Howto : install KDE 3 Noatun in KDE 4 (and probably other apps)

This is continuation of the story from yesterday. Today we will install Noatun in KDE 4. Noatun is my preferred media player from KDE 3.5
The story begins with me waking up on the grass in my home folder next to an uncomplete construction of black plasma panels called KDE 4.1

noatun
noatun: error while loading shared libraries: libartskde.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Issue resolved by extracting the files libartskde* (4 files) from kdelibs package and placing them manually in /opt/kde/lib and noatun works !
Note : some of the actions may break pacman or KDE
Basically whate do is
Uninstall KDE 4 package
Install KDE 3 package
Remove the conflict information from the KDE 4 package description files
Install back the KDE 4 package (overwriting the KDE 3 files if required)
Complete files from other packages if required

You could also use the kde3 packages from kdemod. There were some conflicts with kde4 initially but I think it should work now.

[HOWTO] fix throttling/temperature problems of GTX 870m (and probably others)

Hey,
The problem:
Other than repasting and undervolting using a VBIOS mod, you can't do much to prevent the guaranteed 93°C hit on the GS70 with the GTX 870m,
which results in serious throttling after a short while of full load on the GPU to prevent hardware-damage and thus, while playing, massive FPS drops. Also the mentioned "fixes" only delay the inevitable.
That's what I thought to be correct - turns out, it isn't.
This may work for any laptop/card combination with temperature/throttling issues, not only the GS70-2PE + GTX 870m!
I've found a way to circumvent the 93°C problem on the GS70 with a GTX 870m (may apply to other laptops/cards aswell):
The NVIDIA driver (and only the driver, not any hardmodded VBIOS) is able to set some stuff about the temperature target, you can't change with a hard mod - I've talked to svet about that.
Let's have a look some screenshots I took:
Screenshot #1 - default behaviour:
On the first screenshot you see the default behaviour of a brand new GS70-2PE with a GTX 870m - not repasted. It was taken right after I took the second screenshot, so there's still some amount of data left on the charts from before.
Have a look at the "GPU Core Clock" in GPU-Z. You'll notice big spikes (which go down to about 480 MHz) on the right hand side of the graph. That's the throttling the card automatically does when it's hit its 93°C temperature for about a minute. That are lag-spikes when playing something demanding.
You also notice on the "PerfCap Reason" row - when it was throttling in the "GPU Core Clock" row no soft performance cap was induced so this was done by the card (or the EC?) internally (that's the empty space on the right hand side of the chart).
Now let's look at the second screenshot.
Screenshot #2 - fixing things:
Notice the difference on the right hand side of both screenshots' "GPU Core Clock" charts. See the spike-downs gone in the second screenshot?
You can also see, that compared to the first chart, the driver has reduced the voltage to reach the Temperature Target while the clock rate was reduced.
Here I've slightly lowered the base clock of the GPU by -40 MHz, aswell as reduced the Voltage Offset by -18.8 mV. (Both settings may not even be necessary, please report your results)
This is the important part:
Additionally I've set the Temperature Target as priorized over the Power Target, and set the Temperature Target to 90°C.
As you can see when the GPU hits 91°C, after a couple of seconds it will clock down, but controlled by the driver (you can see that in the "PerfCap Reason" chart). It's not as bad as the drop to 450 MHz, it's just a 100 MHz drop, to about 810 MHz in my case. It stays there until it reaches a temperature of about 86°C, stays there a bit, clocks up again, and so on. (The clock values you see don't reflect the 810 MHz, the screenshot was taken while the PerfCap was not in effect)
Results
What have we gained?
No massive last-resort throttling by the card itself, but a small clock drop induced by the NVIDIA driver to meet our desired temperature target. A huge all-around performance improvement when the card gets hot and less FPS drops when playing for a long time or a GPU hungry game.
What have we lost?
Some few seconds of boost clock as the card clocks down a bit earlier. Also in my case I've lost 40 MHz of base clock (that may not even be necessary).
Combine that with a decent repasting and I'd call my GS70-2PE with a GTX 870m "stable" and reasonably fast on full GPU load.
By pressing the "Create Clocks Shortcut" button in NVIDIA Inspector those settings will be set on boot.
Please tell me what you think. Any improvements and experiences welcome.

Hey everyone!
I downloaded nvidia inspector to apply this fix,but shocked to see in default behaviour my Voltage Offset was -68.8. Should I change that? There is a big difference with the value the fix provides and my default value..
Also,I consider repasting with IC Diamond. Should I?
Hey,
the offset shouldn't matter - inspector showed some weird behaviour when modifying and/or initially setting it. Try to apply my fix and don't do anything to the offset as a first try to be safe. It shouldn't matter nevertheless, as we're talking about a very small millivolts value, nothing big.
Regarding repasting with IC Diamond: I've had great success in "repasting" using Liquid MetalPad - you might want to consider this.

Installed fonts not showing up in Font Book or other apps

I am having an issue where fonts will install, but not show up in Font Book.
I go into Font Book, go to File > Add Fonts..., navigate to a font file and click Open, the validating and installing windows will flash by, but the font will not appear in the list of All Fonts. The file will show up in ~/Library/Fonts/, but not in Font Book or any other apps.
Any clues as to what the issue is and how to fix it?
Thanks!

I had thought of that, but they literally are nowhere to be found in the All Fonts list. I've looked through the entire list, as well as searching for the font, but nothing.
The Windows font was a font was a completely separate family not found on my Mac at all.
I tried installing different set of fonts (ran them through the Validator and then clicking install when they all checked out), and got the following in the console:

I re-installed Mountain Lion from a USB stick, and now my Apps can't be downloaded. The App store indicates that the Apps are already installed, but that is not the case. Now what :)

I re-installed Mountain Lion from scratch of a USB stick, and now my Apps in the App store ca not be installed, the App store indicates that they are already installed, but that is not the case. Now what?

Ok, this is somewhat of a better work around I've found:
Starting in the Australian iTunes store, I go through the process of signing into the UK iTunes store up until the point it asks for my credit card information.
I then click the 'X' in the top left of iTunes to exit the store.
Now when I click on my Apps Updates button it shows me what UK Apps I have that are available to update.
You can't download these as at this point I've changed the store I'm viewing, but haven't officially switched accounts. Not to worry.
I write down the names of the UK Apps to update.
Then, use the 'search store' field in the top right of iTunes to search for one of the Apps.
Once you've found it, click to buy it / download it.
iTunes recognises that the App is already in your account and downloads it again for free….
… now I'm HOPING that that App is now fully within my Australian account… unfortunately only time will tell once there is a new update for it.
I'll let you know.

Creative Suite CS6 (Mac): Install only Ai Ps Id without Br or any other app

Hello.
For the upcoming OS X Yosemite I want to install as less as possible stuff on my Mac. I like to keep my system clean.
What I ask myself is, is there a way to only install Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign without any other applications? I don't use Bridge or the other ones so it would be great if there is a way to do that. When I hit the installation I can't uncheck Bridge for example. I bought the CS6 bundle download on amazon.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards
Robert

Thank you.
I thought maybe there is a chance to go deeper in the dmg (installation file on Macs) structure and select the installer for Ai, PS and Id separately, or something like this.
Is Bridge always a part of Photoshop? Is it possible to download for example Photoshop from Adobe and just use my serial number from the Creative Suite?
When OS X Yosemite is out and I am about to change to it, I will play a little bit with the installer file before I do a clean install and do some testing, maybe I will find a way.
By the way, I really like the Creative Suite. Love to work with these products. They are effective, fast and beautiful.
Best regards
Robert

I've installed OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and some Apple Apps installed unespectedly close even before they are opened. This affects Mac App Store, Mail and several other apps

I installed OSX 10.8.2 just yesterday night (12-27-2012) and every time I attempt to open some of the Apple Apps, such as Mac App Store, Notes and Messages, among others, they don't mount at all and a failure message appears on the screen instead. No matter how many times I try to open those apps, they won't open at all and the same message appears again and again. Is there a solution for this or should I reinstall the OSX Mountain Lion in order to solve this issue?

Marcus --
What is the error message exactly?

Everytime I try to purchase an app there is a message saying '*name of app* and 17 other apps could not be purchased. Please try again later.' even though it is installing

Can someone pls help me. It's been goin on for a few months now. Points for any half decent answers

I'm pretty sure this is a bug that was introduced in ios a while ago (I have the same issue!), it has been reported to Apple and we hope they'll release a fix with the next iOS update.

HT5457 My iPhone 5 does not have the apple app installed hence I am unable to drag and save new app to my phone through cable nor wifi need help asap

I try to drag n drop my apps to the iPhone home screen n hit apply but none of the apps was saved to my iPhone help!!!!....

If you didn't already do so, try uninstalling iTunes and all of it's components (not just iTunes and AMDS), then reinstall iTunes, as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925. Follow the article and uninstall them in the order indicated.

I have iPhone 4S, latest OS installed. Everytime I have updates in app store, I get "cannot install livingsocial and 6 other..." I deleted livingsocial weeks ago

I have an iPhone 4S, with the latest OS, 5.01 I believe it is. Most everything is great except everytime I have updates to download and install through the app store, I get a message saying "cannot install livingsocial and 6 other apps." The issue is that I only had livingsocial for a couple weeks then deleted it. That was a few weeks ago. Also I have no idea what the other 6 are. All my updates install fine, I just keep getting this message. And livingsocial and whatever the other 6 apps are never show up in the updates section, I just keep getting the stupid message. I click ok and it goes away. How do I get it to stop trying to install these apps? I've seen a ton of information about something similar happening on sync, but my issue is occurring during AppStore updates for which I can find no information!

That seems like a really odd coincidence that both ours say "and 6 other apps." As far as the app waiting thing, I've never tried tapping it twice, but I would hold down til all the apps started shaking to move or delete, but this one is the only one with no x for delete, so when I tap it nothing happens. I have tapped it repeatedly but never exactly twice. But after a short while, no matter what I do, it will just disappear on its own. In fact, I saw your "tap twice" message very soon after you posted it and was going to try it, but it had already disappeared by then.

Is it possible to install kde 4.8b1 from binary?

I've been on a mac for ages and have really grown out of love with it. The KDE 4.9b1 announcement got me moist and thinking again about moving all my computers to linux.
I was wondering what the easiest way to install KDE 4.9b1 would be? I'm not a linux newbie (despite the forum being posted to), I have no problem getting my hands dirty, but I'm still feeling my way around Arch.
Any help would be appreciated.
m1.

enable the kde-unstable repository or add it if you haven't already. Also enable testing.
As the names suggest -- unstable and testing means you should expect breakage. See this thread for more :

How to install KDE and Gnome

Normally I'm a big KDE user, but there are some things in GNOME I want to try out to see if I might make the switch. I already have KDE installed, if I wanted the option to run KDE or GNOME can I just 'sudo pacman -S gnome gnome-extras' and it'll show up in the session type for kdm?

i run gnome BUT like a bunch of kde programs
so both are installed
kde dose have a tendency to reset the "open with" defaults
then there is an option in kdm to run gnome,kde, or other
so it is not a problem at all , you might need to re set the "open with" defaults but that is about it.

When uve got the kde-i18n-* package installed u can select ur language settings in the Control Center from KDE.
Also check if uve got ur locales set, take a look here http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Configuring_locales It's just uncommenting and running locale-gen

Troubles after installing Catalyst and re-installing KDE

Hi everybody, when I was installing arch I was following the wiki and installed the open source driver xf86-video-ati and KDE (the last version in the repository). After that everything worked fine, until I heard about some nice games that run on Linux. This is the place where the troubles began. I read that I should switch video drivers with the catalyst ones for better 3D performance. After a couple painful days I had the Catalyst working... or had I. In this painful period I uninstalled the xf86-video-ati driver, installed the Catalyst (several times), after that I had many crashes from the KDE so I decided to re-install it too :] So the result from all this is: I can play the games that I wanted, but many of the nice KDE effects disappear (ex. the window switching - whatever type of window switch I select I get the basic one) plus the synaptics drivers don't work. I also found some errors in the /var/log/kdm.log file:

Same errors are seen in /var/log/Xorg.0.log. What causes them? Could this be the root problem for all others?

(EE) module ABI major version (16) doesn't match the server's version (13)
There's your problem. Are you using the xorg111 repo? If not, enable that and then pacman -Syuu.
As a warning, xorg-server 1.11 is now broken with the new udev package (at least until someone rebuilds it and updates the repo). You'll need to rebuild it manually to avoid this.

[SOLVED] Cant figure out how to install kde 4.3rc from official "testi

Well, I'm very new to this and I have lots of questions about Arch and I've been reading lots of forum posts and wiki articles.
Now,I've installed everything in the beginners guide with exception of a DE. And that's because I want to install kde 4.3rc even if the development id not complete yet. I want to install it from official repositories and not from kdemod.
I see there is a kde-unstable repo that I have to enable. But I kind of read that to use it I have to enable testing also and "know how to use it" And well, thats the problem about being new to Arch isn't it? I don't know how to use it nor there is some wiki article called testing.
So I have 2 questions:
How can I "use" testing repo? Are there guidelines to use it or maybe recommendations? I'm thinking about enabling that repo only for kde 4.3 and not for other packages, so, How do I do that?
And also, If I install kde 4.3rc now, whene it is moved to extra in a couple of days/weeks, how should I disable kde testing repo and enable extra again to keep my kde up to date? Will I need to reinstall everything when this happens?
Lol... Those where like 10 questions instead of 2... But maybe the answer is very small. I hope someone can give me some advice.
Thanks

Hi, I can't answer all your questions but can help you get started.
The file you want is at /etc/pacman.conf so use your editor of choice and open that file. So say I use the vi editor it would be >>>
vi /etc/pacman.conf
If the package you want is in testing uncomment testing repo.
If its at a custom repo put in the custom package repository info at bottom of that file.
Then use pacman -S "package-name" to install what you want.
EDIT
Heres some links maybe some help to you, I don't use kde so don't know anything about it.
