FIXED------New install --- Error modules exist

securitybreach · 2007-11-19 00:05:11

I recently installed Arch Core 2007.08-2 and I ran into a few problems. First I could not get my wifi connected and had to remove iwl3945 and install ipw3945. I also had to chroot using a PCLinuxOS livecd to install kdemod and X since I had no wireless connection until I figured it out the driver was the problem. Finally I tried to update and got the following errors:

[root@DarkStar comhack]# pacman --sync --refresh --sysupgrade && pacman -Sy

Here is my /etc/pacman.conf:

# See the pacman manpage for option directives

#
# GENERAL OPTIONS

[options]
LogFile     = /var/log/pacman.log

#   - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here
#   - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
#   - repositories listed first will take precedence when packages

#[custom]
#Server = file:///home/custompkgs

[kdemod]
Server=http://kdemod.ath.cx/repo/current/i686

Any ideal how I can fix this?

Thanks
