Package managers for emacs:

- the native `package.el'
- el-get: if you prefer the latest and greatest from git repo's
- cask: built on `package.el'
now at version 0.6. Allows you to build your own packages.

Pick the one you prefer, depending also on how adventurous you are.

I got caught by this, but there is an easy work-around: While on the grub menu, use the grub 'E' (editor) feature to replace root=UUID=... by root=/dev/mapper/VG10-sid replacing VG10-sid with your logical volume name. Press F10 to boot. After booting edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg and apply the same modif...

Available as `xterm-launcher' in my `bash-scripts' github repo.
Can be used from CLI or from a WM menu.
Should work with urxvt too. Just s:xterm:rxvt:

gimp starts fine on my system, which is up-to-date sid.

Alternative to chroot: Suppose you can't boot into one installed system, but you have one or more other systems installed on that machine: Boot into another install that still boots OK, then Mount the system that will not boot on a mount point, e.g /mnt/sushi Run the command sudo systemd-nspawn -D ...

It is currently still debated whether learning exotic programming languages will contribute to better (voluminous) growth of the neckbeard.

OK.
But asking to run it after it has just finished is ... not looking good.

Suggestion:
test if /boot/grub/grub.cfg is newer than tmpfile. If it is, grub-update has been run by the script and there is no need to ask the question to run it again.

Just trying to make it better than it is already. :)

/etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-update-grub is installed when you install grub- more precisely any of the existing grub packages. If grub is installed on your system, any kernel install will trigger update-grub, so you don't have to re-run it. if grub is not installed on your system and you do a kernel in...

Good script, pidsley.
Nice style too.
One remark: installing a new kernel automatically triggers a grub-update.
No need to run an extra one.

I will be using this too.
Thanks

It works for me, but there are others that seem to have the same problem, booting into a dark screen, as you can see by by googling for "linux kernel 3.13 black screen" and limiting the search to last week.

I have clfswm running.
Love it.
I you love emacs, you got to love this too.



Will post more about it after some experimenting.

Using all standard Debian packages from sid,with clisp as common-lisp implementation.
Have not tried sbcl yet.

Thanks.
I am not using the debian version of emacs. I use the 'trunk' version from source, so I am not affected.

^ root:root is normal

No problem.
I have added that solution in a response to the bug report.
I am curious what the maintainer will come up with. :D

There is a very simple solution to get rid of that extra process:
Just install the Debian package as normal,
then run the following commands as root: BINGO!

They consider being able to see the urxvt process in the 'w' command to be more important than that extra process.
As a consequence, from a security point of view, it makes sense to do it like that.
I was using xterm and eshell in emacs anyway, as I said before, and I will continue to do so.

Here is that bug report.
