Will there ever be any competition for the Arch Linux logo like in 2007 again?

is pulseaudio installed?

yup

switch to pipewire-pulse, full reboot, try again

I am surprised you got the mic working on PA in the first place

Is that as simple is:
pacman -R pulseaudio
pacman -Sy pipewire-pulse
?

Never -Sy.
Just -Syu pipewire-pulse. Trying to remove PA first will only cause trouble.

Out of curiosity why Syu? What does the u do in this case?

Upgrade.

So itll upgrade the entire system?

Yes. As opposed to the partial upgrade you were about to do, which is unsupported

Oh my xD

And here i installed everything that way and never had an issue

Either -S or -Syu. With -S you willl run into the issue that mirrors don’t carry old packages, just always upgrade, makes life easier.

Im writing a script to autmount usb flashdrive on insert using udev. I got permission denied when running the mount command. Any idea?

I have written similar script before on antix and it works fine.

Doesn’t e.g. udisks do that for you without the need for manual scripting?

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/USB_storage_devices#Auto-mounting_with_udisks

It refuses to do so without removing PA first

Accept the replace

oh good god a 4GB download

You can’t remove PA, everything depends on it.
You can remove PA while installing an alternative, as the dep is still satisfied then.

Heres hoping i come out of the other side of this with a working rig xD

I’m amazed you haven’t had issues with Sy given the size of the update you’re getting… 😁

I mean i do update every so often

Id be less worried if i had an OS disk drive big enough to have snapshots

Oh it failed anyway, apparently a bunch of python3.10 files “exists in filesystem”

Does anyone have ubuntu group link

Thanks. I actually does some backup within the script, not just mounting.

@C0rn3j sorry to pester, but any thoughts?

screw it ,just ran the override param, time for fun

How can i fix it

cat /etc/os-release

Alright, what did you do to get here?
