[SOLVED] Dock and Compositemanager? Which combination is the best one

Hello everyone
I'm want to set up an desktop environment with OpenBox and SLiM. But what I should use for the composite manager and what is the best dock?
maybe xcompmgr and AWN ? or something else?
I would be very grateful when somebody can help me out of this problem

I find awn is the best dock right now. Best combination of features and stability. I used dockbarx standalone for a while but had some annoying issues with it (it would refuse to pin certain applications for no reason). Any compositer should work. Docky has annoying bugs that the devs seem to ignore (such as not being able to launch nautilus without workarounds).

  • Which combination is the right one ? WL 6.0 RedHat7.x JDK Version

    Hello there,
    it seems there are a lot of problems concerning installation and running
    of WL6.0 on a RedHat System 7.x
    So what is the "right" combination of JDKs, RedHat7.x and WL6 ?
    Is it possible to use the IBM JDK 1,3 instead of the SUN JDK ?
    Which SUN JDK 1.3.x is really working allright with WL6 and especially
    with RedHat 7.x ?
    Is there any FAQ to these topics ?
    Thanks

  • Which tool is the best one for debug java program?

    thanks for your help

    Eclipse 2.0 (www.eclipse.org) debugger can take advantage of the Java 1.4 JVM Hot Swap facility allowing you to modify your code while debugging it so you can try something, change it, try it again without having to even restart your program. Great for server-side development.
    Not a suprising facility since Eclipse is positioned by IBM as the replacement of Visual Age for Java which will not see further development. And unlike VAJ, it does not depend upon extremely tight coupling between IDE and JVM, it uses a file-based approach rather than the single workspace file mechanism of VAJ, allow it to have greater integration with many, many tools.
    Its free, open source and is supported by a consortium including IBM, BEA WebGain, Borland, Red Hat, SuSe, Rational, TogetherSoft and Object Technology. They position it as the Apache of development tools. Some of these guys obviously want to sell you their high end plugins (Rational XDE is one good example) while others seem to be best servered by making sure their own IDE's fully support Eclipse plugins (like Borland and WebGain).

  • Which event is the best one to put JS for HIDING the pages?

    Hello
    I have developed a interactive form, the back end system is SAP and ERP system.
    The form is launching on the browser, am hiding 2 & 3 pages of 4 page adobe form, working fine(if popup do not ooccurs, pls. read further), but in some exceptional scenarios, we are throwing a popup from our SAP, that popup will be take place on the middle of the screen position and above the adobe form (i mean, the adobe form is become dull in color and inactive), so, when user CLICKS the okay button on the popup, ALL OF SUDDEN the hidden 2 & 3 pages are displaying/coming out from hide state!!
    I wrote the JavaScript for conditional hiding the 2 & 3 pages on docReady event of my form level, say, my form name is VISITOR, i mean, its the TOP MOST node, so, i put cursor here and selected it and wrote script in its docReady event.
    Pls. let me know which is the good event to hide for all the user session, is it INITIALIAZATION or formReady or layourrEADY?
    Thank you

    There is none. Whatever you do to get rid of the older versions will inevitably do damage to shared components and other stuff of the new versions as well. That's just how it is with this approach... Uninstall the older versions, run the cleaner tool then reinstall CC 2014.

    I cannot log into Adobe Reader through my iphone using the Adobe ID and password which work on the website.

    Hi Will,
    That's great that you could sign in now.
    I think issue you faced in signing was because email verification was not done before. And when you signed from web client, you might have received a note asking you to do verification. It solved the logging issues you were facing on iPhone as well.

    Thanks

    On each of the phones you're gonna use a new Apple ID for iCloud: turn off Contacts, Calendars, etc. for iCloud. You'll be prompted to keep the data or delete it from the phone, then turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account...Settings>iCloud...scroll down...delete account. Then, setup iCloud using the new Apple ID, turn on iMessage & Facetime.
    This will have no affect on the ID you share for iTunes content, & you can continue to do so.

    I'm going to be a senior this year and my school is switching over to the iPad for classroom activities. Which iPad is the best for taking notes, researching, studying, reading, etc?

    I Recommend the iPad Mini Retina, it's not to big, and not to small. It has the speed of the iPad Air due to it having the same 64 Bit chips. ( And it's a lot cheaper!!) I have one myself and it's perfect for my school work!

  • Which tool is the best to develop stored procedure?

    Hello everyone,
    which tool is the best to develop and debug stored procedure in oracle9i/10g?
    Thanks

    > Now i am using sqlplus to develop procedures. But I can not debug them.
    How do you debug??
    Bad programmers tend to need and use a debugger a lot.
    I learned to program back when you were only allowed 3 compiles and link due to mainframe CPU costs. The 3rd build was the production one. If you could not cut it, you could not become a Programmer. (back then it still carried a lot of meaning and yes, people spoke of Programmers using capitals)
    If you need to debug your code regularly, then you have a more serious problem. A problem of not writing PROPER MODULARISED code. A problem of not tackling programming problems LOGICALLY - by reducing the complex problem into a set of smaller problems and solving each of those in turn.
    Having to trace code step by step, insert break points, and all that... Debugging must be an exception. If it is not, you must seriously consider your programming techniques and better your design skills. Get back to programming 101 fundamentals.

  • I have an iphone 5, and the battery is so bad! I was just wonder if anyone had used an external battery before? are they good? can they do damage to your phone? what's the best one to get? any help would be great thanks!

    I'd just like to say that ahs70's post on Dec 1, 2013 at 1:17am on Pg. 9 worked for me as well: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5338609?start=120&tstart=0
    If your iPhone's battery is acting up you need to determine if it's a software issue or a hardware/battery issue.  To do that, after syncing your iPhone, erase/hard reset all data and settings from your iPhone to what it was from the factory as new.  This can be found in Settings/General/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings.  Then test it out for a day or two.  If it's still acting up then it's likely a hardware issue and you will need to get your battery replaced.  If your warranty is done than check out this link to get a battery kit to replace your iPhone battery yourself:  http://www.ifixit.com/Store/iPhone/iPhone-5-Replacement-Battery/IF118-001#produc tDescription
    If your iPhone is now working properly after hard resetting it than it's most likely a software issue.  This battery issue only started after upgrading to the new iOs7, so it is obviously related to the update not properly installing itself.  What has worked for me and many others is to manually update to iOS 7.0.4 using the full downloaded version of the update which is about 1.32 Gigs.
    But first you need to find out what model of iPhone you have, click here to determine if it's GSM or CDMA: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Then go here and scroll down to download the iOS 7.0.4 complete update for your device:  http://www.downloadios7.org/download-ios-7-0-4-ipsw-file.html
    Then scroll up on the download page and follow the instructions of updating your iPhone manually following the instructions below:  "IPSW with iTunes"
    And your done.
    Problem solved.
    I only posted this because it was a very frustrating problem that no one really seemed to figure out a solution for.
    I hope this helps.

  • Which battery was the best for endurance for Satellite A100-999

    Hi
    I have just been given an A100-999 and I wanted to know which battery was the best for endurance.
    From what I have seen it is the pa3400u-1brs but i just wanted confirmation as I am planning to buy it in Japan as it is probably cheaper.
    Also, is there any information on how long this battery lasts?
    thanks

    Hi there,
    this battery would fit for your machine 100%. I have the same one in almost the same machine. Dont worry, just buy it.
