Openoffice 3 beta and devel -- what's the difference?

There are now two different ooo3 packages in extra -- devel and beta. What's the difference? Bleeding-edge vs. stability?
It also seems that the beta package takes the user configuration from ~/.openoffice/3/user, whereas the devel package uses ~/.openoffice3/user. Are there other differences?
Can I just move the old files to the new profile?
BTW, the beta package (at least) solves most of the problems I had with the previous ooo3 version (macros not found, etc.) -- thanks!

The beta pkg is the latest recommended "Prerelease" for serious testing leading to the next stable release (beta+release candidates). It is based on forked source trees (some kind of a "branch").
The devel pkg is based on the latest public developement snapshot (like "trunk"). Beyond that there are only custom patches and not yet integrates so called "child work spaces"(cws). It is just a playground for me to follow all changes to keep it compile and for users to test latest features and sure to early find new bugs. I know some Arch users are contributing to OpenOffice.org in various ways.
I try to make it possible to install all varsions along not mixing each other. But afaik we have no control in what direction personal configuration will be stored. So it's always good to backup ~/.openoffice* before starting another version.

Two fields about material in AFKO: PLNBEZ and STLBEZ,what's the difference?

Two fields about material in AFKO: PLNBEZ and STLBEZ,what's the difference?
correct answers will be rewarded.
thanks in advance

Hi,
First of all AFKO is table for Production Order Master Data. So it covers all data related BOM , Routing etc. So In order to distinguish material field related to BOM & Routing these two different fields are there in AFKO table.
PLNBEZ is the field for material assigned to routing operation
STLBEZ is the field for material which is part of BOM
Hope this clears your doubt.

I want to buy an ipad mini Wifi Cellular and use it in Central Asia,so there are two models: A1454 and A1455,what is the difference?

Either will work fine in Central Asia as loge ad the carries support GSM (almost all do).
One of the iPads will only work with the AT&T GSM) network if you are in the USA and the Other with the Virizon network (uses CDMA, not GSM/SIM) if you are in the USA

IWeb Gallery and MobileMeGalleries - what's the difference?

What is the difference between these? So I have two sites gallery.me.com/[YourMemberName]and web.me.com/[YourMemberName]; can they be combined somehow? This is kinda confusing.
So far I find iWeb to less than intuitive and designed poorly. Not the typical Apple easy to use software.

MobileMe Galleries (gallery.me.com......) are created by iPhoto and the iWeb Galleries (web.me.com/.....) are, obviously, created by iWeb.
You can embed iPhoto galleries in an iWeb page using the HTML Snippet button at the bottom of iWeb.
You create an iWeb gallery by selecting an iPhoto album via the Media Browser pane.
They are just created by two different iApps.

X1 Carbon model numbers 34442HU and 3444AZU - what's the difference?

Hi guys,
I'm ready to buy a new X1 Carbon (non-touch version) but I found two model codes for the same price and would like to know if there's any difference between them.
They're model numbers 3444-2HU and 3444-AZU.
I checked Lenovo's Maintenance Manual for this model and they do explain the differences between Dynamic Configure To Order (CTO), Custom Model Variant (CMV) and General Announce Variant (GAV) model numbers, but there's no clue as to what the actual differences might be.
Any help is greatly appreciated as I'm anxious to order my new laptop!
Cheers.

3444AZU = i5-3317U(2.6GHz), 4GB RAM, 128GB Solid State Drive, 14in 1600x900 LCD, Intel HD Graphics, Intel 802.11agn wireless, 1Gb Ethernet, UltraNav, Secure Chip, 4c Li-Ion, Win7 Pro 64

Looks like the 2HU is missing 802.11 wireless. ???

Arch and Slack - What's the difference?

I'm from the Ubuntu camp. I've been using Linux for close to three years now and getting bored. I desperately need something more complicated.
My question is - what's the difference between Arch and Slackware? I've used Slackware in the past. I also tried out Zenwalk recently.

Slackware requires more effort from the user. But you learn quiet a bit as the reward. It takes a different approach for package management. (varies on the package management tools you use). Slackware is less bleeding edge than Arch, as it focuses on a slower release schedule. (to stablise, I guess...But I do note that it pays off, as I hear stories of people upgrading from ver 9 to ver 11 without too much trouble).
Arch strikes a balance between sufficiently difficult enough to learn from, but not too tedious or time consuming to maintain. Its straightforward. The key seems to be pacman and ABS. Personally, it feels like Debian, but faster and more bleeding edge. (With no politics and internal squabbles which affect the date of major releases).
What drove me from Ubuntu/OpenSUSE to Arch, was that both those distros reminded me of Windows. *shivers*
As in, they assumed you want "this and that" enabled and installed by default. So a default install of Ubuntu had alot of stuff I never asked for. (If I wanted HP drivers and Bittorent stuff, I'll install it myself!)
There's also the fact (after trying Debian "Etch"), Ubuntu is really nothing more than Debian with changes to make things easier for the Linux beginner. Some joke this distro as "Ubuntu is an African word meaning: Can't install Debian". (In that respect, they are right)
For me, I enjoy distros like Slackware, Debian, Arch, etc...Because they don't assume I want a bunch of apps I didn't ask for. As well, they don't challenge me but they don't make it really time consuming.
Nothing beats a fresh clean base install, and building a system the way you want!
I mainly stick to Arch because I like the way the project is going.

Java Web Start and DeployDirector: What's the difference?

I am the product manager for DeployDirector at Sitraka (now part of Quest Software). I'm NOT in sales; I'd simply like to provide you with some information.
From talking with DeployDirector users and evaluators, and from my own discussions with the folks at Sun, I have discovered that there is great deal of confusion about the difference between Java Web Start and DeployDirector. I'd like to clarify this by periodically posting some information about the two.
Though the products seem similar in concept, they are designed for different purposes. They both deploy, auto-update and manage the JRE for client-side Java applications, but beyond that, they are quite different.
Java Web Start is ideally designed for applications deployed over the Internet, where application-provider trust is an issue. Why? The security sandbox guarantees that application can do no harm. (There's some good information about Java Web Start and sandbox apps on ScheduleWorld at http://www.scheduleworld.com/itsYourLife.html) Web Start's architecture simply consists of a client piece that interprets a JNLP file. Because of the sandbox and its simplicity, I believe JWS is best used for independent software vendors, independent developers, etc.
Because DeployDirector is ideally designed for internal enterprise applications, it does not enforce the security sandbox. Trust is not an issue here, because internal users typically trust their internal IT group. DeployDirector's architecture consists of both a client and a server piece, which allows us to support more complex deployment and update scenarios (e.g., scheduled and optional updates) and applications management capabilities like rollback, reporting, exception monitoring, authentication/authorization out of the box. All of this is configured through the DeployDirector administration console.
In some situations, DeployDirector may be unnecessary overhead. In other situations, Java Web Start simply does not provide enough capability and building in this into Web Start can be difficult.
If you'd like more information, we have whitepapers and case studies (including one specifically about DeployDirector and JWS) available on our website at http://www.sitraka.com/software/deploydirector/
If you'd like to discuss some of these differences, or if you have questions about DeployDirector, feel free to email me directly. (Or post here, of course.)
Thanks,

Hi Gerald,
Given what I know about your emnity towards DeployDirector (which is clearly illustrated in this thread: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?thread=348061&forum=38&message=1446155 that was evidently a response to this article: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-11-2002/jw-1122-autoupdate.html) I'm going to take a (pardon the expression) "don't feed the trolls" approach here.
I'm simply re-iterate that JNLP, and its implementations such as Web Start and OpenJNLP, are designed for a very different set of users that DeployDirector. The differences in functionality between the two products reflect that.
The enterprise has different requirements in a deployment mechanism for its internal, critical applications than software vendors and independant developers. DeployDirector addresses the requirements of the enterprise. Frankly, most of our recent customers only chose to buy the product after initially rejecting it and (unsucessfully) attempting to use JNLP and Web Start. Sometimes people only learn the hard way: different users have different requirements which are suited to different tools or technologies.

T5400 and 5200 What's the difference?

I previously had the old 2200 5.1 speakers but sold them to a relative and am looking to get some more speakers. Aside from the t5400 series having more power, I can't seem to find something telling me what the difference is. Anyone with knowledge able to give me some advice?
BW

Bjwolfe,
Outside of power, the biggest difference between the 5200's and the T5400's is the speaker design. The design used for the front three speakers on the T5400's is a two way speaker design. This means that the front three speakers contain both a high range tweeter and a midrange driver. This gives a major improvement to the high end sound reproduction.

What is the difference between ws_upload and gui_upload

what is the difference between ws_upload and gui_upload
what is the difference between ws_download and gui_down load
pls tell briefly

Hi Kuamr,
UPLOAD and DOWNLOAD, the function modules used until now are not part of the standard set of ABAP commands. They are used to display the file interface on the presentation server. UPLOAD and DOWNLOAD are not compatible with USs and have been replaced by GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD.
The new function modules, GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD, have an interface that also allows you to write Unicode format to the local hard drive. For a description of these interfaces, refer to the documentation for each function module, available under SAP Easy Access " Development " Function Builder " Goto " Documentation.
Instead of using the function modules, you can use the static methods GUI_UPLOAD and GUI_DOWNLOAD of the global class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.
Hope this resolves your query.
Reward all the helpful answers.

In Cisco IronPort WSA, what is the difference of an Access Policy, and an Identity?

Hi Everyone,
I am currently setting up a custom access for a particular subnet.
What I did is to create a new identity for them, then allowed only specific URL categories for them. Note that the subnet is already allowed to access the internet through Global access policy.
What will be the difference if I rather created a new Access Policy for the subnet?
And technically, what's the difference of an Access Policy and an Identity?

This was not my question. I asked if using the Marginal in Printing will you have a frame around the image?
I think you're confused about which thread you are posting to. "Wully bully" started this thread by asking about identify plates and watermarks, and I replied to Wully bully's post.
Nevertheless, your question too about printing is best asked in the main LR forum, not here.

What is the difference of using JavaBean and regular classes?

Experts,
I am new to JavaBean(not EJB), and wondering what is the difference of using JavaBean for JSP page compared with using regular Java class?
I know there are Bean tags which save some lines, what else?
What does "serialization" mean compared with "not serializable"?
thanks very much.

No.
A JavaBean is a regular JavaClass that:
1) implements java.io.Serializable
2) Its data members are private, and its data is accessed via getters and setters. You must define the getters and setters. Getters retrive the property, and must be in the format:
public PropertyType getPropertyName()
for most cases. The exception is when the PropertyType is a boolean, in which case you use:
public boolean isPropertyName()
Setters assign values to the property, and are in the form:
public void setPropertyName(PropertyType propValue)
3) There is also a PropertyChangeEvent model that needs to be followed.
A marker interface has no methods you need to implement. It just marks the class as supporting certain operations. In the case of Serializable, it means the class can be written to be an ObjectOutputStream for persistant storage.
As far as an example of JavaBean persistance, take a search on the java.sun.com site for Serializeable
Also, take a look at this: http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Beans/beans02/
It concentrates mainly on gui component beans, but not all beans need to be gui parts... There are other pages to look at, but I can't find them at the moment, and I have to run...

What's the difference between the ssd and hd?

I'm in the process of buying a Mac book pro but wanted to know and understand What's the difference between the ssd and hd?

DDHeadley wrote:

HD = hard drive, several metal platters stacked and data read/written magnetically.
Pro's - less expensive and higher capacity of storage. Can scrub the drive of unwanted data. Unlimited write capability.
Con'- bit rot can cause data and operating system to not be as reliable, mechanical moving parts means you can't move the machine while it's on.
SSD = Solid State Disk, basically memory chips that can store data in a permanent fashion without power (like Random Access Memory needs)
Pro's - faster read/write speeds in most cases. Shock resistant makes them ideal for portable uses.
Con's - new technology issues, one cannot securely erase the data on them, unless it's ground into a fine powder. Limited write capability means they will wear out eventually like USB thumb drives do. Wear leveling (TRIM) is used to spread the writes evenly across the drive to maximize it's lifespan.
If you can respect the machine, take care of it and not move it while it's on, or need to scrub the drive of unwanted data, or need higher capacity of storage without paying a fortune for a very large SSD, then a HD makes a lot of sense.
It really comes down to your privacy, do you want a machine you cannot delete files off of?
Do you want to carry around a machine that has all your dirty secrets etched in it for anyone with the right software to uncover?
A computer is a personal machine, why it's called a Personal Computer. We all do things we sometimes are later ashamed of and want to erase all memory of it.
Can't do that with a SSD, it knows all and you will be forced to destroy the machine to rid it of the unwanted data.

"gpasswd -R" vs "gpasswd -r": what is the difference?

There are two special options to disallow users which aren't in a particular group to execute newgrp command: -r and -R.
What is the difference, if any, between them?
Both works absolutely equally for me.
Thanks.

-r
Remove the password from the named group. Only group members will be allowed to use
newgrp to join the named group.
-R
Restrict the access to the named group. Only group members will be allowed to use newgrp
to join the named group.
