]]>2.6.11.3? 2.6.11.5? 2.6.11.7?
if you by chance have this arch installtion still available, check dmesg ... if not, never mind (i cannot reproduce this hanging)
]]>And i installed AL 2 days ago, and all packages was in last version (of stable release, no testing).
But now i'm installing gentoo, maybe i'll try AL in few months...
]]>i don't know what to do. AL and my PC are incompatibles?? may be i change my distro....
]]>I stoped hal and dbus and exec "strace kcontrol" and.... hangs
But i can't read the strace because kcontrol is over xterm.... How can i save the strace output in an archive for reading after kcontrol crash the system?
gdb doesn't work with kcontrol.
]]>gdb is a debugger (pacman -S gdb)
to use:
gdb kcontrol
then type run at the (db) prompt. I don't know if gdb will work for kcontrol (it doesn't for me :? )
strace is a debug tool (pacman -S strace.
to use:
strace kcontrol
==> dbus and hal from testing repository are incompatible with kde at the moment.
from here:
http://wiki2.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE
I have dbus and hal in my rc.conf, i have to remove these daemons??
But some lines down, wiki writes:
* Dbus/Hal Stuff:
==> Please add 'dbus' 'hal' to rc.conf daemon's list for full media:/ kioslave experience.
==> 'pacman -S dbus hal'
What is right or wrong?
Nobody has my problem?
What is gdb and strace? how can i try it?
Thanks
