Am I suppose to use pulseaudio for my microphone?

In audacity, if I select my mic with alsa it works fine. But selecting pulse I get no mic sound. So my mic doesn't work in skype, wine, etc...
Is there suppose to be some way of getting the mic working with pulse, or should programs be selected to use alsa for the input?

Short - no, you are suppose to use whatever you want. Little longer - is it usb of some sort, did you read wiki for skype and pulse? Also last time i check wine does not support pusleaudio.

  • What instance number and config set number am I supposed to use for ODISRV?

    I'm trying to get one way sync working from ADS to OID using the OID that comes with Collaboration Suite 10.1.2 on Windows. The sync works fine if I run it manually (I forget the command I used for that). I can see user accounts show up in the DIT. The problem is that the sync never happens on a scheduled basis and it looks like it is due to ODISRV not running even after I did what the docs said and attempted to start it. It started with no errors but I guess the log file contained all the actual errors.
    The docs say to specify an instance number > 0 and a config set. Well, it's clear as mud as to which number to actually use. I assmed the configset value happened to match the nubmer in the Directory Manager GUI under the Integration Server entry (which was configset1 for me). I've tried to specify 1 2 and 3 for the instance numbers and I don't know what I'm supposed to use (and some of them are already being used so the command fails). How many instances are there running by default for ODISRV and how many for OID itself? What number should I be using based on that?
    Here are some entries in my logs:
    oidldap01s1304.log- OpName=search, duplicate while inserting in Hash Table.
    My comment on that snippet is a duplicate what? and what the hell hash table is it trying to use? The info isn't helpful at all.
    odisrv02.log- port 389/profile grp 999: registration failure, config set 1 already being executed by instance 0
    odisrv01.log- port 636/profile default: config set 0 already being executed by instance 2.
    oidmon.log - retry counts exceeded are listed for both odisrv01 and 02
    In all those logs the those errors keep repeating. I don't need OID on port 636 so is there a way I can stop/delete that while I'm fixing the sync issue? I saw nothing in the OEM website that allowed me to remove the SSL configuration.
    If I try stopping either instance 0 or 1 and try to restart I can't because the instance number is already used. What the hell am I supposed to do then? That means I can stop everything and not be able to start anything back up, does it not?
    any ideas how to make sense of this mess oracle developed?

    There are two configsets by default. Configset 1 is
    for synchronization and Configset 0 is used by
    provisioning (again, these are default settings).
    You cannot have two odisrv (Provisioning and Synch)
    with the same instance #.
    So, instance 1 could be Provisioning and instance 2
    could be Synch.
    Have you setup your synchronization mapping files?
    I would suggest you use the DIPTester utility to
    setup the synch. It might also be helpful to post the
    commands and the odisrv* logs (not the full dump, but
    the last snippet).Well I was trying to use ConfigSet 1 for synchronization but it either wouldn't let me because of how it is designed or I had screwed it up at that point since I didn't know what numbers to use for anything and it prevented me from using Set1 because of that. In the end I created a ConfigSet 2 and was able to get another instance of ODISRV running with that. That finally got the sync working on a scheduled basis. I'm now trying to get SSO working between OID and ADS and it seems that OID is too stupid to know that a user exists. I log onto the Windows PC into the domain and attempt to go to http://ssoServer.com:7778/pls/portal and login and I get an authorization denied message.
    I have debugging turned on as much as I can and the defaultIsland log file (forget the full filename but its an OC4J file in $ORACLE_HOME\opmn\logs directory). It says that I was denied access because the user could not be found and yet I see the user in the directory tree and it comes back in a search as well. The krbprinicipalname, uid, and orclcommonprinicipalname (I think that's what it's called) are all the same ([email protected]) and the orclusersearchbase is set to dc=mycompany,dc=com so I don't know why the account can't be found.
    ANy ideas on that issue?

    My problem started after installing "smartsync app" which is supposed to sync my phone with the profilepage photos of my friends in facebook. All my apps crashed after using them for awhile.While using my apps, they will black out after a little while and the phone returns to the starting page. I have removed the smartsync app but my phone still behaves the same way. At the same time the dates that accompany my messages changed to another language. How can these be rectified?

    Eek.  Sounds like something in the app caused some serious software issues.  You can try a hard reset, but I'd imagine you're probably going to have to do an iTunes restore to get it running right again.

    I'm new using Logic, i've been using garageband for quite awhile now though but my question is just basic. When i want to record electric guitar while clicking the software option it brings me to alot of guitar sounds that i want to chose. I chose the twangy electric or the distorted strat but i only hear clean sounds. No matter what kind of guitar sound i chose in the library it only produces clean guitar. How can i make it sound like it supposed to? Did i miss something i should do?

    This definitely has me stumped as I'm unsure as to why your guitar can be heard, but with none of the channel strips plugins applied to the sound.
    On the record enabled channel strip that contains your guitar input, is the "I" button located near the "R" active? Also, if you record your guitar, can you hear the FX applied to it when you play back the recorded track?

  • How am I supposed to use Find My iPhone?

    I do not understand how you are supposed to use Find My iPhone, FROM my iPhone.. it doesn't make sense to me.
    Shouldn't there be a Find My iPhone app on the Macbook?
    Also I have not recieved a verification email for my iCloud Apple ID setup.
    It keeps telling me to "Check Email" yet nothing is there...
    If you could help me with anything, that would be great.
    Thanks..

    you use www.icloud.com to serach for your devices from a mac or any pc via webbrowser.
    or the find my iphone.app to search for your device from your second device/ a friends device.
    If a mac runs 10.7.2 it will also be searchable if  "find my Mac" is activated in icloud preference pane.
    Again, you use any Internet-Cafe or a second PC/Mac to seach your lost devices or Macs.

  • Problem with uploading data from excel using BDC for tcode f-02

    Hi All,
    I am uploading data from excel using BDC for tcode f-02. The problem here is, while recording, the values of some fields are recording twice. I dont know why it's happening so. But if I run my abap program, I have to give those fields twice in my excel sheet. Otherwise data does not upload. But it is not the feasible way. We must give those fields once in excel. Please tell me, how I can solve the issue.
    With regards,
    Rosaline.

    Hi,
      in BDC each and every action is recording. If your press enter in same screen that also recorded once aging may be this is your case repeating field values will appear. we can solve the problem for repeat fields like below.
    suppose in your excel having repeated field X1 X2 X3 the X2 contains repeated field X3 means delete the X3 field.
    Now In your itab having X1 and X2 fields. While in the LOOP the ITAB pass the X2 field to repeated the fields.
    LOOP at ITAB to WA.
    CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
    bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'BDC_CURSOR'.
    bdcdata_wa-fval = 'RM08M-EBELN'.
    APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
    CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
    bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'INVFO-BLDAT'.
    bdcdata_wa-fval = wa-X2." 1st time pass the X2 fields
    APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
    CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
    bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'INVFO-BLDAT'.
    bdcdata_wa-fval = wa-X2." pass the same value to repeated field
    APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
    Endloop.
    Hope you can understand.

  • Need Some Help in Using Log4j for logging

    Hi
    I am using Log4j for logging in my application . i have problem some areas .

    Plz Tell me which propety i used to set my logfile name like DATeFormat
    i tried with this Property but failed
    log4j.appender.R.File=%d{HH:MM}
    Simlarly i dont want to bound BackupSize
    log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=1000
    i want that suppose after 2 Mb automatically start new file and there is no upper bound on that
    how can i do that or from where i can see all properties of Log4j Thanks

    Thanks
    But in this case i cannot do Size based rotation
    These properties not belong to DialyRolling.. class
    log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=1KB
    log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=1000
    what i want is if file size grow with in one minute i create new file using RollingFileApender and if size doesnt grow in one minute and minute cross then next minute file should be created , how can i acheive both of these

  • I have used Firefox for years on my Mac laptop for years, I tried to update to version 4 and now I have no Firefox and every time I download the the Firefox the emblem has a awhite circle with a cross through it, so I can't drag it to applications.

    The support page is ridiculous, it assumes you already have Firefox and that the install went fine. I am having trouble with an update to Version 4. I have an ibook G4 running OS X. I have used Firefox for years. When I downloaded the update, the Firefox logo thing that you are supposed to drag to the Applications folder has a white circle with a line through it. I have rebooted many times and have updated all other software.

    Hello,
    I wouldn't trust any Firefox "update" from a non-Mozilla website. Sometimes, unofficial builds contain adware or malware. If you want to use Firefox for AOL do so at your own risk.

  • Using XPath for DOM traversal

    This question falls into the category of 'I know it's possible, I just need to find the idom in Java'.
    I'm coming from a MSFT world were the DOM-centric model of XML processing makes heavy use of XPATH for node selection. Basically using the method element.selectNodes(XPathExpresson) allows one to quickly extract the relevant subset of the parsed tree in the DOM as a nodeList. I've become accustomed to using XML for all strucutured storage that doesn't require a full database.
    The W3C DOM Level 3 spec supports evaluateExpression() for this purpose, but I can't believe that Java developers are still using tree traversal waiting for the spec to be implemented. I suppose that I could use getNodesByTagName(), but this is a chainsaw, and I need a scalpel. Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how, exactly, this gets done in Java.
    I figure the following are possibilities:
    1) It's in JAXP and I missed it
    2) One or more of the XML parsers supports XPATH as an extention
    3) There's a common package that sits on top of the DOM Document.
    4) There's a standard way to apply and XSLT methods to the DOM document
    5) Something I've never thought of.
    This is a generalized problem for me, so I can't rely on object serialization, Java-XML data mapping, etc. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    I've written a Config file reader for XML in java,
    and it extracts values using XPath. This is
    some of the code you'll need:
    imports:
    import javax.xml.transform.TransformerException;
    import org.w3c.dom.*;
    import org.xml.sax.InputSource;
    import org.xml.sax.SAXException;
    import org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser;
    import org.apache.xpath.XPathAPI;
    import org.apache.xpath.objects.*;
    Document doc=....;
    * returns a single DOM Node from the config file.
    public Node getNode(String xpath) throws ConfigException {
    try {
    return XPathAPI.selectSingleNode(doc, xpath);
    } catch (TransformerException e) {
    throw new ConfigException("Can't find '"+xpath+"' ("+e.getMessage()+")");

  • Why using workarea for internal table is better in performance

    Please tell me
    why using workarea for internal table is better in performance

    Hi Vineet ,
      Why would we choose to use an internal table without a header line when it is easier to code one  with a header line?
    it has following reason.
    1)Separate Internal Table Work Area:
         The work area (staging area) defined for the internal table   is not limited to use with just one internal table.
    take ex-
    Suppose you want two internal tables for EMPLOYEE – one to contain all records and one to contain only those records where country = ‘USA’.  You could create both of these internal tables without header lines and use only one work area to load data into both of them. You would append all records from the work area into the first internal table.  You would conditionally append the ‘USA’ records from the same work area into the second internal table.
    2)  Performance Issues:  Using an internal table without a header line is more efficient than one  with a header line
    3) Nested Internal Tables:  If you want to include an internal table within a structure or another   internal table, you must use one without a header line.
    If this one is helpful ,then rewards me
    Regards

  • Is there a way to force kmix to use pulseaudio? [SOLVED]

    I am using pulseaudio and the phonon-vlc backend, most of the time Kmix will use pulseaudio, but on some occasions I will reboot and kmix will be using alsa (it will show up as Master instead of Internal Audio Analog Stereo) and I have to kill kmix and restart kmix in order for Kmix to control pulseaudio again.
    I was wondering if maybe there is something I can put into kmixs config file to always force pulseaudio in kmix

    I've had the same problem for almost one year. The problem is that kmix starts before pulseaudio does, so kmix only have access to primary volume control.
    KDE4 startup applications are stored in /usr/share/autostart, /etc/xdg/autostart and ~/.kde4/Autostart. The first directory contains the system programs that must be loaded, and the second and third directories contains user applications. KMix, when installed, stores kmix_autostart.desktop and restore_kmix_volumes.desktop in /usr/share/autostart, and pulseaudio stores pulseaudio-kde.desktop under /etc/xdg/autostart directory.
    Moving /usr/share/autostart/kmix_autostart.desktop and /usr/share/autostart/restore_kmix_volumes.desktop to /etc/xdg/autostart seems to solve the problem, allowing to pulseaudio start before kmix.
    A delay of almost 9 months jajaja. That was a very frustrating problem.
    Ufff thank you, finally I solved my issue.
    I had done what u say but it didn't work. So, I moved too /etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio* to /usr/share/autostart/ and I got it.
    The files I moved are pulseaudio-kde.desktop and pulseaudio.desktop.
    Thank you !!!
