[solved] --- help setup static ip
Hi, can someone help me setup static ip instead of using dhcp.
dhcp works fine, but I'm having a hard time with static ips.
I have 3 computers on the network, do all of them need to be converted to static?
Is there something in the router that I need to change?
Here is the bit from my rc.conf
eth0="eth0 192.168.1.80 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255"
#eth0="dhcp"
#wlan0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 !wlan0)
# Routes to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each route then list in ROUTES
# - prefix an entry in ROUTES with a ! to disable it
gateway="default gw 192.168.1.1"
ROUTES=(!gateway)
thank you

you can start removing ! from the eth0 interface and from gateway. ! means that you disable it

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

[SOLVED] Help needed with iptables rule with unusual setup
Hi I recently setup hostapd on my netbook so I could share a wireless network with my phone and I'm having trouble because my netbook is also hosting a Jetty sever (Subsonic media streamer).
My setup is as follows
[CABLE MODEM]===[WIRED ROUTER]=====[NETBOOK] ))))) [PHONE]
The wired router provides the DHCP server.
On my netbook I created a (br0) bridge between eth0 and wlan0 and started hostapd. That all works fine when I'm not trying to host my Jetty server on my netbook.
The netbook has the IP 192.168.0.8
The phone has the IP 192.168.0.6
I do not want to give the Jetty server root permissions just so it can run on port 80. So instead I start it instead on port 4040 and then use a iptables rule to redirect connections to port 80 to port 4040.
Before I setup hostapd on machine I used to use the following.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 4040
However when I'm using hostapd and try to access websites on my phone its web browser is ALWAYS REDIRECTED to my jetty server. I'm not really surprised at this as the rule I mentioned above is for any destination or any source.
I tried this rule:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d localhost -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 4040
This didn't work. On my phone I could access websites as expected but nobody (tried external from network and internally) could access the jetty server on port 80. Does anyone know why this rule doesn't work?
I tried this rule:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING \! -s 192.168.0.6 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 4040
This rule worked (Redirect port 4040 connections to port 80 if the connection isn't from my phone). But this is NOT very good at all as it means I would need a separate rule for every wireless device that connected to my netbook (via hostapd). Also if the IP address of my phone ever changes this rule becomes useless too!
Does anyone have any ideas?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Last edited by delcypher (2010-07-24 20:17:35)Well looks like I fixed my own problem.
I added a LOG target in the PREROUTING chain like so
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j LOG --log-prefix 'cheesy-redirect'
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 80
When I looked at /var/logs/everything I noticed this.
dan-netbook kernel: cheesy-redirectIN=br0 OUT= PHYSIN=eth0 MAC=00:26:18:73:ea:28:00:09:5b:5d:0a:33:08:00 SRC=178.102.41.92 DST=192.168.0.3 LEN=52 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=46 ID=51411 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=48219 DPT=80 WINDOW=49640 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0
The destination is 192.168.0.3 ! Which is very very weird. This the IP address I had told my router to give my eth0 card in the past when I wasn't using a network bridge (br0). I was connected to the network using 192.168.0.8 on br0. The eth0 interface wasn't assigned an IP address.
192.168.0.3 was also the IP address I setup for static port forwarding (which I forgot about) so when I accessed my jetty server from outside my network all packets would of been forwarded to 192.168.0.3
I should never of received those packets as I was 192.168.0.8 not 192.168.0.3 at the time of logging so how I even received these packets is a mystery to me. Maybe the router software is buggy
Fixing was pretty straight forward I changed the port forward to go to 192.168.0.8 and then tried connecting to the jetty server externally and noted in the log
cheesy-redirectIN=br0 OUT= PHYSIN=eth0 MAC=00:25:d3:46:4d:0d:00:09:5b:5d:0a:33:08:00 SRC=178.102.41.92 DST=192.168.0.8 LEN=52 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=46 ID=65326 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=33597 DPT=80 WINDOW=49640 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0
So the correct redirect rule is
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d 192.168.0.8 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 80
which works nicely
One last question though. Does anyone know how I can use a hostname rather than 192.168.0.8 which points to whatever the IP address of br0 is set to? localhost points to 127.0.0.1 so that doesn't work. -
[SOLVED] Question about network setup static and dynamic
I am trying to set up an Arch install on my other pc. I have used Ubuntu and then Linux Mint for a year+ and Arch has always intrigued me so I am attempting to install it now. I do consider myself a pretty advanced computer user/programmer but computer networking has always confused me a little. I'm not quite understanding whether I setup my network with a static or dynamic ip. This is what I know
I have a static ip assigned to me by my ISP but I do have a router so it assigns me a different internal ip. Does that make my ip dynamic?
Last edited by c26zwj (2013-03-14 18:24:35)If your ISP assigns a static IP then your IP in the internet is static. If you have a different internal IP then your router is running a DHCP server and performing network address translation. Your IP on the LAN is dynamic (unless you configure your router to assign static IPs, which can be useful if you want to forward ports to a specific computer). You most likely want to use DHCP to obtain a dynamic internal IP when you connect. The external IP is beyond your control (it is managed by the ISP and assigned to the router) so you do not need to worry about it.

[SOLVED] Help with going from dhcp to static ip
So right now I'm using dhcp on my arch box, but for personal reasons (file server, print server, etc...) I'd like to assign a static ip to the machine.
I've noticed that when I get a ip via dhcp, there are different broadcast ips, and frankly, I'm just getting confused. I was wondering if there was a way (probably) to setup a static ip from setting that are retrieved via dhcp.
I know that there's a wiki page as to how to set up a static ip, but there are still some things that I don't understand, so I'd like to know what information I'd need to get from dhcp in order to set up a static ip (essentially the same ip, but it would remain the same)
I will blatantly admit that networking is not one of my strong suites...
Last edited by ZeroTruths (2009-09-03 01:20:29)When you have a dhcp address, use ifconfig to identify the address, broadcast address, and subnet mask, and use route to identify your default gateway. All these should be added to the rc.conf NETWORKING section - an example is provided. Make a note of the nameserver address that was automatically added to /etc/resolv.conf under dhcp - it should remain there.
Before you do all that, you may have the option of using a dhcp fixed lease instead i.e. continue to use dhcp, but configure it to provide the same address to your arch box every time. That would depend on the capabilities of the system that provides the dhcp service. -

I based my xorg.conf on this link, mainly, which is where the second device, screen, etc sections came from. -
[Solved] help needed with wireless setup (ralink 2860 driver)
Hi,
I'm new to Arch so please be gentle ;-)
I recently upgraded hoping to find improved support for my wireless. I now find that the kernel recognises and loads the appropriate module:
[root@akoya ~]# uname -a
Linux akoya 2.6.29-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 8 12:47:56 UTC 2009 i686 Pentium(R)
[root@akoya ~]# lspci | grep Net
05:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2860
[root@akoya ~]# lsmod | grep 2860
rt2860sta 514808 1
I checked over the kernel source and the rt2680sta module is the code from ralink cleaned up for the 2.6.29 kernel. (I tried building the ralink release but it needs patching for 2.6.29)
However getting the thing to connect using WPA is another thing altogether
[root@akoya ~]# ifconfig ra0 up
[root@akoya ~]# wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i ra0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
[root@akoya ~]# dhcpcd ra0
ra0: dhcpcd 4.0.12 starting
ra0: waiting for carrier
ra0: timed out
I'm not even sure if iwconfig is communicating with this driver (though I can find my router using "iwlist ra0 scan"):
[root@akoya ~]# iwconfig ra0 essid "sodor"
[root@akoya ~]# iwconfig
ra0 RT2860 Wireless ESSID:"" Nickname:"RT2860STA"
Mode:Auto Frequency=2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:21:91:FE:DA:97
And if I try to configure using wicd I see the following log when trying to connect to the wireless:

It is driving me crazy being tied to a cable so I'd really like to get this working... but I'm really not sure what to try. Do I need to rebuild wpa_supplicant? If so is there a package-based way of doing that in arch?
Thanks in advance.

OK... to answer my own questions ...
two questions:
1. Does this mean support for the ralink driver is included by default or *not* included by default?
It seems it means *not*
2. If I uncomment this line then makepkg refuses to build the package because the config file's md5 is no longer valid. How then am I *meant* to make modifications to the build configuration?
right or wrong I used makepkg -g to generate checksums for my modified config file and pasted these into PKGBUILD. It then builds happily. After installing I can run wpa_supplicant with no args and confirm ralink is in the list of drivers. Excellent. But still no success.
Two things I have noticed:
1. wicd places quotes "" around my pre-shared key. If I run wpa_supplicant from the command line and use the conf file created by wicd it reports the PSK as being unparsable. If I remove the quotes then the file is parsed correctly.
2. It doesn't solve my problem :-( -
(Solved)Help setting up ALSA to mix multiple sources to one output
Hey everyone,
I've been putting off fixing this for a while, since getting the sound working was giving me trouble from the beginning. I'm still a bit of a noob when it comes to configuring ALSA and how the system works in general, so sorry if I miss something obvious or need something explained to me >.> As it has been I can only output audio with one program at a time, and I'd like to fix that now. Some quick research told me that I should use dmix, and adding this to /etc/asound.comf would enable it:
pcm.dsp {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix"
And I can verify that this pcm works with speaker-test -Dpcm.dsp -c 2. However, I'm not sure that programs are actually using it, since I still can't use audio with more than one program. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be listed in the output of aplay -L, but it isn't there.
There's another issue I noticed in my experiments. To get the sound working before, I had to override pcm.default to type hw, card 0, device 0. In my research and fiddling around, I noticed that in alsa.conf card 0 and device 0 are set to the defaults, and those are the ones I need to use. However, I can't remove the override since the default pcm generated by default.conf doesn't work for some reason. Also, this overridden default won't show up in aplay -L's output, or as an option in programs that have a similar list of pcm's as output device options (like vlc, or kmix).
Sorry if this sounds weird, I'm still not 100% sure what is going on here. Let me know if you need more info from me, need the output from some program, etc.
Edit: Well I found a solution. This in asound.conf:
pcm.!display {
type plug
slave.pcm "dmix"
hint {
show on
description "dmix default"
Sets the dmix pcm as default, and shows it with a description. Still don't know why the generated default pcm doesn't work, but I guess it doesn't matter.

Hi!
I`m really frustrated... I never thought that installing printer can be such a paint in the rear...
Ok, now back to the point:
I`m trying to set up my Deskjet 930c on 32 bit Arch through usb. I did everything that Wiki says: installed
cups ghostscript gsfonts hplip and net-snmp
I loaded the module
modprobe usblp
and i see the that the printer is connected alright
[andy@andy ~]$ dmesg
usb 6-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3
usb 6-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usblp1: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 0 alt 1 proto 2 vid 0x03F0 pid 0x1204
I added the cups and usblp to rc.conf to make sure it is being loaded on startup. I rebooted, and then opened http://localhost:631 in firefox. It allows me to setup the printer, but when it comes to printing the test page, adding users or removing printers i get a Firefox message:
Port Restricted for Security Reasons
This address uses a network port which is normally used for purposes other than Web browsing. Firefox has canceled the request for your protection.
The requested address specified a port (e.g. "mozilla.org:80" for port 80 on mozilla.org) normally used for purposes other than Web browsing. The browser has canceled the request for your protection and security.
When i run gnome-cups-manager i see an error in terminal:
** (gnome-cups-manager:13143): WARNING **: IPP request failed with status 1030
, and when trying to print a test page i get an error:
Ready: /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip-hplip failed
So i`ve ran
hp-setup
and setup my printer. I can than print a test page.
But when it comes to printing by a usual user, the "print" button in all applications is grayed out/inactive.
Also hp-toolbox is segfaulting all the time...
Also, running a system-config-printer says:
There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'server-error-service-unavailable'.
The funny thing is... The only way to print something is to print it to a .pdf file first, and than printing that file.
Any help, please?...

Hi,
I am trying to setup my Internet connection on my linksys E1200 router using static IP settings below -
I am getting following error when trying to do this-
Can someone please help.
These are the IP settings provided to me and are configured on my laptop to connect to my ISP as well.
Thanks,
Sudeep.This disadvantages the native firmware.
From my own experience I would say that communication with the customer support on the firmware does not give results. One answer - not supported! To change this, they did not seem to want.
http://homecommunity.cisco.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/Router-e1200-PPPoE-Static-Address-problem/m-p/499...
So, I see only one solution - wait for the third-party firmware for this product, such as DD-WRT, Tomato(USB), MirWifi (?), OpenWrt. The experience of installing them on a previous version of the router (WRT series), I can say that after the flash working without problems. Сisco with their advertised functionality and support is really not up to the functionality inherent in third-party firmware. At least in the domestic market.
It is very bad. This is a serious company would focus more on support. All the more so because there are alternatives! -

In the user account I have added the email address.
Im guesing I have to make the mail account somewhere in the server settings but I cant find anything. If turn off SSL in the mail settings I at least get a response from the server:

There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Verify the settings for account “OS X Server” or try again.
The server returned the error: The connection to the server “myserver.local” on port 143 failed (error 49: Can't assign requested address) -
Netcfg will not setup static IP with media disconnected
The title says it all. If I don't physically have my network cable plugged in, setting a network profile with a static IP fails. Also, there doesn't appear to be a setting for subnet mask.
Please help, without this functionality I'm stuck back using Windows with netsh scripts, which I'm really trying to get away from.Ok, it's not as bad as I thought. At least once you have the static set, if the media is temporarily disconnected, it does't drop the static setup like networkmanager does. I think I can live with this setup, although it would be nice if you could set the static ignoring the carrier signal.

[SOLVED] Help Setting up rEFInd
Hello,
I am trying to setup rEFInd to work with kernels I have installed (core and mainline). I am getting error Error: Not Found While Loading vmllinuz-linux. Here is some back ground.

My understanding is refind-efi 0.6.5 and above can detect kernel files in /boot and doesn't require it to be renamed with extension .efi. Currently, I am able to boot through /boot/efi/EFI/arch but that shouldn't be required anymore and should be safe to remove once I can get refind to work. What am I doing wrong in refind.conf that it isn't able to find vmlinuz-linux.

Thanks.
UPDATE:- Reading and tinkering solved all my confusions. More details are in this thread.

/boot/efi/EFI/refind/refind.conf
# refind.conf
# Configuration file for the rEFInd boot menu
# Timeout in seconds for the main menu screen. Setting the timeout to 0
# disables automatic booting (i.e., no timeout).
timeout 3
# Hide user interface elements for personal preference or to increase
# security:
# banner - the rEFInd title banner (built-in or loaded via "banner")
# label - boot option text label in the menu
# singleuser - remove the submenu options to boot Mac OS X in single-user
# or verbose modes; affects ONLY MacOS X
# safemode - remove the submenu option to boot Mac OS X in "safe mode"
# hwtest - the submenu option to run Apple's hardware test
# arrows - scroll arrows on the OS selection tag line
# hints - brief command summary in the menu
# editor - the options editor (+, F2, or Insert on boot options menu)
# all - all of the above
# Default is none of these (all elements active)
#hideui singleuser
#hideui all
# Set the name of a subdirectory in which icons are stored. Icons must
# have the same names they have in the standard directory. The directory
# name is specified relative to the main rEFInd binary's directory. If
# an icon can't be found in the specified directory, an attempt is made
# to load it from the default directory; thus, you can replace just some
# icons in your own directory and rely on the default for others.
# Default is "icons".
#icons_dir myicons
# Use a custom title banner instead of the rEFInd icon and name. The file
# path is relative to the directory where refind.efi is located. The color
# in the top left corner of the image is used as the background color
# for the menu screens. Currently uncompressed BMP images with color
# depths of 24, 8, 4 or 1 bits are supported, as well as PNG images.
#banner hostname.bmp
#banner mybanner.png
# Custom images for the selection background. There is a big one (144 x 144)
# for the OS icons, and a small one (64 x 64) for the function icons in the
# second row. If only a small image is given, that one is also used for
# the big icons by stretching it in the middle. If only a big one is given,
# the built-in default will be used for the small icons.
# Like the banner option above, these options take a filename of an
# uncompressed BMP image file with a color depth of 24, 8, 4, or 1 bits,
# or a PNG image. The PNG format is required if you need transparency
# support (to let you "see through" to a full-screen banner).
#selection_big selection-big.bmp
#selection_small selection-small.bmp
# Set the font to be used for all textual displays in graphics mode.
# The font must be a PNG file with alpha channel transparency. It must
# contain ASCII characters 32-126 (space through tilde), inclusive, plus
# a glyph to be displayed in place of characters outside of this range,
# for a total of 96 glyphs. Only monospaced fonts are supported. Fonts
# may be of any size, although large fonts can produce display
# irregularities.
# The default is rEFInd's built-in font, Luxi Mono Regular 12 point.
#font myfont.png
# Use text mode only. When enabled, this option forces rEFInd into text mode.
# Passing this option a "0" value causes graphics mode to be used. Pasing
# it no value or any non-0 value causes text mode to be used.
# Default is to use graphics mode.
#textonly
textonly
# Set the EFI text mode to be used for textual displays. This option
# takes a single digit that refers to a mode number. Mode 0 is normally
# 80x25, 1 is sometimes 80x50, and higher numbers are system-specific
# modes. Mode 1024 is a special code that tells rEFInd to not set the
# text mode; it uses whatever was in use when the program was launched.
# If you specify an invalid mode, rEFInd pauses during boot to inform
# you of valid modes.
# CAUTION: On VirtualBox, and perhaps on some real computers, specifying
# a text mode and uncommenting the "textonly" option while NOT specifying
# a resolution can result in an unusable display in the booted OS.
# Default is 1024 (no change)
#textmode 2
textmode 1024
# Set the screen's video resolution. Pass this option either:
# * two values, corresponding to the X and Y resolutions
# * one value, corresponding to a GOP (UEFI) video mode
# Note that not all resolutions are supported. On UEFI systems, passing
# an incorrect value results in a message being shown on the screen to
# that effect, along with a list of supported modes. On EFI 1.x systems
# (e.g., Macintoshes), setting an incorrect mode silently fails. On both
# types of systems, setting an incorrect resolution results in the default
# resolution being used. A resolution of 1024x768 usually works, but higher
# values often don't.
# Default is "0 0" (use the system default resolution, usually 800x600).
#resolution 1024 768
#resolution 3
resolution 1366 768
# Launch specified OSes in graphics mode. By default, rEFInd switches
# to text mode and displays basic pre-launch information when launching
# all OSes except OS X. Using graphics mode can produce a more seamless
# transition, but displays no information, which can make matters
# difficult if you must debug a problem. Also, on at least one known
# computer, using graphics mode prevents a crash when using the Linux
# kernel's EFI stub loader. You can specify an empty list to boot all
# OSes in text mode.
# Valid options:
# osx - Mac OS X
# linux - A Linux kernel with EFI stub loader
# elilo - The ELILO boot loader
# grub - The GRUB (Legacy or 2) boot loader
# windows - Microsoft Windows
# Default value: osx

# gptsync - the (dangerous) gptsync.efi utility (requires external
# program; see rEFInd documentation for details)
# apple_recovery - boots the Apple Recovery HD partition, if present
# mok_tool - makes available the Machine Owner Key (MOK) maintenance
# tool, MokManager.efi, used on Secure Boot systems
# about - an "about this program" option
# exit - a tag to exit from rEFInd
# shutdown - shuts down the computer (a bug causes this to reboot
# EFI systems)

showtools mok_tool,about,reboot,shutdown,exit
# Directories in which to search for EFI drivers. These drivers can
# provide filesystem support, give access to hard disks on plug-in
# controllers, etc. In most cases none are needed, but if you add
# EFI drivers and you want rEFInd to automatically load them, you
# should specify one or more paths here. rEFInd always scans the
# "drivers" and "drivers_{arch}" subdirectories of its own installation
# directory (where "{arch}" is your architecture code); this option
# specifies ADDITIONAL directories to scan.
# Default is to scan no additional directories for EFI drivers
#scan_driver_dirs EFI/tools/drivers,drivers
scan_driver_dirs EFI/tools/drivers_x64
# Which types of boot loaders to search, and in what order to display them:
# internal - internal EFI disk-based boot loaders

# optical - EFI optical discs (CD, DVD, etc.)
# hdbios - BIOS disk-based boot loaders
# biosexternal - BIOS external boot loaders (USB, eSATA, etc.)
# cd - BIOS optical-disc boot loaders
# manual - use stanzas later in this configuration file
# Note that the legacy BIOS options require firmware support, which is
# not present on all computers.
# On UEFI PCs, default is internal,external,optical,manual
# On Macs, default is internal,hdbios,external,biosexternal,optical,cd,manual
#scanfor internal,external,optical,manual
# scanfor manual,internal,external,optical,hdbios,biosexternal,cd

# Delay for the specified number of seconds before scanning disks.

# (usually external or optical discs) aren't detected initially,
# but are detected after pressing Esc.
# The default is 0.
#scan_delay 5

# When scanning volumes for EFI boot loaders, rEFInd always looks for
# Mac OS X's and Microsoft Windows' boot loaders in their normal locations,
# and scans the root directory and every subdirectory of the /EFI directory
# for additional boot loaders, but it doesn't recurse into these directories.
# The also_scan_dirs token adds more directories to the scan list.
# Directories are specified relative to the volume's root directory. This
# option applies to ALL the volumes that rEFInd scans UNLESS you include
# a volume name and colon before the directory name, as in "myvol:/somedir"
# to scan the somedir directory only on the filesystem named myvol. If a
# specified directory doesn't exist, it's ignored (no error condition
# results). The default is to scan the "boot" directory in addition to
# various hard-coded directories.
#also_scan_dirs boot,ESP2:EFI/linux/kernels
# also_scan_dirs UEFISYS:EFI/arch/arch_linux_core,UEFISYS:EFI/arch/arch_linux_mainline
# Partitions to omit from scans. You must specify a volume by its
# label, which you can obtain in an EFI shell by typing "vol", from
# Linux by typing "blkid /dev/{devicename}", or by examining the
# disk's label in various OSes' file browsers.
# The default is "Recovery HD".
#dont_scan_volumes "Recovery HD"
# Directories that should NOT be scanned for boot loaders. By default,
# rEFInd doesn't scan its own directory or the EFI/tools directory.
# You can "blacklist" additional directories with this option, which
# takes a list of directory names as options. You might do this to
# keep EFI/boot/bootx64.efi out of the menu if that's a duplicate of
# another boot loader or to exclude a directory that holds drivers
# or non-bootloader utilities provided by a hardware manufacturer. If
# a directory is listed both here and in also_scan_dirs, dont_scan_dirs
# takes precedence. Note that this blacklist applies to ALL the
# filesystems that rEFInd scans, not just the ESP, unless you precede
# the directory name by a filesystem name, as in "myvol:EFI/somedir"
# to exclude EFI/somedir from the scan on the myvol volume but not on
# other volumes.
#dont_scan_dirs ESP:/EFI/boot,EFI/Dell
dont_scan_dirs UEFISYS:EFI/boot
# Files that should NOT be included as EFI boot loaders (on the
# first line of the display). If you're using a boot loader that
# relies on support programs or drivers that are installed alongside
# the main binary or if you want to "blacklist" certain loaders by
# name rather than location, use this option. Note that this will
# NOT prevent certain binaries from showing up in the second-row
# set of tools. Most notably, MokManager.efi is in this blacklist,
# but will show up as a tool if present in certain directories. You
# can control the tools row with the showtools token.
# The default is shim.efi,TextMode.efi,ebounce.efi,GraphicsConsole.efi,MokManager.efi,HashTool.efi,HashTool-signed.efi
#dont_scan_files shim.efi,MokManager.efi
# Scan for Linux kernels that lack a ".efi" filename extension. This is
# useful for better integration with Linux distributions that provide
# kernels with EFI stub loaders but that don't give those kernels filenames
# that end in ".efi", particularly if the kernels are stored on a
# filesystem that the EFI can read. When uncommented, this option causes
# all files in scanned directories with names that begin with "vmlinuz"
# or "bzImage" to be included as loaders, even if they lack ".efi"
# extensions. The drawback to this option is that it can pick up kernels
# that lack EFI stub loader support and other files. Passing this option
# a "0" value causes kernels without ".efi" extensions to NOT be scanned;
# passing it alone or with any other value causes all kernels to be scanned.
# Default is to NOT scan for kernels without ".efi" extensions.
scan_all_linux_kernels
# Set the maximum number of tags that can be displayed on the screen at
# any time. If more loaders are discovered than this value, rEFInd shows
# a subset in a scrolling list. If this value is set too high for the

# If this value is set to 0 (the default), it's adjusted to the number
# that the screen can handle.
#max_tags 0
# Set the default menu selection. The available arguments match the

# - A digit between 1 and 9, in which case the Nth loader in the menu

# - Any substring that corresponds to a portion of the loader's title
# (usually the OS's name or boot loader's path).

# Include a secondary configuration file within this one. This secondary

# override. Note that the secondary file may NOT load a tertiary file.
#include manual.conf
# Sample manual configuration stanzas. Each begins with the "menuentry"
# keyword followed by a name that's to appear in the menu (use quotes
# if you want the name to contain a space) and an open curly brace
# ("{"). Each entry ends with a close curly brace ("}"). Common
# keywords within each stanza include:
# volume - identifies the filesystem from which subsequent files
# are loaded. You can specify the volume by label or by
# a number followed by a colon (as in "0:" for the first
# filesystem or "1:" for the second).
# loader - identifies the boot loader file
# initrd - Specifies an initial RAM disk file
# icon - specifies a custom boot loader icon
# ostype - OS type code to determine boot options available by
# pressing Insert. Valid values are "MacOS", "Linux",
# "Windows", and "XOM". Case-sensitive.
# graphics - set to "on" to enable graphics-mode boot (useful
# mainly for MacOS) or "off" for text-mode boot.
# Default is auto-detected from loader filename.
# options - sets options to be passed to the boot loader; use
# quotes if more than one option should be passed or
# if any options use characters that might be changed
# by rEFInd parsing procedures (=, /, #, or tab).
# disabled - use alone or set to "yes" to disable this entry.
# Note that you can use either DOS/Windows/EFI-style backslashes (\)
# or Unix-style forward slashes (/) as directory separators. Either
# way, all file references are on the ESP from which rEFInd was
# launched.
# Use of quotes around parameters causes them to be interpreted as
# one keyword, and for parsing of special characters (spaces, =, /,
# and #) to be disabled. This is useful mainly with the "options"
# keyword. Use of quotes around parameters that specify filenames is
# permissible, but you must then use backslashes instead of slashes,
# except when you must pass a forward slash to the loader, as when
# passing a root= option to a Linux kernel.

For this you need to have /boot/efi/EFI/tools/drivers_x64/ext4_x64.efi driver, otherwise rEFInd wont be able to read /boot. I have /boot as a separate partition from / root partition. If your /boot is part of root partition, you need to modify the file paths accordingly. -
[SOLVED] Help setting up wireless/wired
Hello everyone! I installed arch last night on my desktop and had no issues, ethernet worked during install and wireless asked for firmware. (b43/ucode5.fw , b43-open/ucode5.fw) during install i set a static IP in configuration file following the "beginner guide" after install was finished i rebooted and went to bed.
tonight when i got home i booted up my PC (damn fast!) and was assuming my LAN connection would remain. alas it didn't, I ran ifconfig and i receive "-bash: ifconfig: command not found"
i figured i'd set up my wireless because that's going to be my main source of internet anyway. so i downloaded the firmware following the "wireless guide" for my broadcom 14e4:4318 , i found out that it doesn't use the legacy driver on the kernel.org website so i followed this
sudo pacman -S b43-fwcutter
export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware"
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/broadcom-wl-4.178.10.4.tar.bz2

sudo b43-fwcutter -w "$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR" wl_apsta.o
it moves the firmware (somewhere) i reboot and i still receive gripes about firmware! any help would be greatly appreciated as i currently have no net on this machine and would like to start configuring the rest of my hardware
Thanks everyone!
Edit:: for shits i just set eth0 to up, it's now connected to the net but my wireless issue still remains. and still no ifconfig strange!
also hello! first post, look forward to meeting you all and an exciting arch experience.

I receive the following

11:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)
however, as stated in my edit on post 1, i tried
ip link set eth0 up
and my static i set during set-up remained, from here i grabbed the BC43 package from AUR http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21690
rebooted and now wireless is working.
Thanks for the help RG I guess if i would have waited a bit i coulda solved it without a post, but the quick response makes me satisfied in chosing Arch as my distro ! -
[Solved] Help me, please with D-Link DWA-125
Hi everybody!
Firstly, sorry for my english. I'm from Russia .
Recently i bought D-Link DWA-125 and Prestigio MultiPad 9.7 Pro. I want to make D-Link DWA-125 work like access point.

# The following two options make you a better netizen, since they
# tell dnsmasq to filter out queries which the public DNS cannot
# answer, and which load the servers (especially the root servers)
# unnecessarily. If you have a dial-on-demand link they also stop
# these requests from bringing up the link unnecessarily.
# Never forward plain names (without a dot or domain part)
domain-needed
# Never forward addresses in the non-routed address spaces.

# Uncomment this to filter useless windows-originated DNS requests
# which can trigger dial-on-demand links needlessly.
# Note that (amongst other things) this blocks all SRV requests,
# so don't use it if you use eg Kerberos, SIP, XMMP or Google-talk.
# This option only affects forwarding, SRV records originating for
# dnsmasq (via srv-host= lines) are not suppressed by it.
#filterwin2k
# Change this line if you want dns to get its upstream servers from
# somewhere other that /etc/resolv.conf
#resolv-file=
# By default, dnsmasq will send queries to any of the upstream
# servers it knows about and tries to favour servers to are known
# to be up. Uncommenting this forces dnsmasq to try each query
# with each server strictly in the order they appear in
# /etc/resolv.conf
#strict-order
# If you don't want dnsmasq to read /etc/resolv.conf or any other
# file, getting its servers from this file instead (see below), then
# uncomment this.
#no-resolv
# If you don't want dnsmasq to poll /etc/resolv.conf or other resolv
# files for changes and re-read them then uncomment this.
#no-poll
# Add other name servers here, with domain specs if they are for
# non-public domains.
#server=/localnet/192.168.0.1
# Example of routing PTR queries to nameservers: this will send all
# address->name queries for 192.168.3/24 to nameserver 10.1.2.3
#server=/3.168.192.in-addr.arpa/10.1.2.3
# Add local-only domains here, queries in these domains are answered
# from /etc/hosts or DHCP only.
#local=/localnet/
# Add domains which you want to force to an IP address here.
# The example below send any host in double-click.net to a local
# web-server.
#address=/double-click.net/127.0.0.1
# --address (and --server) work with IPv6 addresses too.
#address=/www.thekelleys.org.uk/fe80::20d:60ff:fe36:f83
# You can control how dnsmasq talks to a server: this forces
# queries to 10.1.2.3 to be routed via eth1
# server=10.1.2.3@eth1
# and this sets the source (ie local) address used to talk to
# 10.1.2.3 to 192.168.1.1 port 55 (there must be a interface with that
# IP on the machine, obviously).
# [email protected]#55
# If you want dnsmasq to change uid and gid to something other
# than the default, edit the following lines.
user=arch
#group=
# If you want dnsmasq to listen for DHCP and DNS requests only on
# specified interfaces (and the loopback) give the name of the
# interface (eg eth0) here.
# Repeat the line for more than one interface.

# If you want dnsmasq to provide only DNS service on an interface,
# configure it as shown above, and then use the following line to
# disable DHCP and TFTP on it.
#no-dhcp-interface=
# On systems which support it, dnsmasq binds the wildcard address,
# even when it is listening on only some interfaces. It then discards
# requests that it shouldn't reply to. This has the advantage of
# working even when interfaces come and go and change address. If you
# want dnsmasq to really bind only the interfaces it is listening on,
# uncomment this option. About the only time you may need this is when
# running another nameserver on the same machine.

# 1) Allows DHCP hosts to have fully qualified domain names, as long

# If there are multiple external tftp servers having a same name
# (using /etc/hosts) then that name can be specified as the

# Set the limit on DHCP leases, the default is 150
#dhcp-lease-max=150
# The DHCP server needs somewhere on disk to keep its lease database.
# This defaults to a sane location, but if you want to change it, use
# the line below.
#dhcp-leasefile=/var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases
# Set the DHCP server to authoritative mode. In this mode it will barge in
# and take over the lease for any client which broadcasts on the network,
# whether it has a record of the lease or not. This avoids long timeouts
# when a machine wakes up on a new network. DO NOT enable this if there's
# the slightest chance that you might end up accidentally configuring a DHCP
# server for your campus/company accidentally. The ISC server uses
# the same option, and this URL provides more information:

# Set the cachesize here.
#cache-size=150
# If you want to disable negative caching, uncomment this.
#no-negcache
# Normally responses which come form /etc/hosts and the DHCP lease
# file have Time-To-Live set as zero, which conventionally means
# do not cache further. If you are happy to trade lower load on the
# server for potentially stale date, you can set a time-to-live (in
# seconds) here.
#local-ttl=
# If you want dnsmasq to detect attempts by Verisign to send queries
# to unregistered .com and .net hosts to its sitefinder service and
# have dnsmasq instead return the correct NXDOMAIN response, uncomment
# this line. You can add similar lines to do the same for other
# registries which have implemented wildcard A records.
#bogus-nxdomain=64.94.110.11
# If you want to fix up DNS results from upstream servers, use the
# alias option. This only works for IPv4.
# This alias makes a result of 1.2.3.4 appear as 5.6.7.8
#alias=1.2.3.4,5.6.7.8
# and this maps 1.2.3.x to 5.6.7.x
#alias=1.2.3.0,5.6.7.0,255.255.255.0
