How to turn on session selector in GDM [SOLVED]

For some reason GDM is forcing en_US on all user accounts and I need one of them to be different. I googled and searched and most of the information is vague and confusing.
Does anyone know how to enable the session and language selectors in GDM?
Switching to SLIM is not an option because I need to be able to switch between accounts.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Apparently editing ~/.dmrc solves the problem. I had done that before but had set the file with the wrong permissions. Must be 644 and owned by $USERNAME.

    If this is a browser issue, you can go to Tools (at the top of the screen) and go down to options. Go to Privacy and change the Firefox Will to Use custom settings for my history. Then, make sure "Allow Session Cookies" is checkmarked.

  • How to turn off spelling check in iCal

    hi, i am new to mac (yeah, i finally made The Transition) and i have the latest Mac OS X Version 10.6.3. would anyone please advise me on how to turn the spelling check off in iCal. i can't seem to find any right answer. thanks a lot.

    A post from April 2010 and a similar question from 2009, both unanswered. Does this mean iCal spell checking can't be disabled?
    I find it outrageously annoying, worse than ordinary annoying, because the calendar is full of ten-dollar words like surnames that will always note as wrong. It's like having a surname highlighting feature. I can't even turn it off in a single event because the next time I launch iCal it's back on again by default. For that matter, why is the active toggle there at all if you can only turn it off for the duration of a session? I suppose I've adapted by turning it off manually every time a red squiggly appears, but I haven't stopped thinking about it.
    Is spell check impossible to turn off permanently?

  • How to turn off "re-open all application windows"

    How to turn off "re-open all application windows". Even though its unselected in preferences. my computer still tries to do this and causes startup problems and delays. its been a hangup since lion. when are they going to fix this???

    Try this. . .
    You have two choices. You can choose that your applications not resume their previous state when you shutdown or restart the Mac by deselecting the checkbox that appears prior to shutdown:
    Or you can navigate to the General pane in System Preferences and deselect the Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps option. However, if you do this, applications will never resume their previous state, even when quit and restarted during a single boot session.

    Details - Turning off session persistence in the version of Tomcat that ships with BlazeDS. We don't store much in the session so session persistence doesn't make much sense for us. Users should feel free to turn this back on if they feel they need it.

    Hi, thank you for your replies, I found out few things about my servlet, and its portability
    and i have few questions, although i marked this topic as answered i guess its ok to post
    I am using javax.servlet.context.tempdir to store my files in that servletcontext temporary directory. But i dont know how to give hyperlink
    of the modified files to the user for them to download the modified files.
    What i am using to get the tempdir i will paste
    File baseurl = (File)this.getServletContext().getAttribute("javax.servlet.context.tempdir");
    System.out.println(baseurl);
    baseurl = new File(baseurl.getAbsolutePath()+File.separator+"temp"+File.separator+"files");
    baseurl.mkdirs();so i am storing my files in that temp/files folder and the servlet processes them and modifies them, then how to present them as
    links to the user for download ?
    and as the servlet is multithreaded by nature, if my servlet gets 2 different requests with same file names, i guess one of them will be overwritten
    And i want to create unique directory for each request made to the servlet , so file names dont clash.
    one another thing is that i want my servlet to be executed by my <form action> only, I dont want the user to simply type url and trigger the servlet
    Reply A.S.A.P. please..
    Thanks and regards,

  • Turn off session restore permanently

    I want to turn off session restore permanently. Although I have set resume_from_crash to false several times, Firefox keeps setting it back to true.
    Can I ask please specifically for an answer to the question - not a list of links to web pages that just happen to mention the terms 'session restore' but don't answer the question.

    Do you want to prevent Firefox from storing session data at all, i.e., disable both automatic and manual restoration of the earlier session? Or do you want your choice about browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash to actually stick?
    '''(1) Regarding preference changes that are overridden'''
    Check out this article, particularly the part about the possible presence of a user.js file: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
    If you find numerous settings being reset to default, consider whether you have any systemwide cleanup utilities such as CCleaner running which might be helping you out by doing that.
    '''(2) Possible workaround: After a crash, view window and tab list screen instead of resuming automatically'''
    To prevent Firefox from automatically resuming your entire previous session after a crash, you can display a screen with a list of windows/tabs to restore. This may be helpful to avoid problem pages.
    (i) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (ii) In the filter box, type or paste '''session''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (iii) Double-click '''browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes''' and change the value from 1 to 0 (that's a zero) and click OK.
    '''(3) Remember nothing (also disables manual restore feature)'''
    In about:config, set these to zero:
    * browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo
    * browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo

  • How do I access session data through an EJB?

    Hi
    How do I access session data through an EJB?
    I am currantly developing a Web service (using ejb's, JBoss.net and Apache Axis). A client making a call to this Web service, is expecting a bussiness-object in return. My problem is that this bussiness-object i stored in a users session data. How do I retrieve this bussiness-object from the users session.
    I have read that this does not work with httpsessions, is this true? If this is true, is it possible to store the bussiness object in a JavaBean e.g:
    <jsp:useBean id="userContextWebImpl" scope="session" class="com.ac.march.client.UserContextWebImpl">
    <%
    String key = "test";
    String value = "This is the value";
    userContextWebImpl.setValue( key, value1 );
    %>
    </jsp:useBean>
    and then retrieve this information through the EJB? Or is it possible to do this by using Statfull JavaBeans? Or can this be done through a nother solution?
    Please help!

    I have created a JavaBean with scope="application" to store some data. The data is stored when a user prefomes a spesific task.
    A different person then makes a call to a Web-Service on the server. The Web-Service then asks an EJB to retrieve the data stored in the JavaBean (servlet cotext). In other words: How do I retrieve this data from the EJB?
    I have tried with this code, but with no luck.
    (ApplicationContextWebImpl is the JavaBean)
    public static String getBookingResult( String key )
         String myResult = null;
         String myKey = key;
         ApplicationContextWebImpl applicationContextWebImpl = null;
         try
              applicationContextWebImpl = new ApplicationContextWebImpl();
              myResult = (String)applicationContextWebImpl.getValue( key );
         catch ( java.rmi.RemoteException e )
         return myResult;
    }

    Does anyone know how to turn off the notifications that pop up in the upper right corner telling you that you have just changed from one configuration to another -- e.g. changing from tent mode to tablet mode?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Just disable it -
    Task manager > Startup > Click "Yoga Picks" > Click "disable"
    Next time you start your computer no more annoying pop ups.  If you want to be annoyed again you can always re-enable it.

  • I simply want to know how to turn off iCloud* without losing my contacts

    Call me old fashioned, but I really do NOT want to use iCloud EXCEPT for ONE THING*: and that's to find my phone, ipad or laptop if it goes missing.
    Having said that, I have figured out how to turn off icloud on my ipad and my iphone (I am not using the phone as a phone, just as a glorified ipod) while keeping the "find my ipad/iphone" function active, BUT
    I can't quite figure out how to do it on my laptop.
    I seem to have done it already for photos, and for the calendar, (I know this from checking iCloud to see what it's got) but just cannot figure out how to turn it off for contacts.
    And YES, I've backed up all of those things at LEAST 3 different ways, I just don't want the Cloud to be one of them.
    So can anyone tell me how to turn off contacts in the cloud without it also magically deleting them in my laptop? (I had it happen on the ipad, that's why I'm worried.)
    Thank you for understanding-I'm older and this stuff just keeps getting more complicated and I'm a simple person. I'll back up my own stuff!

    If you are refering to documents such as Pages and Numbers files....
    The only way around this is to "save as" you icloud documents using the associated app to a local folder on your mac.  Then turn off icloud.
    Of course, when you sign off of icloud, the docs are removed from the mac, but remain in icloud.  In the future when you sign back in, the documents are available to you again.
    Oh, and the icloud documents are also stored locally in ...
    ~/Library/Mobile Documents
    Note that Library in the user's home folder is now hidden, so you'll have to set Finder to view hidden files.
    The Mobile Documents folder has subfolder where copies of the doc/data files are stored.
    You can move these files to another folder to save them.

  • I'm using same icloud and same apple ID on two iphones. Now i get calls from same number on both iphones at the same time. How to turn off that?

    I'm using same icloud and same apple ID on two iphones. Now i get calls from same number on both iphones at the same time. How to turn off that?

    Apple ID's are not device specific, so when you changed it on the iPad 2 it changed it on the iPhone 4 as well, since it's the same account still. What you need to do is create a second Apple ID (so you'll have two accounts, one for iPhone 4 and a seperate one for iPad 2).
    To create a new Apple ID on your iPad 2:
    1) Go into Settings > Store.
    2) If you are already signed in, tap your Apple ID on the screen and you will be given a few options, one of which is to sign out of your account.
    3) After you sign out, now click the "Sign in" button.
    4) Tap "Create New Apple ID" and follow the instructions on-screen.

Any tips and info on what and how to turn off what I don`t need? Or am I getting ahead of myself here?...Just read the manual, fire it up and see what happens?...hmmm, I think I`ll take any help I can get!

    in System Preferences make sure FileVault is off, i'd turn off AirPort, and make sure Energy Saver is set to it's least restrictive settings (like not allowing the hard drive to sleep)

    a bit, i wouldn't worry about problems until you run into any. i've recorded a lot more, with a lot less
    PhilmoreEHT wrote:
    5400rpm serial ATA 500Gb
    that is probably the only stumbling block i can see. if you run into an issue where the drive isn't fast enough for the number of Audio tracks with which you wish to work, you can buy a FireWire hard drive to solve it (and shopping around they can be had for under $100 [a lot less if you're willing to "roll-your-own"])
