This is really needed, otherwise some programs will mysteriously fail to
work. The thing here is that you should try to find the place where slim
writes to the log and redirect it to /dev/null instead of the log file
and your problem should be solved. Maybe easier said than done but I
guess you welcome any idea :p

ed it (it just stays put though and doesn't get in the way),
so if pulse was in [extra] it might be possible to include that too for
vlc as an "optdepend". As always, some users wouldn't mind while others
would get really upset about that if it was a "depend".

It looks promising, however it crashed my machine without any warning
and I had to reboot the machine the hard way. Just so you know and don't
try it while doing anything important.

If you have something like radeon.modeset=1 in your kernel line, remove
that, that caused me some trouble and I got a kernel panic during
startup with this message:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!"

put in AUR, because it still works really well if you choose the
settings correctly, specially the full screen mode. The alternative,
tightvnc, seems to have the fullscreen mode still broken and with no
solution in sight (it seems to be a known problem with tightvnc for a
long long time).

isk. If using the whole disk with one
partition, fdisk will set exactly the same start and end sectors that WD
uses in the partition they define and format in the factory.
I did not try parted but I've read that it will also align the
partitions properly, but it may require some extra switch to disable the
alignment to cylinders.
