Hi, everyone. I'm a newbie in linux, so dont punch me .
I was following the beginners guide & after X -config /root/xorg.conf.new got freeze + blackscreen (alt + ctrl + bckspc or alt + Fn dont works).
I have created /X11/xorg.conf & can start X server, but X -config /root/xorg.conf.new or /etc/X11/xorg.conf gives black screen (with signal).
My VGA is HD3850.
Any ideas how i can fix it?

My english is fine (i read well at least) .
At first message i said
I have created /X11/xorg.conf & can start X server...
I =can= start x server --- its mean that startx works fine & i can see 3 windows with clock . And if you mean that i dont want use x -config, then for what all this manipulations with reinstalling was?
Besides "Xorg -configure" & "x -config /etc/xorg.conf" are different things for me, because one create the basic config, while second test this config. So i thought you mean that i have to create it from scratch without using any commands
... Damn.. i just have read english & russian beginner guides. Russian says: "after installing xorg u have to create conf file, using Xorg -configure, then test it with command X -config /root/xorg.conf.new & IF IT WORK - copy to /etc/X11/xorg.conf. I didnt find that in english version .
Well, thank you for your patient & help . I think, that problem is solved (i think - say me if i wrong)
But i still want to know, why x -config /etc/xorg.conf give me that black screen + freeze, so if anybody knows - plz, message me.

Problem with my mac freezing and screen glitching?

I have the 2013 15 inch retina Macbook Pro and I have been having a problem with it lately. Whenever I use safari, my browser is freezing constantly. Its is only when I use safari, not any other applications, such as Microsoft word. Normally, I wouldn't consider this a big issue, but it gets worse. When I don't navigate on my computer and let it rest for a minute or so (while running safari and sometimes other applications) this screen pops up:
I have not dropped my computer, nor done anything to cause any damage to it. It hasn't moved from my desk and I am clueless as to what the problem could be.

Hi patrickk9,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you are continuing to see this type of display distortion on your MacBook, I would suggest working through the troubleshooting steps outlined in the attached article.

Hp pavilion s5715 - computer freezes / black screen after i use it somewhat intensively

Hi,
I recently bought the HP Pavilion s5715 but when I used it even somewhat intensively (playing Left 4 Dead for example) it'll freeze / black screen after a short while (10 minutes or so).
I assume this has to do with overheating, but what would be a good fix for this? And how can I figure out what component overheats?

Killer NIC with ASUS R9 290 black screen issues

Hi there,
I've just set up a gaming system with the B85-G43 Gaming board and an ASUS R9 290 (oc r9290-dc2oc-4gd5) and I've stumbled across a strange problem. Within 5 minutes I get a black screen and the only way to get out of it is to reset my computer. It freezes, but doesn't stop working immediately.
So... I've been testing with W7, W8 and W8.1 and no difference. Until... I shut down my network card and no black screens anymore. Also, when I disable my R9 290 in the device manager there are also no black screens anymore. So I should search it in the combination. I've installed all the newest drivers, but no luck.
Has anyone come across the same issue and how did you solve this? I'm getting really frustrated about it...
Thanks for your help guys!

There is no chance this will work together.
Radeon R9-290 - 31A and a 550W psu minimum
Test stronger power supply. And that might be why you also have issues with other things like in this case, Killer NIC
Ok I've tested your suggestion and replaced the PSU with a cooler master G750M 750 Watt.
Exactly the same problem. I keep getting black screens as soon as I log into windows and the radeon drivers are kicking in. When i disable the radeon drivers: no black screens at all. As soon as i re-enable them: black screen...
Anyone have any other suggestions. Currently I've RMA'd my Asus R9 290. Maybe it'll help but I don't have any confidence....
Thanks!

Problems with pricing in Internet Order screen(CRM E-Commerce 5.0)

Good afternoon !
        We are using CRM 5.0 with CRM E-Commerce 5.0, and we are experiencing problems with pricing in the order screen.
        When we create an order and insert one item at this order, this item is processed and the price is calculated and shown correctly, both in the item and in the table of totals at the right corner(where is the Total Net Price, freight value, etc).
        If we change the quantity of this item, or insert more one item(with the same or other product), the price turns to zero, both in the item(s) and in the table of totals mentioned above. Also, in the table of totals, the freight value remains being calculated, even in this cases when the prices is turned to zero.
        What can be happening in this case ? What can I check to determine the cause and solve this problem ?
        Thank you in advance !
        Wilson

Good afternoon !
        This problem was solved adjusting some parameters of partner determination.

Problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool

Hello. I got a problem with InDesign CC redrawing the screen too slow while using Zoom tool. Sometimes it takes more than a secong to zoom in or out. However InDesign CS6, Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC works just fine. What could be the problem, videocard or something else? Below is my PC configuration: OS Windows 8 Pro (x64); processor Intel Core i7 2600k CPU 3,40GHz; video adapter NVIDIA GeForse GTS 450; monitor NEC PA271W (2560x1440).

Yes it’s a bug. The trick is to select the tool and then left click the photo information strip and hold for a few seconds until you see the windows bar at the top of the screen (not responding)
The lasso tool should then work normally.

Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
No idea why that was suggested.
You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
Check these folders:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
/Library/Input Methods/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/ScriptingAdditions
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
~/Library/Input Methods/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.

I have servlet which working with DB, and in confing file (config.pirms) are all info about connection (drivers, users, passw, etc.). Everything work fine if I hardcoded like:
configFileName = "C:\\config.pirms";I need to avoid such hardcoding, I tryied to use:
configFileName = Pirms.class.getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream ("/prj/config.pirms").toString();but it isn't work.
My config file is in the same directory as Pirms.class (C:\apache-tomcat-5.5.17\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\classes\prj)
Also I tryied BundledResources, it isn't work fo me also.
Can anybody help me to solve this problem? with any examples or other stuff?
Thanks in advance.
Andrew

Thanks, but I am getting error that "non-static method getServletConfig() cannot be referenced from a static context"
Maybe is it possibility to use <init-param> into web.xml file like:
<init-param>
<param-name>configFile</param-name>
<param-value>/prj/config.pirms</param-value>
</init-param>If yes can anybody explain how to do that?
I need to have that file for:
FileReader readFile = new FileReader(configFile);Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the Apple discussion forums.
As Joeuu stated, assuming you don't have an Intel-based MacBook Pro, that means that your PowerBook is PowerPC-based. There are several steps that should get you back on track.
First, reset your power management unit (PMU). Follow directions at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449
Next, repair permissions by running Disk Utility, located in your mac hd, application/utilities folder. Highlight your hard drive and repair permissions.
Did you use the software update function or did you download the update from the Apple support site? In any event, download the combo update 10.4.6 from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1046comboforppc.html Updates through the software update function have recently created some unique 'situations', that use of the combo update have solved.
After the update, repair disk permissions again. This is good housekeeping to do before and after any major software installation.

Problems with my Ipad Mini Freezing/black screen/power off randomly

So I got my Ipad Mini about 3 weeks ago, maybe a little longer. I have had the first gen Ipad since it came out and never really had a problem with it. I wanted to the Ipad mini for a long time cause my buddies have it and I have loved it ever since I saw one. I finally got one and it worked great for the first week. I got home and installed all my apps. The usual, Spotify, Skype, Drafts, Sirius XM radio, and some other note-taking and organizational apps. Then everything was going well for the next week and a half just fine. I was listening to Sirius XM Radio on the app and my Ipad died. I looked at the screen and pressed the middle button to try to get the radio to turn back on but it didn't. I tried soft reseting it which didn't work and then I finally hard reset it. That worked, and made me a little nervous, but I thought maybe it was just the app. So I went home and uninstalled it and then re-installed it. Fast forward about another week and a half and I have been having the random shut downs every once in a while and just today I opened the skype App and everything just froze. I got a blue screen just like the Blue Screen of Death that a PC would get, the only difference was there was no error code on the blue screen. It was jsut a solid blue screen. I did a hard reset again and then tried to open another one of my note taking apps because I had pretty important stuff on it. I wanted to copy it down but before I could the Ipad completely froze up again. I hard reset it again and now it won't even get past the black screen with the silver apple logo in the middle.
Is anyone else having this problem? is there any way to fix it? Does anyone have any idea why my Ipad mini is acting like this? I mean this is kind of ridiculous. I am extremely frustrated and dissapointed with how my Ipad mini is performing.

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
