[SOLVED] How to install custom kernel from AUR?

I am trying to install the custom kernel for the Acer Aspire One from AUR. What is the correct way to go about doing this? I pacman -U the .pkg.tar.gz I downloaded and it put a new kernel folder in /usr/src. Do I just copy the old .config file and make?

After installing new kernel with pacman -U you just need to add a new line to grub menu.lst pointing to it and reboot
How would you go about doing this in syslinux instead of grub?

[Solved] how to patch source file from AUR for gcc46 ?

In a topic from yesterday, I was seeking help to get AUR package 'insight' installed, but so far no luck, since there seems to be a bug in the source that won't work with the gcc47 compiler. I'm posting this new topic, since the subject has changed a bit - I'm now trying to compile gcc46 because another user had success with that version in compiling the 'insight' package, and I need to patch the gcc46 source to get it to compile.
I'm looking for help to fix the problem myself, or if anyone wants to create a new PKGBUILD to handle the problem, that would be nice too
Originally, I thought I would try to install gcc42 from AUR and use that to run makepkg on the 'insight' app, since one user had success with this version of gcc. Both gcc42 and gcc46 give me the same errors with an 'unwind' file, and I couldn't get either to compile (errors about unwind.h or linux-unwind.h).
I found a post with a link to a patch (for gcc46), but I have no idea where to apply or how to apply this patch. I think I'm supposed to apply it to this file, but again, I'm not sure how to apply a patch:
/home/briphi/builds/gcc46/src/gcc-4.6.3/gcc/unwind-dw2.c
, but this c file has includes to other "unwind" header files. Here is a link to the unwind-dw2.c file at my dropbox folder, if anyone needs to see this file without downloading/compiling gcc46: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8169867/unwind-dw2.c
Sticking with gcc46 for the moment (since I found the patch for this version)...
The post with the link to the patch to gcc46 is here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 0#p1229880
The patch at pastebin.com is here: http://pastebin.com/VkgE27Pd and looks like this:

The file(s) that need patching are mentioned in the patch, so you don't have to know yourself where they are.
patch files like these are usually applied from the directory where you build stuff.
On your system that is probably this folder : /home/briphi/builds/gcc46/src/gcc-4.6.3/
for details about the command used to apply the patch, t0m5k1's link above should help.
Thanks Lone_Wolf for the help. I'm suffering from information overload at the moment, so (@t0m5k1) even though I found the same results that you found through google, they weren't explicit enough.

[SOLVED] How to install from AUR?

Ok, I know I'm posting too many questions too fast but I'm at the last step in configuring my videocard driver to install X and I'm stranded in the middle of nowhere, sorry for too much posting.
I need to install a package from AUR but even I read the guide (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_User_Guidelines) I can't make it clear enough on how to do it so please correct me if there's anything wrong.
a. first of all, I need to download and install wget because I'm at CLI ready to configure X but I need the latest test drivers that fully support my videocard.
b. mkdir ~/myuser/build && cd ~/myuser/build
c. I need to download from here (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34773) the Tarball, PKGBUILD and all the files listed in "Files", right?
d. Once I have files downloaded all I need to do is follow the instructions in the wiki,
1. Acquire a PKGBUILD and any other required files (e.g. patches)
2. Run makepkg in the directory where the files are saved
3. Install the resulting package with pacman
Thanks for any advice!

guys,
did you ever saw that Heineken TV Ad where a woman shows her dresser-room to her fellow friends and they start screaming like (women does) crazy, and while they still screaming a lot they start to hear a somewhat identical scream from other part of the house that in fact shows up as the boyfriend/husband of the first lady showing his buddys his special fridge-room filled with green bottles?
Well, that was my *exact* impression yesterday after having KDE4 up and running with composite turned on faster than any Fluxbox system on a iCore 7, and that's the top part of the iceberg.
I think the best thing I like about Arch it's it's simplicity - besides it's speed. Okay, it may seem somewhat obscure to profane because editing configuration files is something strange to profanes, but if you have a little knowledge of GNU/Linux like myself once completed the Beginner's Guide, looking at /var/log/pacman.log and start tweaking you found yourself with a very powerfull yet easy to use, easy and fast to learn system. Arch is incredible, that's why it's gaining so much popularity, and it's community is superb.
I'm doing my first steps around it and find Yaourt a very cool tool, I love all the info it shows about installed and AUR packages and the way it colorize, very pragmatic-oriented (as Arch is).
On the other hand Packer is a swift tool to replace pacman.
Thank you guys for your kindness and time spent on this n00b, best!

i get the booting files(archlive.img,vmlinuz26) in the archlinux2008_6_i686.iso and put them in c:\
in the grub command mode the use of these code:
root (hd0,0)

i get those from : http://blog.chinaunix.net/u/31909/showart_1121360.html
but it stopped , some code printing on the screen...................it can not continue..
from the google i find :"this method must use the "vmlinz "and the "initrd.img",this files is from archlinux2008.03.iso
i don't understand .......
i must download the archlinux2008.03.iso?...........it's too much trouble.

Do you have a USB stick you could copy the image to? Where I live, a CD costs $0.50 at most. To put that into perspective. A coffee costs a $1.00. Either a CD costs a lot more than a coffee where you live or are you telling me you'd rather get a lot of grey hair than buy half a coffee?
Sorry I can't be of much help. I don't know how to do this method of installation. If you're desperate, you could try making an extra partition, and trying something with that. Take a look at these:

[SOLVED] how to install mingetty

$ pacman -S mingetty
error: 'mingetty': could not find or read package
so then I downloaded mingetty-1.08.tar.gz & mingetty-utf8.patch from http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13793
to my home/rich/Downloads folder. But how do I install it?
Last edited by dameunmate (2010-07-16 08:41:28)

Sorry about that, I had read a lot of the wiki but I had no idea how to install a package from the AUR. The console was very upset when I tried to install mingetty as the root user, so to install it as another user changing the permissions on each and every installation file took a long time. However I got there in the end. Thanks for your help.
For anyone who like myself is running Arch Linux and Openbox, in the end I didn't need mingetty to boot straight into X Openbox, so I've now uninstalled it. I only needed to folow the instructions in the Arch Wiki at http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Start_X_at_boot (second section using etc/inittab).
Here's my etc/inittab:
# /etc/inittab
# Runlevels:
# 0 Halt
# 1(S) Single-user
# 2 Not used
# 3 Multi-user
# 4 Not used
# 5 X11
# 6 Reboot
## Only one of the following two lines can be uncommented!
# Boot to console
#id:3:initdefault:
# Boot to X11
id:5:initdefault:
rc::sysinit:/etc/rc.sysinit
rs:S1:wait:/etc/rc.single
rm:2345:wait:/etc/rc.multi
rh:06:wait:/etc/rc.shutdown
su:S:wait:/sbin/sulogin -p

#x:5:respawn:/usr/sbin/gdm -nodaemon

# End of file
...the key is in the x:5:once:/bin/su YOUR_USERNAME_HERE -l -c "/bin/bash --login -c /usr/bin/startx >/dev/null 2>&1"
So now I just press the power button and end up in Openbox in about 50 seconds (for some reason my motherboard takes 30 seconds to get to the Grub menu, then as Arch boots it takes a good 10 seconds to get a wireless connection up). Press the power button again and it automatically shuts down! (see http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Shu … wer_Button - I don't know if this closes X properly but anyway it works)

How to install Windows 7 from a USB drive!

This is even easier than installing Windows XP from a USB drive, and will also reduce the time taken to install Windows 7, it took me about 15 minutes!
The advice in the guide is also applicable to installing Vista.
You need basically:
a USB flash drive at least 4GB in size
a Windows 7 DVD
To sum up:
Format your USB drive, with the NTFS filesystem
Open Command Prompt as an administrator, and run the Bootsect.exe program off the Windows 7 CD to make the USB drive bootable
Copy the contents of the Windows 7 DVD to the USB drive
Restart your PC, press F11 (or whichever key it is) to access the Boot menu, and select your USB drive to boot from
Full guide here:
http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-install-windows-7vista-from-usb-drive-detailed-100-working-guide/

Quote from: bnborg on 16-February-11, 10:28:04
I have done this and it is simple.
I cleaned and (re)formated an 8GB flash drive under Windows7 using diskpart. I chose quick format and a fat filesystem. It doesn't need to be ntfs. I had diskpart mark the partition active. I copied the DVD contents to the flash drive. I also made a folder on it for motherboard drivers.
After that, I booted the drive on a new machine. Windows7 setup came up, and didn't find any hard drives, other than the USB flash drive. I clicked the button to load drivers, and pointed it to the folder I had copied them to on the flash. Windows installed without problems.
Hi bnborg..Do u mind sharing with me your motherboard driver folder? I have the MSI U135DX Netbook and each time I hit the button to install Windows 7 it asks me for some mobo driver...Think i might need it to get tru with a successful install..

This is the best I can do. This way you can use the 2011 MBA way to do things.
Look for the post from @jacktourist. (on page 2 about half way down) This seems to be the easiest.
There are a couple of more similar to this with pictures I've seen around but can't remember where.
Here's another search with added info. It's easier then it sounds.

[Solved] Error installing Flash 64bit from AUR

I tried installing the 64bit flash from here :http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21601, using 'yaourt -S flashplugin-alpha-64 10.0.d20.7-3'
It will say:
Downloading 10.0.d20.7-3 PKGBUILD from AUR
Error: 10.0.d20.7-3 not found in AUR.
So i tried another method by downloading this tar file from http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs … .so.tar.gz
Then i untarred the file and on the desktop it shows 'libflashplayer.so'
So next i went to terminal, tried doing 'cd Desktop', followed by 'pacman -S libflashplayer.so', but it says i need to be root to do that. So i do 'su - ', and then 'cd Desktop', but it says '-bash: cd: Desktop: No such file or directory.'
How am i suppose to install flash64 bit? Thanks.

should be just "yaourt -S flashplugin-alpha-64" no version needed
the error is telling you it cant find 10.0.d20.7-3 which is not a package. did you get another error with the first part? or did you see it building the package?
i like building it by hand, so i usually (in a folder on my /home) i do
mkdir flashplugin-alpha-64
cd flashplugin-alpha-64
yaourt -G flashplugin-alpha-64 (to get pKGBUILD and other files)
makepkg (to build)
then install with yaourt -U [full package filename]
makes me feel like i'm in control

[solved] How to install the AUR

I apologise if this question is answered somewhere, but I looked at the wiki pages and I am still confused.
I am trying to install libreoffice-extension-languagetool
I am using the command:
sudo pacman -S libreoffice-extension-languagetool
I get the message: error: target not found: libreoffice-extension-languagetool
I understand that this is in the AUR, I can see it here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libr … guagetool/
I would be most appreciative of any assistance in understanding this specific situation.
I checked my pacman.conf and found what I thought indicates that the community repositor is enabled:
[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
I am sure I missed something simple.

cprofitt:
After you get your grip on using AUR via makepkg, you may take a look at yaourt (@ArchWiki). It allows you to automatically rebuild packages when an update is available. It also helps a lot when building a package that has tons of dependencies coming from AUR.
Note hower that I've put an emphasize "after". While yaourt is a great tool, using it without understanding "the basic way" first is not the wisest idea. Keep ewaller's words in mind: AUR is just a place where people may put a file that basically contains a set of commands to execute. It's just like finding information on a forum on how to compile a package. You wouldn't just blindly copy-paste commands from a forum to your terminal, would you?

[SOLVED] Installing Catalyst drivers from AUR

Hi everyone!
Got me an new laptop and have an Radeon HD 3200 in it and hoped to get it working but
I dont managed to get it to work so I hoped someone here could help me
Ive tested the xf86-video-ati
xf86-video-radeonhd
xf86-video-radeonhd-git
But those does get it to work but the performance is really shit and I really want 3d acceleration
so I decided to give the catalyst 9.4-1 from AUR a go.
Installs with yaourt and everything seems to go fine but when I startx it goes back to command line.
My xorg:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "DontZap" "false"
EndSection
#Section "Module"
# Load "glx"
# Load "dri"
# Load "drm"
#EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "fglrx"
# Option "AccelMethod" "exa"
# Option "DRI" "on"
# Option "ColorTiling" "on"
EndSection
#Section "DRI"
# Group "video"
# Mode 0666
#EndSection
The commented lines were used for the radeonhd driver.
Here is the Xorg.0.log when using fglrx driver:

Thanks greenfish for your help I changed my xorg.conf to this:

EndSection

And now I get into X with the catalyst driver and it seems much smoother than with
the radeonhd driver.
But now comes the next problem, when I try to launch a 3d application such as tuxkart
I get this outout:
[johan@acer ~]$ tuxkart
Data files will be fetched from: '/usr/share/games/tuxkart'
X Error of failed request: BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 137 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
Serial number of failed request: 21

Anyone knows anything about this? glxgears gives me the same results.

How to install user 'hwd' from CD (SOLVED)

Forgive me, but I've searched on how to install a user program. Namely I want to install 'hwh'
I have remade the Don't Panic CD with 'hwd-4.8.2.bin.tar.gz' inside the arch/pkg directory
on the cd. pacman see's it, but won't install it.
I know using the internet is the easiest way, but the pc I'm trying to install it on doesn't have
internet access. I noticed it is missing the .pkginfo and .filelist files that the other orignal one
have. I guess my question is how do I install "user" packages without using the internet.
I'm trying to get Arch installed using the below guide, and shows using hwd :
file://localhost/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/Arch%20Voodoo%20Install.mht
Should I have put the hwd file on my /home somewhere, or will this work. I don't know enough about
Arch and/or pacman to direct its path. I have manage to alter pacman.conf inside /etc to point to the
cdrom to get the other stuff off of it. I now have a working video but I would like to see how or
what 'hwd' does.
Thanks for any help, and please excuse my ignorance.

hwd-4.8.2.bin.tar.gz is not an Arch package - that's why pacman doesn't like it.
Get hwd-4.8.2-1-<arch>.pkg.tar.gz from any Arch mirror (<arch> is i686 or x86_64, as required).
Question answered, so now the advice: you don't need hwd. Arch's default hardware detection is better.
Thanks, I found it here:
ftp://mirrors.unixheads.org/archlinux/extra/os/i686/
Confusing for new user. Because I found the other one here:
http://www.archlinux.org/packages/3946/
Even though at the top of the header it states hwd 4.8.2-1
but in the sources it had hwd 4.8.2 ONLY.
In future I'll follow the ftp mirror.
Edit: Oh, I see. I think your advice is referring to this package:
hwdetect-0.8-8.pkg.tar.gz
If so, I thought 'hwd' added something this one didn't. Accoring to the guide I had listed.
Thanks for your help.
