Startx and different WMs [solved]

Hi everyone,
I use startx to start X, but I use three different WMs, compiz stand-alone, dwm, and catwm. Is there an easy way to switch window managers?

If you just want to select a WM as you start X, then you can also have a case statement in your .xinitrc. eg
# Stuff to execute no matter the wm here
case $1 in
catwm)
# catwm specific stuff &
exec ck-launch-session catwm
compiz)
# compiz specific stuff &
exec ck-launch-session compiz-manager # or whatever its called
dwm)
# dwm specific stuff &
exec ck-launch-session dwm
# a default wm in here
esac
Then instead of using `startx` you can fire up X with `xinit catwm`, `xinit compiz`, `xinit dwm` or just `xinit` for the default.
Thanks! This seemed the simplest, so I used it.

When did this start? What was the last thing you changed before problem started?
Have you tried sending the attachment from a different account. Have a friend send you an attachment. Get a gmail account.
Send the email with attachments to two different accounts one to your ipad and the other to a gmail account in a web browser and not on an iPad. See if you can read the ones to the gmail account.
You did reboot your ipad?

1.Time stamp error
Resolution procedure
Go to RSA1Source system
Run program RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL
Mention source system and Info source and then execute.
Now the transfer structure will be automatically activated.
Then proceed with the reload, it will get success now.
2. PSA error records
Go to details tab, we will find its packet no. and its record no.
Resolution procedure
Click on PSA icon in monitor and select the error data packet
Double click on error record and edit it to the correct value,
select save.
Now update from PSA to target by selecting the option Start update immediately.
3. SID not found for characteristic
Resolution procedure
a. Remove the failed request from data target by making its QM status into red.
b. Load Master data for characteristic using full update.
c. Then reload the transactional data.
4. Error calling number range object
Resolution procedure
Note down the assigned dimension into the cube for 0VAL_TYPE
copy the dimension name
Go to RSRV transaction
Tests in Transaction RSRV -> All Elementary Tests ->Transactional Data then double click on Comparison of Number Range of a Dimension and Maximum DIMID- then click on the right pane in same->Mention the cube name and dimension name, click on enter.
Then click on correct error. It will correct the error.
5. Trfc error
Resolution procedure
Go to SM58
Go to edit->Execute LUW.
Then do refresh in monitor.
Now it will pick the records and the load will get success.
Some times we found that some packets will not get updated even if the extraction is showing as complete.
Do manual update of each packet
6. ALE REMOTE lock
Resolution procedure
This can happen when user or ALEREMOTE is accessing the same table
a.     Remove failed request from data target by making its QM status into red.
b.     Check into sm12 and delete the lock, usually the BASIS deletes them
c.     Reload the package
7. Delta fails
Resolution procedure
R/3->BW
Data is coming from R/3 then make the request technical status red in monitor and remove the request from manage.
go to info package restart the load, then you will get a pop up saying that repeat of last delta click on request again.
Go back to manage and look for the delta type, it will show as Repeat of last delta.
BW->BW(Data mart)
Delta load failed from ODS to cube/any data mart.
Make its technical status as red
Go to manage and remove the failed request by making its QM status as red.
It is updating from ODS, so we have to remove the data mart status in ODS manage, before restarting delta
If you click on data mart status it will pop up a window
Click on delete icon, select YES and then ok.
Now refresh manage the data mart status will get deleted.
If you load now the failed delta will get success.

This often means that the maximum of 3 iCloud accounts have already been created on the phone and it cannot create another account. When this happens, all you can do is re-use one of the accounts previously created or creat your account using a different iOS device or Mac, if you have one.

WCF OracleDB binding and different Oracle schema on different environment

Hi All,
I am facing an issue related to WCF OracleDB binding and Oracle schema's. The thing is we have to generate schemas from Oracle Stored Procedures which are in Packages and in a Particular Oracle Schema say ADPPDBO. Now when I generate the schemas from SP
the Oracle schema name is embedded in the namespace of the generated schema ->
http://Microsoft.LobServices.OracleDB/2007/03/ADPPDBO/Package/PKG_DP_SCAN_BATCH
This works fine when running on the DEV environment But what would happen if we have multiple environment and different Oracle schema names on those environment ? Say on QA you could have ADPPDBOQA instead of ADPPDBO. Now your BizTalk schemas have
been generated using ADPPDBO embedded in the namespace and the solution will fail on other environments. To mitigate this I have used UseSchemaInNamespace property to
false, this solved my problem partially as this removed ADPPDBO from Schema namespace but its records are still getting generated with ADPPDBO.
Any suggestions ?
Regards,
Rahul Madaan

Hi All,
Solved the issue by using custom pipeline component and removing the unwanted Oracle schema name from the namespace. I am receiving the response from SP as an XMLDocument but I could not use untyped message as I have generated .NET classes from the schema's
generated from Oracle database and I am deserializing the message to particular schema type.
Morten,
I agree with you that on each and every environment schema names should be same. Since we are implementing this new feature in our project to interact with Oracle but Oracle DB and schema structure was well defined from years like this only so there was
no option but to compensate from BizTalk end.
Also I was not able to figure out how to generate untyped schema from Oracle Schema, any links or blogs for that ?

Rahul Madaan

Opinions about different WMs?

Hi, Archers. I have been reading this forum for quite a long time and I am wondering as there are so many window managers, what are their pros and cons?
I know that there are tiling WM, such as dwm, wmii, ratpoison, awesome, ion3 and xmonad. dwm seems like the fastest one but it needs re-compiling to change the configuration, while xmonad looks like the most 'modern' one and with the best extendability.
As non-tiling WM, there are E17, Openbox, Fluxbox, IceWM, FVWM and many others I cannot remember, all of them claim themselves as 'lightning fast' WMs. So, would you mind sharing your idea on: Which one is faster? Which one has good balance between performance and appearance (or usability)? Which one has many good themes avaliable?
Thanks ahead.

hk2717 wrote:What I'm seeking is users that have extensive experience between different WMs and how they judge the characteristics of each WM and the differences between them.
Well, in the end it's all about personal taste, so if you answer to that you are bound to make subjective statements. What buttons and dolby said is right, the best way to find 'your' wm is to try out different ones... sometimes you can't point out which features you like/dislike just from a description or a screenshot.
buttons wrote:Pretty much everything else can easily make the claim "lightning fast."
I agree. If you have an up to date pc, you don't notice major speed differences.
I'll give you a few hints about the wm's that I used.
Gnome(metacity)/KDE(kwin)
They have the typical advantage of a desktop environment, they feel 'complete out of the box' because all apps are well integrated and functional. Probably the best choice for newcomers and work dedicated tasks (were you just want a functional system). The downside is that they're bloated which can be really irritating... they have apps for nearly everything to give you a 'complete' desktop but if you know what you want (-> experienced user) you'll want to kickout all the other stuff to organize the chaos. Sure, you can start modding around until you only have the parts you want but I see no reason to do that when there are other alternatives (see xfce).
xfce(xfwm)
It has the advantage of a desktop environment but it's pretty minimal compared to KDE/Gnome. If you already know what apps etc you want to use and like the 'standard' behavior and assembling of wm's that are common, xfce is a good wm to start building your customized system. The build in compositing manager is also pretty nice and resource friendly.
subjective side note: overall my favourite wm
e17/e16
I have no up to date information on e17 because I haven't used it for a while. My last impression was that it is to buggy for everyday use.
side note: e17 is hell for theme creators... I've never spend that much time on a single theme than for my e17 theme. xD
I have no up to date infos for e16 either but it's a nice and simple wm (comparable to the *box wm's) which can be quite useful when you have the time to configure it properly... but it's probably outdated now.
*box
If you like it really simple but don't want a tiling wm, they're probably you're choice. They're not usable out of the box, so you need time to set them up properly (create menus, start scripts etc). I've used blackbox for a long time but it's pretty outdated. The last box wm I used was openbox and it's definitely recommendable.
However, I would recommend it only to people who don't mind fiddling with configs.
tiling wm's
Pure minimalism... nothing for people who are afraid of the cli, hate editing config files and expect eye candy. I think that I can't say something objective about the major approach, the window-tiling, about these wm's. You like it or you hate it, it's probably that simple. However, if you're familiar with the key bindings, the usability and using-speed is really great!
I've only used dwm and awesome up until now. Since awesome is a dwm clone, they're pretty comparable. The major difference is that awesome has a config file and when you edit it, all you have to do is to press a key combo to apply the changes. When you want to change the dwm config, you've to recompile it every time... that's why I would recommend awesome.
Xmonad looks promising as well, but haskell looks weird! ^^

My Airport Time Capsule only works when I turn off and turn on, but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve?

Time Capsule Airport
Hello to all, good day, sorry my english google, but it is the tool I have at the moment. I'm having trouble with my Time Capsule Airport, I made all the settings according to the manual, but there has been a connection problem with my iMac. When I finish my work I turn off the imac and then again when they return to work and care, it can not connect to Time Capsule Airport, making it impossible to remove the files and make back up by Time Machine only works when I turn off and turn on the Airport Time Capsule , but I think this may end up with the unit. What can this happening and how to solve? Thank you.
Olá a todos, bom dia, desculpe meu inglês google, mas é a ferramenta que tenho no momento. Estou tendo dificuldades com a minha Airport Time Capsule, fiz todas as configurações de acordo com o manual, mas tem existido um problema de conexão com meu iMac. Quando termino meus trabalhos desligo o imac e depois quando retorno pra trabalhar novamente e ligo, ele não se conecta a Airport Time Capsule, impossibilitando retirar os arquivos e fazer o back-up pelo Time Machine, só funciona quando desligo e ligo a Airport Time Capsule, mas acho que isso pode acabar com o aparelho. O que pode esta acontecendo e como resolver? Obrigado.

This is easier to do with pictures perhaps.. since we do not share a common language and machine translation leaves a lot to be desired.
In the airport utility bring up your Time Capsule.
Simply post the screenshots here.
So here is mine.
Click on the Edit button and give us the Internet and Wireless and Network tab..
eg.
Please also make sure you are set to ipv6 in your wireless or ethernet .. whichever is used.. and do tell which.
This is wifi in your computer.
The following are important..
DO not use long names with spaces and non-alphanumeric names.
Use short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
eg TC name. TCgen5
Wireless name TCwifi
Use WPA2 Personal security with 10-20 character pure alphanumeric password.
read apple instructions to help with TM and TC.. they did finally admit it has issues in Mavericks.
OS X Mavericks: Time Machine problems
Mount the TC manually in finder.
AFP://TCgen5.local
When asked for the password .. that is the disk access password and save it in the keychain.
Reset Time Machine

I upgraded to Lion, Excel won't open, and what is "Solver" found in the "Launchpad"?

I upgraded to Lion last night, I have Mac OX X 10.7.1 and all other Microsoft Office products (Word & PowerPoint) work just fine, but within the "Launchpad" of Lion, there is an icon called "Solver). When I click on it, the Excel - icon opens up but the program does NOT, and something called "Solver" (found in the Launchpad) also opens up but immediately shuts down, showing an error. WTH???

Hello jburrett,
From what you are describing it sounds like iTunes thinks the files are there, but they are missing or have been relocated. Use this article to locate the files.

You also have the option of deleting the entries you see in iTunes, and re downloading them using:

HT1476 My iPhone 4S will charge on a laptop but not from a wall plug. I have tried different boxes and different USB cords from the wall but none work. These boxes and USB cords work for other family members with iPhones. I'm stumped :/

My iPhone 4S will charge on a laptop but not from a wall plug. I have tried different boxes and different USB cords from the wall but none work. These boxes and USB cords work for other family members with iPhones and a USB cord that works from the laptop won't work from 3 or 4 different wall boxes that work for others. I'm stumped :/

Update: It seems as though the phone will charge if I plug it in and then turn it off. It will not charge while the phone is on. Also iTunes will not recognize it, so I can't sync or anything. I read somewhere that it could be a fuse somewhere?? Or maybe the dock connector. Where is the best place to get this repaired?

Hi,
This you can do it in two ways:
1. Make three header under top level....one Product A, 2nd Product B ( as Billing element) and third as Common expense ( only cost). Now 1st & 2 nd WBS, you have to have sales order linking with individual lint item, for third you will accumulate all the common expense till the period end then make a reposting of the same in desired proportion to both products WBS hierarchy
(This is if you want to have a track on the common expense as well.......like planning, budgeting & control)
After this reposting, run RA for individual billing element and hence you will all the complement detailing and control over Revenue and expense with respect to Product A and Product B individually.
2. If you don't want to maintain that kind of detailing the common expense and keep track of it through project, then have cost centers accordingly and make an assesment/ distribution with respect to expenses accumulated at those cost centers for the period to the respective WBS under each product. Then execute the period end processes for the project.
Or
You can try with have two more line items in the costing sheet as an overhead against common expenses with respect each product.
I hope this should help you.
