pacman Syu error.....
Hi,
I just did a pacman -Syu and it gave me some pretty strange questions/errors. Code:
[root@lb7 ja]# pacman -Syu What does the glut replace mean? And I dont really know why the ttf-bitstream-vera conflicts with xorg. Sincerely, Jørgen |

I had the same problem, and resolved it by removing xorg (you'll have to get it to ignore deps with pacman -Rd), which is about to get replaced anyway, running pacman -Su, then reinstalling the new Xorg package. Incidentally, xorg has just undergone a major upgrade, which may cause problems if you're not expecting it. Check the ArchLinux homepage for info. |
Hi,
I got the same error. There is a thread on the arch forums that explains it and how to update. Sorry I can't give you a direct link to the thread but I'm having difficulty connecting to http://bbs.archlinux.org/. I'll see if I can find it for you when the arch forums are back up. |
Following up on Axel's instructions you will also need to update your paths in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
If you get stuck check out: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg7 |
i followed the instructions on the wiki, had to pacman mouse, keyboard, and nv drivers. All is well on my end.
