Can't make Konqueror as Opera ?

Hello, everybody.
I like Opera. However, Konqueror is the default web browser of KDE. Can Konqueror do the following things ?
1. mouse gesture browsing.
2. password store.
3. drag and drop.
4. user CSS.
5. addon to remove ads, like Noads in opera extension.
6. addon to display next page automatically, like AutoPager in opera extension.
7. addon to download online video, like video download helper in firefox addon.
8. addon to block content, like block content in opera default.
9. addon to open link background with no use of the middle key of mouse, like long-click in opera extension.
10. addon to remove right menu restrictions on some pages, like right menu enable in opera extension.
If no body can't make konqueror do them, how can Konqueror conquer the web?

OK then, let's start with what I know: Konqueror offers adblocking feature by default (you can access all the popular filters), custom stylesheets, password storing (should be possible out of the box via KDE Wallet), drag'n'drop (seems rather obvious... didn't it work for you?). I believe the Konqueror userscripts project(s) seem(s) promising as far as using the wide and growing collection of scripts is concerned (including autopager and YouTube video downloading; you can successfully emulate other functionalities available in Opera with js scripts). Mouse gestures are possible in KDE, including Konqueror, too. Anything else? I hope Google.com can come in handy.
You may also find interesting the rekonq project, just in case you want more KDE native browsing options.
Edit: my head, clumsy head...
Thanks, guys.
"you can successfully emulate other functionalities available in Opera with js scripts" This is what I like most. However, I will try to look a little deeper into Konqueror, and try to make it smooth browsing.

Can IdM make LDAP modrdn operations? (No replies = No can do)

Maybe I am flogging a dead horse, but I am trying to get idM to manage a LDAP resource where the LDAP entries may move in the Directory Information Tree... the usual situation when a person moves department/location/job etc.
I am prepared to believe it can, yet I am starting to dispair of IdM.
If anyone is prepared to answer "Yes", could they please take time to explain to an IdM novice, just how I can influence the Update user workflow so that it is aware of any changes to attributes which affect the DN, ie we need to do a modRDN on the LDAP resource.

Still trying to get this to format correctly - If it doesn't appear OK this time, then reply to the above msg, then hit "Quote Original" and the true code that I added will show up.

Be Careful, make sure you have the business
requirements well defined, moves can be pretty
serious operations to automate.
You might think about changing the users
waveset.organization if the change in facillity also
effects their location in Identity Manager.

You should look at directory Junction - The premise
is that the DIT and the structure in Identity manager
should mirror one another.
Most IdM implementations have strict rules that
follow moves, job transfers and such - so they are
usually put through a custom workflow.
In this case you would need to customize the Update
workflow to handle the case when a e.g. 'location' is
changed. I've been doing this a while, and this is
how I did it at a client.
Lets say they go from
ou=location33,ou=people,o=company.com to
ou=location45,ou=people,o=company.com. What
you need to do is put a transtion (triggered by a
change in the location) that goes to an update and
rename activity.

I have one folder on an XSAN that one machine can not make changes to. Whenever I try to duplicate or copy a file in this folder I get 'The operation can't be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50).'?

I have one folder on an XSAN that one machine can not make changes to. Whenever I try to duplicate or copy a file in this folder I get 'The operation can’t be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -50).'
The permissions are fine, and I have trashed the finder plist and reset the NVRAM.
Anyone have a answer?
Thanks

Tips I received so far (thanks to A-Mac via Twitter http://www.a-mac.nl and Remco Kalf http://www.remcokalf.nl/)
- make sure you have at least 10% of your harddisk in free space (I had only 5%).
- do a PRAM-reset (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379)
- perform a hardware test (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509)
- make a complete backup (with for example Carbone Clone Copier, see http://www.bombich.com/)
- after complete backup: use diskwarrior (boot from Diskwarrior DVD, first perform diagnostics, then perform "Rebuild" which rebuilds your file directory).
So far I only cleared up some space on my HD, and already the problem occurs less.
Still, I will go through the other tips too.
(will post progress)

i'm still looking for solution, but if i there is no solution so i will throw My Own iPhone 4S in the nearest Trash.
(I had got a big problem and thanks for Nokia saved me. and if i don't care about apple products i will never send to you this, so kindly find solution or people in middle east will stop using iphone)

No clue why you cannot make video calls over your cellular operator... have you tried contacting them?
If you're referring to FaceTime, it is currently limited to Wi-Fi only.
Sending files via Bluetooth is not a supported feature of the iPhone or iOS. A simple search of the web or these forums would have made that abundantly clear.
Threatening to throw away valuable items in these forums only serves to make you look less than intelligent. No one here is an Apple employee, we are all users like yourself. As such, we could care less what you do. If you choose to be stupid, that's up to you.
Educate yourself and stop whining.

How can I make this join in ADF and make CRUD operation in this

When I open employee id = 100 for example and add related employee id = 10
this is added with no problem but the requirement is that when I open employee 10 I find employee id 100 as related employee
How can I make this scenario.

The best way to understand this is to look at an example. If you are using an oracle database such as XE for you have a schema called hr. This shema has a number of tables two of which are departments and employees. a department has multiple employees correct. So in your example a employee may be related to x # of other employees perhaps. A very similar scenario as that in the hr Schema. If you don't have an Oracle XE database, download one from here -> http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/express-edition/downloads/index.html
Create Business Components off of the Departments and Employees schema and you'll see that due to the db design, you get what you're talking about for free (i.e. the join). Thus, you have the master-detail relationship you're looking for. For a quick tip, here is the relationship between departments and employees in the hr schema via a create script that you can exam with data inserts included:

How can i make a transition between clips on cutaway?

how can i make a transition between clips on cutaway?

OK, I understand what you mean now! I assumed you were asking about the normal Fade In or Fade Out using the transition from the Transitions panel. But I guess you mean the Fade function specific to a Cutaway. When you double-click on a Cutaway the Inspector opens. Here you can set the Cutaway Fade duration. But as you say, it only provides for both fade in and fade out as one operation - you can't set the fades individually (it's both or nothing).
BUT, try the method outlined by Karsten Schluter above. It will give you the same effect and will enable you to fade either side of the Cutaway (or add other transitions).

How can I make an invalid dynamic disk Array available to the OS again

Hello Storage Pros
The setup
I have a Promise VTrak E610f head unit with 2 VTrak 610j expansion units attached to it together giving me over 27 TB of usable storage space.
At the hardware level I slip the storage into 6 parts containing 7
1TB disks and had the parts configured into 6 RAID 6 arrays. In the end; each of the 6 arrays gives me 4.6TB of usable storage space.
On the OS level, I have the storage attached to 2 servers: Windows server 2008 and windows server 2008 R2 over a Qlogic fiber channel switch. Each of the 6 arrays are viewable as basic disks of 4,6Tb which I went on to configure as a single RAID 0
spanned volume of 27TB and for that all the disks had to be converted to dynamic.
The problem
Now comes the problem: On my first attempt to do a firmware update on the VTrak E610f storage; all the volumes were rendered foreign and I had to import them to be able to use them. Although the import was successful, I lost all the set NTFS permissions
and SMB share and I had to manually reconfigure them. Upon doing so The OS registered some inconsistencies in the storage and recommended that I ran chkdsk. Since the storage is that big I reluctantly complied and restarted the server.
The first server was restarted BUT chkdsk did not commence as scheduled, the server powered right up. After logging in to inspect; I discovered - to my surprise, that the disks were now shown as invalid in Disk Manager and were no longer visible to
the OS. Assuming that maybe a restart of the other server and the storage would set things right, I went ahead to do so but to no avail. After rebooting the entire system (including the storage), the other server also displayed the disks as invalid and were
no longer visible to the OS as well.
My question is; how can I make the disk available again from this ‘invalid’ state without losing data?
What I tried but did not help:
Taking the disks offline and then online again did not work, after the disks were online again, they still appeared as invalid.
Reactivating the disks threw an error “operation not allowed on an invalid disk pack”
Calling support of the storage manufacturer: they did not find anything wrong with the system, after 5 hours we had to stop.
I fear converting the array from dynamic to basic will destroy all the data.
HxD is showing no errors in the disks
If there is any expert out there with helpful tips; your assistance will be greatly appreciate.
Cheers
John

Hello Shoan
Thanks a lot for your response and tips. Sorry I could not get back to you in good time for I had to run some of the tests you provided, it took some time to
thoroughly re-test the system.
The summary
The initial firmware upgrade attempt forced 3 disks offline and the other 3 became foreign. I had to re-import them to have access again. after re-importing
the disks I realized all NTFS permissions and SMB shares of the folders on the disks had disappeared, but at least the disk was visible and accessible at that point - but not fault free. It was recommened that I let chkdsk run. However rebooting the
system to allow chkdsk to run did not result in chkdsk running, instead chkdsk did not run and after restart, the OS showed the disks as invalid. And that is still the case now.
Response to your questions:
Yes the storage array was (and is still) connected to another server 2008 R2 server when the problem occurred. The second server is also displaying the same problem: the disks are shown as invalid.
The loss of SMB shares and NTFS permissions occurred after the initial firmware upgrade attempt, some disks (3 out of 6 of them) were forcibly offlined and the other 3 were, suddenly, marked as foreign. In the end, and to have access to the disks
I had to online the offlined 3 disks and then reimport the rest of them. From the way I understand it, if the upgrade was not the cause, then at least it was the trigger.
In as far as converting disks from dynamic to basic, I was not in luck so far:
Three of the companies I have contacted (recommended by promise Technology technician) so far only work with smaller disks like 2TB, 27 TB like I have is so
far too big.
I’m not sure converting the disks to basic will help much though, since that would break the single 27 TB volume which the OS was working with into 6 individual
disks of 4.6 TB. Will I be able to get the data back that was written to just one volume from those 6 individual and unrelated disks?
Above all, I have connected the RAID storage system to a newly installed Server 2008 R2, the disks are also shown as invalid.
I have spent more than 17 hours in remote sessions with a Promise Technology technician trying the resolve the issue. From the technician’s side all seems in place with the exception
that the disks are invalid in the OS.
I have contacted Microsoft Customer Support service with the issue. Given that Microsoft did not manufacture the storage unit, can they help at this point – or am I better off
putting my hopes else?
Your help is always appreciated and again, thanks for your response and advice.

How can I/Can I make Firefox the default .PDF viewer in Windows 7?

For the basic PDF viewing I do, Adobe Reader is just slow and annoying. I love using Firefox, but unfortunately I cannot set it as the default program to open PDF files. Even when I select Firefox after right clicking and select open with, Windows does not comply. Is there a config option I can change that will allow me to set Firefox as the default PDF reader.
Thank you for your help.

You can not make Firefox the default for viewing PDF files for the entire Windows Operating System, only the default viewer from within Firefox. Like when PDF files that are downloaded from websites and displayed in Firefox; you can try using '''File > Open File''' from within Firefox to view PDF file that are already saved on that PC, but I'm not sure that will work - I haven't tried doing that.

Can't make «class ctnr» of alias - error message in script

I'm trying to take Apple's own "Add To File Names" script from a few years back and get it to work in 10.6.x but keep getting this error:
Can’t make «class ctnr» of alias "Macintosh HD:Library:Scripts:add to names.scpt" into type text.
I'm not an AppleScript expert by any stretch of the imagination. I'll paste the entire script unedited from Apple:
Add Prefix-Suffix to File Names
This script is designed to add a prefix or suffix to files in the front window of the desktop.
If no folder windows are open, the script will effect items on the desktop.

Any idea how to fix that?
Try replacing the following three lines:
else
*set the newfilename to the (the current_name & the prefixorsuffix) as string*
*end if*
with these ones:
else
*set name_extension to the name extension of this_info*
*set P to offset of name_extension in current_name*
*if P > 0 then*
*set current_name to text 1 through (P - 2) of current_name*
*set name_extension to "." & name_extension*
else
*set name_extension to ""*
*end if*
*set the newfilename to the (the current_name & the prefixorsuffix & name_extension) as string*
*end if*

On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability.
