Regards, Ralf From vnstat homepage : vnStat is a console-based network traffic monitor for Linux and BSD that keeps a log of network traffic for the selected interface(s). the network interface names like enps30 are created by by systemd/udev , BSD uses other methods. Placing logfiles in /var/log makes perfect sense for every system that doesn't run systemd. Also this .conf file is the one provided by upstream, and Arch Linux devs prefer a minimal patching approach, keeping packages as close to upstream as possible. LW
Re: [arch-general] vnstat's pacnew
Unlikely that on Arch Linux eth0 is more often used, than enp3s0. I can't truly parse this sentence, but do you suggest the config file should use enp3s0 ? Because enp3s0 depends on *your* hardware (it's the PCI bus 3, slot 0), and will be different on other computers (my laptop has enp2s0 and the desktop enp4s0) -- damjan
[arch-general] Dell latitude and keyboard problem
Hello, I have Arch linux installed on Dell latitude e7440 laptop. Generally almost everything works fine but I have one annoying problem. When I type something on keyboard, sometimes (randomly) random key is blocked like it was pressed all time (for example when I wrot something). This stops when I press any other (or even the same) key once again. I test it on Windows 7 (not for long time but in similar time on linux this problem appear) and there was no problem on Win. I have no idea what could be a reason of that problem and how to debug or diagnose it. Maybe someone of You had same problem on will have some idea how to start searching reason of that :) I will be graceful for any help :) -- Pozdrawiam, Sławek Kapłoński sla...@kaplonski.pl -- Klucz GPG można pobrać ze strony: http://kaplonski.pl/files/slawek_kaplonski.pub.key -- My public GPG key can be downloaded from: http://kaplonski.pl/files/slawek_kaplonski.pub.key signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
[arch-general] linux kernel 3.17 and virtualbox
Quick heads up - virtualbox needs couple fixes which are not yet in upstream 4.3.14 in order to compile against 3.17. There are patches here: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?p=296650#p296650 The patch file I used was : virtualbox-alloc_netdev.diff.txt I have tested the module version of this and confirm it works with 3.17.rc3 custom kernel and that virtualbox comes up and can boot a windows vm.

[arch-general] Gnome extensions and the extension site
For a while now I get the following message when I visit https://extensions.gnome.org/: We cannot detect a running copy of GNOME on this system, so some parts of the interface may be disabled. See our troubleshooting entry for more information. It was working a few months ago; since this is Arch it was quite a few updates ago ;) Now a couple of the extensions I like are out of date and I'd like to update them. I've looked at the troubleshooting entry but nothing there improves the situation. Are others seeing this, or am I alone? Any ideas of what I should check/modify to get it back to a working state? /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: mag...@therning.org jabber: mag...@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus What gets measured, gets done. -- Tom Peters pgpmMKb3HGkgx.pgp Description: PGP signature
