Local dconf database for machine-specific settings

I use gnome-session and gnome-settings-daemon (not sure what actaully sets the background) and I'd like to have a different background for different computers, but I don't (yet) know enough about dconf.
I added DCONF_PROFILE=~/.dconf-profile to my login profile. There, I set:
user-db:local
user-db:user
Should they be in the opposite order?
I created ~/.config/dconf/local.d and added a text file which sets org.gnome.desktop.backgrounds/picture-uri=file:///my/bg
I then ran dconf update.
This doesn't appear to have any effect. Some questions, goals:
1) I want "local" to only have my custom key for the background.
2) I want everything else (eg, changing gnome-system-settings) to continue to be saved in "user"
3) When I'm looking at the dconf-editor gui, is it populated by whats in my personal db or does it use the schemas in /usr/share?

env var USER_JPI_PROFILE might fix your problem

  • Open database for product specifications

    Hi forum
    I was wondering if there is an open database available with device specifications for Cisco appliances?
    I'm currently working on a project where I'm collecting as much information about our network appliances  as possible.
    So, if I could get my hands on a database where I can look up specifications or an API of some kind, that would make my job a lot easier.
    Kind regards
    Thomas

    Hi Harpal,
    You can have data source as source of your transformation for Open Hub Destination.
    Just check if your data source is active in the system or not.

    You need to uncomment it once and set the correct values. That's it.

  • External or  Internal IP for Database server machine?

    We have a web server machine with firewall controlling our network security. This server gets some critical data from a database server machine located also in the same local network. Which IP is secure for database server, Internal or External IP ?
    regards
    Siyavuş

    Internal IP
    For security reasons, is better if you could use a DMZ, with the web server in the DMZ, and the database server in the internal network
    Something like this:
    Internet <-->external firewall <--> DMZ (web server, mail server, etc) <--> internal firewall <--> LAN (database, pcs, etc)
    If you want more granularity, you could incluse put the internal servers in another DMZ

  • Transaction SE16: Field selection (User-Specific Settings) is NOT working for ALL tables

    Hi Guru’s,
    I have an issue in Transaction SE16, Field selection (User-Specific Settings) is NOT working in Tables (ALL tables).
    Following is the screenshot attached for your kind reference,
    That is in the initial screen of transaction SE16 if I choose Filed Name or Filed Label only the technical details (Field Names) are appearing and not the descriptions like Client, Purchasing Doc, and Company Code Doc. Category Document Type etc…
    Right now I am using ECC6 and EHP7 SAP system.
    Please help me to resolve this issue by implementing any OSS note or User Role creations or any technical changes required in system.
    Hope the requirement is clear and in case need any clarification please revert back.
    NOTE: Right now in Development System we don’t have any successful user to compare the settings.

    Thanks Patra.

  • How to use local database for Education Portal

    Hi All,
    We are implementing a Education Portal (learning Solution) and here are our requirements
    1. Course details are stored in R/3 portal
    2. When users login to the education portal, course catalog should be displayed with all the details and here the course catalog should not be displayed directly from R/3.
    3. course catalog should be read from some local database or XML ( how to update the local database/ XML from R/3 data periodically)
    4. Once when user sees the course details, if he wants to buy the course, he will register and do the payment.
    5. User details should be stored in the local database and only if he do the payment and his registration details will be stored in the R/3.
    Is any one have any idea how to go ahead with the above function and give some inputs.
    Regards
    Ponnusamy

    Hi,
    Basically, you would have to use plain JDBC / Open SQL or some persistence framework on top of it (e.g. JPA if you're on Java EE 5 / NW CE 7.1, or EJB CMP, JDO, Hibernate with previous NW releases) to store and load data in the local DB. For updating the backend ("R/3") you would use SAP JRA which is based on SAP JCo.
    Search for these terms on help.sap.com and you will find plenty of information about it.
    HTH!

  • I want to set default printer settings to be used only for a specific type of application, certain documents. All other print jobs should use a different default setting for the printer.

    I am printing a specific document from a web based application. This document need to be printed in landscape. So I would like to set the default settings for this specific printer to landscape. But for all other printers it should be portrait. But this does not seem to work. The browser picks the settings from the standard/default printer and uses this for all print jobs.

  • SQL ENTERPRISE: The edition of Reporting Services that you are using requires that you use local SQL Server relational databases for report data sources and the report server database

    The error below makes absolutely no sense! I'm using Enterprise Core...yet I'm being told I can't use remote data sources:
    w3wp!library!8!03/05/2015-19:08:48:: i INFO: Catalog SQL Server Edition = EnterpriseCore
    w3wp!library!8!03/05/2015-19:08:48:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.OperationNotSupportedException: , Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.OperationNotSupportedException: The feature: "The edition of Reporting
    Services that you are using requires that you use local SQL Server relational databases for report data sources and the report server database." is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services.;
    Really? This totally contradicts the documentation found here:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157285(v=sql.110).aspx
    That article says remote connections are completely supported.
    ARGH! Why does this have to be so difficult to setup?!?

    Hi jeffoliver1000,
    According to your description, you are using Enterprise Core edition and you are prompted that you can’t use remote data sources.
    In your scenario, we neither ignore your point nor be doubt with what you say. But actually we have met the case before that even though the SQL Server engine is Enterprise but the reporting services is still standard. So I would recommend you to find the
    actual edition of reporting services you are using. You can find Reporting Services starting SKU in the Reporting Service logs ( default location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\<instance name>\Reporting Services\LogFiles). For more information,
    please refer to the similar thread below:

    By the way, have you installed the other SQL Server edition before?

  • Legal requirements for showing specific ESS screens in local language

    Hi All,
    I would appreciate if you can let me know if there is any legal requirements for showing specific screens in local language? I would also like to know which countries and what SAP ESS screens.
    Thanks In Advance
    Sunny

    Good luck with that. I have never seen any "list of all countries" before like you are wanting. This will typically be part of your requirements gathering and blueprinting tasks.
    Just one question....what is your "global template" for implementation and what is your scope for localization? That will dictate much of your work.

  • User specific settings for message ME161

    All SAP Gurus,
    Is it possible to have user specific settings for message like ME161?
    We want the message ME161 to be displayed as warning message to one user and the same message to be displayed as an erorr message to another user.
    Is it possible?
    Regards,

    In addition to the above data:
    Messages are defined like this:

    Normally, in std case,
    Version will be always 00 for system defined messages....
    Now if you wanna make the the same message as authorised,
    then copy this exsisting message....
    While copying system will ask for version, here enter it it Z*
    Now on the other hand make the other settings for user/user grp in SU01 and here set the user parameter as MSV(THIS IS MUST)....

  • Language specific settings for ESS/MSS

    Hello Experts,
    I got a question on language specific settings on the portal:
    1) Suppose i have configured my ESS/MSS BP  and my settings are in English language. Now when i logged in to the portal and click, it is opened in English language only, but when i click on Leave Request page, this particular page is opened in some other language (i mean other than English), so what might be the problem and where are the settings needs to be done if i encounter these kind of errors.
    Cheers
    Vijay

    Hi Vijay
    There are so many things that could affect language here is the ones I am aware of
    1) IE locale
    2) JCO language setting
    3) Forced Language in Iview itself
    4) Missing translations in the translation cycle
    5) Java Dictionary bugs see 1082994
    6) WD JAVA runtime bugs see 1265969

  • Windows could not start the Cluster Service on Local computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 2.

    Dear Technet,
    Windows could not start the Cluster Service on Local computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 2.
    My cluster suddenly went disappear. and tried to restart the cluster service. When trying to restart service this above mention error comes up.
    even i tried to remove the cluster through power-shell still couldn't happen because of cluster service not running.
    Help me please.. thank you.
    Regards
    Shamil

    Hi,
    Could you confirm which account when you start the cluster service? The Cluster service is a service that requires a domain user account.
    The server cluster Setup program changes the local security policy for this account by granting a set of user rights to the account. Additionally, this account is made a member
    of the local Administrators group.
    If one or more of these user rights are missing, the Cluster service may stop immediately during startup or later, depending on when the Cluster service requires the particular
    user right.
    Hope this helps.

    are trying to better understand customer views on social support experience, so your participation in this

  • HT203792 Are there specific settings for the iphone microphone?

    I often sound muffled to others when using my iPhone.  I understand that there are specific settings on the iphone to cover or mask background noise.  Is it possible that I have this setting on and that is why I often sound muffled when holding the iphone between my ear and shoulder and not speaking directly into the microphone?

    Hey there hondafan53,
    It sounds like your microphone makes you sound muffled to people you talk to on the phone. For that issue, I would use the troubleshooting in the following article:
    If your voice is too faint or sounds unclear using iPhone, or iPod touch
    Test the microphone
    To find out if there is an issue with the microphone itself—and not the app you're using or your cellular connection—test the microphone with the built-in Voice Memos app. Speak into the microphone and then play back the recording. You should be able to hear your voice clearly.
    Fix common issues
    Follow these steps, testing after each with Voice Memos.
    Unplug anything plugged into the headset jack.
    If you're on a call and holding your phone next to your ear, speak into the microphone and make sure you don't block it with your fingers or shoulder.
    If you're using a screen protector or case that covers the microphone, remove it. Clear any debris from the microphones.
    Restart your device.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    If you've tried these steps and people still can't hear you well on calls, contact Apple Support.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • [SOLVED] pacman: grep database for specific packages?

    A debugger for zsh scripts.
    $ pacman -Ss zsh | cut -s -d/ -f2 | grep '^zsh ' | cut -d' ' -f1
    zsh
    I'm trying to grep pacman output for a specific packages (not just zsh) and receive only the package name as it was passed to pacman as a output (if it exists in the repos that is, otherwise blank / exit 1). The above command works fine in the terminal but when I'm trying to use it from a bash script it only returns blanks. How come?
    Simplified version of the script:
    tank (zsh ksh)
    for x in ${tank[*]}; do
    echo $x
    present=$(pacman -Qs ${x} | cut -s -d/ -f2 | grep '^${x} ' | cut -d' ' -f1)
    echo $present
    done
    I expect it to return output of a pacman command in the second echo (or blank if there's no packgae like that).
    edit: change of title.
    2nd edit: added simplified script.

    Brilliant! Much leaner. However it still doesn't work from a script:
    tank=(zsh)
    for x in ${tank[*]}; do
    echo $x
    present=$(pacman -Ssq '^${x}$')
    echo $present
    done
    Second echo returns blank... Am I quoting something wrong?
