Anybody using OSS?
On the advice of someone who said that Second Life works better with OSS than it does with ALSA, I installed OSS and removed ALSA from my list of startup daemons in rc.conf, then rebooted.
When I try to start OSS using soundon or manually with modprobe osscore, I get:
FATAL: Error inserting osscore (/lib/modules/2.6.33-ARCH/kernel/oss/osscore.ko): Invalid module format
nothing that I can tell is wrong with it. File reports
/lib/modules/2.6.33-ARCH/kernel/oss/osscore.ko: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped
I'm using the stock kernel26, everything updated to bleeding edge as of this morning; CPU is AMD Athlon x64 and sound card is an onboard Intel HD which works fine with ALSA (except some voice chat features in Second Life that I was hoping to clear up with OSS).
I have no idea what "Invalid file format" even means. The only google result for it references a bug #564202 in Debian that is marked as closed as of March 2010, but a download of the binaries from opensound.com gives me no modules -- only userspace files. Since those are useless without working modules, the fix from OSS doesn't help.
Any clue what that error means and how to fix it?
Yes I did, thanks. No conflicting sound drivers are being loaded, and I don't get an error like "device /dev/pcm is already in use". It just refuses to load the module because it is an "invalid file format".
I built a custom kernel -- which entailed compiling new OSS modules -- and OSS loads just fine from the custom kernel. Unfortunately I can't use that either because nVidia won't install ("you are using a xen kernel!", which I'm not), but that's a whole 'nother can of frustration.
{sigh} I guess given the choices between no voice chat in a single game, no sound at all, or sound but no video drivers I'll go back to ALSA and live without voice chat. But it's little irritations like this which drive me off in search of another distro... and then I come crawling back when I find all the others are even worse. What was it somebody posted in my rant thread the last time I came back to Arch? "Arch: The distro that doesn't suck as much as the others"

Has anybody used 0CO_PC_PCP_03
Hi all
i was wondering if anybody used the extractor 0CO_PC_PCP_03 for cost estimate itemization. I know that it is basically used for SEM but came to know that it can be used for BW after applying few OSS notes.
If at all anybody used this extractor for BW please let me know its validity.
We have already applied the following OSS notes for this extractor :
743357
774376
But we are still not sure if we are getting correct data.
Any help would be appriciated.Hi Patrick.
thanks for your reply.
i have applied 3 OSS notes to 0CO_PC_PCP_03 in R/3 but we are still missing certain material cost estimates although these material entries are found in KEKO and CKIS tables and are with quantity structure. I know that this extractor only extracts material cost estimates with quantity structure.
it would be great if you could answer few of my questions.
1.Does this extractor takes into consideration any other factors relating to Material cost estimates.
2.what we notice is it brings BOM details only for primary cost elements. is this how this extractor behaves??
3.what kind of BOM useage it takes into consideration?
Thanks for your time and help. -
Anybody using 11g RAC Database with OIM 9.1.0.2?
Hi,
We have poor performance problems with 11g RAC Database with OIM 9.1.0.2.
It looks like the issue could be because of RAC Ccluster.
Anybody using 11g RAC Database with OIM 9.1.0.2?
If so, What is the JDBC Driver r u using? Also what App Server (Weblogic or OAS etc) ?
Appreciate your input.
Regards
Vijay ChinnasamyWe are using weblogic 10.3. And I am sorry to tell you that we are yet to move to production.
We are planning to have Database in RAC, so i just thought of taking inputs from you.
can you tell me under what operations you face the poor performance issue?
For us the max no. of users in production is around 6k. So I am wondering how this RAC availability will affect the performance.
Thanks for sharing your inputs. -
Is anybody using RDX Removable Disk Backup System
I´m sorry, this a new post about an old discussion but I would like to start a fresh dialogue for today; 2011.
Is anybody using RDX Removable Disk Backup System (with or without T.Machine).
An affordable alternative to LTO tape? Proved compatibility with Mac OS?
Is it possible to insert a RDX drive as a second optic unit inside a Mac Pro?
Any happy RDX+mac user, so far?
Thanks.I'm not using RDX on a Mac, but I do have one client I'm using RDX for a Windows server. While RDX is somewhat cost effective over LTO/Ultrium, IMHO it probably wouldnt' be the best for Time Machine. Time Machine expects the previous backup to be online and if you switch cartridges, TM would have to create a new backup from scratch. Then if you switch back the cartridges, your TM bundles are out of sync. I'm not saying it's not possible, but that this is not the "normal" way TM works. So you need to understand what you need to do if you were planning to switch cartridges. (If you weren't planning to switch cartridges, then a "normal" external or internal hard drive is more cost effective than RDX.)
RDX cartridges are basically 2.5" SATA hard drives. The RDX "drive" is, for the most part, just a SATA to USB converter. (Or SATA to eSATA or whatever interface you get.) On the PC the advantage is that you don't have to "safely remove hardware" and you don't lose the drive letter. On the Mac, a "normal" external hard drive is almost as convinient as RDX, since there's no drive letter to worry about. The RDX's advantage on the Mac would be not having to plug/unplug a USB cable on the external units. I suppose you could get an internal eSATA RDX to put into a Mac. I don't know of anyone doing that.
I did use my client's USB RDX drive on his Macbook, just to see what we could do with it. While it worked, we didn't do extensive testing so I can't comment on long term satisfaction with OSX. But so far it's been reliable with Windows for almost two years. (Windows Server 2008 with Backup Exec 2010.) However since RDX is basically just a hard drive, I've gotten the client to realize that in a year or two, we'll probably have to start replacing cartridges, assuming his data size doesn't grow beyond the RDX capacity. This is based on the assumption that the RDX cartridges would have similar longevity to laptop hard drives, which have 3-5 year warranties. We probably will get more lifespan than that, but better to have the client plan in the budget now, rather than have backups fail. -
Has anybody used the microsoft JDBC 2.0 driver for sql server 2000?
Hi,
Has anybody used the JDBC 2.0 driver for sql server 2000 downloadable from the
microsoft website?When I try using it with WL 6.1 sp1 it says it can't load the
driver.I try viewing the class file from the jar file using the jar utility it
gives an unknown Zip format error.Anybody has any solution for this ?If anybody
has managed to work with this microsoft driver i will be grateful if they provide
me with a solution.
Thanks
ThomasHello Thomas,
You may want to download the driver again and install it again.
heres a sample xml tag in the config.xml:
<JDBCConnectionPool
DriverName="com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver"
InitialCapacity="3" MaxCapacity="12" Name="MSpool"
Password="{3DES}fUz1bxR0zDg=" Properties="user=uid"
Targets="myserver"
URL="jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://mydbserver:1433"/>
ensure that you follow the instructions from Microsoft. For using 2000
driver you will need to have
Install_dir/lib/msbase.jar and Install_dir/lib/msutil.jar in addition to
Install_dir/lib/mssqlserver.jar in the CLASSPATH.

Anybody using Hypersonic SQL in JSP?
Hello,
Does anybody use Hypersonic SQL?
I implement a guestbook system with JSP that
saves data in Hypersonic SQL. This system
runs on www.mycgiserver.com. My JSP program
has thread safe option set to false to make
sure one thread is reading and writing the database
at a time. However, every once in a while, the
database will be wiped out mysteriously.
So I am just wondering that this happens to
anyone else? Is this a Hypersonic SQL's bug
or it's the server that goofs up or I did something
wrong with the JSP setting? Any ideas or
comments please? Thanks !!!Hi there!
I use Hypersonic locally and on mycgiserver.com. Luckilly, I haven't encountered your problems so far. I use a similar approach, I have a bean that handles a singleton-connection to the DB, and that will queue up all requests. But so far , I haven't had that much load on the app, so maybe I'll get back in this matter, with the same problem... Anyone att mycgiserver that had an id�a?

And How can I set them to connecting each other ?
I have founded a document relate it on the cisco website that name is Integrating Cisco WiSM and Firewall Service Module.
I have a question concern it.
Why do I have make a VRF to communication each other ?
Please let me know.As far as the FWSM is concerned you can have each of the wireless vlans come in to the same context of the FWSM and then just add those vlans to the FWSM as separate vlans.

Has anybody used DocumentBuilder.parse(URL)
Hi friends
Has anybody used DocumentBuilder.parse(URL) for make document object.
I have the following piece of code
<code>
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
System.out.println("| Start | Fetch xml"); // ------------ 1
Document document = builder.parse("http://some url that gives back XML");
System.out.println("| Stop | Fetch xml"); // ------------- 2
</code>
Now the problem is .. once in a while the code will hang at point 1 and will never reach point 2. Exception handling has been done.. but there are no exceptions being logged. The code simply hangs.
Please let me know if you have also faced the same or similiar problem.
Thanking in anticipation
Partha.Is it similar with a file URL instead a http URL.
Use
Document document = builder.parse("file://c:/xmlFile");
instead of
Document document = builder.parse("http://some url that gives back XML"); -
Anybody using cTable UI element in real life projects?
Hi guys,
just curious, since there is very few content about the client side table (available since NW 7.30) Web Dynpro ABAP UI element here on SDN ( sap help link )
Is anybody using this UI element in a more ore less complex application? Since I'd like to discuss several things like the "useAvailableHeight" attribute or the personalization features but I don't know if anybody cares. However, cya!Hi Johns,
BizTalk is OLTP system, yes. But latency is an issue in my case. I need <100 msec latency for the MessageBox round trip for most cases. In some cases I need <10 msec.
And SSD is so cheap, we could replace burned disk each couple months, if we need. It would be still cheaper than good hard-drive subsystem.
And we tolerate some message lost. At last we use now the custom made HA solution and didn't find any problems with, no lost messages.

Anybody using jikes in production environment?

-ramu"Joe Herbers" <[email protected]> wrote in message
news:3aa69c84$[email protected]..
We were going to use jikes when we switched to 1.3, but had a few problems
with it. It compiles much faster than Sun's JDK, but it would
occasionally crash. We could recompile the stuff that crashed andproceed,
but that concerned us (I don't recall if there was anything else). So we
bought the latest version of VisualCafe (Professional and Enterprise
Editions have a fast 1.3 compiler) since we had used their 1.1 compiler in
production in the past.We've been using Jikes for months now without any serious problems. I've
never known it to crash. (Jikes 1.12, JDK 1.3, Redhat Linux 6.2, WL 5.1) The
caveat I could offer you is that Jikes is much more willing to generate
warning messages than javac. In particular, I've noticed that it will throw
annoying messages on Weblogic's ejbc-generated code unless you specifically
suppress warnings.

Is anybody using Virtual PC Home Edition for Mac 7
Hi,
Is anybody using Virtual PC Home Edition for Mac 7 & is it any good?
Have you had any problems?
JeffVirtual PC is outdated and probably doesn't even run under Snow Leopard (since you're posting in the Snow Leopard forum).
For running Windows software next to Mac software, your current choices are Parallels Desktop, VMWare Fusion, VirtualBox, and others. All will run much faster than Virtual PC anyway. -
Irssi-users: anybody using irssi-xmpp? How to install as user?
hi guys,
I'm using irssi as irc client and would like to use / integrate the jabber plugin irssi-xmpp
Unfortunately I have no su rights the specific machine, so I'd have to compile + install it as user.
Also, the dependencies loudmouth and irssi-dev might or might not be installed.
Has anybody ever done this?
or
Is anybody using the module irssi-xmpp like this?
I figure I'd have to download the dependencies to my home and compile irssi-xmpp in there linking to the downloaded dependencies,
is that correct?
Thanks in advance,

To actually answer your question, yes you are correct. In the make file for irssi-xmpp you will need to tell it where those dependencies are located. -
Anybody use Transport Copies using CHaRM
Hi
Did anybody use transport copies options in CHaRM? When I use it's displaying only the transport created using CHaRM. But I need the transport created outside CHaRM?
By the time configured CHaRM, developer already working on the development system and created quite bit of Transport requests. Now wants to include all those transport request into CHaRM created transport request.
Looking for 2 options.
1) Register Transport Requests
2) Transport Copies
Tried both are not working. If any otherway please suggest.
Thanks
AvaHi,
The option 'Register Transport Requests' will only link the outside transports to the maintenance cycle. You can't work on these transports through a Correction Document (such as Normal Correction ).
In case you have already created transports outside of chaRM and these transports are not yet released you can do the following:
1. Create a Change Request and Correction Document
2. Create a transport request from this correction document
3. In the development system to go to se09 and use the option 'Merge Requests' (and not include objects). This will delete the previous request and move all your objects to the request created through chaRM (and you will not run into any lock issues).
4. For the transports which are released you can use the 'Include Objects' option.
The transport of Copies functionality when used from within ChaRM will create a copy of your original transport and move it to the QAS system. It will not load the production buffer. In case you find any issues while testing in QAS, you can still go back in DEV and add changes to te original transport request. This way all your work gets added to the same TR and you can keep doing transport of copies for testing in QAS. Once your are ready you can release your original TR.
Thanks,

Anybody using their intel i-mac for professional use?
Is anybody using Intel i-Mac for professional use? (Music or video production?). I went to the Apple store here and checked the Powermac G5 2.0, Intel i-Mac and a Macbook pro. They all seem equally fast. (I tried loading songs in Garageband, opening multiple apps, switching between them, loading samples etc). What's your experience?
Have been using PhotoShop and InDesign and have found "saving" to be a problems sometimes when you have made a number of changes. The spinning ball keeps spinning. Suggest that anyone using it (Rosetta) save more frequently as I've had to Force Quit on some documents more frequently with loss of work.
