[SOLVED] looking for package like debtree on debian

do you know of a package that draws dependency graphs of installed packages, i.e. "draw me a graph of the package vlc and its dependencies"?
On Debian, there is a tool called debtree, on arch I found pacgraph, but pacgraph draws the entire system, I want to specify specific packages...
Thanks!

That asumes you already know where the binary is located. On the other side, my approach implies you know the right package name. The following would resolve these problems:
pacman -Qo $( which pactree )
Actually, you need neither to know the path nor use 'which':
[karol@black ~]$ pacman -Qo pactree
/usr/bin/pactree is owned by pacman 3.5.2-1
http://projects.archlinux.org/pacman.gi … ?id=v3.4.0
- allow -Qo to perform a functional 'which' (FS#8798)

[Solved] Looking for a simple music player

Hello there,
I'm looking for a music player for a box I'm currently building. I only need it to have a GUI, playlist support and random playing. I've thought of xmms2, but the standard package comes without GUI and I haven't found any clients with random playing.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

as simple as they get:
xmms: (not xmms2!)
audacious:
audacious is a form of bmp, which is a fork of xmms... they're all basicly the same, audacious is more up to date though.

[SOLVED] Looking for an audio player; specific requirements

I've searched around and can't really find what I'm looking for in an audio player(though Audacious and Exaile come close). What I need is one with these aspects:
- Based on GTK+
- Relatively lightweight
- Skinnable
I'd like something with a look similar to the Winamp "modern" skins, rather than the classic ones, but I can't find anything like this for Linux.

This makes your request impossible.
Nothing's impossible... creativity is key. I you can't achieve the look you're looking for natively, either code something yourself or look into running winamp through wine (here's an article on running winamp through wine if you're feeling lazy).

[SOLVED] looking for lightweight free ftp program for KDE

im looking for a free ftp program, or an alternative good suggestion thats not free hehehe (i like cuteFTP for win) so i can download for my arch box? i would like to do some file exchange on my remote server periodically, and like to drag and drop, cut and paste, and navigate via file browser to make things go quicker. i have alot of files to move around.

kioslaves are cool. i guess they were working for me and i didnt even know it. i especially like the audiocd one. and thanks for pointing out that asset, i will refer to it more often now that i know about it, and learn how to maximize the use for them.
using dolphin, i was having some problems initially (nothing to do with standard ftp however) because the directory is actually a 'webprotect' directory, so is accessed by as http://user.domain.com/location i had to manipulate the url for a while to get it to load as ftp://domain.com/public_html/users/uname/location, infact i couldnt log in at all using my username, i had to log into the server as root using this method. this is because the webprotect uses .htaccess for permissions, so as accessed from ftp:// i believe the server doesnt use the permissions from the .htaccess. so thats one hitch when using a filebrowser such as dolphin.
COOLEST thing i found so far, using the file browser, it supports RESUME. wow. thats nice! saves teh file as .part, then suggests a resume when transfer senses the file already exists.
im SURE there is a way around this, ill just have to play with it for a while. because i dont want to be logging in as root, i want to utilise the subdomain that i created for users access on the website storage folders.

Looking for package locking to avoid developing colisions

Hi,
I need a mechanism (either in database or some tool) which will allow me to lock the package for the time I am modifying it to prevent other developers from making changes at the same time. Is there such a mechanism built in Oracle it self or maybe you know some tool providing some functionality basing on some kind of repository?
Thanks!

If you are using a tool that reads the source straight from the database (USER_SOURCE), allows you to edit it, and then save it by CREATE OR REPLACE - ing it back into the database, then yes you run a big risk that developers "overwrite" each others changes.
The real solution to this problem is to not use the database as your environment of master sources, but instead use a version control system that uses a filesystem with lots of ascii-files as your master source environment.
If you run into the problem only now and then, and find introducing a version control system a too heavy solution for your problem, then you could also look into developing a few DDL triggers (triggers that fire when you CREATE OR REPLACE something) that copy the current source into a 'backup'-table, before having it overwritten by the create-or-replace ddl command. Then you can always query your backup-table to get the overwritten source changes.

[SOLVED] Looking for URW Gothic L font in .ttf format (...)

Hi,
I'm able to use URW Gothic L font while writing in OpenOffice.org, as default font for Conky and PyPanel (all with working Polish letters like - Ł, ł, Ó, ó, Ś, ś, Ż, ż, Ź, ź, Ę, ę, Ć, ć). Recently I wanted to test bmpanel with Arch theme. So I edited the theme config file and changed
clock_font DejaVuSans-14
to
clock_font URWGothicL-14
You can imagine how suprised I was, when executing bmpanel had no effect, but when I tried to lunch it from the terminal everything was (nearly) clear. Here's the output:
> bmpanel arch
starting bmpanel with theme: arch
only ttf files are supported
failed to load font: URWGothicL-14
fatal loading error
failed to load theme: arch
So it seems that URW Gothic L is not in .ttf format. I've looked through all known to me folders containing fonts, but with no luck. Where the hell is it stored?
These are font packages installed in my system (hope these are all of them, but maybe you know a better way of displaying a list of all font packages installed):
extra/gsfonts 8.11-4 [installed]
extra/ttf-dejavu 2.28-1 [installed]
extra/ttf-ms-fonts 2.0-2 [installed]
extra/xorg-fonts-100dpi 1.0.1-1 [installed] (xorg)
extra/xorg-fonts-75dpi 1.0.1-2 [installed] (xorg)
extra/xorg-fonts-alias 1.0.1-1 [installed]
extra/xorg-fonts-encodings 1.0.2-2 [installed]
extra/xorg-fonts-misc 1.0.0-3
Is there a way of getting URW Gothic L in proper .ttf format to use with bmpanel?
PS. If you need any other data, please say so, I'll provide it as fast as I can. I'm not an expert in those matters (yet ).
EDIT:
I've searched some more and it appears that Polish version of URW Gothic L is a Type1 font included in gsfonts package. Still searching for TTF equivalent or a maybe a way to make a Type1 font work with bmpanel.

[SOLVED]Looking for a tiling manager which supports multiple monitors

I use musca and I absolutely have no problems with it other than this :
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 04#p774104
I also tried emailing the musca distribution list but it bounced, so I am not sure how actively it is being maintained.
So I am on the lookout for a new tiling window manager. I know Xmonad supports multiple monitors, but I do not know haskell and I was hoping to find something else as well. Xmonad is also not a manual tiler.
So let me know if anyone of you knows of a tiler that has the above support.
EDIT : I have already looked at the Comparison of Tiling Window Managers over at the wiki. Infact I was the one who added Musca's entry in that table.

"i3 was created because wmii, our favorite window manager at the time, didn't provide some features we wanted (multi-monitor done right, for example), had some bugs, didn't progress since quite some time and wasn't easy to hack at all (source code comments/documentation completely lacking). Still, we think the wmii developers and contributors did a great job. Thank you for inspiring us to create i3. "
To change the border of the current client, you can use bn to use the normal border (including window title), bp to use a 1-pixel border (no window title) and bb to make the client borderless. There is also bt which will toggle the different border styles.
Examples:
bindsym Mod1+t bn
bindsym Mod1+y bp
bindsym Mod1+u bb
or put in your config file
new_window bb

[Solved] Looking for arch's original man page color codes

Hey everyone. I'm new to arch, and enjoying having everything begin to work out for me. One thing I was wondering though is what the color codes are that the man pages use before X is loaded or anything similar.
Per the archwiki, I'm using the following to provide myself with colored man pages in urxvt:
From .Xresources:
! colored man pages on rxvt-unicode-256color
URxvt.colorIT: #87af5f
URxvt.colorBD: #d7d7d7
URxvt.colorUL: #87afd7
This works, but it's not the same colorscheme as what arch starts out with initially. Anyone know what that colorscheme is? Or where I could look to find it?

(I think) I was talking about the colors that the man pages are in the TTY. Specifically, my processes is:
Boot up arch
Login (X yet not started)
Look at a man page - like the colors
Startx - boot to window manager (i3)
Look at a man page - want to change the colors
That said, I liked the colors the man pages had before installing Arch quite a bit, and wouldn't object to learning what those are.

And it looks like it covers what I need to know.
Thanks for your help!
And honestly, at this point I think I can figure out what colorscheme I like given the info at hand. So I think we can call this one taken care of.
If it interests anyone, I found a .sh script at the above link to display all 256 colors, then modified it to show the colors bolded, italicized etc. Here's the script:

Thank you guys.

I like the tutorials, and I have to do a lot of work with them now.
However, I hope find something good technicial then.

[SOLVED] Looking for a tiling WM with a certain feature

I've been using openbox/pekwm for a few years I recently tried tiling window managers again (tried them a few years ago and hated them) and I'm hooked but after trying just about all of the popular ones and reading the man pages/web sites I can't find any that have a certain feature I'd like (maybe I've just completely missed it). What I'd like is to have firefox in the master area (left hand side, about 50-60% width), whatever else I have open (usually one or two terminals and thunar) in the slave area and then pidgin buddy list open in a small thin area on the right hand side of the screen.
I'm not fussed about status/task bars or anything like that (but being able to add my own would be a bonus), prefer no window borders (like i3 or wmii) and would prefer something easy to configure (I don't mind learning haskell if xmonad is perfect for my needs but I'd rather avoid awesome as I've heard the config changes often and I'm not too keen on the built in task bar etc)
Thanks

descendent87 wrote:what's the difference in dynamic and manual tyling managers?
Dynamic tilers have one or more pre-defined layouts for you to choose from and arrange the frames accordingly, while in manual tilers, you choose the size/arrangement of frames yourself.
What I'd ideally like is something where I can set so that firefox/chromium/uzbl (whatever browser I'm using) always opens in the master area, pidgin always opens in the far right hand side and anything else (terminals, thunar, mplayer) always opens in the slave erea (inbetween web browser and pidgin).
Well, this is doable with musca, though I've never even tried to set it up that way Though it's probably along the lines of:
* Put commands in a ~/.musca_start file
* In this file, set up frames as you want using commands like hsplit, vsplit, etc.
* Set focus to the frame you want browser to appear in (also with above commands), start browser, dedicate frame to browser so no other window will appear in the same frame
* focus next frame, start Pidgin
* etc.
Unfortunately, this won't work with multiple browser windows, for example, since the dedicate command won't allow several browser windows to appear in the same frame. Also, my solution is *very* ugly (seems more like an Excel macro to me rather than a properly scripted solution ). There's probably a lot more possible with proper use of wmctrl, but I never got around doing much with it. If you really do want full control over your layout, I should probably recommend Xmonad, but I've had zero experience with it (a >500MiB ghc is a little spooky).

Looking for software like VirtualDJ in windows.

Thanks for all.

yeah problem with FTP is that a lot of our clients block it
Azure looks ok for small programs, but we are a reseller of large pieces of software that are multi DVD, 2-5 GB iso files. So for one version of software there could be 5 releases. and different clients should only be able to access their release.

Looking for wmii-like xmonad config

Hi everyone.
I've been using wmii for 1-2 weeks and I feel right at home. The only thing I configured was to change the mod-key from Mod1 to Mod4. It manages windows well in a way that seems natural to me. However, it's limited. I can't resize clients with the keyboard.
I can do that in xmonad! Plus, I'm slowly learning Haskell, and configuring through understanding the short source code of the WM seems ideal.
I want to try xmonad. I don't have the courage to understand everything before having a comfortable environment, and I don't want to spend time in an uncomfortable environment in the hope that I will improve it in the future. So I'm asking your help for a jumpstart.
Please, I'd like a config that manages my windows like this:
* The clients do not move around from one column to another unless I tell them explicitly. They do not move or resize upon getting focus.
* I can move focus between clients with Mod4+h,j,k,l
* I can resize clients with something like Shift-Mod4+h,j,k,l
That's all I need to get comfortable. Does anyone have this at hand? Otherwise I'll stay with wmii and slowly RTFHaskellM.

Windows don't normally resize when you focus them
The docs are pretty good; if you follow the examples, nothing goes wrong, and if you have an idea of what is going on, you can make quite flexible, and safe changes.
I use something like this, (except the mosaicAlt layout) with a couple more extensions (submap, prompts, windowNavigation...) and keybindings added on.
import XMonad
import XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog
import XMonad.Hooks.UrgencyHook
import XMonad.Hooks.ManageDocks
import XMonad.Layout.ResizableTile
import XMonad.Layout.NoBorders
import XMonad.Util.EZConfig
import XMonad.Util.Run
import System.IO (hPutStrLn)
main = do
xmobar <- spawnPipe "xmobar"
xmonad $ withUrgencyHook NoUrgencyHook $ defaults xmobar
defaults xmobar = defaultConfig
{ modMask = mod4Mask
, layoutHook = smartBorders $ avoidStruts $ ResizableTall 1 (3/100) (1/2) [] ||| Full
, logHook = dynamicLogWithPP defaultPP
{ ppCurrent = xmobarColor "white" ""
, ppOutput = hPutStrLn xmobar
, ppTitle = xmobarColor "orange" "" . shorten 110
, ppVisible = wrap "(" ")"
, ppUrgent = xmobarColor "green" "" . wrap "^" ""
, ppLayout = xmobarColor "green" ""
`additionalKeysP`
[("M-h", sendMessage MirrorShrink)
,("M-l", sendMessage MirrorExpand)
,("M-b", sendMessage ToggleStruts)
And no nasty piping via shell script to the status bar! Yay haskell.
So it appears that xmonad is succeeding at increasing the use of haskell.
PS: you need xmobar (since that is easiest to set up).
~/.xmobarrc:
Config { font = "-*-profont-*-*-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
, bgColor = "black"
, fgColor = "grey"
, position = Top
, commands = [ Run Weather "CYYZ" ["-L","18","-H","27","--normal","green","--high","red","--low","lightblue"] 36000

, sepChar = "%"
, alignSep = "}{"
, template = " %StdinReader% }{ %cpu% | %memory% - %swap% | %eth0% - %wlan0% | <fc=orange>%mydate%</fc> | %battery% "
edit: import System.IO will bring hPutStrLn into scope. Odd, since it did work for me without it.
