[SOLVED] Can't get systemd to mount nfs on boot

I have "/usr/lib/systemd/system/mnt-shared.mount" with
[Unit]
Description=/mnt/shared
Wants=rpc-statd.service
After=network.target rpc-statd.service
[Mount]
What=10.0.0.3:/home/shared
Where=/mnt/shared
Type=nfs
but when I reboot the mount never occurs. I have to manually do "systemctl start mnt-shared.mount" every time.
Is there something special I have to do for systemd to use .mount files automatically?

In the beginning with systemd I had nfs mounting problems too. But after some extensive testing I found that the fstab mounting was the  best with some systemd adjustments.
192.168.1.250:/ /mnt/SERVER_NYTT nfs4 noauto,rw,hard,async,intr,rsize=81920,wsize=81920,_netdev,clientaddr=192.168.1.251,x-systemd.automount 0 0
All these options might not suit you but noauto and  x-systemd.automount are the important ones. You can test it by doing  systemd-analyze blame. With this setup systemd takes care of all the before, after, requires stuff pretty well by itself.

  • [SOLVED] Can't get xf86-video-r128 to work...

    Hello! Arch newbie here, so far bumpy, but so far so good. Currently posting from TWM for kicks...
    Anyways, my old junker of a computer was where I installed arch, so I could get a hang of it. The graphics card is a ATi RAGE XL AGP 2X... having no luck with xf86-video-ati, I installed xf86-video-r128, and got graphics working for the first time in arch. Hooray!
    Unfortunately, I can't seem to get my monitor's native resolution of 1280x1024. If I try, the monitor refuses to display, and errors out with "Out of Range". I know it's definitely possible, since other linux installations have auto-configured it so far. So, I'm wondering what I need to modify in xorg.conf to get 1280x1024 working.
    It seems like a refresh rate problem, but when I looked over the file, I noticed that "Driver" was set to "vesa". Changing it to "r128" did nothing, as the X server refused to start because it couldn't find any devices.
    I will post my xorg.conf shortly.

    As you can see, the Modes section under 24-bit depth doesn't have "1280x1024", but if I add it in, the X server will default to it (correctly), but I won't be able to see anything.

    Karol, thanks for replying so quickly
    I tried your suggestion to replace "vesa" with "ati" in the "Driver" line. X failed to start, but for some reason, there was some leftover code in xf86-video-ati that caused it to look for the mach64 driver... which as I understand, used to be installed with xf86-video-ati, but no longer... hrm! A quick "pacman -S xf86-video-mach64" later, I now have a working 1280x1024 resolution. Excellent! Changed the DefaultDepth to 16, and now my system is nice and zippy.
    A similar problem is that I still cannot get 1280x1024 in vc1. In /boot/grub/menu.lst, I have "vga=773" added, but that's as high as I can go, vga=775 won't work with the same reason above.
    Small problems in the grand scheme of things. I'm glad the main issue is solved

  • [SOLVED] Can't get CUPS to add / detect HP Laserjet 1100 printer

    I moved my computer downstairs... after a few weeks I decided to move my printer down and set it up. I had it working perfectly a few weeks ago before the move... however now I can't get CUPS to detect or add my printer. At first when I moved my printer downstairs the CUPS web interface had my previous setup still there and had my printer detected / added. However, printing jobs would just stay in the queue and never print. I did some googling and someone mention to remove the printer and re-add it. Well I tried to to that and got stuck on trying to re-add it. CUPS will not identify my printer now. Funny thing is I just now remember I had a similiar issue a few months back and I remembered now I fixed the queue issue just by unplugging the power to my printer and leaving it off for 5min then replugging it in. I have tried all the steps on the wiki and I can't seem to figure this one out. dmesg does output that it is detecting my printer. I have my printer hooked up via a mini parralel to USB cord. If you have any other questions for me please shoot
    Unplugging and repluggin my printer gives me this msg in dmesg:
    usblp0: removed
    usb 6-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4
    usb 6-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
    usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 4 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x4348 pid 0x5584
    hp-toolbox also does not detect any printers. I have tried restarting cupsd... Any help is appreciated... I need to get printing up ASAP since school has started.
    lsusb output this amongst other things:
    Bus 006 Device 004: ID 4348:5584 WinChipHead CH34x printer adapter cable
    If it matters I am using XFCE as my DE... I also do not remember using the CUPS interface to intially add the printer... I do not exactly remember how I did it... but the web interface looked completely new to me and I am rather sure that is not how I initially went about doing it... perhaps I used some GUI frontend for it...
    EDIT: After reading the forum descriptions closer... perhaps this should be moved to the Workstation section.

    Tell you the truth... I have no idea how to change it or what not... I didn't even add that manually... just rebooted my computer one day and it appeared there.
    hpsetup does not detect my printer
    system-config-printer gives me an error when I try and add a printer. I manually specify the location to file:/dev/usb/lp0 ... I scroll down find HP LaserJet 1100 and the recommended driver is hpjis 3.9.8. I select that and I get the following:
    There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not-possible'
    EDIT: I am about ready to chunk to this printer out the window... I have been messing with this for about a week now and I just keep getting two steps forward and then three steps backwards.
    The system-config-printer dialog looked familiar and I believe that when I intially was able to set up my printer and had it working upstairs I used that dialog to add my printer.
    Some googling brought me to this ubuntu bug report
    Your USB-to-parallel adapter does not pass through the printer ID. The device is recognized as printer, but there is no information about manufacturer and model. Therefore system-config-printer and hal-cups-utils automatically assign the text-only printer to the unknown device.
    In general you have to run system-config-printer and manually choose manufacturer and model.
    That you cannot print at all is a bug of the "hal" CUPS backend. See
    https://fedorahosted.org/hal-cups-utils/ticket/5
    Try to do the following:
    cupsctl FileDevice=yes
    lpadmin -p <your print queue name> -E -v file:/dev/usb/lp0
    This is an ugly workaround which works if you have only one printer (the one with the adapter cable) on USB. Does it work for you?
    Now the problem is that I can not add my printer via the system-config-printer. However, if I go the CUPS web interface and hit manage printers the driver is listed as the following:
    Driver:    Local Raw Printer (grayscale)
    Now I think that is my issue... I need to have it set to the correct driver... if I hit modify printer and select my Make/Model I get the following access error:
    401 Unauthorized
    Enter your username and password or the root username and password to access this page. If you are using Kerberos authentication, make sure you have a valid Kerberos ticket.
    However there is no prompt or I do not know where to enter this information to.

  • SOLVED: Can't get CM 1015 printer to scan: where is the "HP Solution Center" ?

    Hi,
    I have a HP cm1015 printer.
    Recently win8.1 was installed, and I had to reinstall the printer.
    I downloaded drivers from the hp site, but I can't get the printer to scan.
    It prints, and copies ok, but scanning doesn't work.
    What is unclear:
     If I go to the download driver page, I can download 4 different kind of drivers.
    I can choose between :
    Driver - Universal print Driver
    - for windows PCL6
    - For Windows Postscript
    - for windows PLC5
    Software - Universal Print driver
    - HP Printer administrator resource kit.
    I chose 
    - for windows PCL6
    The "HP Printer administrator resource kit.": are all different files. Don't know what to do with it.
    To scan I should be able to get into the "HP solution Center", according to the manual.
    However, after downloading and installing the "windows PCL6" driver, I don't see that center on my PC.
    So how do I get the HP solution center ?
    Thx!
    Solution: http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?​docId=emr_na-c03506225

    Problem 1: HP Solution Cntr could not detect any devices and closed down
    Solution???  I downloaded, uninstalled and re-installed the driver  successfully.....but could not "add the device" in the last step even if I followed the instructions carefully:  a) make sure device is powered on
                                                                                                              b) connect USB cable
    Per Control Panel, printer is "ready" but does not print. 
    Problem 2: My HP Solution Center disappeared.  How do I re-establish connection?

  • [SOLVED] Can't get curl to work, among everything else

    No matter what form I put curl in, I can't see to get it to work. The various manuals I've read through <man> and online have all shown me different examples, but none work.
    I've tried <command> | curl -F 'sprunge=<-'http://sprunge.us' and it does... nothing.
    I've tried substituting ix urls and pastebin urls but it does nothing.
    I feel like a complete moron because everyone expects me to instantly understand what all this gibberish means, and no one else seems to have a problem uploading command text online.
    I've had trouble every step of the way installing arch, and its taken me four hours to slug through each problem. Right now I can't start fluxbox for some reason, but I can't get the errors here except for what I write down.
    Heres the error for that
    Xmodmap: unable to open display ''
    Error: Couldn't connect to XServer
    I've tried redirecting xmodmap to the keys but it did nothing. I've tried figuring out this xserver thing but my retardation has apparently gotten in the way.
    Is this normal? Does everyone feel like an 90 year old when they first jump into arch linux?

    Did what you said. PCM was the only one muted.
    Oddly, I recently started having the opposite problem.  KDE startup and other systems sounds have stopped playing.  All my other sound (mplayer, flash, etc) work fine.  I can play the startup sound fine when opening it via dolphin.  It just doesn't play on startup, or any other system sound.  I know this happened after a recent update but I am not sure what or when caused it.  Startup sound isn't that important to me but fixing it is.  No luck so far.

  • [SOLVED] Can't get ccache and colorgcc to work together

    Hi all,
    Has anyone figured out how to get ccache and colorgcc to work at the same time?  I can only get one or the other, but not both.
    If I put them both in the path, with colorgcc first, then "g++" invokes colorgcc, which then calls /usr/bin/g++, skipping ccache.
    If I put ccache first in the path instead, then running "g++" invokes ccache, which then calls /usr/bin/g++, skipping colorgcc for some reason.
    Putting colorgcc back to first in the path, then editing /etc/colorgcc/colorgccrc means I can set the compiler paths to point to ccache.  However then running "g++" invokes colorgcc, which calls ccache, but then ccache seems to call colorgcc again, which calls ccache, which calls colorgcc, etc, etc.
    Perhaps I'm missing something, but I can't see how you tell ccache where the compiler binaries are located, as this seems to be the problem - ccache autodetects them, and always seems to pick the ones I don't want!
    Any suggestions?

    Ha, ok, as usual as soon as I post in a forum I stumble across the answer.  Turns out there's a CCACHE_PATH environment variable you can use to tell ccache where to look for the real compilers.  It doesn't seem to work setting this to point to colorgcc, but putting only colorgcc in the path, editing /etc/colorgcc/colorgcc to point to ccache, then setting CCACHE_PATH=/usr/bin seems to do the trick...
    But if there's a better way please let me know!

    I assume you're running nm-applet --sm-disable once you get a window manager session up?
    Try starting networkmanager after hal. From the wiki:
    You must also "disable" the default network daemon, and add the hal, dhcdbd and networkmanager daemons in this order:
    DAEMONS=( ... !network hal dhcdbd networkmanager ... )

  • [SOLVED] Can't get Beryl to run - Error: "No composite extension"

    I'm using Arch current on a Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop with the Intel 950 graphics chipset and the xf86-video-i810 driver, with KDE as a Desktop and with beryl-kde installed.  I modified xorg.conf to enable AIXGL as prescribed in the Arch Beryl wiki but I can't get Beryl to work.  I get this error: Checking for XComposite extension: failed ... No composite extension.
    The last two entries in my xorg.conf are:
