  • Orginally to Arch dev but to Newbs too.

    Heya all Archlinux users.
    About me:
    First I want to let you know that I registered on the forums 2006-10-23.
    Still this is my first post.
    I run around 20 Oracle related servers all on solaris, mostly on the new T1 and T2  processors running LDOM
    (Logical Domains).
    I have been using Arch-linux since before I registered (on the forums) on my workstation at work and main home
    computer and server at home. (have a laptop on archlinux due to work too.)
    I worked as an Windows IT Administrator for at least 12 years before I finally decided to quit "that" hell on earth
    and go the "linux way".
    I do run couple of M$ servers today but they are only financials based (M$sql) and one for "Securitas" reasons.
    For newcomers: "The Hard TASK" , getting into linux.
    When I started my migration to the "linux world" I went the way everyone did. The most recomended,
    most used, and the most pre-worked distros but I soon found out that most of it was amiss, or should I say "incomplete".
    Getting your setup from a CD dosen't make it perfect.
    But dont give up! Windows is that way to.
    The distros I tried:
    Slackware, Mandrake, Red Hat, Fedora 1-4 and then Gentoo (which I gave up on because of no knowledge)
    After compiling Gentoo for days I gave up.
    My next up was Ubuntu, which had the hype at the time.
    After stuggling with the configuring and occational conflicts, I gave up.
    My last resort was google.com.
    I am not totally sure what I did lookup but I recon it was something like, "Linux, Rolling release, simple, fast".
    Thats where I found Arch linux.
    Today its somewhere up-top. If  you look that up on google that is.
    So why am I still here:
    Because I love "The Arch Way"!
    Newcomers:
    Dont be scared, look up the wiki. Its the best there is in the linux world.
    Set up your computer and learn linux while your at it.
    The Archlinux Team know what they are doing but we have to understand they have theyr hands full.
    The reason I started this post orginally was not to write anything stupid noob stuff like I already did.
    But only wanted to say thanks.
    Thanks to the Arch-Devs, support on forums and Wiki team.
    The team that makes us a community..

    I recognize I was scared at first. This is because I thought I could erase the window$ on my PC and couldn't do other thing, but I just tried some virtual machines on window$ and thought it was the time; then used the core CD, but fail because of grub-issues, then gave a try to isolinux's thanks to a recommendation and it worked, spent some days getting it to work, and currently I'm happy booting to it as my normal desktop

  • A thank you to all Archlinux maintainers and contributors

    Hi people,
    I received a newer model laptop at work and decided to install Linux on it, since it came preinstalled with some newb OS (win something or other). I'm already a bit of a veteran with linux, and my favorite distribution has always been slackware. I have been following other distros though (like Ubuntu) but found them relatively untweakable. A while back (while still in release 0.5 or so) I read about Archlinux, and since it was a relatively slow day at work, I decided to try something completely new and decided upon Archlinux.
    So far, I'm extremely happy with this choice. Some unexpected things happened (which is to be expected of course), like having to manually install openssh which was a bit of a surprise, but so far I've been able to get almost everything working with the help of the Wiki: X, KDE, touchpad, wifi with several network profiles (+ killswitch), vmware player, firefox + all the usual plugins, PPtP connection to work etc etc. and now everything 'just works'.
    So here's a thank you to all the people involved in creating and contributing to the distro and it's knowledge base!
    Kind regards,
    Arnoud.

    I'm not smart enough to program, or to be a developer, but I have contributed monetarily to Arch, and have put a lot of work into the Beginner's Guide and wiki.
    I too am very thankful to the devs and community, and to be part of this excellent distro, by participating as much as I can.

  • In all Systems( DEV , qualituy and Production ) Application data is same?

    Hi SDN team , need clarification from experts.
    Thanks alot for giving me advise to resolve my issues. .Need another clarification also from experts.
    SAP_EXPA(SAP_ALL with cross-client customizing) , can be selected if I  want to transport to  a New system( no clients available) ..Am I right?
    1) using SAP_ALL , i think user'data and roles alos will be copied ..Am I right?
    2) Document says SAP_CUST (Client-specific customizing including authorization profile is copied. The application data is deleted, the user data is retained.)
    here I have a question like
    a) what authorization profile will be copied , is it user specific?
    b) What exactly the  meaning of "Application Data is deleted " I hope in all Systems( DEV , qualituy and Production ) there is same Application data maintained. Pls correct me if I am wrong.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    Rajani

    Hi Rajani,
    Below are the answers to your queries:
    1) SAP_EXPA(SAP_ALL with cross-client customizing) , can be selected if I want to transport to a New system( no clients available) ..Am I right? 
    Ans YES (infact it has to be a new system only otherwise Client-independent data and thus all clients in the target system are affected by this and can be destroyed! )
    2) using SAP_ALL , i think user'data and roles alos will be copied ..Am I right?
    Ans YES
    3) Document says SAP_CUST (Client-specific customizing including authorization profile is copied. The application data is deleted, the user data is retained.
    here I have a question like
    a) what authorization profile will be copied , is it user specific?
    Ans YES ( User Master Reacords are deleted)
    b) What exactly the meaning of "Application Data is deleted " I hope in all Systems( DEV , qualituy and Production ) there is same Application data maintained. Pls correct me if I am wrong.
    ANS:
    Application data is dependent upon Customizing data. Therefore, the data can only exist consistently together with it. Application data is always deleted in target clients, with the exception of a copy with SAP_USR or SAP_USER.
    Hope this is useful
    Regards

  • Help! My computer is giving me all sorts of errors now!

    Please help me someone, my computer is giving me all sorts of errors now and I dunno what happened. The only thing I can think of is that I went to a bad site or made a bad download possibly. I'm not exactly sure what went wrong or how...all I know is that I'm getting tons of directx errors and a few other errors. I tried reinstalling the latest directx but when I do the webinstaller for it, it then pops up with this message:
    " a cabinet file cannot be trusted, please verify the cryptographic services are enabled and the cabinet certificate file is valid "  - whatever the heck this error means????
    I'm also getting a runtime error 9000 and also somehow my openGL got downgraded from the latest to only 1.1. I reinstalled the graphics display driver but am uncertain as to if it's fixed that or not. I presume this was happening because my display driver kept crashing occasionally at random times every so often? It always recovered itself so I didn't really think it was a problem but maybe it caused all this? There's a few other errors i've gotten but I don't remember those but they haven't showed up at all for now since I reinstalled the graphics driver so i'm hoping that's fixed.
    What' i'm wondering though is if I should just do a system format to refresh and clean install everything back onto my computer again to restore everything to where it was similar to being new when I first bought it to fix this issue...problem is I made a system recovery disc but then it asks me for the toshiba media recovery disk and kicks my disc out when i boot from that asking for the media disk but I dunno how to create that or if I even have the right disc made to restore windows 7 since I looked on the disk and i noticed like only 3 files and 2 folders for booting so how the heck is that going to restore win 7 again onto your computer????? And the media disc for windows 7 I still can't figure out how to make either! Where do I find the information to fix these issues or even just do a reformat and reinstallation of everything onto my laptop?
    PLEASE HELP ME SOMEONE!
    - I need my computer to be in working order - I need help asap because I work on websites on my computer on the internet! Thanks in advance!

  • No password in dev mode please

    Hello All,
    Why does the WLS console ask for password (I tried to make IE remember the password
    but that also did not work).
    I am working in the development environment where the re-starting of the app server
    is common. now i have to enter the password for admin everytime.
    Is there some way to disable it?
    In production mode the console password definetly makes sense but not in developement
    mode.
    regards,
    Abhishek.

    For now you can simply disable authentication in console.war/WEB-INF/web.xml

  • VoIP and Network Gear for Sale - practically giving it all away

    Hello SVCUG,
    Some time back I tried to interest the folks here at SVCUG in this equipment and seems there wasn't much interest at the time. Thought I'd offer these items once again.
    If you're someone who is looking to build up a general purpose VoIP Lab, I have some great gear that I need to clear out of my storage. I am practically giving it all away at this price. Includes PoE switch, Cisco Term Server, lots of phones, and much more.
    I don't have time to sell this stuff individually, so it's a all or nothing deal.
    If interested, best way to reach me is through the Craigslist below where I provide my text number as well as the Craigslist RelayMail email address where you can reach me.
    Thanks for taking time to review this post.
    Best Regards,
    Chris

  • Happy New Year To All!... :D

    Happy New Year To All!.. :D Apple Bring a New Beautiful Products.. We Hope that Apple Launch new Amazing and Thinner Product.. :D

    babowa wrote:
    So you have a problem with people wishing other people a happy New Year?
    However, claiming this thread includes speculation and rumors about Apple policies is absurd.
    If you'd like, I will report you and your concern to the hosts.
    Babowa-
    No, I like people wishing other people a happy new year, and I wish you one too. 
    My posting here was NOT really a complaint about the original post.  It was an experiment.  I am new here and I have had a couple of posts removed on the grounds they did not conform to the site's policies.  So I am trying to understand better how the process works, hence this little "test".  I was looking for a post that did NOT say something negative about Apple but that DID violate at least a strict reading of the rules about acceptable posts.  No, I am not a lawyer, but legal thinking fascinates me.  The Happy New Year post met these criteria.
    Several users have posted to this forum that Apple removes posts that seem to be critical of Apple, regardless of whether they violate the "stated" rules. If these allegations are true,  human judgment would be needed in order to implement Apple's policy and it is not obvious how that judgment is being applied.  I am curious. Does a user "report to the hosts" if he or she is offended by a post?  Does Apple have a computer program that screens for key words?  Does Apple have employees who try to read as many posts as possible?
    By way of background and to explain further my motivation, my deleted posts I thought were constructive and consistent with the stated "terms of use".  It could be taken as critical of Apple, however.  So I browsed the forum in search of something that was NOT critical of Apple but that I thought was even less consistent with the stated terms of use than my deleted post. Clearly, this "Happy New Year" post is not a technical question. It was written by a non-native English speaker who may or may not have been drinking in celebration.   It is not offensve, but it is "clutter."  Also, "Avoid Speculation and Rumor" is a standard that can be interpreted both very narrowly or very broadly. Apple could use that standard to justify deleting almost any post that included a statment about what Apple might do in the future, and so I mentioned that too.
    The hypothesis in my little experiment (thanks for playing) is that Apple will NOT delete the "Happy New Year" post even though it could be categorized as inconsistent with the rules.  If so, then the theory that Apple has an "unwritten" rule of deleting posts on this forum that are critical of Apple would be strenghened.  Of course, Apple could view this post as being "not constructive" and delete it while leaving the "Happy New Year" post  I may have just defeated the purpose of my experiment by answering your question as frankly as I have.
    My current thinking is that I should not waste time expressing opinions here or engaging in "community-building" posts here.  This forum seems to be a brilliant innovation by Apple to get its customers to do the "support work" for it while also enforcing the same strict standards it imposes on its own workforce.  I've posted too much.  I hope I have not offended. "Like" if you like.

Help please I can't save any documents now! Thanks in advance all, it is truly appreciated. how can find the hidden temporary files using the terminal what do i type in?

    It's more likely a failed Erase Free Space, which creates a huge temporary file; that's why it looks like you have no more available drive space. You can recover from this. See these links

  • Problems with upgrading my iphone to v6 - I am not happy!  It deleted all of my apps, so I had to reload them.  Now many of the apps do not work - they keep asking for my apple ID and PW but then never open.

    I kept getting reminders to update my iphone to v6, so I did so and I am not happy!  It deleted all of my apps, so then I had to reload them.  Now many of the apps do not work - when I try to open them they keep asking for my apple ID and PW and when I enter this it just goes away and never opens.  Anyone else had this issue?

    Happened to me once awhile back. The exact same thing. What I did to get everything working again was open up itunes on PC and click on "Apps" section (not the one in your iphone section, but the one in the "Libraries" section near the top). Then proceed to totally delete all of the apps that aren't working (if it asks if you want to send to recycle bin click yes). Re-sync phone, which will remove them from the phone. And, finally, re-install them. It was a pain, but the only thing that worked. Hope it works for you. Good luck!

  • Video exposure not working in all 3 video modes new iphone 6 Plus ios 8.1

    Bug 1.  In video mode, exposure does not automatically brighten in darkly lit areas - then when you touch the screen to focus and try and use the sun slider for upping or lowering the exposure, you have to swipe it many, many times to go a short distance, then IT ONLY WORKS TO DARKEN THE EXPOSURE, IT DOES NOT LIGHTEN IT IN ALL 3 VIDEO MODES. It works fine in Photo mode.  Go to this video at :54 to see it working properly:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tehcNa3ecs4#t=75
    Bug 2:  Slo-Motion videos will play back on computers in slow motion ONLY if the base frame rate is set to 60 fps and the Slo-mo speed is set to 240fps.  With any other settings the computer (both win and mac) play the video back at full speed.
    Especially with bug 1, can any of you check your phone to see if sliding your finger up will brighten the image while in any of the 3 video modes?

    Hi,
    I'm having also having game sound issues the game music and sounds just go completely quiet in iOS 8.1. Sometimes it'll just be completely quiet and others I'll have game music and sounds and partway through the game I'll lose audio. It's not the side lock/mute button either which I checked.
    It's happening in two different games: Shadowgun:Deadzone and Modern Combat 5.
    I have that side button above the volume set to toggle mute and I tried changing it to lock rotation instead to see if that made a difference which it did not. I have to kill the game and relaunch it to get the game audio working again.

    Given that it's only 3 months old and was brand new, you are covered by warranty. You need to take it to whoever you bought it from as they are the servicer of your warranty.

  • Get Business days ONLY excluding Thanks giving / Christmas etc

    I know how to exclude Saturday and Sunday to get weekdays only but how to get business days only excluding thanks giving/ Christmas/memorial day etc (based on the locale or some other setting) ?
    (If it is country- INDIA - the list of official government holidays changes, so the query should work properly depending on the country or some other setting.)

    Hello userPrasad.
    Business or working days can not only be affected regionally but also by the nature of the industry that the system is used for; not to mention that change can occur. The few systems that I've worked with have typically provided a user-maintained listing of dates to be considered as business/working days. Obviously, this would contain more data than the system and your coding would actually require, but this is normally the most straightforward presentation to the business user.
    Make it simple
    Make it obvious
    Make it usable
    Make it flexible
    Some food for thought,
    Luke

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse
