I just switched from Gentoo to Arch (and I'm loving it!), but I have two minor problems:

1) My clock is an hour behind. I have HARDWARECLOCK="UTC", TIMEZONE="US/Central", and I use ntpd on startup. Any ideas how to fix this?

2) Pypanel doesn't work; python-xlib seems to be broken. Has anyone gotten it to work correctly on Arch, and if so, how did you do it?

Thanks!

I fixed problem #1 by editing /etc/ntp.conf and changing the NTP server, but problem #2 persists. Any clues on how to fix it?

Thanks again!

For problem #2 this worked for me:

Open the following file:

/usr/lib/python<version>/site-packages/Xlib/protocol/display.py

and change line 530 from...

recv = self.socket.recv(2048 )

to...

recv = self.socket.recv(4096)

That worked! Thanks, Ozar!
