Sugestion: set nouveau as default instead of nv

I think this is the best place to post this...
One of my arch setups is installed on an usb pen and I use it on different systems.
It works fine except one thing: the nouveau driver doesn't load without a xorg.conf.d/20-nouveau.conf file like this (from archwiki - nouveau)
Section "Device"
Identifier "n"
Driver "nouveau"
EndSection
... and when I have that file, any other drivers fail to load (on intel systems for example) so I have to manualy add or remove that file when I'm on a nvidia or non-nvidia system.
Someone told me that I could use this gentoo patch
That looks harmless... xorg tries to load nouveau and then tries the other alternatives instead of defaulting to nv. Solves the problem and makes nouveau working without a xorg.conf file...
Could this be submited to the current xorg packages?

That's a feature request - post it in the bugtracker. The devs are unlikely to see it here.
As a general rule, Arch does not apply patches unless they have been accepted by the relevant upstream developers, so it would be advisable to check that before posting.

How to set Preview as Default instead of Adobe Reader

How can I set Preview as the default application for PDF files instead of Adobe Reader?

Go to a PDF file and selected it. Either "File"- "Get Info" in the menu bar or press Cmd-I. This will give you a pop up screen where you have an section called "Open with". Go there, select Preview as the application to open the document with, press the "Change All" button and confirm.

Set CS3 as default instead of CS5

Is there a way that I can make CS3 my default version of InDesign for opening indd files? I'm the only one at our company that has CS5 on their computer and I'm afraid that opening the files we've created in CS3 with CS5 will make it so that my coworkers won't be able to work with those files anymore. I'm on a PC. I know that I can just right click the files and choose "open with" every time but I'm opening different files all day long and it'd be nice to not have to do (and remember to do) that everytime.

Thanks for the fast reply guys! Okay, so I just took a random InDesign file and "right clicked" on it. I then chose "properties" and under the "general" tab there was an option for "Opens with". It was set to CS5.5 and I just chose the option to "change" that to CS3. I would have thought that would only apply to the 1 file I did this to but so far everything else is opening is CS3!

Set iCloud as default in outlook 2013

Hi,
I like to set iCloud as default in outlook 2013 (Windows 8.1 x64)
The big issues are the contacts and appointments.
How can I use those as default?
Is there an upgrade of iCloud software being developed, or is there a workaround I can use instead?
With best regards,
g

Unfortunately, you can't set iCloud as your default. You can, however, change the default address book in Outlook to access your iCloud contact list when addressing email, as explained here: http://www.msoutlook.info/question/262.

Set InDesign -- by default -- not to make hyperlinks Shared Destinations?

I have a newsletter template in ID CS4 based on a template with some standing hyperlinks to my organization's web pages.
Recently, when I created a new file based on the template, my computer started bogging down looking NOT for the web page in the hyperlink, but in the copy of the InDesign file that created it. Checked the properties in Hyperlink Options, and instead of URL, the links went to a Shared Destination (a copy of the document on a shared drive, not an Internet server). Changed the properties to link them to URLs instead, but when I opened the document again, they went back to Shared Destinations. How can I set InDesign -- by default -- not to hook hyperlinks up to Shared Destinations? (My agency was ready to upgrade me to CS6 until it became available in the Cloud only).
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/indesign/cs/using/WSB152EA6F-30D9-417c-9E16-A2C492C04892.html
Note: If a URL hyperlink isn’t working in the exported PDF, there may be a problem with the hyperlink being a “Shared Destination.” Double-click the hyperlink in the Hyperlinks panel, choose URL from the Link To menu, deselect Shared Hyperlink Destination, and click OK
But I wan to make NOT sharing hyperlinks the default

Given the bug with shared hyperlinks (see https://forums.adobe.com/message/6408902#6408902), I too would like to turn off shared hyperlink destination as the default. Anyone found a way to do this?

Eyedropper sets Background color swatch instead of Foreground

Q: Why does the Eyedropper Tool set the Background color instead of the Foreground color when I click in my image?
A: The reason for this is that the Background swatch is "targeted" to accept the color information passed on by the Eyedropper Tool when you use it to sample a color. You can reset the behavior by clicking on the Foreground swatch in your Colors Palette/Panel. See the image below:
http://forums.adobe.com/servlet/JiveServlet/downloadImage/2-1902897-1946/Eyedropper-Focus- Infographic.png
No matter which swatch is targeted, you can choose to temporarily sample color into the other swatch by holding down the Option key (ALT on Windows) while you sample with the Eyedropper Tool.
If you'd like to have the current Foreground and Background colors (as displayed in your Toolbox) switch places, simply tap the 'X' key on your keyboard.
Finally, to reset the Foreground and Background swatches to their default of black and white, simply tap the 'D' key.

Click on Windows and color. There is a setting there to change from
foreground to background. The one with the box around it is the default setting.

[Solve]Set ibus as default IM when use other english language in gnome

Hello everybody,
I am satisfied with Arch + Gnome3 + Ibus in English language. With English language, Ibus is already set to default system-input-methods as well as I expected.
However, today I change language from english to vietnamese, System-input-methods change to other method, not Ibus.
I looked for programs to change input method such as im-settings, im-chooser and im-switch, but it's not exist in arch package or aur.
I add "export GTK_IM_MODULE="ibus"" to file ~/.bashrc , I can use Ibus only in firefox, libreoffice. To use Ibus with other programs as gedit, gnome-terminal, I must manual change input method by right click and choose Ibus.
So, How can I set Ibus as default system IM?
By the way, I can use Ibus in all Qt applications without trouble after set in qtconfig.
Thanks for reading.

Setting image resolution default to pixels/cm?

Hi all,
A small question: is there a way to set PS CS5's default for image resolution to pxels/cm?
In Preferences (with no file open), I've set rulers to mms, and whatever I can I've changed from pixels/inch to pixels/cm. But when I open an image, and go into Image/Image Size, the dimensions show up in mms but the resolution is still always shown as pixels/inch. Yeah, it's just a single step to drop the option down and change to pixels/cm, but I've got a few hundred images to edit (and manually - they're all in different locations!) And it is just easier for what I'm doing to work in cms - it's a consistent 68 pixels/cm, which is easier to set than 172.72 pixels/inch.
Any way to make PS CS5 default to pixels/cm, please? Thanks for any help.

Try setting to cm's instead of mm's in the preferences under ruler units.
One thing, if you change the ruler units on the rulers themselves, then
you might get a different unit in the image size dialog.

Making mac mail the default instead of entourage

How do you make mac mail your default instead of entourage . It is set up in mac mail reader to receive mail under mac mail 2.1. It still defaults to entourage . I cannot find any place in entourage to change it .

Your default mail program is set in Mail->Preferences->General. Choose which program you want from the drop-down menu, then quit Mail and restart it.
Of course, you'd be helping yourself if you deleted Entourage or at least removed all your account information from it, so that if you ever launched it by accident, it would not be able to send or receive email.

Set Photoshop as default bitmap editor

Can I set Photoshop as default bitmap editor (right click on the library item) instead of Fireworks?
TIA

Thanks you for your reply. Right clicking on an image allows the "open with" option everywhere except Entourage.. Right clicking the image in Entourage only allows "open", not "open with" and then photoshop opens. In order to use Preview, I have to save the attachment to the desktop and then "open with" Preview. The odd thing is double clicking in Entourage used to open images in Previews automatically.

How can I set up a default (pre-recorded) voicemail greeting on iphone 4s?

How can I set up a default (pre-recorded) voicemail greeting on iphone 4s?i dont want a custom one with my voice i want the pre-recorded where a lady says my number . how do i get that?

Voicemail is a cell phone carrier function. Contact your carrier to see if they have this option. If not, i'm sure you can download a sound file from the internet with a greeting and add your name. Then play it back on you PC while holding your iPhone near the speaker when recording the greeting to voicemail.

Well, when I've done things like that it always sems like a good idea to keep an application that you know the file will definitely open in...
