What's new in kde4.4?
As a long time kde user I was bewildered by some of the things that hit me when I fired up kde4.4.
To kick the changes off I was impressed by the new netbook setup which one call up seemlessly and which relies on the new search and launch activity:
systemsettings - desktop - workspace - form factor: netbook
But there are plenty of other things that I have seen in this forum but have no idea how to implement yet - among them tabbing applications! So, if you have found something cool, tell us how to do it and post a screenshot (best use http://omploader.org/)
Usability - love it. Nothing better than KDE. I've really missed the immense configurability and it looks like there is more to play with and make good use of in 4.4 than ever. Dolphin remains my favourite filemanager. It does everything better. Akonadi looks more usable now too. I really like the opposite philosophy they've taken to cloud computing and taking activities that are in the cloud and integrating it into the DE. Thumbs up for the social desktop.
Polish - The best. So many cool details woven into the DE since the early days of 4.1. I also love the developments made on bespin since I last updated it (stopped doing that when kde-base became a dependency and I wasn't using it), new icon sets from kde-look are amazing and that's besides the fact that I really like what they've done with the default oxygen-air setup. A thing of beauty. Think it can win over a lot of non-linux users to look at a kde box, even without modification.
Stability - I am not impressed. Two random dolphin crashes, okular crashed, krunner stopped working when I activated desktop effects and chromium simply disappeared from the menu after I added the launcher to the panel. All this in the first hour. Still these are details I imagine will be ironed out with the next bugfix release.
Speed - This is where I am the big loser. I've grown accustomed to the near instant responsiveness of my xfce+compiz setup by now and I think I will just have to come to terms with the fact that KDE is not designed for proper use with a 1.73 Ghz celeron processor as my laptop has.
By now, I'm afraid responsiveness is a stronger feature for me than the aforemented. I will toy with it a bit more before going back to the poorer world of gtk, but I do wish it could be more responsive. Last time I tried Gnome, it fared quite a bit better in this department and if they had been evenly matched, I think the plusses might outweigh the lag for me to stay put (I realise curit would be nice if they had been more evebrent gnome can not compete with the features of kde 4, but still).
Still, I genuinely do believe that KDE 4 is currently the most advanced and shiny DE out there on any platform. If I had a more powerful machine I would use it without question. It seems to be getting better and better.

I didn't see anything new.
Think of Firefox 5.0 as both a security update in place of 4.0.2 and having had some work done also, something that minor releases generally do not get.

Anyone know what is new in iTunes 6.0.3.5?
iTunes 6.0.3.5 came out today (with no relesae notes).
Anyone here know what's new in it?
Fujitsu Lifebook P-2120 Windows XPJust installed and had a quick look, nothing obviously different. However it seemd that updating iPod was faster (with 6.0.2 it seemed to pause while copying songs and take longer), also my 5G 30GB iPod moved past "do not disconnect" considerably faster after clicking Eject iPod.
Using version 1.1 of the iPod software and have been since it was released so the improvement seems to be brought about by 6.0.3.5

What is new in Enhancement Package 2 and 3
Hi all,
The [ERP Solution Browser|http://solutionbrowser.erp.sap.fmpmedia.com/] is an excellent tool to find out, what's new. However I did not find any means to get a list of new features in ERP 6.0 enhancement packages 2 and 3. Any hint (especially what's new in HCM) is welcome!
Regards
MatthiasHello Matthias,
check out Service Marketplace, alias ERP-EhP to find out what's being delivered as part of an Enhancement Package:
http://service.sap.com/erp-ehp (logon required).
Basically, it provides the following:
link to SAP Enhancement Package Infocenter to understand the content based on functional domain, e.g. HCM.
documentation on
- EhP concept and strategy
- overview presentation SAP ERP EhP 2 and 3
- detailed presentation SAP ERP EhP 2 and 3
- preview SAP ERP EhP4
- how to implement EhP ("Must know guide for IT professionals")
- test case templates
- links to other useful resources (e.g. ERP solution map, media library, functional areas)
Hope this helps! -
I would appreciate if any of you could provide me with links to relevant documents or information on what is new for BI 7.0..
One of my main intentions is finding out information on the changes in Process Change Monitoring. As you all know the issue with the current tools in BW(3.5) is that the if the chain doesn't start. Well is hard to find out promptly, and similar situation when activations hang ..... I was thinking in creating a custom tool, but I was told that BW 7.0 do provide tools to better monitor chains. Well if anyone has information on this I would appreciate .
Thank you

can u please tell me what is new in ECC 6.0 .what is the difference between this and older version.
a ppt or pdf will be helpfulHi,
ECC 5.0 is based on WAS 6.40 and ECC 6.0 is based on WAS 7.00.
From functional point of view there are some minor differences, as the core functionalities are not changed a lot. However there is Industrial Solutions intergarated to ECC 6.0 by default.
From ABAP point of view you have the following new elements/components:
- New ABAP editor /meanwhile it's available via downport for lower releases as well/
- ABAP WebDynpro
- Enhancement framework
- Regular experssion support
Also check this link for functionality differences.

Hi there. If you are talking about 1.1.1 then I think that just fixed the publishing error problems.
If you mean the version before....maybe someone else can jump in and answer that one.

What's new/fixed in version 7.1?
Subject line says it all. Thanks.
From the iTunes 7.1 downloads page:

Keeps coming up with "What's New" page everytime I open Firefox.
Everytime I open Firefox (5) it keeps checking whether my add-ons would work with it and then opens the "What's New" page. It's starting to get really irritating.
Is there a way to stop it from doing this?I suspect a bad add-on. Since add-ons often are installed externally to Firefox, I suggest starting here:
Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
Then, in Firefox, open the '''Add-ons page''' using either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable (or Remove, if possible) unrecognized and unwanted extensions.
Often a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Finally, you can "mop up" remaining issues with the scanning/cleaning tools suggested in this support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
Does that clear it up?
