Openbox always starts with only 1 desktop

can anybody tell me what's wrong with the following rc.xml entry? I always get only 1 available desktop on startup, and then have to use the openbox gui configurator to tick up the number to 5 to enable them (then I tick back down to 4).
<desktops>
<number>4</number>
<firstdesk>1</firstdesk>
<names>
<name>1</name>
<name>2</name>
<name>3</name>
<name>4</name>
</names>
<popupTime>600</popupTime>
</desktops>

When my xml edits don't work as I expect, I always check with xmllint or I use an online xml validator such as this one from w3c: http://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_upload

Satellite L500-1ek - setup system always starts with 800x600

I have new Satellite L500-1ek notebook with Windows 7.
Whatever screen resolution I setup system always starts with 800x600. And not only after restart but even when I logout my profile and login again.
More: I use also external monitor. I can have mirror of my laptop screen on the monitor or only display on monitor but whatever I do I cannot have extended screen.
When I try to set it up I'm simply ignored by driver.
So I tried to install newest driver. I downloaded it from Toshiba site but it never installed saying me that my system did not meet minimum requirements.
What to do now?
Marek

Hi Marek,
> I downloaded it from Toshiba site but it never installed saying me that my system did not meet minimum requirements.
As far as I know your notebook is equipped with Intel graphic card and so you are installing the latest display driver from Toshiba website. Is this right?
Well, I have to say that I had the same issue on my Satellite U400 that is also equipped with Intel graphic card. The solution for this problem was pretty easy: I installed the driver via device manager. There select the graphic card, make a right click on it and select Update Driver. In next windows choose the advanced installation where you can choose the driver directory yourself. After the installation make a restart and thats all! :)

[SOLVED] XFCE always starting with the US keyboard

Hi guys.
Recently I came back to XFCE and I have one problem: it always starts with the keymap set to US. I have to manually change it to PL (which I need) with setxkbmap. Also, when I'm using the panel plugin I cannot choose any keymaps other than the currently selected.
What can I do about it?
Last edited by JeremyTheWicked (2008-10-12 21:49:56)

The way I deal with the multimedia keys is that
1) figure out what keycodes they generate (run 'xev' and do some presses)
2) assign the correct name to them via xmodmap
maybe 3) use xbindkeys to let them do what they should do (but this is probably not necessary, DEs like xfce should be able to act just based on having a correct name assigned to the keypresses)
the xmodmap stuff:
~/.xmodmaprc wrote:keycode 144 = XF86AudioPrev
keycode 153 = XF86AudioNext
keycode 162 = XF86AudioPlay
keycode 164 = XF86AudioStop
and then have 'xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc' executed at X start (again, some DEs do this automatically, some don't)
But! maybe figuring out the correct option for your keyboard might render all of the above steps unnecessary. I don't know a good place to look for the options, except closely inspecting the contents of /usr/share/X11/xkb - there's a lot of stuff, but that's for instance where I found out the possible variants for the us keyboard.

Tetris always starts with the same blocks

Has anyone else noticed that the first game in Tetris after launching it always starts with the same blocks? For me, it always gives me the red "Z" block, the yellow square, the green "Z", orange "L", purple "T", blue straight block, blue "L", and so on. Every time. Without fail. And although my second game starts with something different, all second games always start with the same sequence too (purple "T", orange "L", yellow square, green "Z", red "Z", and so on).
Seems to me like whoever wrote the random number generator used by Tetris did a very poor job. Hopefully EA creates a version 1.1 to fix this, and Apple makes the update available for free to people who already bought Tetris. I find it hard to believe that something so obvious made it past QC.
PowerMac G5 Dual 1.8 Mac OS X (10.4.5) 5G iPod 60GB

Definitely agree about the need for a 1.1 update. The random generator and also the fact that, on my iPod at least, if I am listening to music and playing at the same time, whenever there is a change in tracks, the game locks up for a few seconds and I can't see the piece and it ends up dropping some place unexpected. This desparately needs to be fixed as many a 12th level game has been ruined because of this.

Mail app always starts with the standard account.

iPhone 5s
iOS 7.1.2
Mail app always starts with the standard account.
Can´t it start in the mail overview, where all different mailboxes are shown.
iPhone 4 did it..
Opens in standard account:
Should open in MailBox-Overview: (here just one mailbox)
7.1.2

After some searching I have found a solution. I had to delete the contents of the following folder:
~/Library/Mail/myemailaccount/.OfflineCache/
Note: replace "myemailaccount" with the appropriate folder on your computer that represents your e-mail account. Once I deleted the contents of this folder (there were 2 files), and restarted Mail, there were no problems.
Hope this helps a few people in the future!

My PC won't start with only one push of the start button.

hi guys my pc won't start with only one push of the start button. It takes me 1 to 10 pushes for it to start. I encountered this main bios error once when my pc started but it fixed on its own. What could be the problem?

Hi
The problem can be fixed by running a latest BIOS Update on your unit or if it is a mechanical issue it could be the power button itself.. you can call HP tech support if the notebook is still in warranty.. they'll be able to help you.
Hope this helps.

Always mirrors (won't start with extended desktop)

Since upgrading to leopard, I have the following problem: Whenever I plug my MacBook into a particular external monitor (a projector with 800 X 600 resolution), it automatically goes into mirroring mode - even if I last used it in extended desktop mode. I can then turn off mirroring, but all my windows have shrunk (to fit 800 x 600) and have moved. I leave mirroring off when I unplug - but then the next time I plug in, the same thing happens. I want it to start in extended desktop mode, and not automatically enter into mirroring mode. Any ideas?

Eth0 always starts with rc.d/network start

Here is the relevant bit from my rc.conf
lo="lo 127.0.0.1"
eth0="eth0 192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.5"
#eth0="dhcp"
eth1="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 eth1)
but eth0 always starts. I am using a wireless card on eth1 to connect to the web and eth0 is a builtin NIC - it's really annoying!

dibblethewrecker wrote:um - as you can see from my rc.conf - that isn't gonna work for me!
I saw your "rc.conf". What I'm trying to explain to you is an easy sol'n. You seem to have you integrated NIC disabled anyway. What I offered was what worked for me. Of course, this was before hotplug was being used, so I don't know how that adds into the mix...
I guess your post was more of a "concern as to why this is occuring" than a sol'n. What I meant, in case of confusion was this:
MODULES=(...,<wireless NIC>,<integrated NIC>...)
eth0="dhcp"
eth1="eth1 192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.5"
INTERFACES=(lo eth0 !eth1)
I believe that's what gave me a eth0 only interface, with no eth1, and eth0 was my wireless NIC. I don't think you'll have to worry what hotplug is doing that way. I may be wrong...

Sequence should always start with 1

Hello,
i am using a sequence in a Mapping. But by starting the mapping the second or 3rd time the sequence did not begin with the value 1 but with the last value + 1 of the sequence in the 1st mapping.
Is it possible to use a sequence so that it always begins with the value 1 everytime you start the mapping?
Regards,
vinzi

I'm not sure I quite understood what you want, lemme get this straight:
U have a sequence named SEQUENCE and you use it in 3 different mappings. When you finish run the first, you want it to restart counting?
If so, then, I'm afraid you'll have to re-deploy the sequence. But you don't have to do it in Control Center.
You may create a stored procedure that creates the sequence using 'EXECUTE IMMEDIATE' facility. Then, use it as a pre mapping process. It would be something like:
-- This one you'd use in the pre-mapping process
create or replace procedure Create_seq as
begin
execute immediate 'create sequence bla bla bla bla';
end;
-- This one you'd use in the post-mapping process
create or replace procedure drop_seq as
begin
execute immediate 'drop sequence bla bla bla bla';
end;
Then, using this procedures in each mapping you want to use the same sequence. That should be enough.
Good luck

I can't get Firefox to start with a blank page, which I always managed to do up till 17.0, buy now it always starts with the last page.

I have been using Firefox for several years, and know how to set my Home Page by going to Tools/Options/General, and selecting the appropriate tab.
However, since the last update to 17.0.1, It now always starts as it was when I shut down, including multiple windows if I had them open. It is so irritating that I am considering changing my browser.

Always starting with a project...

Hi!
When I start GarageBand 10 it always starts up an old project that I´ve saved and closed!
Can I get this to stop and how?
I want it to start the program without choosing any project.
Regards
H

If you hold down the alt/options key while launching Garageband, it will not open a previous project, but present the File Chooser dialog or simply the main menu bar.
Alternately, you can ctrl-click (or right click) the Dock icon and select from the list of recent projects.

Migrate an application from x86 to x64. Compiling succeed, but can not run. Always start with error 0xc0000142.

platform: windows server 2008 r2; ide: visual studio 2005 (installed the x64 development kit)
Hi, everyone.
I want to migrate my application to x64 platform from x86/win32 platform. I added x64 platform in visual c++ 2005 option, and compiled successfully. But the application can not start. When start it always pop up an alert dialog saying "The application
was unable to start correctly (0xc0000142). Click OK to close the application." Meanwhile, it's worked well when I use win32 option to compile.
Someone says online, the dependency walker can detect some root cause. I used it, and found that IEFRAME.dll may be had some problem because when I double click it, pop up a dialogue saying "Errors were detected when processing "c:\windows\system32\IEFRAME.DLL".
See the log window for details.". But I can not resolve this issue.
Please help me.

If I had to try to solve this:
I'd start by verifying that I can compile, and run a skeleton x64 Windows app. Just create one from scratch using the Windows Application project template, add the x64 platform, build it and run. Hopefully all goes well.
If that works, then I'd try trimming down your app to just its essentials. If you're not using revision control software, back up your projects now, because once you find the problem by hacking and slashing, you'll want to revert so you can make a
clean fix.
The first thing to do here is just put a return 0; in the beginning of WinMain to see if it's code at runtime that's causing the problem or something about the linking and dependent library loading.
I'm guessing that, even with return 0, you will still have a problem, which would suggest that you are perhaps still linking against a 32-bit version of a library or something like that. Start removing dependencies or references or libraries until
you can build and run your stripped-down application. Eventually you'll find the one reference/library that causes it to fail to load.
You can also check the debug window to see if some modules loaded correctly and others not.
You can also run
Process Monitor (sysinternals) to see which dll it was accessing when it failed to load.
Make sure you revert any changes you made while hacking and slashing, then make your platform fixes, and have another go.
I suspect that eventually you'll find that you've added a link library that is a 32-bit .lib or a component that references a 32-bit library. You'll have to make sure you specify the x64 .libs for whatever libraries you are using. Sometimes this
means that you have to change you additional linker directories to point to the x64 libs instead of the x86/win32 libs. Be very careful about your platform when specifying linker libraries, directories, etc.
It could also be that the x64 version of a dll has been copied to your output folder rather than the x86 version, assuming they have the same name. You'll have to sort out your SDKs and get the right .libs and .dlls.
Make sure that your settings and property pages are set correctly for Release and Debug, and for x86 and x64.

Ipad music app always starts with genius mixes

I am usind an iPad mini 16GB with iOS8 running the newest version. Every time I start the music app it fires up with the genius mix overview and not my last selection, e.g. artists listing. I subscribed to iTunes match with genius enabled.
I clearly recall iOS7 not acting like this. So my question is: Is this a bug or a feature or am I missing something.
THanks in advance, Sascha

Hi Caph1,
If you are having issues with your iPad's Music application always launching to the genius mix screen, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

IMac is starting with only 2 cpus

Hello,
Two weeks ago my iMac started restarting by itself. It couldn't start the OSX, but restarting just before the login screen. I was investigating this issue for a whole day until I found that if I set boot arguments to CPU=1 it starts just fine.
Today, I decided to try if it'll fail if I choose more than 1 cpu and so it started well with 2, but it wont with 4.
Does it mean 1 or 2 of my processor cores are dead? Is it even possible to have dead cores in a processor or it seems to be a configuration issue?
P.S.: My CPU is 2,7 GHz Intel Core i5 on Mid 2011 iMac
Thank you!

Okay, so I just tried and it seems that I can start 3 cores:
