[SOLVED] Cups wiki page needs little fix!

Hi!
I finally get my printer working again, after a month.
I discovered, casually, that the udev rule contained there: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CU … g_firmware now doesn't work anymore, because the path to rmmod is probably changed.
Now it must be something like:
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="lp*", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03f0", \
ATTRS{idProduct}=="3d17", RUN+="/usr/bin/sleep 15"
ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="lp*", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="03f0", \
ATTRS{idProduct}=="3d17", RUN+="/usr/bin/rmmod usblp"
So it's enough to change /sbin/rmmod to /usr/bin/rmmod.
EDIT: while i was writing and was reading the wiki page, it seems now it is correct?? Am i fool or it has been changed right now?

It seems like everybody and their hot sister heard of this Beranger person except me
Update: can't say I checked any of his older posts but I guess I've seen part of his 'dumping linux' blog post -- most likely the one that 'angried' people and said sisters. I can only ask myself: what the big deal is? Who actually cares? Personally I never understood blogs nor the need to have them .. but it was my opinion that these unfortunate inventions were supposed to be destined for your friends (+sisters) to read. So I can't understand this: why does anybody else in the world -- care -- about what that guy uses/doesn't use? What makes him so important / such a(n) hero.

[SOLVED] Wiki page for GPT disks and booting arch using UEFI

Hi guys, I am new to archlinux. I installed archlinux x86_64 just yesterday and I like its customisability. I also like arch wiki. Nowhere else have I seen such extensive documentation, especially about things like HAL, UDEV etc. with proper instructions. Thanks to all archers.
I have installed Archlinux x86_64 in my Dell India Studio 1537 laptop along with Windows 7 Professional x64. Both the OSes boot in UEFI-GPT setup (my UEFI is tianocore.sourceforge.net EDK DUET UEFI64 firmware booting from USB). I boot Archlinux using my own compiled grub2-bzr compiled for both BIOS and UEFI-x64. I have a 1 MB BIOS Boot Partition as required by grub2 for BIOS-GPT booting. My Archlinux system can boot both from bios and from uefi, while Windows can boot only using UEFI.
The official Archlinux installation guide talks about only MBR (or msdos disklabel) partitions and booting from BIOS based systems. With 2TB drives becoming common place and UEFI being implemented (search for Phoenix SecureCore Tiano's 1 second POST operation), I think a proper wiki page describing differences between MBR and GPT, why GPT is better, how to setup arch to boot from GPT. Another page describing steps to setup arch to boot from UEFI (either as a separate page or as an extension of GRUB2 wiki page) is also needed.
Some details regarding Pure GPT (not a Hybrid GPT/MBR setup) and/or UEFI setups :-
Partitioning tools -
GNU Parted for filesystem related tasks
GPT fdisk tool - http://rodsbooks.com/gdisk/ , http://sourceforge.net/projects/gptfdisk/ , pacman -S gdisk (in extra repo) - for non-filesystem related tasks
util-linux-ng fdisk does not support GPT disks
Bootloader - GRUB2 - vanilla grub-legacy does not support GPT and does not support UEFI (Fedora's patched grub-legacy does support both GPT and UEFI) and syslinux does not support GPT (I may be wrong here - seems a gptmbr of syslinux does help in booting from gpt but not sure).
For GRUB2 - Need BIOS Boot Partition to embed GRUB2's core.img in GPT disks - size about 1 MB max - no filesystem
In GPT fdisk partition type code - EF02
In GNU Parted or GParted - bios_grub flag on
For UEFI-GPT booting this special partition is not needed as no embedding takes place. This is needed only in case of BIOS-GPT booting.
Incase of custom kernel configuration - enable CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION for GPT support
CONFIG_EFI for UEFI support (for UEFI even above option required)
CONFIG_EFI_VARS for UEFI Runtime Variables support (optional)
Note: Although GPT is part of UEFI specification, a UEFI system is not needed to boot from/use GPT. BIOS based GPT booting is possible with GRUB2 or Fedora's patched grub-legacy (but not vanilla grub-legacy provided by archlinux). It is also possible to boot Linux in UEFI-MBR setup (again using grub2) but I have not tried it.
Even without UEFI and less than 2TB harddrives, GPT based partitioning has many advantages - secondary GPT header and Partition table, CRC32 checksums. Unique Disk GUID and Filesystem-independent Unique Partition GUIDs, multiple primary partitions (default is 128 partitions, but it can be changed). The only problamatic OS is Windows which does not allow GPT booing unless one has UEFI based system. It allows only UEFI-GPT or BIOS-MBR setups. In linux it just depends on how the bootloader is configured - not a problem with grub2.
I also propose that incase of Auto-prepare Hard Drive, the installer default to GPT for "archlinux only" installs ( ie no dual-boot or triple-boot etc.).
I did not use the official archlinux iso but used archboot 2010.04 R3 as it gave an option of installing to GPT and also provided GRUB2 during bootloader install. I have never edited any wiki page before, thats why I request some one else to start a wiki page with the information given above.
I don't know whether this is the right place, but any Windows (Vista or 7 x64 versions) and Linux dual-boot user who has UEFI-based system with GPT partitioning and wants to get rid of Hybrid MBR setup (to boot Windows) can follow this post http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/lofive … hp/t186440 (outside this forum) - this link describes the way to make Windows boot natively in UEFI-GPT setup. After doing this one can install arch using GRUB2 compiled for UEFI x86_64, and Windows will also see

Welcome to arch, skodabenz! Offering documentation on third post - all thumbs up
You could start the wiki page in your user-space with what you have, and then invite others to join working on it. Just register a wiki account, navigate to the page you want to start, for example:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:skodabenz/GPT
and click on "edit this page".
As noted in the other thread, arch's legacy grub is patched for gpt support. I don't know about UEFI, but you can always open a bug report asking for the patches from fedora to be included.
edit: the page from Rod Smith is a great resource. I was absolutely terrified at first by all this screwed up GPT/MBR stuff when I tried triple-booting Arch, Win and OS x, but he really does a great job explaining what it is all about.

The system is a dual PIII using the arch ISO 7.1 release.
Any thoughts on what is wrong with my setup? Or something I can try. I'm game for just about anything in my test environment to try and get it working.
Thanks,
Chris....

After the basketball games where over tonight I had a thought (and a little research). The install iso I was using was a pre-release of 0.7.1. When I downloaded the real mccoy and did a fresh install following the instructions on the wiki, all worked flawlessly!

What does a new non-DE user need? | Help for a Wiki page

Hey Archers,
I'm using Arch with the Compiz Standalone Window Manager and I need some help for a project.
It turns out (who knew) that computers need a lot more to run smoothly than just a desktop and applications. You need network managers, gtk themes and much much more. Now, Desktop Environments such as GNOME and KDE provide a lot of these programs built-in, good for them, but I'm looking to build my system as dependency-free as I can and the big DE's don't really provide that. Especially GNOME just ropes me in whenever I want to use the tiniest piece of it (darn you gnome-keyring).
So I come to you fora, with a quest for information. I want to compile an overview of essential and useful applications with minimal dependencies that allow a CompizIndy user to build his system freely. And if I get enough information, I want to turn it into its own page for the Wiki so it becomes easier to get started with a birds-eye view of what you need to flesh out your system (not exclusively for CompizIndy btw). So please help me!
What applications/daemons/tools should a new system install? I'm not asking which ones are the best or worst or your favorites, just which kinds do you need --that aren't covered in the install guide--?
For example it's advisable to get:
Panel/dock
desktop manager
network manager
compositing manager
a tool for managing removable devices (ntfs-3g etc)
a packer/unpacker
a screensaver
power management
alt-F2 runcommand
custom keybindings
a user switch/logout manager
a volume manager
etc.
So what do you recommend? What do you need to get up and going?
Hoping to hear from you guys and girls,
Matthias
PS: if I'm doubling up on anything, please let me know and save me effort and embarassment ^_^
Last edited by Matsjo (2011-01-28 20:37:26)

There are many threads on this, although individual ones asking for "the best app to do XXX". You could try searching those. Also Search for the LnF Awards threads. you might find a few ideas there. We also have wiki pages for light-weight applications which might be useful
Panel/dock none
desktop manager none
network manager netcfg
compositing manager none or xcompmgr (for basic compositing)
a tool for managing removable devices (ntfs-3g etc) udiskie or udev rules or devmon
a packer/unpacker coreutils eg - tar, bzip etc with an alias called "ex" in .aliases
a screensaver none
power management ???
alt-F2 runcommand gmrun
custom keybindings xbindkeys
a user switch/logout manager none
a volume manager see udiskie....
BTW, if this is for you, then simply install Arch and use a non DE based WM --- eventually you will figure out what you are missing

[SOLVED] Newbie asks how to suggest edits to LVM Luks Wiki page...

I'm a newb to Arch. I've been using Fedora for about four years, so Arch is a fun challenge. And I wish to contribute to the clarity of the Wiki page. Having set up LUKS with LVM for Fedora twice, and now Arch, one or two points might benefit the following wiki pages.
First, The instructions for kernel parameters on Kernel parameter configuration of the bootloader refers to the kernel parameter as:
cryptdevice=<device>:<dmname>
<device>
The path to the raw encrypted device. Usage of Persistent block device naming is advisable.
<dmname>
The name given to the device after decryption, will be available as /dev/mapper/<dmname>. (<dmname> MUST NOT be set to a name already used for LVM partitions!)
While higher up the page LVM on LUKS:
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 lvmpool (alternate)
For setting up LVM ontop the encryption layer the device file for the decrypted volume group would be anything like /dev/mapper/lvmpool instead of /dev/sda3. LVM will then give additional names to all logical volumes created, e.g. /dev/mapper/lvmpool-root and /dev/mapper/lvmpool-swap.
The alternate reflects the LVM setup which seems to be a best practice in Fedora. My working setup is
cryptdevice=/dev/sda3:<LVMvolumeGroup>
. And when mounting the LUKS partitions I found it necessary to activate the volume group name with
#vgchange -ay <volumeGroup>
In that scenario the configuration install was:
# cryptsetup luksFormat -y --cipher aes-xts-plain --key-size 512 /dev/sda3
# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sda3 cryptVG
# pvcreate /dev/mapper/crypt
# vgcreate cryptVG /dev/mapper/crypt
# lvcreate -n root -L 20.0G cryptVG
# lvcreate -n swap -L 6.0G cryptVG
# lvcreate -n data -l 100%FREE cryptVG
/** For Arch you're applying the file-systems now, but in Fedora, the Anaconda installer takes care of it.**/
# cryptsetup luksClose crypt
For me, as a newbie setting up the two L's I found it easier to understand LVM as logical volumes in a volume group. Not sure how much this matters in theory, but in practice as a newbie setting up the two L's, I found it easier to understand LVM as logical volumes in a single volume group. Mainly because the Anaconda installer was automatically setting up the volume group name, and when I used the above setup, my custom name was reflected in Anaconda's GUI.
Second, The omnious Bang'd warning not to use 'a name already used for LVM partitions' seemed to conflict with the GRUB page instructions, until I noticed the GRUB page didn't include LVM. Given the popularity of LUKS and LVM solutions, it seems some hyperlinking notes would be appropriate. Yes?
And maybe third... I was working on a GRUB config issue and couldn't find any reference in the GRUB wiki page to explain to me the difference between GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX and GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT (or more importantly, something to explain putting commands into one, the other or both). The GRUB wiki instructs to put the encryption parameter on the former, and dm-luks instructs to put it ... well, it doesn't state where to put the encryption parameters, and simply refers to Kernel parameters page.

As stated by WonderWoofy, you are more than welcome on the wiki! Just register and edit the article, but I'd like to add that you (like everyone else) are very warmly invited to always explain each of your edits exhaustively using the Edit Summary at the bottom of the Editor page; if the explanation is so long that doesn't fit in the summary, open a discussion in the talk page and link to that discussion from the summary itself. Last thing, don't do big edits all at once, but prefer splitting your work in a series of little edits: this will help everybody understand what you've done, since the resulting diffs will be much clearer.

Wireless wiki pages -- refresh needed?

I spent some time today reviewing the current linuxwireless docs regarding iw. I feel like the current wiki pages on wireless (and some of the standard networking wiki stuff) is a bit out of date, but I wanted to see if others concurred.
I'm happy to draft some update edits, though others might be in a better position to state whether there is need.
I'm thinking of:
ip replacing ifconfig (general networking)
iw replacing iwconfig
/run in lieu of /var in various config examples
All these are, I think, current based on existing official ISOs.
I can post this question to the discussion pages as well, of course.

karol, thanks for the quick reply. I'll do that (i've been tweaking the wpa_supplicant page already, but I wanted to take baby steps and double check to ensure that I have my details correct, as well as that they are in line with the current ISOs at minimum).
I also had some thoughts on restructuring some of those wiki pages for clarity. It seemed to me that in any case of "large" structural changes it might be better if I created a new draft article in the wiki for review. That's not something I'm going to jump into just yet, but wanted to field this idea now. Basically I wanted to rewrite some things but don't want to make them officially part of the page via an edit without other's feedback first.

I need help using multiple content types in a wiki page library

I currently trying to used multiple custom content types based off of the wiki page content type in one wiki page library.
EDIT: "Allow management of content types" has been enabled with the designer
The way i would like this library to work is:
Click the "Files" tab in the ribbon
Click the "New Document" drop down menu
Select one of the content types (Client, Contact, Project)
SharePoint Will Ask for the Page Name and content type fields
Click create
Then it will take you to the new created page.
This issue I'm currently having is when i click on one of the options (Client, Contact, Project) it will ask for a page name then you have to check it in to get to the edit form. The edit form it then loads is the default content type and not the selected
content type.
So my questions are.
Is there any way i can combine the page name and edit steps together into one step?
How can I get the edit form to pull from the selected content type?
Thanks in advanced
James T.F

Wiki library isn't really designed for customizations... it's a "special" library that overrides a lot of default behavior... similar evidence can be found if you're trying to add metadata columns to wiki pages... they're just not really designed to handle
it very well.

Need Help With Work Group Wiki Page (404)

I am somwhat of a novice with all this server stuff so I will try to explain....
I have done a standard server install of OS X 10.5.6 Server on my Xserve. Everything seemed to work like a charm. The only problem I am having is when I select my home page to be my Workgroup Wiki page (inside the standard server prefences window). When I select this and try to test the page with the link under the drop down (open home page), it opens Safari and the header looks right but the page says "Not Found. 404: No group with that name (workgroup) hosted on this server).
I have a Workgroup and then two other groups....print and interactive. I want people to be able to log-on and see the main work group wiki page and then be able to select to go to one of the other two groups. I have had this working before but had to reformat my hard drive and reinstall the OS.
From the page that comes-up, I CAN click on the "groups" link in the header bar and that does take me to a working page, but I want to be able to have people go to this workgroup page first.
Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
If you have the original index.html file installed in the /Library/WebServer/Documents/ folder then your wikid server will use it to display the web service groups.
If you have changed the index.html file or substituted a different index.html then wikid will not be able to perform its display action.

[FIXED] Atheros Issues, Wiki Page Incorrect

Thanks for your time.
I'm installing Arch for the first time and my laptop uses Atheros 2 / 5 series drivers. The wiki page says to use pacman -S madwifi but the package is not available even after pacman -Syy and I do have the requested extra repository enabled.
What do?
EDIT REASON: Note that the wireless works in the live CD, using wpa_supplicant.
Last edited by Puck Norris (2013-05-14 18:50:24)

I completely agree and I understand the point, and it is well-received, however the problem persists, and my wireless card is certainly compatible (the installation disc works with the exact same command set that I am running, but it works, and the hard disk installation does not).
The point is this, that on the hard drive there resides a file:
/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
ssid="MyNetwork"
psk="MyPassword"
And that when the following line is run on the live CD, I gain network access (can ping google) but when it is run from the rebooted installed system, no network access is gained, despite the output being very similar.
wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /mnt/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
This line causes the liveCD to gain Internet access, which can then be utilized with arch-chroot /mnt to emulate the system.
The problem is that when I run the same command (albeit substituting a new identifier for wlan0 due to ip link results) no Internet connectivity is gained. There is a message about association request to driver failed in both examples, but in the rebooted hard-drive system, there simply is no network access.
These results are inexplicable to me because to my knowledge, I have followed the wiki guides.
Please, once again, understand that all of this is very new to me, so simple mistakes will likely be plentiful, and I apologize in advance for any duplication of efforts that I might cause unintentionally.

[solved] Wordpress Blank Page on Install

I could use a little help installing wordpress on my home machine. I did my best to follow the instructions given on the wiki page, including using phpMyAdmin. I was able to get everything to work right up until after saving the provided text into wp-config.php. After clicking the button to "Run the Install", I am greeted not by a "Success!", but by simply a blank, white page. I've found lots of questions about this exact issue, but every solution is different and not fixing the problem: one said the memory allocation default of ~4MB in php.ini is too small--the setting in my file was already 128MB, not 4MB. Another suggested I didn't have a complete set of the files--well, I wouldn't expect that to be the case for a vanilla install using pacman, at least without a note in the wiki saying, "You need this file and you don't already have it!!"
Would anyone with some experience be willing to help me troubleshoot this? I'm foraging into a new field I have little experience in; I was able to get dokuwiki to work, for example, but I've never done anything beyond that. This issue is especially frustrating because all I get is a blank screen; no messages, no logs... how am I supposed to track down the problem, especially when I'm finding so many different problems that have this exact same symptom?
A couple of things to note: I would like to install the actual wordpress files into /srv/http/wordpress instead of using the default /usr/share/webapps/wordpress. (Probably in its own partition in the end, but right now I'll settle for just getting it to work.) I suspect that, like I found out in my dokuwiki experimenting, I should just copy the contents of the installation directory to where I want to use it and ensure that the httpd-wordpress.conf file points to the appropriate place. (Which, by the way, is never explained in the wiki for either wordpress or dokuwiki; I think it probably ought to be.) Even so, I have tried to get it working using the default directory, and it has the exact same result. I don't believe it's a permissions problem, because I have tried setting the directory ownership to my user and still have no change.
I did follow the instructions while configuring phpMyAdmin under Enabling Configuration Storage (optional).

I'm glad you were able to find the problem! Yeah, gotta watch out for Vim. What a crappy editor.
I do think it's interesting that you chose to do a raw install; if you ever need to uninstall, is there any issue, or simply a matter of removing the whole directory? I suspect that what I have done has the same effect; by copying the /usr/share/webapps/wordpress/ directory I've essentially installed it to a separate location, and everything is run from there. We'll have to see.. I'm still trying to learn how to build a webpage, let alone a wordpress theme.
"Installation" of WordPress is simply unpackaging a tar file. Yes, uninstallation would be done by deleting the one WordPress directory. Yes, you created your own local installation by copying the files that pacman installed. You can uninstall the "wordpress" package and it will (of course) have no effect on your WordPress site.
I have the permissions configured a little differently than how pacman sets things up. I think pacman installs all of the files and directories as owned by "root" whereas I have them owned by the "http" user (which is the user that my Apache server runs as). That's what allows the WordPress software to update itself and install it's own themes.
After getting WordPress installed, running my own blog has been dead simple. I just login to it as if it were any old blog on wordpress.com.
Good luck with your site!

Problem with adding a second Categories field to my Enterprise Wiki Page template

I wanted to add a second category field beside the default wiki category. So I did the following steps:-
Inside my enterprise wiki site collection, I added a new Site Column, named “customer” with a managed metadata type.
Then I added the site column to the “Enterprise Wiki Page” content type.
After that using the SharePoint Designer , I added the new “Customer ” column to my EnterpriseWiki.aspx page layout.
The result was that I got a new category field , but I am facing these two problems:-
When selecting items for the new metadata column, the items are not clickable, unlike the default Wiki Category field, which allow users to click on the terms , as follow:-
The new category column was not displayed inside the Tree View , same as for the default Wiki category, as follow:-

The Visio Web Part displays Visio diagrams that are located in SharePoint. Once you log out it won't have access to your desktop anymore. Instead you should upload the Visio document to a SharePoint library and then reference it from
there. It would be nice if it was integrated into a single process, but I suspect its not something MS thought enough people would do to spend the time writing the extra code to integrate it. So at least for now its a two step process.

I am working on an enterprise wiki site collection. and i want to add a view diagram to my wiki pages, to allow users to read them. so i did the following :-
I edit the page.
Under Web part, I select “Business Data”, then “Visio web access”.
I click on “Click here to open the tool pane”.
but how i can upload the visio diagram from my PC to my wiki page, as seems the options only allow selecting from avilable site assets ?
Second question.if i upload the Visio diagram successfully ,, will it be displayed inside my wiki page ?
Thanks in advance for any help

The Visio Web Part displays Visio diagrams that are located in SharePoint. Once you log out it won't have access to your desktop anymore. Instead you should upload the Visio document to a SharePoint library and then reference it from
there. It would be nice if it was integrated into a single process, but I suspect its not something MS thought enough people would do to spend the time writing the extra code to integrate it. So at least for now its a two step process.

Please remember to mark your question as "answered" if this solves your problem.
so to add a visio diagram , we need to do the following:-
1. upload the visio to SP.
2. add a web part.
3. Browse for the Visio drawing.
