What CDE parameters must be set for LabVIEW 6i Sun?

We are running LabVIEW 6i Sun using the Common Desktop Environment (CDE). We are unable to bring windows to front reliably, either through LabVIEW property nodes, the "Window" front panel pulldown menu, or by clicking an inactive window with the mouse. We suspect a CDE windowing parameter is not set properly. Any suggestions?

CDE is a window manager that runs on top of X. X is dumb and requires a Window Manager such as CDE (others include tvm, olvm, olwm, fvwm, and many more) - maybe you can try another window manager? I think Sun used to allow you to change the window manager, but I have not used it for a while.
Can you reproduce this problem on multiple machines with a fixed pattern that always produces the error? If so, we would look at it ([email protected]) if you get all the version numbers (Solaris, CDE, X, and so forth), attach the VI and any instructions to reproduce this issue. The more details the better, it makes it easier for us to reproduce.
thanks, hope it works out

What parameters must be set when AUTO_CONFIGURATION = NO

Hi,
I'm using ODI for CDC (Oracle 10g Consistent (LOGMINER)) and one of the notes says "in a production environment a DBA should set these parameters rather than letting ODI automatically set them". I would like to use AUTO_CONFIGURATION=NO so this means that the parameters must be set manually.
My question is: do one know which parameters must be set manually?
Thx very much for your help,
Cheers,
Nelson Branco

What is the best Compressor setting for best quality video playback on an iBook g4?

I know the iBook and G4's in general are very outdated today, but I need to ask anyways. I have some video projects in 720p and 1080p in which I have down converted to 480p and also exported to MPEG-2 for DVD (personal wedding videos and videos made for my clients using Final Cut Studio). Anything encoded at most resolutions using h264 won't play on my iBook. Even 480p.
I have about 20 hours of mixed video content that I need it in a format that is suitable for an iPhone 4 and an iBook 12" with a 1.2GHz G4, 1.25GB RAM and I added a 250 WD 5400 IDE hard disk (running 10.5.8 and 10.4.11 for Classic Mode). I know the iBook doesn't seem like the best tool for modern video playback, but I need to figure out which setting will play best with iPhone 4 and iBook so I don't need to make 2 local copies of each video for each device.
The iBook plays best with the original DVD output MPEG-2 file and playing back in QT Pro or VLC... but I already have 180 GB's of MPEG-2 files now and my little HD is almost full. I don't have enough room to convert all the iPhone 4 counterparts. If I use Compressor 3.5.3, what is the optimal setting for iBook and iPhone .m4v or .mp4 files that can play on both devices? So far 720x400-480 widescreen videos @ 29fps works great on my iPhone, Apple TV 2, and other computers but seems to murder my poor iBook if encoded with high profile (and still choppy on simple profiles). 640x480 (adding black matte bars to my videos) plays fine in MPEG-2 but drops frames or goes to black screen if I convert it to mp4 (and looks bad on the iPhone 4 because of the matte). But if I convert on any of the simple profiles, it looks terrible on my iPhone 4 and a blocky on the iBook.
This is the problem leading me to having 2 copies of each video and eating my hard disk space. What is the best video setting for both playback on the iBook and iPhone 4? Can the iBook playback H264 at all in decent resolutionsat all? I don't really want to have a 480p .m4v collection for the iPhone 4 and a MPEG-2 RAW collection just to play the same videos on the iBook.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Update: The iBook can play any 480p video and higher if I encode them with DivX and in AVI format. But of course this is not compatible with my iPhone 4. At least I can shrink my library now and get away from the full MPEG-2s. I don't get why I can't use Apple's h264 though. There has to be a setting I am missing. The sample Apple h264 videos from the days of Tiger worked flawlessly on my iBook when it was new so the CPU must be capable of decoding it. I really can't understand this.
Also, since I made my videos in English for my family, I had to create soft subtitles for my wife's Chinese family, and I can't get players like QT with perian or MPlayerX to sync them properly to an AVI encoded with DivX, they only sync well with the iPhone 4 m4v/mp4 formatted files I made. This is a real pickle.
So now I may need three or four copies of each video, LOL. I need to hardcode the subtitles if I want to use AVI to playback on older machines, and keep the mp4 file for the iDevices too, while keeping higher quality h264 videos for my American relatives...
If h264 is compatible with my iBook, what is the proper encoding settings? Must I dramatically lower the settings or frame rate? I can settle on 2 copies of each video that way. One iBook/G4/eMac compatible video that syncs correctly with my srt soft subs, and another version that works well with my iPhone 4 and iPad.
All in all, I will end up with more than 3 or 4 version of each video. On my late G5 dual core I have the full 720-1080p uncompressed master files. On my i5 iMac I have the h264 compressed versions for distribution, and lower versions for my iDevices. Now I need to keep either full MPEG-2 files for the iBook to play, or convert to older formats like DivX AVI for our family's legacy machines. I am running out of hard disk space quick now, LOL.
Is there an easier way?

What is the best export setting for video on blogger

What is the best export setting for video from premeire to blogger.com or blogspot.com

I have not been able to find the technical limits/specs for the site Blogger or blogspot.com. That is why I made the post here thinking some Adobe users may have experimented already and come up with good export settings for AVI DV video to a format optimized for Blogger.

Great question, Aerogoob.
The XY graph can be bound to a 1d array of "points", where each point is a cluster of two numerics (X and Y). To create a shared variable of this type, you can set the data type to "From Custom Control..." in the shared variable properties dialog. Of course, first you'll have to build the custom control of the correct type: array of cluster of two numerics.
If any of that doesn't make sense, please post back and we can walk you through it in more detail.
Also, just for completeness, the chart indicator can be bound to a scalar numeric or to an array of numerics. The graph indicator can only be bound to an array of numerics.

What are the must have apps for Snow Leopard

Just downgraded from Mavericks to Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Just can't stand the frequent beach balls. Was wondering what are the must have apps that are still being updated by the developers?

Most of the apps that comes with OSX 10.6 are not being updated anymore. It would be great if you could recommend apps that are still being updated for security, stability etc for the following:
1. Email
2. Browsing
3. Office Suite (like iWork)
4. To do List
5. Photo Editor
6. P2P / File Sharing
I am aware that there are reviews in the net for best apps, but I am interested to learn what people in this community have used personally and suggest.

HT4110 What is the best battery setting for the MacBook Pro 13 Retina display?

I want to know the best setting for the battery for the MacBook Pro 13 Retina display.

To add just a little
Keep it plugged in when near a socket so you keep the charging cycles down on your LiPo (lithium polymer) cells / battery, but not plugged in all the time. When not being used for several hours, turn it off.
And best "tip" is if its near a socket,...plug it in as long as you can (especially at home) since cycle count on the battery are the "miles that wear out the tires (battery)", however again, not plugged in all or most of the time.
http://www.apple.com/batteries/notebooks.html
"Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time."
General rule to remember of Lithium batteries is:
Never drain them LOW & dont always/often store them HIGH
While cycle count is commonly seen to be the “miles” on your Lithium Ion pack cell in your Macbook, which they are, this distinction is not a fine line at all, and it is a big misconception to “count charge cycles”
*A person who has, for example, 300 charge cycles on their battery and is recharging at say 50-60% remaining of a 100% charge has better battery usage and care than another person who has 300 charge cycles at say 15% remaining on a 100% charge.
DoD (depth of discharge) is far more important on the wear and tear on your Macbook battery than any mere charge cycle count. *There is no set “mile” or wear from a charge cycle in general OR in specific.    As such, contrary to popular conception, counting cycles is not conclusive whatsoever, rather the amount of deep DoD on an averaged scale of its use and charging conditions.
                          (as a very rough analogy would be 20,000 hard miles put on a car vs. 80,000 good miles being something similar)
*Contrary to some myths out there, there is protection circuitry in your Macbook and therefore you cannot overcharge it when plugged in and already fully charged
*However if you don’t plan on using it for a few hours, turn it OFF (plugged in or otherwise) ..*You don’t want your Macbook both always plugged in AND in sleep mode       (When portable devices are charging and in the on or sleep position, the current that is drawn through the device is called the parasitic load and will alter the dynamics of charge cycle. Battery manufacturers advise against parasitic loading because it induces mini-cycles.)
Keeping batteries connected to a charger ensures that periodic "top-ups" do very minor but continuous damage to individual cells, hence Apples recommendation above:   “Apple does not recommend leaving your portable plugged in all the time”, …this is because “Li-ion degrades fastest at high state-of-charge”.
                    This is also the same reason new Apple notebooks are packaged with 50% charges and not 100%.
LiPo (lithium polymer, same as in your Macbook) batteries do not need conditioning. However...
A lot of battery experts call the use of Lithium cells the "80% Rule" ...meaning use 80% of the charge or so, then recharge them for longer overall life.
Never let your Macbook go into shutdown and safe mode from loss of power, you can corrupt files that way, and the batteries do not like it.
The only quantified abuse seen to Lithium cells are instances when often the cells are repeatedly drained very low…. key word being "often"
Contrary to what some might say, Lithium batteries have an "ideal" break in period. First ten cycles or so, don't discharge down past 40% of the battery's capacity. Same way you don’t take a new car out and speed and rev the engine hard first 100 or so miles.
Proper treatment is still important. Just because LiPo batteries don’t need conditioning in general, does NOT mean they dont have an ideal use / recharge environment. Anything can be abused even if it doesn’t need conditioning.
From Apple on batteries:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1446
http://www.apple.com/batteries/
Storing your MacBook
If you are going to store your MacBook away for an extended period of time, keep it in a cool location (room temperature roughly 22° C or about 72° F). Make certain you have at least a 50% charge on the internal battery of your Macbook if you plan on storing it away for a few months; recharge your battery to 50% or so every six months roughly if being stored away. If you live in a humid environment, keep your Macbook stored in its zippered case to prevent infiltration of humidity on the internals of your Macbook which could lead to corrosion.
Considerations:
Your battery is subject to chemical aging even if not in use. A Lithium battery is aging as soon as its made, regardless.
In a perfect (although impractical) situation, your lithium battery is best idealized swinging back and forth between 20 and 85% SOC (state of charge) roughly.
Further still how you discharge the battery is far more important than how it is either charged or stored short term, and more important long term that cycle counts.
Ultimately counting charge cycles is of little importance. Abuse in discharging (foremost), charging, and storing the battery and how it affects battery chemistry is important and not the ‘odometer’ reading, or cycle counts on the battery.
Everything boils down to battery chemistry long term, and not an arbitrary number, or cycle count.
Keep your macbook plugged in when near a socket since in the near end of long-term life, this is beneficial to the battery.
Peace

What is the best proejct setting for editing h.264 video?

I have captured hours of VHS footage via an Elgato Video Capture device for Mac.   Captured video is in H.264 format.
Trying to edit the video in Adobe Premiere Elements 10, but it is being very fussy.   Takes a long time to import media. Once in and a few cuts are made, timeline drags and freezes repeatedly.   This was with a setting for HDV 720p 30.
Is my problem with the project setting? I hope so. But I also hope I can figure out what the proper setting should be.   Any thoughts?
Footage is decades old. Not the best quality, of course. I do want the final project to look as good as possible and be in Widescreen for uploading to Youtube.

Parameters to be set for Oracle repository

Hi ,
My Oracle DBA are in process of setting up a Oracle 10g DB as repository for business objects . I am not finding any docs which tells best practices for configuring oracle database like character set , nls parameters etc .
is there a set of document which I can give to my DBA or any best practice guide ?
Thanks
Manu

Hi Manu,
There is not much out there. Basically you have to set NLS_LANG to a UTF-8.
The CMS must have
User with the following privileges enabled:
u2022 create session
u2022 create table
u2022 create procedure
Alternatively, a user with the CONNECT and RESOURCE roles enabled, and the Admin Option setting disabled for both roles.
There is a installation guide that contains some info.

What precise requirements must certificates meet for small business router?

I have just purchased a RV180W small business VPN router and successfully
set it up as a router and site-to-site VPN gateway.
Very pleased with progress thus far I then attempted to export and self-sign a
certificate request carefully following steps in the administration guide.
On uploading the certificate produced (by Windows (8) makecert.exe) the
message "No trusted certificate found. Can't upload self certificate." is displayed.
I had no success despite numerous repetitions with several alternative settings
in the CSR.
Brevity of the instructions suggest it should be straightforward and flexible
enough to meet a wide range of certificate formats. There is no reference to
any specification.
Clearly this is not the case! Hence my question: What requirements must a
certificate (file) meet if it is to be successfully uploaded to a Cisco Small
Business Router?
Can I restate an appeal I make to every hardware and software producer I
have the misfortune of having to deal with: Please do not publish instructions
and guides that merely state the blindlingly obvious (e.g. Enter your name
in the box labeled name) and omit all details that actually are important
and relevant (e.g. Make sure that the name you enter is the same as that you
entered as the device owner or any other condition required by the software
that the user cannot be aware of and prevent something from working if not
met)!

Common features required would be single or dual WAN, VLAN support (at least 4),
With a minimum of 4 VLANs, the 860 is out of the question as this model can support only 2 VLANs. The 880 can support up to 8 VLANs. Now both the 860 and the 880 has a 4-port, FastEthernet, layer-2 switch. The 890 can support up to 12 VLANs and have an 8-port, FastEthernet, layer-2 switch at the back.
Now all the models mentioned, 860, 880 and 890, can support PoE. The 860, 880 and 890, can support 4-ports of PoE.
I've two vital questions for you. They are:
1. Are you planning to integrate your wireless with your router?
2. What is your bandwidth?
If you plan to integrate a wireless access point with your router, you need to be mighty careful with this. The reason is because of the potential location of the router in the premises. Most of the time, the router is located in the far corner of a property and inside a metal box/cabinet. For starters, the location is far (to very far) from the clients so the wireless signal is propagating to no one. Next, if it's inside a box or a cabinet the metal shell of the cabinet can disrupt the way wireless propagates.
This is the reason why I mentioned the PoE option. If the location is similar to what I've described, then it's better to get a router AND WAPs separate. This way you can move the WAP to wherever your clients might be.
Next is your bandwidth. What router to buy depends on what bandwidth you've got.

What is the best preferrence setting for Photoshop CS5 64 Bit Extended?

I upgraded my PC a few months back and I'm currently running the CS5 suites. A few weeks ago I started having issues with the CS5 suites freezing up and in some cases even crashing on me. I always run Illustrator, Photoshop, Indesign and bridge at the same time, as I'm constantly moving between program on any given project. What I'd like to know, is if there's an optimum setting to use in the preferences for Photoshop 64 Bit Extended to help it run more smoothly and efficiently, without the computer or program bogging down or crashing on me. Below is a list of the hardware I'm running, which I've been told is more than enough to run the CS5 suites. Any information would be greatly appreciated, as I'm starting to get frustrated with the performance.
Hardware & operating system:
- Windows 7 service pack 3
- EVGA X58 FTW3 motherboard
- i7 960 4-Core CPU
