probook #! changes 2

cont. * removed myself from audio group deluser <user> audio * tinkered with the tint2rc, but it's backed up so not really an issue * 15 and 16 from "Round off your Crunchbang Waldorf" ICA Client (citrix receiver): OK, I thought I'd streamlined this before , before I got this done much quicker this time!  Forget compiling nspluginwrapper, manually creating those missing directories, editing the post-install script, etc. Here's what happened today on the probook. From this page followed these instructions: 1) Enable 32 bit architecture: % dpkg --add-architecture i386 (check, if you like) dpkg --print-architecture  amd64 dpkg --print-foreign-architectures i386 2) Add 32 bit repositories to /etc/apt/sources.list deb [arch=amd64,i386] http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free  While you're in there, add: deb http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free from the advice here . 3) Up...

probook #! changes

 as per this * add debian backports and set pin priorities * add signing key for deb multimedia * upgrade aptitude * comment out Jessie source * tried updating iceweasel as per the instructions but got: Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "flashplugin-mozilla" I reactivated the Jessie source and tried again, but the same thing happened. Ignoring that for now since I'm not too bothered about iceweasel, but I guess I might have problems since I've purged the old flashplugin! Moving away from that guide for a moment because I want to get my wireless working. Having added the backports this method should work. aptitude -t wheezy-backports install linux-image-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') firmware-ralink I need to reboot to see if this has worked, but it's giving me this in the meantime: The following NEW packages will be installed:   linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.1-amd64{a} The following packages will be upgraded:...

Crunchbang Changes

Added sftp://root@192.168.1.107/media shares  to ~/.gtk-bookmarks  to create a shortcut to pi media centre in the thunar sidebar (shortcut view only). Upon subsequent reboot that has disappeared, which I need to investigate. Added  KERNEL=="dm-*",ENV{UDISKS_PRESENTATION_HIDE}="1" to  /etc/udev/rules.d/99-dmapper-hide.rules to remove lvm partitions from the thunar sidebar. I was concerned that I'd have to comment this out and reboot if I wanted access to, say, my Arch install's home folder, but no fear: sudo lvdisplay /dev/linuxVG lists the lvm partitions (where lunuxVG is my volume group) sudo mount /dev/linuxVG/OS3-home /mnt/arch_home mounts the volume at a previously created directory. I also want to get rid of the unused Network shortcut, but the only way I've found so far involves recompiling thunar, which I can't be arsed with. Preferable would be to use samba to connect to an actual windows network with, if that's the way to...
