AVR TOOL CHAIN packages almost ready, need some help

Hello
I've made packages for AVR programming: the following
binutils-2.17 -> avr-binutils
gcc-4.1.1 -> avr-gcc
avr-libc-1.4.4 -> avr-libc
avrdude-5.1 -> avrdude
uisp-20050207 -> uisp
whith prefix (installed) at /opt/avr
I would like some help with the following:
[1]
In both `avr-binutils' and `avr-gcc' exists a file with the same name, this is libiberty.a.
if I execute
pacman -A avr-binutils-2.17-1.pkg.tar.gz
and
pacman -A avr-gcc-4.1.1.pkg.tar.gz
i get an error from pacman about the existence of the libiberty.a on the filesystem.
If i force the installation of avr-gcc everything works ok (i mean there is no problem with the installed software, it should work that way if you install it with the ../configure && make && make install way).
what should I do with that? I can't upload conflicting packages.
[2]
PATH and MANPATH must be updated to new ones after installation of packages, how can i do that?
[3] If i leave commented the line
# NOSTRIP="1"
in the /etc/makepkg.conf, the gcc compiles with warnings , which actually are errors for the final installed software. Actually the avr compiler executable is `avr-gcc' and
If I permit makepkg to strip the executables produced, there is a problem.
If I uncomment NOSTRIP but execute later through a `install' script (the usual pre_install , post_install) the strip command everything works fine.
The strip issue is because the binutils and gcc packages are configured with --target=avr (output are executables for avr programming).
Should I do something with that or leave it that way with manual stripping?
my stripping is:
# arg 1: the new package version
post_install() {
find /opt/avr -type d -name bin -exec find {} -type f ; | xargs strip > /dev/null 2>&1
Any ideas why that is happening?
PS. I deleted the --march=i686 from /etc/makepkg.conf , because the packages are configured with --target=avr

[1] Delete the conflicting file from avr-gcc. The dependency relationship with avr-binutils will ensure that the file is in place.
[2] This is done with a script in /etc/profile.d. Have a look at the mozille, gnome, kde, or other current examples to see how it works.

10.4.11 server and MySQL - almost there need some help - socket issue

After having problems with launching the mysql server on the built-in mysql (4.x) on my 10.4 server, I installed 5.1.31 from MySQLCom and followed the install instructions. I attempt to start the server with mysqld_safe as documented.
This appears to actually launches the process, and the error log doesnt show any errors, and it shows up as mysqld in Activity Monitor, but I can't connect to it via mysql client - I keep getting "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket /var/mysql/mysql.sock".
Any suggestions would be very welcome...

Hi,
We sorted the problem, one issue was that we did not have the hostname set to the FQDN that was needed for the home folder mounts, this stopped the proper traversal of the /Network/Servers symbolic link. And the other issue is that on our 10.5 afp servers we needed to have the 'Open Directory Server' option set for LDAP Mappings in Directory Utility to be able to see all users in the 10.4 OD.

Bt infinity way to slow !!! Need some help

We just got bt infinity 1 installed with home hub 5 as well, I did a speed test and it was only getting 10mbps download, 5 Mbps upload and 85 ping, is this good or bad. We currently have 10 devices connected to internet in this house, I can't even watch normal you tube videos in 480p, this is annoying as paid a lot of money for it, I know the problem can rely down to the amount I people connected, it may be also down to where the router is ? Need some help to how we can get best performance and how to share the connection between all of us or how to get more as on the best package available ? Thanks will need all the help as the internet is atrocious right now, almost as bad as our non infinity by home hub 2 we had a few days ago

Can you run this checker and post back a screen shot of the results
http://www.dslchecker.bt.com/adsl/adslchecker.welcome
and use this speed tester then carry out the further diagnostics and post back a screen shot of all the results including your IP profile for up and down. This test must be done with a wired connection.

As you have a Homehub 5 can you also post the stats from 1-12 by logging onto the homehub management pages then troubleshooting > helpdesk. http://bthomehub.home/

Need some help...in need of a different way.

Hi, I'm new to Java and need some help. I have 2 questions that are similar in nature.
1st Question:
In a program that I'm writting I have a do-while loop which at the end brings up a dialog box that asks the user to enter '1' for 'Yes' or '2' for 'No' to continue.
I would rather have the option of having the user enter 'y' or 'Y' for Yes and 'n' or 'N' for No.
Here is what I have currently:
int x;
String data;
do{
//Blah blah code
data = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter 1 for Yes or 2 for No");
x = Integer.parseInt(data);
}while(x == 1);
x++;
2nd Question:
In another part of my program I have a Case statement that asks the user to enter a number or a letter from a list of choices. They can enter '2' , 't', or 'T'.
I would rather have all of this in an if-else chain. Is this possibe? if so, how would I do it.
Thanks.

I would rather have the option of having the user enter 'y' or 'Y' for Yes and 'n' or
'N' for No. You can test the first letter of whatever the user inputs like this:String response = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter (Y)es or (N)o");
response = response.toLowerCase();
if(response.startsWith("y")) {
    // the user entered something starting with y
} else if(response.startsWith("n")) {
    // the user entered something starting with n
} else {
    // what are you going to do?
}JOptionPane also has versions that would allow yes/no buttons. Eg, see:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/dialog.html

Please I need some help with a table

Hi All
I need some help with a table.
My table needs to hold prices that the user can update.
Also has a total of the column.
my question is if the user adds in a new price how can i pick up the value they have just entered and then add it to the total which will be the last row in the table?
I have a loop that gets all the values of the column, so I can get the total but it is when the user adds in a new value that I need some help with.
I have tried using but as I need to set the toal with something like total
    totalTable.setValueAt(total, totalTable.getRowCount()-1,1); I end up with an infinite loop.
Can any one please advise on some way I can get this to work ?
Thanks for reading

Need some help with threads...

Hello all,
I am working on a project at work, and I am not the best programmer in the world. I have been trying to get my head around this for a couple of days and just cannot get it to work.
I am writing an instrumentation control program that will have three threads. One is the GUI, one will receive control information and set up the hardware, and one will check the hardware status and report it to the GUI periodically. I plan on using the invokeLater() method to communicate the status to the GUI and change the status display in the GUI. Communication from the GUI to the controller thread and from the status thread to the controller thread I had planned on being piped input/output stream as appropriate. I have a control class and a status class that need to be communicated over these piped streams. In some trial code I have been unable to wrap the piped input/output streams with object input/output streams. I really need some help with this. Here is the main thread code:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;*
*public class PlayingWithThreads1 {*
public static void main(String[] args) {*
* PipedOutputStream outputPipe = new PipedOutputStream();*
* ObjectOutputStream oos = null;*
* ReceiverThread rt = new ReceiverThread(outputPipe);*
// Start the thread -- First try*
* Thread t = new Thread(rt);*
t.start();*
// Wrap the output pipe with an ObjectOutputStream*
try*
oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outputPipe);*
catch (IOException e)*
System.out.println(e);*
// Start the thread -- Second try*
//Thread t = new Thread(rt);*
//t.start();*
/** Send an object over the pipe. In reality this object will be a
class that contains control or status information */
try
if (!oos.equals(null))
oos.writeObject(new String ("Test"));
catch (IOException e)
try
Thread.sleep(5000);
catch (InterruptedException e)
I read somewhere that it matters where you start the thread relative to where you wrap piped streams with the object streams. So, I tried the two places I felt were obvious to start the thread. These are noted in the comments. Here is the code for the thread.
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class ReceiverThread implements Runnable {
private PipedInputStream inputPipe = new PipedInputStream();
private ObjectInputStream inputObject;
ReceiverThread (PipedOutputStream outputPipe)
System.out.println("Thread initialization - start");
try
inputPipe.connect(outputPipe);
inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);
catch (IOException e)
System.out.println(e);
System.out.println("Thread initialization - complete");
public void run()
System.out.println("Thread started");
try
if (inputObject.available() > 0)
System.out.println(inputObject.read());
catch (IOException e)
System.out.println(e);
Through testing I have determined that no matter where I start the thread, the thread never gets past the "inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);" assignment.
Could someone please help me with this? There are other ways for me to write this program, but this is the one that I would like to make work.
Many thanks in advance,
Rob Hix

Thanks for the help, but that did not work. I tried flushing the ObjectOutputStream and it is still hanging when initializing the thread.
Here is a better look at the code since I was helped to figure out how to insert it:
The main method:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class PlayingWithThreads1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        PipedOutputStream outputPipe = new PipedOutputStream();
        ObjectOutputStream oos = null;
        ReceiverThread rt = new ReceiverThread(outputPipe);
        // Start the thread -- First try
        //Thread t = new Thread(rt);
        //t.start();
        // Wrap the output pipe with an ObjectOutputStream
        try
            oos = new ObjectOutputStream(outputPipe);
            oos.flush();
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
        // Start the thread -- Second try
        Thread t = new Thread(rt);
        t.start();
        /* Send an object over the pipe. In reality this object will be a
         * class that contains control or status information */
        try
            if (!oos.equals(null))
                oos.writeObject(new String ("Test"));
                oos.flush();
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.pringln(e);
        try
            Thread.sleep(5000);
        catch (InterruptedException e)
}The thread code:
package playingwiththreads1;
import java.io.*;
public class ReceiverThread implements Runnable {
    private PipedInputStream inputPipe = new PipedInputStream();
    private ObjectInputStream inputObject;
    ReceiverThread (PipedOutputStream outputPipe)
        System.out.println("Thread initialization - start");
        try
            inputPipe.connect(outputPipe);
            inputObject = new ObjectInputStream(inputPipe);
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
        System.out.println("Thread initialization - complete");
    public void run()
        System.out.println("Thread started");
        try
            if (inputObject.available() > 0)
                System.out.println(inputObject.read());
        catch (IOException e)
            System.out.println(e);
}Does anyone else have and ideas?

Need some help with guitar setup...

jeez, never thought i'd be asking a question like this after playing for like 20 years, but i need some help with a guitar setup for mac. i'm gonna list out a lot of crap here that prolly doesn't affect anything at all, but here goes.
Imac 17inch G4 - latest updated OS X... 10.4, or 5, or whatever. garageband 3.0
digitech gnx-3
alesis sr-16
sure mic's
yamaha e203 keyboard
here's the setup:
yamaha is on its own on a usb uno midi interface, sure's connected to gnx's xlr port, alesis connected to gnx's jam-a-long input, '87 kramer vanguard connected to gnx's guitar input. currently running headphones out on gnx to line in on mac.
here's the problem:
everything works beautifully, but my guitar sounds like crap. if i plug headphones into the gnx, it sounds beautiful. that makes me think its some kind of level issue between the gnx's output, and the mac's input, but nothing seems to fix it.
by sounding like crap, i mean way too much bass. sound is muddy, blurry, not crisp... aka crap. i've tried altering both output and input on mac and gnx, and i cant get a combination that works. the gnx has a s/pdif out, can the mac accept that as input? might that help? short of running the gnx to my marshal half stack and mic'ing that, anyone have any suggestions, or use a similar setup?
any help would be greatly appreciated!

anyone? ... any suggestions? I think it might be an issue with the gnx pre-amping the signal as it goes out, and then the mac amping it on the way in, giving me a buttload more signal than i need, but since i cant find a happy level, i'm not really sure. i really dont want to resort to mic'ing my marshall... even with the volume almost off, my jcm900 is WAY too loud for apartment use. its not like i really NEED the guitar to sound perfect, i only use garageband to sketch out ideas for songs between myself and bandmates, but its really annoying to not have my customary crisp distortion. my bass player keeps telling me to use the built in amps, but, not to dis a practically free program, but the built in amps blow, at least after 10 years of marshall tube amplification they do. if anyone has any suggestions that might be helpfull on how i might resolve this, i would be your best friend for life and go to all your birthday parties

The best tool to add this kind of particle is After Effects.
If you have the Creative Cloud then I recommend you download that.
Slightly annoying voice over, but here is a youtube tutorial you can follow top make floating particals. You can adjust it to make it look exactly as you want.

FLA doing what I want to do, I'd be willing to pay you. It wouldn't
be much, but it would be something. Here's what I'm trying to do:
I need to create an interactive talking-head style flash
presentation with a number of progressive download externally
linked FLV files, playing in succession, supported by movie-clip
text animations and supporting graphics which are triggered by cue
points in the video. I also need a simple navigation menu linking
to the FLV files. I've got some of this down already, namely, I've
laid the FLVs in and they are playing in succession. I'm stuck on
the cue point part. At this point I really just need some hands-on
help. I've bought books, I've scoured the web.
I'm easy to communicate with, and I'm good with computers and
comfortable in many multimedia design programs. Flash is very
powerful, but tougher to learn than I expected, and I'm at the end
of my rope =P

My advice... start with a very simple "proof of concept" project before you attempt the entire package.
It will be much easier to scale up if you first have a very good understanding of what's going on.
So one simple video with just one cuepoint and only one button and additional display. You'll also have to work out the interaction of pausing the video when a cuepoint is reached or button pushed to display the graph, giving the viewer time to read the graph... then when the viewer closes the graph, the video should "resume".
Start very simple and build on that only after you understand the fundamentals.
Second, you mention "video reports"... plural. So that most likely means that you will need a video player with a "playlist".
This may mean that you'll need to learn to use a little .xml to bring in the playlist data. You may also find xml an excellant way to bring other data into you project.
At the link listed above there is an excellant tutorial on "Integrating Flash and XML"
"Flash and XML"
"XML Video Playlist"
"ActionScript 3 XML Basics"
"ActionScript 3 Advanced XML"
Personally I would not even begin a project like this without considering how I could use xml to feed data into the project.
Here's an example of a video player I created that has a playlist, thumbnails, categories, transcipts, "Now Playing" etc. All that data comes into the main .swf via various xml files. Super good way in input data into Flash.

Yours is a rather ambitious project and will take awhile to gain the skill and assemble the pieces. So when you come to a new part... first create a real simple "proof of concept" model so you can learn how that section works. Don't expect to be able to assemble the entire project all at once.
Best wishes,

Already gone through troubleshooting guide a zillion times. Thanks.

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.

TS1702 I need some help the apps were downloading slowly

The apps downloaded but it didn't cause it's stuck in downloading mode what should I do?
The iOS 6 update didn't work.
Please I need some help.

Talking Santa didn't update.

Try moving the existing backup file to a safe location so that iTunes has to create an entire new file. The backup file is located here. You can delete that backup once you get a successfull backup.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.

Need some help: my itunes won't sync with my iphone anymore. Both softwares are up to date and I've reinstalled itunes. After I reinstall, it syncs. But then when I reboot my computer, it no longer syncs anymore and I have to keep reinstalling itunes. Thoughts???

thought that it was possible to have the same iTunes library on any machine that was authorised, a kind of cloud-iTunes I guess.
That would convenient, but sadly it is not the case. Sorry!
Either way your welcome and best of luck!

Need some help in creating Search Help for standard screen/field

I need some help in adding a search-help to a standard screen-field.
Transaction Code - PP01,
Plan Version - Current Plan (PLVAR = '01'),
Object Type - Position ( OTYPE = 'S'),
Click on Infotype Name - Object ( Infotype 1000) and Create.
I need to add search help to fields Object Abbr (P1000-SHORT) / Object Name (P1000-STEXT).
I want to create one custom table with fields, Position Abb, Position Name, Job. Position Abb should be Primary Key. And when object type is Position (S), I should be able to press F4 for Object Abb/Object Name fields and should return Position Abbr and Position Name.
I specify again, I have to add a new search help to standard screen/field and not to enhance it.
This is HR specific transaction. If someone has done similar thing with some other transation, please let me know.
There is no existing search help for these fields. If sm1 ever tried or has an idea how to add new search help to a standard screen/field.
It's urgent.
Thanks in advace. Suitable answers will be rewarded

Hi Pradeep,

A search help exit is a function module for making the input help process described by the search help more flexible than possible with the standard version.
This function module must have the same interface as function module F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE. The search help exit may also have further optional parameters (in particular any EXPORTING parameters).
A search help exit is called at certain timepoints in the input help process.
Note: The source text and long documentation of the above-specified function module (including the long documentation about the parameters) contain information about using search help exits.
Function modules are provided in the function library for operations that are frequently executed in search help exits. The names of these function modules begin with the prefix F4UT_. These function modules can either be used directly as search help exits or used within other search help exits. You can find precise instructions for use in the long documentation for the corresponding function module.
During the input help process, a number of timepoints are defined that each define the beginning of an important operation of the input help process.
If the input help process is defined with a search help having a search help exit, this search help exit is called at each of these timepoints. If required, the search help exit can also influence the process and even determine that the process should be continued at a different timepoint.
timepoints
The following timepoints are defined:
1. SELONE
Call before selecting an elementary search help. The possible elementary search helps are already in SHLP_TAB. This timepoint can be used in a search help exit of a collective search help to restrict the selection possibilities for the elementary search helps.
Entries that are deleted from SHLP_TAB in this step are not offered in the elementary search help selection. If there is only one entry remaining in SHLP_TAB, the dialog box for selecting elementary search helps is skipped. You may not change the next timepoint.
The timepoint is not accessed again if another elementary search help is to be selected during the dialog.
2. PRESEL1
After selecting an elementary search help. Table INTERFACE has not yet been copied to table SELOPT at this timepoint in the definition of the search help (type SHLP_DESCR_T). This means that you can still influence the attachment of the search help to the screen here. (Table INTERFACE contains the information about how the search help parameters are related to the screen fields).
3. PRESEL
Before sending the dialog box for restricting values. This timepoint is suitable for predefining the value restriction or for completely suppressing or copying the dialog.
4. SELECT
Before selecting the values. If you do not want the default selection, you should copy this timepoint with a search help exit. DISP should be set as the next timepoint.
5. DISP
Before displaying the hit list. This timepoint is suitable for restricting the values to be displayed, e.g. depending on authorizations.
6. RETURN (usually as return value for the next timepoint)
The RETURN timepoint should be returned as the next step if a single hit was selected in a search help exit.
It can make sense to change the F4 flow at this timepoint if control of the process sequence of the Transaction should depend on the selected value (typical example: setting SET/GET parameters). However, you should note that the process will then depend on whether a value was entered manually or with an input help.
7. RETTOP
You only go to this timepoint if the input help is controlled by a collective search help. It directly follows the timepoint RETURN. The search help exit of the collective search help, however, is called at timepoint RETTOP.
8. EXIT (only for return as next timepoint)
The EXIT timepoint should be returned as the next step if the user had the opportunity to terminate the dialog within the search help exit.
9. CREATE
The CREATE timepoint is only accessed if the user selects the function "Create new values". This function is only available if field CUSTTAB of the control string CALLCONTROL was given a value not equal to SPACE earlier on.
The name of the (customizing) table to be maintained is normally entered there. The next step returned after CREATE should be SELECT so that the newly entered value can be selected and then displayed.
10. APP1, APP2, APP3
If further pushbuttons are introduced in the hit list with function module F4UT_LIST_EXIT, these timepoints are introduced. They are accessed when the user presses the corresponding pushbutton.
Note: If the F4 help is controlled by a collective search help, the search help exit of the collective search help is called at timepoints SELONE and RETTOP. (RETTOP only if the user selects a value.) At all other timepoints the search help exit of the selected elementary search help is called.
If the F4 help is controlled by an elementary search help, timepoint RETTOP is not executed. The search help exit of the elementary search help is called at timepoint SELONE (at the
F4IF_SHLP_EXIT_EXAMPLE
This module has been created as an example for the interface and design of Search help exits in Search help.
All the interface parameters defined here are mandatory for a function module to be used as a search help exit, because the calling program does not know which parameters are actually used internally.
A search help exit is called repeatedly in connection with several
events during the F4 process. The relevant step of the process is passed on in the CALLCONTROL step. If the module is intended to perform only a few modifications before the step, CALLCONTROL-STEP should remain unchanged.
However, if the step is performed completely by the module, the following step must be returned in CALLCONTROL-STEP.
The module must react with an immediate EXIT to all steps that it does not know or does not want to handle.
Hope this info will help you.
