[solved]gnutls: requires readline =6.0

So I take it I can't update the 9 new packages on my system because it is requiring something from testing.

On my one machine I commented out all the mirrors except the official archlinux.org one and it updated quite fine.  My other machine still hasn't got it yet though.

  • [Solved] ping requires root privilages but only if OS run from RAM

    I have an odd situation where I can use ping as a regular user from openbox's autostart if I run the OS from storage disks but not if I load the OS into RAM. It only works for a regular user with the OS loaded to RAM when I set the sticky bit.
    Can this be a timing problem with systemd not activating a required service in time?

    Yep! That's it exactly. I create a root file system archive to speed the loading into RAM. See the exact code below:
    sudo tar -vzcf /rootfs.tar.gz / --exclude={/rootfs.tar.gz,/boot/*,/var/cache/pacman/pkg/*,/dev/*,/proc/*,/sys/*,/tmp/*,/run/*,/mnt/*,/media/*,/lost+found}
    Adding the --xattrs option to tar solved it.

  • [SOLVED]: gnutls not found after LXDE install attempt

    After issuing the following command as root:
    # pacman -S lxde
    many console messages ensue, among them:
    error: failed retrieving file 'gnutls-2.8.6-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz' from mirror.rit.edu : Not Found
    This message is repeated for each of the other five mirrors in my list.
    All the other packages seem to have been retrieved all right.
    At the end of the process, the following messages appear:
    warning: failed to retrieve some files from extra
    error: failed to commit transaction (Not Found)
    Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
    I tried
    # pacman -S gnutls
    and got the same results as above, with the same version number in the error message, and the same three messages at the end.
    I searched for gnutls in the package database, and found gnutls to be at version 2.10.4-1 .
    I have searched the Arch wiki, forums, and beginner's guide for this issue, with no success, and have tried Googling the Web with various combinations of the words arch, lxde, gnutls, and "not found", also with no success.
    This is my first attempt at installing Arch, but not my first experience with Linux.  All has gone well up until now; the Arch CLI environment has been functioning well.

  • [SOLVED]XFCE requires xorg.conf

    Hi all,
    I was using Zenwalk Linux since 4 years, and made my mind to install Arch Linux. I installed it using the help of Installation Guide. Thanks to the Arch Linux team for providing such a nice descriptive and useful forum through which any newbie can migrate to Arch Linux easily.
    I thought of installing XFCE as my Desktop environment as I was using the same previously. I installed LXDM login manager, and the X session I edited to start up with XFCE.
    With the login to init 5, I got the error as "Frequency Out of Range" and the screen went blank. Then somehow, I had the xorg.conf and xorg.conf-vesa file of my older Zenwalk System. I copied it to /etc/X11 directory and rebooted to solve the problem.
    I dont know whether xorg.conf is needed or not. 'lspci' noted my video driver as
    01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. VT8375 [ProSavage8 KM266/KL266]
    I have installed savage-dri and xf86-video-savage from Arch Repo.
    I thought of sharing the same so that it might be helpful to someone (or else, if someone can give a better solution, it will be helpful for me too).
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not surprised that an old card would require an xorg.conf file to work correctly. Do you mean that another desktop environment from the Arch repos can work on your system without an xorg.conf? And only XFCE results in an error? Then that would be weird.

    :: nvidia: requires linux<3.2
    I was going to upgrade the kernel, going to init 1 and compiling the nvidia.ko from source.
    How do I do it?
    I got the same problem, and my solution was:
    1) Use pacman -U to install nvidia-290.10-2 and nvidia-utils-290.10-1 (downloaded directly from a mirror). This will force a kernel upgrade.
    2) Use pacman -Syu to make entire system up-to-date
    3) Use pacman -R nvidia to remove this package
    4) Through ABS get the PKGBUILD of nvidia-utils version 290.10 and change the version to 285.05.09
    4a) You must also change the md5sum number, for i686 it's 2d469a90abef50320f548cfa8085e3a0
    4b) Use makepkg to build the package, and install both created packages (nvidia-utils and opencl-nvidia)
    5) Through ABS get the PKGBUILD of nvidia version 290.10 and change the version to 285.05.09 and pkgrel from 1 to 3.
    5a) You must also change the md5sum number, for i686 it's 2d469a90abef50320f548cfa8085e3a0
    5b) Use makepkg to build the package, and install created package nvidia
    6) Edit /etc/pacman.conf add opencl-nvidia to the ignore list
    7) Reboot and enjoy
    Hope this works for you too.
    Ps: Just for the record, I really hate nvidia for not supporting my graphic card anymore...

  • [SOLVED] Help required to boot fresh installation. New to GPT.

    Hi all,
    I have been using Gnu/Linux since 1998 and Arch since 2007.
    I stopped playing the pacman gamble game and had left my system for a few months between updates.  I reached a state where I thought it was easier to reinstall and decided to back up my home dir and simplify my partitions back to a single / and just /tmp, /var and /home on separate drives.  Also it seemed a good time to switch to GPT and use Syslinux boot loader.
    I have followed the Official and Beginner's Installation instructions but cannot boot into my newly installed system.  I have used /dev/ designations and UUID designations in my syslinux.cfg but when I try to boot into the new system I either get errors saying my root is a raid member or there is no /sbin/init found.
    I have then tried repartitioning using standard MBR partitions but get Missing OS errors.  Is there a simple path I should follow?
    I am using the following drives......
    /dev/sdb        Kingston 30GB SSD
    /dev/sdb1      /
    /dev/sda        Western Digital 160GB
    /dev/sda1      /tmp
    /dev/sda2      /var
    /dev/sda3      SWAP
    /dev/sda4      /home
    /dev/sdc        Seagate 2TB
    /dev/sdc1      RAID Member
    /dev/sdd        Western Digital 2TB
    /dev/sdd1      RAID Member
    /dev/sde        Western Digital 1TB
    /dev/sde1      RAID Member
    /dev/sdf         Samsung 1TB
    /dev/sdf1       RAID Member
    I have installed Mint 14 and Neptune 3 on the same drives with no issues but I want to keep using Arch.  I am at a loss for what to do next.
    I am considering removing all drives except the 30GB SSD and the 160GB /tmp,/var,SWAP,/home drive and trying again.
    Can any one hold my hand through this..... please?!  I really do not want to drop Arch as it is for me *the* Linux distro.
    Honestly though I would appreciate any help.  I am going slightly mad!
    Diesel1.
    I apologise now for any lack of info but it is late and I need sleep.

    Looking into your hd setup, i would recommend: GPT + SYSLINUX

    You say you already tried this setup and couldn't boot it, but it is as easy as it gets. I must say that arch is a "do it yourself distro", so we are not supposed to hold your hand. BUT, we can help you understand what you did wrong, if you missed something, etc.
    If you are able to, you can post the steps you made in your attempt to install arch, and then someone will help you with that!
    REMEMBER, you should always read the wikis and search the forum to see if anyone gets the same errors as you before posting.
    Thanks for the reply.  It is kind of you to 'help me understand' what I did wrong!
    I tried again with a different partition set-up and re-read the wikis thoroughly.  This time it has worked and I am now booted into my GPT+SYSLINUX Arch system.
    From what I can see I needed a separate /boot partition on the same disk (30GB SSD) as the / partition. D'oh! It is the simple things that seem to trip me up.
    Anyhow, thanks again,

    Why? Have you forgotten to do your coursework and you'll get thrown off your course if you don't hand it in today?
    What makes you believe that your request for help is more important than someone else who has requested help? It's very rude to assume you are more important than somebody else, and I'm sure they would like an answer to their issue as soon as they can get one too, but they've generally been polite and not demanded that it is urgent.
    Also, you assume that people giving answers are all sitting here just waiting to answer your question for you. That's not so. We're all volunteers with our own jobs to do. How dare you presume to demand our attention with urgency.
    If you want help and you want it answering quickly you simply just put your issue forward and provide as much valuable information as possible.
    Looking at your post you haven't told us what database version you are using, you haven't provided any create table DDL's and insert statements to populate that with sample data, and you haven't even shown us that you've had a go at doing something yourself.
    You will find if you post on here demanding your post is urgent then most people will just ignore it, some will tell you to get lost, and some will explain to you why you shouldn't post "urgent" requests. Occasionally you may find somebody who's got nothing better to do who will actually provide you with an answer, but you really are limiting your options by not asking properly.

  • [SOLVED] ndiswrapper requires manual install

    Hi all,
    For some time now I found that, while the ndiswrapper package is up to date in the repository, pacman -S ndiswrapper and variants seem to sync to a less recent version of the package. Manual downloading the package from the archlinux website works, so it's a problem that can be bypassed. But of course, I'm curious what's going on.
    I checked /etc/pacman.conf, and there's no entry of ndiswrapper there, so I don't think I accidentally fudged anything?
    Thanks.

    Another example of the problem:

    After manual upgrade of rxvt-unicode, pacman -Syyu gives
