{{Warning|Do not edit this page unless you are a channel op in #archlinux. You are welcome to use the discussion page.}}<br />
<br />
==Introduction==<br />
The official Arch Linux [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat IRC] channel is '''#archlinux''' on the [http://www.freenode.net/ Freenode] network.<br />
<br />
There are also a number of other channels dedicated to Arch Linux maintained by community members, see: http://www.archlinux.org/irc/ for a listing.<br />
<br />
===Usage===<br />
To join the channels, you need an irc client. Wikipedia has a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_IRC_clients list of irc clients].<br />
/connect irc.freenode.net<br />
/join #archlinux<br />
<br />
==#archlinux - The official support channel==<br />
This is the main channel. The central topic for the channel is support and general discussion about Arch Linux.<br />
<br />
The channel is currently +R. That means that you have to register and identify with the NickServ service before you can talk in the channel:<br />
/msg nickserv help register<br />
/msg nickserv help identify<br />
<br />
===#archlinux rules===<br />
* '''Follow the guidelines'''<br />
: [http://freenode.net/policy.shtml Freenode network policy]<br />
: [http://freenode.net/channel_guidelines.shtml Freenode channel guidelines]<br />
: [[IRC Channel#Channel_Guidelines|#archlinux channel guidelines]]<br />
* '''Client settings and bots'''<br />
** If you want to bring a bot into the channel, then ask an operator ''before'' you do so.<br />
** Auto-response in channel or in pm is not allowed (the only exception is 'away' responses at nick highlight in pm).<br />
* '''Channelbot usage'''<br />
** There is only one official channel bot. 'phrik n=archbot@archlinux/bot/phrik'<br />
** Try to limit the bot usage in channel. Remember, you can '/query phrik' when the output is not needed in-channel.<br />
** No spamming of bot commands<br />
* '''Advertising'''<br />
** Advertising is not allowed unless an op has given you permission to do so.<br />
* '''Content/links'''<br />
** The main topic of the channel is support for and discussion about Arch Linux.<br />
** Talk about general software and hardware is allowed if it does not interfere with the main topic of the channel.<br />
** Anything that is not covered by the previous statements is handled on a case-by-case basis at the op's discretion.<br />
<br />
===#archlinux guidelines===<br />
The main language of the channel is English. If you need help in another language, see the link above regarding other Arch Linux channels. You can also do /query alis list #archlinux*.<br />
<br />
The channel topic often contains useful and/or important information. It is good practice to read it from time to time. You can use /topic to read it if your client does not display it.<br />
<br />
Do not start flamewars, also avoid the "20 lines of 'foo > bar'" discussions.<br />
<br />
Do not feed the trolls, if someone is trolling and/or baiting, then ignore them. Also feel free to notify a channel operator.<br />
<br />
Spamming the channel is Bad (with a capital B). Use a pastebin if you have to paste something long (more than 3 lines).<br />
[http://pastie.org Pastie] and [http://codepad.org Codepad] are two popular ones within the Arch community. Several pastebin programs exist in the repos, to output the result of a command to a file use <code>program &> program-output.txt</code>.<br />
<br />
phrik (the channel bot) is '''not''' your personal toy, abusing him is not allowed. If you want to try out commands or look trough the help function, then do it in a /query or /msg. Example: /query phrik help <command><br />
<br />
Do not ask to ask, if anyone is alive or if anyone uses something, just state your question. <br />
<br />
Help us help you, [http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html ask smart questions]. It is easier for us to help you when you ask good/smart questions.<br />
<br />
'''Ask''' for help, do not ''demand'' it, if nobody replies, wait for a few minutes before you restate your question. Most questions get answered by 'just another user', just like you. Even the developers that frequent the channel do so on their own time, by their own accord, by their own free will.<br />
<br />
Do not be shy, feel free to help others, 'everyone' has something to contribute. The channel is a community effort to provide support, and depends on volunteers.<br />
<br />
Help yourself before you ask. Read the [http://wiki.archlinux.org/ Wiki] and ''man'' pages, search the [http://bbs.archlinux.org BBS] and/or [http://www.google.com Google]. Sticking to this method will often get you an answer faster, and you may just happen to learn something from it. <br />
<br />
When asking for help, always reply to people that ask you for more information, if you do not know the answer then say so.<br />
<br />
Set a good example; be what you want other people to be. If you act like a moron, then people will respond to you as if you were one. The behavior of those already in the channel is also a big influence on those new to the channel. If you want the channel to be a friendly place, then be friendly to others.<br />
<br />

<br />
The official Archlinux [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat IRC] channel is '''#archlinux''' on the [http://www.freenode.net/ irc.freenode.net] network.<br />
<br />
See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_IRC_clients this] for a list and comparison of clients. Regardless of which of them you prefer to install and use, connect to the network and join the channel.<br />
/connect irc.freenode.net<br />
/join #archlinux<br />
<br />
'''Note:'''<br><br />
The channel is currently +R. That means that you have to register and identify with the NickServ service before you can talk in the channel.<br />
/msg nickserv help register<br />
<br />
<br />
This is mainly a ''support'' channel. For a list of other Arch-related channels, see [http://www.archlinux.org/irc/ this].<br />
<br />
== Channel Rules ==<br />
* '''Follow the guidelines''' - they are meant to make your stay a pleasant one.<br />
** [http://freenode.net/policy.shtml Freenode network policy].<br />
** [http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ArchChannel#Channel_Guidelines #archlinux channel guidelines.]<br />
* '''Client setting and bots'''<br />
** If you want to bring a bot into the channel, then ask an operator ''before'' you do so.<br />
** Please, turn off auto-rejoin.<br />
** Don't use public away notifiers and nicks. Use your client's silent/away function instead.<br />
* '''Advertising''' - not allowed in general. It will get you locked out and reported to a higher authority.<br />
** Of course, suggesting to someone to go to #foo for help with their problem with ''foo'' is not considered advertising.<br />
* '''Stupid rules to give people closure'''<br />
** No soccer.<br />
** No other sports.<br />
** No drugs.<br />
** No discussing your favorite brand of alcohol to show how manly you are.<br />
** No talking about drugs to show how manly you are.<br />
** No.<br />
** No politics.<br />
** No debating the channel operators decision for kicking/banning/whatever for half an hour.<br />
** Off-topic chat is not allowed "because nothing was really happening in the channel."<br />
** Debating whether off-topic chat is allowed when the channel is quiet is not allowed.<br />
<br />
== Channel Guidelines ==<br />
* The main language of the channel is English. If you need help in another language, see the link above regarding other Archlinux channels. Remember, you can always create your own.<br />
* Try to keep the channel somewhat family/work safe. No porn, gore, windows, politicians or anything similar unless absolutely required to aid good faith. In short, be ''on topic'' as much as possible; support. If you can't resist the urge to talk about your religion or your favorite toenail, then take it to '''#archlinux-offtopic'''.<br />
* Don't start flamewars. DE/WM/$EDITOR/similar discussions are allowed, but if the temperature rises above 26&deg;C then you are expected to drop it or move on to the ''offtopic'' channel.<br />
* Don't feed the trolls.<br />
* Spamming the channel is Bad (with a capital B). Use a pastebin if you have to paste something long (usually more than 3 lines). [http://pastie.caboo.se/ Pastie] and [http://www.rafb.net/paste/ rafb|Nopaste] are two popular ones within the Arch community. There is also a cli frontend for rafb:<br />
pacman -S nopaste<br />
* phrik (the channel bot) is not your personal toy, abusing him is not allowed. If you want to try out commands or look trough the help function, then do it in a /query or /msg (alternatively ''PM'').<br />
* Don't ask to ask, if anyone is alive or if anyone uses something. Just state your question. Even if we don't use ''foo'', we might know enough about it to help you.<br />
* '''Ask''' for help, don't ''demand'' it. If nobody replies, wait for a few minutes before you restate your question. And yes, [http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html ask smart questions].<br />
* Help yourself before you ask. Read the [http://wiki.archlinux.org/ Wiki] and ''man'' pages, search the [http://bbs.archlinux.org BBS] and/or [http://www.google.com Google]. Sticking to this method will often get you an answer faster, and you may just happen to learn something from it. <br />
* When asking for help, always reply to people that ask you for more information. If you don't know the answer then a "I don't know" is a lot better than silence.<br />
* Set a good example, be what you want other people to be. If you act like a moron, then people will respond to you as if you were one. The behavior of those already in the channel is also a big influence on those new to the channel. If you want the channel to be a friendly place, then be friendly to others.<br />
* Don't be shy. Feel free to help others. All the support in the channel is provided by volunteers. Most questions get answered by "just another user", just like you. Even the ''devs'' that frequent the channel do so on their own time, by their own accord, by their own free will.<br />

<div>[[Category:Getting and installing Arch (English)]]<br />
[[Category:HOWTOs (English)]]<br />
<br />
'''WARNING: THIS ARTICLE IS INCOMPLETE!''' Visit the Arch forum thread link below to get information on installing Arch Linux on the Asus EEE PC. <br />
<br />
Most of this information is from the [http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=297632 Arch Forum]. You can also find a lot of helpful information from the [http://forum.eeeuser.com/ EEEUser Forum]. There is also a nice Arch Linux installation guide on the [http://wiki.eeeuser.com/installingarchlinux EeeUser Wiki].<br />
<br />
==Before You Begin==<br />
<br />
===Avoiding Pitfalls===<br />
<br />
The install is pretty normal, except that you'll need to [http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=890 avoid the pitfalls] of our alternative Linux install:<br />
<br />
# Never choose to use a journaling file system on the SSD partitions<br />
# Never use a swap partition on the SSD<br />
# Edit your new installation fstab to mount the SSD partitions "noatime"<br />
# Never log messages or error log to the SSD<br />
<br />
The rules ensure that we won't reach the maximum limit of writes on our SSD faster than we should.<br />
<br />
===Choosing Your Installation Media===<br />
<br />
The EEE PC does not have an optical drive installed on the machine. This means you will need to install Arch Linux through one of the alternative methods:<br />
<br />
# External USB CD-ROM drive<br />
# [[Install_from_USB_stick|USB pen drive]] (Recommended)<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, the kernel does not include drivers for a LAN or Wireless install.<br />
<br />
==Installing Arch Linux==<br />
<br />
Note: if you're using the USB pen drive as your media, then [[Install_from_USB_stick#After_booting_from_the_USB_stick:|follow these instructions]] to create the installation USB stick.<br />
<br />
===Download the necessary drivers/modules===<br />
<br />
Since the stock kernel doesn't supports either the Eee ethernet or wireless network cards, you might want to download the ethernet or wireless drivers/modules that you need and copy them to the installation USB stick.<br />
<br />
*You can download ethernet driver source from [http://people.redhat.com/csnook/atl2/ here].<br />
*Wireless driver can be downloaded from [http://snapshots.madwifi.org/madwifi-ng/madwifi-ng-r2756-20071018.tar.gz here]. <br />
**The wireless driver requires a patch to make it work with the Eee PC. The patch can be download from [http://madwifi.org/attachment/ticket/1679/madwifi-ng-0933.ar2425.20071130.i386.patch?format=raw here]<br />
<br />
*If you want to use dkite's eeemodules package, you should download the package from his [http://members.shaw.ca/dkite website] and put it on USB for ease of installing. Especially important is the '''eeemodules-2.6.22.9-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz''', because we will need to install this package after installation for wireless and ethernet to work.<br />
<br />
===Booting Arch the installation CD/USB===<br />
<br />
Please refers to [[Beginners_Guide]] for detail instruction. Ideally, your CD/USB should boot up just fine on Eee PC without any need for additional options.<br />
<br />
===Start the Installation===<br />
<br />
If you are installing from the USB, then issue<br />
<br />
mount /dev/sd[x] /src<br />
<br />
To mount the usb.<br />
<br />
Then just run<br />
<br />
/arch/setup<br />
<br />
To start the installation just like normal.<br />
<br />
===Prepare Hard Drive===<br />
<br />
The default Eee PC drive is split up into four partitions (here is [http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=1805 some information] about the partitioning): <br />
<br />
* It is easiest to wipe the existing partitions and use one or two partitions for your install. One partition would be just '/', and two partitions would be '/boot' and '/'.<br />
* Choose "NONE" for swap (see #2 in [[Installing_Arch_Linux_on_the_Asus_EEE_PC#Avoiding_Pitfalls|Avoiding Pitfalls]]).<br />
* Select "ext2" as your filesystem (see #1 in [[Installing_Arch_Linux_on_the_Asus_EEE_PC#Avoiding_Pitfalls|Avoiding Pitfalls]]).<br />
<br />
===Select Packages===<br />
<br />
If you are installing from USB, then choose SRC as your source.<br />
<br />
In addition to the '''BASE''' category, we also need all the packages in the '''DEVEL''' category for compiling our ethernet/wireless drivers.<br />
<br />
If you intended to use wireless, then you'll also need the ''wireless_tools'' package from '''SUPPORT''' category.<br />
<br />
===Configure System===<br />
<br />
Edit /etc/rc.conf and add asus_acpi to the MODULES array:<br />
<br />
MODULES = (... asus_acpi ...) <br />
<br />
Arch will complains about this, pay no attention to the error message because once we install the patched version of asus_acpi module using dkite's package the error message will disappear.<br />
<br />
Make these edits to "/etc/fstab":<br />
<br />
* Add "noatime" to the options of your mounts (see #3 in [[Installing_Arch_Linux_on_the_Asus_EEE_PC#Avoiding_Pitfalls|Avoiding Pitfalls]])<br />
* '''(OPTIONAL)''' Add a new line: "tmpfs /var/log tmpfs size=1M 0 0" (WARNING: this will delete all your logs! See #4 in [[Installing_Arch_Linux_on_the_Asus_EEE_PC#Avoiding_Pitfalls|Avoiding Pitfalls]])<br />
** To save your startup/shutdown logs, look at the pitfalls link above.<br />
<br />
===Install Network Adapter Driver===<br />
<br />
After the installation, The first thing you will noticed after booting into your newly installed Arch Linux is that the network adapters (both ethernet and wireless) are not working. To install the drivers, mount the USB stick that contains the drivers by issues the following commands:<br />
<br />
mkdir /mnt/usb<br />
mount /dev/sd[x] /mnt/usb<br />
<br />
Then follow the following instructions to install your network driver.<br />
<br />
====Atl2 ethernet driver====<br />
<br />
You can download ethernet driver source from [http://people.redhat.com/csnook/atl2/ here].<br />
<br />
Extract the sources. You may need to modify the kernel version listed in the Makefile.<br />
<br />
make clean<br />
make<br />
cp atl2.ko /lib/modules/2.6.24-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net # Change 2.6.24 as needed<br />
depmod<br />
<br />
====Atheros wireless ethernet driver====<br />
<br />
Instructions from http://wiki.eeeuser.com/ubuntu#wireless_internet_using_native_madwifi_drivers to patch madwifi. This replaces the Arch madwifi packages.<br />
<br />
wget 'http://madwifi.org/attachment/ticket/1679/madwifi-ng-0933.ar2425.20071130.i386.patch?format=raw'<br />
wget http://snapshots.madwifi.org/madwifi-ng/madwifi-ng-r2756-20071018.tar.gz<br />
tar zxvf madwifi-ng-r2756-20071018.tar.gz<br />
cd madwifi-ng-r2756-20071018<br />
patch -p0 < ../madwifi-ng-0933.ar2425.20071130.i386.patch<br />
make clean<br />
make<br />
sudo make install<br />
<br />
If you have already downloaded both the driver source & the patch and have moved them into the USB, then both move the driver source & the patch into the same directory and issues the following command:<br />
<br />
tar zxvf madwifi-ng-r2756-20071018.tar.gz<br />
cd madwifi-ng-r2756-20071018<br />
patch -p0 < ../madwifi-ng-0933.ar2425.20071130.i386.patch<br />
make clean<br />
make<br />
sudo make install<br />
<br />
Working against stock kernel.<br />
<br />
====Install wireless and ethernet drivers using dkite's eeemodules Package====<br />
<br />
Another way to install both wireless and ethernet drivers/modules, instate of having to build and install the drivers/modules yourself, is to use dkite's eeemodules Package, which included both wireless and ethernet drivers/modules, among other things.<br />
<br />
Since Don't Panic installation CD comes with kernel version 2.6.22.9, we will need to use '''eeemodules-2.6.22.9-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz''' package, which you can get from [http://members.shaw.ca/dkite his website], if you haven't got it already.<br />
<br />
Mount the USB that contains the package and install it with this command:<br />
<br />
pacman -Uf eeemodules-2.6.22.9-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz<br />
<br />
Then load the modules with<br />
<br />
depmod<br />
<br />
Restart and now you should have a working wireless/ethernet connection.<br />
<br />
===Install All the Necessary Modules===<br />
<br />
After you have installed and configured the driver, proceed to upgrade the system with pacman -Syu command. After the upgrade is complete, it is the time to decide which methods you would like to use to install the modules:<br />
<br />
'''ATTENTION:''' Do ''NOT'' restart after upgrade the system and before you install the modules using one of the following methods, or your hardware (wifi, ethernet, etc.) ''WILL'' stop functioning.<br />
<br />
====Install modules using dkite's eeemodules package====<br />
<br />
'''dkite''' have created a package that contains all the necessary modules for wifi, ethernet connection, acpi and video camera hardware that comes with the Eee PC. His package is to be use with the stock kernel. <br />
<br />
The following is the list of hardware/functions that are known to work with dkite's eeemodules Package:<br />
<br />
*Wireless <br />
*Ethernet <br />
*Webcam <br />
*Suspend/Resume<br />
<br />
You can get the package [http://members.shaw.ca/dkite from his website]. <br />
<br />
Currently there are three pre-complied package:<br />
<br />
#'''eeemodules-2.6.22.9-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz''' for use with Don't Panic kernel.<br />
#'''eeemodules-0.0.3-2.6.24.1.2-i686.pkg.tar.gz''' for the 2.6.24.14-2 kernel.<br />
<br />
If you have newer or other version of kernel26, then you will need to download '''eeemodules.tar.gz''', which contains PKGBUILD and all the necessary files, and build the package yourself. <br />
<br />
*'''ATTENTION:''' You will also need to rebuild the package, using eeemodules.tar.gz, every time you upgrade your kernel, or else your hardware (wifi, ethernet, etc.) will stop functioning.<br />
<br />
=====Installation Instructions=====<br />
<br />
Install the package with the following command:<br />
<br />
pacman -Uf eeemodules-<pkgver>.tar.gz<br />
<br />
Then run a depmod command:<br />
<br />
depmod<br />
<br />
'''Attention:''' Do ''not'' forget to run the depmod command after installing the package, otherwise the various hardware won't function! <br />
<br />
If you want to use the webcam then you might also need to load the asus_acpi module. Edit the /etc/rc.conf file and insert asus_acpi into MODULES array:<br />
<br />
MODULES = (... asus_acpi ...)<br />
<br />
===Eee repository from toofishes===<br />
toofishes created a repository for the eee. You can find some basic packages like Pentium-M-optimized kernel and needed modules. Add<br />
[eee]<br />
Server = http://code.toofishes.net/packages/eee<br />
to your /etc/pacman.conf to use the repository.<br />
<br />
====Package List====<br />
<br />
Currently, toofishes' repository contains the following packages:<br />
<br />
*'''kernel-eee''' <br />
customized kernel for Eee<br />
*'''linux-uvc-eee-svn''' <br />
webcam driver for Eee<br />
*'''luvcview''' <br />
webcam program for testing webcam driver<br />
*'''madwifi-ng-eee''' <br />
wifi driver for Eee<br />
<br />
====Installation Instruction====<br />
<br />
Simply use pacman to install the package that you need. For a working system, you'll need at least 3 packages: kernel-eee (the kernel), linux-uvc-eee-svn (webcam driver) and madwifi-ng-eee (the wifi driver).<br />
<br />
Install the packages with this command:<br />
<br />
pacman -Sy kernel-eee linux-uvc-eee-svn madwifi-ng-eee<br />
<br />
'''ATTENTION:''' dkite's eeemodules package conflicts with the madwifi-ng-eee package. You need to remove dkite's eeemodules package before you can install toofishes madfwifi-ng-eee package.<br />
<br />
Then, add the following to /boot/grub/menu.lst; note that no initrd is needed:<br />
# (2) Arch Linux<br />
title Arch Linux EEE kernel<br />
root (hd0,0)<br />
kernel /boot/vmlinuzeee root=/dev/sda1 ro<br />
<br />
Restart and select Arch Linux EEE kernel from the grub boot menu.<br />
<br />
==Getting Everything Working==<br />
<br />
By now, you should have Arch installed. The following is the guide on how to get the rest of your system working.<br />
<br />
===Xorg===<br />
<br />
You have two choices for video on the Eee- the newer <b>xf86-video-intel</b> driver, or the older <b>xf86-video-i810</b> driver paired with 915resolution. Unless there is a compelling reason to use the i810 driver, the intel driver is the focus upstream and is being actively developed so it is your best choice.<br />
<br />
You need these packages in addition to the Xorg's packages:<br />
<br />
pacman -Sy synaptics xf86-video-intel<br />
<br />
If you choose to use the older i180 video, you will have to install xf86-video-i810 and 915resolution as well. Note that the i180 driver and the intel driver cannot both be installed at the same time.<br />
<br />
Then, just drop in the following xorg.conf into your /etc/X11/ directory:<br />

</pre><br />
<br />
If you want to set up the i810 driver instead, you will also have to configure 915resolution and add it to your daemons line. This is not needed for the intel driver. Edit the /etc/conf.d/915resolution to look like this:<br />
<br />
<pre># Enter the VBIOS mode to patch<br />
MODE="41"<br />
<br />
# Enter the desired resolution<br />
RESOLUTION="800 480"<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Now put the 915resolution daemon into your /etc/rc.conf file:<br />
<br />
<pre>DAEMONS=(... 915resolution ...)</pre><br />
<br />
===Sound & Webcam===<br />
<br />
====Sound====<br />
<br />
Some people have reported sound working right out of the box with no troubles. However, others might need to add the following line to /etc/modprobe.conf.<br />
<br />
<pre>options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-dig</pre><br />
<br />
If your internal microphone doesn't work, you probably have to turn the capture feature on. Simply fire up alsamixer, find your Capture control, and press spacebar to enable it.<br />
<br />
====Webcam====<br />
<br />
If you installed dkite eeemodules package or filoktetes's kernel, then you should already have webcam driver installed and don't need to install Linux UVC device driver. Just add: <br />
<br />
echo 1 > /proc/acpi/asus/camera<br />
<br />
to your /etc/rc.local file should be suffice to get your webcam working.<br />
<br />
If you don't use dkite eeemodules package or filoktetes's kernel or prefers to install the driver yourself, then follows the following instructions.<br />
<br />
First, install the Linux UVC device driver. Make sure you have the community repositories enabled, and run:<br />
<pre>pacman -S linux-uvc-svn</pre><br />
Then just turn on the webcam (This requires the asus_acpi module):<br />
<pre>echo 1 > /proc/acpi/asus/camera</pre><br />
If you want a simple application application to test it out with, install [http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?do_Details=1&ID=7763 luvcview from the AUR], and run it with:<br />
<pre>luvcview -f yuv</pre><br />
<br />
Alternatively, if you want the webcam application that the default Xandos installation uses, install [http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?do_Details=1&ID=14469 ucview from the AUR].<br />
<br />
The webcam also works fine with the latest version of Skype.<br />
<br />
I have yet to get it working with vlc or any other software such as xawtv. If you know how, please update this.<br />
<br />
*'''NOTE:''' For anyone who has accidentally disabled Auto Exposure for their webcam in luvcview (making the image dark), and can't enable it again, do the following:<br />
<br />
Install [http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?do_Details=1&ID=14468 libwebcam from the AUR].<br />
<br />
Issue the following command:<br />
<pre>uvcdynctrl --set "Exposure, Auto" 4</pre><br />
<br />
===Getting Hot Keys, Graphic Indicators and Shutdown with the Power Button Working===<br />
<br />
If you want to have working hot keys for changing brightness and volumes, graphic indicators working as well as shutdown when press the power button (just like in the stock Eee PC), then you should install dkite's acpid_eee package, which can also be download form his [http://members.shaw.ca/dkite/ website]<br />
<br />
The package itself can be install with<br />
<br />
pacman -Uf acpid_eee-0.0.1-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz.tar<br />
<br />
===Shutdown problem===<br />
<br />
If your Eee won't shutdown properly (i.e. the power indicator led is on but the LCD screen is off), then by adding the following line<br />
<br />
rmmod snd_hda_intel<br />
<br />
To your /etc/rc.local.shutdown should fix the problem.<br />
<br />
If this does not work, the module may not be able to be unloaded until after all services have finished. Do the above, then in /etc/rc.shutdown move <br />
<br />
if [ -x /etc/rc.local.shutdown ]; then<br />
/etc/rc.local.shutdown<br />
fi<br />
<br />
from where it was to directly above the line <br />
<br />
# Terminate all processes<br />
<br />
this will cause the rc.local.shutdown script to run after services have been exited. This fixed all issues for the person editing this note.<br />
<br />
==Additional Tips & Tweaks==<br />
===Power down with the power button===<br />
<br />
*''If you use dkite's acpid_eee package then you should already be able to shutdown by pressing the power button and should not need to do this.''<br />
<br />
The two alternatives here are described in [[Allow_users_to_shutdown]].<br />
<br />
If you don't already or don't plan to use sudo, it may be simpler to use the setuid /sbin/halt method, otherwise using sudo is preferred.<br />
<br />
Below are all the steps required for the sudo method. If you want to use the setuid method, read the article linked above and perform the 'power' file step here, while omitting the 'sudo' in it.<br />
<br />
<pre>pacman -S sudo</pre><br />
<br />
As root, do the following:<br />
<br />
<pre>visudo</pre><br />
<br />
Add the following line to the file:<br />
<br />
<pre>USER HOST = NOPASSWD: /sbin/poweroff</pre><br />
<br />
Where USER = the user you want to be able to power down with and HOST = your hostname (from /etc/rc.conf).<br />
<br />
Now, create a file called /etc/acpi/events/power, containing:<br />
<br />
<pre># /etc/acpi/events/power<br />
# This is called when the user presses the power button<br />
<br />
event=button/power (PWR.||PBTN)<br />
action=sudo /sbin/poweroff</pre><br />
<br />
Make sure that you execute<br />
<br />
<pre>/etc/rc.d/acpid start</pre><br />
<br />
And/or add acpid to the daemons list in /etc/rc.conf:<br />
<br />
<pre>DAEMONS=(hal, acpid ...</pre><br />
<br />
===Compile the 'everything' Kernel===<br />
<br />
The 'everything' kernel has ath5k, which supports the Atheros chipset found on the EEE PC. Here are the [http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath5k#Hackingath5k instructions on compiling the 'everthing' kernel] (thanks raymano!).<br />
<br />
===Use cpufreq for power saving===<br />
For scaling down the processor you have to load the p4_clockmod. Insert it into your /etc/rc.conf MODULES array for loading it at startup. <br />
MODULES=(... p4_clockmod ...)<br />
Then proceed like [http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SpeedStep#Alternative_Methods here]. <br />
Add the following into /etc/conf.d/cpufreq<br />
governor="ondemand"<br />
min_freq="113MHz"<br />
max_freq="900MHz"<br />
With enabled cpufreq it scales the processor between 113MHz up to max. frequency. That should save a lot on battery power. The stated 900MHz will be never reached by the eeePC, the p4_clockmod reports a wrong frequency here. But scaling works, you can feel it in the performance of eeePC that he slow down the processor.<br />
<br />
===Speeding up udev for faster boot===<br />
* [[Speedup udev]]<br />
*http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4349</div>Wizzomafizzohttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Package_Maintainers&diff=34309Package Maintainers2007-12-30T16:14:24Z<p>Wizzomafizzo: xterminus is no longer a TU</p>

=The Trusted User (TU)=<br />
The '''Trusted User (TU)''' is a member of the community charged with<br />
keeping the AUR in working order. He/she maintains popular packages, and<br />
votes in administrative matters. A TU is elected from active community<br />
members by current TUs in a democratic process. TUs are the only<br />
members who have a final say in the direction of the AUR.<br />
<br />
The TUs are governed using the [http://archlinux.org/~simo/TUbylaws.html TU bylaws]<br />
<br />
==TU Duties==<br />
===The TU and UNSUPPORTED===<br />
<br />
The TUs should also make an effort to check package submissions in UNSUPPORTED for malicious code and good PKGBUILDing standards. In around 80% of cases the PKGBUILDs in the UNSUPPORTED are very simple and can be quickly checked for sanity and malicious code by the TU team.<br />
<br />
TUs should also check PKGBUILDs for minor mistakes, suggest corrections and improvements. The TU should endeavor to confirm that all pkgs follow the Arch Packaging Guidelines/Standards and in doing so share their skills with other package builders in an effort to raise the standard of package building across the distro.<br />
<br />
TUs are also in an excellent position to document recommended practices.<br />
<br />
===="Flag Safe" guidelines====<br />
There is new functionality in the AUR that will allow TUs to mark pkgs as checked. However, users are still responsible for checking the PKGBUILDs themselves.<br />
<br />
===The TU and [community], Guidelines for Package Maintenance===<br />
<br />
==== Accessing the Repo ====<br />
<br />
Follow these instructions for uploading/modifying packages once you have become a TU:<br />
<ol><br />
<br />
<li>Install the "aurtools" package. Make sure you read the [[AURtools Tutorial]]</li><br />
<li>You will need to email your the output of "htpasswd -n" to whoever is in charge of the AUR CVS repo ( Paul Mattal = paul@mattal.com ). It comes with Apache.</li><br />
htpasswd -n <userid><br />
<li>Run the following commands to checkout the AUR CVS:<br><br />
<pre><br />
export CVSROOT=":pserver:<userid>@cvs.archlinux.org:/home/cvs-community"<br />
cvs login<br />
cvs co community</pre></li><br />
<br />
<li> To add a new package:</li><br />
<pre><br />
cvs add &lt;directory&gt;<br />
cd &lt;directory&gt;<br />
cvs add PKGBUILD<br />
</pre><br />
<li>Make a commit:</li><br />
cvs commit<br />
<li> To upload a binary package:</li><br />
Please note that AUR password is to be used with tupkg (NOT the CVS password)<br />
tupkg --user &lt;userid&gt; --password &lt;aur-password&gt; &lt;packagefile.pkg.tar.gz&gt;<br />
<br />
<li> After uploading a package and committing the build files, tag the files with this command:</li><br />
cvs tag -cFR CURRENT &lt;newpackagebuilddir&gt;<br />
Package changes become available on every full and half of hour. Verify everything was uploaded properly, then select the newly added or updated package in the web interface and set yourself as the maintainer.<br />
</ol><br />
<i>'''Note:''' Steps 5-7 can be run with communitypkg in one command as mentioned below in the AURtools tutorial.</i><br />
<br />
<br />
<i><br />
'''Note:''' In some cases, especially for community packages, an x86_64 TU might bump the pkgrel by .1 (and not +1). This indicates that the <strong> change to the PKGBUILD is x86_64 specific </strong> and i686 <br />
maintainers <strong> should not </strong> rebuild the package for i686. When the TU decides to bump the pkgrel , it should be done with the usual increment of +1. However, a previous pkgrel=2.1 must <br />
not become pkgrel=3.1 when bumped by the TU and must instead be pkgrel=3. In a nutshell, leave dot (.) releases exclusive to the x86_64 TU's to avoid confusion.<br />
</i><br />
<br />
==== Uploading packages to x86_64-version of community ====<br />
* step 1 till 5 are the same as mentioned above.<br />
* when using tupkg add "--port 1035" to the list of parameters<br />
* Tag the package with "cvs tag -cFR CURRENT-64"<br />
<br />
==== Adopting Packages ====<br />
A TU may adopt any package at any time. But because the TU's time is<br />
limited, he should try to only adopt popular packages. The voting<br />
mechanism in the AUR allows a TU to quickly gauge which packages users<br />
want.<br />
<br />
A maintainer should adopt his selected package(s) via the web interface. That maintainer is then responsible for bug fixes and new version updates. Packages must be properly cleaned and fixed after adoption.<br />
<br />
==== Disowning packages ====<br />
You can disown packages by choosing "Disown Packages" in the AUR webinterface.<br />
If a TU can't or doesn't want to maintain a package any longer, a<br />
notice should be posted to the AUR Mailing List, so another TU can<br />
maintain it. A package can still be disowned even if no other TU wants<br />
to maintain it, but the TUs should try not to drop many packages (they<br />
shouldn't take on more than they have time for). If a package has<br />
become obsolete or isn't used any longer, it can be removed completely<br />
as well.<br />
<br />
If a package has been removed completely, it can be uploaded once again<br />
(fresh) to UNSUPPORTED, where a regular user can maintain the package<br />
instead of the TU.<br />
<br />
==== Deleting packages from [community] ====<br />
<br />
Removing a package from [community] is easy but not straightforward.<br />
After you've removed it from community, you could re-add it to <br />
unsupported (make sure to keep a copy!) and orphan it, for adoption by <br />
some other user in unsupported.<br />
<br />
To remove a package, all you really need to do is remove the CURRENT (and possibly CURRENT-64) tag <br />
from the PKGBUILD. You do this by doing:<br />
<br />
cvs tag -d CURRENT PKGBUILD<br />
cvs tag -d CURRENT PKGBUILD<br />
<br />
If you wish to remove the package materials from CVS for future <br />
revisions (because you don't want the old stuff lying around), you can <br />
do the following '''FROM THE PACKAGE'S DIRECTORY''' in your checked out <br />
version of the community repo (this is very important!):<br />
<br />
cd /path/to/<packagedirname><br />
cvs tag -dl CURRENT #or CURRENT-64<br />
cvs rm -fl<br />
cvs commit<br />
<br />
'''BE VERY CAREFUL''' with CVS delete commands! By untagging current on the <br />
whole repo you risk removing '''EVERYTHING''' in [community]. I've suggested<br />
commands that hope to minimize that possibility, but there's <br />
still danger where delete is involved. Especially note that the tag <br />
delete takes '''IMMEDIATELY''' before committing, so be very careful.<br />
<br />
Also, due to weirdness of CVS, actually removing the package directory <br />
is impossible. It will still show up in a checked out version unless you set up a ~/.cvsrc<br />
file that will help prune empty directories. The following is helpful:<br />
<br />
cvs -q<br />
diff -uN<br />
rdiff -u<br />
checkout -P<br />
update -dP<br />
<br />
Any TU can remove any package in [community] so keep this in mind and be <br />
extra super careful with this ability, lest you accidentally wipe out <br />
someone else's package.<br />
<br />
=== AURtools ===<br />
To help the Trusted Users with their duties, the AURtools were written based on the '''tupkg''' tool. If you are Trusted User, it is highly recommended that you use the AURtools. The [[AURtools Tutorial]] was written to help you to get used to them.</div>Wizzomafizzohttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Package_Maintainers&diff=26886Package Maintainers2007-07-12T10:06:07Z<p>Wizzomafizzo: /* wizzomafizzo */ Adding my information.</p>

=The Trusted User (TU)=<br />
The '''Trusted User (TU)''' is a member of the community charged with<br />
keeping the AUR in working order. He/she maintains popular packages, and<br />
votes in administrative matters. A TU is elected from active community<br />
members by current TUs in a democratic process. TUs are the only<br />
members who have a final say in the direction of the AUR.<br />
<br />
The TUs are governed using the [http://archlinux.org/~simo/TUbylaws.html TUbylaws]<br />
<br />
==TU Duties==<br />
===The TU and UNSUPPORTED===<br />
<br />
The TUs should also make an effort to check package submissions in UNSUPPORTED for malicious code and good PKGBUILDing standards. In around 80% of cases the PKGBUILDs in the UNSUPPORTED are very simple and can be quickly checked for sanity and malicious code by the TU team.<br />
<br />
TUs should also check PKGBUILDs for minor mistakes, suggest corrections and improvements. The TU should endeavor to confirm that all pkgs follow the Arch Packaging Guidelines/Standards and in doing so share their skills with other package builders in an effort to raise the standard of package building across the distro.<br />
<br />
TUs are also in an excellent position to document recommended practices.<br />
<br />
===="Flag Safe" guidelines====<br />
There is new functionality in the AUR that will allow TUs to mark pkgs as checked. However, users are still responsible for checking the PKGBUILDs themselves.<br />
<br />
===The TU and [community], Guidelines for Package Maintenance===<br />
<br />
==== Accessing the Repo ====<br />
<br />
Follow these instructions for uploading/modifying packages once you have become a TU:<br />
<ol><br />
<br />
<li>Install the "aurtools" package. Make sure you read the [[AURtools Tutorial]]</li><br />
<li>You will need to email your the output of "htpasswd -n" to whoever is in charge of the AUR CVS repo ( Paul Mattal = paul@mattal.com ). It comes with Apache.</li><br />
htpasswd -n <userid><br />
<li>Run the following commands to checkout the AUR CVS:<br><br />
<pre><br />
export CVSROOT=":pserver:<userid>@cvs.archlinux.org:/home/cvs-community"<br />
cvs login<br />
cvs co community</pre></li><br />
<br />
<li> To add a new package:</li><br />
<pre><br />
cvs add &lt;directory&gt;<br />
cd &lt;directory&gt;<br />
cvs add PKGBUILD<br />
</pre><br />
<li>Make a commit:</li><br />
cvs commit<br />
<li> To upload a binary package:</li><br />
Please note that AUR password is to be used with tupkg (NOT the CVS password)<br />
tupkg --user &lt;userid&gt; --password &lt;aur-password&gt; &lt;packagefile.pkg.tar.gz&gt;<br />
<br />
<li> After uploading a package and committing the build files, tag the files with this command:</li><br />
cvs tag -cFR CURRENT &lt;newpackagebuilddir&gt;<br />
Package changes become available on every full and half of hour. Verify everything was uploaded properly, then select the newly added or updated package in the web interface and set yourself as the maintainer.<br />
</ol><br />
<i>'''Note:''' Steps 5-7 can be run with communitypkg in one command as mentioned below in the AURtools tutorial.</i><br />
<br />
<br />
<i><br />
'''Note:''' In some cases, especially for community packages, an x86_64 TU might bump the pkgrel by .1 (and not +1). This indicates that the <strong> change to the PKGBUILD is x86_64 specific </strong> and i686 <br />
maintainers <strong> should not </strong> rebuild the package for i686. When the TU decides to bump the pkgrel , it should be done with the usual increment of +1. However, a previous pkgrel=2.1 must <br />
not become pkgrel=3.1 when bumped by the TU and must instead be pkgrel=3. In a nutshell, leave dot (.) releases exclusive to the x86_64 TU's to avoid confusion.<br />
</i><br />
<br />
==== Uploading packages to x86_64-version of community ====<br />
* step 1 till 5 are the same as mentioned above.<br />
* when using tupkg add "--port 1035" to the list of parameters<br />
* Tag the package with "cvs tag -cFR CURRENT-64"<br />
<br />
==== Adopting Packages ====<br />
A TU may adopt any package at any time. But because the TU's time is<br />
limited, he should try to only adopt popular packages. The voting<br />
mechanism in the AUR allows a TU to quickly gage which packages users<br />
want.<br />
<br />
A maintainer should adopt his selected package(s) via the web interface. That maintainer is then responsible for bug fixes and new version updates. Packages must be properly cleaned and fixed after adoption.<br />
<br />
==== Disowning packages ====<br />
You can disown packages by choosing "Disown Packages" in the AUR webinterface.<br />
If a TU can't or doesn't want to maintain a package any longer, a<br />
notice should be posted to the AUR Mailing List, so another TU can<br />
maintain it. A package can still be disowned even if no other TU wants<br />
to maintain it, but the TUs should try not to drop many packages (they<br />
shouldn't take on more than they have time for). If a package has<br />
become obsolete or isn't used any longer, it can be removed completely<br />
as well.<br />
<br />
If a package has been removed completely, it can be uploaded once again<br />
(fresh) to UNSUPPORTED, where a regular user can maintain the package<br />
instead of the TU.<br />
<br />
==== Deleting packages from [community] ====<br />
<br />
Removing a package from [community] is easy but not straightforward.<br />
After you've removed it from community, you could re-add it to <br />
unsupported (make sure to keep a copy!) and orphan it, for adoption by <br />
some other user in unsupported.<br />
<br />
To remove a package, all you really need to do is remove the CURRENT tag <br />
from the PKGBUILD. You do this by doing:<br />
<br />
cvs tag -d CURRENT PKGBUILD<br />
<br />
If you wish to remove the package materials from CVS for future <br />
revisions (because you don't want the old stuff lying around), you can <br />
do the following '''FROM THE PACKAGE'S DIRECTORY''' in your checked out <br />
version of the community repo (this is very important!):<br />
<br />
cd /path/to/<packagedirname><br />
cvs tag -dl CURRENT<br />
cvs rm -fl<br />
cvs commit<br />
<br />
'''BE VERY CAREFUL''' with CVS delete commands! By untagging current on the <br />
whole repo you risk removing '''EVERYTHING''' in [community]. I've suggested<br />
commands that hope to minimize that possibility, but there's <br />
still danger where delete is involved. Especially note that the tag <br />
delete takes '''IMMEDIATELY''' before committing, so be very careful.<br />
<br />
Also, due to weirdness of CVS, actually removing the package directory <br />
is impossible. It will still show up in a checked out version. This is <br />
CVS and we have to live with it, at least for now.<br />
<br />
Any TU can remove any package in [community] so keep this in mind and be <br />
extra super careful with this ability, lest you accidentally wipe out <br />
someone else's package.<br />
<br />
=== AURtools ===<br />
To help the Trusted Users with their duties, the AURtools were written based on the '''tupkg''' tool. If you are Trusted User, it is highly recommended that you use the AURtools. The [[AURtools Tutorial]] was written to help you to get used to them.</div>Wizzomafizzohttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Wiimote&diff=22121Wiimote2007-03-23T17:21:47Z<p>Wizzomafizzo: </p>

<div>{{stub}}<br />
This article will go through the basic steps required to have a working Wiimote in Linux for general use. It won't go into much detail for some steps as there are many guides already written for some parts already.<br />
<br />
=Setup=<br />
==Prerequisites==<br />
* Bluetooth<br />
* cwiid<br />
* Wiimote<br />
<br />
The most important piece required is [[Bluetooth]], this must already be configured and running without the help of this guide. This should be simple enough with any guide found on the internet. The 'cwiid' package must be installed from the [[Enabling_the_community_repositories|community]] repository. This package contains all libraries and programs required for basic use of the Wiimote. Lastly you will need a Wiimote, this can include (although are not required) the Nunchuk and Classic Control attachments.<br />
<br />
==cwiid==<br />
cwiid is incredibly easy to get running on any system with working Bluetooth support. Once it has been installed from the community repository you should make sure your Wiimote is detected by your Bluetooth system:<br />
<br />
(press the 1 and 2 buttons on your Wiimote)<br />
$ hcitool scan<br />
Scanning ...<br />
<MAC address> Nintendo RVL-CNT-01<br />
<br />
Once your Wiimote has been detected you can test if it's working by running the command 'wmgui' and testing out various buttons and sensors through that interface.</div>Wizzomafizzohttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Wiimote&diff=22120Wiimote2007-03-23T17:20:54Z<p>Wizzomafizzo: New page: stub This article will go through the basic steps required to have a working Wiimote in Linux for general use.

<hr />
<div>[[Category:Desktop]]<br />
Mutt is a text-based mail client renowned for its powerful features. Mutt, though over a decade old, remains the mail client of choice for great number of power-users. Unfortunately, a default mutt install is plagued by complex keybindings, and a daunting amount of documentation. This guide will help the average user get mutt up and running, and begin customizing it to his/her taste.<br />
<br />
== Quick Start ==<br />
<br />
=== What Mutt Does Not Do ===<br />
Mutt is a Mail User Agent (MUA), and was written to view mail. It was not written to retrieve, send, or sort mail. It relies on external programs to do those tasks. For this wiki, we will be using getmail to retrieve our mail, procmail to sort our mail, and msmtp to send our mail.<br />
<br />
==Setting up for POP mail==<br />
<br />
Because IMAP protocol does not cache your mail locally you can skip this section.<br />
<br />
=== Retrieving Mail ===<br />
First install [http://pyropus.ca/software/getmail/ getmail]. It is in the <code>[extra]</code> repository.<br />
pacman -S getmail<br />
Now create the directory <code>~/.getmail/</code>. Open the file <code>~/.getmail/getmailrc</code> in your favorite text editor.<br />
<br />
Here is an example <code>getmailrc</code> used with a gmail account.<br />
<pre><br />
[retriever]<br />
type = SimplePOP3SSLRetriever<br />
server = pop.gmail.com<br />
username = username@gmail.com<br />
port = 995<br />
password = password<br />
<br />
[destination]<br />
type = Maildir<br />
path = ~/mail/<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
You can tweak this to your POP3 service's specification.<br />
<br />
For this guide we will be storing our mail in the <code>maildir</code> format. The two main mailbox formats are <code>mbox</code> and <code>maildir</code>. The main difference between the two is that <code>mbox</code> is one file, with all of your mails and their headers stored in it, whereas a <code>maildir</code> is a directory tree. Each mail is its own file, which will often speed things up.<br />
<br />
A <code>maildir</code> is just a folder with the folders <code>cur</code>, <code>new</code> and <code>tmp</code> in it.<br />
mkdir -p ~/mail/{cur,new,tmp}<br />
<br />
Now, run getmail. If it works fine, you can create a cronjob for getmail to run every n hours/minutes. Type <code>crontab -e</code> to edit cronjobs, and enter the following:<br />
/30 * * * * /usr/bin/getmail<br />
That will run <code>getmail</code> every 30 minutes.<br />
<br />
=== Sorting Mail ===<br />
<br />
[http://www.procmail.org/ Procmail] is an extremely powerful sorting tool. For the purposes of this wiki, we will do some primitive sorting to get started.<br />
<br />
First, install procmail. It is in the <code>[current]</code> repository.<br />
pacman -S procmail<br />
You must edit your getmailrc to pass retrieved mail to procmail.<br />
<pre><br />
[destination]<br />
type = MDA_external<br />
path = /usr/bin/procmail<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Now, open up <code>.procmailrc</code> in your favorite editor. The following will sort all mail from the happy-kangaroos mailing list, and all mail from your lovey-dovey friend in their own maildirs.<br />
<pre><br />
MAILDIR=$HOME/mail<br />
DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/inbox/<br />
LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/log<br />
<br />
:0:<br />
* ^To: happy-kangaroos@nicehost.com<br />
happy-kangaroos/<br />
<br />
:0:<br />
* ^From: loveydovey@iheartyou.net<br />
lovey-dovey/<br />
</pre><br />
After you've saved your <code>.procmailrc</code>, run getmail and see if procmail succeeds in sorting your mail into the appropriate directories.<br />
<br />
==Setting up for SMTP==<br />
<br />
Whether you use POP or IMAP to recieve mail you will probably still send mail using SMTP.<br />
<br />
=== Sending Mail ===<br />
[http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/ Msmtp] is a very simple and easy to use smtp client. It is in the <code>[extra]</code> repository.<br />
pacman -S msmtp<br />
Open up <code>~/.msmtprc</code> in your favorite editor. The following is an example of an <code>.msmtprc</code> for a gmail account:<br />
<pre><br />
account default<br />
host smtp.gmail.com<br />
port 587<br />
protocol smtp<br />
auth on<br />
from username@gmail.com<br />
user username@gmail.com<br />
password mypassword<br />
tls on<br />
tls_starttls on<br />
</pre><br />
Now mutt must be configured to use msmtp. Make a directory <code>~/.mutt/</code>, and open up <code>~/.mutt/muttrc</code>. The following should get you started viewing and sending mail.<br />
<pre><br />
set realname='Disgruntled Kangaroo'<br />
<br />
set sendmail="/usr/bin/msmtp"<br />
<br />
set edit_headers=yes<br />
set folder=~/mail<br />
set mbox=+mbox<br />
set spoolfile=+inbox<br />
set record=+sent<br />
set postponed=+drafts<br />
set mbox_type=Maildir<br />
<br />
mailboxes +inbox +lovey-dovey +happy-kangaroos<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Now, startup mutt. You should see all the mail in <code>~/mail/inbox</code>. Press <code>m</code> to compose mail (it will use the editor defined by your <code>EDITOR</code> environment variable. If this variable is not set, type <code>export EDITOR=/path/to/yourfavorite/editor</code>. For testing purposes, address the letter to yourself. After you have written the lovely letter, use your editor's save and exit command. You will return to mutt, which will show you information about your e-mail. Press <code>y</code> to send it. If everything works, congratulations! You can use mutt! However, realizing the true power of mutt comes with much customizing.<br />
<br />
== Customizing Mutt ==<br />
<br />
Coming Soon, but until then, you can view some sample mutt configs at the [http://wiki.mutt.org/?ConfigList Mutt Wiki]. <br />
<br />
[[User:Xterminus|xterminus]] is pretty active in the mutt community, so if you have any mutt specific questions, feel free to ask in [[ArchChannel|the irc channel]].</div>Wizzomafizzohttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Locale&diff=15614Locale2006-10-08T16:08:14Z<p>Wizzomafizzo: </p>

<div>Configuring (adding and removing) locales is a breeze. As super user, edit <code>/etc/locale.gen</code>, uncommenting (removing "#" from the beginnings of appropriate lines) the locales you require. Then, run <code>locale-gen</code>. If you now run <code>locale -a</code>, you should see whatever those you have specified.<br />
<br />
For your locale to come into effect, you must set an environmental variable. The easiest way to do this is by editing the <code>.bashrc</code> file in your home directory. Add the following line to this file:<br />
export LC_ALL="locale"<br />
For instance,<br />
export LC_ALL="he_IL.utf8"<br />
When you next start bash (upon reboot, for instance), the LC_ALL environmental variable will be set for you.<br />
<br />
Configuring a proper locale can greatly enhance your Linux experience. For instance, configuring a Hebrew locale will allow you to read Hebrew messages in Gaim.<br />
<br />
'''WARNING: Changing your locale to this will not grant you powers to read Hebrew!'''<br />

<hr />
<div>[[Category:Laptop]]<br />
<br />
In an attempt to give back to the Arch community I decided to write a wiki page about my laptop the Dell Latitude C600 and what I've found out about it, it's treated me well and plays fairly nicely with Linux. I would recommend it.<br />
<br />
Much of this information has been based off of the wiki page for the [http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Dell_Latitude_C600 Dell Latitude C600] at the Gentoo wiki and the [http://www.whacked.net/ldl/faq/ linux-dell-laptops faq] page which although old is still very good, I suggest you also read both of these if you don't find answers here.<br />
<br />
=Known Hardware=<br />
'''Cardbus:''' 2 slots, Texas Instruments PCI1420<br><br />
'''Audio:''' 3Com Corporation 3c556 Hurricane CardBus [Cyclone] (rev 10)<br><br />
'''Video:''' ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02)<br><br />
'''Ethernet:''' 3Com Corporation 3c556 Hurricane CardBus [Cyclone] (rev 10)<br><br />
'''Modem:''' 3Com Corporation Mini PCI 56k Winmodem (rev 10)<br />
<br />
=PCMCIA Cardbus=<br />
After some configuration changes I know personally that this cardbus works perfectly.<br />
<br />
First install pcmciautils as root with<br />
<br />
pacman -S pcmciautils<br />
<br />
<br />
Once installed to stop boot freezes you have to edit /etc/pcmcia/config.opts and find the line<br />
<br />
include port 0x820-0x8ff<br />
<br />
<br />
and comment it out. Dell likes to be special for some reason and if that range is probed at boot it will usually result in the laptop dying, I think this configuration change can be applied to most Dell laptops.<br />
<br />
If you're compiling your own kernel remember that this is a yenta-compatible cardbus and that should be enabled in the pccard section of the kernel config.<br />
<M> CardBus yenta-compatible bridge support <br />
<br />
=Audio=<br />
I've had absolutely no problems with audio for this laptop, if you're using the Arch stock kernel26 or beyond kernel it should work straight out of the box after it is enabled like a regular sound card.<br />
<br />
If you're compiling your own kernel you should enable this card in the sound pci device section<br />
<*> ESS Allegro/Maestro3<br />
<br />
=Video=<br />
==Framebuffer==<br />
If you're using a stock kernel I can confirm that you can get a high resolution framebuffer by simply adding<br />
vga=791<br />
to your kernel's boot options for a good 1024x768 resolution. I'll leave you to find out other values to use for other resolutions but this one workd for me and is a good guideline.<br />
<br />
Using the beyond kernel it is also quite easy to achieve extras like a background or progress bar on boot using other articles in this wiki.<br />
<br />
If you're compiling your own kernel then you're out of luck with getting a framebuffer to work with this guide, I've not been able to find the right options and the rage128 driver causes a freeze, that being said it has to be possible some how and feel free to add your solution here.<br />
<br />
==Xorg==<br />
I always use xorgconfig to generate my xorg config and it's quite easy to get xorg going at first, a general rule is to use the ati and rage128 drivers for it. The Gentoo wiki article has links to [http://rserve.biz/gentoo/kilrathi/xorg.conf this] xorg.conf which has some great additions you can add for your video sections. One thing to add is that contrary what the config says this laptop can get a top resolution of 1400x1050 for me at least.<br />
<br />
=Network=<br />
==Ethernet==<br />
This works perfectly straight out of the box without any configuration using any of the stock kernels. Not much to say about it.<br />
<br />
If you're compiling your own kernel remember to enable this card in the net device section<br />
<*> 3c590/3c900 series (592/595/597) "Vortex/Boomerang" support<br />
<br />
==Winmodem==<br />
Apparently this laptop has a 3Com Corporation Mini PCI 56k Winmodem but I'm yet to get it working and doubt it would. I also have no need or desire to get it working anyway.<br />
<br />
Please anyone feel free to add to this section how you got it working if you have.<br />
<br />
=Touchpad=<br />
This laptop has a great touchpad and has lots of features if used in conjunction with the synaptics driver for xorg. You can install it with<br />
<br />
pacman -S synaptics<br />
<br />
<br />
and use this in your xorg config's mouse section<br />
<br />
Driver "synaptics"<br />
Option "Protocol" "auto-dev"<br />
Option "Device" "/dev/psaux"<br />
Option "Emulate3Buttons"<br />
Option "HorizScrollDelta" "0"<br />
<br />
<br />
This adds all sorts neat features like a "scroll wheel" on the right, tap-to-click, tapping in corners for right-clicking, middle-clicking etc. and using the bottom as another scroll wheel for things like back and forward buttons in Firefox. I have this disabled with the HorizScrollDelta line as it gets really annoying.<br />
<br />
The little joystick in the center of the keyboard also works perfectly.<br />
<br />
=Battery and Power Saving=<br />
==APM==<br />
I would suggest using APM instead of ACPI as it's easier, provides a longer battery time and most importantly works out of the box and even gives you a working suspend.<br />
<br />
Enabling APM with a stock kernel is very easy, you can turn it off by adding<br />
acpi=off<br />
to the kernel boot options and next boot you should have working APM.<br />
<br />
If your APM happens to be buggy or causes crashes you may need to update your BIOS which can be done using [http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Dell_Latitude_C600#APM this] section of the Gentoo guide.<br />
<br />
You will also probably need apmd which you can install with<br />
pacman -S apmd<br />
and then adding "apmd" to your daemons list in rc.conf<br />
<br />
==ACPI==<br />
I know this laptop is perfectly capable of using ACPI but I prefer to use APM so I don't have any information to give. If you want to test it out yourself install acpid and try looking around for some guides for it. Please add any working scripts you might find to this guide.<br />
<br />
=Volume Keys and Fans=<br />
If you've wondered how you can get those volume keys working or even how to control the fans you're in luck, the i8k module and utils are perfectly compatible with the laptop. Make sure i8k is loaded with<br />
modprobe i8k<br />
and if you use your own kernel make sure you compile in "Dell Laptop Support".<br />
<br />
Next install i8kutils with<br />
pacman -S i8kutils<br />
and you're set to go. You can refer to the documentation for i8kutils on how to script the volume keys and control the fans.</div>Wizzomafizzo
