Clean Out Orphaned Packages in Arch
avatar

After using Arch for a while and installing and removing applications you are bound to accumulate orphaned packages… which are just packages that were install as dependencies  but now that the original program has been remove they are no longer needed.  An easy way to remove them automatically is to run the following command:

pacman -Rsn $(pacman -Qqdt)

This will do a query of orphan packages and then dump that right into the command to remove them.

Up and Running
avatar

Harptabs.com is now fully up and running.  I am working on customizing the forum to fit the rest of the website but I have been taking a little break from doing it since I spent the entire weekend working on the site.  I hope to get the forum looking like everything else by the end of the week (I hope sooner).

New Server Online

Well it is official I have brought my new server in my new Co-lo online and moved the website http://www.harptabs.com onto it.

The only issue I am having right now with the site is the forum appears not to allow anyone to sign into it.  I am working on this issue now but I believe the only way to fix it will be to load in an entirely new forum as the current one is extremely old and appears to be conflicting with the currently installed version of php.
