Current situation for 945GM and below users -- downgrade only option?

I'm running ArchLinux on an Acer 5610-4610(Intel 945GM, 950GMA), and I've almost(...*almost*) gotten used to seeing mesa, xorg-server, and such being on the pacman ignore notification when I update(I can't use the latest xf86-video-intel and therefore the latest dependencies an utterly handicapping reduction in performance), and this recent fiasco I've had with the transition to hotplugging makes matters even worse.
Staying with downgraded xorg-server means ignoring evdev and such upgrades, I would imagine, so my question is this: is my only option until kernel-2.6.29 is released(a month 1/2 from now?) to keep this growing number of packages downgraded to retain usability on ArchLinux?

Could you elaborate on your problems? Why you can't use the latest Intel drivers? Do they have a bug that prevents you from using them? Is the bug an upstream one or Arch specific? Arch is not even using the latest, but the 2.4.x series.
And you say that staying with the old packages is utterly handicapping performance for you? You mean that if you do upgrade your packages you get much better performance but also some showstopper bug?
I have two desktops with an Intel IGP and don't have any problems. One has the latest G45 chipset and the other an old 845G one. Also a laptop with GM965 has no problems, but that one's running Ubuntu, not Arch.

  • How do we reset password for SAP* and DDIC user in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0?

    Hi,
    How do we reset password for SAP* and DDIC user in SAP R/3 ECC 6.0?
    I tried with acual method as below from client '000':
    DELETE FROM USR02 CLIENT SPECIIED WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*' AND MANDT = '001'.
    After this when I tried to logon '001' using SAP* with password PASS it is giving  the message that Incorrect logon and password.
    (Also when I checked for 'SAP*' in 001 it looks like it is not got created as I queried as below:
    SELECT SINGLE * FROM USR02 CLIENT SPECIFIED WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*' AND MANDT = '001'.)
    Can anybody throw some light on this? RewardS is guranteed for solutions!
    -B S B

    Hi again:
    I forget to tell.
    You must restart the system. So, that a new user with the name "sap*" gets generated with password "pass"
    Hope this wil help,

  • My ringer is no longer working for text and email notifications. Only working for phone calls. I have gone through all the settings to see where something is off. Not finding anything. I have tried changing the tone and it just vibrates on everything.

    My ringer is no longer working for text and email notifications. Only working for phone calls. I have gone through all the settings to see where something is off. Not finding anything. I have tried changing the tone and it just vibrates on everything.

    Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

  • I'm using GarageBand for voiceover and my voice is only recording in one track. How do I get it in stereo?

    I'm using a Bluebird mic hooked up to speakers and MAudio Fast Track interface.  I went to GarageBand preferences and set up the recording for MAudio and stereo but it's still recording in mono.  Any suggestions?

  • Hack for IE6 and below needed

    Hi,
    my website is http://mysafety.be and although the site displays perfect in Firefox and IE7 and IE8, there is a problem with the display in IE6. The layout has a header, a left column (for a flyout menu) and a main content body to the right of the left column.
    The pages are deisgned with fluid design; I use some specific rules for IE7 and IE6 to get the dropdown and flyout menus work. The dropdownmenu is formatted "menu" and the flyout menu is formatted "menu1". The dropdown and flyout menus have each specific rules for IE6.
    What happens in IE6 is that the main content body drops to below the left column.
    Following style rules are applied:
    1. the main body style:
    width: 90%
    margin right: 5%
    margin left: 5%
    max-width: 1200px
    min-width: 900px
    2. the left column (menu1) style:
    float: left
    height: 920px
    width: 200px
    3. the main content style:
    height: 900px
    overflow: auto
    padding: 10px
    4. in the main body style (main.css) I also have following specific IE hacks:
    * html #body {margin-top:0px}
    *:first-child+html {margin-top:27px}
    5. the IE6 only style for the left menu specifies no dimensions other then this:
    display: block
    left: 105px
    position: absolute
    top: 0
    width: 105px
    There are no IE6 only stylings for the main content, which is why I am puzzled that in IE6 the main content drops below the left column.
    Any clues please?
    Thank you!
    Erik

    yes, it is fixed; sorry I did not give an update yet. I will now.
    I discovered several things wrong.
    1. I used a styling for the flyout menu that was not correct; this is the page I got my flyout from: http://www.cssplay.co.uk/menus/flyout_4level.html and I discovered that I used two stylings (one regular, and one for IE), while the styling included with this menu had the IE instructions included. Conflicts.
    2. I found another error in the positioning of the picture below the ol in the page; IE would read the styling in such a way that the "maincontent" was wider then allowed.
    3. I had two hack lines that assigned values for IE7 on one line, and on the other values for IE6, this last one was incorrect.
    So, solved now. Thanks for the follow up, Murray.
    Kind regards,
    Erik

  • Programs "quit unexpectedly" for third and fourth user accounts

  • HELP! Converting fonts for preflight and end user review

    I want to make sure the fonts are either embedded or linked to the doc so the end user can review my file. Once it is ready for print, what are the steps to make it print friendly?

    If the client needs to edit the file, you need to send the original InDesign file. You can use the Package command in the file menu to gather all of the fonts (other than CJK or restricted fonts -- you'll see the warning) and images required for printing into folders along with the document. This does not alter the licensing requirements, though, that the other user must have their own license for each of those fonts to install them (which is why PDF is a much better solution in General as most fonts worth using allow embedding for viewing and printing in a PDF), as well as a copy of InDesign.

  • Analyzer rounds down for 5 and below (inclusive)?

    We have found that Analyzer (we are using 6.2) rounds DOWN for decimal values of 5 and below instead of rounding UP for values of 5 and above.Has anyone else experienced this behavior?This is a different convention than what we've come across in the past. Any idea what (if any) the rationale behind it is?Our QA department is calling it a defect since, to them, it acts like a truncate instead of a round when the decimal position has a value of 5.Thanks,Jennifer Hassler

    I have called Hyperion Support. They informed me this is a known bug with v.6.2 of Analyzer. Proposeed solution is to upgrade to v.6.5 of Analyzer.

    Hi Christow!
    You mention that you are having problems connecting to your windows friends. I assume you are able to connect with mac users with no problem. Here's is a nice overview to have your windows friends review so you can connect with them: http://www.mvldesign.com/videoconferencetutorial.html
    As far as MSN for the mac, it doesn't support video at this time, you may want to consider using aMSN which can be found at: http://amsn.sourceforge.net/

  • How to block file transfer and desktop sharing in Lync 2010 for Fedrated and Guest Users

     
    Dear,
    Can anybody guide me how to restrict desktop sharing and file transfer for federated and Anonymous logins in Lync 2010.
    I have tried to apply this policy through “Conferencing Policy”, but this gets applied to all users including corporate users.
    Please help in this.

    Hi,
    As my knowledge, the CsFileTransferFilterConfiguration and setting in confercing policy are used to block transfer file between users. So if the policy is applied to user, the user would not transfer file with anybody. Since all Federation and Guest
    Users access thought the Access Edge service, here is a update that helps to enable the control of the file transfer through the Access Edge service.
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2621840
    The update helps to define the file transfer policy between users on the local area network and users that connect through the Access Edge server in a Microsoft Lync Server 2010 environment. It helps protect Microsoft Lync Server 2010 deployment against
    the spread of the most common forms of viruses with minimal degradation to the user experience.

  • I have an Apple16 GB with BT Yahoo home pad that had a small box to let me go to mail and another for  weather and below them I had my local weather in box,somehow I have erased them and don't know how to get the back ,not very good with computers.

    I have an Apple16GB with BT Yahoo home page which had a box for mail and weather and further down I had my local weather, I have touched something and lost these boxes and my home page has changed  and I would like to get it back as it was. I have to admit to being useless at computers although I love my I Pad. 

    Is this the website that you are looking for? According to the very little bit of research that I did on this before responding to you, there have been changes made to the website and to the way that works ...if I read everything correctly.
    http://home.bt.com/
    Did you have a shortcut to the website on your iPad home screen? If that is what you want to create again, navigate to that website in Safari and then tap the arrow icon next to the address/URL field at the top of the Safari toolbar. Form the window that will pop up, select - Add to Home Screen. That will put an icon on your home screen that will allow you to open directly to that page in Safari when you tap on it.

  • SSPR Asterix (*) Secret Answers and Allow Users to Pick Optional Questions

    Hi,
    Is it possible to asterix out (***) answers to FIM SSPR Registration questions as they're typed?
    Also, is it possible to present the user with a single gate of 8 questions but force the users to only have to answer 3 questions on a single registration screen? I don't want to force the user to jump through multiple gates or screens.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Yes, It is feasible to give user choice to answer limited number of questions. Please find a scenario for example below:
    1) You can configure FIM QA gate to have suppose 40 default questions.
    2) Now, You can configure to let user see only 20  or any number of questions of them.
    3) Now, Out of these 20 questions you can give user a choice to answer any 10 questions or any number of questions.
    4) Now, In addition you can configure QA gate to let user see only random 5 or any no. of questions during Password reset.
    5) And you can also give user choice to answer 2 questions or any no. of questions.
    I hope this will help you.
