Question: Is there any project of porting Fedora's multiseat function?

Hello. This is my first post in the Arch Linux Forums and hope I'm not breaking any rule. I looked around using the search tool but couldn't find any post covering exactly my question, so, here I go!
I've been using Arch for some time now and I love it. I own an internet cafe which uses fedora 17 to run a multiseats environment using several Plugable USB 2.0 Universal Laptop Docking Stations. So far so good; however I couldn't help but craving for that feature [multiseat] in my favorite distro: Arch. My question would be, is there any project working on porting/incorporating this feature into Arch?
Unfortunately I'm not good when it comes to programming, but I'll be more than happy and willing to help with the testing if necessary [as I said, I own several Docking stations].

Hi. Thanks for the responses.
drcouzelis:
In my own words: Multiseating refers to the Operating System's ability of allowing several users to run several sessions [terminals] out of the same machine at the same time without interfering with each other.  Basically you could turn 1 computer into many.
I was refering to the Fedora's ability to handle multiseating using the Docking Stations out of the box.
I like to keep my system updated with the latest software, therefore I'd rather have Arch as my Linux choice for my internet cafe since Fedora is not a rolling release.
I've tried the multiseat functionality in Arch with an installation of Arch [using the latest 64 bits running systemd, kde fully installed, and one plugable Docking Station]. All I got was a green screen when I attached a monitor to the Docking Station [which -as I read somewhere- it's a good thing somehow; meaning it detects the device but requires further tweaking to get it to work].
I guess I'll play with some tweaks a little to kill some time and learn by trial and error.

    I have a question is there any way I can put music from my iPad to my iPod? Some one said to me yes by using a DRM

    Would those work if I am using the 4g wifi hotspot on the ipad to get the music onto an ipod touch?  I am willing to give up third party music if this would work. Just not sure if it would work since the 4g wifi has that 50mb restriction

  • Is there any way to eliminate the locked file function in iWork apps?

    Hi, I recently added Lion to my Mac. Is there any way to eliminate the "locked file" function. I do not use iCloud or Time Machine on my Mac. Thanks. Bob

    I don't use Time Machine either but the option for this function is in the Time Machine options.
    Open System Preferences > Time Machine
    Click 'Options'
    The bottom option should be about auto-saving. To stop applications from locking documents, uncheck the box. To extend the peiod before the document is locked, select the appropriate time from the drop-down menu.
    Hope that;s what you wanted!

    Don't think so.  The point of the offline reading list is to allow you to read it later without going online.  It has to download the content to make this possible.

  • Question:-Is there any way to disable the installation location/folder of da Adobe AIR Application?

    Is there any way to disable the installation location/folder of the Adobe AIR Application or can we skip that part automatically?

    xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"  is the spark mx address, which is completely different than the original 2006 mx library. 
    The thing is:  I love AIR, hate spark, loved the 2006 pre-spark functionality.  It is so much more convenient and user friendly.  Given the choice between having the display seperate from the  processing, or having it be convenient and easy  to work with, I choose the later option.
    For the most part it seems like the AIR api is like a layer on top of the spark - flex system..   I would like to be able to over lay the same AIR functionality on top of the the old system....
    Possible or no?

  • Are there any project analysis tools to optimize a project?

    So, our devs use Coverity (http://www.coverity.com) to scan their code to look for problem areas they can refactor. My boss asked me if there are something out there like that but for documentation projects. I know RH offers the Tools | Reports, but I'm worndering if there are Adobe or 3rd party tools out there that can analyze a RH documentation project in the background to provide you with a list of items to fix or improve. I'm also looking for something that checks a documentation project for duplicate paragraphs, that we could then rewrite as snippets.
    For example, MadCap's Flare has an Analyzer tool: http://www.madcapsoftware.com/products/analyzer/
    Is anyone aware of tools like this that works with RH projects?

    I am not aware of any tool that does what you want with RoboHelp but I wonder if there are such tools more readily available for Word. If there are, you could generate a printed document and work with that.
    Please follow this link and submit a feature request. Make sure you mention Flare has such a tool, albeit a chargeable extra.

  • I can't reset my security questions, is there any way to fix this?

    I can't remember the answers to my original questions and want to reset them so I can buy music. However, every time I reset them, they just revert back to the old ones. I hit save and it tells me that everything's been set, but if I log out then log back they've reverted back to the old questions. I've tried to contact costumer service through the link given on iTunes but the page just unlessly loads after selecting iTunes, so I have no idea what to do.
    Any help would be appreicated, thank you.

    You can contact the Account Security team by following these steps:
    Please navigate to:
    https://expresslane.apple.com/
    Choose:
    iTunes > iTunes Store
    Then for Topic choose
    Account Management > Lost or Forgotten Apple ID password (any concerns regarding security questions also fall under this category)
    Choose Continue
    You will be given the options to Talk to Apple Support Now or Call Apple Support Later, please choose the option that works best for you. If the hold time is long, you might only have the option to talk with them later.
    If outside the US or Canada, and your country has Apple Phone Support, you must call and ask for The Account Security Team. They will then ask some security questions. If resetting your Security Questions, you must have a Credit Card on file so they can reset your Password First, then they can help reset your security questions.  You should be able to add a credit card via iTunes or appleid.apple.com> Billing. <-- Very important, or they can nto assist you!!!

  • Stickies question - is there any backup

    Hi everyone:
    I am wondering if anyone knows if there is a place I can retrieve past information from Stickes notes (the app, not the widget). I inadvertently cut-and-pasted a set of email addresses insteady of using copy-and-paste, and they are not available in the message I pasted into because I was using BCC.
    Thanks for any help.

    Enqueue Mechanism
    The Oracle server maintains all locks as enqueues. The enqueue mechanism can keep
    track of:
    • Users waiting for locks held by other users
    • The lock mode these users require
    • The order in which users requested the lock
    If three users want to update the same row at the same time, all of them get the shared
    table lock, but only one (the first) gets the row lock. The table locking mechanism
    keeps track of who holds the row lock and who waits for it.
    You can increase the overall number of locks available for an instance by increasing
    the parameters DML_LOCKS and ENQUEUE_RESOURCES. This may be necessary
    in a parallel server configuration.

  • Question: is there any way to get entity class in JPQL query

    Hello, I'm using J*dev 11gR1 adn JPA with EclipceLink*.
    Let's consider such example
    @Entity
    @Table(name="ANIMALS")
    @Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.TABLE_PER_CLASS)
    public class Animal implements Serializable {
    @Entity
    @Table(name = "CATS")
    public class Cat extends Animal implements Serializable{
    @Entity
    @Table(name = "DOGS")
    public class Dog extends Animal implements Serializable{
    }I need to build a query which will be translated to something like this SQL query:
    SELECT * FROM CATS
    UNION ALL
    SELECT * FROM DOGS
    ORDER BY ...So I need a way to query not all child entities from DB.
    P.S. Yes, I know, that I can execute query on panent entity (select a from Animal a order by ...) and then loop throught the result list and delete not needed objects OR I can execute some queries on needed child entities and then merge them into one list and sort it, BUT both ways it will be much slower than generetion of needed SQL query straight to DB.
    I know, that in Hibernate's HQL there is a way to build such query with something like this:
    select * from Animal a where a.class = Cat or a.class = Dog

    In JPA 2.0 which we are implementing right now you will be able to execute queries like:
    SELECT a FROM Animal a  WHERE TYPE(a) IN (Cat, Dog)The next draft of the specification contains a section which describes the feature in detail and provides more examples of its use:
    4.6.17.4 Entity Type Expressions
    An entity type expression can be used to restrict query polymorphism. The TYPE operator returns the
    exact type of the argument.I have also been working with some customers on similar capabilities using the current versions of EclipseLink. The examples are documented here:
    http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Development/JPA/QueryDownCast
    I hope this helps,

  • Question: Are there any advantages for stored procedure for data block?

    There are two ways to create data block:
    1. query table or view or
    2. stored procedure.
    After 9i, AS has a PL/SQL compiler. Do we still see the advantage of using stored procedure, as claimed that it is faster due to the stored procedure always compiled?
    Thank you in advance.
    Jimmy

    Jimmy,
    The "fast" side is not the only one benefit of stored procedures.
    Of course, you can use the BULK COLLECT functionality which is not available into Forms.
    But stored procedure is a good way to perform the following actions:
    complex handeling of datas (insert, update or delete that generate severals actions on other tables).
    externalization/centralisation of business rules.(separate the design and functionnal work).
    more secutity, because you can prohibit manipulation of datas outside of the procedures.
    You can change the rules without modify the forms.
    etc.
