Request for information from EFI Windows/Linux dual-booters

Hi,
As many of you know, I'm the developer of the rEFInd boot manager. I'm currently adding a new feature to rEFInd, the intent of which is to kick the Windows recovery boot options off of the main list of OSes and into the second row. The trouble is that I suspect there's a lot of variability in what the recovery boot loader is called. On a lot of computers with Windows 8 pre-installed, there seem to be recovery tools on a second non-ESP FAT partition, but I don't know what these tools are called in all cases. Thus, I'd appreciate it if those of you with Windows 8 EFI/UEFI installations could get back to me with this information. What I'd like is the filesystem label and complete file path to any Windows recovery tool(s) on your computer. For instance, "EFI/Manufacturer/bootmgfw.efi on the FOO filesystem boots to a Windows recovery tool." Note that the filesystem label is critical and it varies between manufacturers. It appears in the rEFInd menu (if rEFInd picks up the tool) and should be revealed by "blkid" under Linux. (I need the LABEL= value, not the PARTLABEL= value.) My intention is to incorporate all the known names as defaults in rEFInd, and give an override option to add to or replace that default list of filenames.
You can post here (if the forum moderators don't mind), send me a PM on this system, or e-mail me ([email protected]). Thanks in advance for any responses.

In my system originally created I have as follow
/dev/sda1: LABEL="SYSTEM" UUID="3EB7-5907" TYPE="vfat" PARTLABEL="EFI system partition" PARTUUID="6b139546-f3e4-423c-8a5a-5429389899b4"

Invalid request for a change in window state

Ok...
Creating a JSR168 portlet and it works fine in Pluto, but I get the following when I deploy to P7:
ERROR: Content not available. REASONE: Invalid request for a change in window state
Here is what the portlet is supposed to do:
* Display a form
* User clicks find
* Lookup is performed
* Window state in processAction() method of portlet is changed to MAXIMIZED
* I'm guessing this is where the error is occuring
I also think that for the TableContainer, I have some sort of attribute incorrect having to do with one of the channelsIs values.
I tried toggling them one way or another without any effect.
Suggestions?

Ive run into this issue also. I need a way for a portlet to change to its maximized state for the purposes of user registration. Is there anyway this can be done? I know that sun jsp "Providers" which are shown on their example desktop, have some sort of maximized state that they can go into, but im not sure how to use this in a portlet.
There seems to be very inconsistent support between the proprietary sun provider api, and the portlet api.

Threads: Moving the guy around
Threads: Making him shoot a ball at the mouses position
Network: Allow others to join/play game (This is gonna be HUGE probably), while host decides on game type.
Thanks for all the help so far!

Where does moving ever get started? Why does Move extend Thread instead of implementing Runnable? (Implementing runnable is preferred and often the correct way to do it and it is in this case)
But regardless there shoud be a moving.start() somewhere or start of the Thread that has the Runnable target Move.... I don't think I see one. Unless I missed it.
so...itll work if i change the setup to Runnable?

Upload request for Quotation from external data (ME47)

Hi is there a easy way to upload request for change in SAP from external data.
Maybe a functionmodule or BAPI.
Like for transaction ME41 ME42 ME47 etc.

For things to happen automatically, you'll need to use JavaScript. To import a record, you use the importTextData document method: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.502.html
Note that it can't work with Reader and it must be placed in a trusted function in a folder-level JavaScript file.
To print programmatically, use the print method: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.511.html
So the script could loop through the records, printing after each one populates the fields.

Notification Timeout when Requested for Information

Hi,
We have implemented a approval notification for our customer which on a high level is as follows
requester -> Approver 1-> Approver 2
Once a request is submitted, the 'approval' notification goes to Approver 1 followed by Approver 2. The request is approved when both approves approve the request. If no action is taken by the approvers, the original notifications are cancelled and escalation notification is sent to supervisor of approver 2.
We have a timeout of 48 hours set for the initial approval notifications sent to the approvers (1 & 2). In case Approver 2 requests for more information using the 'Request information' button, the TIMEOUT clock does not seem to reset and the notification is cancelled after 48 hrs even if the notification is in the queue of the requester.
This is causing the escalation notification to be supervisor of approver 2.
The question here is why does the timeout clock not reset when the notification goes back to the requester for additional information. Is this how the standard oracle workflow notification behaves ? Is there a way to customize and achieve this ?
Warm Regards,
Ashwin

There is an enhancement request for this bug (Enhancement Request Bug 14492570
Bug 14492570 : ER: TIMEOUT OCCURS EVEN THOUGH YOU SEND A REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION To Bottom )

HTTP_REFERER header is missing in request for .mp4 from Safari on ipad or iphone

I just discovered that when I have a .mp4 file embedded in my webpage and I visit that page using Safari on the iPad, the request for the .mp4 is missing the referer header. This is a problem for me because I use URL Rewriting in my web.config file on IIS and I redirect requests (in which the HTTP_REFERER does not begin with my own domain name) to a no hotlink image. Safari on the iphone4 does the same thing when I visit this page--the HTTP_REFERER header in the request for the .mp4 is empty. I've had to turn my hotlinking protection for MP4 files off on my site in order for ipad/iphone to display the video on my page. If the hotlink protection (i.e., rewrite rule in my web.config) is turned on, the video does not display.
It seems like this would be a common issue because hotlink protection is commonly implemented in this manner.
Is there something I am issing? Some special way of preventing hotlinking and yet letting the mp4 content through to idevices?
Thank You!

I have the same issue with Safari, but with mp3 files not playing using a HTML5 player on my website. I have hotlink protection enabled and the audio plays on every other browser except Safari, so there's seems to be a problem playing any videos or mp3 files when hotlink protection is enabled.

Hi Ver Baylon,
After having deleted the request in the manage ODS you should run DTP not the info package again. Better yet I think you should do the following steps.
1. Double click on the corresponding info package. Then go to scheduler on the top left tab of the window and click on the initialization options for source system. There delete all the queues that exist.
2. Manage the PSA and delete all the requests
3. Delete form manage the DSO all the requests from the DSO.
Then go to the info package in the update tab and do a Initialize without data transfer
In the next step do a delta update.
After that execute a full DTP.
Check the results then
Hope that helps
John

Request for information regarding the Lumia Denim and WP 8.1 Update 1 for Lumia 920

When can those of us with the Lumia 920 get the Lumia Denim update and the Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1 Update for our phones? And does AT&T have a time fram for getting us Lumia 920 owners the update or are we not going to get this update until Windows Phone 10 comes out?

GLIMMERMAN76 wrote:
the phone is almost 3 years old they may not update it.. But then again there are suprise around every corner sometimes. People with the 830 are waiting for an update also.When the update came out the phone was about two years old. Now we expect GDR2. On the Microsoft update page there are seven AT&T Lumia phones. There would be eight but the 830 is no longer listed. Did AT&T have it removed ? Only three of these phones have the Denim update available, that is 37.5%. Is AT&T even trying, I don't think so. The same models of phones all over the world have been updated. Now WP10 is coming up. Microsoft says they will update WP10 directly, no carrier in the middle and they say it will be available to all phones and only phones running Lumia Denim, OS version 8.10.14219.341 or higher can be upgraded. So, the phone has to have at least Denim before you can update.Will Windows 10 update be available for my Lumia phone? We bought two 920's from AT&T in 2012. Wife is still using hers and I replaced mine with a 1520.3 last year. It has Qi wireless charging and 32GB memory, not the AT&T version. We no longer have a contract and never will, using 'bring your own phone'.The other 62.5% of the Lumia phone users with AT&T probably feel the same way.

About CS4 vs CS5 - a request for information

First my setup:
Sager laptop NP8760
CORE i7 820QM @ 1.73Ghz (both cores)
ATI MR HD 5870 (1 GB)
Ram: 8192MB DDR3 1333 (2 DIMMS)
2 SATA 500GB WD hdd
Win 7 64bit
What I want to hear about, is given the hardware and that its 64 bit win 7... How different will I find CS5 encore to be.
I've been working with CS4 on the same hardware for about a month.
It sounds like CS5 Premier has a significant change with the new rendering engine, but what about Encore? Has it aquired some new and better way to grind avi into mpeg2?
My usage is as an event videographer still in the learning phase in all respects. Although I have finally developed some familiarity with the Adobe CS4 Production set. And have been an off and on user of Photoshop, premiere, encore and Illustrator going back to the version where CS had no number following it.
Its really hard to tell from the online descriptions that adobe has posted, although it appears they have put a good effort into trying to describe what to expect. It isn't enough for me to understand what I might find better or worthwhile about CS5.

John T Smith wrote:
64bit (required for PPro CS5) means better use of more memory
Your ATI graphics card does not allow hardware MPE in PPro
Encore is still 32bit, since the "core" is licensed from Roxio, and they are still 32bit
You might want to check http://ppbm5.com/ to see if there are any laptops like yours, and where they rank
MPE ?... is that hardware acceleration?
And what is the end result of not allowing MPE?
I couldn't make much sense of the tightly woven pages at you citation... looked like it make take some serious pondering just to get started with that
My laptop had 2 choices of vid card... the other one was `Nvidia Quadro FX 2800M 1gb Gddr3' I didn't know enough about how to read the specs to make an informed choice... but shy'd away from Nvidia due to experineces on a P4 running winXP -pro where I reall couldn't even run encore CS4 without major problems... begining with having to turn hardware excelloration off.
Would that card make a serious difference in working with PP and Encore?

BIOS Request for G580 Model 2189 Windows 7 x64

Hello, could someone please provide an original BIOS for G580 Model 2189 x64 Windows 7? Thank you!

Not to difficult to find... Why the "original" BIOS request? Usually not a good idea to backstep BIOS unless directed to by support professionals. Also, BIOS updates are independant of Windows Versions, the installer or "flashing": program used to install the BIOS file is sometimes Windows version dependant.
Either way - check this page for BIOS files: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/lenovo-g-series-laptops/lenovo-g580-no...
Good luck.
