[SOLVED] need a little final installation help

Hey,
first of all, i just installed the latest version of arch but I need to get the following things working:
wifi (didn't know what firmware i needed during install and just used eth0)
blue tooth (for my bluetooth mouse)
My external hard drive wont show up? do i need to set something up for this? the hard drive is fine
Im running Gnome as my X DE
Logging in as root
laptop is hp pavilion dv5
Wifi:
Here is a few outputs which might help:

Keep in mind I was connected via eth0 during this process.
Basically, im pretty sure i need to install some firmware and or drivers.. i just dont know what. I want the wireless to connect at startup.
Bluetooth:
Basically the only way i can get it to work at the moment is to do
# /etc/rc.d/dbus start
# /etc/rc.d/bluetooth start
# blueman-applet
the dbus is now starting at startup even, but bluetooth isnt..
# DAEMONS
# Daemons to start at boot-up (in this order)
# - prefix a daemon with a ! to disable it
# - prefix a daemon with a @ to start it up in the background
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng dbus network netfs bluetooth crond)
Im not sure if the bluetooth daemon is correct either?
External Hard Drive doesnt apper in my file manager:
External drive shows up in nautilus and thunar, but permission to transfer files is denied... why? I did:
#cd /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d
#gedit 55-myconf.pkla
Added this to file:

Any help/guidence would be much appreciated! I Have been using Ubuntu for the last 18 months and have always wanted to install Arch! And im keen to get to know this operating system well and be apart of the Arch community

[SOLVED] Need a little help with ACPI handler.sh script.

By using ACPI I'm trying to get my laptop to hibernate at critical power state. So far I've made a few test scripts to test how to do this, with one of these scripts I'm stuck. My scripting skills are not that good to solve it.
This is the script:
if [ `awk '{print $3}' /proc/acpi/battery/C1E9/state` == "ok" ]
then
logger "battery is ok"
else
logger "battery is not ok"
fi
If I run the script I get an error (while "battery is not ok" is logged):
┌─[~]
└─> ./test2
./test2: line 1: [: too many arguments
┌─[~]
└─>
When I run the awk-command from the script, I get the following output:
┌─[~]
└─> awk '{print $3}' /proc/acpi/battery/C1E9/state
ok
discharging
2341
1824
10969
┌─[~]
└─>
I think the problem lies in the multiple output of the awk-command, but I'm stuck in solving it.
Any help would be great.

[solved] Need a little help with sed and regular expressions

Hello!
I am shure this is something easy for most of you
I want to make a script, which converts filenames of my ripped MP3s (replaces '_' with spaces, removes leading track numbers...)
But I have some problems:
j=$(echo $j | sed 's/_\+/ /g')
j=$(echo $j | sed 's/^[0-9]{0,3}//g')
j=$(echo $j | sed 's/[^ ]-[^ ]/ - /g')
j=$(echo $j | sed 's/_\+/ /g') << this is working fine (converts all "_" to spaces)
j=$(echo $j | sed 's/^[0-9]{0,3}//g') << is NOT working, why??
For Example in "01-somebody_feat_someone-somemusic.mp3" the leading "01" number is NOT being removed..
j=$(echo $j | sed 's/[^ ]-[^ ]/ - /g') << how can I insert spaces before and after the "-"?
So that "someone-somemusic" becomes "someone - somemusic" (but only where "-" is surrounded by letters)
Last edited by cyberius (2011-07-27 18:50:54)

For sed, you must escape { and } to use them as you want (just slap a \ before them).
For the last expression, capture the letter before/after the dash -- use $ and $ -- and then substitute it for something like "\1 -" and then "- \1". You'll want to split this into two pieces, one for the front and one for the back so you can get "somemusic -someband" the way you want without a bunch of cases.
Edit: Or, you could just do a replace for "-" to be " - " and then have another expression to reduce spaces. I see you've used \+ before, so I'm guessing you can figure that out
Also, sed has the -e switch so you can do multiple different expressions with one invocation.
Also (also), have you looked into something like Picard with automatic track renaming? You can even customize how they are renamed.
Edit (2): Also^3, check out prename. There are different versions, ones which use PCRE and ones that use other standards, but it is for renaming files based on regular expressions, which is what you're doing. In any case, you might want to put you script into the User made scripts thread when you feel more comfortable and get some more critiquing, if you're interested.

Need a little bit of help with substring...

Im very new at java programming, and need a bit of help with a problem:
Here is what I have:
System.out.print("Enter a string : ");
Scanner scan = new Scanner (System.in);
stringy = scan.nextLine();
Now I want to split the string "stringy" like this: h:hi:hip:hipp:hippo
I know this uses substring, but I can't figure out how to do it.
Any help would be great, thanks!

I know about the length method, what I dont knowis
how to use the length and substring methodstogether
to solve the problem i mentioned initially. There are three ingredients to perform this task:
- String.length()
- String.substring(int start, int end)
- for-statement:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/nutsandbo
lts/for.html
Pseudo code:IN <- input String from user
LOOP FROM 0 -> IN.length()
print IN.substring(?, ?)
print ":"
END LOOP
Remember, Im very new. ;)Remember that by just handing you the solution, you
will learn far less than finding things out by
yourself.
; )Thanks a lot, i should be able to figure it out froom the pseudo code. :)

Need a little QoS setup help

previously owned a netgear wndr37av and quite promptly returned it. certain functions just didn't work. and things seemed sluggish. anyhow, went with a e4200 and thus far i am quite pleased. only thing i need help with now is setting up QoS properly as i've never had a router with this feature. i understand the priciple and how to setup rules. what i need help with is.......
for instance i have a ps3, laptop, desktop (soon as i get all the parts from newegg), directv dvr box, printer, cell phones etc. but the main focal points are the ps3, laptop, and desktop. obviously i want the ps3 to have priority over everything else for gaming and netflix/vudu. so i would assume simply giving it's mac address highest priority will take care of that.. but when it comes to the desktop which will be the main source of any torrent downloads. how do i push torrents down on the list but still keep the other programs on the desktop (i.e. - firefox, youtube, any games, whatever else) supplied with a higher priority that would only be trumphed by the ps3?
i hope i described my issue well. if not feel free to ask and i'll try to elaborate more.
thanks

Settings up QoS on your Router you can follow this link.

I need a little bit of help if possible that is

[SOLVED] Need BCM4312 wifi during installation

To install my system, I need to connect to the internet via wifi. My system has a a Broadcom BSM4312 802.11 a/b/g (rev 01) inbuilt wi-fi card.
So, going through the guide brings me to this step:
iwconfig
Which lists the interfaces eth0 and lo. eth0 being my wired ethernet adapter. The same command on my installed Ubuntu system lists eth0 (wired), eth1 (wireless) and lo. So it's just not there while installing.
Further research in the wiki brings me to this page: [wiki]Broadcom_BCM4312[/wiki].
There's a PKGBUILD in AUR. Or, you can download the driver from here, where you will also find a README file.
Which is somewhat problematic, as I have no wifi to install/download this while installing. How do I solve this problem?

@wonder
Worked fine!
a) sudo pacman -S git
b) created a new folder
mkdir wifi
cd wifi
git clone http://git.bu3sch.de/git/b43-tools.git
cd b43-tools/fwcutter
make
cd ..
export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware"
wget http://downloads.openwrt.org/sources/br … .4.tar.bz2
tar xjf broadcom-wl-4.178.10.4.tar.bz2
cd broadcom-wl-4.178.10.4/linux
sudo ../../fwcutter/b43-fwcutter -w "$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR" wl_apsta.o
c) reboot
Then... the Wireless indicator turned on that means it was enabled.
Considering I was using ArchBang 2 RC2 that already comes with Wicd, I only clicked over the applet that opened a window with my wireless SSID and a rectangle to put my WPA key.
That's it! Another and easy way to have my bcm4312 working out of the box.
Thanks for showing me a new way.

[SOLVED]New Arch Linux ISO Installation Help.

Hi All,
I am trying to install Arch Linux using new ISO. For some reason I am unable to log into Arch Forums on Windows and I am writing this on my tablet. I will add more info (proper quote, etc.) as soon as I am able to log in a laptop browser. That being said I am trying to install Arch using new ISO. Here is what I did.
Partition using cfdisk /, /home , /swap and /boot.
Format all these in ext4.
Create folders in mnt - root, home, swap, boot.
mount partitions in mnt folders.
Pacstrap /mnt base base-devel
Error
ERROR: /mnt is not a mount point!
I install in /mnt/root which probably doesnt touch other partitions like home boot and swap.
I follow other steps on installation wiki and reboot takes me back to windows.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.

You don't need a root folder. /mnt is the root mount point. Before you mount boot and home:
mount /dev/sdax /mnt
where "x" is the number of your /root partition.
then
mkdir /mnt/boot
mount /dev/sdax /mnt/boot
mkdir /mnt/home
mount /dev/sdax /mnt/home
(replace "x" in all the /dev/sdax with the correct partitions.)
Error
ERROR: /mnt is not a mount point!
you should have stopped here and posted or tried to figure out what you did wrong.
The edited Beginner's Guide is very clear about this. You should read it.

Nokia 720 Problems - Need a little bit of help her...

Hi,
Few Problems with a 10 day nokia 720:-
1. Earphone volume while in a call - I can't change the earphone volume while in a call. This is very frustating. Is this a problem with my nokia 720 or is this a general issue with all 720.
2. Microphone doesn't work in certain directions, while in a sleeping pose or sometimes sitting. This has never happened to me in around 6-7 phones that I have used. Please tell me if this is a problem for my phone or device issue.
3. When I switch off mobile data connection, my overall mobile connection is lost after some time. Also I am experiencing too frequent call drops, Also my network just goes out of the picture, it just doesn't detect network. Facing a lot of issues with this,
4. Sometimes it zooms out and doesn't come back to its original position. I don't know what is the problem with this. I have to restart my phone to get back in normal position.
5. My bookmyshow app doesn't work after the update [this can be ignored ]
I expected more out of my nokia lumia but hard to say if the problems are with my phone only or for all nokia 720. Hoping for some help in this forum.
Also please tell me if nokia will change my device if this is a problem with only my device and not every device. Please help.
Thanks in advance

the screen zoom problem and mic problem is there in many phones.
hv not been able to sort mic /call drop issue, bt for zoom
the phone zooms by double tap on any screen, this is a feature in ease of access. go to settings->ease of access->screen magnifier->off.

Hi, i'm trying to make my java files runable from other machines and using the jar utility to do it. I have 10 files that get added to my jar file, and they are as follows:
Tester.class, Deck.class, Suit.class, SavitchIn.class, Player.class Card.class, Pips.class, CardSet.class, Hand.class, BlackJackHand.class
I am using this command to jar them:

my public static void main is in Tester.class so I modified the manifest to include Main-Class: Tester.class
now when i try to run it with this command: java -jar Tester.jar
i get this error:

Need a little more audiobook help please

I received some excellent advice here regarding "how to" with audiobooks. I had a follow-up question but it might have gotten "lost" so I would like to repeat it.
I transferred the books to audiobooks and I did the options as were recommended but when I go to audiobooks in the music main folder the books do not appear to be in sequence - ie. first listing might be disk 3 chapter 8, next listing disk 3 chapter 2, next listing disk 1 chapter 10, etc. My question is if I manually go to disk 1 chapter 1 to start will my iPod know to automatically go to disk 1 chapter 2 wherever that listing is and so on? Thanks.

You may have to go back to the info screen > options and make sure the track and disc info are all in the right order as well. If that info is correct, then they should play in the right order.

+it says that they were "removed improperly"+
You have to go to the iPod's icon on your computer (or the flash drive's icon), select it and eject it there before removing it. Otherwise, data can be corrupted and/or lost. Repeatedly removing it without ejecting it from the desktop can cause it not to be recognized any longer.
If your iBook is a "late 2001" model. It should have a reset button. Check out the chart here to make sure which model iBook you have:

+i get prompt to this screen that shows the world and then a folder with a ? mark but then after a few sec it boots right up+
It's trying to find a network volume from which to boot.
Once it's booted up, go to System Preferences > Startup Disk, and select your Mac OS X startup volume. Then close System Preferences. The next time you start up, it should start up without looking for a network volume.

[SOLVED] need a little final installation help
