(Solved) Missing .xinitrc (sorry for a newb thing)
so I made the move from Ubuntu to Arch. Happy so far and am going to just do a minimal install and use openbox stand alone. I have openbox installed but on the wiki it says to append "exec openbox-session" to ~/.xinitrc which I can't seem to find. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but you can't learn if you don't ask and I couldn't find anything in the search.

The wiki page on xinitrc will answer your questions...

[solved] missing latest backups for iPhone after getting replacement phone
Thought I would share this one in case anyone else runs into it.
My the speaker on my wife's iPhone 4 on Verizon had stopped working for phone calls for the second time and a restore didn't fix it, so she returned the phone and they gave her a new one at the store. We had made several backups over the last few days, the most recent was this morning.
So tonight we hooked up the new phone to iTunes and got ready to restore it, but iTunes said the restore was last updated in FEBRUARY. What?! My wife freaked out thinking all her photos etc. were now lost for good.
I held off on the restore and decided to do some checking around before doing anything. I found the folder where the restore files are, and sure enough I found files from today. I copied that folder just in case. I also checked in iTunes itself and the backups were listed. So what was up?!
It finally occured to me that we had recently upgraded her phone to iOS 5, but that the new iPhone 4 from the store was probably still on iOS 4 -- maybe iTunes was not smart enough to see this situation and tell us about it, and maybe it won't listed iOS 5 backups for an iOS 4 phone.
Well that turned out to be the case. But what to do to fix it? I figured if I could get iOS 5 onto the phone, we would be all set. But I didn't want to tell iTunes to label it as a new phone either -- I'm not sure if that would be permanent or what. So I took a leap of faith and held down the power button and home button simultaneously for a while, past the power off notification, until the phone prompted to be connected to iTunes to be restored.
Then I plugged it back into the computer (this is Windows 7, by the way). Sure enough iTunes said it detected a phone in recovery mode, and would I like to have iTunes restore it to factory settings and put on the latest iOS? I sure would, so I did that and waited...
After that was done, iTunes wanted me to active the phone with Verizon. We had already done that an hour earlier over the phone, but tried it anyway, and it failed. We ignored that failure and went into the phone in iTunes -- it now asked if it was a new phone or if we should restore it -- and the backup from this morning was listed. Phew!
Finally completed the restore. I noticed that all of the passwords for all apps were lost -- unlike with a normal restore/backup on the same phone -- but everything else (pcitures, apps, etc.) was there. Thank goodness!
So, if you have upgraded the iOS version and have to replace your phone and the nreplacement has an older iOS verison, then that may explain why your backups appear to be missing...Yes, I tried. But nothing is working. I am feeling bad as such a costly phone stop working in 1.4 year ?
I am just sharing my experience.
I am not ranting but yes angry as I am eligible for upgrade in Nov 2012 so don't want to pay $149 for replacement as I can upgrade to iPhone 5.
Apple expert please help me how can I fix it. It's completely software issue. -
[Solved] Missing App indicator for Shutter
I just went through the process of installing all of the [AUR packages] for [Shutter]. I made it through that process fine, no errors all the dependencies are installed. For some reason when I start the application the App Indicator doesn't appear, instead I just get a matted gray square:
I would expect the actual shutter icon to be there:
The icon itself doesnt appear to be missing I can see it in /usr/share/pixmaps along with other icons that are appearing: Dropbox, Redshift, PIdgin, etc...
Any thoughts
Last edited by mcmillhj (2014-02-05 17:10:48)Not really sure what happened, after about 45 minutes the app indicator appeared. I can't recall any actions during that time period that would cause it to be fixed.

[SOLVED] Missing Kernel Headers for Catalyst
Hello Everyone,
I am a new Arch guy! I am from the ubuntu world. Love the new arch install, I have installed my own DE.
I use a Radeon HD 68xx so I need the catalyst drivers.
I have tried installing them via: sudo pacman -S catalyst-dkms catalyst-utils (per the wiki)
It gets to the end and gives me this message:
DKMS: add completed.
Error! echo
Your kernel headers for kernel 3.6.2-1-ARCH cannot be found at
/usr/lib/modules/3.6.2-1-ARCH/build or /usr/lib/modules/3.6.2-1-ARCH/source.
error: command failed to execute correctly
Can anybody assist on how I get the kernel headers? As far as I understood, they should be included in Arch.

[SOLVED] Missing package () function for PyTyle2
Hi, I was trying to install this tarball from the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=42541
But it prompts the following error:
==> ERROR: Missing package() function in /home/kolt/AUR/pytyle2-hg/PKGBUILD
I've read the PKGBUILD and have no idea why this is happening. I already installed the dependencies needed.
Any clue?

Read the pacman output, it refers to the package() function and makepkg doesn't find it in the PKGBUILD as said. Ask the maintainer to update or orphan it, if he doesn't respond file an AUR request. -
How to delete and pull up empty region - Sorry for the newbie question
Hi,
I know Avid and Final Cut Pro and both allow me to mark an empty region and delete it. This closes the gap of the empty region and then pulls the two clips together.
Can I do this in Garage Band. I feel lame for asking.
For example, let's say I'm editing dialogue in Garage band and I want to delete an "um". Can't I just mark it and then delete it, pulling the rest of the clip up?
Thanks so much!
KirkThe reason GB doesn't have this is because it was created for music - and there you want the gap to remain, otherwise everything that follows would be out of sync.
If you're only editing spoken word, an audio editor is the better alternative. On the other hand, you can get used to editing audio in GB, you don't even have to do two cuts: Do the right cut and pull the right region on top of the left to where you want it (looking at the waveform). Done. -
Sorry for this newbie question...
Requirement:
return all documents which does not contain the word "mango"
Code typed:
where contains (ts_files.doc_blob, 'not mango', 1) > 0 )
-->ts_files is the table containing the files.
-->doc_blob is the blob field where files are located.
Returned Error ?:| :
ORA-29902: error in executing ODCIIndexStart() routine
ORA-20000: Oracle Text error:
DRG-50901: text query parser syntax error on line 1, column 2
Can YOU help me, Please ?
MathewIf you have some other criteria to put before the "not mango", that would work. With a small number of rows, "% not mango" works. However, with a large number of rows with various data, like most such tables have, "% not mango" is likely to result in a wildcard query expansion error. Some alternatives are to use "contains (...) = 0" or " not (contains ...) > 0". These will still use the domain index, but avoid the problem with the wildcard expanding to too many terms. Please see the demonstration below.

Sorry for the newbie question NX5U
How do I transfer my standard definition video files on my SD card from my NX5U to DVD? I want to keep the raw footage forever and with tape it was easy. I'm new to this so forgive me.
Treat the DVD as a data DVD, copy over the raw files. The FULL CARD STRUCTURE files.
If you mean a PLAYABLE DVD, then you either author the DVD, or play out of the camera to a DVD recorder, or your edit system to a DVD recorder. But that is by far the WORSE way to store your masters.
What you do is copy off the full card to hard drives, as DVDs are too small to hold the amount of data we are talking about here. Copy the full structure to a hard drive, archive the drive. TWO hard drives really, as drives will fail.
Yeah, tape was by far more convenient to archive than tapeless media. -

I keep getting this message when i connect my new Bold 9900 and started getting it on my curve 8330 a couple months ago. I have the newest version of desktop manager 6.0 installed on both my laptop and my PC. The strange thing is it works flawlessly on my laptop, no error messages from either phone. Just got the new Bold last week, plugged it in to PC, same error. I have done alot of reading through the forums and have tried to uninstall and re-install the desktop software 3 or 4 times. Even tried upgrading the OS on the Curve and Bold on the Laptop. Plugged it back into the PC and same problem. I cannot force the Loader.exe to start on PC when I click on it on the C:\program Files/Common Files/Research in Motion/Apploader, crashes right away. Even tired a method that outlines how delete registry entries, etc and tried that. Does anyone have any further ideas or more detailed way to resolve this. Seems to be desktop manager issue as no problems with same devices on laptop.

Adobe Photo Downloader has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Error Code: c0000005
Address: 75e32f71
I clicked on the OK button and the downloader closed.
I did a search on this error code (c0000005) and there seems to be a workaround but no solutions, why is this? I ask that because this problem seems to be years and years old, going back to at least 2005 (do the math that is 10 years).
I don't even have the Camera hooked up and I get this error on download. I redownloaded everything and reinstalled. I allso saw the AVI issues reported with this proble so i updated Quicktime though without the camera being hooked up when I get this error I didn't expect that to work. I tried support and they wouldn't help because I bought it in March this year. Pretty frustrating as I have re-purchased Elements about every 2 years. I think I might need a new CODEC? I had this problem on an Earlier version And I seem to remember that being the Fix but this may be something completely differentI finally found that it was missing a picture so the Catalog was "corrupted". I just deleted the picture and it started working.
I hate Adobe and their total lack of support - thanks for nothing Adobe . Also get this - they offered me to upgrade to 13.0 ( My 12.0 is only 6 months old but they still don't support it on errors. Only install errors!
I have upgrade and repurchase this product 4 times now. I will find something else next time! -
Adobe Reader 8.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience
Ver 8 installed fine but can't get it to launch from any application. Have tried going back to earlier versions (6.1,6.2,7) but the same problem occurs.
Same error message each time:
"Adobe Reader 8.0 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"
AppName: acrord32.exe AppVer: 8.0.0.456 ModName: acrord32.dll
ModVer: 8.0.0.456 Offset: 00020916
Tried every troubleshooting tip in the Support Knowledgebase to no avail.
Have been using Reader for years with never any problems and now I can't seem to get this fixed after numerous hours.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Is there a free support line I can call or is it paid support only?
Thanks,
DeeLike others my problem was Adobe Reader 8.1.2 died terribly and with a buggy stench with the following error:
AppName: acrord32.exe AppVer: 8.1.0.137 ModName: msvcr70.dll
ModVer: 7.0.9466.0 Offset: 000013d6
RESOLUTION ON XP SP2
1. Control Panel, Users
2. Create a new user account NewUser (for example)
3. Start, Log Off
4. Switch Users to the NewUser
5. Wait the mini eternity for new user to be set up.
6. Start Adobe Acrobat 8.1.2 and you will see a red splash screen along with some license updating things.
7. Adobe 8.1.2 now starts fine under NewUser
8. Switch back to your regular user name. Start, Log off, Switch Users
Now a note to Adobe. Do you folks really have to make this such a frickin pain to get working? Do you at Acrobat have any idea of how much time we users blow and how much of our lives pass by while we try to re-download and work with this product? You are directly responsible for a small slow down in the world economy by this. Get the hint.... create an 8.1.3 that omits the secret code steps above.
The only thing that kept my sanity during this were nice songs on channel 86 on SIRIUS. Thank you SIRIUS.
Thanks,
Jim
