I am getting bored.

It's true, i thought it would never happen . After using arch fro 20 days, i can't think of new ways to have fun with arch. Can you guys suggest something fun to do with my arch?

You could start treating your now set up and working system as a means, rather than the end.

baze · 2006-05-24 16:32:01

start configuring fvwm

postlogic · 2006-05-24 16:48:00

..or hack the sources.

phrakture · 2006-05-24 16:58:40

Or improve the AUR code - we all know it needs it.

cactus · 2006-05-24 17:16:52

or rewrite the aur code..

phrakture · 2006-05-24 17:18:34

Or rewrite cactus

cactus · 2006-05-24 17:23:11

dude. I need a rewrite. My codebase is getting quite dated, and my api was messy to begin with.
o.O

phrakture · 2006-05-24 17:26:22

Can someone say.... HIJACK?!

postlogic · 2006-05-24 18:08:29

Hijack.

Hijill.

... damn, I can't say it.

tlaloc · 2006-05-24 20:29:00

You may drop by to configure my system

mezoko · 2006-05-24 20:34:02

Dude, setupssh and freenx.
Freenx is kinda like vnc, but it a lot faster. You can start a desktop session from any computer with the client. Win/Linux/Mac (I think there mac support)

Wouldnt you use Arch for the same reasons you would any other OS?

I certainly hope the vast majority of users here are not just inmature teenagers who just want to become l337 and cooler than all the rest.

That would be stupid and I'd leave right now.

Haha, I came to Archlinux to learn more about configuring my system and to get more firmiliar with my hardware .

unixguru · 2006-05-25 03:01:52

I am going to configure fvwm and maybe i'll try out vim! And guys i heard it's very easy to program in python, i am learning c now from c primer plus by stephen prata, should i try python?

Yes, to have fun! Windows was fun first, then it got boring. The next os i tried was freebsd about three years ago. After about 3 months it too became boring. Then i think mandrake, redhat...................and somewhere in the middle DOS and finally Arch.

DeusExLinux · 2006-05-25 04:53:30

DOS came in the middle? strange... My experiences with DOS were far before windows.

kakabaratruskia · 2006-05-25 05:09:31

You could rewrite pacman in assembler, and port it to all known platforms.

unixguru · 2006-05-25 09:29:35

I mean FreeDOS, i started using a computer only 5 years ago and i used DOS only about a year ago.

The Wiki looks messy for me. French Articles near English Articles near Japanese Articles. Looks like it could need some work.
I like the look of the gentoo wiki. categories like hardware and such. Articles in a foreign language seperated from others so you can easier look for what you want in your own language.
You could improve that.

No, there are quite a few immature twenty and thirty-somethings here too.

Check out the "Package Request" forum and start 'a buildin'.

Amen to that.

ScriptDevil · 2006-05-27 04:19:57

if you want to see what relly bored means
USE WINDOWS XP
If you are bored with arch, try using stuff like mutt, links, mplayer, abcde,.. which will make you spend a lifetime configuring
Finally if the child in you is not dead try some strategy games form aur

Arch Linux
