Installed blackbox. startx doesnt work...
Hi all, 8)
finally got some time on my hands and installed Arch! Heh!
Everything was fine except for the part after installing Blackbox.
So, Black install went fine, sure enough, it installed X, too.
I've changed .xinitrc to execute blackbox. Re-logged in.
startx - and error message comes out about configuration file not being found!
Now, what should I do to use Blackbox (or KDE that I've downloaded today)? Where should this configuration file reside and what to contain? Earlier, I was relying on SuSE/Mandrake/RH to do this for me, but ...
Cheers,
mladen :?
fyi: sorted!
I needed to run XF86Config to make the X config file and store it in its proper location. Some manual tweeaking of the config file is needed tough, depending on the hardware.
Do not be "fooled" by the "frozen" mouse after your X session starts (at least with blackbox and xfce it does). Just wait few more seconds and it will become alive.
Next step: PPP (ouch)!
Cheers to all, 8)

Each time i install itunes - CD doesnt work when rebooted - HELP!
i installed itunes on my pc and found it easy to upload a cd to it and my ipod, however once i shut down my lap top - when i restart it the following day the cd drive is not working - running a diagnostic stated that there was no cd drvie! running windows media player states ' cd drive required' and when routing around on the pc it shows a big red cross next to the application called 'Driver' i have run the 'system restore' which removed itunes - and found that the drvier then worked - then reinstalled itunes which again worked - but once again once the laptop was rebooted the driver stopped working - does anyone know how to get around this problem as it is driving me nuts!
This just started happening to me too. Never had a problem before the last iTunes update. Its also disabled my built in memory card reader.
I have been keeping iTunes disabled and try not to use it unless I have to. -
Since I updated to firefox 5.0, the windows media player plug in for firefox doesnt work anymore :(
Ok I recently upgraded to firefox 5.0, and then when I went to a website that uses windows media player to watch videos and news reports, it said I needed to download the windows media player plug in for firefox. And yet I had already done that in the past. So it directs me to the plug in for windows media player 11, I download and install and it doesnt work. Website repeats the same message, you need to download plug in. It was working fine with firefox 4.0! I use the OS Windows 7, 64bit. Any help please?
Yes I did, at first it identified it as already there, so it gave the option of repairing it, etc, so I uninstalled the Windows Media Player, then Installed it again, and it still doesn't seem to work! I have the same problem with several other plug ins, in the add ons and plug in section of Mozilla tools, I see that say, "incompatible with firefox 5.0" but as days go by those add-ons, that are built by those other websites seem to be repairing it, but I wanted to know for something as important as windows media player plug in, am I the only one getting this problem? :/

When I download camera raw 8.5 and install the raw converter doesnt work anymore, wont even open or isnt available anymore in the plugin list. Tried to reinstall everything for a few times, but nothing helps.
When I search for updates the raw converter doesnt get update automaticly. Frustrating, is costing me the whole morning.

I bought a macbook off of a friend but the CD drive to the computer doesnt work and was broke awhile ago. I needed to install some software onto this computer so I bought the Apple USB SuperDrive thinking it would work, but later finding out that it is only compatible with macs that dont have a superdrive built in. An Apple support technician told me that it could be done through a process, but she couldn't help me with. So it would be greatly appreciated if someone can help me with this problem. Thank You!
There is some useful information here about the process mentioned:

Of course you need to be very careful with any use of Terminal. -
trying to install the newest version of itunes on my pc and am getting "program cant start because msvcr80.dll is missing from your computer" reinstalling doesnt work. and then it says error 7 (windows error 126). Any help would be appreciated. Using Windows 7 enterprise on an hp Z600
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

Hello,
maybe you have to activate/deactivate first, so please have a look there:

great Problemes after installing Yosemite (10.10.2 ) with Photoshop CS6....The program crashes --last time 10 times during my work session..wacomtable doesnt work..it is slow...and get error messages about the graphic card....It s a Terror to work with my beloved Photoshop!
The Yosemite upgrade very often damages existing Photoshop installations. Thank Apple for that.
You need to uninstall and re-install Photoshop, then apply all the Photoshop upgrades from scratch.
But first, give us details about your setup:
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
Note that this is boilerplate text.
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CS6", but something like CS6v.13.0.6) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
A screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
etc.,
someone may be able to help you (not necessarily this poster, who is not a Windows user).
Please read this FAQ for advice on how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers:

After install, JFM doesnt work (windows)
i'm having a problem where i can install JFM just fine on my desktop and it works fine. Unfortunately i need to do a presentation of it and when i tried to install the JMF onto a laptop, after the install finishes, it doesnt get picked up. When I try to compile i get errors saying that my syntax is all wrong. Of course, it compiles with out a problem on my desktop. I've tried 2 different laptops and had the same problem both times.
I'm using eclipse to compile my program on both my desktop and the laptop i'm using to present.hi!
why you need to compile the entire code on laptop again?? you better put the jmf.jar into some directory under your project tree, and in eclipse point the jmf.jar. now you can build your own jar file and carry any where and give a demo. but in case you have to show the code as well, you check the path location of jmf.jar into your desktop and laptop both, if they are in different place this may happen.
i have just assumed all situation, so this may not help you, but you may give it a try.
GREETS :)
