i got this error message
ps: my pacman.conf looks like this
I tried to follow the steps on your video,
but when i changed the pacman.conf and tried to update via pacman
i got this error message
and it s not updating the repos.. what could be wrong with that? I run manjaro linux 64bit...error: failed retrieving file 'kernels.db' from mirrors.ustc.edu.cn : The requested URL returned error: 404
error: failed to update kernels (unexpected error)
ps: my pacman.conf looks like this
Code: Select all
#
# /etc/pacman.conf
#
# See the pacman.conf(5) manpage for option and repository directives
#
# GENERAL OPTIONS
#
[options]
# The following paths are commented out with their default values listed.
# If you wish to use different paths, uncomment and update the paths.
#RootDir = /
#DBPath = /var/lib/pacman/
CacheDir = /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
#LogFile = /var/log/pacman.log
#GPGDir = /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/
HoldPkg = pacman glibc
# If upgrades are available for these packages they will be asked for first
SyncFirst = manjaro-system
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/curl -C - -f %u > %o

# By default, pacman accepts packages signed by keys that its local keyring
# trusts (see pacman-key and its man page), as well as unsigned packages.
SigLevel = Required DatabaseOptional
LocalFileSigLevel = Optional
#RemoteFileSigLevel = Required
# NOTE: You must run `pacman-key --init` before first using pacman; the local
# keyring can then be populated with the keys of all official Manjaro Linux
# packagers with `pacman-key --populate archlinux manjaro`.
#
# REPOSITORIES
# - can be defined here or included from another file
# - 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
# have identical names, regardless of version number
# - URLs will have $repo replaced by the name of the current repo
# - URLs will have $arch replaced by the name of the architecture
#
# Repository entries are of the format:
# [repo-name]
# Server = ServerName
# Include = IncludePath
#
# The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and
# uncommented to enable the repo.
#
# The testing repositories are disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the
# repo name header and Include lines. You can add preferred servers immediately
# after the header, and they will be used before the default mirrors.
[core]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
# If you want to run 32 bit applications on your x86_64 system,
# enable the multilib repositories as required here.

Re: Parabola GNU/Linux-libre as proaudio system!
Hi calimerox
You forgot to remove the # before pcr and kernels, like this:
The lines with # in front are not read by the package manager (pacman)
PS: Are you sure that Parabola is what you have, because those repositories and settings are for Parabola only
If you have Arch consider migrating to Parabola first https://wiki.parabola.nu/Migration
In your case (Manjaro) you should proceed here https://wiki.parabola.nu/Migration_from_Manjaro

Re: Parabola GNU/Linux-libre as proaudio system!
Update from 2019:
There is an issue that prevents systemd to properly enable the script to the system. In order to fix it you should edit as root the file /etc/parabola-proaudio-settings.sh like this (comment-out the last line)
Unfortunately i am no longer able to support my parabola-proaudio-settings package, because part of the Parabola developer team, including the guy who packaged my application for Parabola repositories, split up to develop a fork of the distribution called Hyperbola GNU+Linux-libre. I want to make an updated version of this package for Archlinux. If any of you is interested to help me package an updated, expanded and supported archlinux-proaudio-settings package for the AUR, please send me a private message. It will be appreciated, for me and for the Arch musicians community.
Best regards, Totalchaos

Re: Parabola GNU/Linux-libre as proaudio system!
I found this thread on the eve before a three day weekend, got myself all pumped up, installed parabola with the GUI installer and had a hell of an awful time with it (last time I installed arch the arch way it was way more fun and less troubleshooting)... Removed lxde and replaced with mate and the DM, both of which didn't go smoothly... THEN on day 2 I went to set it up for audio and followed the video tutorial.
If ONLY I'd read the entire thread...
There's a lesson in there folks! And I'm really sympathising with the man page thumpin' "did you read the WHOLE wiki?" camp more than ever. I feel dumb.
Good news is I've got a partition just waiting to be set up with a fresh audio work station and that will be fun and challenging and rewarding.
Did this project ever make its way to Arch? In hindsight was it significantly different than just following the arch professional audio wiki?
