How to start LibreOffice automatically with a forced VCL UI?

Hello,
I use MATE with dual monitor here and since LibreOffice was updated from 3.4.6 to 3.5.1 it doesn't work anymore in one of the screens. It does work well in the smaller screen (presumably the one the system thinks is the main screen, as most things are primarily loaded there), but in the larger screen it crashes immediately after starting. It gives this error, when ran from shell:
(soffice:3126): Gdk-CRITICAL **: IA__gdk_screen_get_monitor_geometry: assertion `monitor_num < screen_x11->n_monitors' failed
(soffice:3126): Gdk-CRITICAL **: IA__gdk_screen_get_monitor_geometry: assertion `monitor_num < screen_x11->n_monitors' failed
The program 'soffice' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'.
(Details: serial 2718 error_code 8 request_code 62 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
Sometimes it repeats this sentence
Gdk-CRITICAL **: IA__gdk_screen_get_monitor_geometry: assertion `monitor_num < screen_x11->n_monitors' failed
hundreds of times (for several seconds) in shell before stopping.
It only works in the larger screen if I force one of those UIs, according to the wiki:
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=gen lowriter
SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN=kde4 lowriter
When forcing gen the menus and buttons look very small, so the only option is to force kde4
So while the bug is not solved, how do I automatically force the kde4 UI for both screens, either when loading LibreOffice from command line ("libreoffice"), opening a file double clicking it or from a menu item?
Thanks!

It seems this bug can be fixed with little effort:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice … 34ade62f03
I hope this change will be integrated into the official repository ASAP.

How to start a application with a login window?

hi there
does anyone have any idea on how to start an application with a login window? a login window is the first frame or window to be displayed when an application starts running. and only correct login id and password have been entered the real application will start. any sample out there? thank you.

You can start a new thread by making a thread object and passing it an implementation of a runnable object. Runnable has just one method, public void run(), this is was gets executed in a second thread. perhaps the code you would use would look something like this.
<code>
// set up thread for login window
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
// construct your login window here
// when you are done processing the
// password....
if(goodPassword) {
authorized = true; // a global variable
notifyAll(); // don't forget this
else {
System.exit(42);
}).start();
// control does not stop this code gets executed while
// the above thread is running.
// Set up main program here. This is done in the
// backround.
while(!authorized) {
synchronized(this)
{ wait(50); }
// now when the user logs in this frame pops
// up real quick.
myFrame.setVisible(true);
</code>
Hope you can figure it out.. good luck :)

How to start BPEL process with publishing initiation form designed in ADF

Hii All,
Can Anyone please tell me how to Start my BPEL process with publishing initiation forms designed in ADF fusion.
I am using JDevloper 11g and Oracle SOASuite 11g toolset in windows platform.
Thankx in Advance,
Deekay.

Hi,
I assume you mean the JMS example under the $OH BPEL examples area. Unfortunately, this only shows how to get a BPEL process kicked off by awaiting a JMS message - but there is no test code there! There are specific examples which show off the testing framework facilities but it appears that all the examples which use async type of interactions are in the middle of a process which is kicked off by a normal synchronous client interaction.
Any further help much appreciated.
Colin.

How to start a systemd with certain configuration options?

Hello,
I do not understand what wiki page at arch that can help me to understand how I can start a daemon with certain configuration options. I know I can start with
# systemctl enable unit
, but for example, if I whanted to start "xboxdrv" with the option [--mimic-xpad-wireless --silent], or any other custom options I might need. I presume it can be done simple by dropping a .conf file somewhere, but I do not follow what wiki page that adress this - if it at all is possible?
Regards
Martin

Hello,
I followed the drop in option now in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sy … n_snippets
I tried to copy the whole xboxdrv.service and replace the ExecStart, and also only with ExecStart, like this:
[Service]
ExecStart=
ExecStart= ExecStart = /usr/bin/xboxdrv -D -c /etc/default/xboxdrv --mimic-xpad-wireless --silent
The drop in examples above is in: /etc/systemd/system/xboxdrv.service.d/override.conf
Reatarting
I then made sure the new .conf file was loaded by:
# systemctl daemon-reload
# systemctl restart xboxdrv
# system status xboxdrv
Result
In both cases, the service fails to restart and I recive this error
xboxdrv.service has more than one ExecStart= setting, which is only allowed for Type=oneshot services. Refusing.
Anyone know how I can start "xboxdrv" with my custom options "--mimic-xpad-wireless --silent" using this drop in function for systemd?
Regards
Martin

How to start NetworkManager sooner with systemd?

I couldn't find this problem on the wiki or on the forum, so I'm posting it. Sorry if I missed something and it was already discussed.
So I've upgraded to systemd and everything went smoothly, except for one silly issue. Namely, for some reason now NetworkManager seems to start later in the boot process (than it used to before migrating to systemd), and when my KDE loads, there is still no connection and the picture-of-the-day plasmoid and weather wallpaper cannot access the internet and therefore display errors. In couple of seconds the connection is established, but, since these widgets update only once an hour or so, they still show errors for quite a long time, unless manualy updated.
This issue was not present before migrating to systemd, NetworkManager was able to establish the connection before KDE loaded.
That's a bit annoying and I couldn't find a way to fix it. Obviously, it should be solved by forcing NetworkManager to start earlier in the boot process (so that it would have time to establish the connection before KDE loads), but I couldn't find how to do it properly. I've read that it's possible to set "before"/"after" properties for units, so, in principle, modifying NetworkManager unit and listing all other available units in the "before" section could work, but it seems to be a very ugly solution.
Enabling NetworkManager-wait-online.service just increases the boot time by 6 seconds, but doesn't solve the problem.
Last edited by jerf (2012-11-13 13:15:52)

Ah, ok, the network manager is started by the multiuser target,
but it does not yet complete it's tasks, before KDE starts. Have
you read the systemd concerning part of the wiki entry for the
network manager? Especially the part „Network services with
NetworkManager dispatcher“? It mentions how to handle Programs
which depend on the network interfaces to be configured (by the
network manager).

Upgraded 9.2.0.6 on Windows - How to Start Database Automatically?

I upgraded a 9.0.1.5FIPS database used as a metadata repository for OracleAS 10g (9.0.4) to 9.2.0.6 to meet a customer's security requirements.
The Windows service for the database is set to automatic and the instance starts automatically but the database is no longer started. I must issue a STARTUP command to mount and start the database. Before this was done automatically when the Windows service started.
Anyone know how I can configure the database to mount and start when the instance is started?
TIA,
Jim

Hi Nicolas,
Thanks very much for the instructions. I altered the system as you described and shutdown and restarted the database:

Don't know how to start instant messaging with camera

Hello to the Mac Family,
Once again I am stuck while trying to help my son.
He is on Winter break,,His girlfriend is on the West Coast..He is
on the East Coast.
So dad (me) went and bought him a web camera. I figured
they could chat as usaul using AOL instant messanger, but add video
to it. The Camera is a "rocketfish"notebook web cam about $50.00 US.
I tried to phone them and checked their web site. No answer on phone
and web-site not very functional.
The camera came with a CD. In the CD is several apps for PC that look
like controllers for the camera..thing like zoom rotate etc.
The only thing on the CD is a driver for the camera that is for 10.2 or higher.
His computer - G-4 I-Book runninng 10.4
Her computer - Some PC notebook about a year old (Not sure of OS.
Well now for the hard stuff....How do we start using the camera?
I sign on to IM using my slot load 350 running 10.2.
He connects to IM using the I-book. We do a direct connect and that is fine but
we don't know what else to do.
Not sure how to turn on the camera..it is usb powered.
We are stumped....Searching on th web has not helped me at all.
We are stuck.....Please help an old fool trying to keep
romance growing..
Happy New Year.....mGb.......Jim

Hello Ralph,
I am back and still trying.
"In the meantime go to System Preferences > Accounts
GO to the Admin account (hopefully you) and check the Login items
Does this list the Camera Monitor or does the Desk Top item launch the app (Is it already launched in the background ?)"
I went to system prefs and the camera and/or monitor are not listed as Login items.
The camera monitor is an icon that is siiting on the desktop. After I plug in the camera, I double click
the monitor icon and it opens a window. When it works correct the window is about 3x3 inches.
It does have prefs to adjust video etc.
The problem is ..most of the time when I double click the moitor icon, the smaller box appears. It is
about 3" wide and 1/4" tall. It is like just a menu bar with no window showing the actual
picture. The way I get it to work is go to the system profiler and highlight the camera. Then with this highlighted I open the monitor and see the camera video. My son seems to remember reading
that when the camera is plugged in..the monitor window should open automatically. This never
has happened. The only way I get the monitor to show is to double click it' s icon and open the app.
When the camera is showing a picture in the monitor, we open I-Movie to see if it will see the camera.
We make sure we hit the switch you highlited.. It says no camera installed. The only positive is that
it always shows in the system profiler.
If this was on a mac using 9.2 I would say it was an extension conflict and I would create a set of
extensions using the extension manager and try to solve the problem. But this is X and I am pretty
dumb about it.
I just don't know if I should return the camera and try a different brand or what.
I don't give up easy but this is hard....Thanks for you kind efforts.....Jim

Applescript: How to start an application with parameters

AppleScripters,
I am sorry if I have posted this in the inappropriate forum, I saw none with a specific regard to AppleScript.
Let us presume that we have a regular shell script which when initiated from the Terminal has code such as what follows hereupon:
/Applications/SeaMonkey.app/Contents/MacOS/seamonkey -editor /Users/joebuffoon/myhomepage.htm
In order to convert this to AppleScript I was told to use:
activate application "Seamonkey"
This works, but seems not to support the ability to either provision the "-editor" argument (such argument would impel Seamonkey to start in "composer mode"), nor does it seem to provision the allowance of supplying a file to open in "composer mode" as the aforementioned command line in my shell script would.
Can I ask if anyone has any idea how I can do this in AppleScript?
I am also interested to find a good book on Apple Scripting (preferably one available in PDF format as well, if possible).
Thanks in advance,
Stuart
