    From Stephen Atkins@1:342/13 to All on Mon Jan 18 11:03:21 2016
    So it's been a challange getting MBSE to run under ArchLinux. My main problem has been the new systemd for services. I'm still having and issue with getting
    it to start up at boot properly. Also seems that mbtask will fail after a while if I run it from a local tty. If anyone has had any luck with getting MBSE to work on a systemd envrionment please let me know.

    Hello Stephen!
    I will have to download a copy of ArchLinux and see what I can do. It's probably a case of needing to modify the installation scripts to put things where a systemd system expects them.


    Here is what I have currently for my systemd. It doesn't currently work but might give you a start.
