Ok I have a problem installng xorg

well here it is.

first when I'm installing xorg, ef2fsprog would have to delete because there is some collision of files. Then after is typed "Y" another problem arises. It says that freetypefont... is not installed or is corrupted. What the hell I need to install arch.. I mean the GUI.


I love linux don't you?

Re: Ok I have a problem installng xorg

Post exact output from pacman.  Your description is too vague for us to help.

Have you installed the base-system from CD and are you now installing from the 'net ?

Do a system upgrade before installing xorg.

pacman -Syyu

Re: Ok I have a problem installng xorg

well , I think arch is not for me.. Because when I'm updating through pacman -Syyu . Connection to server was reset. Aw. How can I resume?

First calm down. Arch is not for the impatient. Second, did you set your network properly during install? Try pinging somewhere:

ping google.com

Post your pacman.conf and mirrorlist

1. Make sure your network is up and working, 2. try another mirror.

You may want to try rankmirrors in order to find the fastest mirror:
