Two different X sessions; one on tty7/one on tty8

Is it possible to have user foo have an X session on tty7 and to have user bar have an X session on tty8? One can run gdm or lightdm and then 'switch users' but I'd rather not have a greeter at all and just rely on Clt+Alt+F7 or Clt+Alt+F8.
Thanks.

Okie doke... Let me try again.
I have xdm-archlinux installed.
in /etc/inittab, I am starting xdm
id:5:initdefault:
x:5:respawn:/usr/bin/xdm -nodaemon -config /etc/X11/xdm/archlinux/xdm-config
Normally in /etc/X11/xdm/archlinux you have a file called Xresources. I copy that and call the copied file Xresources1
Inside /etc/X11/xdm/archlinux/xdm-config I have added the lines shown
DisplayManager._1.setup: /etc/X11/xdm/archlinux/Xsetup
DisplayManager._1.startup: /etc/X11/xdm/archlinux/Xstartup
DisplayManager._1.reset: /etc/X11/xdm/TakeConsole
DisplayManager._1.resources: /etc/X11/xdm/archlinux/Xresources1
Inside the Xresource file there is a line in which I change the greeting
Xlogin*greeting:User1 Normally the greeting shows the computer name, but I want it to show the username of the user (not really the actual username, but an identifier. I substitute my last name where I stated previoulsy "User1" Inside the file Xresources1, I change the greeting to the last name of User2
Did that make sense? What you describe in your new thread is exactly what I am doing with xdm on tty7 and tty8 So for me xdm is starting twice. Once in tty7 and again in tty8. So User1 can login to tty7 and tty8 is still showing a login screen on tty8. Of course it doesn't mater who logs in first, but because User1 is used to tty7 and User2 is used to tty8 I put the names at each login greeting.
Make sure you have the extra server in /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers
:0 local /usr/bin/X :0
:1 local /usr/bin/X :1

HT201250 Can I use Time Machine on two different Macs to back up to one external drive?

Can I use Time Machine on two different Macs to back up to one external drive?
I have one 1T Western Digital backup drive that works well with Time Machine and my MacBook Pro. I now want to back up my wife's MacBook Air using Time Machine on her Mac and want to know if I can use the same WD external drive or if I need to get a 2nd back up drive? If I can use one external drive for the two Macs do I need to do something special on the drive or will Time Machine do it automatically?

Yes. You will need to configure Time Machine preferences on each computer to backup to the same drive. Note that you cannot connect the backup drive to both machines at the same time.

Can you please help me by saying me how can i join two different picture to make it as one picture.??

Hi Sir/ Madam,
My name is Rishav and I am facing some problem with my Photoshop CC. Actually I have a question. If you guys could help me out i will be very obliged. The quest in "Can you please help me by saying me how can i join two different picture to make it as one picture.??"

Maybe you should post over at

or start with the "Get Started" section of the Help:

And your question
Can you please help me by saying me how can i join two different picture to make it as one picture.??
does not seem particularly specific – do you want to simply combine two images as they are, do you want to clip elements from the one and insert them into the other, …?
Could you post (lores of) the images and explain what you intend to achieve?

Is there a way that you can have two different text fields (email, phone) that one at least one of them must be completed before submitting the form? Can it be done using javascript in the validation tab? if so, how?

Is there a way that you can have two different text fields (email, phone) that one at least one of them must be completed before submitting the form? Can it be done using javascript in the validation tab? if so, how?

Here is one solution:
// mouse up action for submit button;
function GetField(cName) {
// get field object for cName field with error checking;
var oField = this.getField(cName);
if(oField == null) app.alert("Error accessing field named " + cName + "\nPleae verigy field name, spelling and capitalizeation.", 1, 0);
return oField;
} // end GetField function;
var oPhone = GetField("phone");
oPhone.required = oPhone.value == oPhone.defaultValue;
var oEmail = GetField("email");
oEmail.required = oEmail.value == oEmail.defaultValue;
if(oPhone.required && oEmail.required) {
app.alert("Missing required fields.", 1, 0);
} else {
app.alert("Submitting form", 3, 0);
// additional code for submission;

get the sessions id before we invalidate the duplicate session.
Checkintests pass
Modified Paths:
    blazeds/trunk/modules/core/src/flex/messaging/endpoints/BaseHTTPEndpoint.java

For our profect I think this issue was caused as follows:
Believing that remoting was full asynchronous we fired a 2 or 3 remote calls to the server at the same time ( within the same function ) - usually when the users goes to a new section of the app.
This seemed to trigger the duplicate http session error since according to http://blogs.adobe.com/lin/2011/05/duplication-session-error.html two remote calls arriving before a session is created will cause 2 sessions to be created.
Our current solution ( too early to say it works ) is to daisy chain the multiple calls together .
Also there seemed to be an issue where mobile apps that never quit ( thanks Apple! ) caused the error when activated after a few hours.
I guess the session expires on the server and the error above occurs on activation.
So the mobile apps now ping the server with a remote call when activated after sleeping for more than one hour.
All duplicate http errors are silently caught and reported.
Fingers crossed we won't get any more!

Convert two different computer logins with itunes to one computer login with 2 itunes libraries

I am trying to combine two users from my old computer to just one user on my new computer. what folders of itunes do I need to transfer so we can have just one log in to the computer with two different itunes accounts? Basically, I'm trying to take two different itunes libraries and put them into one library with two different logins (users)

Hi dbricetyler,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
If you are trying to move the iTunes Media folder from two different computer user accounts to a single user account on your new computer, there are several different ways you can accomplish this. Please read over and use the following article as a reference to help you accomplish moving the content over to your new computer.

Can two different SRM clients systems connect to one R/3 Back-end system?

Hello,
Trying to developing SRM Co-Exist/Global strategy, based on the following scenario:
1. Two different SRM client systems, each at DIFFERENT SRM Version/Release Level. SRM system "A" runs in Stand-Alone and Extend Classic Scenario mode. SRM system "B" runs in Classic Scenario mode
2. Two different R/3 back-end systems, each with SAME R/3 4.7 Version/Release Level.
Question 1: Can the two (2) different SRM client systems be connected to one (1) of the R/3 back-end systems?
Question 2: Are there any Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) issues/difficulties to consider from either the SRM client or R/3 back-end side?
Question 3: Does each SRM client need it own unique transaction document type(s) and number range(s) definitions?
Question 4: Are there any other difficulties, for example, with RFC and Partner Profile related definitions and what are the steps to address/resolve difficulties?
Please advise and thanks in advance for your feedback!
Regards,
Ed

Question 1: Can the two (2) different SRM client systems be connected to one (1) of the R/3 back-end systems?
They can be connected
Question 2: Are there any Basis Plug-In (PI_BASIS) issues/difficulties to consider from either the SRM client or R/3 back-end side?
Make sure that you have unique consumer entries for Middleware for Material replication, RFCs etc
Question 3: Does each SRM client need it own unique transaction document type(s) and number range(s) definitions?
Yes you need to have them.
Question 4: Are there any other difficulties, for example, with RFC and Partner Profile related definitions and what are the steps to address/resolve difficulties?
Don't see any difficulties as long as the a structured approach is followed.

One target table is loading from two different source but same columns but one source is in a database and other is in a flat file.

Hope you all are doing good.
I have a business issue to be implemented in ODI 11G. Here it is. I am trying to load a target table from two sources having same coulmn names. But one source is in file format and other is in Oracle Database.
This is what i think i will create two mappings in the same interface using Union between the sources. But i am not sure how the interface would connect to different logical architecture to connect to two different sources.
Thanks,
SM

You are on the right track, this can all be done in a single interface. Do the following
1) Pull your file data model into the source designer and and your target table model to the target pane.
2) Map all the relevant columns
3) In the source designer create a new dataset and choose the UNION join type (this will create a separate tab in the source designer pane)
4) Select the new dataset tab in the source designer pane and pull your source oracle table data model into the source designer. Map all the relevant columns to the target
5) Make sure that your staging location is defined on a relational technology i.e. in this case the target would be an ideal candidate as that is where ODI will stage the data from both file and oracle source and perform the UNION before loading to the target
If you want to look at some pretty screenshots showing the steps above take a look at http://odiexperts.com/11g-oracle-data-integrator-part-611g-union-minus-intersect/

Merging two different R/3 clients in to One...

Hello All,
I have a requirement in which i have to merge two different SAP R/3 clients in to one, which further connected to BI system for reporting, earlier reporting was done from two different clients, after merge it has to be done with one system only.
need help from someone who has done this before.
Please provide the steps to do this task.
Thanks in Advance.
Rgds,
Zakir

I did it couple of years back -
1. Identify common BW objects - Master date Cubes etc
2. Identify the objects only relevant to client which is going away - need to check these in BW for continuity purposes
3. Indentify datasources - common for both the clients (same datasource in both the clients)
4. If same datasource, have a look at the enhancements - as enhancements may vary
5. Generic datasources
6. special attention to datasources of client going away as those shall be inlcuded in client staying
7. authorisation shall come later
8 most of the reporting can be handled by multiproviders
Hope it helps

BEx report -two different calculations for a result for one key figure how?

All,
Maybe someone could help me with the following, we have a requirement to setup for one key figure two calculations for result rows. One result (average) for one level, and on a higher level -grand total have a (sum), as for our business it makes sense to do it this way. We have setup average for this KF, we get correct results (see below values 7,5 & 6,5) however for the grand total (across multiple products) so for one level up we need to have a different calculation. How could we achieve this?
Here is an example:
location     product          inventory
AAAA     11111          5
AAAA     11111          5
AAAA     11111          10
AAAA     11111          10
AAAA     Result          7,5      ---> average
AAAA     22222          5
AAAA     22222          6
AAAA     22222          7
AAAA     22222          8
AAAA     Result          6,5       -
> average
AAAA     Result (across products)          14      ---> here I want to have a sum of averages

This could be achieve only IF you upload a hierarchy for product inventory with different levels, wherein each level show subtotals and finally grand total will be shown at the end of the results.

How can I have two different styles of hyperlink text on one page?

Hi
I'm using an external css document to control the look of my site, and would like to have two differnet types of hyperlink.
One for within the content text, which would be the same size and style as the content text, and one that is BIGGER and BOLDER for 'title' hyperlinks.
At the minute I have one set up for the content text, which is:
a:link {
color: #0000CC;
text-decoration: none;
a:visited {
text-decoration: none;
color: #666666;
a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
color: #0000CC;
a:active {
text-decoration: none;
color: #666666;
How can I set another style up for the title links without affecting the look of the content links??

Pseudo-classes & Descendant selectors is what you're after...
From your example, I would leave those styles for your standard links and would create new rules for the content area and then follow similar for your 'titles' or you could use Headings <h1> are they are actually headings that you want styled.
The following is assuming that you have used a Div or a container with an ID of mainContent.
#mainContent a:link {
     text-decoration: underline;
     color: #66CC99;
#mainContent a:visited {
     text-decoration: underline;
     color: #66CC99;
#mainContent a:hover {
     text-decoration: none;
     color: #333333;
     background-color: #FFFFFF;
#mainContent a:active {
     text-decoration: underline;
     color: #66CC99;
For another area of the page, say a left sidebar and gave it an ID of #leftcolumn
(I've used the same styles for easier copying pasting, but naturally, you would style then differently)
#leftcolumn a:link {
     text-decoration: underline;
     color: #66CC99;
#leftcolumn a:visited {
     text-decoration: underline;
     color: #66CC99;
#leftcolumn a:hover {
     text-decoration: none;
     color: #333333;
     background-color: #FFFFFF;
#leftcolumn a:active {
     text-decoration: underline;
     color: #66CC99;

Two different photos appear in an Event, one photo is on top of the other. Please help!

I own a Mac Book Air OS X computer. In one iPhoto Event I have 936 photos. I noticed that two completely different photos in the Event are on top of each other. "Landscape photo A" appears in the slideshow bar at the bottom of the Event, while "Face photo B" appears on the Viewing screen. Two photos are stored one on top of the other. The photos were taken on the same trip, but on different days. I have tried to re-number or re-date all the photos in the Event, hoping that it would separate these photos. I have also tried to duplicate photo "A" as it appears on the Viewing screen, but photo "B" still lies on top of photo "A" in the slideshow bar at the bottom of the Viewing screen. Photo "B" also appears as an icon in the Event, while photo "A" doesn't appear at all, it continues to be unseen behind photo "B."
Please help. I have already lost several photos in the "Trash" while trying to resolve this problem.
Thanks,
d olsen

What version of iphoto? Is OS X 10.9.5 as you state correct for you OS? where is your iphoto library located? (if on an external drive what forat is it and how is it connected to your Mac?)
you can try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions, rebuild thumbnails and if necessary rebuild your database

How do you tell the difference between a genuine USB to Lightning cable? I spoke to two different operators at Apple Support. One said that it has Designed in California Made in China and the serial number on it, and the other operator said it didn't

How can you tell the difference between a genuine Apple lead and the cheap, or sometimes not so cheap imitations? I spoke with two people at Apple Support - one said that it has Designed in California Made in China and the serial number stamped on it, and the other said it didn't. Come on guys, how are we supposed to tell if you can't? I'd really like to know how to identify my lead amongst my daughter's gazillion fakes?

All my cables are genuine either with the devices or from Apple retail Store I have never found a serial number on any regardless of which length ,I have all three lengths
In fact they have nothing printed at all only a USB logo at relevant end

Can I have two different actions (Show and Hide) on one Btn? Captivate 6

Hi Everybody
I currently need to fix a Captivate project, there is one thing that I don't know how to do. So, I have this button, I am supposed to click this Btn, then the image disapper and text show up. So, there are two actions for this Btn. Once I click it, 1st action: the images disapper, second action: text show up. I am only able to make one action work.
Does anyone here know how to do it?
Thanks.

I have been blogging a lot about toggle buttons. Have a look at:
http://lilybiri.posterous.com/toggle-shape-buttons for Captivate 6, it has also a link to an older blog post.
I presented a webinar, focusing only on shape buttons, where the toggle is also explained:
http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2012/09/training-lilybiris-favourite-shapes-to-trigger-ad vanced-actions.html
As Rod points out, you cannot convert a standard to a conditional advanced action, but for complicated Conditional actions, I will often first test the sequence of statements in a standard action, before copying it to the THEN or ELSE part of the conditional action. But this is not really a very complicated condtional action that is needed. I even explained it recently in another thread, but cannot find it for the moment.
