How do I get to GUI environmet?

Just let you know, I am a first timer...
I installed Arch Linux (Don't Panic) on my desktop and installed successfully,
The thing is after installation and reboot, I am at bash command line environment and can not do(dont know) anything.
I thought installation would provide gui environment the one that is similar to windows, but I am stuck in bash and grub.
Do I need to install gui application like xface by my self? or did i missed something on installation.

The place you are stuck is the beginning of what is beautiful about Arch. You have your core components installed, and now you can install Xorg and whichever desktop environment or windows manager you like, without having other things auto-installed that you may not want. The beginner's guide in the top paragraph of the Wiki is great, and the Installation Guide there also very helpful. You can hold down Ctrl and ALT and press a function key and access another CLI (command line interface) session. Open one of them (F2-F6 should be avaiable) and run elinks to access the Wiki. You can then use the Ctrl-Alt-Fn keys to toggle back and forth between your installation screen and your Wiki for more info. This save you from needing an extra computer to access the Wiki files. Note that some of the outline headers are also hyperlinks and have a great deal behind them, don't forget to click the headers, too.
You'll like "the Arch way" a lot after you've used it a little while. Good luck, and post back if you get stuck! The folks here are really nice and helpful if you've done some reading before you ask. That Wiki is dynamite!

Übernoob question: how do I get a GUI?

First post and I'm already whining
Freshly installed off the 150MB CD .iso, rebooted, woah, command line! I'm not very good with command lines, never have been. Is there any way to get a GUI? Or am I going to have to run some complicated script? All answers are appreciated

O, ok then.
Yes you can look for the package into the cdrom.
mount it and install wireless-tools
Better allways have the guide &/or wiki with you (I always use them as i do not pretend to know all their content).
Basically you do like this :
1) mount cd
2) install wireless-tools with
# pacman -A /mnt/iso/arch/pkg/wireless_tools-xxx.pkg.tar.gz
(please replace "iso" with the path to where you mount the cdrom)
Now I'm telling you again (but last time ) ; Underground Linux *is* arch (same tools, conf, repositories, etc.). The biggest difference is that it gives you Arch in a nutshell : everything you need to start is there after install, including KDE & most probably wireless stuff (again, if yours is Linux compatible)

How do I get my GUI back, alot of my sites are just text now.

After upgrading to Ver 9.0.1, all of my email sites ( Digitalpath, Hotmail and Aol) and a lot of other sites (Amazon, Download, Ancestry) are now text based.

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.

*Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
*Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

How can i get a file header using this method cl_gui_frontend_services= gui

Hi Experts,
How can i get a file header using this method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download
Thanks
Basu

Hi,
You can use the FM - GUI_DOWNLOAD to specify the headers. It can be done in the following manner -
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_head, "Structure for header
             h(10) TYPE c,
             END OF ty_head.
DATA: it_head TYPE TABLE OF ty_head WITH HEADER LINE.
"Adding header details
it_head-h = 'Field1'.
APPEND it_head.
it_head-h = 'Field2'.
APPEND it_head.
it_head-h = 'Field3'.
APPEND it_head.
it_head-h = 'Field4'.
APPEND it_head.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
    filename                        = p_file
   filetype                        = 'ASC'
   write_field_separator           = 'X'
   header                          = '00' "<= note this
TABLES
    data_tab                        = it_tab
   fieldnames                      = it_head[] "<= Pass your header table here
EXCEPTIONS
   OTHERS                          = 1.
Hope this helps.

How can i find SAP Gui logon pad version

how can i find SAP Gui logon pad version ?

Hi,
That's easy. At the top of the logon, you see a title bar with a general version indication. At the most left of it, you'll see an icon. Click on that and choose about SAP logon and you'll get detailed info.

How can I get the edited value from the editor in JTable

I have a JTextField added as an editor to a cell in JTable.
I value gets changed when I press enter.
but in actionPerformed of the JTextField when I say
String txtEditorValue = txtEditor.getText();
I am getting the old value. How can I get the edited value? Thanks.

Hi,
I guess, your understanding of how JTable works together with its models is not good enough - for example the method getTableCellEditorComponent(...) of the TableCellEditor interface is used to get the component, that should be used as editing component - its second parameter is a value that should be used to setup the editing component - it is normally not the editing component itself.
JTable uses an underlying TableModel to store the cell values - if you have edited a cell, JTable gets the value of the editing component by itself and stores it in the TableModel using its setValueAt(...) method. To retrieve this data you only need to query the TableModel using row and column of this cell as parameters
say jt is your JTable, and row and column are the row and column of the cell - so to get the value, simply use
Object obj = jt.getModel().getValueAt(row,column);
if you know, that there is a String in this cell use
String str = (String) jt.getModel().getValueAt(row,column);
The editor component is used for the view of the JTable - you only want the data, which is stored in the model - you don't have to deal with the GUI components in this case.

How do I get from a menu at login to CLI on a SG300-28 Switch?

I have a SG300-28 and would like to configure through CLI not menu. How do I get to Cli from Menu?
I am running Boot version 1.0.0.4 and SW version 1.0.0.27, Do I need to upgrade both boot and SW or Just SW?

Hi rod3,
Typically SSH/Telnet is disabled by default on devices. In order to activate it you will need to go through the WEB GUI to Security > TCP/UDP Services and check the boxes that say SSH or Telnet then click apply.
Then using a Terminal program of your choice you can connect to the switch and configure it. Be advised that the CLI is not exactly the same as regular IOS.

How can I get the events from a java program?

I want to make a monitor to watch a java program.How can I get the events from the GUI of this program some as mouse cliking, keyinput. So I can watch these in my monitor.
Thanks

Hi,
To put a monitor to the events occuring in the GHUI u need to register required components with the appropriate EventListeners.
Liek if u want to get notified when a mouse is clicked, then u need to add The MouseListener to the component which u want to be monitored.
Say
myFrame which is the JFrame object which shuld be monitored for the events.
Then in ur program u have to add following code
myFrame.addMouseListener( someObectReference );
Here the someObjectReference should be an instance to a concrete class ..i.e. U write a class like the following
public class MyMouseListener implements MouseListener {
// override the followig methods
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me){ sop("MOUSE CLICKED ON THE FRAME");}
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me){}
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent me){}
If u dont want to use another class for listening to the events. Then u can make teh current class monitor the events. To do so ur class should implement the appropriate listener and should override the required methods.
and u should say myFrame.addMouseListenet( this );
thats it

My old computer crashed and i just purchased a new laptop. How do i get my library on my new computer without erasing all the songs on my ipod?

?

If ALL your music is on the iPod and it's ALL iTunes purchased content, you log into iTunes with your account on th enew machine and reverse sycn the music back.
If the music is from cd's and other sources (not iTunes files) then ask over at iLounge what third party solution currently works. (can't recommond it here)
I have some HUGE instructions here how to get your music off the old comptuer too:
Recovery options:
A: If Windows isn't booting:
You need to boot the computer from a "recovery disk or USB" that has a operating system on it and a graphical user interface to transfer files from your boot drive to a external drive.
I suggest using the Easy USB Installer to install Ubuntu 10.10 onto a 2-4 GB USB key.
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/
or
burn a ISO of Ubuntu 10.10 or PartedMagic to a cd-r with ImgBurn or Win 7 right click and burn
You can use Disk Utility in OS X to select the ISO and burn to cd/dvd as well.
Once you have it installed, consult this page for your BIOS boot key to hold to get into the BIOS.
http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/a/biosaccess_pc.htm
Plug the USB into the back (if possible) of the computer, connect the external drive and enter the BIOS, set the USB (or CD) as first boot and SAVE.
Boot off the USB/CD and "Try Ubuntu/Run from disk" DON'T INSTALL. (Parted Magic loads into RAM and ejects CD)
Once in, go under the menu Places > Computer and transfer your files to the external drive just like you would in Windows, drag and drop.
(If using Parted Magic double click on the Mount Drive left icon twice, use the two GUI windows to transfer files to external drive, unmount drives, log out/quit in the lower left corner menu option)
B: If the computer hardware isn't working, but the drive might still work:
You'll have to remove the power cord and manually extract the hard drive. This might result in some damage.
There is a powered IDE/SATA to USB adapter for sale online for $20 that you can take that internal hard drive and use it like a external drive to access your files from another Windows machine.
C: If your iTunes content is deleted...
It might be recoverable if it hasn't been overwritten yet by fresh data. Undelete software works by reading the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, not what the OS says.
You need to use undelete software pre-installed before the iTunes content was deleted, or while on a bootable cd/USB and a external drive to transfer the recovered files.
You can also install undelete type software on a new machine and USE STEP B above to "undelete" the files and recover them directly to the new computer.
You can't install undelete software or recover files to the same drive your attempting to recover from or it overwrites the deleted data.
D: If the hard drive doesn't work and...
The data isn't worth spending $2000-$3000 in a ATTEMPT at platter dissection recovery, then your finished
If the data on the drive was encrypted, data recovery efforts may be futile, unless it's a encypted file and you transfer it successfuly and have the password to de-crypt it.
E: If you have a "iDevice" with any content
It can be synced back into iTunes, check at iLounge what third party software works reliably now and for your version.
(Once you log into your iTunes account, you can sync ONLY iTunes purchased content back from a iDevice)
Third party software can recover just about all the items on a iDevice, regardless of it's origin. (can't recommend such software here)
F: If any of the above is too hard, or the data is of "critical importance"
Then seek professional computer or forensic level recovery services.
Get help from someone who has done this sort of thing repeatly and can almost guaranty 100% results.
There is Linux software that can "rip" all data off a iOS device if that level of attention is needed, seek a professional service.
Hope this helps in your data recovery efforts.
Please, backup your data, it's the only thing us IT professionals can't recover.

How can I get my .java back from my Bean

I am using Forte CE v3. I created a simple frame with buttons, etc using the Gui Development tool. I customized where necessary for actions, etc. I used to be able to see and edit the code, but I think I turned this GUI into a bean and now I can't.
All I can do is 'execute bean' and change some simple bean properties. When I look in the folder that houses the file, I see .class file and .form files, but no .java files.
Can you explain how I can get my file back so I can edit it? I'd greatly appreciate any assistance.

You're right. I found it and got it to work. For some reason, the .java was actually a .java~ and Forte wasn't seeing it as a editable file.
Thanks for the help.

Lost Entries in WSUS Console Tree - How do I get back?

OK, I feel stupid asking this, because I'm sure the answer is easy, but I've searched and not found anything on this (maybe too easy to have been asked before, or maybe I just didn't include the right keywords in my search attempts):
This applies to the current version of WSUS in Windows Server 2012 R2.
I right clicked and selected "New Window from Here" on the Options icon in the MMC Console tree on the left of the WSUS window. I had thought this would open a new window so I'd have 2 WSUS windows open so I could look at multiple pages on my screen
at the same time. Unfortunately, that's not what "New Windows from Here" did. Instead, it changed the view in the existing window to Options and removed everything from the Console Tree in the left pane except for Options.
To be clear, nothing is wrong with WSUS -- it's working fine. I just screwed up the management console so I can't see anything except the Options page now, can't get to the reports or the page where I can review Sync status, approve updates, etc. I can now
only access the Options page.
I've closed and restarted the WSUS MMC. I clicked on File | Options... and deleted the profile changes. Nothing has restored the console tree. How do I get this back?
As an aside, while I feel stupid for not being able to restore the Console tree, I also think it's poor UI design that "New Window from Here" changes the existing window with no obvious "back" option, instead of opening a new window,
as the command's name implies will happen. Even for us administrators, when there is a GUI option, at least this kind of simple navigation should be safe and intuitive.
Thanks,
Colin

Lawrence, thank you for your post and the excellent graphics. The sfc /scannow I mentioned I was running has finished. It did indeed restore the original wsus.msc file, or at least the file date is back to the same value it was before (1/1/15 1:25pm).
I've also tried restarting the server. However, I still get the same error when trying to open WSUS from the Tools menu of the Server Manager or from the Start screen:
Microsoft Management Console
MMC cannot open the file C:\Program Files\Update
Services\AdministratorSnapin\wsus.msc
This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or
was created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you
do not have sufficient access rights to the file.
Any ideas how to fix this? When I search for this error online, I just find issues relating to XP.
Just as an aside on MDI (which may have been exactly what did happen in the first place, as you said, and I just missed it), it is clearly a design component that Microsoft is moving away from. I think that's good. For example Word and Excel used to be MDI,
but now, thankfully, each window has its own full frame/chrome. In almost all cases, that provides a much better UX (hence the change by MS). The real pain is that to put two (or more)windows next to each other, in addition to positioning them, with MDI, you
also have to expand the parent window large enough to see both of them, which means that if they are not exactly a rectangle together, you are covering part of the desktop just for the parent's background. It's also a pain to have scroll bars to move a viewport
to see windows within, as opposed to just dragging the (child) windows themselves. Maybe for a TS/Remote Desktop session, where you have lots of separate programs running and you want to keep them confined to a parent window, this makes sense, but there are
not many other situations where MDI is desirable.

How do I get these windos to communicate? I am lost...

I am a computer science student who was not happy with the scope of entry level programming classes. I am taking it on my self to learn the nuts and bolts of Java. Right now, I am working with GUIs for the first time and I am lost with this (probably simple) concept.
I have a class Main Menu which creates a window with several options; one of these options is to open a second window which allows a user to make a selection. I want for this selection to be imported back into the main menu.
The following code is from the Main Menu class, it launches the window and imports selected information
               if ( action == "Food Facts"){
                    FoodFacts food = new FoodFacts();
                    food.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
                    food.setSize(300,300);
                    food.setVisible(true);
                    /*This opens the next window. It works fine; however,
                      the code below, which sets the information, executes
                      immediately after the window opens. This results in
                      the return of null values. */
                    name.setText(food.name());
                    calsPerServing.setText(food.cals());
                    servingSize.setText(food.Serving());
                    convertList.setSelectedIndex(food.indexOut());}This is from the other class (Food Facts). It determines selection and prepares the selection to be passed on:
                    if ( action == "Import"){
                         format = que.toCharArray();
                         toNumber = Character.getNumericValue(format[1]) - 1;
                              switch(format[0]){

Well, considering that the posts are 3 weeks apart and that your earlier post (on 18 April) didn't include any code, it's not, strictly speaking, a cross post. But I don't blame morgalr for being peeved that you didn't respond to the advice given on your [earlier post|http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5287276].
Around here, that's a very good way not to get help.

Itunes got erased/how to I get my songs back

I don't know what happened, but all my songs in Itunes got erased for some reason. I had over 2800 songs in it. I still have all my songs on my Ipod, how do I get them back on my Itunes? I seen a topic on this on this site, but that was about transfering songs to a new computer, and it needed the original Itunes in order to achieve this. Someone please help me, there is no way I can import 200+ cd's onto Itunes again, it took 3 months the first time.

These links will give you
i several
methods of recovering whatever songs remain on your iPod; some free, some third-party software, some more comprehensive for restoring playlists, ratings, counts, etc. Read them and their associated links before deciding on a strategy that works for you.

How do I get the GidBagLayout location from my buttons?

How could I get the location of my JButtons (or JLabels) in my GridBoxLayout?
I've tried all that I could think of..
here some code sample
JButton button;
    GridBagLayout layout = new GridBagLayout();
GridBagConstraints c = new GridBagConstraints();
        c.weightx = 0.5;
        c.weighty = 0.5;
        c.insets = new Insets(20,20,20,20);
        button = new JButton("Button 1");
        c.gridx = 0;
        c.gridy = 0;
          button.addActionListener(this);
        centerPanel.add(button, c);
        button = new JButton("Button 2");
        c.gridx = 1;
        c.gridy = 0;
          button.addActionListener(this);
        centerPanel.add(button, c);
          System.out.println(((JButton)e.getSource()).getText());
          System.out.println(layout.getLayoutOrigin());
          //System.out.println(((JButton)e.getSource()).);
          //System.out.println(((JButton)e.getSource()).location());
          System.out.println(e.getSource().toString());
          System.out.println(layout.getLayoutDimensions());
//          System.out.println(layout.lookupConstraints(((JButton)e.getSource())));
          System.out.println(layout.getLayoutOrigin());I think that's all you experts would need..
what I'm trying to do is when I click on one of them buttons then fetch where that buttons is (in the GridBagLayout, not absolute) and be able to add a new button to the side or under the clicked button..
the System.out.println(layout.getLayoutOrigin()); does seem to give me x=0 and y=0 but that's the same with all buttons so it isn't good enough

I think that's all you experts would need..You would think wrong. We need a SSCCE to see exactly
what you are doing.
see http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html,
In general component don't have a size or location
until the GUI is visible. That is the layout manager
isn't invoked until the component is displayed.
If you want to add a component after the component
you click on then you would probably need to use the
add(...) method that takes a position variable as a
parameter.yes I think I need to use the add(..) and a position variable
the problem is that I need to get the position variable from the other component so I could put the new component at the right position
as for the SSCCE I do think that I do that..
but for some extra information
I'm writing an applet.. and I use a borderlayout for some component.. in the center panel I've placed a GridBagLayout and some buttons.. I've given the buttons an ActionListener and now I want to get the location in the GridBag of the Button I've pressed
so when I click one of them buttons I want to know it's location.. as in X=1, Y=2 or something
so I could place the new button on X=1, Y=3

How do I get to GUI environmet?
