Best way to debug KDE process crashes

I've got a relatively fresh install of ARCH with KDE running.  However every time I reboot and log in I immediately get 2 pop-ups stating that KMix and a KDE Deamon closed unexpectedly.  The "executable" for both is listed as kdenitit4.  I'm assuming that is the app that started the failed process?  Checking the PIDs for each in the process list before closing the pop-ups show kmix and kded4 as the actual stopped processes.
Question then, what is the best way to debug this.  I know there are system logs but I'm really not that familiar with where or what to look for and really want to learn and also fix the crashes :-)   What is the best way to start.  Thanks,
John.........

Here is some of the lines around the 2 KCrash errors:

I marked the original two KCrash's with >> to make them easier to find.  Looking a few lines down from the 2nd one I also see a KCrash for 'kmix' which is also part of the problem.  Don't really see anything else interesting.  Open to ideas.  Thanks,

  • What's the best way to prevent KDE from using pulseaudio?

    What's the best way to prevent KDE from using pulseaudio if it is required to be installed for gnome?

    KDE system Settings > Mulitmedia  (in Hardware category) > Audio and Video options > Audio Playback
    the default device shown there is the pulseaudio device, move it to the bottom of the list
    Check all sub entries under Audio Playback to make sure they all have default at the bottom.
    This SHOULD make KDE sound subsystem use the real hardware directly through Alsa instead of pulseaudio.

  • The best way to debug a deployment

    I have an application written in JDeveloper and it runs like a dream. The problem is that when I deploy it to Oracle App Server, I cant get it to run. I am using the JDeveloper deployment profile for creating my jars/wars/ears. I have build many of these in the past and they all work well. There is obviously something I am doing wrong with this one. How can I go about debugging my deployment. I've been stuck on this one for a long time and need to make some progress. Please help.
    Thanks,
    Cory

    In my personal opinion there is no "best" way, but here's what I always do:
    1. Check main settings
    2. Check main logfiles
    3. Check database
    First you have to check the main settings, like data sources, OC4J-settings and JVM-settings. A type-o in your settings could kill your deployment. Also, if you are using jms, make sure that the correct topics are registered in jms.xml If all is o.k., then proceed to step 2.
    Secondly you should check the standard out for the OC4J where you are deploying the application. This is located at $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/logs/$OC4J_NAME_default_island_1. You can also redirect the standard out by setting de -out parameter in the server settings. This should also contain some helpfull clues (like missing references to property files, typ-o's, wrong classpath, etc.)
    Finally if all this is OK and you application still isn't starting (but by then it is deployed) you should check the state of the database. It should be up and running, and containing the correct version of the application's datamodel. Removing rows from quartz tabels (if used) also helps while redeploying.
    This is roughly my starting debugging route. Does this give you any pointers?

  • Threading issues - Best way to debug

    Hey everyone... I have a small server program that I wrote in Java. Its module based where each thread that is created runs through a list of modules and returns the output. It works just fine and I am doing a little stress test using Siege. I set it up running 50 concurrent users with no delay and take millions of requests with no errors at all.
    However, when I move it up to 125 concurrent users, I start getting NullPointerExceptions on a fairly routine basis (inside of one of the modules). The server is still running with no issues, just with that many users it appears to have a bug.
    I was wondering what the best way figure out why this would be happening. Or is this kind of thing to be expected and I should just implement some method of throttling for the threads. I plan to do that eventually, just trying to get the bugs out first.
    Thanks in advance!

    I think you are seeing the NPE concurrent scenario because of the assumptions you code is making about how JVM should behave. You code may be making assumption of "happens-before" pattern which may seem valid when you look at the code, but in fact are not.
    Take a look at this presentation that outlines the Java Memory model and defines the contract between concurrent programs and JVM.
    http://developers.sun.com/learning/javaoneonline/j1sessn.jsp?sessn=TS-1630&yr=2006&track=coreplatform
    Throttling the method is a bad idea (and a cop out). How would you arrive at the optimal number threads that can safely access your program ? Will your code be portable when it is deployed on a computer with different computing power than what you are testing on ?
    Hope this helps.

  • Best way to modify Sequential Process Model for report generation.

    I am using the Sequential Process Model in my application and the TestStand Reference Manual, (Figure A-1), clearly shows the following processing sequence:
    ...<part removed>
        Call the Test Sequence
        Display the UUT results
        Generate a Report
        Log Result to a Database
    ...<more removed>
    I want to generate the report BEFORE displaying the results to the operator, or at a minimum, I want to generate the report in parallel with displaying the results to the operator.  Currently, the problem I have is that when the test is done I have some automated scripts that take the data file and do some statistical processing on it, but the way the Sequential Process Model is set up, the test might finish but until the operator acknowledges the PASS/FAIL results display, the resulting file is never created.  It could be overnight, over the weekend, or several days before an operator comes back and says, "Oh that last test finished, I guess I can press the OK button!", but until they do, I get no data.  So I want the report generated no matter what, and right after the test finishes.
    Any ideas as to how that might be best accomplished?
    Thanks a billion -  Ski (noob)

    Ray,
    Is that new in 4.2 that the engine won't call a callback with nothing in it?  I just did it and it seemed to work fine.  I'm using 4.1.1 though.
    Ski,
    Maybe there is a better solution for what you want.  Are you using the SequentialModel?  What version of TS do you use?  Why does the report have to be written before the pass/fail banner displays?  The pass/fail banner gets displayed in the PostUUT callback.  Like Ray said if you just put that in your client sequence you won't see the banners.  However, I'm assuming there is more to this than just that.  I'm assuming you want to see the report because of your external analyzer that is gathering the statistical data.  And then based on that data you want to allow the user other options.  Is this correct? 
    If so then I would override the PostUUT callback and then use a different callback (possible the ProcessCleanup callback) to displaly the banners.  You could even do this without modifying the process model (which I always try to avoid).  Just override both the PostUUT and ProcessCleanup callbacks.  And then put code in the ProcessCleanup to behave like you need.
    Or if you want you can modify the process model and create a new callback lower in the process model.  Then have that new one do the post report analysis.
    Just some thoughts.

  • Best way to spawn java processes

    I'm trying to execute several instances of a java class in seperate processes to be distributed on a cluster.
    for now (until i get on the cluster on monday) i am assuming my classpath and all of the data files are on an NFS storage accessible from all nodes.
    within my for loop, should i just:
                   try {
                        Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("java -classpath " + classpathDir + " " + classToRun + commandLineArgs);
                   catch (Exception e) {
                   }p.s what exceptions should i catch? how do i print an error log file?
    the class that this code will call will then execute mpiBLAST... an mpi program that auto-distributes segments of a large database file and queries them. so each process (maybe 20-40) will then execute this mpiBLAST program... is this a good idea to have more than one mpi program running at the same time, maybe on the same data set?
    I suppose this forum is not the right place for the last question, but I'd still appreciate any suggestions on the try code. thanks!
    C

    p.s what exceptions should i catch? Tis in the API:
    java.lang.Runtime.exec(java.lang.String)
    how do i print an error log file?
    java.lang.Throwable.printStackTrace() / printStackTrace(java.io.PrintStream)

  • What is the best way to run two process in one VI

    Hi all...
    I'm trying to run two process in the same VI at the same time, which do different operations.
    One loop collect data from COM port, the other loop collect data from sound card. And two process should work independently.
    So can I simply put two while loops in the VI?
    The attachments are my VIs. 
    Thank you!!

    You haven't said what your long term goal is, but putting two loops in the same VI that are doing different things is a poor design choice. The problem is that it limits your options for reusing or expanding your code. Queues, events and notifiers all work equally well whether the processes are in a single VI or spread across a dozen VIs.

  • Best way to implement app wide process

    I am working on an application that has a list of art work in an sql report.. I want to be able to add each piece to a collection of items (which is stored in a table), so I added another column to the sql report to store the id of the art work. I am just wondering what is the best way to implement the process to insert the item to the collection of items. Since I want to do this from multiple pages - link from art work sql report; link from the edit page for a particular art work; and on the artists page where there is also an sql report, I thought it may be best to have an application process, to save duplicating the process on multiple pages.. however I don't think there's a way to pass the id of the item to the application process? as I was thinking best to have the application process conditional based on request, and then have the link as a doSubmit().
    So is it best just to have the link redirect to the same page, passing the id of the item, and then having a process that runs before header that inserts the item, then assigning the item to NULL?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Best way to work with multiple photograph angles?

    We are going to be taking 360 degree view photography shots of certain objects and placing these objects on to different backgrounds so the shots will look something like this:
    We expect to have about 20 shots of each object and about 5-10 objects per photoshop file. So basically these will be single images all taken at different angles in which we will also be clipping off the background and placing them on transparent layers so that they can be overlayed onto different backgrounds.
    I'm wondering what would be the best way to streamline this process. We need to be able to pick the correct shot at the right angle to fit the perspective of the background, once we do we will only be using that one image and all of the angles will not need to be used.'
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I've considered creating folders for each object and a different layer under each folder for each angle/shot, however I think that may be a bit tidious to find the right angle. I've also considered creating some kind of an animation so I can scroll through the timeline and the images change in order as if the object was actually spinning in a 3D/360 view like this: http://3dbin.com/public/zummarva but im not sure if that will work or if it would make the photoshop file very big. Ideally I would also like to keep the photoshop files as small as possible.
    I'm not sure if it is possible to use photoshops 3D plugin so the images can be rotated as if it were a 3D object?
    Thanks

  • Debug UP2 processes in SRM

    Hi,
    In SRM few of the transactions use the UP2 type process for update that cannot be debugged like the normal once.For example ,in a extended classic scenario ,when you create a shopping cart and set a break point in the implementation of BADI "BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI",it does not break there.
    Can anyone tell me if there is a way to debug UP2 processes in SRM.
    We are using SRM4.0 SP8.

    Hi Raghu,
    BADI BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI  is called during the transfer, which is done at update task FM BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC_V2
    To go in the debug mode, you need to execute BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC manually with the PO guid
    Function BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC is exactly the starting point: it calls SPOOL_DPO_TRANSFER, after setting the PO status to "in transfer to execution system". You just have to enter the GUID.
    SPOOL_DPO_TRANSFER will later call the META_DPO_TRANSFER... and finally a BDPOTRANSFER ( = depends on your R/3 backend release)
    Hope this helps,
    Regards,
    Yann (thx Chris )

  • HT1338 Update Safari on iPad/ best way not to crash? - eMail Overload

    My Safari often crashes, even though I only have maybe 3 to 4 tabs open. (This is even after a factory reset to new restore as new with only 2 apps installed. So no memory is being used on anything.) And I'm wondering do I need to update it separately or is that automatically done with the update to the iPad? I'm on top of cleaning the cookies and cachet, along w/ deleting history, etc on a reg basis, at least every 3wks.. I do have a lot of bookmarks, I imported from other browsers, and, I've been deleting those since I've discovered the crash is my error not apples. it also had the prob going from a 3rd gen to an air....so...any suggestions on stabilizing this, that I'm overlooking? I appreciate it.
    Also, I have several  emailboxes that aren't always getting their mail (or the mail will come a few days later) ...my primary inbox, says something like 4k msgs, & I feel paralyzed by the #, I do keep chiseling away! but I need help .. these aren't all junk messages either, in fact most of them are not junk messages, they need to be filed, and they need to be glanced at and then discarded or fiiled or rarely replied to. But I've got the iPad set to only sync back 3mo, (I figure I'll handle it in chunks or the desktop)  & I find that my mail is crashing, and that it will often get stuck, as I'm doing searches and trying to mass edit & move. Any suggestions on organization, apps, settings to accommodate the problem?
    All appreciated,
    Blessings,

    Bugs, by definition, affect everybody, all the time. I'm just not seeing 10 million plus users all complaining about this and, believe me, they would be.
    The progress bar can freeze up for any number of different reasons, with who perhaps to blame stretched out all the way from your iPad to your network to your ISP to the net itself to the server that you're connecting to.
    As for best way to proceed, boilerplate follows:
    A more or less standard sequence of steps is laid out in your User's Guide which you should follow in those cases when either your iPad or an app isn't behaving as it should. They sort of mirror 'The Three R's (Restart, Reset, & Restore) that you use for iPod troubleshooting, with a few extra iPad-specific things added in to the list.
    Others here may just print out various parts of that list in their responses. I prefer instead to direct you to p. 170 of your Guide, in the Tips & Troubleshooting section. The directions there will start you out from the quickest and easiest first step, which will often be all you need to do, all the way to your atomic blast fix of totally restoring the iOS and all contents in your iPad.
    You can call AppleCare, and they will probably have you do the same things. Or, you can take it I to a Genius Bar, and they will also go through the same steps. Needless to say, if you work through the whole process without being able to correct your problem, then you've pretty much shot your bolt and will have to start talking to Apple or the app developers for a resolution.
