[SOLVED] KDE install problem

Hi folks,
I am trying to install KDE on my Arch Linux flash drive and I'm having 1 problem. I typed pacman -S kde, and about 20% through the whole download, it gets to the file called "libwbclient-4.0.7-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz". It then starts going through a LOT of mirrors trying to find one that works, but every single one says "The requested URL returned error: 404 not found". I checked with my phone and another computer that my internet is working, and I paused the download and pinged Google to make sure the laptop I'm using still had a connection (it did). Any ideas?

Ah, shucks
We do ask that those who start threads to mark them as solved when appropriate.  We ask that you do it as only you know when it ir really solved.  Just edit the first post in the thread and add [SOLVED] to the beginning of the thread title.
Thanks, and, again, welcome to Arch.

  • Simple, safe and best way to solve SL install problem

    Not long ago, the internal 230GB drive on my Intel iMac (2.16GHz, Late 2006, 4GB RAM) became unusable ('nuther story there...). So I tried starting up from my external 1TB drive where the Time Machine backups were stored. It had Leopard (10.5.something, which I then updated to 10.5.8) on it. Then after restoring some files from TM backups, I wanted to try to retrieve some apps that needed SL 10.6.8 to run. I tried to install from my SL install disc, but the SL installer said I couldn't (APM vs. GUID/GPT format); apparently the drive was formatted with APM (dang!). The install disc said I had to (re-)partition in GUID/GPT, except that means I would have to have a backup drive for my 500GB or so of TM backups... (which I do NOT have).
    So, once I get another large external drive (or get a 500GB/1TB internal and put it into my iMac), I can then wipe and re-partition the external 1TB drive, and THEN install SL on the external drive, and then move all my TM backups back to the external drive, then tell TM to use that drive for my TM backups. I think, unless there's a simpler way that really will work.
    For now, I am chomping at the bit, since I have a lot of Pages and Numbers docs (those apps were bought from the Mac App Store), as well as several apps and games (free and purchased) that were downloaded also from the MAS (and require Snow Leopard 10.6 to run).
    What I'd like would be for someone to simply list what steps are needed (and in what order they should be done) to safely and reliably get this done, as my patience with APM/GUID/GPT, Apple's design choices on this iMac model, and a few other Apple-related issues is wearing thin. I don't (at this point) care to have any explanation of APM vs. GUID/GPT, why Apple chose to change things what each does differently from the other scheme, etc. (I have downloaded/printed PDFs of a few pages that I will go back and read later (after I get the problems with my iMac and its backup files resolved).
    Give me a checklist of the steps (starting with my getting another drive, either an internal for my iMac, or another external one), please.

    there are certainly no external drives with preinstalled leopard. you'll have to buy leopard and a drive. you can install it on that drive normally but I would recommend buying a bigger internal drive for your imac. put it in, boot from the leopard install DVd and install leopard.

  • [SOLVED][GRUB]Install problem with the new method

    Hi,
    it is not my first install of Arch Linux but I have a problem with this new kind of installation method, especially with GRUB.
    Here is my hard drives configuration :
    /dev/sda1 -> SSD 120 GB ntfs (windows)
    /dev/sdb1 -> HD 1 TB ext4 (data)
    /dev/sdc :
    /dev/sdc1 -> ext2 /boot
    /dev/sdc2 -> swap
    /dev/sdc3 -> ext4 /
    /dev/sdc5 -> ext4 /home
    During the installation, I installed grub (with grub-install) in /dev/sdc. I assumed it was the correct drive to install it but apparently not, Windows starts automatically and I don't have the grub menu.
    Should I install my system again or is there a way to boot on the livecd and install it ?
    Should I :
    1) mount /dev/sdc3 in /mnt then /dev/sdc1 in /mnt/boot and finally /dev/sdc5 in /mnt/home
    2) pacstrap /mnt grub-bios
    3) arch-chroot
    4) grub-install
    Thank you.

    If you set whatever drive "/dev/sdc" is (brand and model) to boot first in the BIOS, all you need to do is install a bootloader on Arch. You don't even need a separate boot partition. It will use the /boot folder on root partition. Then install os-prober (if you don't already have this installed) and re-generate the .cfg.
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Be … bootloader
    The problem is that I cannot select another hard drive. The only one available for the boot order is the Samsung 830 series (/dev/sda with Windows).
    The other options are the CD drive and removable disk.
    I checked that this morning, maybe I was too tired. I will check again this evening.
    But if I am right and I cannot select my intel SSD (containing my arch setup) for the boot order, would the solution I described work ? I don't see why not but my knowledge are basic in Linux.

  • [Partly SOLVED] KDE khotkeys problem

    Hi!
    I have this problem with keyboard shortcuts that khotkeys doesn't update my configuration. I have multiple entries in it which doesn't exist anymore in "custom shortcuts".

    Under [Data_9Triggers0] there is "Key=Launch (1)" which is my shortcut to kcalc. But it doesn't work. It worked before update to kde 4.8.1.
    I have also edited kglobalshortcutsrc where resist redundant entries. But whenever i deleted them and then run System Setting they reappear. I really don't know which file/service is responsible for this.
    This multimedia key "Launch (1)" is the only one that doesn't work.

  • Best Way To Solve This Install Problem?

    We have an iMac whose internal drive has crashed. Won't start up. It had Tiger installed.
    The internal drive was never really big enough in the first place, so I was thinking of just getting an external Firewire drive and using that as a startup drive instead of bringing this thing in, paying for labor and a new internal drive.
    Are there any firewire externals with Leopard pre-installed?
    If not, it means buying Leopard, and a drive, and then figuring out how to install Leopard on the external. Any ideas appreciated.
    Thanks
    Tom

    there are certainly no external drives with preinstalled leopard. you'll have to buy leopard and a drive. you can install it on that drive normally but I would recommend buying a bigger internal drive for your imac. put it in, boot from the leopard install DVd and install leopard.

  • Solaris 10 install problem (requested image to big to fit into memory)

    I have just downloaded the iso images and burned to disk. When I go to install I get the message (Requested image to big to fit into memory Error 28) I have 1.5GB so I don't understand the problem. Thanks in advance
    It took a long time for me to figure out, but the answer is disable in BIOS memory hole at 15M to 16M. This solved the install problem with Open Solaris and quite a few more such as not being able to install Linux Zenwalk 5.0 or openSUSE 10.3. Their are others also problems I have had with Linux or UNIX that this took care of. JGZ
    Edited by: jgz on Mar 8, 2008 9:13 PM

    Hi,
    I had been able to solve the Error 28 issue that in my case was really related to a corrupted boot image:
    1. I went in the path /a/platform/i86pc
    2. rm boot_archive.
    3. sync
    4. reboot
    At this point the OS will notice the absence of the boot_image and it will regenerate it.
    At the time of this operation the CD with solaris 10 was inserted in the CDROM.
    When the system restarted it was able to load the OS properly.
    Please use these information at your own risk. I do not accept any liablity.
    Cheers

    I did not pick the Z drive for install.  I always pick the C drive if given the option.  But PE9 just went to work on its own and told me it could not install to the Z drive... there is a known issue posted here along these lines, however, so I think Adobe is on to it... of course i had to install as a trial version on a second machine to test the disk burning...then I have to solve the install problem, so I can install the license on the machine with the install problem.... all a big catch 22.  Here's the link on the install issue...

  • [SOLVED] Just installed KDE 4.6, desktop effects don't work.

    When I try to enable KDE's desktop effects the screen goes haywire and everything is black with nasty distorted lines. Then everything returns after a little while and KDE shows a popup notification saying that "desktop effects were too slow and have been suspended...".
    I'm pretty sure my xorg.conf is configured perfectly, I've read everything there is to know about that. I was previously on Gnome with Compiz working flawlessly, so I have a feeling its not a video problem. There's always a small chance I could be wrong though.
    Could it be a video driver problem? If so, what should I do about that?
    Any idea what might be wrong?

    I'm using xf86-video-ati with my ATI card.
    I initially tried Gnome, but for some reason, gnome-shell just wouldn't start, so that why I ended up trying KDE. Once in KDE, i had this described problem.I couldn't fix it, and it was crashing (100% CPU usage sometimes), so I switched back to Gnome 3 to attempt to get the shell running. Finally, I figured out that you must not add "nomodeset" to the kernel boot line in order for gnome-shell to work, so I removed that from the end of my line and gnome-shell worked!
    It might be possible that this is the solution for the KDE graphic problem as well... I'm testing it right now, i'll be back to post it after the restart...

  • Olite8i NT Install Problem

    Hi,

    I dont have the solution to the problem you are mentioning, but
    you may have OLite running problems once you have solved the
    above problem because of SP4. Oracle Corp suggests one to install
    SP3. I also faced running problems, which was solved by intalling
    SP3 instead of SP4.

  • DPM2012 R2 Update Rollup 3 Install Problem

    Hi, 
    the update came through WSUS and wouldn't install successfully. I also tried to install manually, 
    but it doesn't go through. 
    Anyone else having issuse with this update?
    What I also noticed is, that VSS on the DPM Server itself was broken afterwards, and I found a VSS Null Provider and also a VSS Null Service that was running. Deleting those registry keys and stopping this service solved the VSS problem. Google didn't tell
    anything about this service or VSS Provider, only a dll that was packed within UR3. 
    I believe it also had to do with the failed UR3 Update that was rolled back.
    So happy to hear if anyone could successfully install it. The log didn't tell me a lot or I didn't know what to look after. 
    Thanks
    Patrick 

    Thanks for your answer. When I downloaded through the catalog, the download worked fine, 4 files, all .exes though. Might be I have to dig deeper into it.

    Not sure if the transforming table error mean a lot as those messages happen after UR3 update. 
    Only thing I am not sure, as I am getting the same error code as Ihab, if it could have to do with protection agent. But on the DPM itself, there is no separat installation of a protection agent, that could be uninstalled. 
    But seems quite some people have this problem as the comments of this blogpost...

  • Leopard install problems on G4 AGP with processor upgrade

    Hi,
    I've got an olde PowerMac G4 (AGP 450 or so Mhz) that was upgraded many years ago to a PowerLogix 7455 Dual 1.3 Ghz processor. It has Boot ROM version 4.2.8, and has been running Tiger 10.4.11 faithfully, but I thought I would bring it up to speed with Leopard and get it in line with the rest of my machines.
    The Leopard install disc (10.5) won't boot the machine. After I run the installer and the machine re-boots, the drive churns, spits out the disc and then re-boots.
    So I looked into the whole "disc pops out issue" in the KB and this G4 AGP does NOT need the firmware update listed in the KB to solve a similar problem on Quicksilvers (FYI, its a MATSHITADVD-ROM SR-8585 r1A28)
    The machine meets all Leopard requirements, so thinking it was the drive (since the disc kept popping out) I booted into target disc mode and installed 10.5 from a PowerBook G4.
    But now when I boot the G4 from that drive, it does not get past the grey Apple screen with the spinner... the machine shuts down just as it would normally get to the blue screen.
    The G4 boots fine from the clone I made just before I started all this (Phew!) so I am back to square one, just wish I could bring the G4 up to Leopard.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Dave

    After I run the installer and the machine re-boots, the drive churns, spits out the disc and then re-boots.
    I booted into target disc mode and installed 10.5 from a PowerBook G4.
    I am getting confused your your use of "installer". Being able to run an Installer implies that you actually got the computer to boot from the DVD so you are actually able to run the Installer program. In the second instance when the other computer was in TDM did you actually install 10.5 and now the grey screen issue is when it is booting to 10.5 on your computer, or are you still hanging on booting to the DVD?
    The G4 boots fine from the clone I made just before I started all this (Phew!) so I am back to square one, just wish I could bring the G4 up to Leopard.
    I assume this is some pre-Leopard OS.
    Are you using a retail version of Leopard (black color) or gray discs that will only install on the machine with which they originally came and in particular if they came with an Intel computer will not like a PPC?

  • [SOLVED] KDE 4.3 upgrade. Kde-meta-kdeplasma-addons conflict

    Hello. Today i decided to upgrade my kde 4.2.4 to 4.3. After i execute:

    Warning: provider package was selected (kde-meta-kdeplasma-addons provides kdeplasma-addons)
    I don't want to install any kde-meta package. But this is no problem. I can delete them after.
    Problem is that:

    How to resolve that? Or maybe i must install manually all packages in kdeplasma-addons group?
