe were the first boards capable of reading thermal diode inside of AMD XP (Palamino/T-bred/barton, etc) and higher cores.
Not the first, but they were up there as being among the first. A few KT266 boards implemented the circuitry to read thermal diode. Second or third revision boards, or new models, based on KT266A and even KM266 began implementing the thermal diode circuitry.
KT3 Ultra has thermal diode read circuit:
Quote

Can I use a 15" MBP as keyboard and screen to work on bootable drive MBP 17

Hi, all,
I already asked this question in a post with other questions more prominant so I am trying this as a solo question. I have a MBP 17" intel Core Duo that will be going in for repairs. I have an OWC 1 TB drive formated to be bootable. Can I boot from the external HD from a 15" MBP Core Duo and use it essentially as a keyboard and screen and work on the 17" files with all the software or can I only transfer files to the 15"? The 17" has Leopard and Adobe CS3 (which I cannot do without) the 15" runs Tiger and I run CS2 on it.
Thanks!

Problem using file sharing and screen sharing in Leopard

I have Mac OS 10.5 Leopard installed on 4 computers in a Home Network and have a problem with sharing files and using screen sharing. Here is my setup.
MacBook Pro with my logon ID
MacBook Pro with my fiancee's logon ID
Mac Mini with both of our logon ID's
Mac Pro with both of our logon ID's
The problem I have is I am able to access the Mac Mini computer where we have an external Hard Drive connected for data. She is also able to access it. The only problem is we have it set up to only share this external USB drive. Yet for both of us it shares the external drive along with the internal Macintosh HD. Fortunately this is not a very big deal but since I'm not sharing all those drives why is it doing this?
Also, I am able to connect from the Mac Mini for example to my MBP and vice versa for screen sharing along with file sharing. Yet if she tries to connect to the Mac Pro from her MBP and vice versa it won't. It simply times out and will never connect for screen sharing or file sharing but yet the Finder shows the Mac Pro. We have a 2nd hard drive in the Mac Pro which is the one set up for file sharing. I am also unable to connect to the Mac Pro's HD. Everything appears to be set up correctly. For my MBP on the Finder it shows the Mac Pro but once again I am unable to connect to it for screen sharing or file sharing.
Also, not sure if it's related but even for her MBP she is unable to connect to it from any other computer in our network although it's set up for file sharing and screen sharing so I'm not sure if it's related to her logon ID. Then again as mentioned above neither of us can connect to the Mac Pro.
I tried to make the above sound as simple as possible. I am relatively new to networking and of course Leopard but even on the Mac Pro all settings sound the same as on the Mac Mini where we can both connect to. The only big difference is on the Mini we are connect to a USB external drive, on the Mac Pro an internal drive. Is there something I could have overlooked or are there known issues with Leopard's sharing features?
We both have .mac but since we are using this on an internal network (some wi-fi, some wired, all through an Airport Base Station Extreme) I would think this has nothing to do with Back to my Mac.
I appreciate any help with the above.

FaceTime doesn't do any of that, so I'll assume you mean Messages.

Hi all

i have a macbook pro core 2 duo 2GB ram 160 gb hard disk

Use the computer your on now to download and burn a ISO of PartedMagic to a cd.
In Windows 7 you can right click on the downloaded ISO and click burn to disk, other Windows versions use the free ImgBurn software.
In OS X you can burn the ISO using Disk Utility.
Hook up a external drive to the target Mac.
Stick the PartedMagic disk into the Mac and reboot holding option and c keys (I forget which one works)
Use the first option (default) to load PartedMagic into memory (watch out the disk will eject!)
Once in PartedMagic there is a Mount Drive icon on the right, doubleclick it twice to open two windows (three total) you can now transfer your files after mounting the disks/partitions using the two open file windows.
Unmount the drives before using the "Start" like menu in the lower left corner to quit PartedMagic.
If your Mac works with all this then your in good shape, you just have a hosed operating system and a $29 Snow Leopard install disk (c boot off of it) and a Disk Utility Erase (with Zero Erase preferred) and a reinstall of OSX Snow leopard will do the trick.
If your computer boots off the PartedMagic cd, but you can't find/access the internal drive, then your boot drive is dead and you need to replace it or have someone replace it for you.
If your computer doesn't boot off the PartedMagic cd, then it's likely a serious hardware issue.
