KDE wants to install along with old Xorg

Hi,
I installed X6.8.2 on base 0.7.1, then upgraded to X7 from testing. Changed the paths and everything works fine. But when i want to install KDE, it says i have to download X6.8.2 again, and crashes when checking file conflicts -
showing messages like "lib_gl.so is already present".
Am I doing sth wrong? Please help :?
ps. hwd -x also displays that "X server not available", despite it generated the xorg.conf file just before upgrading to 7...

hwd -x is yet incompatible with modular xorg as file locations have been changed. There is a thread about that already. That will probably resolved when modular xorg moves to current.
For your problem with having xorg downgraded when installing kde, you'll have to re-enable testing branch for installing kde. Kde from testing is compiled against modular xorg.

MAC PRO (Early 2008) RAID CARD ISSUE - SYSTEM FREEZEHello (hopefully someone can shed some light on my issue) I own as above a MAC PRO (Early 2008) this has a RAID card installed along with two 15k.7 cheetah hdd (320gb) and a spare drive, (which i m

Hello (hopefully someone can shed some light on my issue)
I own as above a MAC PRO (Early 2008) this has a RAID card installed along with two 15k.7 cheetah hdd (320gb) and a spare drive, (which i made a regular drive)
a while ago i had to replace the RAID card battery, so i did this, over a year later the same thing happened again, but as previous just left it and the system seemed fine for ages, until last night i was working in PHOTOSHOP and everything just froze and the screen kind of appeared GREEN, could not do a single thing. So restarted the mac, this time grey screen for ages and a message appeared, (macs version of blue screen) (see attached).
I restarted the machine and this time a flashing question mark folder!
could not do a thing.
so i found my copy of snow leopard and got the computer to run this and at least launch the DISK UTILITY and (Interestingly in the drop down menu RAID UTILITY was also in the menu) but it did not matter which utility i used the (RAID or DISK) neither could see any of drives, just the dvd drive.
so looked around on you tube and various forums and discovered if i take out the RAID CARD and re-plug the main lead from the RAID card back in to the LOGIC BOARD I would be reverting the MAC to a normal regular non-RAID computer.
After performing this HARDWARE task and inserting all three HDD, and running the DISK utility from the drop down menu via the SNOW LEOPARD disc.
(interestingly since the RAID card had been removed the RAID UTILITY from the drop down menu no longer appeared). running disk utility I can now only see the regular (spare) hdd and DVD Drive, but the two RAID HDD , again, still do not show up DISK UTILITY?
O.K. so i could chuck out the RAID card (AND RAID HDD) and just go with a regular set-up, and run a back restore from Time Machine on a NEW hdd purchased.
but what is wrong with the RAID, is the card at fault or are both HDD used for the RAID knackered? can i perform any tests, to see whats what?
thanks for your help in advanced.

hello people, the issue was in fact the GRAPHICS card nothing to do with the HDD or RAID system ( although this did cause issues with the RAID system it basically lost its way) below is my replay to another similar problem some one else had!
working in photoshop and then everything stopped working and the lot froze! only option was to force shutdown (via button).
and try to restart, hoping all was fine, this was not the case :-(
I had the added issue of the RAID card system, that i have, this was confused to say the lease and would not behave or work, causing the start up to hang.
so i thought the HDD must be bust and the root cause. ( but soon learnt it was not the cause )
...bought a new HDD removed the RAID card and replugged the cable from RAID card into LOGIC board, ( making the computer act like any normal non-RAID system). I managed to install the OSX, using the snow leopard disk way. once the mac was running, i started to notice the screen would flicker and started to see 'artefacts'. so i started to reveal my symptoms to the web and forums and soon discovered that my graphics card could be the issue all along?.
(nvidia geforce 8800gt 2x dvi).
I read up on that a fix, could be either A. reply the thermal paste, as the card could be over heating or B. stick the card in the oven trick.
Tried option A. first and nothing still issues, so last night took the plunge carried out option B. and ta da it worked! i even managed to run
from my new HDD my lasted install OS X, absolutely fine. I then thought, maybe i could repair my RAID so replugged all the HARDWARD back in and
carried out a disk repair and disk permissions on drives( took a small amount of time), via the SNOW LEOPARD disc - (Disk utilities) and this worked and now have my system working as it was just over 6 days ago.
what was the cost to get this? bought a new hdd so 40.00gbp and thermal paste and cleaner kit ( your still need to do this ) search video card trick on you tube.
and renew thermal paste, approx 15.00gbp, technically i don't need the new HDD, but it was all part of the trial and error way i went. ( i do have extra storage as a result!)"

Hi Paul,
According to your reply, i installed standalone versions of Forms & Reports (10.1.2.0.2)services on Linux suse 9. And it is working fine.
Now my next requirement is that i want to create three environment on my Linux box dev, test and UAT. this one which i have created before i am using that environment as dev.
Kindly provide me some direction that how can i create test and UAT environment on same machine which should point to different source files and databses.
1. Do i need to install again standalone forms/reports services twice? if yes then how can i access them?
2. Is there any setting in existing OAS configuration which can divert me to different sources and databases. i saw something like this somewhere

Want to install OS9 with an external CD drive

I have an eMac OSX10.4.11
They internal CD drive has died and I'm using an external drive connect by firewire.
I want to install OS9 but the computer doesn't recognise the external CD drive when I hold c and restart.
Any suggestions please

Besides the great advice from Limnos so far...
Is your eMac capable of booting OS9? One of the 1GHz models couldn't, any after that couldn't, and the ones that could need the special Install Disc that came with them.

What is Fast1 and why is it installing along with Adobe Flash?

I just updated Adobe Flash and when that was done, I found that File1 Package Manager had also installed and had launched and was in turn attempting to update other software. Pressing "cancel" did nothing, and when I went into the Task Manager (using ctl-alt-del) and clicked on "end process" I got an error message that I did not have authorization to end the process. Eventually it ended on its own, but WTF? It looks like malware: downloading, installing, and running all without my knowledge or consent. A full system scan with Microsoft Security Essentials, but I'm not sure if that would detect malware.
This seems to be something new, i.e. when I Googled it, there was almost nothing out there about it. I did find one forum on which mine was the first question, and several other people responded that they had the same experience.
One of two things would seem to be going on. Either the adobe.com web site has been hacked and malware is riding in on product updates, or the Adobe corporation has agreed to install Fast1 along with its products and just isn't telling its customers. (I was very carteful to watch for boxes to uncheck as I went through the update. There weren't any.)

Question: What is file 1 package manager ?
A: “File1 Package Manager (Ant App service) is a program developed by Helios Technologies. The software adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. The specfic verbage from the file 1 wesite ( http://www.file1.com/ ) states---
"File1.com Package Manager is a handy tool for managing all your programs within one space. It provides a user with a list of programs already installed and those available for installation. With Package Manager you can easily upgrade, install or uninstall all of our proposed software on the site. File1.com is a freeware guide that provides the best free software which is absolutely safe. It means no additional programs you do not know about, no malware, spyware, or viruses. "
Q: Why is file 1 installing with adobe flash?
A: It shouldn't if you are downloading and installing manually from the adobe.com. If you download adobe from a third party website this could be the reason. If you are on a shared computer, it may have been downloaded to your computer to obtain many of the free software it offers. If this is the case File1 may have auto updated your adobe flash
Extras:
You can uninstall File1 Package Manager from your computer by using the Add/Remove Program feature in the Window's Control Panel.
A.
A.    A. On the Start menu (for Windows 8, right-click the screen's bottom-left corner), click Control Panel, and then, under Programs, do one of the following:
1.    Windows Vista/7/8: Click Uninstall a Program
2.    Windows XP: Click Add or Remove Programs.

Intunes will not install along with quicktime

i download the latest version of itunes and quicktime and when i try to install it i get an error about how quicktime can not read c:/windows/installer/quicktime.msi cannot read so any help would be greatly helped i have totally removed quick time and itunes from every where program files folder and registry

I get very worried when people tell me that they were editing the registry. I hope you possibly made a backup of the registry before you did those edits.
Ok we are going to need a more detailed plan for you.
I still want you to redownload the standalone installers for both QT and itunes. Save them to your desktop.
The steps I'm going to give you are detailed and you need to follow them word for word. Read the instructions carefully cause I've had people totally do the wrong thing after they read a step.
1. Uninstall itunes, ipod & QT software from add/remove programs in the control panel. (If listed)
2. Reboot your PC
3. Re-download the itunes installer and QT and save this installer to your desktop
4. Go to C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations. You should see folders like {06EB3288-C5F4-4C73-8EEE-AC798668FF66}
5. Look in each of these folders for itunes.msi and delete the folder. Be careful to only delete the folders containing itunes,msi
6. Clean out your temp folders
a. C:\windows\temp (if one exists)
b. C:\Documents and Settings\{username}\Local Settings\Temp
Sometimes installers will pick up old files or won’t delete their temporary files.
7. Go to http://www.download.com/3000-2094-881470.html and download the regcleaner. Unpack it and run it. This is a nice utility that will delete broken registry entries and create a file with them. This way if it deletes anything needed you can add it back. Note I never had to do this with using it for many years. Also it doesn't list XP but you'll be fine. I run XP on both.
8. Delete the itunes and QT folders from c:\program files\
9. Reboot your PC between each installer!
10. Now try to go and install everything again. I'd do QT first then follow with itunes. Remember to disable virus/firewall/privacy/web accelerators before launching the install.
When you go to install QT please note everything that happens in detail for me. This way if something goes wrong I'll be able to suggest something else. Also write down the EXACT error message word for word if you get one. Once QT is installed, reboot and test it. If it opens ok then proceed to install itunes.
Let me know the results.

SSCM Query to export Microsoft Products installed along with the last logged username and other infos

Dear all, for a SAM Activity, I'm going to Asset a customer of us for the Microsoft products installed on their Workstations
The customer has SSCM and I would like to provide him a Custom Query to "have what we need" , mainly a report with : "Device NetBIOS name" "Last Logged Username" "Operating System" "Installed Microsoft Product"
"last SSCM contact day" .
Finally , if possible , I would like to exclude from the report the installed Patches and MS Updates.
As I'm a beginner with SSCM, has anyone of you already experienced such kind of needs ?
Many thanks to all for the help
Regards,
Davide

If the built-in report don't give you exact that then clone them and the extra fields.
However I have a feel that your team is looking for the "ridiculous" Software list report as such make sure that you read this blog post.

Itunes 9 just installed along with Explorer 8 and Windows Live...

Hello- Itunes says cannot connect with store sometimes, but then connects at other times. Then diagnoses says cannot creat secure link with store. Then it was all good and I bought an album.. it didn't download 3 of the songs, will I get charged? Also, how can I trouble shoot the connection. I have firewall set for allowing Itunes. I have recently upgraded to Explorer 8 with Windows Live and installed Itunes 9. My high speed connection and router are 100% a-ok. Will someone please suggest any cures for these issues, I like Itunes and would like to continue to use the store but this is the first bummer I've had so far...

I am not sure about intermittent secure connection failure, but something you could try which often works with isolated secure connection failure is this:
Go to Internet Options>>Advanced tab.
Uncheck "Check for server certificate revocation".
This should normally be checked, but it can sometimes cause connection problems. I also seems like something that could be intermittent.

Safe for 2600 XT to be installed along with 4870?

Hello everyone,
I have a 2008 3.0Ghz 8-core mac pro with both the ATI Radeon 2600 XT and the PC flashed ATI Radeon 4870 HD. My question: Is it safe to have both installed? Both are running off the PCIe 2.0 bus inside my computer, while the usb 2.0 card from sonnet is running off the 1.1 PCIe port.
I do notice that the 4870 is very warm in the back, while the 2600 XT isn't even being used, though its connected to the logic board.

It's safe. You would need to connect a monitor to the 2600 for it to be used otherwise it's just taking up space and power. The 4870 will be warm as it uses a lot of power compared to the 2600.

Hi guys, i ve baught the abo for lightroom and photoshop yesterday and today i wanted to install lightroom with creative cloud on my computer but there is an error that i havent got a valid key. does anyone know what to do now

.

The Creative Cloud Version of Lightroom does not need a key. Is it possible you have a Trial or previous version of Lightroom installed and that is what you are seeing? If so, uninstall the Lightroom version you have and install it via the Creative Cloud Application.

Can I still have older versions of CS installed along with CS5?

I need to continue to do some work in older versions of CS as per client's request. So I was just wondering if I can keep older versons of CS installed on my MAC at the same time I have installed CS5 and will they run OK.
Thanks
Bob

I currently have premiere cs4 and cs5 installed and have had no problems. I have noted on the forums here that some people were reporting problems. So the only way to realy know is make the plunge. I'm running win 7 pro.

Installing Bootcamp with Parallels installed

Hey guys.
I need to install Bootcamp to run Rhinoceros and Grasshopper with full graphics support. It isn't a good idea to run these programs only on parallels. However, I am told that I need to install Bootcamp BEFORE parallels if I want them to share the same Windows copy. I already have parallels installed, along with Revit and the full Microsoft Office suite. I don't want to delete all of my installed programs to install windows onto Bootcamp. Is there anyway to salvage this without having to dig up old codes and trying to get all my software back?
My end-goal is to be able to work in Bootcamp for serious CAD and drafting software, whilst still maintaining the capability of opening these same files for viewing and light edting in Parallels while running Mac. I would be using Bootcamp ONLY for Rhinoceros Grasshopper and Revit. Excel PPT word and other microsoft applications would be run exclusively through parallels.
Thank you for your views and responses
- Thomas

without knowing anything about parallels and feeling that the parallels forum would likely be a safer place to confirm your questions then
I would think that they mean that you just have to have installed bootcamp before creating the virtual machine in parallels which is to access the windows partition not wait with installing the virtual machine software(parallels) itself
but as stated parallels is about the only virtual machine software I have no experience with at all

I want to install 10.4 on my eMac which is running 10.5.8 so that I can install OS9. (Don't ask.)

I want to install 10.4 on my eMac which is running 10.5.8 so that I can install OS9. (Don't ask.) The eMac is the very last one which was produced for the education market. What I need is an idiot's step by step guide to un-installing 10.5.8 and then just as detailed instructions to install 10.4 and OS9 and also which installs first. I need to be able to use programmes which go back as far as 1994. I have a Mac with Lion so 10.5.8 is not necessary to me. Spec for the eMac can be found at this link: http://support.apple.com/kb/SP44. Perhaps 10.4 is not the best OS to install along with OS9. I shall be grateful for all the advice I can gert.

I'm not quite sure of some of the terms you have used - a bit technical for me: "use a Mac formatted drive or FireWire Target Disk mode" - What are these?
And I'm not quite sure what these are: "move the items 'Applications (Mac OS 9)' and 'System Folder' to the eMac's internal drive, open the Classic pane of System Preferences, and specify that system."
It is at this point I need the idiot's guide.
Obviously I do NOT just insert the OS9 disc and double click on the installer? Up to this point I have understood you very clear explanations but now it seems as my knowledge is lacking.
