abarbarian Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 Ok now I am worried. Third attempt.Looks like valgrind was hidding or having a smoke as it seems to be already installed. ╰─><(((“>$ yin valgrind 14/07/14 Password: warning: valgrind-3.9.0-4 is up to date -- reinstalling resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts...

securitybreach Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Firefox has been buggy lately but I'll look into it further when I get home from the doctors office. BTW what is yin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abarbarian Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 The opposite of yang My alias "for yaourt -S". It is not just FF it seems to be any program that needs a lot of graphicals. Sometimes programs will crash and leave me with a desktop. Sometimes X closes down and I am left in tty1 (the console before you startx).

securitybreach Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Well first off, the reason pacman was giving errors was due to the mirror having issue. As far as pacman, I generally use the debug flag to get more output: pacman --debug -Syu I tried running valgrind -v firefox and I got thousands of errors... ==32492== 1094 errors in context 996 of 1000: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

securitybreach Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 an a clean install.Well I think it is solved. So you reinstalled Arch? I do not think that was needed to fix your issue but whatever works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abarbarian Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 Well before I reinstalled when I ran the following command I had no output ie:SLI was not enabled. I followed all the steps and did some troubleshooting after wards but no joy.After the install I now seem to have SLI enabled correctly.So the install was worth it. Also I have fiddled so much that a clean start was really much quicker than trying to decrud manually. Gave me a chance to try out the new install procedure too. ]$ nvidia-settings -q all | grep SLIMode Attribute 'SLIMode' (longship:0.0): AA 'SLIMode' is a string attribute.
