Total Newbie...help! start KDE?
Maybe I shouldn't be messing with Arch/KDE/etc., but I'm just trying to learn here! I installed Arch, and used pacman to install KDE 4.2. All I know how to do is log into root.....how do I start KDE?!? I tried startkde, to no avail. I really don't know much of anything about the Unix command line....ugh!
Thanks!
Begginer's Guide is nice and useful but with new xorg some parts should be rewritten.
E.g. you have only
Xorg -configure
tool to make xorg.conf file and it does not always work (for me it didn't). However, if you first add hal to your daemons in /etc/rc.conf, xserver should start with no xorg.conf at all.
I do not know if you need special keyboard layout (gb, pl, se or whatever).
Adding it without xorg.conf is possible but I didn't find any howto.
What worked on my laptop (thanks to rusty99):
Created /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
<device>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keymap">
<append key="info.callouts.add" type="strlist">hal-setup-keymap</append>
</match>
<match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keys">
<merge key="input.xkb.rules" type="string">base</merge>
<merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">keyboard</merge>
<match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.kernel.name" string="Linux">
<merge key="input.xkb.model" type="string">evdev</merge>
</match>
<merge key="input.xkb.layout" type="string">pl</merge>
<merge key="input.xkb.variant" type="string">qwerty</merge>
</match>
</device>
</deviceinfo>
added
setxkbmap pl
to my ~/.xinitrc file before starting window manager, in your case before
exec startkde
If you uncomment exec startkde in this file, you should start kde with command
startx
or
xinit

Total Newbie Help Illustrator CC
Well I will first off admit two important things:
1. I just now joined the forum while in my 3rd day of trying to get over my first major issue: therefore I have not searched this forum at all for my answer and out of pure frustration I am posting this before bed in hopes having some friendly advice in the morning and no suggestions to search the forum, except of course helpful or suggested links.
2. I have only been using Illustrator for 3 days. No prior knowledge and several of these hours have been watching youtube videos and taking notes as if in college.
So there you have it. ihave spent the last 3 days trying to get over something surely pretty simple. I have learned many other helpful things in my youtube ventures as well as reading the manual and some helpful articles. I have been drawing for most of my life and I want to learn illustrator to have control of digitizing my own art while editing and perfecting it along the way with the vision I have for it. I cant expect anyone else to have the same vision as me so I want to be the one who translates it to the next level whether it be for a T-shirt or a sticker. I am getting started by digitizing a logo of mine. I figured I would do something pretty simple. I have a vision for it and I figure I can easily acheive it as a beginner project. It is basically some linework and I am going to add some scrollwork at the bottom and some simple lettering. I started with the outline of the logo itself and have already run into a major problem in which i foresee myself encountering for almost every project, thats why I assume there mjust be a simple solution. The logo is similar to a transformers logo as far as the outside with three arrows that make 3 letters inside each other that share lines so to say.
Regardless lest just say i am making a fat box letter style v with an arrowhead on one end at the top left. I can draw this either with the pen tool or the line segment tool. I use shift to keep the lines 90 deg. and I connect the lines to each other at the end. Andthats where my problem arises. When I zoom in to the image the lines touch in the middle but they do not form sharp corners. There must be some way to snap these outside corners together instead of looking like there is a square chunk missing from the outer corners. If I change the stroke to have the anchors iside the extended end then the lines extend to overlap each other but still not long enogh for the sharp point of the corner. The desired effect I have is a sharp corner that fits together as simply as the corners look when choosing the rounded ends. I hope this makes sense enough for yall to understand
Thanks in advance for any and all advice,
Dylan KailDylan,
In addition to what tman said, what you need is to have a closed path, using the right Stroke palette options for Cap (Butt or Projecting) and Join (Miter, with a sufficient Miter Limit to get a pointy end at the angles in question).
and I connect the lines to each other at the end.
You should create one closed path by joining the relevant (end) Anchor Points.
In CC you can do that by just selecting the paths to be joined and clicking Ctrl/Cmd+J.
But the relevant points have to be end Anchor Points, which means that the paths to be joined have to be open. You may cut paths by:
A) Clicking a path segment with the Direct Selection Tool and press delete; this will delete the segment and make the agjacent Anchor Points into end Anchor Points;
Or:
B) Clicking each Anchor Point to become an end Anchor Point with the Scissors Tool, then deleting the segment(s) in between.
As it appears, it makes little difference whether you use the Pen Tool or the Line Segment Tool before joining (it would in (some) earlier versions). -

Total newbie, help me out please!
So i've bought a new mac mini, fully upgraded via apple,
With pre installed FCE,
(enough for my needs)
I want to buy an external hard drive,
Do i buy a "g technology g drive"
Or a "g technology g raid"
help, i'm going to buy one of them really soon!
Both the same price, both 2 tb, it seems the raid is made for final cut production, but if i'm just using a mac mini will it matter?
Using a mac mini for FCE is already a limiting factor for FCE, so will it matter if my hd is a g tech raid drive, or not?
Thanks
Sincerely,
NewbieI have used mirrored raids for 20 years. I have found that if you are trying to protect from a simple data error its ok. If however there is a system glitch that scatters bad data - it will most likely scatter bad data on the mirror too- a bad fact of life. For my part I prefer 2 separate spindles with a regular backup from my working spindle to my hot spare. Usually separated by 24 hours with a data verification step in the middle. I also run a third spindle on hot projects where the backup is "like" a mirror but is instead a synch to the third spindle. Not for everyone but i have been burnt too many times " 10 minutes" before i have to deliver, And, Now that I am horsing around with FCE the need to save my time is even more critical.

Total newbie for jsp..plz help
frendz...me a total newbie to jsp.havin some problem in it.i have already installed jdk,jwsdp2.0 wif its tomcat container.Already set the path for both ..such as JAVA_HOME=E:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06
TOMCAT_HOME=E:\tomcat50-jwsdp
and could execute the sample jsp's perfectly.But having problem wif my jsp tutorials. such as when i wrote this counter codes in notepad..
<%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" language="java" import="java.sql.*" errorPage="" %>
<html>
<head>
<tittle>Jsp Declaration</tittle>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Declarations</h1>
<%! int j=0;%>
<h2>Counter</h2>
<p>This page has been hit <span> <% ++j %> </span> times since it was first loaded.</p>
</body>
</html>
and i paste it in webapps in tomcat folder.
What should i do to view the jsp file?isaved as counter.jsp.if i right click and view it in IE/firefox it only shows the source code.is there any mistake in the codes?or i did i do anything wrong?how shall i compile these files?help me aout wif my basics please.thanks bro's.."I pasted it in webapps in tomcat folder".
Webapplications need to go in their own subdirectory inside the webapps directory. Say you want a webapp 'test', then you would store your JSP as
TOMCAT_DIR\webapps\test\counter.jsp
Now you can open this JSP in your browser. Assuming Tomcat is running on the localhost and the default port 8080, the url would be:
http://localhost:8080/test/counter.jsp
If that doesn't work something is horribly misconfigured. -
[SOLVED] failed to start kde, kdeinit4 depends on libpng15.so.15
Hi,
I made a minimal kde installation (kde-base). When trying to start kde with xinit, I got the following error:
/usr/bin/kdeinit4: error while loading shared libraries: libpng15.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file of directory
I check with:
ldd /usr/bin/kdeinit4 | grep png
which return:
libpng15.so.15 => not found
I update my packages with Pacman -Syu without any success
The libpng15.so.15 seem to no longer exist (have been replaced by libpng16)
I'm only using the official repos
I'm a total newb. I made some research before posting but I'm out of any clues
and sorry for the bad english...
Thanks for any help

reconazable...
$fred.setIcon();
Could some one please help me :)
Thanks in advance,
jdYou need to study up on what Java is, how it works, syntax, etc. It seems you don't have the first clue how to write a valid Java class. This is fine, and of course that's where you have to start, but I think your time will be better spent reading the tutorials (links to which can be found on your left) than getting piecemeal help here on the forums. When you've gotten a handle on what classes, objects, variables, and methods are, and gotten some idea about syntax, come back with more specific problems and people will be more than willing to help you. Also, post to the New to Java Technology forum rather than this one.

Unable start KDE in a new ArchLinux Installation

This advice will actually be obsolete come this time tomorrow, as KDE 4.6 no longer uses hal. You could try it out for troubleshooting; just remember to remove hal after the 4.6 upgrade.
You may still need hal; some programs still depend on it. -
Start KDE o xfce in Solaris 10
Hi
I newbie with Solaris and don't know how start kde or xfce.
I just installed the free software cd from the sun's cds.
Thanks in advance.
robertoinstalling KDE means you have the code for the specific UNIX version, so for example there are codes for GNU Linux and for several distributions not for all and not in all versions of KDE...
I know there are codes for KDE 3.2 for solaris 10 but then you would need to compile it under solaris gcc and then you would be able to install it...
KDE3.4 code for solaris 10 is still on development... -

Im still confused...but that will pass in time
As for the code in the first post... that was from a scrip i wrote
but the section i posted NetBeans wrote. here is the whole scrip...
All i really want to do is put pictures on labels...and i thought, why write
the same code for every button, ill just make a function out of the whole setIcon bit and call it for each label that needs a picture, passing the url of the picture off to the function... Below gets me one pic on one label, so
how can i reproduce this efffect on other lables using the same code over and over?
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class HelloWorldSwing {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("HelloWorldSwing");

JPanel pan = new JPanel();
pan.setLayout(new GridLayout(1,3,10,10));
pan.add(label);
pan.add(jd_label);
pan.add(tex);

I know that there has been a million discussion topics on starting KDE or GNOME but I have edited my .xinitrc file in my home directory to:
source /sw/bin/init.sh
/sw/bin/startkde >/tmp/kde.log 2>&1
and it just makes my xdarwin automatically quit. If I try to manualy start kde through the xterm by typing "startkde" it says that there is no such command. I have also tried to edit my .xinitrc file to several other things that people have said to do and nothing works at all. The only way that I can get XDarwin to start and run is by having an .xinitrc file that reads:
#!/bin/sh

I have had trouble trying to get kde for some time now. For a while, I was having trouble compiling kde through fink because fink couldn't connect to any mirrors. I was able to get through the compile process today or at least that is what I think because after compiling for a while, I get a message at the bottom of fink commander saying, "done" but it is not saying "current" in the status column. Does anyone know how I could check to see if I have it? I am very confused right now, I am pulling my hair out trying to figure this out. On my desktopp running 10.3 I was able to just install kde through fink, edit my .xinitrc file and I was starting kde without a problem. Now when I try and put it on my ibook, first I have trouble finding it through fink, then I have trouble getting dependencies through fink, then I have trouble with the mirrors and now I'm stuck on the .xinitrc file (thats even if I have installed kde properly at all). I have no hair left to pull out anymore! Can someone please help me?
p.s. Bill Scott, I have followed all of the directions on your site, can you tell me what that was?
--MattHi Thierry,
I wasn't saying that it doesn't work. I don't use KDE so there are plenty of things I don't know about it. Is it it's own window manager or do you also run a window manager? What do you exec in your ~/.xinitrc?
If that's what's recommended then definitely include the redirection of output to the log. That's why I said "something like ...". I wasn't trying to dictate the form of the startkde part of the line. I was only suggesting that it be "execed". That way, when you logout of KDE, X11 quits, which is why the writers of X11 substituted the execution of the xinitrc script for the main process. You certainly wouldn't want X11 to quit when you exited an xterm.
I apologize for not discussing the flexibility of process. Explaining the need for the "exec" command is a fairly lengthy discourse already and I didn't want to write a book. However, it is still necessary to have an "exec" command at the end of the xinitrc and the reasons I gave for what to "exec" are still valid. You could certainly exec a window manager instead of KDE but I would think that you'd want KDE to have control over whether X11 is running.
Of course the situation is more flexible with Mac OS X because there are other ways of stopping X11, like with the menu. On other flavors of UNIX, when you logout of KDE, you probably want to logout of the computer altogether. The command I provided is essentially what is used on Red Hat Linux if Gnome isn't installed so I didn't just make it up. Anyway, I hope the explanation of how the xinitrc works benefits some.

Why xfce would start kde related process
hi all:
I am installed kde and xfce in my laptop.and I start kde or xfce using xinit. but recently ,when I start xfce ,it would start some kde processes automaticly , they are : kdevtmpfs , kdeinit4 , kded4 . and these processes take a long time during the xfce start(if these processes not start automaticly, it would be fast). how it happen , any one could help me ?

ps : when i start my pc before run 'xinit xfce' , there are no these kde processes. do you have any idea ? -
One day when I booted my computer (without making any previous changes or updates that I know of) I found myself at the command line login instead of kdm. When I after loging in run:
sudo kdm
Nothing happens, and when i try:
startkde
The resulting message is:
$DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to x server
I have tried to find a solution to this but the few things I found didn't yield any results, any ideas?
Edit: It also stays "busy" abnormaly long during the boot process (maybe half a minute) at "waiting for udev uevents to be processed" It might have something to do with but I'm not sure

gave me this:

That seems like it could be helpful

NictraSavios: The exec line is there and it looks like this:
exec xterm -geometry 80x66+0+0 -name login
Although it's not a hidden file in my home directory as I thought it was supposed to be but instead it's here: /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
broken pipe:
sudo /etc/rc.d./dbus restart
gave this
Stopping D-BUS system messagebus [DONE]
Starting D-BUS system messagebus [DONE]
And
sudo /etc/rc.d/kdm restart
gave this
Stopping KDE Desktop Manager [DONE]
Starting KDE Desktop Manager [FAIL]
for Xorg log look above
Hope this helps

KDM with XGL used to start KDE issues
Hi,
I don't know if this problem was ever mentioned but if XGL/KDE is started from KDM using XGL http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xgl … M_uses_XGL there is no possibility to run OpenGL apps even with DISPLAY=:0 added. All attempts end with
Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer
Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
Error: couldn't get fbconfig
while if I follow second method, New KDM entry starts KDE with XGL, I'm able to run all apps.
Since I don't like issues which come with second option and I would like to run software like Google Earth I'm looking for answer if someone have solution how to fix this problem.

I am using elements 10 and only getting audio not video. Can anyone please explain why? I am a total newbie to video.

Just saw your thread, and it looked like a candidate for the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA GeForce Roll Back the Driver issue. If your computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card, then the following applies to you. You do not want to update the driver. Rather you want to roll back the driver version, probably to about May 2013. For your convenience I have done a copy/paste of the forum announcement which gives all the details and fix of the matter.
Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling back the video card driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of the problems. The typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
Older NVIDIA GeForce drivers can be found
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us
A February 2014 overview of the situation as well as how to use the older NVIDIA GeForce drivers for the driver roll back can be found
http://atr935.blogspot.com/2014/02/pe10-nvidia-video-card-roll-back.html
This matter has been very specific to the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA GeForce card user. So, if your computer is using other than a NVIDIA GeForce card, it is likely that the message does not apply to you, and we can then explore other troubleshooting possibities.
Looking forward to your follow up. Do not hesitate to ask for clarification on anything written here.
Thanks.
