Replace libgl provider package without nixing my system

I need to force replace nvidia-libgl with mesa-libgl on my desktop machine but I get a dependency issue from packages that list nvidia-libgl as a dep. I know that they function perfectly with mesa-libgl as that's what's set up on my laptop so logically it must be possible to switch the packages without having to recursively remove everything that requires a libgl provider.
Is there a simple way to do this via pacman that I haven't spotted?

I figured it might be something like that. It's curious because on my laptop right now I have the nvidia-ck-sandybridge package installed (from graysky's linux-ck repo) which lists nvidia-libgl as dependency despite the fact that the mesa-libgl package is installed instead and yet pacman doesn't seem to have an issue with that (presumably because they provide libgl).
UPDATE: I think I've spotted the issue, bumblebee (for nvidia optimus based laptops) provides nvidia-libgl thus satisfying the dependency on my laptop whereas my desktop doesn't need bumblebee.
This is kind of annoying because I think the nvidia-libgl update recently broke mono applications and I want to swap it out for mesa-libgl to test my theory.

How to use a provider code without installing its package?

Hi,
I got a problem here.
I found a security provider package named "cryptix" is what I need in my own software.
My question is how to distribute it with my software?
my app is a aaplet and I couldn't suppose all user machine have been installed this package before try my app.
It is a simple question, I know.
Thanks you all.
greg

You are writing an Applet right? If so you have a jar file that is downloaded when the applet runs that contains the applet code. You simply need to add an archive tag to your applet's HTML file which includes the cryptix jar. If you are using the Plug-in then you can set that jar to cache.
The problem will be registering the cryptix provider with the security manager. I am not sure about this but I would imagine calling Security.addProvider() would throw an exception while running in an Applet sandbox.
maybe I'm wrong but I would check before you get to far!

Package Exporting to File System

I am exporting the package to the file system from the production. When exporting the default is showing as 'Encrypt Sensitive data with user key'. Does this have any impact when I open it for development? Should I go with 'do not save sensitive data'
option?

I am exporting the packages from the production to the file system and providing to the developer
If you're giving it to others then whatever you do they wont be able to see sensitive information used by you insidepackage. In that case if you want them to open and run packages you should ask them to manually fill in those details like pointing to their
development server and databases, change variable values etc.
Another option is to create a configuration inside package storing all sensitive information and store it in a XML file (.dtsconfig extension). Then edit the file to change production values with corresponding development values ie development server, database
etc. Then sent them the file also along with package and tell them to put file in folder the package points to inside configuration settings. Then they would be able to open and run package with development environment settings without adding anything manually.

No packages applicable to your system were found after service?

Hello
I got my system back from Lenovo a week ago after getting some service done. As far as I know the motherboard was not replaced but I cannot get any system updates. I did a restore to the factory default system and I cannot get any updates for a week now, only the message: No packages applicable to your system were found. In the recovery menu my system is listed as INVACTO and the serial number is blank. The bottom of my system lists product ID 2746CTO. I do not remember if the serial number was blank before I sent it in but it is now. ThinkVantage toolbox also lists product: INVACTO, serial: blank, and warranty: Could not be determined. Could my serial number had been erased and my system model changed while it was at Lenovo? Could this be the reason I'm getting no updates?
Thanks in advance for any help.
John

Hi,
open registry and Check the following registry keys (or similar)
HKLM\HARDWARE\ACPI\DSDT\LENOVO\
HKLM\HARDWARE\ACPI\FADT\LENOVO\
HKLM\HARDWARE\ACPI\RSDT\LENOVO\
They should be in the form of your model number without the hyphen and not TP-xx___
it worked with my R61 8919Y16
Also check following registry too:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lenovo\System Update\Preferences\UCSettings\RunTime
whether the key called "MTM" contains your full MTM number.
Let me know, how does the registry looks by you.
You can also check following tests, that will show you the MTM, that is detected by System Update:
Go to :
%ProgramFiles%\Lenovo\System Update\egather\
- start the "IA.exe" and a new .xml file will be created. The name of this file will contain the MTM of your system, that is detected.
Cheers

[SOLVED]What are provider packages??

Hello! Well, sometimes, when I am installing software on my Linux I am greeted with a message such as the following:
warning: provider package was selected (foo provides bar)
Well, my doubt is as simple as the topic states: what are these 'provider packages' and why is a warning issued for them? Is it telling me that I am actually installing another package rather than the one being shown to me? In the example above, package 'foo' would not be installed, as it would instead serve only as a provider of package 'bar', which would be the one actually being installed on my system. Is it anything like that at all? Can't seem to find any info about provider packages on the net...
Thanks for the consideration...

A "provider package" is just a package which satisfies the dependencies of another package.
Examples:
Java packages require something that can run Java code and thus depend on "java-runtime", which is not an actual package. The package "jre", which is Sun's Java Runtime Environment, provides "java-runtime" and thus satisfies the "java-runtime" dependency. "openjdk6" also provides "java-runtime" and thus satisfies the dependency because it can be used instead of Sun's JRE to run Java code.
The package "gnu-netcat" provides "netcat" to satisfy dependencies on "netcat". This was probably to avoid breaking dependencies due to a package name change (netcat -> gnu-netcat) but it might also be to enable other implementations of netcat (e.g. foo-netcat).
The general purpose is to allow different (competing) packages to satisfy the same dependencies or to avoid dependency breakage when a package name is changed.
In your case, "foo" satisfies the dependencies that another package expected to find in "bar", which may or may not exist as a package. Which package is actually chosen depends on repo order. In the case of "java-runtime", openjdk6 is in [extra] and jre is in [community], which usually means that openjdk6 is installed.

How do i uninstall applications and their packages without littering trashcan

how do i uninstall applications and their packages without littering trashcan.
                                                                                                   *sincerly nube*

OK. That wasn't clear at first. See the following:
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper 2.0.1
    2. AppDelete 3.2.6
    3. Automaton 1.50
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash 1.8.2
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1

Downgrading the kernel without breaking my system

Hello,
A few months ago, I was using a old (2011) version of the kernel, because of regressions in WiFi support and in sound quality. But when /lib became a symlink and the glibc update came ( http://www.archlinux.org/news/the-lib-d … a-symlink/ ), my system was broken, and I had to upgrade to a more recent version of the kernel using a LiveCD.
So, is there a way to downgrade safely to an older version of the kernel without breaking my system?
Thanks in advance.

/lib is a symlink... what happens if you try to install the older kernel?
Alternatively, re-build the package of an older kernel. (Though I doubt re-building is necessary, I offer it as a possibility.)

ThinkVantage System Update - "There are no applicable packages found for your system"

QuestionWhen running TVSU, I am getting a system notification of "There are no applicable packages found for your system"
AnswerThis issue has occured at various times, and may more commonly occur when TVSU updates itself. At the time this article was originally written, the symptom was noted by some customers after updating from version 4.01.0010.
After updating System Update, if no packages are found for your system, please try the following to uninstall and manually reinstall the current version of system update.
Click Start
Click Control Panel
Click Programs and Features
Select System Update
Click Uninstall
Reboot
Download latest version of ThinkVantage System Update
Install it and reboot
Run ThinkVantage System Update and the list of updated drives will now populate correctly.

There are a few comments here that have come in over 3 years...
1) Please update to the latest version of TVSU appropriate for your version of operating system. TVSU should update itself, but please check the reported version when TVSU starts up against the most recent version available to download on support.lenovo.com. Uninstall, download the newer version, and re-install if it does not auto update and you have confirmed a newer version.
2) From time to time, there are issues with the TVSU catalog and updates may not be reported as available for a specific system. Lenovo software teams do their best to ensure the update catalog is current for all supported models, but in the event that you find no updates for your system and believe this is in error, please manually check several of the principle driver versions in device manager and compare with the versions available for manual download on the support site for your model. If later versions of drivers and BIOS are available on the support site, but not made available through TVSU, then use this feedback link to notify the e-support team so they may investigate.
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/websitefeedback
3) If you have recently changed the system board in your system, or service has changed the board, and TVSU can no longer find updates, or reports an error detecting your system, please reboot and press F1 to enter BIOS. (Note, you may need to shut and restart to enter BIOS). In BIOS, check that the system model type and serial number are correctly displayed. These should match the type and serial numbers on the sticker on the bottom of your system. TVSU identifies correct updates by checking these values in BIOS. When a system board is replaced, there is a service proceedure to update the type and serial number values in BIOS to match that of the new system. If these are shown as blank, this was not performed, and is the reason TVSU is not detecting updates. Please contact Lenovo service if this is the case.

[SOLVED] Pacman trying to install 64-bit packages on 32-bit system

Is there a way to add files to a package without repackaging in a new folder?

So I'm working on this promotional binder for a company. I'm working section by section including photos and whatnot. Anyways, I got to a certain point with one section and packaged everything so I could start anew the following day.
My question is this: is there a way for me to add files to the InDesign file I already packaged WITHOUT having to repackage in a new folder and archive the old one?
I mean it just seems to me that I SHOULD be able to select the package option and the work would repackage/update the package, much like a Word file would when you select the save button.
(And if there isn't, is someone at Adobe paying attention that could make this a possibility? That would be fantastic.)

You can Add images to your package by using the Links Panel submenu (top right) and choose Utilities> copy links to...
And you can select the images you want first - or don't select any to copy them all.
Fonts - not so much.
But that's one easy way to get new images into your packaged folder.
But I don't like this to be honest. I much prefer creating a new Package and calling it "Version 2" or "Final Artwork" or something that is right by your file naming convention.

How to know database name and schema name by providing package name?

Hi,
Could someonw will help me to get database name and schema name by providing package name ?
I have used the query : select * from all_objects where object_name='Package_name'; but it simply returns schema name where as i need DB name and username.
--Prajakta

but it simply returns schema name where as i need DB name and username.
i want to retrive the DB name for package name
Based on your questions, I wonder if you are used to working in SQL Server? (The server, database, and schema are part of the 4-part name of an object, independent of any user.)
In SQL Server, schema and username are two separate physical concepts. "Schema" is purely logical in Oracle: a user which owns objects is often called a "schema".
In Oracle, "database" is roughly equivalent to the SQL Server concept "server" (what you log in to). It is not part of the naming path to a specific object (unless there is a database link involved, but there is no indication that's what you have here). In Oracle you connect to an Instance (or Service) and people often call this the "database", but there is a fine semantic distinction there (separate topic).
Once connected in Oracle, you fully-qualify an object by only a 2-part owner and object name (possibly 3-part if a database link is involved user.object@link).
12c added another wrinkle to all of this, but I'll assume this question was more basic than that, because you likely would have mentioned if this was a 12c question.

Info package issue in Production system?

Hi experts,
I would like to know about the scenerio of info packages in production system.
1) When the objects are transported to production system,
Do we use the same info packages in the prod system,which are used to schedule the load in development system.
2) Do we create new infopackages everytime for the data load in production system?. Please let me know about this.
3) In my case when I schedule the infopackage which are transported to prod system are asking for request number. Is it normal?. I mean everytime we schedule, will it ask for request number in prod system.?
Please let me know the normal procedure as to how to load the data in prod system(Standard Procedure Which is followed by all developer's to load the data)
With regards,
Dubbu

1) When the objects are transported to production system,
Do we use the same info packages in the prod system,which are used to schedule the load in development system.
Ans : The choice is yours.In our system we create infopackages directly in production.Its just flexibility for us.
2) Do we create new infopackages everytime for the data load in production system?. Please let me know about this.
Ans : Infopackages are reusuable but if they are used in process chains its better to create new ones as it will affect the associated process chain.
3) In my case when I schedule the infopackage which are transported to prod system are asking for request number. Is it normal?. I mean everytime we schedule, will it ask for request number in prod system.?
Ans : Yes its normal to ask request number but in development system.
