Hi all,I was using Zenwalk Linux since 4 years, and made my mind to install Arch Linux. I installed it using the help of Installation Guide. Thanks to the Arch Linux team for providing such a nice descriptive and useful forum through which any newbie can migrate to Arch Linux easily.I thought of installing XFCE as my Desktop environment as I was using the same previously.
Howdy,I hail from Canada. I started using Linux about two years ago. Like a lot of newbies, I got going with Ubuntu. About a year ago I switched to Arch, and haven't looked back. I love the simplicity and customizability - the Arch Way! Arch appeals to my drive to tinker.After a year of using Arch, this is the first time I've posted to the forums.
Hi.I thought I would just add a finding to this:Xfce4 was working fine on it's own. Every time I would set up my system as described in the wiki to use slim for logging in, I would have a similar issue.
Just as a disclaimer, I'm brand-new to Arch linux. I installed Arch this morning after using linux mint for some time. Anyways, I wish to use SLiM as my login manager, but whenever I try to log in (whether it be root or my typical user) it says "failed to execute login command", then flashes a black screen and takes me back to an empty "Login:" box. I use
Yep, Silentsnake. OP is grossly wrong. I followed the latest wiki and everything worked fine.

I have a RevoDrive 3 which needs linux 3.2 to be detected, I was trying to make a new install cd but that was too much of a PITA. I then found the nightly builds of the install CDs and was about to try them. I then got the idea to install arch from within my currently running arch install thats on a different drive.
Hi, I reinstalled Arch Linux today when I updated "filesystem" and reboot appeared an error with root device, but I solved with installation CD.
I started this thread because I thought some of you wondered how my very recent distro hopping went along; see this topic.Wanted to let you know I now solved this almost unsolvable issue with my sound (very loud pop upon shutdown/reboot). If you take a look here, you can see there's a fix for this issue at the Arch Forums.So, after trying Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora and #!
