[SOLVED]differences between kdesu and sudo?

so I recently installed Arch Linux and I have KDE installed. I noticed it comes with kdesu, and i was wondering what the difference is between that and just regular sudo. One thing I noticed (not sure if this is intended or just buggy on my computer,) but kdesu can only seem to run gui programs and sudo can only seem to run console programs.
Side note, I cant figure out how to get su - to use console programs, it keeps telling me it cant reach the X server. Dunno if I can get help with that as well?
example:
[root@Gabe-Arch ~]# kate
QDBusConnection: session D-Bus connection created before QCoreApplication. Application may misbehave.
kate: cannot connect to X server

Ok. The way karol said it made it seem like one or the other.
That's true, I asked where did you type 'kate' in: in the tty or in the terminal emulator in X. You can run both init 3 and 5 at the same time, but you can run a command in one of them at a time :-)
You got me right, WonderWoofy was providing a bigger picture.

What is the difference between #variable_name and :variable_name?

Hi!
What is the difference between #variable_name and :variable_name?
I have found that if we use alphanumeric variable then :variable_name return value in quotes but #variable_name without quotes.
Why it does not work in the same way for variable default values when variable is used in filter? (It works in mapping)
I use variable in filter like T.OUT_DATE>convert(datetime,:LAST_UPDATE_DATE,121)
When I use my variable in package and do refresh it works fine. But when I try to execute the same interface with variable default value I get error. Seems that variable name has been not changed to the value. It does not work with default value in quotes neither without quotes.
Any ideas how to solve that?
Thank you in advance!
Edited by: user13278245 on Sep 15, 2010 4:34 AM

Question is how to make it work with default value, when I execute interface standalone, not in package? And why it works in mapping but not in filter?
+ I have found that it works if source is Oracle. It doesn't work only for MS SQL source.

Key Configuration differences between SAP and ORACLE Financials

Hello,
After spending good 7 years in SAP related projects recently I started working in ORACLE Applications. I used to be an ORACLE programmer years back. To my surprise the same ORACLE Forms are still very much the heart of the ORACLE UI.
Then I thought what will be the key differences between ORACLE and SAP in terms of configuration elements. While I know a bunch of configuraion items in SAP , I am not sure about the same in ORACLE world. I am not even sure some of the configuration items that are available in SAP exists in ORACLE.
Does anyone know both sides of the coin ? The terminology and design ?
SAP has
Client,Company code, Business area, Functional Area, GL, Posting Key, Document Type.
I am trying to get the details of the equivalents of these in ORACLE.
Does anyone know it ?
For e.g , when you post to AP or AR in SAP , GL is updated automatically. In ORACLE you post to a AP Book or AR Book then Run a batch to move them to GL Book.
ORACLE uses SQLLoader to load data . You can write a PL SQL and update the tables directly, which is not the case in SAP. For dataloads and conversions, SAP uses BDC's ( though XI can be used but its slow).For ORACLE its the good old SQL and PlSQL combo.
What are the equivalents of the configuration elements in ORACLE world ?
Also what are the major differences between these two in terms of designing a financial system.
Does any one know ?

Genie,
I agree that a case is made on how well these two ERPs solve the day to day tasks before a company chooses one of these two. But my question is aimed at finance to begin with. You are going to need a general ledger for any company or government regardless of ERP. And how well you can drive the ledger to map your business is the key here.
The way ledger is built is around a business area ,company or country and is very tighly designed in SAP. I would like to know if there is any equivalent of the configuration items in ORACLE. I am more interested in terminology of ORACLE.
For example ,
SAP ====> ORACLE
GL ==> Book In ORACLE
Document Number ===> Invoice Number
Posting Period in SAP ==> Posting period In ORACLE
Most of the terms are finance terms , so they are common ( eg. an account number is an account number in ORACLE and SAP ) between two systems. I am interested in any specific thing that is available in ORACLE but not in SAP and vice verse.
thanks for the link you have provided.
Its very useful.

Graph axes assignment: performance difference between ATTR_ACTIVE_XAXIS and ATTR_PLOT_XAXIS

Hi,
I am using a xy graph with both x axes and both y axes. There are two possibilities when adding a new plot:
1) PlotXY and SetPlotAttribute ( , , , ATTR_PLOT_XAXIS, );
2) SetCtrlAttribute ( , , ATTR_ACTIVE_XAXIS, ) and PlotXY
I tend to prefer the second method because I would assume it to be slightly faster, but what do the experts say?
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Wolfgang,
thank you for your interesting question.
First of all I want to say, that generally spoken, using the command "SetCtrlAttribute"is the best way to handle with your elements. I would suggest using this command when ever it is possible.
Now, to your question regarding the performance difference between "SetCtrlAttribute" and "SetPlotAttribute".
I think the performance difference occures, because in the background of the "SetPlotAttribute" command, another function called "ProcessDrawEvents" is executed. This event refreshes your plot again and again in the function whereas in the "SetCtrlAttribute" the refreshing is done once after the function has been finished. This might be a possible reason.
For example you have a progress bar which shows you the progress of installing a driver:
"SetPlotAttribute" would show you the progress bar moving step by step until installing the driver is done.
"SetCtrlAttribute" would just show you an empty bar at the start and a full progress bar when the installing process is done.
I think it is like that but I can't tell you 100%, therefore I would need to ask our developers.
If you want, i can forward the question to them, this might need some times. Also, then I would need to know which version of CVI you are using.
Please let me now if you want me to forward your question.
Have a nice day,

Difference between Abort and Terminate

What is the difference between aborting and terminating a sequence?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Create a sequence with some steps in the setup, some in the main and some in the clean-up stepgroup. You should also add a subsequence with an equal setup. Call this sub from a main step in the MainSequence.
Terminate/Abort at a step in the main stepgroup of the subsequence. Look into the report for the result.
Hint: Give unique names to your steps (statements) that you see with one blink of an eye from which stepgroup the steps are.
hope this helps,

Difference Between SCA and SDA

Hi,
I am preaparing for the SAP Certification exam , my exam is on 20 of this month . Can anyone explain me the difference between SCA and SDA .How are they different from each other and the benefits of using them.
appreciate quick responses.

Hello,
Here u go ...
The Software Deployment Archive (SDA) is the delivery format for SAP applications in programming languages other than ABAP, for example applications of the J2EE Engine. It is an archive format that is compatible with ZIP and that can be used as a container for other archives. The SDA contains the manifest information, that is package-related data of the contained archive (e.g. jar, war) and an SAP manifest containing additional information about the software logistics. Larger entities can be created in SCA format in the second step from the different SDAs. A Software Component Archive (SCA) is the physical representation of a version of a software component. It contains a selection of SDAs that describe a precise version. Updating an SCA always results in a new version of the software component.
I hope this solves your question
Thanks

Difference between 32DT2U1 and 32DT2UL1?

Before I involve Toshiba tech support, anyone know the difference between 32DT2U1 and 32DT2UL1? I have the latter, and can't find hide nor hair of a mention on the support site, but can find some limited information on the non-L part number.
It's a nice 32" set, fine picture, abysmal "Media Player" (I wouldn't have bothered adding the USB port for photos only, myself), but I was hoping to find a "real" manual (the "Easy Setup Guide" doesn't exactly tell you anything useful about the ) and maybe a complete spec sheet...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If your looking for a manual here is the .pdf of it for your model. http://cdgenp01.csd.toshiba.com/content/support/manuals/userguides/su2979064/32C110U_40E210U_46G310U... It has much more information than what came with the tv..
Personally they should of had a download for the manual. How they have it sucks, printer friendly, should of been a button to download manual.. But it is viewable on-line, a plus.

Difference between 3G and Dual Mode?

When I go through cellular network options, I get 3 options as GSM, 3G and Dual Mode. What is the difference between the Dual Mode and 3G, and what exactly is this Dual Mode? When should I choose that over 3G?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Dual mode means that the phone will connect to either 2G (GSM) or 3G connections. It will try for a 3G connection if it's strong enough, otherwise, it will go to a 2G connection.
The difference between 3G and dual mode, is in 3G mode, the phone will only try to connect to a 3G connection.
In most cases, dual would be better. If you are in an area will really strong and constitent 3G, then it's probably better to be on 3G.

What is the difference between form6i and form10g

Respected Guru's,
I actually want to know the difference between form6i and form 10g.
Is it bad or good to work on form 6i as compare to form 10g.
plez help me.

The biggest difference is between 6i and 10g is that 6i is client-server and 10g is Webforms(although you can run 6i forms as web).
It's always best to use the latest version: new features, solved bugs and of course support wise.

Is there difference between QRFC_RESTART_ALLOWED and RSQIWKEX?

Hi,
Is there difference between QRFC_RESTART_ALLOWED and RSQIWKEX ?
Please clarify me.
Regards
Jeongbok.

Hi Jeong,
To enable automatic reprocessing of failed messages, 2 reports
RSXMB_RESTART_MESSAGES and RSQIWKEX should be executed as background jobs.
To solve the problem that leads to the blocking of the queues we generally try to reach the receiver and restart messages from transaction SMQ2 .This requires to change a parameter in the Integration Engine
configuration to be changed (category MONITOR and parameter
QRFC_RESTART_ALLOWED)
whereas The RSQIWKEX program,
which you can also schedule as a batch job, is available for activating the QIN Scheduler as of qRFC Version 6.10.030.
We should only schedule the program if the automatic processing of the inbound queue does not function correctly. Note
that we must only use the RSQIWKEX program of qRFC Version 6.10.030 or higher for this purpose.

Shibani

Difference between TCD and SAPGUI

Hi all,
What are the differences between TCD and SAPGUI in ecatt?
And also which one is better? Should I used tcd mode of ecatt for any transaction? Or there is any limitations for the same. same for SAPGUI?

Hello Lalit,
TCD & SAPGUI modes have their own advantages & disadvantages. So their usage depends on their requirement in the recording.
Some of the differences between TCD & SAPGUI are as follows -
1. TCD recording mode can run in background as well as foreground.
- SAPGUI recording mode requires GUI playback. But it can run with or without user intervention.
2. TCD is fastest mode of recording as well as replay.
-SAPGUI is very slow.
3. TCD cannot be used for ENJOY transactions (those who have activex controls) where the usage of activex controls is mandatory. It is suitable for simpler transactions where directly values and be placed and results can be seen.
-SAPGUI work with ENJOY transactions. It should be selected only when the usage of the controls is mandatory.
You will conclude more about the TCD & SAPGUI usage gradually as you will work with transaction in eCATT.
More details can be found from the following weblogs -
1. eCATT Introduction

2. TCD Recording Mode
