[Solved] Help, need a theme manager....

I am currently using Awesome. When I start Vlc it uses some sort of square / grayish theme that is pretty ugly to be honest...
Also I use drracket and it has the same theme...
I also remember reading sth about qt3 / qt4 themes (I think KDE uses them), but have no Idea how to manage these...
So finally my question :
Is there any theme manager (preferably sth simple & light weight) that I can install that sets these qt3/qt4 themes ?
I would really like to get rid of the gray boxy look....
thanks in advance

Lost original disks-will buying Tiger solve the need for them?

I have lost the original disks for my iMac Flatscreen. Now I need to re-install the system so that I can get the computer to start up again.
1. Will brand new Tiger disks solve my need for the original disks?
2. My husband & I have owned probably 20 Macintoshes over the years and we have many sets of original disks on the shelves. Perhaps my lost ones are mingled in there. But how do I tell which ones go with the iMac Flatscreen? Neither the disks nor the packaging indicates what computer they go with. Is there some sort of code I can refer to?
3. What I really need my Flatscreen for is to run OS 9 and non-Intel Mac applications. Can Tiger accommodate me?

Hello "O":
Welcome to Apple discussions.
I have lost the original disks for my iMac
Flatscreen. Now I need to re-install the system so
that I can get the computer to start up again.
1. Will brand new Tiger disks solve my need for the
original disks?
A retail version of OS X (10.4) will install the operating system without problem. If you go that route, I suggest wiping the HD first - although an erase and install will do that as well (overkill, I suppose).
2. My husband & I have owned probably 20 Macintoshes
over the years and we have many sets of original
disks on the shelves. Perhaps my lost ones are
mingled in there. But how do I tell which ones go
with the iMac Flatscreen? Neither the disks nor the
packaging indicates what computer they go with. Is
there some sort of code I can refer to?
I have a G4 (flat panel). My original software came on two DVDs - gray in color and labeled iMac Software install (1 of 2 and 2 of 2). My G5 software install DVD has "G5" on it.
3. What I really need my Flatscreen for is to run OS
9 and non-Intel Mac applications. Can Tiger
accommodate me?
iMac
flatscreen Mac OS X (10.3)
OS X 10.4 (Tiger) will certainly run non-Intel applications. I have not run OS 9 for years, but I understand that OS 9 applications will run under OS X 10.4 (see this knowledge base article):

P.S. The next version of the operating system (code named Leopard) is due for release later this year.

I should note that I didn't expect it to work out of the box, but so far I've been unable even to figure out what the problem is, no less solve it.
I've tried my best to go through the code, looking for typos and such, but I haven't had any luck and much of what happens I don't really understand.
So please, if you can, I'd very much appreciate a little help.
Best regards.
NB:
Some might conclude that this script does something illegal. In actuality that is not so, just make that clear. Also, testing from outside Denmark, will probably not be possible.

You know a lot more than we do: like where you then found this code, and what it is supposed to do.
My only first thought without looking through random code that allegedly serves some unknown purpose and comes from some unknown source is that the shebang is ambiguous: it may be a python 2 script while /usr/bin/python is now python 3.
I've pretty much concluded that python 3.3 is the right choice, sp that should not be a problem, as for what it does, it uses "rtmpdump" to record or "rip" video from a danish site "dr.dk", which is a public service television network.
I have it from reliable sources that this actually works, or at least did at some point, on Windows machines, but of course i'm on linux, and that complicated matters.
All in all, as I understand it, what the script really does, is retrieving the relevant rtmp link. The rest is up to "rmtpdump" which I should be able to manage.
In any case, I'm not really that concerned with learning what the script does at this point, but rather what the error mean.
The only actual error description I see is: "TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable" and I haven't a clue what that implies. I've read through the script, but haven't been able to find any obvious flaws..

[Solved] help needed with wireless setup (ralink 2860 driver)

Hi,
I'm new to Arch so please be gentle ;-)
I recently upgraded hoping to find improved support for my wireless. I now find that the kernel recognises and loads the appropriate module:
[root@akoya ~]# uname -a
Linux akoya 2.6.29-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 8 12:47:56 UTC 2009 i686 Pentium(R)
[root@akoya ~]# lspci | grep Net
05:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2860
[root@akoya ~]# lsmod | grep 2860
rt2860sta 514808 1
I checked over the kernel source and the rt2680sta module is the code from ralink cleaned up for the 2.6.29 kernel. (I tried building the ralink release but it needs patching for 2.6.29)
However getting the thing to connect using WPA is another thing altogether
[root@akoya ~]# ifconfig ra0 up
[root@akoya ~]# wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i ra0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
[root@akoya ~]# dhcpcd ra0
ra0: dhcpcd 4.0.12 starting
ra0: waiting for carrier
ra0: timed out
I'm not even sure if iwconfig is communicating with this driver (though I can find my router using "iwlist ra0 scan"):
[root@akoya ~]# iwconfig ra0 essid "sodor"
[root@akoya ~]# iwconfig
ra0 RT2860 Wireless ESSID:"" Nickname:"RT2860STA"
Mode:Auto Frequency=2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:21:91:FE:DA:97
And if I try to configure using wicd I see the following log when trying to connect to the wireless:

It is driving me crazy being tied to a cable so I'd really like to get this working... but I'm really not sure what to try. Do I need to rebuild wpa_supplicant? If so is there a package-based way of doing that in arch?
Thanks in advance.

OK... to answer my own questions ...
two questions:
1. Does this mean support for the ralink driver is included by default or *not* included by default?
It seems it means *not*
2. If I uncomment this line then makepkg refuses to build the package because the config file's md5 is no longer valid. How then am I *meant* to make modifications to the build configuration?
right or wrong I used makepkg -g to generate checksums for my modified config file and pasted these into PKGBUILD. It then builds happily. After installing I can run wpa_supplicant with no args and confirm ralink is in the list of drivers. Excellent. But still no success.
Two things I have noticed:
1. wicd places quotes "" around my pre-shared key. If I run wpa_supplicant from the command line and use the conf file created by wicd it reports the PSK as being unparsable. If I remove the quotes then the file is parsed correctly.
2. It doesn't solve my problem :-(

Emergency help needed re media manager

Hi all,
Hopefully somebody can help me with this.
I am due to start an audio mix on a project for a client tomorrow. He currently has the FCP project on his Mac Pro but due to recording to a tascam portable recorder on set all his audio files are called audio1, audio2 etc. He has a folders on his drive with each days recordings so there are many folders which all contain files called audio1 etc.
I asked him to put his picture lock sequence onto an external drive using media manager but it doesn't seem to able to handle the audio files since there are so many with the same name from different folders so the external now has only one file with each name where on the picture lock sequence there are many audio clips called audio1 for example.
I hope this makes sense.
Please post here if you can help me.
Thanks in advance
Michael

If you have a media card in your BlackBerry then the easier way to transfer items to it is to just click on the My Computer icon and drag and drop them to the appropriate folder. Music to the \blackberry\music folder and so on. As for the problem with the Media manager, it should be remedied by installing the OS for your device to your computer.

Help needed with Media Manager

I recently purchased the Blackberry Curve, 8310 and downloaded the most updated version of Media Manager. While connected to my PC with the USB cable, the desktop manager fires up, updates my email accounts, etc. and seems to be able to communicate with the Blackberry. However, when I then open up Media Manager to transfer photos, it does not recognize the phone connection. Any help in defining what I'm missing here would be appreciated.

Help needed on activity management

I have created an activity in WEBUI for myself and when i try to verify the same in INBOX, the task is not available. I am new to this. can some one tell me what config changes are needed at the backend.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Udaya

Hi Uday,
If you require your activity to be displayed in your inbox, then you need to do Grooupware Integration.
Groupware Integration is used to integrate CRM Activity Management with the groupware applications, that is Microsoft Outlook and Lotus Notes, allowing you to synchronize business activities and tasks in your CRM calendar and your own groupware calendar.
To map the CRM statuses to groupware statuses, you Customize for CRM by choosing Customer Relationship Management -> Transactions -> Settings for Activities -> Mapping of Activities to Groupware -> Map Activity Status to Groupware.
For more information on this go throught the following link
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm60/helpdata/en/5c/e90d3888a11c10e10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm]
Wish this was useful to you

[SOLVED] Help needed with suspend2ram with acpid lid script

Hello
I'm hoping someone can help with this, I'm obviously configuing something incorrectly.
I wish to have my machine suspend to ram upon closing the lid, which I've managed to acomplish with pm-utils and acpid.
Here's my lm-lid.sh from /etc/acpi/actions:
#! /bin/sh
# lid button pressed/released event handler
#/usr/sbin/laptop_mode auto
/usr/sbin/pm-suspend
As you can see; I have commented out the penultimate line, this is what was present in the file as default, this didn't cause the machine to do anything, so I added the bottom line to call pm-suspend.
My machine suspends fine, however, upon waking again, it resumes for about 3 seconds, then suspends again... after which it wakes up fine.
So esentially I have to wake it up twice.
I'm sure it's probably something stupid I'm doing, I'd just appreciate any words on this that may help!

[SOLVED] Help needed with ACPI accelerometer - Acer Iconia Tab W501

Hi,
I am trying to get the accelerometer working on my Acer Iconia Tab W501
In windows, it reported as a BMA150 device, so I have that driver loading on boot.
After months of googling and making a mess in /sys, I still have not got the device working. I was working under the assumption that the device hangs off the i2c bus, but a "lucky google" today uncovered that it is showing up through acpi - acpid is present in my daemons array of rc.conf and the kernel module acer_wmi is also loaded.
The device is certainly sending signals to the kernel. Upon boot, dmesg ends up as follows:
[ 11.689709] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready
[ 12.108374] EXT4-fs (sda2): re-mounted. Opts: commit=0

[ 22.459133] wlan0: no IPv6 routers present
Now, if I rotate the device, and run dmesg again, I have the following:
[ 1255.189705] acer_wmi: Unknown function number - 5 - 1
[ 1257.363688] acer_wmi: Unknown function number - 5 - 1

[ 1308.653700] acer_wmi: Unknown function number - 5 - 1
[ 1308.784623] acer_wmi: Unknown function number - 5 - 1
acpi -V does not show the device:

Yet, running acpi_listen generates the following when the tablet is rotated:
PNP0C14:00 000000bc 00000000
PNP0C14:00 000000bc 00000000
PNP0C14:00 000000bc 00000000
PNP0C14:00 000000bc 00000000
So, it would seem the device is working and sending data to the kernel/drivers, it appears some config is needed to get it properly recognised and an entry in /dev generated.
Really hoping there is an acpi expert around who may be able to help me get the device properly recognised and configures, ideally, as a /dev/input/js*
Cheers.

There is no need to patch the kernel anymore as current kernels have the acer wmi accelerometer patch merged.
Ensure you have the kernel module acer_wmi loading and then the events should be propogated. acpi_listen should show the events.
Using the code from here: http://www.jezra.net/blog/Python_Joysti … ng_Gobject i have written a little daemon that monitors the accelerometer and automatically rotates the screen based on it's position.
Cheers.
[EDIT] Being a laptop, I am guessing the accelerometer is possibly on the hard drive?? used for shock protection?? So if that is the case, I am not sure you will be able to utilise it in the same way as a tablet's accelerometer. There are articles on the web for setting up hard drive accelerometers in linux. The other consideration you need is that the accelerometer may not be on acpi. It could be on the i2c bus (commonly where sensors such as fan speed, core temps etc are located), in which case you will need the i2c driver to get the accelerometer events recognised in the kernel (ensure i2c kernel modules are loaded). So check exactly how the kernel detects the accelerometer, is it on acpi or the i2c bus?[/EDIT]

[SOLVED] Help needed with iptables rule with unusual setup

Hi I recently setup hostapd on my netbook so I could share a wireless network with my phone and I'm having trouble because my netbook is also hosting a Jetty sever (Subsonic media streamer).
My setup is as follows
[CABLE MODEM]===[WIRED ROUTER]=====[NETBOOK] ))))) [PHONE]
The wired router provides the DHCP server.
On my netbook I created a (br0) bridge between eth0 and wlan0 and started hostapd. That all works fine when I'm not trying to host my Jetty server on my netbook.
The netbook has the IP 192.168.0.8
The phone has the IP 192.168.0.6
I do not want to give the Jetty server root permissions just so it can run on port 80. So instead I start it instead on port 4040 and then use a iptables rule to redirect connections to port 80 to port 4040.
Before I setup hostapd on machine I used to use the following.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 4040
However when I'm using hostapd and try to access websites on my phone its web browser is ALWAYS REDIRECTED to my jetty server. I'm not really surprised at this as the rule I mentioned above is for any destination or any source.
I tried this rule:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d localhost -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 4040
This didn't work. On my phone I could access websites as expected but nobody (tried external from network and internally) could access the jetty server on port 80. Does anyone know why this rule doesn't work?
I tried this rule:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING \! -s 192.168.0.6 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 4040
This rule worked (Redirect port 4040 connections to port 80 if the connection isn't from my phone). But this is NOT very good at all as it means I would need a separate rule for every wireless device that connected to my netbook (via hostapd). Also if the IP address of my phone ever changes this rule becomes useless too!
Does anyone have any ideas?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Well looks like I fixed my own problem.
I added a LOG target in the PREROUTING chain like so
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j LOG --log-prefix 'cheesy-redirect'
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 80
When I looked at /var/logs/everything I noticed this.
dan-netbook kernel: cheesy-redirectIN=br0 OUT= PHYSIN=eth0 MAC=00:26:18:73:ea:28:00:09:5b:5d:0a:33:08:00 SRC=178.102.41.92 DST=192.168.0.3 LEN=52 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=46 ID=51411 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=48219 DPT=80 WINDOW=49640 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0
The destination is 192.168.0.3 ! Which is very very weird. This the IP address I had told my router to give my eth0 card in the past when I wasn't using a network bridge (br0). I was connected to the network using 192.168.0.8 on br0. The eth0 interface wasn't assigned an IP address.
192.168.0.3 was also the IP address I setup for static port forwarding (which I forgot about) so when I accessed my jetty server from outside my network all packets would of been forwarded to 192.168.0.3
I should never of received those packets as I was 192.168.0.8 not 192.168.0.3 at the time of logging so how I even received these packets is a mystery to me. Maybe the router software is buggy
Fixing was pretty straight forward I changed the port forward to go to 192.168.0.8 and then tried connecting to the jetty server externally and noted in the log
cheesy-redirectIN=br0 OUT= PHYSIN=eth0 MAC=00:25:d3:46:4d:0d:00:09:5b:5d:0a:33:08:00 SRC=178.102.41.92 DST=192.168.0.8 LEN=52 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=46 ID=65326 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=33597 DPT=80 WINDOW=49640 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0
So the correct redirect rule is
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d 192.168.0.8 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 80
which works nicely
One last question though. Does anyone know how I can use a hostname rather than 192.168.0.8 which points to whatever the IP address of br0 is set to? localhost points to 127.0.0.1 so that doesn't work.

[Solved] Help needed with getting fonts antialiased.

Greetings. I'm in the process of installingArch and I must be missing something as fonts just aren't antialiasing. Any help would be appreciated. I'm using the Fonts guide on the wiki. Here's the steps I did:
pacman -Rd libxft
yaourt -S fontconfig-lcd cairo-lcd
pacman -S libxft-lcd
Freetype is installed and I linked what I could to /etc/fonts/conf.d/:
10-autohint.conf 40-nonlatin.conf 65-nonlatin.conf
10-sub-pixel-rgb.conf 45-latin.conf 69-unifont.conf
20-fix-globaladvance.conf 49-sansserif.conf 70-no-bitmaps.conf
20-unhint-small-vera.conf 50-user.conf 80-delicious.conf
29-replace-bitmap-fonts.conf 51-local.conf 90-synthetic.conf
30-metric-aliases.conf 60-latin.conf README
30-urw-aliases.conf 65-fonts-persian.conf
I've tried changing settings in the KDE control center from "System Settings" to Enabled, started a new app. But no luck. I've created a basic ~/.fonts.conf that has antialiasing and hinting, logging out and logging in again to no avail. What got me was that fontconfig didn't install a 10-antialias.conf:
10-autohint.conf 25-unhint-nonlatin.conf 60-latin.conf
10-no-sub-pixel.conf 29-replace-bitmap-fonts.conf 65-fonts-persian.conf
10-sub-pixel-bgr.conf 30-metric-aliases.conf 65-khmer.conf
10-sub-pixel-rgb.conf 30-urw-aliases.conf 65-nonlatin.conf
10-sub-pixel-vbgr.conf 40-nonlatin.conf 69-unifont.conf
10-sub-pixel-vrgb.conf 45-latin.conf 70-no-bitmaps.conf
10-unhinted.conf 49-sansserif.conf 70-yes-bitmaps.conf
20-fix-globaladvance.conf 50-user.conf 80-delicious.conf
20-unhint-small-vera.conf 51-local.conf 90-synthetic.conf
Is this the problem? Obviously I'm missing a step here. Any ideas, what do I need to do?

Dallied through the thread and didn't find anything. No luck thus far. Looks like this is a system-wide problem as KDM in not antialiasing. Change to a new ~/.fonts.conf:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
<const>rgb</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="hinting" >
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
<const>hintslight</const>
</edit>
</match>
<match target="font" >
<edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >

</edit>
</match>
<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="lcdfilter">
<const>lcddefault</const>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
but the problem persists. Argh, this is tough. Did I possibly forget something?

Help Needed w/Desktop Manager 4.6 & Outlook Calendar Synch

Everything was working just fine prior to my holiday break. Came back this morning and attempted to synch my BBCurve (running 4.5.0.81) with my Desktop Manager (v4.6) and it is just skipping over the calendar sync portion. No error message. Everything else is synching just fine. Deleted and reinstalled Desktop software -- that didn't work. Disabled calendar sync and re-enabled -- that didn't work. cleared the BB Calendar of all entries and now have no calendar entries on the device. HELP!

I deleted the Intellisync folder, and reset the Desktop Manager configuration settings and I received the following Intellisync error message:
The operation terminated unexpectedly while reading from Microsoft Outlook Calendar
Then I tried to sync just from Outlook Calendar to Device -- that failed
Then I tried to sync just from Device to Outlook Calendar -- that failed as well
Then I deleted Intellisync folder again and rebooted my computer
Successfully synced from Device to Outlook
Tried to sync from Outlook to Device and it appears to be running, says one moment please and nothing happens and it returns to the Desktop Manager with no error message. Grrrrr.....

[Solved] Help, need a theme manager....
