Is it asking too much to be able to suspend in linux?

I posted over in laptop issues but perhaps there is little to no traffic in that area... http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 70#p527670
I am trying to get resume working on the kde suspend/resume. the /var/log/pm-suspend.log shows no errors that i can see.
any thoughts?

MarCustomized wrote:Have you tried adding the resume hook as shown here? You can also try removing the autodetect hook.
I should clarify, I am trying to suspend to ram.
I do have that hook, but I thought that only applied if trying to suspend to disk.
Does suspend-2-ram work?
I just tried running "s2ram" (via sudo s2ram -f) and I got the same result: unable to read the root disk

Contact sheets. Am I asking too much from LR

In my workflow I need to get 'printed' contact sheets out ASAP for public to look at, note file numbers, then view on screen > hopefully purchase.
I have produced a contact template 16up and on average we print 10-18 sheets at a time.
The time it takes to print is not viable (anything from 2 minutes (rare) - 20 minutes, average 15 mins +)
I have set to draft mode printing, increased my RAM to 12GB (from 4)
and the average file is about 3000 pixels.
I have set the Activity Monitor (Mac 10.8.4) to watch and there seems to be no 'page outs'
and the CPU and free space seem to be within their limits.
I have also tried to PDF and to Jpeg file, but this seems to take as long.
Also tried on LR3, LR4.4 & LR5 Trial, no difference.
Am I asking too much of my OS or LR.
Any input appreciated
Thanks
P.S.
saw 1 or 2 other posts suggesting Draft Mode made a massive difference even to big files, but not to mine.
Pages seem to load fairly quick at first, then hang.
May be my imagination, but the time to print seems to be increasing

After much searching I think I may have found the solution ?
We were creating 1:1 previews by editing the photos before printing to contact sheets.
The 1:1 Previews is what seemed to be causing the hold up.
So to remedy this
In Library > Library Menu > Previews > Discard 1:1 Previews > All photos
It then printed out the contact sheets at a fair rate of knots.
(I believe once you go back to loupe and zoom in, it then creates the 1:1 Preview again)
22 pages with 349 images ave. 3,500 pixels per photo = 12 seconds (compared to 20 mins to never),
obviously + printing time.
Quick silly question though ??
I take it if I have minimal preview settings this will not infringe the quality of the larger printed copies ?
(I take it, it is just that, a preview ?)
I would also have thought that LR would have found a solution to this before now
or at least provided some sort of info / tutorial / remedy.
Looking at the results from people having problems with this goes way back to LR2/LR3.

Am I asking too much of the Cisco DX 650 phone?

At the beginning of the week, I had high hopes for the DX 650. I set up this device with the hopes that it would not be a Cius 2.0 device. However, when trying to setup some of the non-standard calling features, the device seems to bog down and become painful to use. Here is what I setup, or tired to setup:
External 24" monitor
Logitech C930 camera
Bluetooth wireless keyboard and mouse
Proximity via Bluetooth to my iPhone
VMWare Horizon client
I have to say, the Bluetooth connectivity is poor and clunky. The iPhone would not stay connected, and the DX 650 would rarely show my phone as a second device for calling. Contacts were synced sometimes, and if I left the room and came back, it would not connect again. In addition, having the Bluetooth keyboard and mouse were slow when everything was connected. The keyboard and mouse would connect, sometimes. Before anyone judges me, I am not using the WiFi at all.
The Horizon View client is OK, but when you are in a video call, it is horribly slow. I ultimately disconnected the Bluetooth and went back to a wired keyboard and mouse. I also disconnected the external Logitech camera. With all the other devices disconnected, the video calling and Horizon View client were usable, but not great.
If I reboot the phone, it is OK for a while.....
Am I asking too much of this device? It has potential, but how can I recommend this as an all-in-one solution to my customers? Will it get better? I still want to test the VPN connectivity on top of all I mentioned above, but I am afraid it will be disappointing at best....
Thanks
Jesse

hi Jesse,
have you tried the latest dx650 firmware? cmterm-dx650.10-2-2-23.cop.sgn
Cisco has done a huge improvement compared to old firmwares. I can understand your experience, but i was surprised, when i´ve done an upgrade the latest Software Version of the DX.
Best regards

IMAP Mac Mail on Multiple Computers - Asking too much?

I'm trying to set up Mac Mail for someone who uses a different Mac at the office than they do at home. Yes, they could use webmail via a web browser, but can't Mac Mail be set up for this?
I tried to set them up using Mac Mail in IMAP mode so that all of their mail (inbox, sent, drafts, trash, etc.) are stored on the server but it's simply not working. Deleted mail just disappears. Trying to save a draft gives me an error message. Copies of sent messages are not being saved locally or on the server. Synchronizing the mailbox doesn't seem to work. Am I asking too much or am I just doing something wrong?
(They are not using a .Mac account, but their provider supports IMAP protocol.)

You’re welcome. Here’s an explanation of how mailboxes are supposed to appear in Mail that I’ve posted in other cases and that you may find useful as well. Let me know if there is still something you cannot figure out after reading it:
1. Instead of grouping mailboxes by account, Mail groups mailboxes by purpose first, regardless of whether they are stored locally or on the server, then groups by account the mailboxes that don’t serve a specific purpose in Mail. If you have more than one mail account, each has its own Inbox, Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk mailboxes, which appear under the respective group showing the account name instead of the real name of the associated mailbox in the filesystem.
This has the advantage of letting you choose at any time, and independently for each mailbox, whether you want to look at your Inbox, Sent, Trash, etc. mailboxes as if you had just one of them shared by all accounts (i.e. an aggregate), or look at each of the corresponding individual mailboxes separately.
2. Each mailbox under a pre-defined group is associated with a mailbox in the filesystem whose name may or may not be exactly the same as the name of the corresponding mailbox group. By default, the name of the actual mailboxes in the filesystem associated with Sent and Trash, for example, would be Sent Messages and Deleted Messages, respectively.
3. The association between a mailbox in a pre-defined group and the actual mailbox in the filesystem is fixed for POP accounts, but can be changed for IMAP accounts by means of Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For or the corresponding Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors > Store messages on the server setting.
4. Mail may defer the creation of a pre-defined mailbox until actually needed to store messages there. Also, in some circumstances Mail may be unable to create or locate the actual mailbox in the filesystem (see #10 below for an example), but the association does still exist in those cases from a logical point of view, even though Mail may be unable to display or store messages there.
5. Each and every mailbox appears once and only once in the mailbox list, be it (1) under one of the pre-defined groups with an icon that conveys its purpose and the name of the account it belongs to (if you have more than one mail account), or (2) with a generic folder icon and the real name of the associated mailbox in the filesystem if it serves no specific purpose as far as Mail goes. Under no circumstances can the same mailbox appear both ways; it’s either one or the other, depending solely on whether it serves a specific purpose in Mail or it’s treated by Mail as a generic mailbox like any other.
6. By itself, the name of the mailbox is no indication of whether it serves a purpose in Mail. If it appears in Mail with a generic folder icon, then as far as Mail goes it’s a generic mailbox like any other, no matter what its name.
7. For IMAP accounts, a mailbox with a generic folder icon can “disappear” and become associated with one of the pre-defined groups as a result of changing the corresponding Store messages on the server setting in Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors or doing Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For on it (server-stored mailboxes only). This, in turn, would cause the mailbox being previously used for that purpose to become dissociated from the corresponding group and “appear” as a mailbox with a generic folder icon.
8. In addition to the account-specific mailboxes that appear with the account name under each of the pre-defined groups, Trash and Junk may also have an “On My Mac” mailbox. This is where messages deleted or marked as junk are moved if they were previously stored in a custom “On My Mac” mailbox or in a locally stored mailbox associated with an IMAP account (i.e. a mailbox for which Store messages on the server has been turned OFF in Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors).
9. Generic mailboxes that don’t serve a specific purpose as far as Mail goes (i.e. mailboxes that appear in Mail with a generic folder icon), appear below the pre-defined groups. In principle, “On My Mac” mailboxes (i.e. locally stored custom mailboxes) would appear as top-level folders, whereas server-stored mailboxes would appear grouped under a globe icon for each IMAP or .Mac account. However, if there is no need to differentiate between “On My Mac” and server-stored mailboxes (e.g. because you only have one IMAP account and no custom “On My Mac” mailboxes), Mail will display the server-stored mailboxes as top-level folders instead, just as if they were “On My Mac” mailboxes.
10. Some IMAP accounts use a NAMESPACE feature that Mail doesn’t handle properly and that causes server-stored mailboxes to appear as subfolders of the account’s Inbox, even though they really aren’t — see “Can't create folders, only subfolders of INBOX” in the Courier FAQ, for example. Those IMAP accounts require INBOX to be typed in Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > IMAP Path Prefix for Mail to handle them properly.

Am i asking too much from my airport express?!

I have a belkin wireless ADSL router set up so that I can use my laptop anywhere in the house. I also wanted to print from anywhere and listen to iTunes on the stereo downstairs. Airport Express seemed perfect. I set it up as a client no problem and I can print and listen to music fine.
BUT I also have an X-box downstairs and wanted to connect it to the internet using the ethernet port on airport express. Didn't work. (hard-wiring it to the router works fine by the way)
Am I simply trying to get my airport express to do too much? Is there a way round this?
Thanks

If you have a router that supports WDS, that doesn't automatically enable it. If you are connecting by using "Join existing network" the ethernet port always gets disabled.
Once you set up the router to use WDS by going to the WDS tab, which will be available once you change "Join network" to "Create new network" (I know, this is a bit misleading, but it's what you need to do.). You might need to add the MAC address manually, but you can try searching for your base station.
Even after you have a WDS set up, you might still need to enable the ethernet port by going to the "base station options" and turning it on. It should default to on though.

Asking too much and getting a "stack over flow error"

I’m having AS3 create 12 random var (play1, play2, etc) and then I ask it to average the 12 vars (numbers) until I get a specific average number. When I run this in AS2 I get the “script time error, keep running?” question. I tell it to keep running and eventually AS2 finds the right set of 12 numbers to equal a specific average number. In AS3 I get a “stack over flow error”. I know that all my AS3 swf needs is just more time to find it.
Any ideas for a fix?

Am I asking too much of Premier Elements?

I've used Premier Elements for the past several years, editing news reports for the Internet and sometimes even for local TV stations. However, those were short, and they were on an older machine.
Recently I got a new computer. I had to get a 32-bit machine because one of the things I need the machine for is currency trading, and some of the software I use for that does not support 64-bit. The new machine is as top-of-the-line as I could go in 32-bit, Intel Quad-core i7 processor, Radeon HD4870 video card, two 1TB hard drives, 6GB ram. With the help of a local pro technician I put it together myself, though I have to say that the process was more difficult than I anticipated. I'm fairly technically capable but I have to admit that it all the tech stuff seems to jumble in my head after a while.
To accommodate the new machine, I also upgraded from PE 3.0 to PE 7.
I am trying to edit a talent show video from my daughter's school. I'm taking video from three sources, all Sony, a MiniDV HD (HDR-HC1), a solid-state memory Handicam (DCR-SX40), and a borrowed AVCHD (HDR-SR11). I also got very clean audio straight off the sound board onto a Tascam digital recorder. The show ran about 90 minutes, but I'm including some pre-show interviews on the track as well.
I will need to create a DVD for sale to the parents.
I have been able to download all the video onto the computer and into PE. The audio track is a WAV file and was easily imported, and dropped right into the "Soundtrack".
When I play the soundtrack back during editing, it cuts out. This happens with both the sountracks from the video and with the imported WAV soundtrack. I read the other post on this problem, and I'm not sure if the responses apply here, as the computer I have is (allegedly) so fast. I tried cutting down the WAV soundtrack and videos into small (single-perforer-length) segments of three-to-five minutes, still the same problem. Also, I don't seem to be able to get sound when I export the video. I've done it in a couple of formats, still no audio. Happens when I use sound from the WAV file and audio from the cameras. Do I need to procure some specific CODECs for this?
BTW, I am syncing the WAV track up with the MC's and performers' lips. So far the tests I've performed indicate that I can successfully do this, but the sound cut-out problem is really giving me fits during that process! (If anyone is interested in a trick for doing this, I find that looking at the waveforms on the sountracks and lining them up with each other helps a lot.)
Would moving the video files to the second hard drive help solve this problem, as well as taking the machine off-line during the video process and shutting off the anti-virus, etc? I'm sure the machine is up to it, but is Premier Elements up to creating such a long show and then burning a DVD? (I sure hope so because after spending all that money on a computer I can't afford the Pro software!)
Many thanks for all help and suggestions. -Bill

If I read the initial post correctly, you are going to DVD for you final output. Is that correct?
If so, I would re-Capture the AVCHD material as SD. The camera should be able to do that downconversion, and then PE is doing the Capture in SD as DV-AVI Type II files. For the MPEG material, I'd convert to DV-AVI Type II material, outside of PE. This will give you all DV-AVI Type II material.
Your Project Preset will then be DV, and everything edited in SD. This should make editing a breeze.
As for your Audio issue, Audio hangs, and drop-outs (provided that the source files are fine and play fine), *usually* stem from I/O issues - the ability of the HDD's and controller, to keep up with the signal. I am with you, however, that your system certainly *seems* robust enough to handle the Audio.
How are your HDD's set up? How are your various programs, and their files spread around. Things like OS, programs, Virtual Memory Page Files, PE Project files, media files, Scratch Disks, etc., can make a big difference. Let me know what the HDD utilization looks like, and I'll get a better idea of things that might help - or, maybe see no problem there at all, and we can move on to other possible issues.
Good luck,
Hunt

Newbie question, am I asking too much

I wanted to check here to see if what I want to do is possible and not waste a ton of time to find that "you can't get there from here." With the immanent demise of classic, I have a bunch of family members who have lots of Macwrite documents (we held out as long as we could) that need to be converted to MS Word docs. Can you write a script complicated enough to open a batch of Macwrite documents one at a time, copy the entire contents, open a new Word document and paste the contents into it, naming it the same except for the .doc? If something like this is possible, I'll bother to learn the program or if a script already exists I'd love to see it. If this is out of the ballpark, I'd like to know that too.
Thanks,
Ted

Am I asking too much of my power supply?

I do have a lot crammed into this Mac Pro - but isn't that half the point of resisting an iMac?
I've had an issue with getting a Harmony remote to be recognized by its remote software, and eventually used my office MBP to solve the problem. The phone service tech said he could see the remote, but the connection was too weak to go through.
A while ago, I also tried using a powered USB hub (a new newer tech model), and got a weird and horrifying reaction where the mac couldn't summon enough juice to boot - just a dim glimmer on the power lamp and a sigh, then nothing. Disconnect the hub, reboot, no problem.
So I'm wondering if I need to do some internal triage, reluctantly - and seeking advie.
Here's my confession:
Mac Pro 5,1 (Quad Core 3.2 GHz Xeon)
- 24 GB RAM (3 slots used)
- 200 GB OWC Mercury Extreme Pro RE SSD (Boot - Lower Optical bay)
- 3 TB Hitachi
- 3 TB Hitachi
- 2 TB Hitachi
- 2 TB Seagate (all main bay drives in striped SoftRaid array)
- PCI slot 1 - radeon HD 5870 (factory)
- PCI slot 2 - raid controller
- Display 1: Dell 24"
- Display 2: Dell 19"
- permanent USBs: Apple keyboard, Wacom tablet (Intuos 3)
- ad hoc USBs: iPhone, Epson 4990 scanner, Epson R1900 printer, stupid harmony remote
- firewire/thunderbolt: none (must try harder)
I'd love it if there was a way to make sure I can power all this through the main power supply, instead of adding on external RAID boxes etc.
Thoughts? Eyes rolling in horror?

What happens if you temporarily plug the stupid harmony remote into the USB socket the Wacom tablet is in?
I've used the Harmony software (both the simple version for the simple remotes and the more complex for the higher end remotes) without difficulty but in all cases the remotes were plugged into a dedicated USB socket. For the amount of time the Harmony would have to plugged into the Mac rather than changing channels on the TV, it would probably make sense to temporarily give it its own socket. And to make the swap easier, consider using a USB extension cable so the socket end is always easy to reach. Finally, unless you're using that USB hub with all the other stuff hanging off it on the MBP too, I bet the different results are due to giving the Harmony it's very own USB socket on the MBP.

Plz help me today i know that i ask too much but !!! i realy need it

hi all I need ready code for a simple paint program today for me ics projct
plz give me a halp on this give me what you have with you and it is so good if it look like this :
Design a GUI based drawing Java application that works like a simple paint program
1-There should be a number of buttons for choosing different shapes to draw. For example, there should be a button for rectangle. If user presses the rectangle button, then he can draw a rectangle using mouse. Similarly, there should be a button for each shape(rectangle, circle, ellipse, and line etc.
2-The shapes can be filled with different colors.
3-There should be option of moving .
4- There should also be three menus including File, Shape, and Color menu.
i. File menu can have menu items New and Exit. If user selects New, the drawing area will be cleared and all shapes will be erased.
ii. Shape menu will serve the same purpose as of feature 2 described above. It will have menu items for drawing all the different shapes. For example, there will be menu item for rectangle; so user can draw a rectangle by selecting the menu item for rectangle.
iii. Color menu will serve the same purpose as of feature 3 described above. It will have menu items for all the colors which are shown in color buttons. The user can select a color from this menu and then click inside a shape to fill it with the selected color.

I suppose it's asking too much...

for someone at Adobe to tell us just what the hell is going on

About 7:30 last night (West Coast USA) Adobe forums were showing up in a "Jive community" space and I could not log in, so I gave up
This morning about 7am w/coffee Adobe space was back and could log in
Got to work where I go to a different set of forums... back to Jive community and broken log in
Now 10:20am and back to Adobe space and log in works again
It would seem that someone is doing some testing... and the tests have failed, at least for me... and this is both with IE and Firefox
I wonder how long things will work this time?

2011 Macbook Pro suddenly says no space available on start-up disk (plenty available) and USB drawing too much power (only charging phone). What's going on with my computer? No longer able to charge my iPhone 5.

Hi, all.
Two days ago I was using my computer, a 2011 Macbook Pro, and suddenly got the error message reading "Your Mac OS X startup disk has no more space available for application memory. To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using. Closing windows and removing files from your startup disk will also help."
I was only using Google Chrome, nothing was running in the background, and I have 443 of 449.25 GB available (this is after clean-up I conducted after receiving the error message, but probably cleaned up less than 25 GB), so there should be no shortage of space. However, the message kept popping up and I deleted a few files and eventually it went away and hasn't reappeared.
However, last night and then again this morning I have been getting the error message that my USB drive is pulling too much power and has been disable. All that was plugged in was my iPhone 5 on the charger and my computer is also on its charger, so I don't know why this would be an issue, either. I have always charged my phone this way and never had a problem until today.
I haven't been able to charge my phone since. What's going on with my computer?

Is it too much to ask for Apple to explain the content of the Console?

I've asked for definitions of terms for years now ... defintions of console terms and phrases such as the following example, each of which may well relate, in terms of the components and the Consoles ref to their "loading", to the ongoing, sophistcated penentration that manages to deinstall my ESET firewall and screw up desktop components across the board. None of third-party malware products have ever found a "threat" on my system, but the malicious activity continues. '
Unfortunately Apple long ago decided against helping their customers with the UNIX-based Mac, pretending to the world that new OS X Macs were as simple use as System 9 Macs, and just as secure. LOL. What a lie.
Apple exploits its reputation for not documenting its products by continuing to not document their products. Apple also continues to imply in all sorts of ways that a Mac is the most secure platform on the planet, ignoring the fact that its Firewall is a joke because, among other things, its "safest" setting — Block All Incoming Traffic — lets Bonjour traffic in, as if it or its Windows twin ZeroConfig are safe when in truth Bonjour is a massive back door that is almost impossible to shut off.
WHY DOESN'T APPLE DEFINE ITS CONSOLE MESSAGES, ESPECIALLY THOSE REPORTING ON COMPONENTS THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DISABLED, SUCH AS ACTIVE DIRECTORY, WHICH HACKERS LIKE TO USE TO SET UP SHAM DHCP SERVERS?
WHAT DOES THIS MESSAGE MEAN? Plugin "Active Directory", Version "6.5.1", is set to load lazily.
Since I have the bad luck of being targeted, and since I know Active Directory represents a huge security hole unless it is used in a controlled environment (i.e., and office the infrastracture of which is used by IT staff to secure its at-work network), I know I don't want mdsresponder guiding a sham server through a firewall's "maximum security" setting.
SO, I SHOUT THIS QUESTION INTO APPLE'S ECHOING VOID: IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR A DEFINITION FOR: Is set to load lazily"?
Is there anyone with integrity left at Apple, or did they all leave when Bonjour was introduced?

Hi, as far as I can infer, that term means it's not loading any resources until needed, opposite of this...
-bind_at_load
Sets a bit in the mach header of the resulting binary which tells dyld to bind all symbols when the binary is loaded, rather than lazily.

Load resources lazily.
You should never load a resource file until it is actually needed. Prefetching resource files may seem like a way to save time, but this practice actually slows down your app right away. In addition, if you end up not using the resource, loading it wastes memory for no good purpose.

And, higher OS versionsare even worse with Bonjour/mDNSResponder, but might see this...

All I want is all my contacts on my phone and the same on my iMac, but no, that's too much to ask, instead I get everything doubled up on the phone and everything doubled up (triple in some cases) on the iMac, why does it do this? and more importantly how

All I want is all my contacts on my phone and the same on my iMac, but no, that's too much to ask, instead I get everything doubled up on the phone and everything doubled up (triple in some cases) on the iMac, why does it do this? and more importantly how can I stop it? Thanks

Look under system preferences on the mac at what is be controlled? Look at Mail, Contacts, Calendars. How many accounts are managing contacts? Just the cloud? the cloud and gmail? or cloud, gmail, yahoo, and exchange? If you have more than one contact account, then you will have different contact lists, if John Smith shows up in more than one of your contact lists, you will have multiple entries.
Pick a contact list that is your master, (I use iCloud), only turn on contact syncing for it. The same for your phone. Spend some time on the iCloud webset (www.icloud.com) and work on your contact list there. Clean it up, remove duplicates, etc...Changes will auto sync back to all your devices. Life gets much simplier.
Just remember, if you sync different contacts lists and a large number of people appear in your different lists, then they will appear as duplicates.

Too much to ask? Windows 8 epub reader + Adobe DRM...

Hello all,
Is it just too much to ask to read an Adobe DRM protected epub document in a nice metro-friendly Windows 8 interface (which Adobe Digital Editions most certainly is not)?
I have spent hours today looking for that little Holy Grail The only Windows applications I could find that would open Adobe DRM epubs (in addition to Adobe Digital Editions, of course) was Neosoar and Copia, neither of which qualify as a nice metro-friendly interface. Don't get me wrong, lots of nice Windows epub readers out there e.g. Freda, Kobo, Calibre but they'll be damned if they're going to interface with Adobe DRM!
I've bought the book; I just want to read it without fighting Adobe DRM at every turn. Any light on the horizon?
David.
...and what about Microsoft Reader? Did they even mean to publish that? My ear wax provides more utility than that app.

Is it asking too much to be able to suspend in linux?
