[SOLVED] Steam windows flashing, issues with overlay

I made a short video to demonstrate the problem here.
I am using the catalyst drivers (from Vi0L0's AUR), xorg 1.13
A similar issue occurs with smplayer and the video showing through other windows.
Any ideas? Thanks!
**EDIT**
So I re-read the catalyst install guide and it looks like xorg 1.14 is now supported. Deleted the reference to the 1.13 repository, installed, and it seems to be working. RTFM works!

Once you install xcompmgr you'll need to do two things:
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-nvidia-composite-hotfix.conf
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
~/.xinitrc
...snip...
# Workaround For Hardware Accelerated Video Glitching On NVidia
hsetroot -solid "#000000" # Stops The Gray Background
xcompmgr -n &
# Start My Window Manager Of Choice
exec my_window_manager
Notes:
xcompmgr's -a flag is not entirely reliable and prone to kill rendering on a direct draw movement event (Eg the Steam info slide box or dragging an image in a browser.)
The hsetroot utility and line is only needed if you get a gray background/boarder when you start xcompmgr.
nvidia-settings by default disables composite features in it's XOrg config save. If you've used nvidia-settings and saved it's output (Eg. 20-nvidia.conf) you either need to change the extensions section to re-enable this, or just add this section in it's own high numbered config to override it. The latter is documented so that this fix is a module, reminding of its removal when/if this problem is fixed upstream.
Edit: I had it crash again while I was using no flags. I think I've now fixed it with the -n to enable transparency. Just know your millage may vary.
I'd go ahead and mark as solved if it works for you too Speedy Consoles.
If you're using lxdm, you should append this to
~/.config/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
@hsetroot -solid "#000000"
@xcompmgr -n

[SOLVED]youtube and flash issue

So, I've got a flash issue that only happens on youtube. It looks like this:
It happens every time I open a browser (on both firefox and chrome) and goes away after refreshing the page, but its kinda annoying to refresh the page every time I wanna watch a video. Also when switching to fullscreen the video stays in software video rendering when it should switch to accelerated rendering so I get around 10 fps making the video unwatchable (this doesnt happen with windows on the same hardware).
Other flash websites like vimeo work fine and I can watch vimeo HD videos in fullscreen without any issue.
This started happening when youtube introduced the new black look of their player (it was all fine and dandy before), and its bothering me ever since so I'm now using flashvideoreplacer extension for firefox but I still want flash to work properly so I can use chrome again.
I'm using 64-bit arch, flashplugin from extra (getting the same effect with any other flashplugin from AUR) and EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode is set to 1 in /etc/adobe/mms.conf
Oh and I've tried this on Ubuntu live cd and controls work fine but accelerated video still doesnt work.
Any help would be appreciated.
SOLVED:Graphic problem is resolved after installing new version of flashplugin, but still no HW acceleration.

Adobe flash issues with both IE6 and Firefox

I just installed adobe flash 9 on my win2k computer. When I
try to go to www.yourminis.com I get two different results, in IE6
I start to get a web page, but then IE freezes. In Firefox, I get a
big blue quicktime Q the blinks a bit, then a question mark
superimposes over the Q and nothing else happens.
I also cannot view this page under Firefox in Freespire
Linux, but there, it tells me I don't have a new enough version of
Flash Player, but I downloaded and installed the newest version
available for Linux, and I tried both the normal automatic install
and the manual install (which was a pain in the butt because
Freespire has no admin log in, and you have to do all your copying
of files from a command line using the sudo command...)
Why is this happening? I even have an issue with flash and
the yahoo home page, in IE6 it works fine, but in Firefox, where
you normally see the yahoo logo at the top of the page, instead you
see the big blue Quicktime Q and then the question mark, and the
yahoo logo never comes up (this isn't a big issue, I don't need to
see the animated yahoo logo, but since Firefox is doing the same
thing on www.yourminis as it is with the Yahoo logo animation, I
thought it might be significant)
I even disabled ALL file types in Quicktime's settings except
Quicktime Movies format, because QT won';t LET me disable that one.
Still having the same problems.
Oh, and all this is happening under Administrative User, with
full priveledges in Win2k, so don't tell me I need to be admin or
something like that.

Stage3D and Flash issues with Chrome

I was playing The Last Stand Dead Zone earlier with all of the settings i nthe flash game set to max and now I HAVE to play it on the lowest setting. Also my Nvidia 765m is apparantly now supported by Stage3D or whatever it is. I really have no idea what to do. This page also has the wrong info about my operating system http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/flash-player-games-video-or.html it says that mine is 32-bit when it is 64-bit http://puu.sh/6derE.png I want to play my game and I am very pissed at the moment because I cannot.

More issues with Chrome.
All of a sudden one day I noticed two problem:
I cannot login to SCN via Chrome.
SCN search does not funciton.
If I click on any regular SCN link from e.g. an email notification, the screen gets stuck with a blank screen in authentication mode.
Similarly, if I enter a search term in SCN search, I get a blank screen.
Also, if I click "Login" in the masthead, the screen gets stuck looking like this:
I've cleared cached, reinstalled the browser, and ensured I'm using the proper certificate by eliminating all but the one certificate.
Any suggestions?

[SOLVED] Avant-Window-Navigator issues

Hey guys,
For the first time I'm trying out arch linux and I'd just like to say it's the best distro I've ever used. I got very far very easily on this distro by just using the arch wiki and the forms. You guys have a fantastic community.
Anyways I'm posting because I've had issues with avant-window-navigator. The biggest one being that I cannot move the dock. When I start awn-settings I get this error.
/usr/bin/awn-settings:1064: GtkWarning: Failed to get constuct only property adjustment of monitor_align_hscale with value `adjustment1'
self.wTree.add_from_file(self.XML_PATH)
And the result is that the "Position" slider is locked in one place. On top of that I've been having issues with different applets (specifically the main menu applets) where they just crash whenever I try to use them. I'm assuming those are just missing dependencies?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Appears to be the same problem as with exaile and xfce-panel. Downgrade gtk2 or try to change the value by editing the gconf files.

Reason for Flash issues with 10.2 update

I think I am beginning to understand the Flash issue. Because I have several Mac's and have only had one develop a issue with the new Flash 10.2 update. My feeling is that the one Mac a White Macbook with Intel graphics is the only one having the issue. While my other Mac's a Macbook Air, and two Mac Mini's with the Nvidia 9400M graphics and the Air's Nvidia 320M are not. Leads me to believe that somehow the hardware acceleration in the Flash that puts more use of the graphics chip rather then the CPU may be the cause. It may not work as well with the Intel graphics. The Flash official requirements is 128Mb of VRAM for it to work. I would say the older Intel chips may be causing a problem. Now why it works in 32 Bit mode with Safari is a bit of a mystery. A quick fix seems to be to enable Safari to run in 32 Bit or to use Google's Chrome browser which has built in Flash.

mmm.. please see the thread "Flash 10.2 choppy in fullscreen." I have plenty of VRAM here 288MB to be precise. 32bit or more RAM is not the solution as neither it is to turn the automatic switch in energy preferences. Clearly everything works well with version 10.1, problems just happen when you upgrade to version 10.2 and 10.3(beta).

Hello Guys,
This is my first topic. I have done all the research in this forum and in Google for the issue, with no luck in finding a solution. I have done several Arch linux installs before on Virtual Machines and PC's all of them working properly, except for this one that I can not get to pass the install phase.

Thank you in advance.

I've had the same issue with an (outdated) Arch Linux iso. As far as I am aware, it is caused by pacman's keys becoming out of date.
I've managed to get around this before, but the exact method eludes me.
You could try just updating the archlinux-keyring package, by refreshing pacman (pacman -Sy), then reinstalling only that package (try pacman -S archlinux-keyring).
Then you should be able to continue as normal.
Note that this only affects the CD filesystem in RAM - it will not persists across reboots using the CD.
The reason why this might work is that the package archlinux-keyring might not be signed by the key you were having issues with. If it still fails, you could temporarily set the SigLevel for the core repo to 'Never', however this does disable package signing, at least until you reset the SigLevel.
Unfortunately, I could not replicate the problem in a Qemu VM, so I'm not sure how good my method is. Hopefully, it fixes the problem.
Here are some links that might help shed some light:

Flash issue with ALSA (snd_pcsp)

If I use the snd_pcsp module, the browser freezes completely when running a flash video with sound. I disabled the module and flash videos work fine, however now I don't receive any sound anywhere.
Current modules:

Audio device:

All of those modules are loaded manually though, as the new (beta) ISO didn't autodetect any modules..

How to solve Windows 7 issues with Acobat X?

Hello
I hope someone can advise how to deal with the following errors:
i. In Windows 7 Explorer, I somtimes have context menu options for 'Convert to Adobe PDF' and 'Convert to Adobe PDF and email'. Both these options give ask me to select a target file name and then give message concerning missing PDFMaker. Should I have PDFMaker or not by virtue of having Acrobat X? If not can I remove these menu options?
ii. In Windows 7 Explorer, I also have context menu option 'Combine supported files in Acrobat'. But again, with Office 2010 this fails because 'Windows cannot find Acrobat.exe'. Why is this if Acrobat X is installed?
iii. Also, in Office 2010 itself, there is an Adobe tag on the ribbon which fails. Presumably it is related to the above. Should this work or can I disable it?
I'm using Office 2010 Pro on Windows 7 Pro. I have Acrobat 10 installed and also CS4.
Thanks
Martin O'Shea.

I tried repairing the Acrobat X installation but to no avail so any other advice is welcome.
I have disabled the add in in Office 2010 though.

Flash issues with windows

Hi there. I've been having some weird problems with flash i'm
hoping someone could help me with.
I formatted one of my two hard drives about a month 1/2 ago
and since then flash has worked sporadically.
I have shockwave installed which seems to have no problem
with anything. Running Firefox 2.0 i'll install flash from
shockwave.com for example. I close all the browsers and when I open
it back up it works but eventually flash causes Firefox to crash
and close.
The same thing happens in Yahoo IM. Yahoo has closed before
because of flash.osx. I know it's only when flash is installed
because I last uninstalled Flash a week ago and Yahoo IM has worked
fine since then.
I don't know what the problem is or what could be causing
this. I've removed it using the program, restarted, tried
installing again to no avail. Not sure what could be causing this
but I could really use any help or suggestions.
Thanks
Brian

Hey debgram, it's actually crashing and then closing.
not firefox or ie so much anymore but yim now. not doing it
as much as it was which was every 5-10 min but i still had
absolutly NO problems when flash wasn't installed.
I think it's better after i deleted the actual flash folder
in the system32 folder.
if it continues however i'll definitly be emailing
macromedia.

Jabber for Windows / iPhone - issue with photo and search

Dear community,
I have an issue regarding Cisco Jabber for Windows as well as iPhone & iPad.
I recently upgraded our Call Manager infrastructure from 8.6.5 to 10.0. Along with that, I wanted to rollout the new Jabber for Windows (9.7.2) because now we use a very old version (9.2.1).
After I upgraded my test client, I noticed that the user photos (which are retrieved from active directory) were gone.
So for the first time, I decided to modify the the jabber-config.xml (I attatched the two different versions).
I used the jabber config generator to create the new version: https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/106926/jabber-config-file-generator
My attempt is to achive these goals:
1) I want one config file which is working with Jabber for Windows, iPhone & iPad, Android as well as Jabber for Mac
2) I want a secure connection from the client to our directory server
3) I want to retrieve the user photos from the active directory user (attribute thumbnailPhoto)
4) Jabber should find only users which are a member of the active directory group "example" (example is a nested group which contains several users and at least _one_ other group). Until now, the whole active directory was searched for users/contacts.
So far, 1) and 2) seems to work fine. 3) and 4) are the troublemakers and I really don't no why.
Can somebody help me?
Best regards,
René

Look at this thread. You can find the answer there.
https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/12241391/ldap-contacts-and-photos-jabber-ipad-iphone-and-android-not-working
First I had to uncheck "Use UDS for Contact Resolution" and then I had to create a new jabber-config.xml and upload it to the TFTP server.
But there are a few limitations you have to deal with. But I have mentioned that in the other thread.

Photosmart D7160 connected to desktop with Windows XP, issues with new laptop & network printing

We have a Photosmart D7160 connected to our desktop that runs Windows XP. I just got a new Acer laptop that runs Windows 7 (64bit). We set up a network to connect to the internet and so I can access documents that had been made on the desktop. I have not had issues using the printer off the desktop with any programs. I installed a creative program to create flyers, cards, etc onto the laptop. Same one as on the desktop. When trying to print off the laptop, I can not access the whole options on the printer. I forget the name of the options I want (maybe called printing preferences) but I would like to choose wether I am using the photo tray or presentation printing or economy printing, etc. I can only choose print. That is not good for printing cards, etc. I had made a recipe care template with that program and wanted to print one out.
What have I not done in setting up my laptop? I tried the to "add a printer" on a network and that did not fix my issue. Any help is appreciated. thanks.

Hi Bayratlj
Dunno if you've sorted your problem out, but I had exactly the same problem with a HP Photosmart 3100. I found some advice on http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6201674 regarding the firewall on the Mac and yes that is the problem. But as you'll see with my last post in that topic I cant figure out how to keep my firewall on AND have printer sharing. Just allowing printer sharing in the firewall settings is no help.
Cheers

[Solved] Several installs and issues with DHCP issue every time.

Edited: more concise information!
Hi folks,
I was using Arch fine for months but decided to reinstall it fresh at the new year, but since then I have been plagued by connection issues. I install Arch and follow many of the tips found in these Wikis to set it up how I like then install preload and readahead.
Post-Installation Tips
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pos … ation_Tips
- LCD filtered fonts
- Disable IPv6 (I use Chorus/NTL and they have a tip for improving Firefox that disables IPv6, so I think that this is not to blame)
Laptop
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Laptop
- Battery state monitoring utilities (acpi)
- Laptop-mode-toold
- Powernowd
Maximising Performance
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Max … erformance
- Swapiness
- Mount /tmp to RAM
My internet connection works fine, even when rebooting, but later I turn on my computer and WICD or networkmanager fails on "obtaining IP address. I really think that there is something in one of these tips that is causing this problem, but I am at a loss as to what. Like I say, I was using it happily for many months before these current issues. The only thing I did differently was systematically set up my computer with all the tips detailed above, where as before, I collected these tips over a period of time and did not do them all straight after installation. I have tried rolling back the changes and this has not fixed the issue.
I have had this issue over many reinstalls, using networkmanager or WICD and each time I was hoping that I was doing something wrong. I have an Ubuntu and work Windows laptop that both work fine, so I don.t think it is anything to do with the connection itself.
I am not sure what information you would need so I thought I would post both of these files. If you would like anything else, give me a shout and i can post it.

Hey Scott!
I don't know if it is helpful in any way but I have a similar problem with my desktop PC.
I have two ethernet controllers installed and somtimes I had a Ip address assigned and sometimes I didn't.
One which is connected to the router and a 2nd one I use sporadically to connect additional computers.
The dhcpcd would fail to load even if I followed steps suggested from other forum members.
My temporary fix was to run:
# dhcpcd
manually.
If this helps you might consider adding "dhcpcd" at the end of
/etc/rc.d/network
I know it's not really a fix but it helps me to get a working connection whoch otherwise would fail - or work if lucky but i don't like lucky with network/internet ^^
