Transparency (true) with transset and xcompmgr

Could someone please point me to a script or tell me have to achieve true transparency in Openbox with xcompmgr and transset (or transset-df)?
I have it working to where you can set them each individually, but I want it set automatically when I start X. I've also tried a couple other things such as the perl script on the transset-df page, but Ihaving gotten something working full proof. Does anything know of something that will help?

What do you mean by "set automatically"?
If you want to have xcompmgr started with X you should add it to your .xinitrc file.
If you want some per app settings, it will be difficult. There's transd but it didn't work for me. I was playing with xcompmgr only for a short time and I used the following script to make urxvt windows transparent.
urxvtc &
sleep 1
transset-df --id `xprop -root | grep "_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW(WINDOW): window id # " | grep -o -E -e 0x[a-z0-9]+` 0.65 &> /dev/null
I use urxvtd deamon and every new window is a client (urxvtc). The script just starts new window, waits a second, then finds an ID of active window (which should be the urxvtc window opened just before) and sends that ID to transset-df. It's just a quick hack but maybe useful for you.

Composing transparent images with WritableImage and PixelWriter

Hi all,
I am trying to port some Swing apps over to JavaFX and have encountered a problem with transparency.
My code is as follows:
WritableImage bgImage = new WritableImage(960, 240);
Image bgTile = new Image(getClass().getResourceAsStream("/resources/background.png"));
Image bgCloud = new Image(getClass().getResourceAsStream("/resources/cloud.png"));
PixelWriter bgWriter = bgImage.getPixelWriter();
for (int i = 0; i < 60; i++) {
bgWriter.setPixels(16 * i, 0, 16, 240, bgTile.getPixelReader(), 0, 0);
bgWriter.setPixels(20, 20, 96, 64, bgCloud.getPixelReader(), 0, 0);
bgWriter.setPixels(500, 20, 96, 64, bgCloud.getPixelReader(), 0, 0);The image background.png is 16x240 and is repeated 60 times along the X axis.
The image cloud.png is 96x64 and is pasted twice on top of the background.
The image cloud.png has transparent edges, but they aren't transparent in the resulting image, they end up being white.
Analogous code in Swing using a BufferedImage works just fine.
Am I missing something here ?

Likely a bug as that form of setPixels is supposed to take transparency into account.
File it with an executable test case and image files to: https://forums.oracle.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=1713
As a workaround, you could create a Canvas and put the images in the canvas.

Transparency issues with INDCS3 and Pantone color

Running Windows XP, Serv Pk 2, Creative Suite CS3, All updates.
Heres the deal: We are having problems with PDFs printing and Ripping when using transparencies and drop shadows.
Issue 1: INDD CS3 file with transparent PDF placed as image. Separate frame filled with paper, stroke and drop shadow placed under trans PDF file. Filled frame areas of percentage tint using a PANTONE color used on same page. File re-PDFed (compat to v6) and file printed correctly to XEROX 7760 and HP color. PDF views correctly. Recommended ordering policy applied to all layers as to keep drop shadow below text. PROBLEM: User running Acro 7 to printing to same color printers, receives copy with color tint areas missing.
Issue 2: INDD CS3 file with solid Pantone color on background. Several text frames layered above. Under text frame a solid box with SOLID Drop shadow. PDFed using Acro 8. PROBLEM: User's RIP and DIGITAL presses do not recognize the drop shadow? White knockout box appears in this area.
It seems that CS3 is handling transparency issues differently and/or that Acro 8 (compat to v6) is doing something different. The Acro 8 users have no problem printing or PDFing.
Could this also be the "known issue" of transparencies and PANTONE colors? We are testing out converting all the colors to CMYK.
Please respond at your earliest.

Ken,
If your final output is to the Xerox, which can't print Spot colors without converting them to CMYK, you should use process colors instead.

Why are some of the game features covered, so therefore, unusable on my facebook games? This is only true with Firefox and not Internet Explorer.

I can't play most of my games on Facebook because some of the feature buttons are covered up. Like the enlarge screen button, and I can't get to some of my neighbors because of this problem. It's like the box you play in, in the middle of the page is to small. It wasn't always like this, it seems like it happened on one of the upgrades but I can't remember which one. I think it may have been this 3.6 one but again I'm not sure. I'm having to use Internet Explorer to play my games on Facebook and I really, really do not like IE. I like Firefox, It is comfortable and easy to use and I really would like to correct this problem as soon as possible!! It's like my page is divided into 3 columns and the middle column is not wide enough. Thank you for your help.

It will be fixed in beta 11.

Transparent proxy with ACE+CE (Client-ip spoof) slow response.

I have configed transparent proxy with ACE and CE510+Bluecoat. I also enable client-ip spoofing. I use PBR for redirect request web page from client to ACE and I also use PBR for return traffic from any web servers to ACE(make complete flow for client-ip spoofing). Any thing is fine, but I have a little bit issue that when I try to browse to the new website and ACE load my request to CE510, I seem long time for page response, I monitor at ACE, it show connection is "ESTABLISH". When first page on these new website response after that I try to browse other pages on these new website, the response is normal. This happen for everytime that I test. I have already send configuration of ACE and CE. Anyone, please see anything that I config is correct. Thank you very much.

FF4 tells me it's not compatible with Norton and SafeCentral...is this true?

When I downloaded FF4 it said it was not compatible with Norton and SafeCentral security systems I use on my laptop. Yet they show they are working on my computer. Are they working or aren't they when I have FF4 open?

We have released a new version of the plugin that is compatible with Firefox 4.
See the link below to install it or call us at 866-545-1959 for any assistance.

Thunderbolt camera stopped working with Skype and Google Hangouts

Some time ago my built in camera on the thunderbolt stopped working with Skype. If I activate the camera the green light turns on but the screen either remains black or it shows that spinning loading incon forever. The green light stays on indicating the camera is active no matter what I do with skype even if I press the button to deactivate the camera. The green light remains on until you completely kill skype. Rebooting, reinstalling skype, etc. does nothing.
Today I disocvered I have the same thing with Google hangouts. All the way around exactly the same and the green light won't turn off until you kill the web browser. Same thing with FireFox or Safari. Also it no longer works on Viber either.
It's quite infuriating.
I am not sure if this has anything to do with this awful virus like program called "CamTwist" that I installed once and had a very difficult time removing or not.
Reinstalling OS X from scratch is not an option. Too much work, too many programs to reinstall and reconfigure etc.
How can I get my camera back?
The camera works just fine with Photobooth and facetime.
Thanks.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
The test works on OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later. I don't recommend running it on older versions of OS X. It will do no harm, but it won't do much good either.
Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of it have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message. See, for example, this discussion.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. Try to test under conditions that reproduce the problem, as far as possible. For example, if the computer is sometimes, but not always, slow, run the test during a slowdown.
You may have started up in "safe" mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, a series of lines will appear in the Terminal window like this:
[Process started]
 Part 1 of 8 done at … sec
 Part 8 of 8 done at … sec
 The test results are on the Clipboard.
 Please close this window.
[Process completed]
The intervals between parts won't be exactly equal, but they give a rough indication of progress. The total number of parts may be different from what's shown here.
Wait for the final message "Process completed" to appear. If you don't see it within about ten minutes, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, press the key combination control-C or command-period to stop it and go to the next step. You'll have incomplete results, but still something.
12. When the test is complete, or if you stopped it because it was taking too long, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I may not agree with them.

Transparent bg w/ png and no show in browser

Hi,
Trying this out. However, the PNG file does not display at all when I test in the browser, after placed on my site.
I even tried to remove the instances of 'transparent' in the CSS and replaced with a regular hex code, just to see if the controls would display.
All I get is the player in a solid color, can see the name of track and artist... but no controls, and no icons for the drop down to reveal more tracks, etc.
When I mouse over the player, I do get the pointer so can get tracks to actually play. It's working, but controls are invisible as is the PNG artwork for the player itself.
Any idea why that would be?
Thank you!

Fluxbox, Xgl And Xcompmgr Issues

Hi all,
I want to get xcompmgr working with fluxbox. It works as is, but is very slow (I suspect because there is no Xgl). So I installed Xgl and made startxgl as described in the xgl wiki page. When I try and start Xgl, it says something like:
Fatal server error no glx modules loaded

That doesn't work at all.

Problem with JFrame and busy/wait Cursor

Hi -- I'm trying to set a JFrame's cursor to be the busy cursor,
for the duration of some operation (usually just a few seconds).
I can get it to work in some situations, but not others.
Timing does seem to be an issue.
There are thousands of posts on the BugParade, but
in general Sun indicates this is not a bug. I just need
a work-around.
I've written a test program below to demonstrate the problem.
I have the problem on Solaris, running with both J2SE 1.3 and 1.4.
I have not tested on Windows yet.
When you run the following code, three JFrames will be opened,
each with the same 5 buttons. The first "F1" listens to its own
buttons, and works fine. The other two (F2 and F3) listen
to each other's buttons.
The "BUSY" button simply sets the cursor on its listener
to the busy cursor. The "DONE" button sets it to the
default cursor. These work fine.
The "SLEEP" button sets the cursor, sleeps for 3 seconds,
and sets it back. This does not work.
The "INVOKE LATER" button does the same thing,
except is uses invokeLater to sleep and set the
cursor back. This also does not work.
The "DELAY" button sleeps for 3 seconds (giving you
time to move the mouse into the other (listerner's)
window, and then it behaves just like the "SLEEP"
button. This works.
Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks.

I've had the same problems with cursors and repaints in a swing application, and I was thinking of if I could use invokeLater, but I never got that far with it.
I still believe you would need a thread for the time consuming task, and that invokeLater is something you only need to use in a thread different from the event thread.

Problem with Firefox and very heavy memory usage

For several releases now, Firefox has been particularly heavy on memory usage. With its most recent version, with a single browser instance and only one tab, Firefox consumes more memory that any other application running on my Windows PC. The memory footprint grows significantly as I open additional tabs, getting to almost 1GB when there are 7 or 8 tabs open. This is as true with no extensions or pluggins, and with the usual set, (firebug, fire cookie, fireshot, XMarks). Right now, with 2 tabs, the memory is at 217,128K and climbing, CPU is between 0.2 and 1.5%.
I have read dozens of threads providing "helpful" suggestions, and tried any that seem reasonable. But like most others who experience Firebug's memory problems, none address the issue.
Firefox is an excellent tool for web developers, and I rely on it heavily, but have now resorted to using Chrome as the default and only open Firefox when I must, in order to test or debug a page.
Is there no hope of resolving this problem? So far, from responses to other similar threads, the response has been to deny any responsibility and blame extensions and/or pluggins. This is not helpful and not accurate. Will Firefox accept ownership for this problem and try to address it properly, or must we continue to suffer for your failings?

55%, it's still 1.6Gb....there shouldn't be a problem scanning something that it says will take up 300Mb, then actually only takes up 70Mb.
And not wrong, it obviously isn't releasing the memory when other applications need it because it doesn't, I have to close PS before it will release it. Yes, it probably is supposed to release it, but it isn't.
Thank you for your answer (even if it did appear to me to be a bit rude/shouty, perhaps something more polite than "Wrong!" next time) but I'm sitting at my computer, and I can see what is using how much memory and when, you can't.

How do I set miminum # of connections for pool with Oracle and Tomcat?

Hi,
I can't seem to find any attribute to initialize the number of connections for my connection pool. Here is my current context.xml file under my /App1 directory:
<Context path="/App1" docBase="App1"
debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
<Resource name="App1ConnectionPool" auth="Container"
type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:oddjob"
user="app1" password="app1" />
</Context>
I've been googling and reading forums, but haven't found a way to establish the minimum number of connections. I've tried all sorts of parameters like InitialLimit, MinLimit, MinActive, etc, with no success.
Here is some sample code that I am testing:
package web;
import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
import javax.naming.*;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;
import java.util.Properties;
public class ConnectionPool {
String message = "Not Connected";
public void init() {
OracleConnection conn = null;
ResultSet rst = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try {
Context initContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
OracleDataSource ds = (OracleDataSource) envContext.lookup("App1ConnectionPool");
message = "Here.";
 String user = ds.getUser();
if (envContext == null)
throw new Exception("Error: No Context");
if (ds == null)
throw new Exception("Error: No DataSource");
if (ds != null) {
message = "Trying to connect...";
conn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put("PROXY_USER_NAME", "adavey/xxx");
if (conn != null) {
message = "Got Connection " + conn.toString() + ", ";
 conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,prop);
stmt = conn.createStatement();
rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT username, server from v$session where username is not null");
while (rst.next()) {
message = "DS User: " + user + "; DB User: " + rst.getString(1) + "; Server: " + rst.getString(2);
rst.close();
rst = null;
stmt.close();
stmt = null;
conn.close(); // Return to connection pool
conn = null; // Make sure we don't close it twice
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// Always make sure result sets and statements are closed,
// and the connection is returned to the pool
if (rst != null) {
try {
rst.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
rst = null;
if (stmt != null) {
try {
stmt.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
stmt = null;
if (conn != null) {
try {
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
conn = null;
public String getMessage() {
return message;
I'm using a utility to repeatedly call a JSP page that uses this class and displays the message variable. This utility allows me to specify the number of concurrent web requests and an overall number of requests to try. While that is running, I look at V$SESSION in Oracle and occassionaly, I will see a brief entry for app1 or adavey depending on the timing of my query and how far along the code has processed in this example. So it seems that I am only using one connection at a time and not a true connection pool.
Is it possible that I need to use the oci driver instead of the thin driver? I've looked at the javadoc for oci and the OCIConnectionPool has a setPoolConfig method to set initial, min and max connections. However, it appears that this can only be set via Java code and not as a parameter in my context.xml resource file. If I have to set it each time I get a database connection, it seems like it sort of defeats the purpose of having Tomcat maintain the connection pool for me and that I need to implement my own connection pool. I'm a newbie to this technology so I really don't want to go this route.
Any advice on setting up a proper connection pool that works with Tomcat and Oracle proxy sessions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alan

Well I did some more experiments and I am able to at least create a connection pool within my example code:
package web;
import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
import javax.naming.*;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;
import java.util.Properties;
public class ConnectionPool {
String message = "Not Connected";
public void init() {
OracleConnection conn = null;
ResultSet rst = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try {
Context initContext = new InitialContext();
Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
OracleDataSource ds = (OracleDataSource) envContext.lookup("App1ConnectionPool");
message = "Here.";
 String user = ds.getUser();
if (envContext == null)
throw new Exception("Error: No Context");
if (ds == null)
throw new Exception("Error: No DataSource");
if (ds != null) {
message = "Trying to connect...";
boolean cache_enabled = ds.getConnectionCachingEnabled();
if (!cache_enabled){
ds.setConnectionCachingEnabled(true);
Properties cacheProps = new Properties();
cacheProps.put("InitialLimit","5");
 cacheProps.put("MinLimit","5");
cacheProps.put("MaxLimit","10");
ds.setConnectionCacheProperties(cacheProps);
 conn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
Properties prop = new Properties();
prop.put("PROXY_USER_NAME", "adavey/xyz");
if (conn != null) {
message = "Got Connection " + conn.toString() + ", ";
 conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,prop);
stmt = conn.createStatement();
//rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT 'Success obtaining connection' FROM DUAL");
rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT user, SYS_CONTEXT ('USERENV', 'SESSION_USER') from dual");
while (rst.next()) {
message = "DS User: " + user + "; DB User: " + rst.getString(1) + "; sys_context: " + rst.getString(2);
message += "; Was cache enabled?: " + cache_enabled;
rst.close();
rst = null;
stmt.close();
stmt = null;
conn.close(OracleConnection.PROXY_SESSION); // Return to connection pool
conn = null; // Make sure we don't close it twice
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
// Always make sure result sets and statements are closed,
// and the connection is returned to the pool
if (rst != null) {
try {
rst.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
rst = null;
if (stmt != null) {
try {
stmt.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
stmt = null;
if (conn != null) {
try {
conn.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
conn = null;
public String getMessage() {
return message;
In my context.xml file, I tried to specify the same Connection Cache Properties as attributes, but no luck:
<Context path="/App1" docBase="App1"
debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
<Resource name="App1ConnectionPool" auth="Container"
type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver"
factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:oddjob"
user="app1" password="app1"
ConnectionCachingEnabled="1" MinLimit="5" MaxLimit="20"/>
</Context>
These attributes seemed to have no effect:
ConnectionCachingEnabled="1" ; also tried "true"
MinLimit="5"
MaxLimit="20"
So basically if I could find some way to get these attributes set within the context.xml file instead of my code, I would be a happy developer :-)
Oh well, it's almost Miller time here on the east coast. Maybe a few beers will help me find the solution I'm looking for.
