[SOLVED] error make file compat-drivers

I just install arch linux on my laptop, and now I don't have any internet connection, last time i use an analog modem install it via wvdial, after the reboot it doesn't recognize the command, so now I'm trying to install my ethernet connection, with this
$ wget http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat- … pc.tar.bz2
$ tar xjf compat-wireless-3.6.8-1-snpc.tar.bz2
$ cd compat-wireless-3.6.8-1-snpc
$ ./scripts/driver-select alx
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ sudo modprobe alx
Cause I don't have internet connection I download the package with other pc, problem now is that when I type the command ./scripts/driver-select alx appears something like this
Processing new driver-select request...
Backing up makefile: Makefile.bk

I don't know if the code above indicates that something is missing, but when I try the make command this appears

Did you recently update the kernel and not reboot? Although your path, "/lib/modules/3.7.10-1..." seems to be correct, though. I had a similar problem, except the path make was using was "/lib/modules/3.7.9..." when my kernel version was actually 3.7.10-1. It turns out that I had forgotten to reboot after a kernel upgrade. Rebooting fixed it for me. I... kind of doubt this is your problem, though.
cd to your /lib/modules/3.7.10-1-ARCH directory, and check to see that there is a symlink in there called "build".

[Solved] Error : The file or folder path /Probl?me 1 does not exist

Hello,
I encountered this error
The file or folder <path>/Probl?me 2 does not exist
while I was trying to open a directory already extracted from a zip file containing directories with special characters. In this case, it is a "è" that was misinterpreted as a "?".
I searched the forums and on google, the solutions proposed do not work for me. Although, I have to deal with these files written in french, I would like to have my locale in english (US), with a system wide support for special characters.
Attempt 1: Adding the option : iocharset=utf8 into the fstab, like this :
fstab :

#.host:/ /mnt/hgfs vmhgfs defaults 0 0
This solution does not work, because after adding iocharset=utf8, in front or after a "defaults", after a reboot, while mounting the filesystem, there is the following error message:
Mounting Locale Filesystem :

It is complicated to remove these directories. I had to use the inum to get precisely these directories before removing them.
$ ls -il

$ find . -inum 1577566 -exec rm -i {} \;
rm: impossible de supprimer « ./Probl\212me 1 »: est un dossier
Note that the hypothetical character 'è' is represented has a '\212', a 'È' if seen as a extended ASCII character.
These directories cannot be deleted this way :
$ rm -r Problème\ 1
rm: cannot remove `Problème 1': No such file or directory
or
$ rm -r ProblÈme\ 1
rm: cannot remove `ProblÈme 1': No such file or directory
What should I do to be make the operating system recognize those special character, and interpret them correctly ?

I found a working solution, but better solution are also welcome
I had to have fr_CA not only in utf8 but also in iso88591. I had to modify the /etc/rc.conf this way :
LOCALE="fr_CA" <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
HARDWARECLOCK=""
TIMEZONE="America/Montreal"
KEYMAP="us"
CONSOLEFONT=
CONSOLEMAP=
USECOLOR="yes"
To preserve the english US language system wide, I had to add the following line in the /etc/profile :
# Allow french special character while in en_US
export LANG=en_US
The character misinterpreted by a "?" is now seen :
as a "è" in dolphin
as a "?" in the console
It is now possible to access the folders.

[solved] "Error - all files must have permissions of 644 or 755"

Hello,
when I try to update an AUR package, I get the error message:
Error - all files must have permissions of 644 or 755.
How can I find out which file in the tree is causing that problem?
And what is the cleanest way to change that? Change permissions via chmod in the pkg dir?

Urgent Error : Make file in PRO*COBOL

Hi All,
We are trying to Make a COBOL file using Oracle 8.0.5 but ends with an error in a production environment. The OS is Solaris 8.
cob : Library not found : -lsqlnet
Make : fatal error : command failed for target "<Prog name> "
I checked the environment for LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to /usr/ccs/bin:${PATH} also included the $ORACLE_HOME/lib and $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib paths to the above variable. Still it returns the same problem.
Can any one help me solving this problem as it is very critical.
Regards,

Finally ot it to compile successfully by creating a new Makefile in the SpaceTriangle directory with those make commands which had been phonied out in the original Makefile in the 12_Stage3D directory which contains the SpaceTriangle directory. Of course I had to make four changes to the path references when it referred to files in the SpaceTriangle directory.
I also had to copy the header files AGAL_internal.h and AGAL.h into the SpaceTriangle directory.
After that I ran the newly created Makefile in the SpaceTriangle directory, and it compiled perfectly (no errors, no warnings, and the expected output). BUT, the resulting swf, SpaceTriangle.swf, would not run in Flash Player Debugger Version 11.6.602.167 (11.6). Here's the error message from the Flash Player Debugger:

[SOLVED] Enabling debug for ath9k in compat-drivers-patched from AUR

Wireless card: TP-LINK TL-WN951N. lspci says that it is an Atheros AR5416 adapter [AR5008].
Some background: I'm having the same issues as the OP in this thread, which references this bug report. The problem is that I get a 2000 ms ping every 30 seconds. So 2 seconds of inactivity every 30 seconds. I have the same wireless PCI card, as well. I need to fix this, because it's making online gaming impossible. I should also note that the card is working just fine in Windows 8, however. I am using net-auto-wireless. I have tried using wicd, enabling ath9k's nohwcrypt option, toggling the card's power save, installing the latest compat-drivers-patched from the AUR, toggling different settings in my motherboard's BIOS, and removing the antennae from the card. But nothing has made a significant difference.
I think I'm really close now. I just have to disable ANI. But in order to do that, it seems that I need to enable debugging for ath9k. But this means that I need to either recompile a custom kernel, or somehow enable debug for ath9k in compat-drivers-patched from the AUR. I'd prefer the latter, as that means that I will have a more bleeding-edge driver. That, and I won't have to touch the kernel as much. What I want is described on this page. But it seems too complicated to me. Please let me explain.
I've installed things from the AUR before, as mentioned above, and have properly configured my makepkg.conf for my system. So I'd like to use the CFLAGS and such that I've set. I don't understand how everything works in the PKGBUILD; I don't have much experience with sed and awk and regular expressions, and haven't done much shell scripting at all. It seems that at some point in the PKGBUILD, I need to enable debugging for ath9k before it is compiled. Apparently on the last page I linked to, I need to add:
export CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUGFS=y
to some config.mk file. I can only get access to the config.mk file after I install the package with pacman. I've tried adding those lines to my /etc/profile file, and checked, after a reboot, with "set", that those variables are indeed set. But the thing is, with these variables set in /etc/profile, when I run makepkg, makepkg fails with an error 2. I tried again and got the same error. I removed those lines from my /etc/profile, rebooted, tried makepkg again, and everything worked. So putting those lines in my /etc/profile is not the solution, and I feel like I'm doing something very stupid. What am I doing wrong?
I should also note that I've tried to read the wiki page on compiling a custom kernel using ABS, but it seems to just say "get your custom configuration files" and then just continue (so it assumes that I should already be familiar with the configuration part). The PKGBUILD and Creating Packages wiki pages also seem to be a little... too advanced for me at this point in time.
So how do I enable debugging for ath9k in compat-drivers-patched from the AUR? I'd prefer to stick with only editing the PKGBUILD and using makepkg, if possible.
I've really tried to search the web and the arch forums on how to fix this problem myself, but alas, it seems that I need help this time. I greatly appreciate your time for reading my long post.
UPDATE:
I've made a lot of progress. I ended up removing the AUR package with pacman by invoking "pacman -Rsn compat-drivers-patched".
Instructions for [almost] success: First, download compat-drivers-patched from AUR. Then move it to the "builds" directory (or "local", if using ABS). Extract the tarball. After the new directory is created, cd into it. Now here's the important part: run
$ makepkg -so
Then cd into src, cd into the directory inside src, then edit the config.mk file. Make sure these lines are uncommented (or created, if not already there):
export CONFIG_CFG80211_DEBUGFS=y
export CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS=y
export CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUGFS=y
(source)
Now run "cd ../.." to go back up two directories. Now run:
$ makepkg -e
# pacman -U <file that was produced>
And I ran "mkinitcpio -p linux" just in case, but I'm not sure if that is necessary at all. I'm... not touching the kernel, right?
Now I ran:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/disable_ani
But bash would say that the file or directory doesn't exist. Even if I prepend it with "sudo", I get the same results. I was only able to get the command to work if I logged in as root. I even put the line in my /etc/profile. The 2000 ms ping every 30 seconds is now GONE. HOWEVER! If I reboot and log in as a normal user, the problem is there again. If I reboot and log in as root, the problem is gone. If I then log out and then log back in as a normal user, the problem does not come back.
So really, I can avoid the problem if I first log in as root, log out, and then log back in as a normal user. But this is a great inconvenience. I would much prefer if I could just log in as a normal user right after boot, and have everything working.
Now, how do I get the command to automatically run at boot as root (without me having to log in as root), and work?
UPDATE 2:
I got it working. Putting the line in /etc/profile is not the solution. I created a custom systemd .service file.
Put this into /etc/systemd/service (name it "disable_ani.service"):
EDIT: Wow. I made a glaring typo here. It should be /etc/systemd/system/disable_ani.service
[Unit]
Description=disable_ani
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/bin/sh -c "echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/disable_ani"
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Then make sure to "sudo chmod 755 /etc/systemd/service/disable_ani.service", since root owns this file.
Then run "sudo systemctl enable disable_ani.service".
EDIT: It has been brought to my attention that there is a much simpler way than creating a custom service.
Using a tmpfile:
/etc/tmpfiles.d/disable_ani.conf
w /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath9k/disable_ani - - - - 1
Done.
Now ANI is persistently disabled between boots, even if I log in as a normal user right after boot.
Thanks for reading.

So zsh is telling you that the command didn't work, since it claims that there is no such file or directory. I had a lot of trouble with getting the echo command to work, as well. I found that if out of these lines:
export CONFIG_CFG80211_DEBUGFS=y
export CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS=y
export CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUG=y
export CONFIG_ATH9K_DEBUGFS=y
If the first and second line above were not uncommented in the config.mk file, I couldn't leave the last line above uncommented as well, or else makepkg would fail and give me an error. So originally I had only the 3rd and 4th lines above uncommented/inserted in my config.mk. With that configuration, I could not get the echo command to work, no matter what. Have you uncommented or inserted all of the above 5 lines into your config.mk?
After making sure all of the above 5 lines were in my config.mk, the echo command still didn't work, even if I preceded the command with sudo, or entered a su session. Bash would tell me that there was no such file or directory. I found that if I actually logged out of my normal user, and then logged back into the computer as root, the command would work. If your shell does not give you any feedback (particularly, "no such file or directory"), then the command worked. In order to get the command to run every time the computer boots, I used a systemd service, so that the command is issued as root. For some reason, it doesn't work if you put the command into /etc/profile.
Oh, and it would probably be helpful to mention that for the compat-drivers-patched package from the AUR, the PKGBUILD checks to see what your _selected_drivers variable is before compilation. If you set _selected_drivers=ath9k, your compile times will be much shorter.

[SOLVED] Error compiling compat-wireless

Bugged by permanent connection drops with ath9k, I want to try out compat-wireless. Got compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7 from here. The driver-select script mentioned on the website is not present in the source, and the included readme makes no mention of it.
When I run "make", it aborts with following error:
[user@arch compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7]$ make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.31-ARCH/build M=/home/user/compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7 modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.31-ARCH'
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `/home/user/compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7/drivers/misc/eeprom/max6875.c', needed by `/home/user/compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7/drivers/misc/eeprom/max6875.o'. Stop.

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.31-ARCH'
make: *** [modules] Error 2
The PKBUILD in Aur seems to have a typo and tries to install kernel26<=2.6.31 as a dependency, however since I do not understand what else it does I am not overly confident to just remove the dependency line in question.
Anyone else got compat-wireless to compile?

Hmm, not overly enthusiastic to search for windows drivers at the moment... The problem got worse recently, before I just had a hotkey for "netcfg2 -r", now the module has to be unloaded/loaded also...
However, just got a "Mission Accomplished" moment by changing wpa mode in the router config to "wpa2 only" (before: auto wpa/wpa2), no connection drops anymore for an unusual long period of time... Also, copying large files over the network would force it to break before, which is not happening now.
But if this indeed fixes anything is still too early to say.
edit: surfing, torrent running, copying 15gb from a network disk and no connection drop - this is unheard of so far. the only thing why I remain suspicious, there is no one else home, so maybe it will fail again when more people use the network. don't know what speed is considered "standard", I had ~2,7Mb/sec copying files.
edit II: Crap. The connection was still dropping, but reconnected automatically. Before the connection was just broken, without any output in dmesg, and did not come up again by itself. That's where I'm back now.

Please help me...

I don't remember where on OTN I found this, but if you haven't already, you need to install binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13.i386.rpm. Also, make sure you have K shell installed, make a symbolic link (ln -s /sbin/fuser /bin/fuser), have /usr/bin as the first entry in your $PATH. All of the above should be stated on the first 'popup window' during the install.

Error message: Missing PDF maker files in Word 2007

OK, I am beyond frustrated. I have had nothing but trouble with Windows Vista and Adobe Acrobat. Please help!!!
What happens: first, the pdf addin for Word 2007 suddenly becomes disabled, for no apparent reason. Forget about trying to re-enable it through the Add-Ins menu, because Word tells me that the "connected state of Office Add-Ins registered in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE cannot be changed". This is a problem for me, because I use a special font (Vietnamese) that sometimes gets corrupted when running pdf maker. The only consistent way I have found to avoid this problem is to run the pdf maker as "Quick PDF" and as far as I can see that option is only available through the pdf addin in Word, I have never been able to find it when I open the Acrobat program and create a pdf from there.
Second problem: shortly after the pdf addin becomes disabled, my Acrobat program loses the ability to create pdfs altogether. I get the error message "Missing PDF maker files". Yes, I have tried repairing the installation and re-starting my computer per the instructions given. It doesn't fix the problem. I also tried looking in the Knowledge Database on this website, but it appears that the instructions they have to fix the problem there are for earlier versions of Word, not 2007, because my version of word does not look like the version of Word in their little videos.
This is the second time this has happened. The first time I resolved the problem by a) re-installing Acrobat, which is a pain because it involves calling Adobe and wading through their customer service to get a new installation number, and b) paying a computer repair service to dig deep into the guts of my computer and convince it to change the Office Add-ins to allow the pdf addin again. It worked for about 6 months, and now I have the same problem again. For some reason Vista is spontaneously disabling Acrobat.
I simply cannot deal with this every few months. We all know that Vista is a crappy program, but I run a business and I need a program that works with whatever crappy program Microsoft puts out. Please, can anyone give me suggestions about how to re-enable these functions when Vista disables them?
Thanks in advance!

[SOLVED] Pacman "config file could not be read" error during Arch ins

I've been attempting to get Arch setup for a while now, and after having some trouble with partitions, my wireless connecting, and setting up repos and mirrors, which the Wiki helped me solve, I've hit a bigger bump. While updating the system using pacman as the Beginners Guide says to do, I get errors when I try to continue the update process as follows :
btw: I'm typing this on a laptop next to my computer

Glad you got it working.
I'm not sure what happened in your install but I just finished using an old 2007.08 iso and pacman first starts out with /etc/pacman.d/core, etc/pacman.d/extra, /etc/pacman.d/community ... etc., but I never had your problem when I did the #pacman -Syu after initial install reboot. The pacman update removes the above mentioned repos and replaces them with a single /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist. You must have messed up an initial config file somehow as I couldn't get the same errors you got. It looks like you had your /etc/pacman.conf file messed up somehow and when you pointed it to the mirrorlist it could finally work properly. I'll just include my /etc/pacman.conf file and /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist so you can compare. NB* these are from my x86_64 so for 32 bit machines i686 would replace x86_64 in the files.

Iam trying to import a short video in final cut express and I'm getting this error... File Error: 1 file(s) recognized. 0 access denied, 1 unknown. How do I solve this problem? The video is on my desktop and it's an mpg file. Please help me

Get a copy of MPEG Streamclip and convert your MPG file to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC). In FCE, select one of the setups that uses AIC that best matches your clip (say, 1920x1080i60). Create a new sequence, then import the converted file.
Note that if your MPG file is actually MPEG2 you will also need the QuickTime MPEG2 Component in addition to MPEG Streamclip.
What was the source of the MPG file? How about if you open it in QuickTime, then do Window > Show Movie Inspector. Tell us what it says for codec/compression, frame size & frame rate.

AppleScript error on Tiger only: "can't make file into type alias"

Hi,
I'm successfully using this smart TextWrangler applescript from this webpage for opening files on the same folder as the current document:
http://blog.ampli.fi/textwrangler-open-file-from-directory-of-current-file/
It works fine on Mountain Lion.
However, when I try it on Tiger 10.4.11, this error dialog appears: "TextWrangler got an error: Can't make [file] into type alias".
The script basically gets the path of the current document in TextWrangler and posts a file chooser on such path.
I guess these are the lines that Tiger doesn't like:
set current_path to POSIX path of current_file
set new_file to choose file default location (current_path) with multiple selections allowed
open new_file
After googling for the error "can't make [] into type alias", I tried to change such lines to:
set current_path to (POSIX path of (current_file as alias))
set new_file to choose file default location (current_path) with multiple selections allowed
open new_file
But, however, the same error remains.
Do you have any idea on how could this work?
Thanks!

wow, 10.4...
try this:
set current_path to current_file
set new_file to choose file default location (current_path) with multiple selections allowed
open new_file
I'm not certain when the standard applescript dialogs were updated to accept posix paths, but it may have been 10.5.
