[SOLVED] Evince auto reload under XFCE

Hi,
i switched recently from Gnome to XFCE and I'm missing the automatic reload feature of Evince when the .pdf has changed on disk.
It was very comfortable when writing Latex-Documents with Texlipse. Is there anything i could do to get this feature working again?
Thanks

Safari 5.1 strange auto-reloading behavior for tabs in the background

hi guys.
I have been encountering this strange behavior recently. I had thought it could be something wrong with my system, until yesterday i upgraded my Safari for Windows to the v.5.1 on a Windows XP laptop, and found the same issue. Now i guess I can be quite certain this is a safari issue.
System info:
1. Macbook Pro 17", OSX 10.6.8, 64bit boot (i have 8GB RAM).
2. Safari (Mac) is the lastest version (as updated by the Auto update), run in the default 64bit mode.
3. The windows machine is an old Thinkpad T60 with Windows XP Pro SP3. The Safari for windows is Safari 5.1 (7534.50), also updated by auto update.
4. I have not installed any Safari extensions/plugs that feature an auto-reloading -- as such behavior was never seen before i upgrade to Safari 5.1
Since i mostly work on mac the mac has been kept most updated. But the windows machine which i use now and then, i don't update everything very frequently. And the earlier Safari 5.0 worked fine without the current issue.
Symptoms
1. Let's say I have 1 Safari window open with 5 tabs, and I have been working on the 4th tab for a while, and left the other 4 tabs "idling" in the background.
2. And then i want to switch to another tab: click on that tab, and that tab will come to the foreground while being automatically refreshed.
3. It looks to me this behavior happens after the inactive tabs have been idling longer than a certain period of time - then if you switch to them, they will be switched to and in the same time auto-reloaded. But I still don't know how long it needs for the "idling" before an auto-reloading "threshold" is triggered.
4. In the beginning this was just on the Mac Safari (and i hadn't updated safari on the windows). But after I updated safari for WIN yesterday, i found the same behavior today.
5. I checked all the Preferences settings and didnt find any option that indicates this behaviors.
Guys. any ideas? anyone have the same trouble? Thanks a lot guys. This is really annoying.

I'm running Safari 5.1 / SL v10.6.8 on one Mac with Glims installed and I never have a problem with tabs auto reloading. You might want to give it a try.
It's free!

Once the software is installed you can access the settings from Safari / Preferences - Glims.
If you don't like the software you can use their uninstaller here.
Hi Carolyn thanks a lot for the idea.
The weird thing is... after i tried to uninstall and re-install a few apps the "auto-loading" behavior disappeared ... guess something was interfereing with safari 5.1...
But thanks for recommending Glims. I took a quick look at the website and it looks great. will do some more research before i start using it. Thanks for the recomm!

Im running a web-based CMS, that cycles through a number of pages, and wanted to know if there is an auto reload code option ( not plug-in ) that can restart previous page when connection failed.

I am running a web-based CMS that cycles through a number of pages, each for different times ( ranging from 40 seconds to 2 minutes )and is displayed in a number of shops. Every now and then our internet drops, and the page errors with connection failed. I’m wondering if there is anyway to auto reload the page as soon as the error connection failed is showing. auto-reload addon is not an option as this will interrupt the sequence.
The following error was encountered: 
 
<ul><li>Connection Failed</li></ul>

I want to allow redirects but not auto-reloading

I'm running Yosemite on a Mac Air, with fully-updated everything.
I'd like to stop pages reloading without my permission. This is usually an issue for me on news sites.
In FF preferences, the option to allow or disallow auto-reloading is tied to the option to redirect. I can allow or disallow both, but not allow one and not the other.
The net effect is, my news sites aren't automatically refreshing (yay), but other sites get stuck when a page redirect comes up. I play Scrabble online; now I have to manually allow a redirect with every play. Same with following Twitter links.
Is there some way to kill off the auto-reloads while still allowing redirects? Maybe a whitelist for redirects, as a secondary option?
Thanks!

I do not know if the browser can tell the difference because it depends on the DNS server to give redirect requests back to the browser. Actually it does, 301 or 302 vs new http get request.... anyway:
I found this add on: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/refreshblocker/ Refresh Blocker] and [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/noredirect/?src=search No Redirect] which both let you control what sites to allow if there are only a few sites.
This would only be a temporary work around however.

Auto payment under F110,

Hi SDN,
 While processing auto payment under F110, the adjustmemos are not getting adjusted. Only the negative figures are picked up from the vendors list an dnot the positives. On processing, a text appears as "***Exceptions******". When we double click and go in side and tick "Reallocate" only then, the adjustment happens. In a real time, we cannot go and tick "Reallocate", all the time. Kindly advise.
Thanks & Regards,
Kumar

 ENDIF.
TEXT-001 contains " ***** Exceptions******* ".
Kindly advise how to proceed.

Premiere doesn't auto reload footage.

Premiere Pro CC on OSX...
I am rendering out various 3d files from cinema 4D as a PNG image sequences and I am making small changes and re-rendering them. Premiere however does not auto reload them. I have to do the replace footage to clear the cache and bring them in.
I know After effects does this properly now, but is this a premiere bug/quirk/lack of functionality? Or Is this just me?

When I right-click on a file from the bin and select "Reveal in Finder," the correct file is shown. When double-click on a file, the source monitor shows the correct clip. The same goes for when a file is selected from the timeline. However, since the in and out points have been moved to a point after the clip is over, there is no video to display. So what I am wondering is: how did the in and out points get shifted, and if there is a way to fix it all at once, rather than manually changing each clip.

Safari auto reload

Every time I move between tabs on safari on my ipad, the page auto reloads. How do I disable this feature. Extremely frustrating because of reload when out of wifi zone, I waste time reloading on slow 3G networks and it also increases my bandwidth consumption. Kindly help with very annoying feature

It's even worse than that. When it reloads, if you were typing data in a form, such as the reply that I'm writing Right Now, Safari wipes out all your input and you get to start from scratch. That means you can't switch between browser tabs to research whatever it is you are typing.
It wouldn't even be that hard. Most such things are fairly simple HTML "forms", all it would need to do is store the content of those "form" fields when you tab away. So if it had to reload, it could repopulate your entered data from that. Forms are very simple, just any number of pairs of {fieldname, fieldcontent}. For instance the fieldname might be "Text" and the fieldcontent might be what you are reading right now. Preserving the state of this form I am entering here would take less than 1 kilobyte (0.001 megabytes).

[SOLVED] Post-installation issues with XFCE

I just installed Arch Linux on an old eee-1000H laptop with XFCE and Slim as login manager. I have a few post-installlation issues I just can't find out how to fix.
1. I'm using pulseaudio with XFCE and I would like to have a tray icon in the panel to control the volume etc. I know that there is the audio mixer plugin but that doesn't log into pulseaudio. I then installed pasystray-git from AUR and that seems to work fine but I can't get it to autolaunch at login. When I add it to the launcher it seems to start but it isn't showing up in the tray. I have to launch it manually after login then it shows up. What am i doing wrong or is this a bug?
2. I'm using kalu to notifications about updates etc. and it works fine but I can't perform updates from the drop-down menu in kalu I get an error saying:
Parsing /etc/pacman.conf ... ok
Creating kalu_updater... ok
Initializing kalu_updater... failed
Error: Failed to initialize: Authorization from PolicyKit failed
similar issue trying to launch for example gparted:
[af@andre-eee1000h ~]$ gparted_polkit
Error executing command as another user: No authentication agent found.
I have policykit installed and also policykit-gnome as well and it is running
[af@andre-eee1000h ~]$ ps x | grep polkit
2006 pts/0 S+ 0:00 grep polkit
and my user is added to sudo because I can launch gparted with sudo gparted. So what am I missing?

The autostart was a bit difficult in XFCE, I don't know why. maybe try to run it as a shellscript and redirect stderr, stdout and stdin all to /dev/null. I had some problems with strange broken pipes crashing applications under XFCE when run with autostart.
By the way, pasystray is not meant to control the volume, only to manipulate the connections between devices and streams.
I tried using volumeicon as well and I can't it to autolaunch when xfce starts either.

Is it possible to disable auto reloading, permanently, for one specific URL?

msnbc.com is supposed to auto-reload its home page every however often, 30 minutes I think. But the reload never stops, probably because of my AdBlock settings for the site. I want to permanently stop msnbc.com from reloading. I've searched thoroughly with many keywords, and though I've found many extensions that will reload pages or set auto-reload intervals, I can't find anything that *stops* auto-reload. I'd appreciate any help.

Mike,
Not sure if I completely understand your dilema. I don't know of any way to pause a FMR, however, I may be able to help with plan B. I have a widget called Repo Playbar that allows you to reposition the playbar AND show/hide any playbar buttons, including the play/pause button. Have a look here.

OnTv or something alike under XFCE

Hello,
Since kaffeine happens always problem, i use smplayer instead. but smplayer has no epg to forecast tv programs.
i have tried OnTv with xfce4-xfapplet-plugin, but it occurs some problem. OnTv cannot be loaded. i can't find any idea for OnTv under XFCE from google.
can anyone recommend some app like OnTv under XFCE?
Thank you!

@djszapi
hi,
the error message is very simple.
'OnTV' could not be loaded.
An internal error occurred and the applet could not be loaded.
that's all. and the icon is still the gnome foot.

[SOLVED] Thunar slow to start under xfce 4.10

Hi,
Today my xfce updated to 4.10 and Thunar was slow to start. So I opened up the smb-browse.mount file expecting to see automount set to true but in fact it was still on false. So it looks like the usual trick to fix slow startup of Thunar is not working for me.
I am certain that gvfs is still the issue though because if you open a terminal first and do
#gvfs-ls network:
there is a delay of similar length and any attempt to start thunar is instant

Found a work around by setting AutoMount=false in /usr/share/gvfs/mounts/network.mount

[Solved] systemd - Auto starting programs under specific tty

Is there any way to start a program on an empty tty?
Currently i run htop on tty11 and a log on tty12 using the default startup scripts with something like this,
htop:2345:respawn:/usr/bin/htop -d=10 > /dev/tty11
I've tried played around with systemd for a while but can't get it working. There doesn't seem to any documentation for launching anything except additional gettys, so i tried to modify one of the .service file for htop but didn't make any progress.
Does anyone else know how to get this working?
Thanks

Okay I figured out how to properly run services on systemd, here's the newest .service file
[Unit]
Description=htop on tty11

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/htop -d=100 > /dev/tty11 < /dev/tty11
Type=oneshot
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
And when running i get this
systemctl status htop.service
htop.service - htop on tty11

How to stop irritating auto-reloading of the tabs (pages) [i don't have any extensions or apps]

Seems like this problem appeared quite often, nevertheless i spent an hour in search of an answer surfing the net, alas, nothing..
Problem: since today Safari started to reload almost every single page whenever i switch between tabs or sometimes even while im stil on the page. Fot example - i'm watching a movie, stoped it - switched to facebook tab to reply to my friend, then back to the tab with the video & no sooner i get back as the page with video auto-refreshes itself & i have to load movie again & look for the place i stoped watching the video to continue!
Device & program version: Macbook Pro, bought in july, Safari Version 5.1 (6534.50), No extensions or apps installed, & pls dont' say that it happens on particular pages, i visited the same ones yesterday & everything was ok, since today it's working all weird, and happens within all pages. But in the same time no system - once it reloads the page, other time im switching between the same very tabs it doesn't.
This is unacceptable & completely useless. Why there are no comments from Apple or Safari team, as if the problem doesnt exist? Not speaking of the problem solving process or tips.
Please, if someone knows how to stop this nightmare - tell me!!
Apple-team, I would love to hear your comments & in fact receive some help and get this problem fixed.. :\
(P.S. - person with the same problem posted a message year before, no effective reply.. - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2356901?start=0&tstart=0 )
