Conf Screen

Dear consultants,
I want to add some fields in Co11n screen, Kindly pour some ideas on this topic,

Venkat,
You may need to activate and use customer exit "CONFPP07": Inclusion of customer-defined subscreens in the single entry screen (Transaction CO11N).
Check this code sample ...[Code Sample|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/AdditionofcustomfieldstoCO11NTcode]

Also, there are utilities like OnyX that will change the screenshot settings.
But this AppleScript is my favorite.

This application is a GUI method for changing the screenshot (screen capture) settings in Mac OS X v10.4 (Tiger).
Note that you can also drag-n-drop a folder onto this application to change the default location.

Dual monitor setup without Xinerama or TwinView

I've searched the forum looking for anyone who is using a dual display setup without using Xinerama or TwinView. There are plenty of discussions to the contrary, but I running one window manager (DWM) on my primary monitor and anything else on the secondary monitor. I don't care about dragging between displays or any of the other features of Xinerama and TwinView offer, but my current implementation is rather crude.
So, I'm looking for a discussion on the this topic.
Current setup:
* Thinkpad T61 with NVIDIA M140 graphics
* Samsung 24" external monitor (245bw)

Procyon wrote:
Vintendo wrote:I would like two instances of dwm, one for each screen.
Default dual head does this. So no twinview or xinerama.
Edit: and you run it with
DISPLAY=:0.0 setsid dwm &
DISPLAY=:0.1 setsid dwm &
You can even use two different executables built from different config.h. It's fun to experiment with.
and you setup the resolutions via xorg.conf "screen" section right?

Adobe LiveCycle ES 8.2 Installation Error can't configure the App Server from Config Manager

Hello All-
We are trying to install the Adobe LiveCycle ES 8.2 SP2 and we are getting some issues while configuring the Application Server from the Config Manager, not sure why are those showing up, we never had these issues before when we installed 8.0, please look at the lcm log and the screenshot I provided for the errors which we are getting.
We are trying to configure the remote Application Server WebSphere on Linux from my machine which is on Windows and i made the target Application Server as WebSphere and target platform as linux when i initially installed the livecycle media.
The LCM logs say it failed to run the jacl scripts in the LiveCycle root directory and we wonder why is it pointing for the target Application Server to the Application Server which resides on my machine rather than it should point to the one on server. I am not sure what's going on and we did exactly what we did for 8.0.
Below are the environment details where we are trying to install.
Adobe LiveCycle ES: 8.2 SP2
Database: IBM DB2 9.1 FP4.
JVM Version and Vendor: 1.5.0 IBM Corporation
Application server: IBM WebSphere Application Server/6.1.0.19
Operating System: Linux
Hardware: x86 .
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks-
Karthik.

Hi All,
Even i was facing the same issue but i was able to resolve it.
Although the earlier reply from karthik_chowdary was sent way back in 2008 and i think would have got resolved till now, but still the resolution which i have found is
The port i was using on the app server conf screen was that of application server HTTP Port.
But here in case of WebSphere ND, we need to use port specified in WAS UI > System administrator > Deployment manager > Ports
Try using that by default it is 8879.
And this resolved the issue.

Email iPod mini and Mac

Hi. I have seen other people ask this question and not been answered so I will try to be the exception.
I got my wife an iPod mini for Christmas to replace her kindle fire. One major reason I did this was because she said she wanted her email on her mobile device.
I just configured it last night according to the instructions, and each email is still only appearing on one device - depends on which one sees it first.
(BTW - Mimi's email confit screen looks nothing like the screenshots from Mac support. )
Any help would be appreciated.
MK

if it's pop3 email then you have to set it not to delete the mails when downloading them

KDEmod3 screensaver & Multihead issue

Right now in KDEmod3, the screensaver is setup so that there is only one big screensaver that covers both of the displays. Is it possible to have two different screensavers running at the same time (one per display)? I've got it working in Fedora 10 (it does this by default), but I have no idea how to set it up on my own.
computer: dv4419us (laptop)
graphics: intel 915 gms integrated graphics (using intel driver)
desktop environment: KDEmod3 (3.5.10)
xorg config: see here >> http://www.silverimaging.net/xorg.conf
screen setup: to the left of the laptop, a 1680x1050 attached via VGA. The laptop's built-in display is 1280x800.
Thanks in advance

Hi mate,
I don't know what you mean, but the login screen I see has got a grey background with two fields, one for the user ID and the other one for the password.
When I exit the screensaver, I only see a little box with my avatar and one field to type in the password.
Having said that, I forgot to mention my Mac is an iMac, and not a portable one; I don't think the problem is the power supply because the problem shows up randomly and, at times, it doesn't happen at all for entire weeks.
This 'uptime' you're talking about, is it a command line? How can I launch it in order to check those statistics?
And, most important thing, once I know it was a reboot, what should or could I do?
Thanks a lot,
blade0r

Multiple virtual resolutions

How can I toggle the virtual resolution while maintainig physical one without x-server restart?
I tried to make my xorg.conf Screen Section look like
Section "Screen"

and tried to switch them with Ctrl+Alt+Numpad+ but nothing happens.

Hi Sharmishtha,
Based on your description, it seems that your question is more related with the IIS configuration, I will recommend you post it in IIS Forums for better support.

A single screen resolution in xorg.conf, YET X11 still startups wrong

Hi. There's something that has been bugging me for a while. When I boot the first time my thinkpad SL500, usually (95% of the cases) X sets the resolution to 1024x768. Yet the ONLY screen res available in xorg.conf is 1280 x 800. In order to get to 1280x 800 I init 4 && init 5 every time. Why is this and how to fix it?

As you can see, there's also a problem with the keyboard. How to get it working? Currently the keyboard layout is set via my DM.
Thanks.

As I understand it your xorg.conf file needs fixing: you have 3 modelines:
Modeline "1280x800@60" 83.91 1280 1312 1624 1656 800 816 824 841
Modeline "1280x800" 104.35 1280 1360 1496 1712 800 801 804 835
Modeline "1280x800" 88.68 1280 1352 1488 1696 800 801 804 830
in the Monitor section. Two of them have the same name, and in the in the Display section you are referring to a fourth mode "1280x800_60.00" that is never defined before.
Instead find out the correct mode from you monitor specs, then compute its modeline via cvt, then put that modeline into the Monitor section and refer to it in the display section.

Turn off screen after a certain time in xorg.conf

added
Option "DPMS" "true"
to monitor
and
Option "OffTime" "1"
to serverflags
and it doesn't work.

[SOLVED]xorg.conf, my screen doesn't fit on my screen

Hi, I've got everything set up & working well except for my screen. The desktop is too big for the monitor, about a third of it is hidden off the monitor to the bottom right. I've looked at the wiki and tried xrandr, but no dice. I'm using the VESA driver which has always worked ok in other distros. Actually the crunchbang splashscreen was like this, but otherwise it was normal. I tried the openchrome driver, got a blank screen. Searched other BBS too. I don't know the term for this problem to search for. The drivers off the VIA site are for older kernels, I'd rather just get it working with VESA, with a 1Ghz CPU I don't see myself doing much in 3D anyway.

5-screen (multi-monitor) nVidia xorg.conf -- my setup

Hi. I would like to share my xorg.conf, since it took forever to get right.
There isn't a lot of information out there for folks using > 2 monitors, or several graphics cards, or esoteric setups including rotation etc. I hope this will be useful; I wouldn't mind contributing to the wiki if anybody thinks it might be useful.
So first up: hardware. I have
nVidia GeForce GTX 550 Ti connected to a 24" monitor (in the middle)
nVidia GeForce 210 connected to two 19" monitors, rotated into portrait (on either side of the 24")
nVidia GeForce GT 440 connected to two 15" monitors (above the 24")
here is a picture of the monitors, click for a bigger version
Drivers: I'm using the official nVidia drivers, I couldn't get nouveau to work. Since I am using Xinerama, the XRandR extension isn't loaded -- therefore my setup won't be suitable for people whose screen configuration changes dynamically. But I'd prefer not to use Xinerama, and even to use nouveau if possible; if anybody has a similar configuration working with nouveau, please share
Finally, the actual config itself. Here it is on pastebin.
Rotation
The correct way to rotate monitors in xorg.conf is through the metamodes option of the Screen section. On my Screen 2 and 4 (the two 19" monitors), you can see that
{ Rotation = left }
has been added at the end of the metamodes option. Contrary to some other guides floating around, it is not necessary to specify these options:
# Unnecessary
Option "RandRRotate" "on"
Option "Rotate" "right"
I believe these come from an earlier version of Xorg. They don't have any effect when I put them in my xorg.conf, using Xorg 1.12.4 and nVidia 304.43.
Even when I specified rotate in metamodes, my monitors didn't appear to rotate because I had originally written
Option "metamodes" "CRT-1: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { Rotation = left} "
instead of
Option "metamodes" "DFP-1: nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { Rotation = left} "
This just made rotation fail silently, with no error message. Make sure to specify DFP if you're using a digital output (DVI, HDMI, DP) and CRT only if you're using a VGA output on your graphics board.
Tips
When you're testing out a new Xorg.conf, you can use
startx -- :1
to start a new X server without killing the current one. See if your configuration works, then switch back to your original X server by pressing Cmd-Alt-F7.
You should also keep a log of different configurations you have tried. You can use a version control system like git to track changes to your Xorg.conf; make sure you document every change you have made, and why, it can prove invaluable later on.
Feel free to ask about this setup. I would like to know something: what is the function of the Screen option in the Device section? On the four Device entries for my nVidia 210 and 440 cards, there is an option called Screen; when I take it out, the setup breaks. Why are they there? And why do they not map to the screen numbers in the Screen section? (They are numbered 0, 0, 1, 1 rather than 1, 2, 3, 4)

Thank you for the reply. I read the wiki page, but unfortunately I am still struggling with my two nvidia gpu, three monitor setup.
The red arrows show the pointer progression through the monitors (moving mouse left to right). When the cursor is on the top monitor, it becomes an X, and the screen is black.
Here is the matching xorg.conf

Based on this post on archlinux, I took a crack at matching the xorg.conf pattern above (monitor/device/screen sections) with my own. I took it as a victory that it actually didn't error (many xorg.conf experiments have in the last couple of days have). Here is my new xorg.conf with 3 screens/3 monitors/3 devices:

This what appears with the new xorg.conf:
"leftAcer" and "rightAcer" appear, but nothing appears on "topAcer" (it appears not to be getting a signal from the gpu). I can move the mouse pointer between "leftAcer" and "rightAcer".
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Here are a few details about the hardware setup:
GeForce 9600 GT is in the PCI:1 slot. It's DVI out is going to "acerLeft", it's VGA out is going to "acerRight".
GeForce GT 610 is in PCI:2 slot. It's VGA out is going to "acerTop".
thanks!

[SOLVED] Virtual screen resolution in xorg.conf being ignored

I'm trying to configure a dual monitor set up but xrandr is telling me the max screen size is 1600x1600. I have already enterd a virtual resolution in xorg.conf.

When I first installed Arch I was using the radeon drivers. I had no problem configuring my monitors the way I wanted. Now I'm using catalyst and getting errors.
Am I just doing something wrong?

I didn't really fix the issue with xrandr, but I did manage to get my dual monitors to work with Xinerama.

Xorg.conf - Acer 2016W screen

Hello,
yesterday I bought a new screen (acer 2016W) and I'd like to know how I should reconfigure my xorg.conf to be able to use its maximal resolution (1680*1050). I suppose I should add a line in the modelines but I don't know how.
By the alsa suppose I should replace the "DPMS" option by "LCD" - Am I right?
Thanks

This is what I changed when adding an LCD widescreen. I also connect mine via DVI.
