Not this again ;)!

My apologies, but I'm searching for a distro comparable to old Arch Linux or old Ubuntu Studio.

For another thread Gene was talking about "black magic" and indeed some "things" are "occult" in the sense of "hidden" ;). FWIW, all ADAT channels of my RME card, that aren't working for Linux, are working for my FreeBSD. The Xfce menu icon of FreeBSD only, is replaced by a pentagram, for me it's just some kind of asterisk, without any super cow powers, but perhaps this does the magic. The next Xfce install will get the same icon ;D.

I dropped my old Arch, regarding to too many issues with the unfinished switch to systemd.
Following the mailing list I had the impression, that the transition is complete and that there are no serious issues any more, but trying to install it yesterday, I suspect that mails regarding to issues simply are rejected.

I still try to install the current Arch Linux later today, but seemingly the transition to systemd isn't finished yet and perhaps the next wicked transition already will be enforced in a hidden way. Just an assumption, I don't claim that it is that way.
Don't know what's up with all of that, but my Archbang ( http://www.archbang.org ) is 100% systemd and doing very well.
