Different font when I start with startx instead of gdm

Things affected:
Terminal
Chromium URL/Tabs
i3 workspace numbers
What do I need to put on xinitrc to have the same font. Also how do I know which font gdm is loading?

Artists in iTunes Library starts with Z instead of A

Hi guys,
My iTunes library's artists starts with Z, instead of being in alphabetical order. It didn't use to be like this. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

Try clicking on the toolbar at the top of the artist column (on the word "artist"). When I do this on my MacBook it changes back and forth between starting from A and starting from Z. You should also see a little arrow next to the word "artist" that points up and down when you press the toolbar button. "Up" means starting from the top, and down means starting from the bottom.

GNOME doesn't work correctly with startx only by GDM

This is driving me nuts, I'm having a bunch of problems because I'm starting my GNOME session using startx instead of GDM and this bugs me a lot because I prefer startx most of the times...
1) One of the problems is that the sound does not work with startx. Starting through GDM, the sound is ok. What's even more frustrating is that sometimes, it doesn't even work through GDM
2) I can't unlock anything in the "System » Administration" menu. All of the "unlock" buttons are grayed out and I can't click them. But it works on GDM. However, whatever setting I change (after unlocking) is not saved...

tandycorp wrote:But since your settings cannot be saved correctly you should first try to correct that problem, then the audio problem should be easy to resolve. In my case the settings are saved correctly (I first installed gdm then completely deleted it). You may want to look to the hal wiki and add your user in /etc/d-bus/system.d/hal.conf. It looks like a session problem.
I've read the wiki but I don't know what should I do to the hal.conf everything seems "normal" to me...
EDIT:
I don't know what I've done (changed lots of things lately and configuration files) but the sound seems to be working now... Not every time, but most of the time, it seems so. I have enabled the button sound (when you click a button) temporarily to see if the sound keeps working for the time being...
Also, the unlock button now is enabled and here's a thing I found about the settings not being saved. I open "Administration » Services", for instance, and click "unlock", input password, enable GDM, which was disabled of course and click "close". I open "Administration » Services" again and with everything disabled, I see that GDM is not checked, still, I click "unlock" again, the services list is unlocked and GDM is still unchecked. But, if I look inside /etc/rc.conf, I can see the gdm daemon was added to the list... If I reboot the computer, GDM will start automatically and if once again I go to "Administration » Services", now I see GDM checked. If I try to uncheck it, it will work, but I will only see the unchecked value in the "Services" window after another reboot. Is this normal?

HWS file error when not starting with Ch 0

Hello,
I used the "niScope EX Save to File - HWS Low Level - Single Channel Stream.vi" as my starting point and added 8 channels for a 5105 card. Although this is a complex Queue-based vi, it works fine as long as my RAID is fast enough.
However, we have need to take data from channels 4 to 7 and not start with Ch 0. When I do this, my LabVIEW HWS reader does not see any data, nor does the MATLAB code I have written to read our HWS files.
Looking at the file in HDFView, I see that the data starts in vector0 and not vector1, as when I record Channels 0 to 3.
Perhaps I need to use the HDF5 LabVIEW code to force the writing to a different location in the HDF file?
Thanks for your help.

Hello,
I was out of the office Mon. and Tues. I took out a section that just collects one 5105 card in a steaming, continuous collect mode. This is part of a much bigger VI and I included the “Helper Aps” folder that has all the sub-VIs for that larger app. There are more sub-VIs than you need for “5105 Cont Collect.vi”, but it should run once you tell it where the sub-VIs are. Included is a quick-look reader I use to look at the data.
The data file Ch_0_to_3_5105-0.hws can be read, but the Ch_4_to_7_5105-0.hws file cannot.
Thank you for your help.

How to create a DN that starts with cn instead of uid

I installed the new version of the directory server 5.0 and converted all dn's. All my DN's starts with the cn, but we I now enter new entries using the iPlanet console they all start with uid again. How can I configure the console so that when I enter a new entry, his dn starts with the cn instead of with the dn.
THX

I had the same problem. To fix it, I performed the following steps:
* Open the Directory Server
* Select the Directory tab
* Select NetscapeRoot
* Select the domain
* Select Global Preferences
* Select Common from the right-hand panel
* Change nsuniqueattribute and nsuserrdncomponent from uid to cn
* Save the changes
* Logout of Console
* Re-start the Directory Server and the Administration Server
This worked for me.
As a note, when you look at the Advanced properties before you complete adding the user, uid will still be shown as the RDN. Ignore this. After you complete adding the user, view the Advanced properties again. The RDN will use cn.
Hope this helps.

I get different result when I paste with mouse and shift+ins

Sometimes I get different result when I paste the clipboard content with mouse and shift+insert key combination. Why? What can I do to stop this annoyance?

Just to add a little to the above, there really is no universally applied standard (not even close) for how the primary, secondary, and clipboard buffers should be used. Any X program can use them however they wish. But there are some common patterns: selected text should be placed in the primary buffer, and X pastes from the primary buffer with either middle click or shift-ins by default.
This default can (and unfortunately often is) overriden by clipboard managers - I don't know why they don't stay true to their name and just manage the clipboard buffer, but they often don't.
<mini rant>with no clipboard tools installed, selected text in any program I have is in the primary selection, and shift+ins or middle click paste from this primary selection. Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V post to/from the clipboard buffer. No need for extra tools. If I install any clipboard manager, this default sanity of X11 goes strait to s(&*Y. I don't like clipboard managers </mini rant> <mini praise> X11 is great without any of that cruft added </mini praise>

I import a document and it is in a different font when I look at it in pages

I import a document into Pages and when I view it in pages it is a MUCH different font.
WHat can I do to correct this?

One possibility is that the font from the imported document is not available in the iCloud version. Therefore another font is being substituted. You could either change the font in the source document or in the iCloud version.

Oracle Text does not return results when String starts with two consecutive vowels

Hi,
I hope someone can shed some light on a strange problem we're facing.
Oracle Database 11g R2 (11.2.0.4) EE 64-bit running on Windows 2008 Server R2.
When I create a context index on a varchar2 column (surname) it works fine when the surname starts with either a consonant or one vowel. But when the surname starts with two vowels it fails to return the record?
Please see worked example below:
create table t1 (surname varchar2(50));
insert into t1 values ('OURS');
insert into t1 values ('JOURS');
insert into t1 values ('ONES');
commit;
-- sync every 10 mins
CREATE INDEX PERSON_SURNAME_IDX ON t1
(SURNAME)
INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT
PARAMETERS('MEMORY 50M sync (every "SYSDATE+10/1440")')
NOPARALLEL;
-- no rows
SELECT surname
FROM t1
WHERE CONTAINS(surname, 'OURS') > 0;
-- 1 row
SELECT surname
FROM t1
WHERE CONTAINS(surname, 'JOURS') > 0;
-- 1 row
SELECT surname
FROM t1
WHERE CONTAINS(surname, 'ONES') > 0;
Any help or guidance greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Auto-fill in email address hangs up when i start with letter 'a'

No problem with other letters.... tried all the solutions on CNET blog (re-imported address book, got rid of previous recipients list, made some library changes, etc.), all very carefully... but when i type the letter 'a' (as a first letter) the system acts like it is cataloguing or searching, BUT this does not happen on any other letter. AND it happens even if it is a second or third name in the address line that starts with 'a'. What could this be? Something corrupt in the import of old addressed from my old macbook to my new one? many thanks.

I'm having the same issue. I have an old email address I want to delete from the "previously sent email cache" and not sure how to do it, or if it's even possible.
You can clear Safari's cache on iPhone but not Mail.app's it seems. (you can in OS X though)
There should be a clear cache option in Prefs, no?
Maybe on the next update?
I'm sure it's pretty low on the list for Apple.

SM30 blanks field contents when input starts with exclamation point

I found one thread about this, but it didn't seem to help - so I'm asking again I have a table that can be maintained with SM30. One particular row for one particular column needs a value that starts with an exclamation point
The original article said that the exclamation point is a special character and they described an input process which didn't work in my case. One thing I will say is that the change in this is recent in that it used to just happen in our production system but not test or development. We just did a database copy and now the issue is in our QA system.
So how does one put in a value into any field that starts with an exclamation point using SM30? Using an ABAP program is not an option as this table is designed to be maintained via SM30. It is possible we can request a value change, but I'd rather not go through that hassle. The field cannot contain any leading blanks either so that is not an option - the field has to contain the exact value that is needed. I suspect that in the original article the person ended up with leading blanks in their data and they didn't notice it since it was just one leading blank ( they were trying to store a single ! in the field ).

Hello Bruce,
This is not restricted to SM30 only. It applies to all the screen elements.
Actually '!' is a reset character which will reset the value of the screen element (read this [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/d1/801c54454211d189710000e8322d00/content.htm]).
I tried turning this attribute off for the SM30 screen, but no use. It wont allow you to save the data
Looks like you have to ask to change the data or use the technique you had found in the thread.
BR,
Suhas
PS: You cannot turn off this attribute for a key field though.

Library not loaded when osx start with single mode

Description:
Product:Mac mini

step1. For app software testing,the follow files was moved from /usr/lib to / .
libcrypto0.9.7.dylb
libcrypto0.9.8.dylb

step2.restart os
Problem appear: the gray screen appear a long time with apple icon
step3.then, i restart machine to single mode by command+s
The note appear:

step4. i guess that problem would be fix when i recovery the files of above. then i log in recovery mode(hold Option before gray screen appear)
#use terminal ,copy file to its old position.
-bash-3.2# cp /Volumes/mac/libcrypto.0.9.8.dylib /Volumes/mac/usr/lib
#have not note found ,the command sentence is done! maybe its success!
restart to verify,work!
Hope this post could help someone! that's only .

If you specify the (absolute) path then the profiles.ini file isn't used and installation scopes might be different.

Wrong File(parent, child) behaviour on Windows when child starts with one s

I've sent following problem report:
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
On Windows when relative path starts from one slash it should be resolved from current disk (not current directory). This behaviour should be preserved for Files constructed with constructor File(parent, child). So results of run "System.out.println(new File(dir, relPath).getAbsolutePath())" and "System.out.println(new File(relPath).getAbsolutePath())" should be identical when running program from directory "dir".
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Compile and run from directory C:\temp\relpath following code:
import java.io.*;
public class Main {
     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
          System.out.println(new File("C:\\temp\\relpath", "\\temp\\relpath\\Main.java").getAbsolutePath());
          System.out.println(new File("\\temp\\relpath\\Main.java").getAbsolutePath());
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
C:\temp\relpath>java Main
C:\temp\relpath\\Main.java
C:\temp\relpath\Main.java
ACTUAL -
C:\temp\relpath>java Main
C:\temp\relpath\temp\relpath\Main.java
C:\temp\relpath\Main.java
The answer was:
I have been analyzing your problem and it is not a bug but the intended behavior of the API.
The File(File,String) constructor includes this in the specification:
"If the |child| pathname string is absolute then it is converted into a relative pathname in a system-dependent way."
In the example provided here, the child path is absolute so it is converted into a relative path. This is the intended behavior.
My comments:
First, child pathname is not absolute. Even so, I don't understand why this guy contend that this behavior is correct.
Please comment this!

Maps app crash when searching starts with a 'k'

When I do a search in the maps app. that begins with the letter k, (I was looking to see where kuwait was), the app crashes. I was wondering if anybody else has this problem and how I could fix it.
Message was edited by: Andycov

The problem doesn't occur on my system, so I doubt it's a bug in the Maps app, anyway. Have you tried restarting your iPad? (Hold down the power button until you get the red "slide to power off", do so, and then press the power button again to start the iPad back up.)
Hope that helps.

Strange font when printing pdf with Reader X

Hello,
Who can help? I recently upgraded from Adobe Acrobat Reader 9 to Adobe Reader X. Since then, a strange problem occurs. When printing a pdf files to a printer, the font is changed. When viewing the file on the screen and printing them with version 9, everything is OK. The Arial font appears as it should. But when printing, a very ugly font type appears. The pdf files I use contain only a 'standard' Arial and Myriad Web font.This problem is very annoying.
Can somebody help? I use version 10.0.1

If you go the attached web page:
http://www.adobe.com/support/reader/
(http://www.adobe.com/support/reader/) , you
will see "download an older version" underneath
the Download Adobe reader.
If you click in this link (download an older version), you
can pick from version 8 and 9.
Since erasing version 10 and downloading version 9.4,
my problem has gone away completely.
As with you, I consider this a major problem. It certainly added
a lot of grief to my life when I could not trust my printer
output at all.
Hope this helps.
