BlueTooth Disconnecting Solved

Since the Arch linux installation I have this problem with my bluetooth devices. Yes I have successfully paired them and all devices appears in all the bluetooth monitor of each device. But the bluetooth service in Arch disconnects immediately after I try to turn it on. The logs says:

"bluetoothd[2668]: a2dp-source profile connect failed for 1C:B7:2C:55:A8:80: Protocol not available"

I found my answer in the Arch Wiki here. But please read the whole article about bluetooth since your issues might not be completely the same. So the short story is I'm missing a package there. After downloading with pacman and restarting pulseaudio, I tried connecting the devices. I'm using gnome by the way so the graphical front-end is where I went. I also got these from the logs. It confirms the devices are now connected.

Appindicator In Natty Ubuntu 11.04

Previously ranted about the blind alley Ubuntu 11.04 seemed to be leading us when it comes to some applications not being ready yet for the dropping of system tray.  What I should have done is press on. There are posts about editing a white list with a recommended GUI tool to help us out here , here and here . Like everything in Linux, there's a configuration file for it, if you can find it and if you have the inclination to go ninja. If not then there's dconf-editor. Download dconf-tools from Software Center. Navigate to desktop>unity>panel. Add your application in the white list. Then close the window. No save button. mmm. So far I have added Shutter, Dropbox and Keepassx in the white list.                Before...  After.

Evolution Mail on GNOME 3.26

There's a slight change in the user interface. A To Do column now appears to the rightmost after the GNOME 3.26 update. Also there's a noticeable stability increase, what with goa-daemon stopping its RAM usage creep. I don't have to kill it every couple of hours.

New Converge ICT Plan Max with Sky Now

I pulled the trigger on Converge Max plan 400Mbps with Sky channels. I went to their sales office and asked for the upgrade. No charge at all and they didn't ask me to return the old modem. It looks like they will pull it when they install the new modem.e     It came with a black box for the TV. The configuration is easy but it took me 3 days to figure out the Wired connection. It should be fine except I have to jiggle it in the config (GUI). Turn 802.1x  on and off to finally connect.  Here's the speed for the Wired connection:
