Making docky or cairo dock work with oracle linux

anybody know how to do this? i've tried for a few days but it seems beyond my capabilities.
:>
im using it as a desktop. im starting to like it how it is though.
other software:
anybody have the game 'red eclipse' working on oracle linux?
anybody have a good note taking app working on oracle linux?
anybody have any desktop 'applets'?
thanks!

Are you referring to: http://www.zdnet.com/free-software-father-declared-ubuntu-linux-to-contain-spyware-7000008516/
Well, I would not necessarily consider above article a show stopper to use Ubuntu. You can turn the surveillance off. Many if not most software products call home and there seems to be a global trend to penetrate internet users with intelligent advertising and marketing. So they probably get you in one way or another. Just install a web add-on like "Ghostery" and you might be surprised.
CentOS, Scientific Linux, Oracle Linux, etc., are all free derivatives or clones of RHEL and as such will give you the exact same trouble with unsupported hardware. Fedora is the closest Linux distribution to RHEL designed for computer desktops.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_derivatives
If not Ubuntu, then perhaps Linux Mint will suit your needs.

You can install free Oracle VirtualBox and give all these Linux distributions a try before you consider dual-boot.

  • Oracle 11g XE not working with oracle BI publisher 10g after enabling ACL

    Hello,
    I previously work with oracle 10gXE and Oracle BI publisher 10g and it work fine. now i install oracle 11g XE and try to configure it with oracle Bi Publlisher, it show this error
    "ORA-29273: HTTP request failed ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1324 ORA-12570: TNS:packet reader failure" after runing the ACL package to neable network service.
    on the database.
    Please can any body tell be why this is not working. Tanx.

    You'll need to add the apex engine owner to the ACL (Access Control List). Depending on your version of apex the user name varies. i.e. 4.0 is APEX_040000
    See Joel's blog for info about the ACL and APEX.

  • Would the Apple Universal Dock work with any cables?

    Does anybody know if the Apple Universal Dock works with any A/V composite cables for video out from the iPhone or the Nano 3rd gen., or do I have to buy the Apple $50 cables too?

    I have a U2 iPod, and I can connect it to the TV with regular composite (RCA) splitter cables getting video and audio out.... I tried and now I know that I can't use the same cables to get video out of the iPhone or the 3 gen Nano, but I thought that using the Apple Universal Dock I could. So you are saying that even using the Dock I need the 30 pin to get video out?

  • ASP application has problems working with oracle database 8.1.7

    ASP application has problems working with oracle database 8.1.7 through both oracle ODBC driver and Microsoft ODBC driver
    We have an ASP application running on Windows 2000 server, and with 8.1.7 Net8Client and MDAC 2.6 SP1.
    The application worked fine with an Oracle 8.0.5 database.
    After upgrading oracle database to 8.1.7.0.0, our ASP application works fine except when updating the same data record more than once. The application is not saving our updates.
    We tested our application using Oracles ODBC driver v8.1.7.5.0
    and experienced more problems. We had problems just bring up our data entry pages. In either case, we are returned with some 505 errors in our browser, problems with the ASP pages and IIS, the page is not displaying.
    If anyone has some suggestions on how to fix my problem, please advise. Thanks in advance.

    thanks...i saw one article with this approach..but the document did not present the detailed process...do you have one? i am still searching for a good procedure to follow...since it is an old database and focusing/studying old versions like this is a pain in the a**... :(

  • Does INNER JOIN work with Oracle 8i ? (ORA-00933)

    Does INNER JOIN work with Oracle 8i ?
    thanks.

    INNER JOIN syntax is introduced in 9i, it does not exists in 8i. You can rewrite your statement:
    SELECT
    A0.FULL_NAME,A0.MANAGER_ID,A0.DEPT_NO,A0.TOP_DEPT
    FROM
    HR_ORG A0
    , HR_EMP A1

    A1.NAME = 'michael'

  • Does Informatica 7.1 work with Oracle 10g?

    Hi All,
    I have Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1.0) and I just installed Informatica 7.1. While creating a new repository in Informatica Repository Admin Console, I am getting error as:
    "Unable to create the repository content. Make sure that the database connection and the license keys are correct. Check the activity log for more details."
    I confirmed that the license keys are correct. The database connection is also good as I could connect using the same username/password in SQLPlus. The activity log says:

    Please help.

    Hi,
    I found that with Oracle 10g you have to grant all DBA privileges to the repository user. This is not needed in Oracle 9i. Thats why I was getting error.
    Now it works fine.

  • Few errors while working with Oracle 9i developer suite.

    I am facing a few errors working with Oracle 9i developer suite.
    1. while running forms we have to press "ctrl +F11" to execute a query.
    is there any other way of executing a query where the user can do it at a click of button or so? and similarly some way of canceling a query?
    2. how can we run parameterized reports thru a menu in forms?
    3. i had run a query which fetched around 15 records which were populated in 10 text boxes. i cud scroll down to see the records, with the keys but was not able to scroll back up. how can this be avoided or some way thru which we can scroll?
    4. can sessions be created in Oracle forms?
    5. the security feature thru menu roles is not proving efficient. can some1 suggest some way of achieving this user access control?
    hope some 1 can answer my queries soon

    1) execute query in windows is F8, yours is unix. Change the resource-file. You find them in <forms-home>. fmrweb.res is the standard. Save a copy. Copy then the fmrpcweb.res into fmrweb.res. That's all.
    2) start in the menu with an execute_trigger ('UN_MY_REPORT_CALL') a forms-level-trigger in your form. Then you can interact with your report-objects.
    3) page down + up are the keys to scroll. maybe the solution is 1)
    4) yeah, implicit with open_form (... new_session...) but what do you need ?
    5) write your own mechanism. say first, which features do you need

  • How to get exact match when working with Oracle Text?

    Hi,
    I'm running Oracle9i Database R2.
    I would like to know how do I get exact match when working with Oracle Text.
    DROP TABLE T_TEST_1;
    CREATE TABLE T_TEST_1 (text VARCHAR2(30));
    INSERT INTO T_TEST_1 VALUES('Management');
    INSERT INTO T_TEST_1 VALUES('Busines Management Practice');
    INSERT INTO T_TEST_1 VALUES('Human Resource Management');
    COMMIT;
    DROP INDEX T_TEST_1;
    CREATE INDEX T_TEST_1_IDX ON T_TEST_1(text) INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT;
    SELECT * FROM T_TEST_1 WHERE CONTAINS(text, 'Management')>0;
    The above query will return 3 rows. How do I make Oracle Text to return me only the first row - which is exact match because sometimes my users need to look for exact match term.
    Please advise.
    Regards,
    Jap.

    But I would like to utilize the Oracle Text index. Don't know your db version, but if you slightly redefine your index you can achieve this (at least on my 11g instance) :
    SQL> create table t_test_1 (text varchar2(30))
      2  /
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into t_test_1 values ('Management')
      2  /
    1 row created.
    SQL> insert into t_test_1 values ('Busines Management Practice')
      2  /
    1 row created.
    SQL> insert into t_test_1 values ('Human Resource Management')
      2  /
    1 row created.
    SQL>
    SQL> create index t_test_1_idx on t_test_1(text) indextype is ctxsys.context filter by text
      2  /
    Index created.
    SQL> set autotrace on explain
    SQL>
    SQL> select text, score (1)
      2    from t_test_1
      3   where contains (text, 'Management and sdata(text="Management")', 1) > 0
      4  /
    TEXT                             SCORE(1)

    For database access from Java, you will use JDBC.
    For the specifics of the oracle spatial database, you'll have to check the documentation/forum of Oracle.

  • Does ORACLE functions work with Oracle Database 10G

    Hi,
    I am wondering if ORACLE functions work with Oracle Database 10G or is it mandatory to use OCI functions?
    Thanks in advance!

    I was able to run a simple query with ora_* functions using 10g on Windows.

    Hi,
    Can somebody let me know how do i configure active directory with oracle 10g?
    I am trying to do this using configuration wizard but fields are grayed out for me to proceed. It also shows me to prepare active directory to work with oracle first.
    How do i do that?
    Can someone let me know the steps to do so?
    Regards
    Vikas

    Depends on what you want to achieve?
    Usually when you want Enterprise Users (users that are managed by a directory instead of a schema) you will perform other steps than in a scenario where you need some attributes from the AD.
