Hdaps module carried by kernel26 package never work

Hi, I'm running Arch on thinkpad T400. I found that hdaps.ko module carried by kernel26 package seems never work, I'm currently using tp_smapi package from AUR, it provides hdaps.ko module along with tp_smapi.ko and works flawlessly. I'm wondering why we cannot put the right working module into kernel26 package instead of the useless one?
The tp_smapi package install tp_smapi.ko and hdaps.ko into /lib/modules/2.6.28-ARCH/extra/, while the default hdaps.ko locates at /lib/modules/2.6.28-ARCH/kernel/drivers/hwmon/. The frustrating point is every time I upgrade kernel26 package, I need to manually remove /lib/modules/2.6.28-ARCH/kernel/drivers/hwmon/hdaps.ko and reinstall tp_smapi-0.40-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz so that kernel can found custom installed modules correctly.
I guess there are two ways to handle this. First, just remove hdaps.ko module carried along with kernel package, so that it won't mess up module search path of hdaps.ko; Second, add correctly working thinkpad_ec.ko and hdaps.ko or better tp_smapi too into the package.
Here are all my on opinion, thanks for your attention.
Best regards!

You need to raise this with the kernel devs and/or the tp_smapi devs. Our kernel package is built from the upstream source, with as little interference as possible. If we apply patches, we ensure that they have first been submitted upstream, and ideally that they are scheduled for inclusion in a future kernel release.
It's possible that the tp_smapi devs have already submitted their work for consideration by the kernel devs, but either way, it's their issue, not ours. I'd suggest you submit a bug report to the kernel devs, outlining your problems with the existing module, and suggesting its replacment by the tp_smapi version. I would also contact the tp_smapi guys to ask them if they are in contact with the kernel team about this.

No modules found in kernel26 package compiled via ABS

Hi,
I have been experiencing problems building kernels recently. I've used ABS and AUR pkgbuilds to build kernels since 2.6.30, mostly to enable the proper USB scheduler for my hub and to try outside kernel patches, see kernel26-ck. However, since the release of 2.6.35.2, more likely a mere coincidence, I've been compiling small kernels (~4MB) from the default .configs without any modifcations to the PKGBUILDs or the config files. Looking at the compiled packages, I noticed the omission of the kernel modules that are normally located in /lib/modules/[kernelname]/kernel. The missing kernel modules obviously causes my machine to be unable to boot (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 15#p872215). My makepkg.conf is below. Any explanation on what is going on? Thanks

Ran linpack and noticed that my CPU temp peaked at 74C, well below the critical threshold of 100C (according to intel). Usually, my CPU runs at arounr 48-55C unless I am doing some CPU-intensive task. When that happens, it will run up to the upper 70s.

Hello,
I have paid for this service for a year and it never worked on my computer. I just renewed and it finally converted the file but it will not let me edit it. I join you in being bummed. Either I get help with this or I am asking for a 2 year refund. My intention was to be able to edit a pdf in MS Word.

Hello, I just got an iPhone 4S and it seems that the bluetooth function in it doesn't work. I tried few times to pair it to other non Apple phones and it never worked. Does anyone has an idea how to solve the problem? Tks.

Hello, I just got an iPhone 4S and it seems that the bluetooth function in it doesn't work. I tried few times to pair it to other non Apple phones but it never worked. Does anyone has an idea how to solve the problem? Tks.

This is not a feature of iPhone, iPad or iOS.
Bluetooth is supported for stereo headsets/speakers, handsfree telephone
devices/headsets, some keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps from the
app store and internet tethering where provided by the carrier.
Other than this it will not connect to a phone/computer/device. (thanks to ckuan for the wording)

Switching from custom kernel to the kernel26 package

I guess I'ma ewbie, so I'm posting here. If this thred fits better in some other forums, just move it.
I have used a custom kernel a long time, and would like to use the kernel26 package instead with modules and such. I tried to install using pacman, and added the following in lilo.conf:
image=/boot/vmlinuz26
label=kernel26
root=/dev/hda3
append="devfs=nomount"
read-only
I simply copied this from some other kernel I had in lilo.conf. When I tried to start using the kernel26 kernel, it panicked complaining that I needed a "root=..." option or something like that. I checked the wiki but did not find much info about configuring an arch kernel in lilo.conf.
Is there anyone here that might help me setting up the new kernel?

The kernel26 package uses initrd. You'll need to add an initrd line to your lilo.conf: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Initrd

HT1725 Dowon loads from store never work.... wasted time and money

Dowon loads from store never work.... wasted time and money

Thanks for reading and thanks for the advice. Perhaps I'll ask them about it next time this problem occurs, although carrying the thing through a mall that is only about a mile away is the least of my worries. I'll do if it is both free (I don't make enough at my job to pay for such a service) and relatively speedy, although I'd hate for them to come over and for the computer to work properly (as bad as that sounds). It'd be a wasted trip and nothing would get fixed.
I'm contemplating videotaping myself performing my "fixes" on it the next time I have this problem.

Never worked on JDeveloper

Dear Friends
I have never worked on JDeveloper. I have worked on Forms 6.0 and Oracle and have developed many packages. I feel I am good in Form 6.0.
Could somebody guide me how difficult will it be for me to work on JDeveloper. How to start and some references and sites that will help me in developing applications in JDeveloper.
For your information, I know Java and have worked in developing some couple of sites mainly servlet and applets.
I will be really thankful

I'd also consider taking a look at Oracle JHeadstart. It's a plugin for JDeveloper that creates prototypes of Web applications. The interface will be a lot more familiar-seeming to a Forms developer than will JDev right out of the box.
(You'll still need to use JDev's own functionality a lot--JHeadstart really is just a prototyping tool. But it flattens out the early parts of the learning curve.)

Why won't my pandora work when I'm not on wifi? I have the cellular data on for it but I never works. Also pandora isn't the only app of mine that does that.. What's wrong with it??

You're welcome.
Voicemail is left at your carrier's server. That will continue to work unless you report your iPhone as lost or stolen with your carrier.
You may never find it again and you can't if the iPhone remains offline or out of service which means the iPhone is powered off or doesn't have cellular reception.

Software deployment never works

The software deployment component has not been updated since windows server 2000 as far as i can see and it has never worked well, requires .msi and is just rubbish.
Why is there by now no good way to roll out software to users and why does the software gpo never install and uninstall software correctly, always comes up with pointless errors in the event log that never help.
Why is there no effort to improve this basic functionality?
SME are not going to buy SCCM and sccm is not that much better at rolling out software anyway.
I end up having to use login scripts and other non sense.

Yes, I have rolled out a thin image with MDT and so on.
One of the problems is that i installed X software as user context with gpo with a version 10.0. to windows 7 32bit roaming profiles.
Then I applied update to X software server to 10.2, swapped out the msi with the 10.2 version, then users moved to windows 7 64bit with new policy and new image from mdt. Then when they log in with roaming profile the gpo tries to install 10.2 of the software
and it says it can't remove the previous version. I don't see why it needs to remove the previous version because it doesn't. Running the msi within the user session manually works without admin rights and any issues, so i know there is no problem with the
msi.
I should have applied the 10.2 update to the users profiles before they moved to the new image and this would have allowed for the previous version to be detected properly. Even though I have tried pushing out the new version to the old image, it still fails
in teh same way.
Is it not possible to remove the package 10.0 then add package 10.2. Do i realy have to keep 10.0 in there and than add 10.2 and go to upgrades tab and specify that 10.2 is the new version of 10.0. Is it realy that rubbish that it can't just isntall the
msi?
However even just pushing out a flash update fails. Comes up with similar problems trying to find the previous version.I tried removing the previous version from program and features to see if it would work if there was no version installed it has similar
problems.

SAP transaction iview of GUI for html never works

Hi All,
We are implementing ESS/MSS on EP 7.0, ECC 6.0, ESS/MSS 600 landscapes for India Country grouping.
There are few SAP transaction iviews of type GUI for html and we tied up those to ESS Overview homepage framworks.
However, each of these transaction iviews throws the same error messages as below :
Error when processing your request
What has happened?
The URL http://hostname.domain:8001/sap/public/bc/its/mimes/system/sl/page/menubase.html was not called due to an error.
The following error text was processed in the system TD1 : This function is not possible
The error occurred on the application server TCSCQ1_TD1_01 and in the work process 0 .
The termination type was: ERROR_MESSAGE_STATE
The ABAP call stack was:
Method: IF_HTTP_EXTENSION~HANDLE_REQUEST of program CL_HTTP_EXT_ITS===============CP
Method: EXECUTE_REQUEST of program CL_HTTP_SERVER================CP
Function: HTTP_DISPATCH_REQUEST of program SAPLHTTP_RUNTIME
Module: %_HTTP_START of program SAPMHTTP.
I have activated all of the ITS services from sicf transaction. Published all of the services (global, webdui, webdui_start, system, shuffler) to internal.
I also executed the Webgui service from sicf tcode. But, still the same error message persists. Am I missed any settings for Integrated ITS ?
When I enabled option (Display a notification about every script error) from IE options, the system keeps on giving the mesage 'window.wgu.global.eventhandler' is null or not an object, wgu.ObjEventHandler' is undefined etc.,
I have noticed that none of the ITS services never work.
I would appreciate if anyone can shade some light regarding this issue. Any guidance or inputs in this context would be of greatfully help.
Regards,
Anil Kumar.

It sounds to me like Final Cut Express is what you really need to learn. I learned it by buying a book that included a DVD of examples to use as you go through the book. It will only take a couple of hours to figure out how to do most of what you need to know. Its the last 20% that will take the longest to learn, mostly because its the stuff you'll use the least.
The book I used was written by Tom Wolsky. It was for version 2 of the program. I don't know if its been updated. Take a look in the Final Cut Express forum. Ask the forum for recommendations. You'll probably get a response from Tom Wolsky himself since he's a regular on that forum.
I've since upgraded to Final Cut Studio. I occasionally still use iMovieHD because its easier for some tasks but not very flexible. For example, the themes in iMovie are easy to use but it would be near impossible to recreate them in Final Cut Express. So I sometimes just populate the themes in iMovie and export them to Final Cut to add to a larger project.
There are a couple of potential stumbling blocks in learning Final Cut, one of them being media handles. Once you figure out those, you'll be on your way...

My Apple TV does not work and has never worked.

My Apple TV does not work and has never worked. I replaced it twice and replaced my router and DSL modem but no luck. I spent hours on tech support with both apple and my ISPs with no luck. Any ideas? Is the Apple TV a donation to apple? I have had the device for 8 months but it will not work for longer than 15 minutes before it drops with network errors. All of my other devices work perfectly on the network including 2 iPads, laptops and an old wii. I love apple products and this is the first real disappointment I have had. The Apple TV seems like a major dud of a product.

Seems unlikely you have had two faulty replacements, and more likely that there may be some network compatibility issue or problem with reception in the location the AppleTV lies - anything close to it that might be interfering?
I am assuming you are connected via wifi - if you can try an ethernet connection to rule wifi issues out.
Could you try it at somone else's house maybe? If it worked there it would point to something specific at your location.
You could try replacing it again I guess or seeing if they can offer you credit or a refund.

Why am I being billed for equipment that never worked from the get go, and that your representatives admitted never connected to the computer on your end?

In September my husband and I were planning a cross country move and we thought that having a Jet Pack to go on line with while we were traveling would be a good idea. When we ordered it we told the representative that we did not need it until the 1st of Oct. as that was when we would be leaving. It arrived on our door on Sept 9th with the instructions to be sure and activate it within 2 weeks or we would lose the line. On the 19th we called in the activation and everything appeared fine. We hit the road on the 1st and Nothing, Na-Da, Zip, Zilch .... The equipment never worked from the get go! We called Verizon from the road on the 4th of Oct. to find out what was going on and the representative told us that the problem was with the computer on Verizon's end. We shut the equipment off for the rest of our trip and called for a refund on the 13th of Oct. We spoke to a representative named Juan, who again confirmed that it was Verizon's computer that had been the problem, and we were assured that all fee's associated with the Jet Pack would be waived as the equipment never worked in the 1st place. He told us all we needed to do was return the broken equipment and that he would send us a return label. We received the return label and sent the equipment back on the 22nd of Oct. On our next bill no credits of any kind had been applied? We promptly picked up the phone and called Verizon again, on Oct 31st, to find out what was going on? This time we spoke to Lou Ann. After about an hour and a half she finally managed to remove the fee's, or so we thought, and we hung up satisfied. On 11/5 our Nov. bill arrived again with no credits of any kind. We thought maybe the billing cycle hadn't had time to catch up with our most recent conversation so we called just to verify. This time we spoke to Moncheria. She did not understand what had happened and had to reenter the same refund that Lou Ann had earlier. Again another hour and a half on the phone. Today,11/28, we received our most recent bill and again no credits of any kind??? We picked up the phone and called again. This time we explained to Christian, (the above story), and she put us on the phone with her supervisor Carson. Carson proceeded to tell us that ALL of the previous representatives we had spoken to were wrong and that since we had not returned the equipment within 14 days of receiving it that we were beyond the limits of the refund policy, (which means we would have had to return it before we left on our trip), and the best she could do was offer us coupons for the future to offset THEIR mistake! No thank you I will keep my cash in my pocket!
1st of all we ordered it for the 1st of Oct. not for 9th of Sept.
Secondly we were told to be sure and activate it within 14 days or we would lose the line, never any mention of a refund time limit. (Who buys stuff anticipating an immediate refund?)
And 3d THE EQUIPMENT NEVER WORKED IN THE 1ST PLACE!!
Now Verizon is asking for $343.34 in fee's for something that never worked in the 1st place!! This is ridiculous and those fee's are defiantly under dispute! The way I see it trying to hold me to a contract that Verizon breached by sending out faulty equipment is just wrong!

ITunes says it needs to upgrade but the download never works. What's wrong?

One day I got on iTunes to put some music on my iPod Nano (one of the older versions), and always before when I plugged it in and came up and said it was plugged in, but then it didn't recognize it! This went on for several months, me never being able to put more music on my iPod.
Finally I got the newest Nano for my birthday and I figured it'd work, but the same problem is going on! I've had the brand new iPod for 3 months and it doesn't have ANY music on it!
It does come up and ask if I want to download a newer version of iTunes, that it needs that one to work right (version 8.2 something I think). I go to download it, it takes a while, and then comes up and says the download was unsuccessful, I've tried about 30 times, and it never works.
What is going on?

Instead of trying to update iTunes +from within iTunes+, go to Apple's page where you can download the iTunes 8.2.1 installation file -- save the file, don't run it direct from the download. Once downloaded to your computer, then run the installation file.
If that does not fix the problem, then remove the following software from your computer (you won't lose your music): iTunes, Quicktime, and something called "Apple Mobile Device Services". Once you remove those programs, then run the iTunes installer file (from above) again. That will install all three of these programs and should fix your problem.
