Re: Desktop

@rayjgu3: Your link leads nowhere for me.

@kasnot: Reading the wiki will help you a lot understanding Arch, so you better start learning there. Arch is well-documented, but it's not keen on providing one-click-solutions, rather emphasizes on forcing the user to fully understand what he's doing. The learning curve is rather steep, but it will pay off, questionless.

http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cat … _(English) would be the URL rayjgu3 posted though the forum auto url formater didn't manage to do it correctly.

Re: Desktop

Have a look at http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners_Guide for everything you need to know to start.

Also, out of pure curiosity: what brought you to Arch anyway? No offense but it seems that there is a constant influx of new users that don't seem to know what to do in order to install or use Arch Linux. This is not a distribution that holds your hand on everything and neither does the community.
