Perhaps you can add some sort of "single profile" setup, where the profile settings are in rc.conf... have it called "default" or something... the other named profiles will be additionaly files. I could see that working for alot of users... anymore I use one ESSID about 75% of the time, so I don't change much... > With the growth of the AUR, perhaps you could even offer your own > profile setup as an AUR package for those users who need more flexibility. > My feelings wouldn't be hurt, I promise. :) I guess, overall, it wouldn't be all that difficult to create your own profile, seeing as they are source-ed bash scripts... have it actually execute some stuff and set the variables as appropriate... i could see something like that working for anyone's custom setup.... _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
