[How?]More than 1 Wine version simultaneously

As a frequent Arch user, I want to broaden my knowledge and skills with Linux - this time, I'd like to be able to have 2 Wine versions - new 1.1.38 and stable 1.0.1. Right now I only have 1.1.38 installed under /opt/wine/. In q4wine it's possible to set different Wine versions, so it looks like something entirely doable and not that hard.
I looked under the PKGBUILD of wine-stable at AUR to see where it installs (I hoped for something like /opt/wine-stable/ to make my life easier), but it didn't tell me much. Because of my newbieness, I don't understand the relevant part:
build() {
ar x $(basename ${source[0]}) || return 1
tar xf data.tar.lzma || return 1
cp -rf etc/ usr/ "$pkgdir"/
But it doesn't look like it's getting installed to /opt/wine-101 or something close.
So, my questions are:
1) Where does wine-stable from AUR install as default?
2) How can I change it to install the binaries to /opt/wine-stable?
3) Will it read my current virtual drive ~/.wine/drive_c/ with any problem? Or I need to setup a separate drive?
4) Will there be two separate instances of winecfg?
Thanks for your help! It is greatly appreciated!

I Ctrl+C'ed it, because obviously it needs sudo permissions. But I don't know if I should run makepkg as sudo, because 1) it could be dangerous, since the PKGBUILD is yet unproved to be safe 2) there is something like fakeroot to use in PKGBUILDs, no? How do I do this?

More than one version of the same widget

How do I specify the CSS attributes if I want more than one
version of each widget in the same site?
Say, for example, I want two variations of VTabs with
different sized Tabs (and other attributes), what's the easiest way
of specifying the variations?
Chris

The orginals for those classnames stay the same, Spry will
use your defined classnames instead of using the hard coded
classes.
This only counts for the:
-tabHoverClass
-panelVisibleClass
-tabSelectedClass
-tabFocusedClass
U can just replace the classnames for all other atributes
with your desired classes.
Just remember for each new tabpanel u will have to create a
new tabpanel constructor:
var TabbedPanels1 = new
Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("UNIQUE-ID-HERE");
I suggest u read this:

And check the samples:

More than one version for orgunit attr

Hello all,
I want to load more than one version for ORGUNIT.
I'm able to load few hierarchy version for orgunit but only one version (the active one) for the attributes and texts of ORGUNIT .
Furthermore in my R/3 implmentation position is a part of orgunit hierarchy.
this means that position is also part of a specific version of orgunit.
But when loading POSITION into BW we can only load the active plvar so i
actually lose the information existing in other plvar for position in R3.
How can i extract and load more the one version for position and orgunit ?

Yes, there are multiple models. Buy one designated for your country.

Can you have more than one version of Premiere Elements on one computer

I have an Apple iMac 2.5GHz Intel Core i5, 8 GB Memory running OSX 10.7.5. I currently have Adobe Premiere Elements 9 installed and just purchased Premiere 11. I know they changed a lot on the new version and want to make sure it performs well on this computer and want to keep the older version in case my previous projects don't mesh well with the newer version. Can I have both versions installed on this computer?

Having more than one version of PrE on a computer has never been an issue for many users. Some have had up to four installed, for testing, and for gaining familiarity with newer versions. I do not recall any having any issues, at least not any, that were posted.
While I seldom have more than one version of PrE installed, I often have several versions of Adobe Photoshop, and have never had an issue. Same with Adobe Audition, and PrPro. Most Adobe programs (Acrobat Reader is one exception) will install in totally different folders, and there are seldom confilcts.
Good luck,

Can I use more than one version of Adobe Reader on an iPad, 8.1 touch and 11.1

Can I use more than one version of Adobe Reader on an iPad adobe Reader Touch and Reader 11.1 . . I use Acrobat XI Pro although I had some old files that were stored on adobe.com from a prior version of acrobat 9 student edition.
I guess the same question for my Surface Pro2 Computer might apply, although I gather from what I read that you shouldn't have two versions of reader on a computer.

If I may add a qualification: on a device running full Windows 8, you may have both Adobe Reader Touch and Adobe Reader (normal desktop edition). This does not apply to the primitive devices which cannot run desktop apps (running "Windows RT"), and while I may be wrong, I believe that the Surface 2 is such a device.

Can I have more than one version of adobe reader at the same time?

Can I have more than one version of Reader on the same machine?

I'm running Reader 8 because I like the user interface better than the more recent versions. I'd like to also install the latest version only for some integrated tools that require it for use with AIR. Can I have both installed? I don't see any options when I try to download and install the latest versions (like where to install the software. Ideally I'd like Reader 8 to be my default application to open .pdf documents.
Thanks in advance,
Gabor

C F,
Thanks for the reply. In the meantime I have found that my integrated tools (Xilinx Document Navigator) allow me to open documents externally using any version / brand of reader. It's not quite as nice as seeing the documents in the tool's own windows, but it's a good enough option for me given the relative infrequency I use this tool. If I decide to try to integrate the Document Navigator with Adobe Reader, I might get away with using Reader 10. Is there an app note on installing more than one version, or is this so "not recommended" that I'm on my own if I want to try it?
Regards,
Gabor

Firefox updater unable to update with message saying ensure that I do ot have more than one version of firefox running

As I start up firefox, I'm prompted to update but it fails saying that it cannot update and that I should make sure that there is not more than one version of firefox running

It was not directly useful, although interesting. It convinced me that there was a problem in android, so I reset to factory defaults and reinstalled Aurora. Now sync is working well again. thanks

Can't open more than 4 tabs simultaneously

On Yosemite it seems it's impossible to open more than 4 tabs simultaneously in any browser. Perhaps many won't see this as an issue but it's causing serious headaches when attempting to use various workflows.
Anyone know if this is a known bug and if so, where Apple are in resolving?
Thanks

This is not a bug. I'm able to open 13 tabs at one go.
Boot into the Recovery volume (boot with the Command + R keys held down), select Disk Utility and repair both the disk permissions and disk. Reboot normally and try again.
If that doesn't help delete the com.apple.Safari.plist preference pane in your Home/Library/Preferences folder and the contents of the com.apple.Safari folder in your Home/Library/Caches folder, reboot and try again.

Why more than 1 version of Photoshop?

Why do I have more than 1 version of Photoshop in my Creative Cloud desktop app? Photoshop CC + Photoshop CC (2014), see attached image.
I just found out that those are different version with different settings - bad surprise, I'll have to waste time updating the files created with the version with the wrong settings.
Why is this happening and I do I get to have only 1 Photoshop on my pc, so that I don't make mistakes again?
I already uninstalled and reinstalled through the creative Cloud app: it removed everything and then it reinstalled the 2 different versions.

Adobe Form used by more than one user simultaneously

Friends,
I am working on an online interactive Adobe form using Web Dynpro ABAP.
once the user enters the data and clicks the submit button, the data is sent to ztables.
the scenario is that more than one user can possibly use the same form simultaneously. in that case, how can i maintain synchronization ie how to avoid multiple users from using the form at the same time, when the form is already being filled by one user already.
I am guessing i have to do something with ADS for this.
Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi Bertrand,
The purpose of allowing only one user is to ensure data consistency as you have guessed.
Is there a program name or transaction code where i can look up the lock entries and see if i can apply them to my web dynpro application or the adobe form.
I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks and Regards.

Can't load more than 6 tabs simultaneously

If I try to open a large group of tabs all at once, the first few will manage to load before stalling out. After that, none of the tabs will load any further. Some stall part way through; most stall without showing any more than a blank page.
If I start killing tabs, eventually they'll start loading. The threshold seems to be around 6. If there are 6 tabs simultaneously loading, it'll work. More than that, and I'm stuck.
This works FINE on my Mac at home. I use it to open groups of related tabs (comics, news, etc.) so I can go through them all in one sitting. Under windows, though, it's a complete wash.
This is pretty much a dealbreaker. Unless someone has some advice, I think I'm gonna have to go back to Chrome. :/

I'm at work. If it were a problem with my internet connection in any way, though, I'd have the same problem with other browsers. Most notably, this problem doesn't exist in Chrome, which is also rendering using Webkit.

Is it OK to install more than 1 version of JDeveloper ?

Hi,
I am currently using two versions of JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.0 and 11.1.1.6.0 , the JDEV_USER_HOME for these two versions are set in two different directories also?
Now I have to use the Jdeveloper 11.1.1.7.0 also.
Is it advisable to install more than 1 or 2 versions in a single JDEV_USER_HOME ? Or should I give some other path for that new install also?
Thanks
Nigel.

I have 9-10 differen versions of JDeveloper (since 9.0.3 ) working at my compute with no problem. Some of them even share one and same JDK installation.
Hint: If you are the only user of your compuer, you can start JDeveloper with command-line option -singleuser. In this way the user's JDev system directory will be created within the JDev installation directory instead of within the user's home folder:
jdeveloper.exe -singleuser
Hint: If you need two or more JDev versions to be started and run concurently, you may have to specify different ports for the integrated WLS (if you develop Web applications) and start the integrated WLS).

Controlling more than 4 motors simultaneously using 7344

Is there any way of controlling more than 4 motors by using a multiplexing scheme. or can it be done in any other way.

The 7344 supports four motors (servo or stepper) simultaneously. As long as you are using stepper motors you could also think of switching the motion signals with an external relay multiplexer to more motors but then the multiplexed motors couldn't run in parallel. Depending on your application this would mean that you would have to switch a lot of signals (step, direction, limit switches, inhibt outputs,...) and I don't think that this would make much sense. With servo motors this approach wouldn't work anyway as the control loop would be interrupted.
If you want to control more than four motors you better should use another PCI-7340 (2 or 4 axes) or a PCI-7350 (2, 4, 6 or 8 axes).

How more than one MDB can be made to run in single transaction

Hi All,
I am working on EJB 2.0 with Application server as Websphere 5.0 and Messaging middleware as WebSphere MQ5.3
I am facing a design issue, I need to use more than one MDB in single transaction unit. Since an MDB can only run in transaction started by itself I am looking for some alternative approach
The problem in detail is as below:
Consider there is an MDB M1 listening on Queue Q1
Bean M1 reads Message (say msg1) from Q1, writes another message into Q2.
We have a mainframe system which reads message from Q2 does some processes and write it's response into Queue Q3.
Now we have another MDB M2 in same application server listening on Q3.
The requirement is if there is any ERROR in message at Q3, transaction started by MDB M1 should be rolled back and hence the message (i.e msg1) should be put back on queue.
Since trancation started by MDB M1 and M2 are independent I do not have any control to rollback M1 from M2.
Pls suggest me what alternative approach I can use.

I think if you are using container managed
transaction and have set the trans attribute to
"required" then MDB M-1 and MDB M-2
should have same container transaction.
wrong !
There is never a client transaction context available when a message-driven bean is invoked because a transaction context does not flow with a JMS message. [EJB spec. 2.0 15.4.7]
