Just did a pacman -Syu & got some interesting results
I just did an upgrade using pacman -Syu and got some interesting results:
1 The gnome 2.22.2 upgrade was included in the upgrade. Almost every package gave the following warning:
[2008-06-03 20:20] upgraded gvfs (0.2.3-1 -> 0.2.4-1)
[2008-06-03 20:20] warning: directory permissions differ on usr/
filesystem: 555 package: 755
[2008-06-03 20:20] upgraded nautilus (2.22.2-1 -> 2.22.3-1)
[2008-06-03 20:20] warning: directory permissions differ on usr/
filesystem: 555 package: 755
[2008-06-03 20:20] upgraded gnome-control-center (2.22.1-1 -> 2.22.2.1-1)
[2008-06-03 20:20] warning: directory permissions differ on usr/
filesystem: 555 package: 755
[2008-06-03 20:20] upgraded gnome-games (2.22.1.1-1 -> 2.22.2.1-1)
[2008-06-03 20:20] warning: directory permissions differ on usr/
filesystem: 555 package: 7552 Now when Arch boots up, a couple of lines before it says Arch (core dump) is booting, I get:
aperture beyond 4 Gb. Ignoring.Anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas on the Aperture beyond 4 Gb thing?

I know nothing about aperture.
I think you might want to file a bug report about those directory permissions errors.

1) Your permissions on /usr are wrong. You need to as root run "chmod 755 /usr".
2) More than 4Gb of RAM in your system? This I think is a kernel 2.6.25 bug... but not to sure!
Googling finds this which may be useful:

The aperture greater than 4 GB is happening on two different computers after upgrading. Both are AMD 64 bit Dual Core running Arch 64, one socket 939 and the other socket AM2. The socket 939 has 1 Gb of RAM, and the socket AM2 has 2 Gb of RAM. Haven't upgraded my i686 machine yet. Will be interesting to see if it happens on it also.
The aperture greater than 4 GB doesn't seem to be affecting anything, I just don't like seeing errors on my boot up screen. I was just curious about this, I am more concerned with the permissions thing. Thanks for the info Allan, will run chmod as suggested.
