KDEmod + Gnome together in harmony

Hey!
I've been searching for this, but I found nothing on the topic, but I'm sure there's something about that already.
So, I've got KDE(mod) installed here, with Chakra, but because some programs don't look too awesome with KDE, due to
being based on GTK (Firefox - Skins helped a little), and some don't work at all or are unusable because of graphic
artefacts (OpenOffice), I wanted to install GNOME next to my existing KDEmod, and select which one I want in KDM.
Without messing up everything.
So, how can I install GNOME next to KDE and quickly switch between them? Will the behave good and share some of my
settings? I know the applications will be shared, but what about services? Will KDM start services/programs which will on
GNOME only waste my ressources?
I appreciate any help

1st:
Yes you can install both GNOME and KDE + any other wm de you'd like.
Then you use kdm or gdm or whatever to change between them on boot/display/loginmanager.
2nd:
You can use qt-gtk-engine to have uniform look or better... (since its quite buggy)...
Use qtcurve or other similar theme on both gtk and qt apps.
Search the wiki for "uniform look"
3rd:
I've replaced gimp, inkscape and openoffice with koffice aaand it even seems better than the competition
in some fronts. Altho it lacks alot on some other fronts still

[probably SOLVED] xmonad + gnome again

Hi folks!
After running 'plain' xmonad-darcs for a time i'd like to run gnome together with xmonad, so installed gnome today (haven't used it for years). gnome is up and running, but i can't get to get it run with xmonad as it's wm~
Of course i've tried to follow xmonad's wiki... I used other people's xmonad.hs, that basic one or that other one; additionally, xmonad-contrib-darcs v20081207-1 is installed. For completeness, I actually just use
-- xmonad.hs
import XMonad
import XMonad.Config.Gnome
main = xmonad gnomeConfig
It seems, that somehow xmonad can't be imported: a new created ~/.gnomerc makes no change, same with a copied "export WINDOW_MANAGER=xmonad" in ~/.profile (which is sourced by .xinitrc) or even in ~/.xinitrc itself. I added xmonad to the list of starting programs in gnome's session manager as well, I disabled nautilus and changed the position of the panel... Trying to start gnome with this:
export WINDOW_MANAGER=xmonad
exec gnome-session --purge-delay=3000
it says that --purge-delay is an invalid option (so i guess that is meant to work with an older version of gnome).
Then it comes up to gnome-session. But in my gnome there is no possibility to "select Metacity and change style to Trash"!? (Within the "sessions" I only can add starting programs or tell which applications to remember.)
Nevertheless, I can start an xterm and run "killall metacity; xmonad &"; then metacity disappears, windows are indeed tiling, but in the xterm there's the following output:
$ unknown ClientMessageEvent 269
unknown ClientMessageEvent 269
unknown ClientMessageEvent 269
unknown ClientMessageEvent 269
unknown ClientMessageEvent 269
and the system becomes almost unusable. After killing the xterm metactiy reappears.
I wonder how Phrodo_00 solved his problem, seemed to be trivial...
Any ideas?

Ugh!
Because starting x takes always 5-10 minutes I liked to speed it up. I thought it still could be gnome fighting against xmonad, since here xmonad is added as starting program while at the same time you have the "/usr/share/applications/xmonad.desktop" (see above). So I liked to see what happens after deselecting xmoand as starting program in the sessions manager... But from now on gnome wouldn't start at all anymore! Neither
gconftool-2 -s -t string /desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager metacity
nor
rm -rf ~/.gnome* ~/.gconf*
helped (I don't have a ~/.gnome2/session)! X just hangs after showing its cursor, and there are heavy cooling but lesser disk activities -- so how to reactivate plain gnome??
But also suddenly another problem seem to arise (but for heavens sake, why~ there weren't any before...):
In the first time I crashed X that error was shown in the console:
(EE) intel(0): underrun on pipe B!
-- But how comes?, I disabled these in /etc/xorg.conf:
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
Option "AutoEnableDevices" "False"
EndSection
Now there's another one:
error setting MTRR (base = 0xe8000000, size = 0x08000000, type = 1) Invalid argument (22)
Disgusting~
Nevertheless running plain xmonad works... ((edit: after exchanging the xmonad.hs of course))

MS-6378 Memory nightmare

G'day folks
First things first, what a great forum very informative
Now lets hope you can help me and my old yet beloved machine.
I have a MS-6378 which is stock standard with a 750 mhz Duron CPU and 128 mb SDRAM pc133,
Running Win XP which is all up to date and it has been running faithfully for years.
Well I thought It deserved an upgrade so I went out and got two double sided 256 mb SDRAM pc133 as per the manual
This is when all my trouble started, both sticks will work fine on their own or when placed with one of the old chips but when both come together my computer will boot just fine run for a few minutes but then it locks up. I have even swapped chips and tested them in another computer and they work fine.
Well after spending a good amount of money on ram and getting no where fast are relationship is becoming, to say the least STRESSED and I'm reading my computer it's last rights.
Please help us solve are diffrences so we can get back on with are lifes together in harmony.
Yours desperatly Coota

Thanks Wonkanoby
Well we have given the chips a check with Memtest86 and they past with flying colours.
(100% a ok). But my poor old gal is still unhappy. :(
Gone to dig a hole outback.

TX and Wi-Fi. My TX doesn't have WPA protocol

I've got a functioning wireless network at home (Linksys DIR-655), and several machines that successfuly connect.
My router is using configures as follows:
Security mode: WPA-Personal,
WPA Mode: WPA Only
Cipher type: TKIP & AES
802.11 Mode: b/g/n
Channel: 6
Channel width: 20Mhz
Here's the problem: My TX only has WEP and WPA-PSK, not WPA. As I understand it, WPA-PSK is not the same as WPA.
To answer the questions in the "Checklist"
1. Are you using an encryption scheme? WEP? Hex or ASCII? What bit depth, 64 or 128? WPA? Have you entered the exact case-sensitive key into your Palm? (Remember, 64-bit Hex on the router = 40-bit Hex on Palm, 128-bit on a router = 104 on Palm). If using "Passphrase", what is the ACTUAL KEY the passphrase generates? If a 10-digit code is produced, enter that into your Palm as a 40-bit Hex code. Also, try unchecking the "Use Four Keys" option.
--> Using WPA, hex. I did enter the exact case-sensitive key. My router has the option of WEP, WPA-Personal, and WPE-Enterprise. My TX asks for a "passphrase." Is this the same as the hex key used by my router? I did not enter a password/passphrase that was encrypted to form a key. My key was automatically generated by my router.
2. Is your router an 802.11/g or /n model? Is it set it to either "mixed" mode or "/b AND /g"? (The Palm is an 802.11/b model). If the router is set to "/g Only" it won't work. Try changing the broadcast channel of your router to something other than Channel 6 (the default). There may be many other routers nearby all broadcasting on the same channel with the same SSID! (default). If it is a newer "/n" router, try using the "/b and /g" mode if the "/b /g /n" mode causes problems.
-->802.11 b/g/n
3. Are you using MAC (Media Access Control) filtering in your router? If so, have you added the Palm's MAC? (On the TX, the MAC address is printed on the back of the unit). Are you running any kind of "Network Monitor" software that configures your router for you? Is there a "Lock Network" feature that is turned on?
--> No MAC filtering on router
4. Try entering the following address into your Web Browser on your Palm and see if a page opens: http://66.54.39.105 If it does open, then you need to enter the DNS (found inside your router labeled "Primary DNS and Secondary DNS" or DNS1, DNS2) numbers manually into your settings for the Wifi Connection you use.
(Wifi icon/Prefs/Setup/[highlight your router] /Edit /Configure /Details /Advanced/Change DNS server to manual and enter the numbers.)
--> Cannot connect to http://66.54.39.10
5. Is the "Use Custom Proxy" option set in Blazer by mistake? Check in Blazer/Pull down menu/Options/Preferences/Set Proxy/ Uncheck "Use Custom Proxy".
--> Custom Proxy is unchecked.
6. Have you tried unchecking "Conserve Power" from the Palm's "Wifi/Prefs"? (Palm TX ONLY -This seems to be causing a conflict on some routers).
--> Conserve Power unchecked.
7. Can you connect to any other router/Wifi Hotspot with your Palm? (If you can, then the configuration between your problem router and the Palm is not correct).
--> Have not tried any other router/wifi hotspots
8. Try cycling power to your router, then try to go online. Also, check to see that Dates and Times all are close to the same in all devices - PC, router, and Palm.
--> Done. No difference.
9. Check this posting at Brighthand.com entitled "How to choose and set up a wireless router with the TX": http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=98008
--> Done. It talks about WEP and WPA-PSK, not WPA.
10. Are there other routers close by you that are all on the same channel? (All named "linksys" and on channel 6?) Try changing to a clear one, away from the others.
--> There are a couple other routers nearby, but I doubt this is the problem as my wireless laptops connect without a flaw.
Would appreciate any and all help!
Post relates to: Palm TX

Ok, now we're getting somewhere!!!!
I have a Dlink DIR-625, close to the same software setup. I see the same thing you do, and my TX's (I have two of them) both connect perfectly, as do the 5 other devices in my home network! I don't have a Cipher option though. This might be the difference.
Log into your router, then go to the SETUP tab up top, and then click "Wireless Settings" in the left column.
I'll list my setup:
Enable Wireless: check
Wireless Network Name: (whatever your SSID is)
Wireless Channel: (I chose channel 2 to get away from the neighbors)
802.11 mode: Mixed /n, /g, /b <----(this is a must! You have to have a mode chosen with /b in it.)
Channel Width: Auto 20/40
Transmission Rate: Best
Visibility: (your choice)
WIRELESS SECURITY MODE
WPA personal
WPA
WPA only
Group Key Update Interval: 3600
PRE SHARED KEY (also known as "WPA-PSK", exactly what is on your TX!)
(Enter your own password/passphrase here)
Go back up the page a bit and click "Save". Your router will most likely reboot itself, and you'll have to change the password on all your other devices if you use a new word as the PSK.
That should do it! Everything works great here, the computers, TX's, Wii, IP Camera, all existing happily together in Harmony...

Itunes genius

Get Genius and iTunes Match to live together in harmony
by Dan Moren, Lex Friedman, Macworld.com Mar 16, 2012 5:54 pm
In a welcome move, Apple’s iOS 5.1 update included, among other features, the return of Genius Mixes and Genius Playlist for subscribers to iTunes Match. At least, in theory. Initially, we—and many others, if Apple’s support discussions are any indication—found that the Genius features either didn’t work or didn’t even appear on our iOS devices after installing the 5.1 upgrade.
SIMILAR ARTICLES
The dope on iTunes Match, Genius playlists, and iOS devices
iTunes 9
iTunes Match: What you need to know
Hands on with iTunes Match
First Look: iTunes 8.0
Hands On with Apple TV Software Update 5.0
The Genius icon vanished for iTunes Match customers. But with iOS 5.1—and possibly a little elbow grease—you can now get it back.
Genius, which builds a playlist full of songs that you are likely in the mood to hear based on the initial song you select, and Genius Mixes, which algorithmically assemble mixes of your music based on Apple-identified commonalities, would at first glance seem to be perfect companions to Apple’s $25-per-year service for storing your music in iCloud. But, when iTunes Match first launched, customers discovered that enabling it on their iOS devices caused the two Genius options to vanish.
Then along came iOS 5.1, whose release notes stated (in part) that the update included “Genius Mixes and Genius playlists for iTunes Match subscribers.” iTunes Match subscribers the world over—or at least the two of us—rushed to install the update for that feature alone. But, that update didn’t immediately deliver on its promise. For one thing, Genius Mixes, which used to occupy a space on the toolbar in the iPhone’s Music app, were nowhere to be found.
Initially, this error was all that the Genius icon could make happen on iOS 5.1 for iTunes Match customers.
For another, many users noticed that when they tapped the Genius icon to create a playlist based on the currently playing song, the Music app would only report that the track “does not have enough related songs,” even in cases where those users had hundred or thousands of songs in their libraries—and even when those same songs successfully generated Genius playlists in iTunes on a Mac. In other cases, tapping the newly-returned Genius icon would merely cause it flash white ever so briefly, but not to create a playlist. We both found that tapping the useless icon on our iPads repeatedly could crash the Music app pretty consistently, to boot. (That did little to lessen our annoyance.)
We suspect the issue may have had something to do with Apple’s servers for Match and/or Genius as opposed to the iOS itself. As of this writing, the Genius playlist and Genius Mixes features appear to once again be working correctly for both of us, although we needed to leverage a carefully implemented, scientifically sound fix first—one that didn’t work before Friday. That fix?
We turned iTunes Match off and then on again on our iOS devices a few times.
That maneuver is a pretty standard one in the world of iTunes Match issue debugging, but given that it didn’t work before Friday, we strongly suspect that Apple actually corrected something on its end to get the promised Genius functionality working again. And some Macworld staffers have since found that they now see Genius working properly on their iTunes Match-using iOS devices without going through the fix, so it’s possible that Apple coincidentally fixed what ailed the feature literally as we were writing this piece. If you use iTunes Match and still don’t see the Genius options, here are the steps to follow:
The iTunes Match toggle in Settings -> Music.
To turn iTunes Match off, visit the Settings app and tap on Music. There, slide the iTunes Match slider to the Off position. (While you’re there, note with mild intrigue that iTunes Match now has its own Use Cellular Data option, which toggles whether iTunes Match can download music when only a cellular network is available. It’s totally independent from the Use Cellular Data option for iTunes in the Cloud, which controls whether your purchases of Music, Apps, and Books made elsewhere are automatically downloaded to this iOS device.) As an added precaution, switch to the Music app, and wait for all your iTunes Match-sourced playlists to vanish. Once they have, return to Settings -> Music, and turn iTunes Match back on.
The off-again, on-again Genius Mixes icon.
Now, hop back over to Music once more, and try out the two Genius features. Does the Genius icon successfully trigger the creation of a Genius playlist? Do you see the Genius Mixes option? (If you’re not sure where to look for that one: It’s under the More tab on the iPhone; on the iPad, Genius Mixes appear first under the Playlists tab.) If both Genius features are working, your work—and ours—is done.
If not, repeat the steps outlined above once more—turn iTunes Match off, wait till the Music app is empty, and then turn iTunes Match on again. (You can skip the noting with mild intrigue step on this and any successive run-throughs.) In our experience, it took a handful of tries for the features to finally show up and, in some cases, it can be helpful to force quit the Music app. To do so, double click the device’s Home button, tap and hold on the Music app in the multitasking bar, then tap the red minus icon that appears in the top left corner so the icon disappears.
Macworld spoke to Apple about the Genius-related iTunes Match users early in the week, and the company indicated that it was investigating our report. At this time, we haven’t gotten official word from Cupertino regarding what went wrong initially, or why toggling iTunes Match off and on a few times may be necessary for some customers to reactivate Genius functionality.

No unfortunately Genius need the information from iTMS/users to get this information.
So without an account there is no way to activate that. Sorry

"Capture encountered a problem reading the data" ANYBODY HAVE AN ANSWER?

"Capture encountered a problem reading the data on your source tape..."
How do I get FCP to capture the footage? The tape is fine as far as I know. When I play the tape it shows up in the capture window, but when I click capture "Now", it'll capture 2 seconds, stop, then give the message:
"Capture encountered a problem reading the data on your source tape. This could be due to a problem with the tape. Capture has been aborted and your clip has been saved."
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Mac OS X (10.4.9) 2 GHz PowerPC G5, 4 GB DDR SDRAM
Kazinako
I have a Sony TUV 900, and this camera and this FCP have worked together in harmony for many years until recently. I have no external hard drives, only internal hard drives. The firewire goes out of camera and goes into back of computer. The tape plays fine in my TUV 900 camera, (where the tape was originally recorded.)
I recently read on this forum where someone said they:
"Actually, I just had to switch to NTSC in the easy setup menu. I could have sworn I did that last night but I guessed I missed it. Anyway, I can capture now."
I would appreciate any advice on this subject.
Thanking you in advance, Michael Kasino

Try another device-- deck or camera to eliminate that possibility.
So I did this and now suspect the camera...
I tried another camera, and I still encountered the problem, (probably because of tape damage at this point), But the ALT camera did a much better job and digitized over areas the TUV 900 could not.
Now, I agree it is a camera issue. It could be 'bad tensioning' in the cassette, or my tape transport in the camera could be 'slacking the tape'. (I was using a Maxell Minin DV rewinder recently.
Is this camera even worth repairing, or even able to be repaired? ( $3-500. ?)
Am I better off getting a newer model at this point?
Also I am seeing ALOT of 'artifacting', big blocky elements of distorted image to the left side of my screen during and on digitized clips. (Could the head be going south?)
Any thoughts helpful.

Question for CL Forum Ad

I have been reading through this forum and there seems to be no shortage of upset customers. They all seems to be asking the same questions over and over again, and the only answer given is, "I'll post more information when I get it".
Now, I'm not a real tech savvy guy, but why is it not possible, to walk over to the desk of the head developer, and say, "Hey Steve, can you tell me why the new drivers are the same as the beta ones?"
And then walk back to your PC and type the answer here. I mean lets be honest, unless you are sending messages via snail mail, I don't understand why this is so hard to do. I suspect you HAVE the answers, but the big cheese at CL has told you to simply deflect the questions for now.
What I am trying to say is that by you saying you'll post information when you get it, does nothing but make your company look completely rag tag. It gives the impression that everyone just works part time from home, and they only meet every other Saturday for a softball game. There is no official statements from CL, you guys don't have any answers, no one knows when anything is being released or what it'll have in it...it just seems like the company is in shambles.
And this brings me to my second question. While you're slow to respond to questions about why things aren't working and such, but you are quicker than a fat man chasing a rolling donut down the street when someone advertises another brand, so my question is what do YOU recommend we do?
Can you suggest some solutions for all of the people who bought CL cards and have no working drivers? I would really appreciate if you didn't simply ignore, or skirt around this question.
I think it's time you threw us a bone here, if you're not going to give us any information, then at least give us some other alternati'ves.

Dude, honestly, I could care less what happened 0 years ago. I have said it before and I'll say it again for you, just because this type of thing keeps happening doesn't mean it's right.
When I buy a product from a company I don't do it thinking, "Hey, maybe if I buy this product then the $200 will help them become the best company in the world, and I don't care if it works or not, I just like the feeling of supporting companies in the hopes they'll do well!"
I buy products, and I expect them to work.
Regardless, if you had actually read my post, you would see that I'm not asking when the drivers will be out, or why they aren't... I am asking why this "world leader" in sound cards can't communicate effecti'vely with it's customers? I am asking why the Admins keep saying the same old mumbo jumbo, and expect us to buy that they can't actually just go talk to the people in charge.
I am also asking if they can't tell me that information, then help me find some alternati'ves.
So, why don't you paypal me a few hundred dollars for a new sound card. You seem to have no problem sitting there giving your sound card "high fi'ves" and talking to it in a sweet voice, "Don't worry little sound card, I know you have amazing potential, I won't give up on you!"
"Do you remember the old days of Windows 2000?" We then cut to a montage of you running through fields of flowers hugging your sound card and a copy of Windows 2000. You shake your fingers at them and say, "Not yet little guys, soon we'll all be together in harmony, we just have to wait!!"

Syncing MBP and G5

So I just got a shiny new MBP and am very pleased. I have a networking question, though. I'd really like to find out what the easiest way, without a .Mac account, is to synchronize certain files and folders on my G5 with my new MBP. I'll be switching back and forth between the 2 machines quite a bit and want to keep everything in order as best I can.
Some of the stuff I want to keep current are a few work folders I have, the stuff in my Mail (not a .mac address), iPhoto stuff and so and so forth. What are the different ways that I can do this? Is Sharing something I should investigate? I want these 2 machines to work together in harmony, but I'll be the first to admit that I'm a bit of network know-nothing.
I do have a wireless network set up in my house using a Netgear wireless router.
Thanks in advance!
Brent

Hey TM,
I simply have Sharing turned on on each machine and my MBP can find my G5, see all it's files and vice versa. It's actually pretty slick. It's not a true synching solution, but it does what I need it to do. I can access a file on my G5, work on it on my laptop and save it right back to where it belongs on the G5, making that the master location for all of my work files. It's really pretty easy and super awesome.

New Media Server Install; audio stream stops/starts constantly

We stream a weekly radio show and even just testing with no listeners and there is no server load, our stream stops and starts continuously. It seems like a buffering issue but we're not sure where to start looking. It happens from many different locations geographically.
I'll be happy to offer details if anyone has some advice.
We are streaming our first live show with this new stream setup from http://www.pulpmx.com/pulpmx-show at 9PM PST tonight. We are actually just running some music right now as we try to troubleshoot what is happening.
Thanks

Well let me start by clarifying, we have a server setup with 2 cPanel accounts, one of which is a standard http site, the other has its own dedicated IP and domain which we use solely for our streaming server installation.
We were using the http protocol earlier for streaming when we were having troubles; we have since switched it to rtmp and the issues went away. This is problematic though because we cant load the rtmp stream into iOS clients (including our App).
So, we're pretty sure the issue was a conflict of sharing the same hardware for a true http website delivery and also an http streaming delivery. Would you agree and is there a way to make this all work together in harmony?
Thanks.

Compositing layers creates pixel shift

I have been compositing three layers, two are Animation codec QT, one is a TGA still. All are 1920x1080, millions+ and have their alpha channel knocked out. They composite, scale and effect fine. The problem is a 5 to 8 pixel shift on the X-axis that occurs on playback, RAM preview and naturally in the final render. There is no tell-tale filter or action that I can pinpoint that is causing this and I can't reproduce it verbatim every time.
The layer that shifts is locked and has no keyframes, set to fixed resolution, it is a TGA, 32bit still. The composited layers are 1920x1080 QT 29.97, no interlace. Whole project is set to 29.97 as are the QTs being used.
Any ideas, suggestions or similar experiences out there?
I appreciate any advice you can offer.
thanks

G5DP Mac OS X (10.4.9)

After many tries I have been unable to defeat the problem with the registration moving 1080 images around when compositing layers. The 2K limit is unacceptable. I have yet to upgrade to Motion 3 but I hope this is something they have addressed. If Motion cannot handle 1080 composites without glitches, it is useless to me and I'm sure, many others. Furthermore, if you are rendering for film, forget it. If the almost 2K images wreck the registration, anything larger would blow it up, too.
I tried fixed resolution, cropping (this would be a band-aid anyway, the whole point of HD is to get the full image, not a percentage) reducing the scale slightly, nothing helps. Previewing at half-rez and then back to full, the image jumps several pixels. I am resorting to using FCP until I install another package of AE or Shake. Very disappointed in Apple. If FCP is HD capable, Motion should be moreso. How can you zoom, rotate or distort a 1080 image if the engine is going to squeeze it and push the center reg around?
My advice to anyone experiencing this is to move to another solution, I have spent many hours trying to resolve this and am unable. Generally I attribute these things to PICNIC but this is definitely a software issue.
Dear Apple, please give us Motion HD, and not at a premium. If Apple intends to stay the leader in digital imaging, these "Pro" apps must work together in harmony. The license belongs to Apple, no third-party excuse here.
Ok, I'm done crying, back to work.

I have Kdemod and Gnome but when i am in Gnome i want Nautilus

I have installed kdemod and gnome but when i am in gnome when i go to "Places", all folder are opened with dolphin. But i want to use dolphin when i am in kde4. Is there a way to resolve it?

Yeah I've noticed this aswell, it's not just dolhpin. If you have anyother file manager installed gnome uses that instead. Can't help though sorry.

I'm using KDEmod. If I install Gnome...

Will the Gnome applications show up in my KDE menu and vice versa? I want to keep the DE's separate except for applications that aren't tied to a DE. How can I do this?

I believe there's some package/tweak allowing packages of one DE to sit under one menu entry in the other DE's menu, but I don't remember in which direction it worked.
-edit-
Ah, that's it.

Putting together some macro functions for Gnome

I have a buddy that's trying to get some macros going in Gnome. For example, Ctrl + T on the desktop would bring up a terminal, Ctrl + F would bring up Firefox, etc. How would we do that?

Just a quick tip, have your keyboard shortcuts involve the Windows (mod4) key. That way they won't conflict with any application specific keyboard shortcuts. For example, using Control + f to launch Firefox would conflict with using Control + f in Firefox for starting a page search, but Control + Windows + f would have no such problem.

KDEmod + Gnome together in harmony
