[SOLVED] How to make settings in LXTerminal permanent?

This is what I'm trying to do with the LXTerminal: Change the text color, make the window 100% transparent (including frames) and make the window pop up in my upper left corner at startup.
This is what I can do, and what I need help with:
- I can make the LXTerminal launch at startup editing /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart, but not where I want it (only default).
- I can change the text color, and make the window transparent (including frames with the help of obconf), but after reboot the transparency is gone, and I get this black header on my window that I have to remove by a right click option. All settings is set manually in the LXTerminal GUI, not by command line.
I've been searching the internet for solutions, but non of them seems to work for me. Everything I came across referred to Openbox files that doesn't exist in my setup. I'm fairly new to Arch, so please bare with my ignorance. Relevant software I run: Xorg, LXDM and LXDE.

Openbox is part of the LXDE group - so if you installed the whole group (as is the default action) you should have it already
:: There are 20 members in group lxde:
:: Repository community
1) gpicview 2) libfm 3) lxappearance 4) lxappearance-obconf
5) lxde-common 6) lxde-icon-theme 7) lxdm 8) lxinput 9) lxlauncher
10) lxmenu-data 11) lxmusic 12) lxpanel 13) lxrandr 14) lxsession
15) lxshortcut 16) lxtask 17) lxterminal 18) menu-cache 19) openbox
20) pcmanfm
Enter a selection (default=all):
... and is the default LXDE windows manager - although you can use any other if you so like
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/LXDE
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Openbox
You may be able to do what you want with a keybinding in:
~/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml
or a custom .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart

How to make Highlighted links color permanent?

Simply, for example, in Wikipedia, I clicked a link in their page to a different page, then that link would have been highlighted as "has been selected or clicked" with different color (in this case: purple), while links not have been clicked before are in blue.
The problem is after a few week, the links the I have previously visited before which should have been in purple turned blue again indicating that that I have not visited this link before (but I already have). This seemingly seems like the cache have been reseted or cleared. But I have not cleared any cache. This could also be that the cache is full but I have not set any limit on the amount of content.
So my question is, how do I ensure that the link that have been visited remain highlighted permanently for the font color so that I do not make the mistake of visiting the linked page again?

Note that your System Details List shows that you have obsolete, no longer supported, preferences from previous Firefox versions.
You can delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js and user.js files to reset all prefs to the default value or reset these prefs to the default value via the right-click context menu on the <b>about:config</b> page or edit the prefs.js file and remove related line(s).
Your System Details List also shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some prefs on each start of Firefox.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created it, so normally it wouldn't be there.
you can check its content with a plain text editor if you didn't create this file yourself.
The user.js file is read each time you start Firefox and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.

How to make url portlet parameter permanent

I have set up a url portlet inside portal.
I put tags in the provider.xml file for an input parameter for my url portlet to use. (I used the <isMandatory>true</isMandatory> so I would be prompted inside portal for the value.)
So, when I add the url portlet to a portal page a window pops up and asks me to submit a value for the portlet to use.
The portlet runs sucessfully.
MY QUESTION: How can I make the value that the page creator enters permanent so that the url portlet automatically picks it up whenever the page is run?
My purpose is to be able to add this portlet to several different pages and have it use the value that was defined for it when the page was created.
I have read several articles, but I must be missing something. Any ideas are appreciated.

Hi,
You can make the following change in your provider.xml file.
<inputParameter class="oracle.portal.provider.v2.URLPortletParameter">
<name>csz</name>
<isMandatory>false</isMandatory>
<value>Set your value here</value>
<displayName>What location do you want a map for (City, State or Zip)?</displayName>
</inputParameter>
By doing so, it'll pick up the value from the provider.xml and append the value to the parameter in the URL, so that the constructed URL will have the parameter value without having to customize the page.
I hope this answers your question. Do feel free to come back here if you have any more problems.

How to make a VPN route permanent ?

I have a VPN between my office and a lab on the east coast and I can use the following command from my Terminal to enable the route in my Leopard Server:
route add -net 10.48.239.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.254
How can I make this a permanent route? At this time if I reboot the server I must get into the Terminal and use the following two lines to make everything work again:
sudo su
route add -net 10.48.239.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.254
Thanks for any information any of you may have.
By the way within 6 months I will be doing the same task on a new Snow Leopard Server so if there are differences please feel free to chime in.

If you're having to manually set VPN routes then you're doing something wrong.
It isn't clear from your post where you're doing this. You say you set this 'in my Leopard Server', but it's not clear whether that server is the VPN server on the east coast, a server in your office, or another server anywhere else.
Normally, the VPN server sends out a list of routes the client should use, so knowing the above will help narrow down where your problem lies.

How to make an ip assignment permanent...

I used to do this when I was running DHCP on my Netware server. I am now running DHCP on OES 11. I open the DNS/DHCP Mgmt Console and go to the DHCP (OES Linux) tab, but I don't have any method to make the assignment permanent. I only see a Lease tab with information about the ip address. What am I missing? How do I do this?

Hey Ken,
There is no option to change a dynamic assignment to a fixed one from within the Java management console (as the dynamic assignments are not written into eDirectory, but are written in the dhcp.leases file that is created on the server running dhcp services. The tool can only read that file to retrieve leases)
You do have the option to create a new manual assignment.
Cheers,
Willem

[SOLVED] How to make URxvt look like default XTerm?

I don't want to install terminus-font or something else. Just want to make XTerm and URxvt look equal.
I prefer URxvt over XTerm for its performance, but default URxvt looks ugly comparing to default XTerm: for example default bitmap font (fixed) is broken whereas it looks beatiful on XTerm.
Also colors in URxvt do not match to those in console and XTerm (which seem to be the same) - highlighted directories, executables, prompt, etc which seem to be darker.
How do I fix it?
Help is appreciated, as always.
Thanks.
Last edited by eruditorum (2012-12-07 09:35:23)

I believe the default xterm fonts are listed in /usr/share/X11/app-defaults/XTerm. I may be wrong but I think you want to specify the urxvt font as:
-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1
This will be incorrect if you do not have the xorg-fonts-75dpi package installed. If you don't have that package installed, I'm not sure what font is used in its place by either emulator.
WIthout specifying the terminal colors in my ~/.Xdefaults or ~/.Xresources file, I also found the two terminals' colors do not appear the same. I have configured the colors so they are identical in both apps. This excerpt from my .Xdefaults uses the asterisk, *, as a wild card so the colors I have chosen apply to both terminals.

[SOLVED] How to make small MS fonts antialiased?

I have the ttf-vista-fonts package installed because I like fonts like Calibri. However, at font sizes under 15 pt, that font (and one or two others in the set) gets rendered without antialiasing on, which really grates on the eyes considering that the other fonts on my system are antialiased at that size. To make matters horrendously worse, anytime a ligature occurs in the text ("tt", "fi", etc.), those letter pairs are antialiased! I copied the calibri TTF files over from a Windows installation and they are indeed the same files as on Windows, where it antialiases all the way down to 8 pt and possibly lower. From this I know it's something in my configuration.
What in my configuration is making this happen and what do I have to change to make this font antialias all the way down? Something in my fonts.conf maybe?

Calibri has embedded bitmaps; this drove me nuts too. The easiest thing to do, depending on your current DE/WM, is to add the following lines to your ~/.fonts.conf

<match target="font">
<edit mode="assign" name="embeddedbitmap"><bool>false</bool></edit>
</match>
Check out my fonts.conf for more info. Websites like http://codinghorror.com used to look horrible before this fix.
Thank you, this quick little snippet totally did the trick. And actually, Coding Horror was one of the places where I was constantly bugged by this in the recent past.

[SOLVED] How to make sense of the Forms Client SOD Matrix ?

Hi,
We have installed 10.1.2.3 app server and are using Jinitiator version 1.3.1.28 on Windows under IE 7.
Before we did this I read the matrix, saw that IE 7 was certified with 10.1.2.2 and Jinit 1.3.1.28.
I also noted the line stating "When a client platform is certified with a specific patch release it is implicitly certified with all subsequent patch releases.".
I (and I presume thousands of others) read this to mean that because it works fine with 10.1.2.2., if we patch to 10.1.2.3 then it will be implicitly certified.
Not so according to Oracle Support ! X-( They tell me I am running an uncertified combination and must use the Sun plug-in (which we have found issues with). Can anyone from Oracle confirm that the combination i am using is OK please ?
i have replied to my TAR with support pointing out this line I have quoted above and also asking why when you patch to 10.1.2.3 and run a test form does it run Jinitiator 1.2.1.26 if it is not supposed to be supported ....
Ho hum ....:(
** Yes it is supported. I was going insane ....

Thank you. It wasn't quite what I was looking for, but may solve why I've set up such monitoring in the first place. Installing linux-ice now to test.
@Pres
Thank you so much. That helps clear some things up, and means I can remove the load averages from my monitoring (they aren't measuring what I want to measure).
I still need to figure out the disparity between per process CPU usage and overall CPU usage, but those two were closer together anyway, so less of a worry.
I'm going to mark this thread solved.

How to make the layout changes permanent. Urgent!!!

I have to upgrade a fmb file built in Developer2000(forms 4.5) to forms 9i. I opened it in forms9i builder and Performed some resizing and re allignment to the items in the canvas. But when I save the file and reopen the canvas I found some of the changes are effected and some are gone say the object appear at the same place where it was before...
Note : there is no frames in this fmb they have used only the staight lines to create the box around the section of the form. so setting the frame property update to manually from Automatic is not relevant here.
Could any one suggest me to proceed...
Thanks in advance...

Hi Garry,
I beleive My explanation about the case is not clear,
I want to migrate a .fmb file developed in Forms4.5 (Character Mode) to the Latest version say Forms 9i(GUI).
As I opened the file in the Forms9i environment some automatic validation and migration took place.
In the Layout editor the Items appeared displaced as the effect of conversion from Character mode file to BitMap file. So I manually Increased the Width of each Text Item to a single Space. (Note: Iam not using the ifcmp90.exe syntax as I didnot go upto the compilation level as of now).
I increased the width of the text items to one space to adjust the bevel effects of the web deployed forms.
I moved the objects to exactly position before the prompts
and as frames are not available in the character mode they have used straight line objects to seperate the items in the layout. These Lines I resized to adjust the form to accomodate the increased width items.
But I moved these lines a bit apart from the items and increased the vertical space between the items in the header section . These two changes alone is not taking place.
If this your understanding, kindly let me know how to send the sample to Oracle Support

[SOLVED] How to make "yaourt" run with "AUR" command?

I want to change the yaourt command so i can use something like aur or AUR.
for example, instead of
yaourt -S package-name-here
I want to use
AUR -S package-name-here
so that it's easier to type. "yaourt" is such an odd string to type! hehe
I think i might use something like this:
function AUR {
**something like: exec /.../yaourt**
**and some other code to pass on -S or -U conditions...etc**
Can someone tell me what to put in this function and where to save it to?
Also, What's better: using the yaourt call above or the following custom function (instead of yaourt):
function AUR {
cd $aurdir
wget http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/$1/$1.tar.gz && tar -xzf $1.tar.gz && rm $1.tar.gz && cd $1 && makepkg -s
pacman -U **some code goes here to output the correct filename**
I have to think to myself "yeah our t" to type yaourt (haha) so to think "AUR" is much simpler, since that's what we're getting packages from anyways.

When and if one uninstalls yaourt, still gonna leave the aliases in the .bashrc... that's untidy too... Wich is more simple, "ln -s /usr/bin/yaourt /usr/bin/AUR <enter>" or "nano ~/.bashrc <enter> alias AUR='yaourt' <ctrl+x> <y> <enter>" ... It's better to use aliases in .bashrc because you can do so much more and get to learn alil bit more for future reference, but the reasons for not symlinking it's really not that bad. If you've ever used windows for example, symlink works almost the same as creating a shortcut to an application on the desktop, once unistalled the application, you manually have to delete the shortcut. Aliases is the proper way to go, i didn't know this at all.. I just symlinked to yaort but after reading this i switched to alias Btw mark topic as solved ^^
