This used to annoy me too, fixed it by going to power management in systemsettings, choose power profiles and uncheck dim display. Seemed a bit silly to have dim display and screen energy saving both kick in after 10 minutes anyway...

Isn't mysql 5.0 vulnerable to security bugs? How vulnerable are we if we just want to use it for amarok? I've no idea how to set the now stable version up to use for my amarok collection.

Did you run

I don't know why but I found I needed a (very minimal) xorg.conf which I generated with

Code: Select all

nvidia-xconfig

On a new install, installing zen-sources-2.6.32_p4 gave errors

Code: Select all

ERROR: unpack
Could not extract patch!
untill I installed lzma-utils, so I guess zen-sources should depend on lzma-utils?

I submitted a bug report when I first had this issue but the devs marked it as invalid as the elog from kdm tells you consolekit needs to be running.

With windows XP you could do it by using hardware profiles, don't think you can with 7.

The stable nvidia-drivers doesn't build with the ~arch kernel, currently the ~arch nvidia-driver version is 185.18.36-r1, use this.

Struggled with that for awhile myself as all of a sudden that service needed to be running. I even submitted a bug report but it was marked invalid as apparently kdm's elog tells you to have consolekit running.
