Grafics problem on mac osx lion with intel hd
i have some grafics problems in some games like dragon age 2 or assassin's creed on my MacBook Pro 13" (early 2011). in dragon age 2 yellow and red effects became blue and green after the upgrade (like blood), and playing assassin's creed 2 is quite "impossible" because all characters, horses and so on, appear all green and red (but i have to mention that they games run faster since i upgraded to lion ). is there any sign of an update for intel hd grafics?
No, OpenGL Swap Buffer support (Level 1) support for the HP4000 is for Windows only. Level 2 and 3 support is not available either. You'd need a more powerful NVIDIA card for Level 1, 2, and 3 feature support.

Help with systemd problems/reply to closed thread
@Everyone; as the previopus topic was closed, I am opening a new one here, partly to reply to some things that was said to me in the previous thread/topic (and I do not like to leave people hanging), but mainly to try and get some help with my systemd config (that I was not able to find help with in the wiki or manpages).
@czubek; eww, that sounds rather similiar to some other operating systems I've heard of (not just, but obviously including, windows)... For me, subjectively, that is not very attractive, as being able to have a single application do a single thing, and then mixing and matching as I personally see fit is a great thing.
@tomegun: I can indeed see your point, but if I made direct quotes on all the things I reply too, my posts would reach biblical proportions.
Mmm-hmm, I do indeed know of "the Arch Way"; however, the system that you expose can be of varying complexity as well, and I found that the system that was presented to me by way of Sysvinit/initscripts was a way simpler system than that presented to me by systemd.
Indeed, and I do like that; I enjoy knowing how my system works and learning more about it; however, the truth is that reading manpages and the wiki isn't always enough. And I use the numbers instead of letters in certain places as a jest, please, do not get offended by that; if you have to, get offended by my opinions.
Ah, I have now scanned the wiki, the manpages, and have already faced problems. While part of me is saddened by this fact (as I was hoping for a smooth transition to systemd), part of me is glad that I can at least prove that everything isn't quite as simple as some people would make it out to be. More on this later in this post, as I do need help with the problems I have faced.
And I wouldn't say that the new and old way are equally trivial, as I immediatley faced problems with "the new way". More on this later.
Ok, I find that if the debate is polarized, then there is nothing wrong with describing it as such. I spell what I see.
Oh my... Ignored as a matter of principle? I would say that that is an excellent way to stagnate; by that logic, moviemakers, gamemakers etcetera should ignore any and all criticism they recieve, as the critics are not contributing.... Wouldn't that lead to a complete halt in development? Isn't criticism (so long as it is constructive, obviously) a key component of (media/software) evolution?
Ah, I see, then I misunderstood the current state of the install media
"Some adjustements"... Well, I guess we'll have to see how that goes, then. Hopefully it'll be smooth.
@Everyone; Awebb possesses stunning accuracy as far as his observations go.
@zb3; My point exactly.
@tomegun; I believe you to be wrong; complaining (but not whining) is the first step towards improvement, as I think that I and zb3 has shown.
Further, your last point (where you talk about "deep understanding of Y" and whatnot) is basically saying that only devs and programmers can contribute, so zb3's observation would be correct.
Also, making suggestions is part of constructive criticism; you can do that even if you can't code, e.g. by saying "X works badly because it makes Y crash; couldn't we replace X with something akin to Z?". This is a valid point even if you have no intricate understanding of X, Y or Z, and if it is impossible to replace X for one reason or the other, it's not hard to reply with "Replacing X is impossible because of reason Q", and then see if someone can solve reason Q etcetera.
zb3's example is obviously helping; for one, it would allow people to know taht they can't boot with systemd in certain cases, or that installing/runing systemd can break their system. I would consider that rather important information.
@Everyone; Now then, to see if I can (or rather, if I can get help to) shed some light on some problems I've been having.
My transition to systemd went pretty smooth (besides the fact that I couldn't use 'systemctl' to set anything, and neither duckduckgo nor any posts in the forums could help me (the error I continously got was "Failed to issue method call: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 1") and that there are no manpages/tips on how to configure the files for "localtime" and "adjtime", which would've been good considering some syntax have changed) to about halfway through, to the point where I was supposed to start using systemd for my daemons.
Now then, to the main problem; first, I tried running
"systemctl enable syslog-ng.service"
and got the following message;
"ln -s '/usr/lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service' '/etc/systemd/system/syslog.service'
ln -s '/usr/lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service' '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/syslog-ng.service'"
Since it doesn't exclusively say that something went wrong (at least as far as I can understand), I pondered the message a bit, but moved on to try and start dbus by issuing
"systemctl enable dbus.service",
to which I got the reply
"The unit files have no [Install] section. They are not meant to be enabled using systemctl."
This I can only assume is an error message of some sort, especially seeing as it says "not meant to be enabled using systemctl", but the wiki rather explicitly states that that is what I am supposed to do.
I dare not move on (or attempt to start other daemons) without further advice, as I fear I might break my system. Any ideas as to how to solve this would be greatly appreciated.tcmdvm wrote:
The message;

ln -s '/usr/lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service' '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/syslog-ng.service'"
indicates that running "systemctl enable syslog.service" is now enabled.
If you try running sytemtctl enable <whatever>.service and get
"The unit files have no [Install] section. They are not meant to be enabled using systemctl." means there is no <whatever>.service file available to enable.
The dbus.service as far as I know is already enabled when installing systemd and doesn't require any action.
Ah, right, systemd is chatty (I'm of the old skool; if nothing is/goes wrong, a program should keep quiet).
Oh ok, then I should dare more on.
ZekeSulastin wrote:To be a bit more precise, it means the service is there but it's only used as a dependency for something else; the [Install] section of the file is what tells systemctl where to link it and such. Also, where exactly in the wiki were you told explicitly to 'systemctl enable dbus.service'? I can easily point you to the sections in both installation guides that tell you how to set things like /etc/localtime et. al (also `man 7 archlinux`), but not the one that said to manually enable dbus.
Ah, I see; and well, I was told right here, going from the top, to "Enable Daemons formerly listed in rc.conf [...] For a translation of the daemons from /etc/rc.conf to systemd services, see: List of Daemons and Services.", and, using the list, dbus is mentioned there, as you can see. Since I started from the top, I did not know that you didn't need to enable that service. Perhaps it could be added to the descriptions of the relevant services in the Wiki which ones are autostarted?
ZekeSulastin wrote:Lastly, I don't think trying to continue conversations from a closed thread is a very good idea, let alone doing it in a giant undivided wall of text that makes it quite difficult to pick out much any single topic.
Meh, I directly refer to the relevant people, they can easily see their own old posts in the previous thread, etcetera... I think te ones who have something to say will be able to find my replies to their previous statements (or so I hope). For now, as everyone can see, I quote stuff (but man might I make some huge posts if I ever post again in the future, if I quote what I reply to).

Ah ok, thanks (or perhaps a cautious thanks? Moving it to "newbie corner" might, after all, be a subtle insult...).
tomegun wrote:It is not really possible to follow your message as you don't quote what you are replying to. Moreover, as the thread was closed I think that means we should stop the discussion ;-)
Hmm, I think it means cop-out for lack or proper arguments/responses... But ok, I'll let it slide, for now (mainly as I can't do much else).
tomegun wrote:You are not meant to enable dbus.service as it is enabled unconditionally. To check the enabled/disabled state of your services try "systemctl list-unit-files". "static" means that you are not supposed to enabled/disable it.
Ah ok, thank you. Now, having abandoned all hope, I'll start configuring again and see how it goes... May the void protect me. If I die, grieve not for me, but remember me in the fight against hard-to-configure applications.
(edit/addon)
Actually, what am I supposed to do with "hwclock"? the List of Daemons only says that I shouldn't run that in tandem with ntpd, but I'm not running ntpd, so... How do I get hwclock with systemd?
Edited for additional question.

Can anyone assist me with this problem
hey guys thanks for reading this hey,
The assignment suggest the use of maps but i am not sure how i can use maps to help me as i am relitivley new to the collections heirahcy. I have attached the code i have so far. i am desperatly in need of help. an explanation of what the program will print is below.
input needs to be grabbed from file
Brazil 1 France 2
France 1 Germany 2
Germany 0 Japan 3
Germany 2 Brazil 0
France 4 Japan 4
Then the corresponding summary written to standard output should be:
Team W D L F A P
Germany 2 0 1 4 4 6
Japan 1 1 0 7 4 4
France 1 1 1 7 7 4
Brazil 0 0 2 1 4 0
For each team, the output contains the number of games won (W), the number of games drawn (D), the number of games lost (L), the total number of goals scored (F, "goals for"), the total number of goals scored by the teams' opponents (A, "goals against"), and the total number of points (P). A team scores 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw, and 0 points for a loss.
here is the code that i have so far assembled.
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
class Soccer
//declare varibles
StringTokenizer st; // StringTokenizer for separating values
BufferedReader in; // BufferedReader for reading standard input
BufferedReader infile; // reads data from input file
String input; // holds input data temporarily

//input from filend class
infile = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(args[0]));
input = infile.readLine();
st = new StringTokenizer(input);
count = st.countTokens();
temp = new String[count];
for(int i = 0; i < count; i++)
temp[i] = st.nextToken();
}//end for
//start if map code
Map map = new HashMap(); // Maps words to no. of occs.
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
// Get number of occurrences of next word
Integer value = (Integer) map.get(temp);
// Increment number of occurrences of word
if (value == null) {
map.put(temp[i], ONE);
} else {
int val = value.intValue();
map.put(temp[i], new Integer(val+1));
}//end for
// Print values of map, one per line

Bin32-wine with srgbtexture patch
Hey there,
it would nice to have a PKGBUILD for bin32-wine with srg texture patch (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12453)
S.b. could provide it?
thanksI see.......thank you for the response. I wondered if I had to compile for the chroot or simply use pacman -Syu. That is indeed a large advantage.
I went ahead and completely wiped bin32-wine, all of the dot files, and reinstalled Office 2007, Starcraft, and Deus Ex. That fixed a bug in Office (files with space in file path not opening correctly from dolphin/konqueror/etc).
I also discovered that one of my problems with my games was that I somehow missed a few packages related to opengl. I stll wasn't able to get Deus Ex working just yet.....
I may go ahead and do the chroot, as that seems like an easier way of doing things after the initial setup.
If anyone has anymore input I would be grateful to hear it. -

punkrockguy318 wrote:Which works more effeciantly: Wine with windows, or wine without windows?
I have the latest wine installed. I do not use the "Wine with Windows Installation". I believe that part of the install script branch will just use some of your ".dll" and ".exe" files from the Windows partition.
In my case, I just download the ".dll" files from http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/index.shtml as I need them. I set the debug environment variable when fine tuning apps, and it will spit out the ".dll" files it's looking for. Then, I just download that ".dll" from that website and throw it in the "c:/windows/system" path. It removes those warnings from the debug output next time I run that app.
As far as efficiency, that question is a "catch 22". When you use the actual ".dll" files and such from Windows itself, naturally, they should work more efficiently than a reverse engineered emulation lib. However, you run the risk of breaking the Wine API by using the native Window ".dll" files. So, breaking the Wine emulator for "efficiency" is hardly efficient. But, even then, you can specify for each individual app whether or not to use native or built-in ".dll" files and such in your config file.
The moral of that story is...keep a fresh Wine only installation, and tinker with adding native ".dll" files and such as you see fit. Then, when it breaks, you can pinpoint the problem to using one specific file. That's what I do and it gives me the flexibility/performance I need, and it's much simpler IMHO. -

Can anyone help me with a problem i am having with my music on my iPhone 4S. I have put alot of Compilation CDs in my library on iTunes. I download these tracks onto my phone, everything is ok so far. Now, this is what is niggling me and I don.t know how to resolve it. This is my problem:
Have downloaded for example: Queen – Bohemium Rhapsody from a compilation album as well as a few complete Queen Album CDs into the iTunes library and then put them into playlists,
When I go onto my phone and select Queen on the MUSIC app using Songs tab at the bottom of the screen it will display all Queen songs and their resective Alum pics, that is all those not in a complilation album, .
If I know the song title I can select the songs tab and find the song that way,
I’ve tried fiddling with the settings in the iTunes app by going to ‘get info’ tab and trying to sort the problem out that way but am not having much luck.What I want the phone to do is show, for example all Queens songs including those in compilation albums. Can this be done, would be grateful for any ideas on how it can be done, that is if ic can be done, any ideas

Monitors with Gradient Problems?
Hi All,
Further to my recent post "monitor screen display terrible!"
Finding a monitor without spending a lot with excellent picture quality is proving differcult! I have tried a Philips 22" monitor Model 220CW9FB and now a BENQ T900HD 18.5 WS monitor all not as sharp with good contrast as my 4 year old G5 iMac. Also has a gradient problem e.g. as you get up off your chair and continue to look down at the screen the white background of the screen turns light blue then darker and colored parts turn white!? Also looking at an angle to the side anything light blue turns a light brown!? Then as I'm viewing something as in Apple Discussions each box of replies alternate white then light blue and so on but looking at normal distant as you type each box are white. You have to lean back in your chair, twice the distance back to actual see the blue box then white box!?
What's that all about? I have noticed this on the new 20" iMacs too but the three new 24" iMacs are great just like my Rev A G5 iMac of 4 years. Are these inferior screen problems anything to do with them being TN panels as I've just read about?
I really don't know where to go from here as the screen quality is important. I'm use to the great screen quality of my old G5 iMac and don't want to go down in quality for the sake of moving from a Mac PowerPC to an Intel Core 2 Duo even though I need this for EyeTV hybrid and all the features of iLife '09 etc.
I don't want to spend a huge amount for an Apple display as I might as well get the entry level 24" iMac. The main reason for not getting the new iMac is I don't like the glossy screen, although today I heard there is an option for a 24" matt screen... any truth in that? Then again will I be able to return the new Mac mini I've only had for 6 days for a 24" iMac?
Other suggestions seen here is turning my G5 iMac into a stand-a-loan monitor or maybe a 20-year-old CRT 19" TV I have can be used as a monitor and if so what connections are needed? Any ideas on these options?
So buying the new Mac mini has created a lot of unexpected problems. I thought as asked about before getting it was told any monitor would have the same picture quality as my old G5 iMac, but after the fact found out this is not the case.
Thanks for the read & any ideas/thoughts much appreciated...AFAIK Hmmm Googled "As Far As I Know"... So far I've tried three monitors (all with gradient problem) so it looks like you are correct. I'll try a couple more today as if I need to return my Mac mini with Philips monitor need to do soon for a 24" new iMac even though the Mac mini is not at fault. I'll have to get use to the glossy screen. While writing this an item "iMac or MacBook display too glossy? Apply inexpensive non-glare LCD protective film" has appeared in MacDailyNews.
http://macdailynews.com/index.php/weblog/comments/20561/
Thanks for the idea using my G5 as a monitor but maybe quite an involved process?
It's a shame in all my research before buying a monitor no salesperson mentioned TN display panels. Mind you since the problem no salesperson has said they know about TN display panels or better monitors, just saying any monitor will work with the new Mac mini. Very frustrating! -

I bought a new Macbook pro in 02/26/2013 from Apple Canadian Ices -003. Than I could not use it, because my cursor uncontrollably was jumping around the screen, I was resumed my trackpad become bulging, Than on11/25/ 2013 they changed my trackpad for free, because was manufactoring defect, but not the bulging battery. They said that is do not needed. Since that my cursor is quiet often quivering, I think my Macbook has serious manufacturing defect. But they said no, during a year period I went to the genius bar at least 15 times, with this and similar problems. I went there yesterday, with different problems, and they said one of the screws came off from my truck pad, therefore they need to fix it and change it. I said: - What, how, what is the real problem? A screw does not comes off just like that? They will change my trackpad again, but not the battery. They said has to rebuild the operation system, I'm saving all of my data right now! I would like to exchange the battery too, or maybe get a new Macbook. My Macbook is 2010 China model. How long I would have this trackpad problem? What are you suggesting?
If it's a 2010 as you say towards the end of your post, it's out of warranty. The battery isn't covered in that case. Why don't you just buy a new battery if that's your concern? If it's a 2013 as you say up at the top, it shouldn't have a bulging battery. How do you know it does? If it really does, ask for the store manager and explain the problem.
