Arch-0.6-base.iso: request for 'pcmcia' package

Hello,
I use my pcmcia Wi-Fi card on my laptop to access my router-to-cable-modem internet. Would you please consider adding the 'pcmcia' package to the 0.6 release of the 'base.iso'.
Would these requests be better made as a bug-report in the tracker?
Thanx.

OK, I've been mulling this over(can you hear the metal-on-metal scraping sound in my head?). If the base install is, as it has sometimes been refered too, for getting a 'base(ic)' install up-n-runing, then, how do most people get their various dial-up/pcmcia/PPPoE/etc.. systems installed? Is it simply inferred, that, people need to have these packages already available on another CD or local NFS/FTP share?
I was under the impression that the 'base.iso' is for a quick install, followed by completion over a broadband connection(?). What are the other ways people use it?
Thanx.

How to create a new request for whole Package.

Dear All,
I have an unique requirement. we have a system, where developement have been done in phases with different Requests of A Package.
Now we need to apply same package/project on different system. But unable to list/gather all change request of developement. Now, is there any option to make a request for whole package or export whole package (Table, transaction, Program, class, objects etc. Everything of this package) and then theni import into another system.
Regards
Dharmendra

A suggestion:
In Se80, display the package. Right-click on the displayed package name and choose write transport entry. Choose "package". Create the new transport as a "Transport of copies". Choose your target and client as part of your copy request.
BTW, SE80, select object, right click, write transport entry is an easy way to create a new transport for anything you need transported although not changed, such as an entire function group, etc.

Request for Vino package

I don't know if this is where I would post this. I haven't found any way to add comments for the vino package or message to Jan de Groot. What would be the best way to suggest that --enable-avahi be used when compiling vino to enable broadcasting without a recompilation?

You can file a feature request against the package on the bug tracker. In the meantime, you can get the PKGBUILD out of ABS or off the SVN and recompile with the avahi flag.

Critique requested for first package (QMentat)

I wrote a program to practice mental arithmetic, and I've just finished what I hope is a not too terrible attempt at making a PKGBUILD for it. I would greatly appreciate any critiques, pointers, etc. No warnings or errors shown from running namcap, and I paid close attention to the docs, so hopefully it's not too bad.
The PKGBUILD file is here: https://gist.github.com/RealGrep/5432464
The actual program's home page is here: http://realgrep.github.io/QMentat/
Please note that the warnings from a Qt header file when building are an issue with Qt uncovered by gcc 4.8.x, not my program.
Thanks.

You shouldn't need to mkdir in the build and package functions (which solves the need for awkward "../foo" calls), nor should you have to manually clear .git files. Other than that, it seems fine.
As for gmp, it is assumed that the package groups 'base' and 'base-devel' are installed, thus there is no need to add depends on stuff like compilers.
Here's the PKGBUILD with the small tweaks applied: http://ix.io/5hH/sh
I'm not so sure about how it's installing the LICENSE though. That might be passable, although, you could remove it for a little more space saving (since GPL3 is already in /usr/share/license)
`tree -a' => http://ix.io/5hF

Request for someone to enable "bootlogd"

This is not a request for a package per say (hopefully it's simpler):
What I am requesting is for someone to figure out how to enable a boot log file for Arch systems. This means a recorded text file which contains all of the messages echoed to the screen during the boot process -- the ones that usually go by too fast to make any use of and then are lost forever.
1) No, this functionality is not provided by dmesg.
2) Most distributions have such a feature (eg. redhat, debian, ubuntu...)
3) Some distros accomplish the task via a binary called "bootlogd." Arch (at least my arch64 system) has this already (/sbin/bootlogd), though I have not been able to make it work. I don't know if the issue is simply that I don't know where to place the call to the binary (though I know that inside /etc/rc.sysinit after the call to minilogd is *not* the right place), or something deeper. But still I think it is possible, maybe just by putting the call in the right spot in the right script.
4) The action that results from trying what I did in #3 above (putting /sbin/bootlogd in /etc/rc.sysinit after the call to minilogd) is: After boot-up one finds a zero-size log file in the default location (/var/log/boot). If you then remove the call to bootlogd from the sysinit script, reboot, and look in /var/log/ again, you find that the "boot" file is still there, only now it contains the shutdown informational messages (or at least some of them).
5) On a debian system I believe the feature is provided using bootlogd, however they clearly have some files in place that Arch does not, so I don't know how helpful the following might be: edit the contents of "/etc/default/bootlogd" to read:
# Run bootlogd at startup ?
#BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=No
BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes
6) Regarding the man page "BUGS" section: Arch does have the new-style console device: "There is no standard way to find out the real console device if you have a new-style /dev/console device (major 5, minor 1)" however the behavior I describe in #4 above makes me think that it is still working, just needs to be called from precisely the right location.
Several people replied to my initial post(s) that this would be a desirable feature, so please help if you can.
--> BTW, just checked a debian64 system... /dev/console is exactly the same as on my arch64 system.

If your objective is to see all boot messages as they appear on the console,
you can use this solution;
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dis … t_messages
I would also rather have a log of boot messages into /var/log/boot but it seems there isn't a solution
easily available from my searches so far.
Maybe someone will post a solution here.
Cheers

Requesting for [base-devel] packages information

Hi, I have read alot of threads related to this but I think its not yet clear...My arch installer gives me the "base-devel" from "Select Package Categories"...What I would like to know is the package information of every package on the list. Since my netbook has only 8gb of SSD, I can't waste space for unnecessary packages...:( Thanks in advance

Basis Tables - request information stored by user id for a rangle of period

Hello guys,
This is a simple question. How to find the request for a range of user id's for a period of time frame. I want to find out all the request created by a bunch of developers in a give range of time. Is there any report available. I know SE01 shows for a single user. Please let me know the table or a report. Thanks
Senthil

You can get it from TABLE E070

Request for detailed acts to upload Work center, BOM, Routing data in LSMW

Hello PP ANgels,
Request for detailed actions to upload Work center/Resource, BOM, Routing/Recipe data in LSMW.
Thanks in advance

Sanjay,
In the forum I found that you had used some "drops", that require a password to view.
In these forums, the only links I post are public (help.sap.com) and from SAP support (service.sap.com/support). SAP Support is mostly available only to customers and partners of SAP. If you meet these criteria, and need a login for the SAP support site, contact the license administrator for your company's SAP licence (this is usually a Basis person). If you cannot locate this person in your company, contact Service Marketplace directly (service.sap.com/mp). Alternatively you can contact your local SAP Sales office and speak to your account administrator.
Maybe it would be a better idea to group all standard solutions in one place.
I expect it will be so...in Nirvana. Here, life still entails suffering.
With respect to your detailed questions, I would have a hard time answering, I have never used recordings in LSMW to create work centers, I always use standard batch/direct input. I suspect that the VGEXX items are the units of measure from CRHD, I suspect LARXX items are activities from CSSL, and I couldn't comment on FORXX items without doing some research.
This is the SCM PP forum. You might get more answers posting this in the ERP PP forum SAP ERP Manufacturing - Production Planning (SAP PP) , since work centers/routings/recipes/BOMs are more or less irrelevant in SCM.
Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

Request for sample reports developed using report designer

Hi All,
Request for sample reports developed using report designer.
Thanks

Ramesh,
right now there really is no way to solve what you are looking for. There partial solutions, but you will not be able to force a page break in a dynamic report.
Here is what I have faced, and what I have come up with so far:
I have a series of reports that have the same column heading, but spread over 5 pages in a fixed structure. I need to be able to re-use the header and the general report design with 6 reports. Here is my solution:
1. Create an outline of the report. I did all the formatting by creating a report section for each page. You can force page breaks between the pages. Upgrade to patch 1502 (came out last week) and you will see some new functionality (such as fit to page, page numbers, etc).
2. Insert all you page breaks and do all the formatting.
3. Insert an infoprovider. Once in, you can just drag and drop the key figure cells into your formatted report.
4. Create additional modification for formatting as needed.
This fixes my problem (for now), but I had to do a lot of work to come up with this. Also, the latest patch (1501 and 1502) has created an issue for me - there is a null exception when I try to use a variable or a filter value in the report body - I can't save the report. I have an OSS message out, but our BASIS guys are going to be taking the lead on troubleshooting this.
The reason that you are seeing some customers on the new pages is probably because of "how the cookie falls" - they just fit that way.
I am trying to be positive and overcome the limitations that are in place right now. If my technical issue is solved, I would recommend upgrading to the new patch (1403 is the latest stable one in my opinion)
good luck
Pavel

Request for developers to include the Dell Quadro FX 3450 in their beta linux flashplayer for 10.1

request for developers to include the Dell Quadro FX 3450 in their beta linux flashplayer for 10.1. i'm guessing it wouldn't be hard to do. its the same chip that is used in the Nvidia Geforce 6800. It has NV42GL core processor. please don't leave this device behind, any acceleration that can be done to the existing flash player would definitely count, as great.
thank you

Solaris 8.x and 9.x (archive) ISO Request
Hello, can someone please upload or let me know who I can talk to about getting x86 ISO's for Solaris 8.x and 9.x.
I had previously downloaded them legally for free from Sun and had them in my Sun Connection profile for ages. Now they are gone and I need to get them to do patch testing and troubleshooting for the fleet of 8.x boxed I have to work on now. They run on hardware thats too weak for the Solaris 10.x branch.

Here is link to download Solaris 9: http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/9/
but for Solaris 8 as i read is EOL and is not offered for download

Looking for PCMCIA network card

I installed Solaris 8 on my laptop(Compaq Presario 1275),
and am looking for PCMCIA network card to configure
networks. Does anyone have Solaris 8 installed on
laptops and configured networks? If yes, what kind of
PCMCIA network card do you have for your laptop?
I plan to purchase a PCMCIA network card for my laptop?
Any recommendation, vendor, model name?
Thanks,

I am trying to create transport request for item category but when I include it in transport and save it, It give me error
"Object R3TR TABU TVAPT, referred to by the object key, does not exist

The object keys of the request/task cannot be edited because the object (R3TR TABU TVAPT) which is referenced by the object key is not in the request, nor is it going to be added to the request" How can i include these object in my transport
in order to transport them?
Thanks in Advace

Dear Marco
Sorry for late reply.What i did was i asked my basis consultant to modify the traget sytem and customize the item catagory again.I think this is the only solution.If you find another do share with us

How to enable password request for restart and shutdown?

Hi,
I'm neither a Linux nor an Arch Linux newbie, but inexperienced regarding this particular issue.
I want to enable password request for restart and shutdown and want to know if I'm mistaken, because trial and error might become to time-consuming while working on a project.
I read https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … o_shutdown.
$ ls -hAl /usr/bin/shutdown
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Apr 22 03:02 /usr/bin/shutdown -> systemctl
If I try to run $ shutdown -hP 28 or $ shutdown -c nothings happens, I need to run $ sudo shutdown -hP 28 and $ sudo shutdown -c and type a password. That's the way I want it.
If I e.g. run $ shutdown -r now no password is needed. I want to disable this. It should behave the same way as shutdown -hP/-c behave. I want to type
$ sudo shutdown -r now or $ sudo systemctl reboot etc. and then the password should be required.
$ sudo grep -vn "#" /etc/sudoers | grep [[:blank:]]
72:root ALL=(ALL) ALL
73:rocketmouse ALL=(ALL) ALL
The user "rocketmouse" should have all permissions after typing a password, but not without typing the password.
IIUC what's written at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Polkit, I need to edit
$ pkaction | grep login
org.freedesktop.accounts.set-login-option
org.freedesktop.login1.attach-device
org.freedesktop.login1.flush-devices
org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate
org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate-ignore-inhibit

org.freedesktop.login1.inhibit-block-idle

org.freedesktop.login1.suspend
org.freedesktop.login1.suspend-ignore-inhibit
org.freedesktop.login1.suspend-multiple-sessions
org.freedesktop.machine1.login
IOW I need to replace every yes and no etc. with auth_admin in $ grep -v lang /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.login1.policy.
Am I mistaken?
Regards,
Ralf

You'll need to create a rules file which uses javascript.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Po … tion_rules
// /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-admin-shutdown-reboot.rules
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.login1.power-off" ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.login1.power-off-ignore-inhibit" ||
/*...SOME_MORE_IDS_HERE...*/
// return polkit.Result.AUTH_ADMIN_KEEP;
return polkit.Result.AUTH_SELF_KEEP;
