Confusion about Drivers Page

Hi,
I'm looking at the drivers download page for my Satellite Pro P300 - http://support.toshiba-tie.co.jp/windows7/download/Satellite_Pro_P300_32_au.htm
Against the 1st two entries, it says "Need to be upgrade on Vista".
What does that even mean?
I want to do a clean install of Windows 7 and methodically install each of the relevant drivers. What does "Need to be upgrade on Vista" mean? How will that affect driver installation?
I just want a list of drivers to download and install. Period. It shouldn't be difficult or confusing.

If you have Australian notebook model for downloads use official Toshiba Australia support page under http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/home
You can, of course, make clean Win7 installation. I have done it too on my notebooks. When you install it you will have naked OS and you must install each driver, tool and utility separately, one by one.
Check this download page to see what is available for Win7 and simply start to install all this.
It can happen that some tool is missing for Win7 but you can use Vista stuff too.
It worked for me.
I have Satellite A300 and basicly it is the same as P300 but smaller so you can try to follow my installations order:
-Win7
-chipset driver
-storage manager
-display driver
-sound driver
-modem driver
-supervisor utility
-infrared
-patches
-configfree
-VAP
-Toshiba hardware setup
-HDMI control
-WLAN driver
Everything works well but missing some drivers
Added Vista stuff:
-Toshiba assist - work properly
-Card reader - installed properly
-Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - work properly.
-Synaptics driver
Good luck!

Confused about wiki pages and groups (i'm new to wiki services).

we set up wiki services on our newly upgraded 10.5 server, but there is something that i can't seem to understand.
it seems that the only way to create a new wiki is to create a new group. i don't quite get how you can have some members of one group and some members of another, access the same wiki page.
this will get very messy for our company because we want to set up wikis for the multiple projects we have going. this means that the amount of groups will escalate rapidly and surely will cause problems and confusion.
we currently have 7 groups created on the WGM and my company is about 50 employees.
each group currently has their own wiki which leads me to my original problem/question.
if we create a new wiki, that creates a new group, and we don't want that.
i could totally be missing something here as i mentioned i am new to the wiki services and 10.5 server in general.
if you need more information from me, let me know.
thanks in advance.

anyone?? bueller...? bueller...?
i can't seem to find any information about this. i even looked here http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/ in the wiki documentation and didn't find anything.
perhaps i wasn't entirely clear in my initial post.
say i want people in the accounting and marketing group to share a wiki page. the only way i know how to do this, is to create a new group (let's call it wiki_group) and to have members of both accounting and marketing be members of wiki_group.
as i mentioned in my initial post, this is going to be a huge problem.
the only work-around that i can think of is to have the accounting group and marketing group be members of both. this is not acceptable due to security and resource sharing.
how can i create wikis without having to create a new group, and to have members of other groups view and edit other wikis?

Is Apex confused about a page number?

When I'm on my application page, there are no pages 76, 77 or 78. However, there is a page 79. If I go to the Page Definition , it's still page 79. Iif I click on HTML Header, the breadcrumb says "Page 79." But, just below the breadcrumb, it says, "Page Attributes: 76 of 77."
Is there any way of resyncing these page numbers? By which number should I refer to the page?

The "Page Attributes:" numbers don't refer to the actual page you are on. You're just seeing that the current page you are on is page 76 out of the total of 77 pages. For the actual page number you are editing refer to the page number in the upper right of the region (next to the traffic light) or the breadcrumb as you mentioned.

Swamped and confused about products

Hi guys,
I am new to Oracle middleware products. After looking at a few articles, I am swamped and confused about those products, WebCenter (WC), Content Server (CS), Universal Content Management (UCM).
1. WC has a built-in content database, part of Oracle database. CS also stores contents into Oracle database. Then what are differences between two types of content storage? Can I build WebCenter with Content Server as the content storage?
2. WebCenter provides management functions on content. So does UCM. Users could contribute, review and release contents to web via both. Then what are differences between two types of content management? What more does UMC provide than the built-in content management in WC.
3. Content Server needs a third-party web server (port:80) to publish its content. WebCenter Suite seems use Oracle HTTP Server (port:7777) to render web pages. Is it possible to integrate those two on one web server? Why is Oracle HTTP Server using a weird port?
4. JDeveloper has the built-in OC4J container. But how can JDeveloper access or interact with Content Server or WC content database? Site Studio can access Content Server directly but only provides very limited portlet or ajax components. If I want to store web pages, static or dynamic, into WC and/or CS, which tool should I use?
Can anybody help me with them? Or please point me to the right direction. I really appreciate it.
thanks,
Chen

Plug it in and use the Transfer Purchases function, either from the resulting dialog box or from the File menu. If you need to authorize the computer, choose it from the Store menu.

I also found good (?) information, or at least a clearly-explained article, here. After reading it, UVD appears as the AMD's counterpart of NVIDIA's VDPAU for video acceleration.
What I'm not sure about, is:
- Does it support video acceleration? I'd like to offload video processing to the GPU, but am not sure if my card and the open-source drivers support it or not. Wikipedia's article about VDPAU states it comes from NVIDIA, but then it says it has an open-source implementation.
- What has gallium to do with it? What gallium drivers should I enable in mesa? And what about DRI drivers?
I configured mesa as follows:
./configure --prefix=/usr \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--with-dri-driverdir=/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri \
--with-gallium-drivers=r600 \
--with-dri-drivers=radeon \

--enable-gbm \
--enable-glx-tls \
--enable-dri \
--enable-glx \
--enable-osmesa \
--enable-texture-float \
--enable-xa \
--enable-vdpau
Not sure if I missed something, though.
I am very confused about how Linux manages graphics, and what all those layers are for. DRM, DRI, VDPAU, VA-API, gl, gl3, xv, xvmc... it's a mess!
Thanks in advance.

The feature matrix might help. The easy part to answer is that the 3D driver is split into two parts: DRM which is part of the kernel and DRI which is in userspace and comes from the mesa package.
Xv is an Xserver extension supported by pretty much all drivers. Found in the DDX (xf86-video-*), it uses features of the card to speed up the display of video (but not decoding). It can either do this by using the "video overlay" or creating a shader.
Now if you want to use Xv but also offload decoding to the card, you need a video acceleration API. The ones to choose from are XvMC, VA-API, VDAPU in increasing order of feature support. They were developed by Xorg, Intel, Nvidia respectively but anyone is free to implement them. I don't think it's correct to call UVD a counterpart of VDPAU. UVD is a bunch of registers on newer AMD cards. And if you sent bits to those registers in the right way, you can implement VDPAU.
The other way to implement VDPAU (say if the documentation for UVD registers was not released) is to use gallium. There is a gallium state tracker which can still do it at the expense of being slower. It is a hack whereby you convert video frames to polygon textures and make the OpenGL part of the card think that it's calculating part of a 3D scene when really it's decoding video.

How can I restore the latest BIOS version when it doesn't appear in "Software & Drivers" page ?

When delivered, my brand new Pavilion desktop model 500-282ef was equipped with BIOS version 8014.
On the EFI\HP\Bios partition, only the \Current directory contained another version of the BIOS, an older one, namely version 8013. The \Previous and \New directories were both empty.
Experimenting with my new BIOS, I've unadvertently downgraded my BIOS version 8014 to version 8013.
Now, as you've probably guessed, I would like to restore the latest version
The EFI partition doesn't contain any installer to restore my BIOS to its former up to date version.
Unfortunately, "the drivers and update" page on HP support site does not provide any installer either.
I would be so grateful if some of the nice people here would ask HP to point me to such (probably unreleased) updater which should obviously exist.
I have saved a copy of my second Pavilion desktop BIOS using safawin.exe in the hope I could use it to achieve a restore. But I've been unable to use it to restore the latest BIOS as the restore process also requires a signature file.
Thank you very much for your help!

Yes Dave, that's what I meant: during the "downgrade" from BIOS version 8013 to version 8014, no BIOS backup files were created and I couldn't found anything in any directory of the EFI partition.
In an attempt to solve the problem, I have put manually a copy of the BIOS (v 8014) from my second Pavilion Desktop (same model, same age) in the "\New" directory. That BIOS file was created with the safuwin.exe utility.
That has been a nice step forward: Now, from the Boot page, the Firmware Management offers me the update option ("You will update from 8013 to 8014, OK?") but when I try to so, I got a error message saying that a signature file should also be present along with the BIOS file to flash.
In the EFI\HP\BiosUpdate directory I do see some signature files like HpBiosUpdate.s14 and HpBiosUpdate32.s14 which could be the signature files I need, but I have no idea about how to use them (or maybe rename them?) to allow the procedure to complete successfully.
Concerning the warranty, do you suggest I should invoke it ? Could you please clarify ? Actually my PC has no other problem than this BIOS "downgrade".
I trust that HP has in store all the files I need, which have probably been used when configuring my PC in the factory. My problem is to have these files available in the "Software & Drivers" page on HP site...
Thank you very much for your help. I stay tuned

Confused about color vs. b/w photos for printing...and more

I reading confusing things about exporting a PDF for printing with both color and black and white images used in the same document.
If I export to PDF and do a soft-proof and it looks okay, is that sufficient? If so, what's confusing about that, since this is my first print project, which Simulation Profile do I use? Is there a chart somewhere that compares U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 to let's say 80 lb Gloss book with Aqueous coating (C2S)?
I don't know what any of this means. So, is there a good article on this site, elsewhere, or an online printer who can help a rookie like me ensure I end up with a decent product?
UPrinting.com advertises a "Free Project Review" that includes the following:
Our team will run your file through a 30-point inspection, covering technical issues including:
Artwork dimensions
Bleed setup
Low resolution images
Elements that are not within the safe zone
Image clipping
Font sizes
Un-embedded fonts
Folding setup
Page scaling
Line weights
Proper text spacing (compressed/expanded)
Narrow borders that are at risk of being cut
Compliance with USPS Mailing Guidelines
Bindery setup for multi-page artwork
What should I do? Is this trustworthy as long as I get a contract proof? Is there a "Go To" online printer that everyone loves (not sure you can recommend that here) or should I seek out a local printer?
I'm using CS4 and have a file that's (maybe) ready to go but am looking at a learning curve of days if not weeks if I have to figure it all out myself.
Thanks everyone.
Paul

InDesign puts grayscale and B&W (bitmap mode) art on the Black plate, where it belongs, so if you soft proof using the CMYK profile for your expected output conditions your preview will be accurate for the grayscale and B&W images as they will appear in print. presuming your monitor is calibrated and profiled so that you can trust what you see.
Aqueous coating is applied AFTER the printing to protect, and possible enhance the glossiness of, the page (but not all coatings are glossy). This is not the same thing as printing on coated paper, which has a glossy surface and high ink holdout (and improves detail reproduction and usually will geive better color). You should be using whatever profile the printer has specified.

Confused about usage of usage types (NW2004s vs. NW 7.1 vs. NW mobile 7.1)

Hello all
I'm confused about the different combination possibilities / restrictions when it comes to compare NW2004s, NW PI 7.1 PI and NW Mobile 7.1. I already consulted the Master Guides and technical installation guides but am still confused. So if someone could shed some more light on it it would be great!
We plan to implement our interfaces, whether internal (system to system) or external (customers, suppliers) using XI (now called PI, right?). But we also intend to develop and run mobile apps (occasionally conected ones). So my questions around it are:
1) Do we need to install at least two separate servers for this? I mean:
- 1 server for SAP Netweaver PI 7.1
- 1 server for SAP Netweaver Mobile 7.1
2) Or is possible to have all this on one single server using SAP Netweaver 2004s with usage types AS ABAP, PI and Mobile.
3) Is usage type AS JAVA required when choosing usage type Mobile?
4) What would you recommend for production environments (note: I'm aware of the sizing / scaling question but I'm only interested in some kind of best practices advices in terms of maintenance, patching, etc.).
Thanks anyone for some input on it
BR
Renaud

Thanks Russell and Larissa for your clarifications.
Re-checked the master guide for NW 2004s (7.0) and now found the relevant text in chapter 3.3.1 on pages 30 + 31. Must have overlooked it the 1st time.
Other questions:
a) What is the difference between a installation of NW 7.0 with usage type AS ABAP and PI compared to NW PI 7.1 ?!?
b) What is the difference between an installation of NW 7.0 with usage type AS ABAP and Mobile compared to NW Mobile 7.1 ?!?
Do the 7.1 versions contain real newer releases or is it just another packaging of same components? What are the advanteges of the 7.1 versions?
Thanks again in advance for some more clarification!

Udev: confusion about identifier ATTRS{idProduct}

Hi,
i'm confused about how exactly udev identifies a device, imho the idProduct identifier is (in this specific case) inconsistent.
Short story:
'lsusb' and 'udeadm info' indentify the devices idProduct as "1002", but to get udev rules working i have to use ATTRS{idProduct}=="1001" though.
Long story:
I have this usb-to-midi device (midisport 2x2), which needs to load firmware to work (midisport-firmware). This is the udev rule to load the firmware:
#/etc/udev/rules.d/42-midisport-firmware.rules
# MidiSport 2x2
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0763", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1001", RUN+="/sbin/fxload -s /usr/share/usb/maudio/MidiSportLoader.ihx -I /usr/share/usb/maudio/MidiSport2x2.ihx -D %N"
This rule ("idProduct=1001") works!
Changing "idProduct" to "1002" does not work.
However, here's the output of
~# lsusb
Bus 003 Device 007: ID 0763:1002 Midiman MidiSport 2x2
and

which both indicate, the correct idProduct would be "1002"!?
The midisport box is the only device where this inconsistence appears, all other usb-devices (hdds, sticks, sound card, dvb-t stick, mp3 player) get identified as expected.
I want to know, if anybody can explain this/ if anybody has had similar experiences!

Looking at the udevadm info output, it shows ATTR{idproduct}=="1002" and ATTRS{idproduct}=="0001" and your rule uses ATTRS{idproduct}=="1001".
Have you tried with just ATTR{idproduct}=="1002" (note no S)? Looking at the output of info, I would still not expect ATTRS{idproduct}=="1001" to work, but udev's changed a fair bit in the last few years and the old bible for rules is way out of date.

Confused About Catch Up

Hi everyone, So I have just had Sky installed and I am a little confused about some aspects of it and I hope someone can give me some advice. The catch up service: Is it normal for there to be very little actual content in the catch up section?When I was looking at the various options on offer, one of the things that I really liked the look of was the '30 day catch up service'.
I (possibly incorrectly) assumed this would mean I could access the vast majority (if not all) of the programmes shown on Sky for the last 30 days. When I look in the catch up section, there is very little choice there.For example - in the sky channels section, sorted by day - for last Saturday there are only four shows. Is this a fault or is catch up a whole lot less than it promises to be? I have the family package by the way and I realise that I can only access channels and catch up that I am subscribed to but it seems very poor to me that the 'catch up' service amounts to just a handful of shows, most of which I am not interested in. Strangely, when I manually search in the search box for a specific show, I get on-demand results that I cannot find anywhere else in the EPG. Is there more on demand content there but only if you know exactly what you want to search for and use the search box? It seems odd to me that I have to know what I want to watch and search for it manually, I cannot just browse a list of available shows. Pushed on demand: So the way I understand it is this, my 500GB hard drive has 250GB partitioned off for the sky box to download content to overnight. Where do I access this content?I can't find any of it.I have read the manual and it says I will see a little play icon on content that is available to watch which, I assume, refers to content automatically downloaded by the box. I have seen this icon on one show. That's it. Is 250GB of space being used for nothing?Can I get that space to use for my own downloads and recordings?I know there is a setting to turn off 'pushed on demand' but does this free up the space reserved? Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere or if I am asking stupid questions and thanks in advance for any replies. Broddr.

Thanks for the reply Annie.
I did as you suggested and still get no more.
Pressing the green button and selecting channels just splits the five shows up into their specific channel.
I have five shows total.
I select Nat Geo channel and it shows the three of those five shows that are on Nat Geo.
I select Nat Geo Wild and it shows the remaining two of those five shows that are on the Wild channel.
I have been through all the system settings and every page on the box OS again and again and I am coming to the conclusion that I do not have a problem as such, rather the service is simply pants!
Apparently my 'catch up' service for Nat Geo for the last four days consists of one programme!
I suppose for an 'extra' service I can't really complain, but the touted '30 day catch up service' was one of the main reasons I signed up.
I would argue they should not really call it 'catch up'.
'Selected highlights' is probably more accurate.
"Catch up on the best of sky over the last thirty days - as long as, for example, what you want to catch up on SyFy is Dark Matter and Defiance 'cos that's all there is."

I'm horribly confused about student licensing and commercial use

As the title says I'm horribly confused about student licensing and using it for commercial use.
I currently have a Student Licensing version of Adobe Creative Suite 4 that I purchased through my school's journeyEd portal.
Seeing how CS5 is now out I was browsing looking at prices (why not upgrade while I'm still a student, right?) and while browsing I bumped into one source that says that Student Licensing can not be used for commercial purposes, and this is when the confusion started. I remember reading before that we are able to use student licensing for commercial purposes, okay time to google search. I found one Adobe FAQ that says I can. .
http://www.adobe.com/education/students/studentteacheredition/faq.html
" Can I use my Adobe Student and Teacher Edition software for commercial use?
Yes. You may purchase a Student and Teacher Edition for personal as well as commercial use. "
and I found this old thread;
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/314304
Where an poster listed as an employee of Adobe states
"There is no upgrade from the CS3 Educational Edition to the comparable CS3 editions sold in non-academic environments. If you have an educational version of for CS3 obtained legitimately (i.e., you qualified for the educational version when you obtained it), you may continue to use that software for the indefinite future, even for commercial use! You cannot sell or otherwise transfer that license, though! When the next version of the Creative Suite is released, you will have two choices: (1) If you still qualify for the educational version, you can buy a copy of that next version (there is no special upgrade pricing from one educational version to another; the price is already very low) or (2) you can upgrade from the educational version of CS3 to the full version of the next version of the Creative Suite as an upgrade from CS3 at the prices published at that time. "
Okay cool, hmm what this? Adobe is asking me if I want to IM with live costumer service agent, sure why not? Then the conversation started and I asked her my question about using my CS4 license for commercial use, she asks for my product code and email to verify my product, then informs me I can purchase the upgrade version of CS5 and use that for commercial, okay great, but not really answering my question. I reword it and give her a link to that FAQ page it goes like this. ..
"[CS Rep] : [My name], I would like to inform you that Adobe Student and Teacher Editions are not allowed for
commercial use.
[CS Rep] : However, you can upgrade your current software to a normal upgrade version, and you can continue
using it for commercial purpose.
[Me] : Then is the FAQ page mistaken? Because it is very misleading if it is. But thank you for the information.
[CS Rep] : You are welcome.
[CS Rep] : I apologize for the misleading information in the FAQ."
. .And after that, I went back to being confused.
SO my questions are. . . Can I or can't I use my Adobe Creative Suite 4 student licensing for commercial purposes? and If I purchase a Student Licensing of CS5 can I use that for commercial purposes as well?
Sorry for the long post, I just want to be perfectly clear on what I can and can not do with my purchase.

The rules differ in various parts of the world. In North America you can use it for commercial work.
There are no student/academic upgrades. The pricing is so low that in many cases you're better off buying another full student license but you are eligible for upgrade pricing for commercial versions once you're out of school.
You may not transfer the student license in any way.

A little Confused About Apps...

Hi Everyone,
I've been looking at the iPod Touch and it seems like the best-designed player on the market. I'm a journalist and I want to use the Touch to play my interviews, which are voice recordings in WMA format (converted to MP3).
OK, I'd love to do some basic things, and I'm confused about what the June update will offer.
Please tell me if the June apps will allow these capabilities:
1. Play voice recordings with the speaker instead of headphones
2. Allow me to create a folder on the home page to go directly to my voice recordings
3. Drag-and-drop files in Windows explorer directly into a folder on the home page
Yes, I know, I'm trying to use the Touch for an unusual thing, but I think there are a lot of other journalists and bloggers out there who would also use the Touch if it could provide these capabilities!
I'm not interested in fancy games for the Touch. I'm much more interested in expanding basic capabilities.
If I know the Touch will be able to do these things, I'd buy one today!
Thanks,
Matt

neuroanatomist,
Thanks for the response. This is all very interesting...
I understand it's not a real speaker, but I have heard some demos where it was used to play rudimentary sounds. That's why I wonder if it would be good enough for simple voice playback.
I know some people like this, but I don't like is having to always drill down several "layers" to get to my actual recordings. Instead of having to do Music > Album > Playlist, I'd really like to just have folders on the home page. To my mind, this does not sound like a difficult thing to be able to do, though maybe I'm missing something here.
On the drag-and-drop thing: of course, I understand Apple's need to force us to use iTunes. I like iTunes, and use it for music all the time, even though I don't have an iPod at the moment. But it just seems to me that Apple would not suffer if you could drag and drop your valid music files (or voice recordings) directly into folders on the iPod. You'd still have to own legal music files, bought from iTunes.
Anyway, if these hurdles could be overcome, I'd buy an iPod Touch today. At the moment, it's a tough choice. Several other players do some of the things I am asking for, though none of them has the elegance of the iPod.
I just wish Apple would put their elegance together with the capabilities of other players.

Confusion about applet

sir
i have confusion about applet that if an applet compile successfully but on running it shows a exception message about "main"that no such method exist.help me out please

The full text of the error message would make it easier for us to see what is wrong BUT it sounds like you are trying to run the Applet as an applicaiton from the comand line rather than through an HTML tag in an HTML page loaded into your browser!
Though you can make Applets run as applications it not normal to do so.

Confused about word processing on macs - do i need to buy extra software?

Hi, am about to buy a new macbook (first mac- am switching over) but am very confused about the word processing facilities which come with. do i need to buy microsoft office for mac to use word etc or can i use something similar which comes with OS X (is it text edit?)? is this compatible with a word environment at work? thanks!
macbook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

I've personally always hated Microsoft Word, but have it because that's the "standard," and at the time I bought my MacBook, the Intel Mac version of NeoOffice (which is free) wasn't out yet. NeoOffice is now out for Intel-based Macs, and it seems to be every bit as powerful as Microsoft Office (and quite compatible).
However, for most things I do, I've found I actually like Pages the best. It's very easy to use, though if you do any special things in word processing it might not meet all your needs. It will open Word documents, and if you have to send something as a Word document, you can export it in Word format.
I would recommend that you try out the Pages trial that came with your Mac, and download NeoOffice for free. Try them both - go with what you like and what works best for you. I use Pages the most, NeoOffice for things Pages won't do, and Word if I'm forced to. (And I always have my old WordPerfect that I've used for years that I can run in Windows.)

Live Update confused about versions installed?

I have a MSI Neo4 Platinum and first I installed the Marvell LAN Drivers via Live Update (Version 7.14.1.3). This driver did however seem to be very unstable (the network connection dropped after a few minutes of use), so I went to Windows Update and picked the Marvell Driver there. It shows up under the Driver Tab as version 7.29.4.3". This driver seems very stable and my dropped connection problem is gone. I had this problem on two different installations of this board.
When I now run Live Driver, it incorrectly reports that my current version is 7.14.1.3 (not 7.29.4.3). It is obviously confused about shich version I'm running.
Anyone else seen this problem?

olavt,
Do not bother with Live Update. If you want to update anything, do it manually. Also for Mobo Drivers, usenVidia nForce Drivers
Take Care,
Richard
