May 2006 Screenshots
Guidelines
· DO NOT post full resolution screenshots! You can use the "mogrify" command (pacman -S imagemagick) to make a thumbnail of your screenshot:
$ cp screenie.png thumb-screenie.png
$ mogrify -resize 20% thumb-screenie.png
Twenty percent of the original size is great for 1024x768 screenies. You can then upload these images to your server and use the following code to show them on the forum:
[url=http://my.site.com/screenie.png][img]http://my.site.com/thumb-screenie.png[/img][/url]
This displays the thumbnail as a link to the screenie like this:
· If you do not have your own upload space you can upload to http://art.archlinux.org and link your shot here (with text) for discussion
· Several websites also offer free image hosting, of these ImageShack is very popular and does a neat auto thumbnail:
[URL=http://img247.echo.cx/my.php?image=2005053109197fv.png][/URL]
You should use the "Thumbnail for forums (1)" link code that is supplied to post here
· Once the new month begins please do not post new screenies in the old threads.
· If the screenshot has questionable material that might not be safe to view while at work or in a school setting, please post only a link and not a thumbnail, along with a mention of "Not Safe for Work". Posts that do not adhere to this are subject to deletion without notice at any time.

This looks soooo nice.
What editor is that at the bottom, and how did you make its statusbar look like that?
Hey!! It's emacs and I'm using this sick plugin.
That's awesome, thanks for sharing. I'm a vim user, but am going to start working through Practical Common Lisp pretty soon so I might give emacs and that plugin a try! -

Evil never looked so good. It's a netbook. DWM, statuscolors patch, urxvt. I made the wallpaper with gimp (thanks to duckshaft for the idea from last month's hilarious post). I added the icons by modifying the terminus bold 14 font. I think the bold fonts look nice in the status bar. I got the icons from bohoomil and synorgy (Tamsyn2). I believe bohoomil got them from Lokaltog. I use a status script for displaying system info with help from jasonwryan, Procyon, seiichiro0185, and others. Everything is in my configs. You'll need to change your terminal font to this to view the glyphs and to paste them and then you can change back to your normal terminal font afterwards. I didn't rename the font, I just copied it back to /usr/share/fonts/local after I edited it. It's the ter-114b.pcf.gz font. You can get instructions here, https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=92895. The icons look a little small but it still looks ok I think.

Our family iMac, which we got in May 2006, will not start. Whether trying to boot normally or in safe mode, a grey screen appears. Shortly thereafter, a darker grey apple symbol appears, followed by a progress bar below the apple. However, once the progress bar gets about one-twelfth of the way, the computer shuts off. When I put in a Snow Leopard disk and booted from the disk, it allowed me into disk utility, terminal, etc. I can see all our files through the terminal (so the harddrive isn't the issue), and disk utility says it's all fine and dandy, nothing to be fixed. I at least need to boot to back up the computer onto an external harddrive we have, although getting the computer to work for my family again would be optimal. Any ideas?

Here's some of the details:
My computer was purchased in May 2006. Since then it has crashed twice because of overheating. The power cord has been replaced, CPU fans and the HD x2. I have never had any problems with random shut down except 3 years ago it would shut down immediately after the power cord was disconnected.
A few days ago I noticed that whenever I returned from classes the computer would be shut off. The problem: I never shut it down.
I'm unsure if this is somehow connected or not, but a few years ago the cd burner suddenly quit working and then today I tried uncessfully to eject a dvd. It made the sound to eject, even began to eject the dvd but didn't make it out even 1cm before the computer decided jk, and stole it back.
Now the unit is shutting down while I only have firefox running. I restarted the computer and now the light on the power supply is absent, along with the battery % which is normally present.
I know it's 4 years old but nothing quite like this has happened before.
Also, when the unit shuts down, it is not even remotely hot. I've read several places that the heat sink expands (or maybe it was something else) which then causes a short circuit.
Does anyone have any ideas?Do you have all of your firmware updates installed? A firmware update is a little different than a regular update. You would get the firmware update via Software Update, but you would have to manually install it after it downloads... going through a process involving holding down the power button when you start it up... and getting some loud beeps. Have you ever done that?
There was a known problem with random shutdowns in those machines related to a faulty heat sensor... the update was basically to ignore the faulty sensor. -

Submission Date and Time Before 4pm, Friday 1st September 2006
Submission Location LRC, Reg Vardy Centre, St Peters Campus
Java Network Programming (COMM3C)
Assignment 1 (Referred/Deferred) May 2006
Snooker Scoreboard Application
This assignment is designed to consolidate the knowledge of the Java programming language you have gained in the first half of the course and to develop your skills in using basic Java input/output facilities, designing graphical user interfaces and implementing client-server systems.
The Application (70 marks)
You will develop a client/server based scoreboard application which will present and log the activity of a snooker match which may comprise a maximum of 15 frames. Your application must be capable of performing the following functions:
(a) Displaying the current score of each player for the current frame.
(b) Displaying the break for the player currently at the table.
(c) Displaying a record of the sequence of balls potted with their values during each break for each player during the current frame.
(d) Logging, and ultimately storing on a floppy disc in drive A, a record of the sequence of events occurring during a frame. This would include: fouls committed, balls potted with their values and which player potted them for each frame completed. This is intended to provide the definitive record for the frame. Note that, with the exception of player names, match identification and the date, no other information (such as the frame score) should be stored on disc.
(e) Recalling a frame's record from disc. The application must be able to process the data recalled from disc for any chosen frame and provide the following information:
i) the frame score and the highest break for each player,
ii) the number of points conceded as fouls by each player,
iii) the number of times each player visited the table,
vi) the number of times each colour ball (not reds or free balls) was
v) potted in the frame as a whole by each player.
The application must be developed as a client/server system using the loopback address so the client and the server can be run on the same computer.
The client will include the graphical User Interface (GUI) which will facilitate the entry of player names, a method of scoring, a method of displaying all required information and interaction with the server to allow data to be sent to it and recalled from it. See above for detailed requirements.
The server must facilitate the storage to and retrieval from floppy disc of match data and interaction with the client. The server need only be capable of interacting with a single client.
The Application (continued)
In addition to your report (see next page), you must submit a 3.5 inch virus checked floppy disc (CD's are NOT acceptable) which must contain four folders, described below, and nothing else.
Folder 1: The clientSource folder. Must contain all client source files and nothing else.
Folder 2: The clientClass folder. Must contain all client class files and nothing else.
Folder 3: The serverSource folder. Must contain all server source files and nothing else.
Folder 4: The serverClass folder. Must contain all server class files and nothing else.
Any number of client classes may be developed, but the class containing the client's main method must be called client. Any number of server classes may be developed, but the class containing the server's main method must be called server.
All applications must be executable directly from the command prompt window, without the use of an additional Integrated Development Environment such as Eclipse or JBuilder. You must clearly identify which version of Java you have used to develop your application.
Note that it will not be possible for you to include class files corresponding to source files which do not compile correctly. You must, however, include all of your source files in the appropriate folder regardless of whether or not they compile.
You should place the floppy disc in a small envelope and tape it to the front sheet of your report so that no text on the front sheet is obscured. Do not apply tape to the disc itself.
Report Submission Details (30 marks)
Your report must contain the following elements:
(a) a well commented source listing of the application source code (whether functional
or not). Note that sections of code which do not function correctly should be clearly identified by the words "NOT FULLY FUNCTIONAL" and accompanied by a brief hand written explanation of the problem.
(b) a maximum of four screen shots showing the application in action
(c) a conclusion, with clearly marked sub-headings, which must include:
i) a clear statement of the extent of the application's functionality,
ii) a brief explanation of how to use your version of the application,
iii) a description of how you have made the application robust,
iv) any other commentary that you feel is relevant.
Your report must be presented on A4 sheets of paper which must be stapled together at the top left corner to allow access to all of the report�s contents without removing the staple.
If your report is too thick to be secured using a staple, punch a hole in the top left corner and bind the pages together with a treasury tag.
Your report must not be submitted in any type of cover or folder.
Your name, my name and the module number must be clearly displayed on the front sheet of your submission.
No other information, designs or motifs should appear on the front sheet.
Note that all the pages of this assignment must be submitted with your report and must immediately follow the front sheet.
Your report must NOT be submitted electronically and must NOT be included on your floppy disc.
Failure to comply with the requested report and floppy disc submission format will result in the allocation of a significantly reduced mark.

Java Media Framework
Part 1 Research Topics
The Java Media Framework API (JMF) enables audio, video and other time-based media to be added to applications and applets built on Java technology. This optional package, which can capture, playback, stream, and transcode multiple media formats, extends the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) for multimedia developers by providing a powerful toolkit to develop scalable, cross-platform technology.
The aim of this assignment is to develop the skills required by a network systems developer so that they are able to incorporate standard Java components code into their own projects.

Describe how you developed the applet SimplePlayerApplet.java
Describe how you tested SimplePlayerApplet.java.
Use the JB Builder/Designer tool to add two buttons to a Frame to start and stop the AppletPlayer.
Upload the Applet online to your CET website.
Set the access rights so that the Applet will run online via browser.
Test the Applet using a browser.
Provide screenshots to prove the Applet runs satisfactorily online.
Here is a link to view the operation of the JMF Player
http://osiris.sunderland.ac.uk/~cs0jti/NetSys/website/data-archive/COMM3C-JavaNP/JavaMediaFramework/SimplePlayerApplet/classes/
To run the Applet click on SimplePlayerApplet.html
To run this applet in your browser you must install the Java Runtime Environment and the JMF.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/download.html
To run the Applet it is also recommended that a codec pack is installed.
Here is a link to freecodecs.com
http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm
The following codec packs have been found to work satisfactorily with the JMG Applet.
Install either the (i) K-Lite Code Pack or the (ii) XP Codec Pack
Note - Do not install both codec packs at the same time.
Video clips may be found at this URL
http://osiris.sunderland.ac.uk/~cs0jti/NetSys/website/data-archive/COMM3C-JavaNP/JavaMediaFramework/
Tests have shown that the following files are compatible with the JMF Player,
1 - eng.avi
2 - movie.mpeg
3 - hvid.avi

Student Report Structure
1. Write and submit an original report relating to the design of your Java application.
2. Provide a printed report. Your mark will primarily be obtained from your printed report.
3. The contents of the report must be completely original, this includes text, diagrams and any simple examples.
4. Students are required to submit a disk with their JBuilder Java Projects.
5. Students must put their disk in an envelope and attach it their report.
6. If the disk is directly sellotaped to the report their project code will be allocated a mark of 0.
7. The report submitted must not exceed the page count excluding the front sheet and index.
8. Students should print on just one side of the paper.
9. Staple your report at the top left hand corner.
10. Do not use plastic folders or envelopes that must be taken apart and reassembled.
11. Required font type Arial or Times Roman and size 12.
12. To obtain high marks students must present work that has a high technical content with clear diagrams and a good standard of original English (your own work), that is not taken from standard textbooks, papers or websites.
13. Students should provide good references and link them with the text and diagrams in the main body of their report. All text that is extracted and added from another source, such as the web, must be identified using bold italics. The total amount of text added that is not original must not exceed 5% of the total.
14. Penalties will be incurred for the following
No name on disk
No name on report
Disk Sellotaped to report
Report in a plastic folder
JB project is incomplete or will not compile.

I am working in Dreamweaver 8.
I have Alt Text that appears on mouse-over.
The text that appears stays visible for about 5 seconds and
then disappears (which I believe is standard).
I need to know how to extend the time that the Alt text is
visible.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Lynx is text mode. There are a bunch of pages with

First two links:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser)
which in turn leads to:

And I'm not sure, but since OS X is BSD-based, it may already
be
installed, or you may be able to use a BSD version.

In any case, using alt text is an accessibility feature, and
you
should always do it. If you want tooltips, use the title
attribute.
(If you /don't/ want tooltips, use title="".)
Eric Meyer writes on the difference between alt and title:

UpGraded MacBook Hard Drive - but TERMINAL opens at StartUp!!!!
This one is really strange: I replaced a 160gb HD in my MacBook (May 2006 version) with a new Seagate 320 gb HD - by copying everything from the old 160 gb HD to the new 320 gb HD (in a Transcend SATA housing) using SuperDuper! and then put the 320 gb into the MB - perfect---
---except that when I startup I see two strange things: First- TERMINAL has started and I have a screen: hopefully this screenshot via the program InstantShot! shows:
/ScreenShots/SS-090214 at 201501-1.jpg and there is also a folder open: /ScreenShots/SS-090214 at 201514-1.jpg
If you cannot see the screenshots, then I need assistance on putting files/jpg's or other attachments in the Apple discussions --
And I don't think you're seeing anything - but basically the TERMINAL says a bunch of stuff, then WELCOME TO DARWIN and then a location to "security agent". Strange and beyond me, but when I had my 160gb HD I never had that!
Thanks for any comments including how to put a jpg file into an Apple Discussions post so that I can indicate what I'm really seeing.
Regards,
Steve Schulte
Saturday 14 February 2009 at 23:26Thanks for the great eye-opening remarks -- I guess I didn't realize that computers / Macs / Unix / software etc. was just so complex / sophisticated. Again, an eye-opener ---
---but glad to say that my problem doesn't seem to need major work --(fortunately!) - it turned-out that when I now started using my MacBook with the 320 gb HD there were 3 things (2 UNIX files and 1 folder) that somehow appeared in the "LOGIN AT STARTUP" section of the ACCOUNTS preference! I removed them and all is back to 100% OK!
Again - I really appreciate your reply and this opens the door to me learning a lot more about computers!
Regards,
Steve

How can I purge old supposedly deleted data in iCal?
I normally keep my Powerbook in sleep mode with iCal running and everything behaves normall except for the usual slowness at times. However if for any reason iCal has to be closed down on restart it always restores data going back as far as May 2006 that has long been deleted -- I archive anything I want to keep off to a textfile diary so that iCal should always be looking forward. I've found the only way to resolve this each time is to unregister with .Mac the re-register and download correct data from there ... until the next time. (None of the machines using 10.3 exhibit this problem.)
I'm happy to go into the database with a text editor if anyone has clear guidelines on what would need to be done but I don't want to remove entries then to find the database broken.
Lots of clutter also relating to old repeating entries could usefully be hacked out at the same time -- it doesn't show but it does lurk in the database.Further information as I had an unexpected shutdown. The system log shows the following three times at startup:
2006-10-30 20:41:52.817 iCal[403] Impossible to create calendar bundle at path:/Users/ag/Library/Application Support/iCal/Sources/1D1A7F76-FA75-43B4-8C7E-194DAE6FC780.calendar
Any clues as to what is going on? The .ics files in my Library directory after this has happened contain redundant data going back four years but lack lots of recent stuff. I'm tempted to archive them off to a safe place and replace them with file exports from the current calendar as synchronized with .Mac
