Eepc 901 Archlinux with Kdemon and kdm Login Manager

Hello,
1.)
I have a minimal defect or cosmetic effect on the kdm login system.
When I start kdm, I get on left and on the right side of the screen a nasty bar.
Nasty Bar means it looks like a piece of the background with nasty colours.....(left side... from the top edge do the bottom egde for example)
I think the problem is that the login screen background is not in fullscreen but I haven't got any idea how I can fix this problem
I hope you can understand the problem, because English is not my mother language...
Please take a look at the image:
http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/662uhoe9/ugly.JPG
I think a picture says more than thousands words
Thank you for your help
2.) I miss the KDE start button? Is the Button not in kdemod-kdebase?

It's strange as the issue seems to be this:
E: [autospawn] core-util.c: Failed to create secure directory (/run/user/xxx/pulse): Permission denied
W: [autospawn] lock-autospawn.c: Cannot access autospawn lock.
E: [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to acquire autospawn lock
I tried adding:
autospawn = yes
to client.conf under /etc/pulse yet Pulse doesn't seem to be able to launch multiple instances?
How come that Pulse is so difficult to configure for a multiuser environment?

Problem with xcompmgr and i3 window manager

Hey guys,
Had a hard time trying to search for this problem. and nothing came up for the exact problem I was having. Anyways this is my problem. with xcompmgr is that it doesn't seem to be refreshing or something. it leaves trails of previous windows for some reason. not sure why. Anyone have this problem or someone know how to fix it??!?
Here is a link to show you what i mean.

Thanks in advance for your kind and prompt attention.
Sincerely,
Sicariuxs

Wow psychadelic!
I found xcompmgr to be rather buggy when I used to use it. Try xcompmgr-dana (dcompmgr I think) or Compton. I used to use Compton and it worked pretty well.
I stopped using real transparency in favor of pseudo-transparency because I sometimes use the tabbed mode on multiple terminals... tell me how awesome it is to read three terminals stacked on each other

Problem with openJDK and Sun Download Manager

Hi.
I try run SDM in Fedora 9 and Ubuntu 8.10 with openJDK-6-JRE but i can´t, when run sdm.sh it´s show "Using Java Look & feel" in console but no window is show.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks

Yes and works well. But I'd like to know why it does not work with openJDK. In addition Fedora only has packages for opeJDK so I was more comfortable using openJDK.
The complete output of the console is:

Problems with SpeedStep and Windows Power Management: SYSTEM FREEZES!

I am running an E6600 on my MSI 975X PUE-Mainboard @ 2,4 GHz. I am experiencing a strange problem that seems to be related to EIST and/or Windows Power Management:
As soon as I set Windows Power Management to "Presentation" or any other mode that lets Windows throttle the CPU frequency the system freezes randomly: no bluescreens, no error messages...the only option is to hit the restart button...
However, if the Windows Power Management Option is set to "Desktop" the system runs just fine!
Has anyone else experienced similar problems?
Any suggestions?

@Vaniireg
Thanks for your reply, but I cannot agree. Windows Power Management is needed in order to use Speedstep:
http://www.intel.com/cd/channel/reseller/asmo-na/eng/203838.htm
Intel clearly states that:
"An OS that supports Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology is required. Current supporting OSs include:, Microsoft Windows* XP SP2 includes native support for Enhanced Intel SpeedStep® technology."
and further:
"Finally Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology must be turned on in the OS. Currently, for Windows* XP SP2 operating systems Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology by default is off. To turn it on do the following: Under Control Panel – open Power Options Under the Power Schemes pull down menu To turn Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology ON select, “Minimal Power Management,” power scheme. To turn Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology OFF select, “Always On,” power scheme."
If I select the "Minimal Power Management" power scheme, the CPU frequency will drop to about 1,6 GHz and the Voltage (CPU-Z) to 1,136-1,144 V. Whenever I do that the system will eventuelly freeze. Skipping through a video file in Media Player Classic is sometimes enough to cause the system to hang.
If I select the "Always On" power scheme the system will run stable, no freezes will occur, but the CPU will ALWAYS run @2,4 GHz and the voltage WILL NOT be reduced to 1.14 V.
@batcook09:
Unfortunately, a clean re-install of Windows XP Pro did not take care of my problem. I've already tried that. The system is not overclocked and is running with default settings. Speedstep is enabled.
It is interesting to notice, that Dual Core Center always causes my system to freeze, even though Windows Power Management Options are set to "Always On". I read a lot of bad things about this program and that is one more reason for me to avoid using it.
Well, I have forwarded my problem to Intel and MSI Support, maybe they will come up with any solution.
Until then, further suggestions are very welcome...

Issues with CS6 and Adobe Application Manager

When trying to open an Adobe CS6 application, a crashing loop begins. The AAM opens and closes once per second in the Dock, along with the application I was attempting to open. Because of the constant open and closing of these apps, it's almost impossible to get the mouse or keyboard to focus for enough time to do a force quit on either application, and a hard reboot is usually required to break out of the cycle. I had the entire suite uninstalled and reinstalled, but several weeks later, the issue resurfaced.

There was an issue with the serialization file created.
Creating a new serilaization file via AAMEE and running it resolved the issue.
Create a serialization file via AAMEE: http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/creativesuite/pdfs/Ad obeApplicationManagerEnterpriseEditionDeploymentGuide_v_3_1.pdf
And then run it via command line.
Here are the steps:
AdobeSerialization (serialization file created using AAMEE 3.1) is not a double clickable file. You need to run it via command line to serialize the products. the command line is -
AdobeSerialization --tool=VolumeSerialize --stream --provfile=”Absolute_Path_of_prov.xml”
where
--tool=VolumeSerialize: specifies that the tool needs to process the prov.xml file to serialize.
--provfile” specifies the absolute file path to the prov.xml file,
By default, the tool looks for the prov.xml file in the same directory as the executable file and so
typically you do not need to specify this option. (Specify this option only if the prov.xml file is in some
other location.)
Make sure you invoke command prompt with Admin privileges. Return code of zero means success.
Tiffany can you please confirm the same?

Help with updating and Adobe Application Manager (Max OS X)

Hi,
I am a resent new customer of the cloud (student and teachers) service. I have started encounter some minor but kind of annoying technical problems. Before I registered for a cloud account I was running the Adobe Master Collection (trial) version on my MacBook Pro (Mac OS X 10.8.2). I successfully completed the registration to cloud and began to download and updated the app's. It went fine, until I came across a small little problem with Premier Pro. I was trying to import a few *.MOV files for a uni video that I have to do over Xmas.
Instead of spending time trying to figure out the problem I decide to uninstall and download/install all of the app on the my cloud hub, just incase it was something to so with my pervious installations. I couldn't directly re-download the apps via the cloud hub, so I had to re-download another trial version. However, now I can not get the Adobe Application Manager to work, I keep saying "Download Error, Please try again" I have tried it load of time, but keep getting the same message.
Please Help,
Damien

Moshpit84 did you utilize the uninstallers located in Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers to remove your installation of Premiere Pro? Also what version of the Adobe Application Manager are you currently using?

Trouble with iPhoto and iPhoto library manager.

I had trouble with my iPhoto constantly crashing, so I downloaded and used iPhoto Library Manager. Now when I am trying to get back to using iPhoto by re-importing my pictures, I keep getting a notification saying there is not enough space on my harddrive. I have spent a long time deleting large and unneccessary files all over my computer, but I am still unable to import my images to the iPhoto library.
Does anyone have an idea of what I can do? I am starting to get worried that I will never be able to reach my pictures again
+ I have deleted all iPhoto iPod caches or whatever they're called based on recommendation from many sites.

OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.

QT7.3 (no audio with MBox and Core Audio Manager)

Just updated to QT7.3 but it doesn't seem to be compatible with M-Box's Core Audio Manager (Pro Tools LE 7.3). I can't play audio through the M-Box. No problems with 7.2. So until my Core Audio software is upgraded, is there anyway to re-install QT7.2?

Hi desst17795,
Make sure the XP end has Tuned the app to the camera and mic.
The link is in a blog style and they need message #570 onwards. It also was written for AIM5.5 and the access to the prefereneces is now in the Buddy List menu items.
If this does not work then they should do this:
Their preview is the rear of the two tabs where they see your pic. They should click on this to bring it to the front.
There is now a small icon to the right.
Click on this.
A slider should appear.
This should be moved to the left.
If you have the Connection Doctor open (in the Video menu of iChat) you should see the framerate and bit rate go up.
At your end you should go to System Preferences > Sound > Input tab and make sure the correct mic is selected and the volume is adusted to move the response bars to at least halfway.
In iChat > Preferences > Video section > Microphone drop down you should ensure the same mic is selected and theat the response bars move when you talk.
In the Video menu bar item you should also check that the Micorphone Enabled item is ticked.
You are right that iChat to AIM 5.9 can not do Audio only chats (Unless part of a One Way video chat)

Problem with xfce and/or mouse and keyboard

Hi!
Two days ago I've turned on my laptop with Arch and the display manager Slim has frozen immediately. Later on Single-User mode I've uninstalled it. Now in normal mode when I type "startxfce4" everything is showing up, but the mouse and keyboard don't work. I know it's not frozen, because animation of mouse and CPU Frequency Monitor is on.
Strange fact is that laptop is not connecting with the Internet, so now I don't know where the problem is.
It's happening when I start xfce both from user and super user.
Just before those troubles I've updated everything with "pacman -Syu", but I haven't seen anything strange. Also the computer could have been roughly turned off (by unplugging power supply), when was turning on.
Thanks,
Gaba

Sorry for not replying, but I didn't have access to my laptop by this time.
On grub I have only normal mode and 'fallback' mode, so I have result from 'journalctl' from normal mode.
I'm sending the fragment of this file where you can see everything after I typed 'startxfce4' in console:
http://codepad.org/8pYIj8qC
I see that something is wrong, but after some attempts I don't know how to fix this ^^
Edit:
Oh, I forgot to write, that I've tried activate some drivers from 'lspci -k' (there were no "Kernel driver in use:..." in almost every device), but it didn't fi anything.

Problems with SIMPANA and RMAN

Sorry originally posted in Database General (mea culpa)
We purchased Dell Comm Vault wth Simpana MML. We have been fighting with it trying to get it installed for a couple of months. We finally got a Simpana engineer on site and we are actually able to run sbttest successfully, but when we try to use the libobk.so to make an RMAN backup to CV disk, it fails.
We have spent hours and hours on this (probably in the weeks now) wasted trying to get it working. We are 'supposed' to move our production to our new OEL/RAC environment in @ 3 weeks, BUT if we don't have backups running we miss that date.
Anyone out there using Simpana? If so, did you have problems getting it working and WHAT was the magic bullet to make it work.
Thanks
Edited by: hndba on Jan 14, 2011 1:58 PM

Already answered in the other thread ... this is not an Oracle issue and inappropriate in these forums. Please change the subject of both threads to "Please Ignore" and take this up with Dell and your own management.
Thank you.

Online banking site now shows login page as text-only; on different computer it still shows page with images and clickables -- is there a fix?

Previously when I logged in to my INGdirect online bank account, the login window came up showing images and clickable hotspots. Recently, the login window changed to a text-only version. On two different computers running Firefox, the login comes up in the previous version, with images and clickable hotspots. I'm unaware of having done anything to change my settings either in Firefox or on the banking website. Because it seems to be localized on this computer, I've tried downloading latest version of Firefox, but got no change, login still comes up in text-only format.

Try clearing your browser cache.
Tools > Clear Recent History... - hit Details and make sure only Cache is selected, then select Everything and hit the Clear Now button.

[SOLVED] Problem with "su" and "login".

Hi, I reinstalled Arch Linux today when I updated "filesystem" and reboot appeared an error with root device, but I solved with installation CD.
I restarted laptop after solving error with root device when I went to XFCE4 and open a terminal I tried to login as root with "su" and "su -" but showed this error:
bash: su: command not found
So I rebooted to start in text mode.
When loaded SLIM I press ctrl+alt+F1 to enter text mode.
I type root to login but did'nt appear to enter the pass, appeared again to enter login. I tried type my user but did the same.
Someone can help me?
Thanks!

Thank you falconindy. I upgrade with --force because I search in Google the problem show "filesystem" when I tried install and I read that solution is upgrade "filesystem" with --foce.
I tried to reinstall util-linux and now works. Thank you!

HT2589 I have an Apple ID which I had registered years back. I wanted to use the same Apple ID to download apps - but whenever I try to login with that Apple ID, it tells me " "This ID hasn't been used with Itunes", and proceeds to let me "Review" it.

I have an Apple ID which I had registered years back.I wanted to use the same Apple ID to download apps on my ipod touch - but whenever I try to login with that Apple ID, it tells me "This ID hasn't been used with Itunes", and proceeds to let me "Review" it. In the last step, I'm asked to furnish credit card information, which I don't want to, since all I want to do is to be able to download free apps !!

Could the credit card be expired?
Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

Login ID best practice. Windows 8, Office 365 with SkyDrive and SkyDrive PRO

I have had many confusing issues with multiple and conflicting ID's. I have just spent 3 hours online with MS technical support to discover that a document can be edited in Word and saved to Sharepoint365 but if it is synched with the
desktop and that one is edited then the local signon sets the wrong permissions and the upload centre fails.
I have two MSOL Office/365 accounts, both Enterprise level with SkyDrive Pro.
I have two Live accounts, both with SkyDrive.
I am using Windows 8 so need to signon with a live ID or local and non-linked account.
Assuming I configured;
1. W8 user account with Live ID AAA and only used MSOL/365 Account BBB in a session.
2. W8 user account with Live ID ZZZ and only used MSOL/365 Account XXX in a session.
Would that be okay?
1. Should I be able to access AAA Skydrive and BBB SkyDrive Pro in the same session?
2. If I synch SharePoint folders from a BBB session should I be able to edit them directly in word, with user account BBB active and be able to save okay?
Cheers, Richard
RC

In Windows Live you could create alias account which means you have one Windows Live Account but login with multiple email. You create one account and then link Office365 account as alias to it. You could have one Windows 8 account and different Office365
account too.
You could also configure your Office365 account to use your Windows Live Id and login with that account.
