Running only the Xfce4-Pannel

I like running a minimal environment, and typically do most of my work from command line.
(Hey I grew up with command line UNIX!)
For a long time I also ran the Gnome panel, and Nautilus  (no desktop) without running a full gnome session. Just to do quick file moves and manipulation and application launching.
Things were great, simple and useful.
Now Gnome 3 has come alone  and the gnome-panel is useless and nautilus has changed.   YUCK!!!!!
So I started to shop around for a replacement panel, and settled on Xfce4-panel, with Thunar.
Launching Xfce4-panel on its own works, one time after a reboot, but after I logout and log back it it 'resets' all its configuration back to a single blank panel again!
Does anyone run just the Xfce4-panel on its own?
Can it be run without needing a "session manager"?
Any other suggestions?
I tried lxpanel  but I can't get it to use larger icons in a side panel, and it looks plain silly with tiny launch buttons on the side of a huge screen.  It is also not as configurable at Xfce4-panel.

The xfce4-panel information is saved,  and if I reboot and run it it works.  But if I then logout and log back it everything gets wiped!
I think I kill something I probably shouldn't when I logout, but I have no idea what.
I still like xfce4-panel better than lxpanel  (better configuration of launchers and interfaces well with thunar) but it complaints about no SESSION_MANAGER and it's wiping of the panel configuration is becoming most annoying.

  • How do i set up flash player to run only the audio files

    How do I set up the flash player to run only audio files?  Every time i set up I tunes to work,, the flash player takes over all files that it wants and I cannont see my files for work.  I want it to only auto run audio files and not my GIF's, & TIFF files.

    Well I had a terrible brain burp!,, I ment to say Quick Time.  In my business I have to go back at times and view TIFF files.  Every since I installed ITunes on my new computer...  Quick Time opens the files where MS Photo Viewer used to, and I can only see page 1 in Quick Time.  This is a problem for me as the only way I can view my TIFF files is to save them to my desk top and then open them in MS Photo Viewer.  Then I have to delete them after viewing..  I view files several times a day and this extra step has become a very larg pain in the fanny.
    Thanks

  • Is there a way to have an iPad run only 1 app at a time?

    I am a tech support person and teachers are asking me if we can have a students iPad run only one app at a time. For instance, a group of students in biology would be allowed to run only the app for their biology book.
    Students have gotten so distracted during classtime with iMessage, web browsing, videos and games that it becomes virtually impossible to keep them on task in the classroom.
    I am aware of adding profiles to the devices, but this profile would only be for the biology class. It would then have to be removed or deactivated upon leaving the class.

    You can restrict iPads running iOS 6 to a single app via Guided Access:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5509
    but that requires reconfiguration of the iPads whenever you want to set it up or deactivate or change it. There may be a mobile device management (MDM) system that would allow you to push out such changes "on the fly" but I can't say with certainty. Someone else here or in the iPad in the Enterprise forum may know.
    Otherwise it may be necessary to implement an administrative solution such as banning use of iPads in class or enforcing consequences should a student be using the iPad for inappropriate functions.
    Regards.

  • Can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?

    can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?
    I want to install 16 gb ram but I don't think I can change the lack of video card. I wanted this basic machine because it has fairly long battery life. I don't need or want retina at this time. My model is the mid 2012 model. I am running the adobe collection for mac, I want to run the windows versions. Is it possible? What is the most ram I could access using something like fusion 5, assuming I could get fusion 5 to work? would it refuse to run because of the intel chipset and lack of video card?
    If I'm wrong and there is a way to add a video card to this model, could some version of fusion and windows 7 access more than 2 gb operating ram?
    What  cost would I be incurring, and would it be cheaper to buy a windows laptop with more ram than I could access via a virtual machine?
    I want to work on a client's work in the windows versions of the creative suite, with occasional usage of after effects for windows, and to use some web plug-ins only available in windows versions, and to try some windows-only video and audio software.
    thanks for any suggestions. While many people have told me I can run everything on my macbook, I am concerned about what I think is a limited amount of ram that can be accessed over the virtual machine partition softwares, and I don't know if what I want to attempt is actually possible.
    My mbp os is 10.8.2 on a 2.5 GHz intel core i5 4 gb 1600MHz DDR3 with 500 hard drive. the basic 13" mid 2012 machine.
    I'm hoping to install 16 G of opertating ram to allow more adobe programs to run concurrently- just when I am working on the mac side.
    also, off track but, for years I have wanted a small  machine that is more easily portable than my 15" machines. I have only had this used machine for a few weeks, but already I have been very satisfied and used it for presentations at clients. I don't want an air because I really want the dvd burner and player. No matter what apple says about wireless, there are decades of legacy work stored on optical discs all over the world, and I don't want to be unable to open something at a client's office because I don't have a dvd drive. Additionally, I have very large files I want to transfer via ethernet or firewire so that the transfer will take less time and be more secure than wifi. I resist apple's trend to make every machine a disposable toy that is viable only a year or so. I have read reviews that label the mbp it a poor value compared to the air. If all you need to do is text and communicate via wifi, many devices will sufice, and an air is certainly the most elegant. But what about the cost of large ssd's and protecting the drive against damage from shock? I want to be able to move this thing around and the small size is much safer inside my padded bag when I sit in narrow airplane seats, crowded trains and other congested spaces. I am much more likely to be able to borrow a large screen in a client's office ( with the use of one of the three adapters I had to buy) than to be able to borrow a dvd drive that has drivers for mac os 10.8.2. I suspect this may be the last generation of machines that have optical drives and ethernet, and that was why I purchased it so that I could continue to do work into the next few years. I am impressed by the retina display, but I need long battery life. And as beautiful as the retina display is, it is even more of a problem when trying to cross platform with the windows world. I wish I could infuence apple to do a trial product flow for a machine designed to work with 80% of the business world that uses windows. How spectacular that would be. With all their expertise and adept hardware design, to create a machine that cross platforms better than a windows machine itself works? Now that would be an accomplishment.  Instead of 8 or 9 percent of the total computer sales, why not aim for a higher percentage? Smart devices will keep moving toward portable computers in power, anyway.

    Fusion should work on your machine and if you put 16 GB of RAM in (see http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_160 0MHz_SDRAM), Fusion can access a good portion of that. Also, in a Virtual Machine, the guest OS is presented with Fusion's video card emulation, not what's in hardware on your Mac. Of course, finding Windows 7 now that Win 8 has been released could take some doing and the Win 8 Pro upgrade price is supposed to jump to $200 the end of the month. Add that to the price of Fusion and the extra RAM and you're beginning to get into the realm of low end real PC's.
    As to cross platform, I assume you're aware of BootCamp (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461).

  • I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build.  The same call works fine when running on the device

    I have a production mobile Flex app that uses RemoteObject calls for all data access, and it's working well, except for a new remote call I just added that only fails when running with a release build. The same call works fine when running on the device (iPhone) using debug build. When running with a release build, the result handler is never called (nor is the fault handler called). Viewing the BlazeDS logs in debug mode, the call is received and send back with data. I've narrowed it down to what seems to be a data size issue.
    I have targeted one specific data call that returns in the String value a string length of 44kb, which fails in the release build (result or fault handler never called), but the result handler is called as expected in debug build. When I do not populate the String value (in server side Java code) on the object (just set it empty string), the result handler is then called, and the object is returned (release build).
    The custom object being returned in the call is a very a simple object, with getters/setters for simple types boolean, int, String, and one org.23c.dom.Document type. This same object type is used on other other RemoteObject calls (different data) and works fine (release and debug builds). I originally was returning as a Document, but, just to make sure this wasn't the problem, changed the value to be returned to a String, just to rule out XML/Dom issues in serialization.
    I don't understand 1) why the release build vs. debug build behavior is different for a RemoteObject call, 2) why the calls work in debug build when sending over a somewhat large (but, not unreasonable) amount of data in a String object, but not in release build.
    I have't tried to find out exactly where the failure point in size is, but, not sure that's even relevant, since 44kb isn't an unreasonable size to expect.
    By turning on the Debug mode in BlazeDS, I can see the object and it's attributes being serialized and everything looks good there. The calls are received and processed appropriately in BlazeDS for both debug and release build testing.
    Anyone have an idea on other things to try to debug/resolve this?
    Platform testing is BlazeDS 4, Flashbuilder 4.7, Websphere 8 server, iPhone (iOS 7.1.2). Tried using multiple Flex SDK's 4.12 to the latest 4.13, with no change in behavior.
    Thanks!

    After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
    The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList.  Changing it to List resolved the problem.
    I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid.  And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger.  Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me.

  • Is it possible to choose the serial port if only the run time engine is installed

    I have an application, which communicates over the serial port. When I use the full version of Labview I can change the serial port without any problem from Com1 to Com2 (similar to the example “Hardeware input output -> serial -> Labview serial vi"). When I build an application and try to run this program on a computer where only the run time engine 6.1 is installed, it is not possible to choose the serial port. Since there is no “Measurement and Automation Explorer” available on the run time engine and no directory C:\VXIpnp is created, when the run time engine is installed, I do not see a way, how I can satisfy the computer with the information it needs for configuring
    the different ports. Any suggestions?

    Hi Daniel,
    Before LV6.1 there was LV5.1 In LV5.1 the way to Spedify a resource was to use a string control with correct VIsa Resource Class identifier. For eg. "GPIB0::11" or "ASRL1::INSTR". With Introduction of VISA Resource Name Control and linking with MAX, These names are Available from Pull Down List and Can be Aliased, meaning ASRL1 which is Serial Port 1 can be called COM1 and so on. However the old method still works with all 6.1 Controls. Only thing is you have to make sure you Dont Conflict the Class Names ie Use "GPIB::.." instead of "ASRL..." when addressing Serial Port VI's.
    To solve your Problem I would Build a Menu ring with COM1 to COM4 in the Pull Down List.
    Next, If I use the Traditonal Serial Port VI wich accepts the Integer as Seria
    l Port #. I just Wire the Menu Ring to this VI.(Remember COM1 is 0, COM2 is 1 for this VI)
    If I use VISA Config Serial Post. I build an Array Constant with Corresponding VISA Class Names So in our case a String Array Constant of 4 elements "ASRL1::INST" to "ASRL4::INST". I Use Index Array Function With the Index Wired to my Menu Ring. The Array Input Terminal Wired to the Array Constant. The Output of this Array will be correct Visa Class Name Based on slection of my Menu Ring. I can Wire this as Input to my VISA Config Serial Port Vi.
    I have attached a Small VI to Illustrate this.
    Drawback: You must Predefine what Ports you will Want to Use. Basically you define all the cases.
    I hope this Answers your Q!
    Good Luck

    I rented a movie on my iPad. It downloaded fine but would only play 36 minutes, 5 seconds worth of the movie; although the time kept running for the length of the movie. Can this be fixed or do I need to get a refund?

    You can try a rest:
    Reset iPad:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - If that does work, contact iTunes and request a redownload.  You can ask for a refund though.

    Not something I've ever done, but I found a 9-year-old article from MacWorld -> http://www.macworld.com/article/1041790/tapetocd.html - that explains it a bit. Apparently the only software that you need is GarageBand and a hardware interface. Just Google "copy audio cassette to mac" and you'll get tons of hits.

    The installer you have invoked can run only in solaris_sparc platform. Please invoke the installer for Solaris_sparc platform.
    Any idea's on what may be causing this?

    Only one observation, you cite
    -bash-3.00# cd /cdrom/solaris_cluster/solaris_sparc/Note the capitalization of the "solaris_sparc" directory. Is that an offical media kit, or did you burn the CD/DVD yourself?
    I belief the directory should be called "Solaris_sparc" (note the capital S).

  • How do I set up a periodic job to run only if the previous period job ran

    I want to sent up a process that will run on the second work day of the month that will run program A.  If program A runs successfully, then I want to run program B.  If B is successful, then program C.
    I tried to setup A to run on the second work day of the month using a calendar. 
    I then setup B to run after event A.
    I then setup C to run after event B.
    This all worked great the first month.  Now we are coming up on the second month, and A is still scheduled and will run on the second work day of this month, but B and C are no where to be found.
    I found various threads to use bp_event_raise and SM62, but I guess since I am not an ABAP programmer I did the program wrong.
    can someone please give me detailed instructions on how to set this up.

    Hi John,
    Create a process Chain with start variant sheduled using EVENT.
    1. Create a event in TCODE SM62. In the Event tab on the process chain give the event ID and a Parameter name.
    2. In SE38, create a program. call method RAISE of class CL_BATCH_EVENT. Give Event ID and Paramter name as given in Process chain variant.
    Coding will be like:
    if sy-datum+6(2) = '02'.
      CALL METHOD cl_batch_event=>raise
        EXPORTING
          i_eventid                      =
          i_eventparm                    =
         i_server                       =
         i_ignore_incorrect_server      = 'X'
       EXCEPTIONS
         excpt_raise_failed             = 1
         excpt_server_accepts_no_events = 2
         excpt_raise_forbidden          = 3
         excpt_unknown_event            = 4
         excpt_no_authority             = 5
         others                         = 6
      IF sy-subrc <> 0.
      MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
                 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
      ENDIF.
      endif.
    Schedule this program in background daily. when eve the date in '02' the event will be triggered.
    3. Place the process type "ABAP progam", maintain the variant as Program A.
    4.  Place the process type "ABAP progam", maintain the variant as Program B.
    5. Place the process type "ABAP progam", maintain the variant as Program C.
    Connect all this with tpye only on Success.
    This will ensure that program A will be executed on 2nd of every month. If success Program B and then Program C.
