[SOLVED]Where does 'gsettings' write to?

//BEGIN EDIT
Ok, I found out that gsettings correctly saves the changes and that the missing wallpaper is some other bug entirely. The point addressed here is therefore solved
//END EDIT
I had some problems with a disappearing wallpaper in GNOME and I found somewhere that
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false
fixes things for me (apparently GNOME is showing an empty Desktop folder with some weird background instead of my wallpaper).
The interesting thing is that I have to set this option after every reboot - GNOME somehow forgets it. Is there a way to make this (and gsettings options in general) permanent? Maybe I have some local user config file that overrides the global options?
Thanks for any hints or solutions!

It is great that you were able to scratch your own itch and work things out for yourself. But you need to actually post your solution to your issue. If you ask a question it is not only for your benefit, but also for those who might be searching for the same information in the future.

So where did you determing that gsettings writes to?

(SOLVED) where does the xorg server gets the Composite file from?

I'd like to see the list of composite combinations. Seeking on the Internet I understand that the file should be:
/usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose
Where en_US.UTF-8 is my locale, but according to that file:
<Multi_key> <underscore> <o> : "ō" U014D # LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH MACRON
I should obtain the small letter o with the macro using multi_key underscore and o. Instead I obtain this: º.
Same problem with the
<Multi_key> <c> <o> : "ǒ" U01D2 # LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH CARON
If I press the keys I obtain: ©, the copyright sign...
So... Where does the arch xorg got its Compose file? Change I change its behavior?
Thanks.

I ignored that is was an application side issue, thanks for explanation. And indeed I was using lxterminal: the terminal emulator of lxde that is based on GTK. Using the xim input system everywhere solved the problem.
People! Listen! Put this two lines in your .xinitrc :
. /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
export GTK_IM_MODULE=xim
export QT_IM_MODULE=xim
exec whatever you use
Thanks! Cheers!

By default where does report write output files on web server

I am running forms and reports over web. I am running a form which on the click of a button runs a report. Using the
Orarrp utility (I already have) I want to print this report.
In my form trigger I am using the run_report_object and I set report parameters DESTYPE to File, and I set
DESNAME giving it a file name. When report finishes, I use Show_Document('http://server:domain/filename.ext','_blank'),
it returns the 404 error, The requested URL /receipt.rrpa was not found on this server.
Can anyone tell me, by default where the server writes the file output? I have checked under
$ORACLE_HOME/reports60/server/cache but did not find my output file.
Is there a way to specifically direct the output file to a directory, and have the reports server recognize the path?
Perhaps using some sort of 'Virtual Path' in the server configuration, but where?
Any help is appreciated?
Regards
Mark

Hi,
destype file writes the file to wherever you send it to.
destype=file desname = c:\temp\myRep.html
creates the file myRep.html in the temp directory on the server. Destype 'cache' only writes to the Cache directory you mention. normally, if not giving any directory information, it's the working directory that the file gets created in. Do a seacrh for your file and I am sure that you'll find it.

[solved] Where does yaourt store packages it creates from AUR ?

Hi !
Using yaourt for AUR access, pretty happy with it, too (most features & fast enough for me).
Now when I install something from the AUR, I'd like to keep a backup copy of the package (handy especially for some git / svn packages that do not always build). This leads to the question, where does yaourt store the packages before installing (should be able to grab a copy then ...) ? Or does yaourt itself keep a backup copy somewhere, like pacman does ?
Thanks, A.

FND_FILE.PUT_LINE where does it write and how to read what it wrote ?

Hi,
I have a PL/SQL and it is writing logs in to FND_FILE.PUT_LINE(). But I do not know how to see what is written by this API. Can some one tell me where should I look for.
PL/SQL directly starts with FND_FILE.PUT_LINE() with out specifying where to write (File/table), if file, what is the file name and directory name ?
All I know is it can write to a file or table. I checked my DB for FND_LOG_MESSAGES table, table /view does not exist.
I use SQL Developer to run the PL/SQL.

All I know is it can write to a file or table. I checked my DB for FND_LOG_MESSAGES table, table /view does not exist.Run like
select * from apps.FND_LOG_MESSAGES;Thanks

Where does Restore write the system?

I did a restore (to a new HD) with Disk Utilities from a SuperDuper back up.
On the original drive, the system was installed first, then apps and so on.
My question is, where is my system on the new drive after the restore?
Does it matter? I always thought the "begining" of the HD was the fastest, and that is where the system should be.
Does a restore write in the order of the source? So if it displayed alpha, that is the order, and the system will write near the end?
If above is true, could I (should I) change the names of the other folders so the system is copied first?
Thanks,
James

If the restored SuperDuper! backup boots the machine and it looks and feels like the original, then leave things alone and definitely don't rename things. Most cloning/restoring apps write things in the order shown in the Terminal.app when you enter the command *ls -al /". Basically, hidden files/foldees, then visible ones, alphabetically, uppercase followed by lowecase.

[SOLVED] Where does knemo save config data?

I set knemo to show the system tray icon only when the wired interface is active (I belive it was eth0). Then I decided to change the interface name to something else. As a result the knemo system tray icon disappeared (because eth0 is no more). The problem is, there is no way for me to update the configuration to show the renamed interface.
Does anyone know where the configuration is stored?
The only file related to knemo that I could find is ~/.kde4/share/config/knemorc, but it doesn't contain much. There is also a directory called ~/.kde4/share/apps/knemo, but it is empty
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the message! It turns out knemo can be configured in Systemsettings->Network Settings->Network Monitor, so problem solved

Stupid question, I know - but I seem to be having a tough time finding the docs or config that describes where pacman stores the downloaded packages during upgrades and installs.

[Solved] Where does Chrome get it's GTK+ info from?

In XFCE I use Greybird as my gtk2/gtk3 theme and Zukitwo for my window manager theme. I like the way Chromium looks when you click on "Use GTK+ theme" but the titlebar doesn't match the rest of my windows. As far as I know there's no way to set up a manifest.json so that Chrome uses system icons so I'm going to have to edit Greybird. My question is what file in the Greybird theme does Chrome pull it's GTK+ info from?
Here's a picture of the differences between my custom theme and 'use gtk+ theme'.

The Shimmer Project added the above mentioned customizations to Chromium in their Greybird theme. This can be found in the file gtk-2.0/gtkrc:
gtkrc wrote:
# Google Chrome/Chromium theming (requires 9.0.597 or newer)
style "chrome-gtk-frame"
ChromeGtkFrame::frame-color = shade (0.5, @bg_color)
ChromeGtkFrame::inactive-frame-color = shade (0.5, @bg_color)
ChromeGtkFrame::frame-gradient-size = 100
ChromeGtkFrame::frame-gradient-color = shade (1.08,@bg_color)
ChromeGtkFrame::inactive-frame-gradient-color = shade (1.08,@bg_color)
ChromeGtkFrame::scrollbar-trough-color = @base_color
ChromeGtkFrame::scrollbar-slider-prelight-color = @panel_bg
ChromeGtkFrame::scrollbar-slider-normal-color = shade (1.4, @panel_bg)
class "ChromeGtkFrame" style "chrome-gtk-frame"
Keep in mind, this is a GTK2 override and has nothing to do with the window decorations. They themed Chromium's tabs and the like to match the xfwm4 Greybird theme. Without this override, the colors would not match. I actually like what they've done. Chromium is not the only application they customized to match Greybird.

To where does the LGWR write information in redo log buffer ?

Suppose my online redo logfiles are based on filesystems .I want to know to where the LGWR writes information in redo log buffer ? Just write to filesystem buffer or directly write to disk ? And the same case is associated with the DBWR and the datafiles are based on filesystems too ?

It depends on the filesytem. Normally there is also a filesystem buffer too, which is where LGWR would write.Yes but a redo log write must always be a physical write.
From http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/ask/f?p=4950:8:15501909858937747903::NO::F4950_P8_DISPLAYID,F4950_P8_CRITERIA:618260965466
Tom, I was thinking of a scenario that sometimes scares me...
**From a database perspective** -- theoretically -- when data is commited it
inevitably goes to the redo log files on disk.
However, there are other layers between the database and the hardware. I mean,
the commited data doesn't go "directly" to disk, because you have "intermediate"
structures like i/o buffers, filesystem buffers, etc.
1) What if you have commited and the redo data has not yet "made it" to the redo
log. In the middle of the way -- while this data is still in the OS cache -- the
OS crashes. So, I think, Oracle is believing the commited data got to the redo
logs -- but is hasn't in fact **from an OS perspective**. It just "disapeared"
while in the OS cache. So redo would be unsusable. Is it a possible scenario ?
the data does go to disk. We (on all os's) use forced IO to ensure this. We
open files for example with O_SYNC -- the os does not return "completed io"
until the data is on disk.
It may not bypass the intermediate caches and such -- but -- it will get written
to disk when we ask it to.
1) that'll not happen. from an os perspective, it did get to disk

Where does the output of System.out.write go??

My question might be silly... but i couldn't find out the exact answer anywhere..
Where does the output of System.out.write go??!! I am not getting anything in the console.. below is the snippet!
public class TestWriteApp {
public static void main(String[] args) {
char a = 'c';
System.out.write((byte)a);
PEACE,
Sandeep

Is goes to the console. But a write of a byte isn't the way to see it.
Try something that will show up easier like
System.out.println("Hello World");What OS are you using? Are you using a command window? Or a GUI like Netbeans?

Importing audio from CD-where does it go?

I tried importing audio from a cd tonight for the first time, from within the audio window. Where does the file go? After I quit the song and tried to open again, the file could not be found. I tried importing again. When I put the CD in iTunes opened up and somehow renamed the CD "John Ford Radio"!? Anyway, I figured out that once the file was in the audio window I used the "move" function to copy the file to the song folder.
Is there an easier way to do this?

If you import audio from a CD, it stays on the CD. You probably saw a message something like "Insufficient privileges" which means that the OS recognised that it couldn't write the calculated wave overview back to the CD.
The best method is to copy it to your hard disk and check the Ownerships and Permissions within the Finder info. You need to have Read/Write on any audio file.
Finally, when saving your work, always use Save as Project since that will create a single folder with all your files nicely tucked away.
