What's the correct way to make QT4/KDE4 apps use my GTK theme?

I tried going to Computer -> System Settings -> Appearance and setting the widget style to GTK+ (instead of the default oxygen) but my computer crashes.  If I load xterm from kdm and try to run kwin for example, I get the following error message.
"QGtkStyle cannot be used together with the GTK_Qt engine."
and then it segfaults.
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Uni … d_GTK_apps 
This page says to use QGtkStyle, which comes bundled with QT 4.5.  I assume that is what I do with the previous procedure, but obviously that is giving me problems.  Any ideas?
Fyi, this just started happening tonight when I rebooted my computer.  I've had it set to GTK+ for a while and my KDE apps rendered with my GTK theme, but when I rebooted it segfaulted loading the desktop and I haven't been able to get it to work since.  Any ideas?

Maybe you should try typing "qtconfig" in the terminal. You can choose GTK+ then. Works for me. I didn't install anything special except the QT applications I use (including QTcreator), so I think "qtconfig" should be available when you have QT installed.
Also look out for a ".kde" directory (?) in your home folder (even when you don't use KDE it might be that you have it). It could be that you've got some contradictory settings in some configuration files that are read when QT apps are started. I'm not sure on this one, though.

    What is the easiest way to make a slide presentation DVD with music that can be played on a PC or DVD player?  I'm using a MacBook Pro since that's the computer that has all the photos (in an album) and music.  Thanks.

    I would suggest that you post this to the Adobe Encore>Menus & Buttons forum. What you want to do, if I read correctly, is pretty simple. There will probalby be links available to step you though it. I'll look for this there, and start gathering some links.

  • What's the correct way to handle changes in RDBMS/DBadapter?

    In my project all changes to the database are not done via Jdeveloper but via TOAD. This means DBadapters must be made aware of changes in the database.
    I tried to re-run the DBad.apter wizard twice (2 different services) - to make it aware of changes in the DB. Both times it failed. I think was after the import database tab. The next tab was just blank.
    So what's the correct way of reconile changes in the db backwards into Jdev?
    BTW, in the DBadapter wiz its not possible the remove a already imported table. How do I come across the situation where I want the DBadapter to point to af different table? - and possibly remove old references to another one - which might have been removed in the DB.
    As It is now - I have to re-work all my DBadapters, which is not very much fun...
    Rgds, Henrik

    Trust me, I hv done that umpteen nbr of times.
    I hate BA's coming to me with changes, for which I hv to modify the DB adapter.
    One big loop-hole with BPEL is if we try to modify the adapters/toplink, it doesnt tend to work properly.
    The manthra for such modifications is ... "recreate", which is definetely not a good practise.
    You may not like but gottu live with it, my friend.
    Pointing to a different table, I achieve it by doing a "Shift+Delete" to all the references of the old table in the BPEL project ... :|
    There isnt a specific provision in the wzd (I am not sure of the latest version, though).

  • What is the correct way to call older version of Adober Reader?

    What is the correct way to call older version of Adober Reader? Specifically version 8? Acrobar Reader 8 or Adober Reader 8? Is is necessary to include "Reader"? We are creating a form and are adding instructions that it works with version 8 and newer. We want to make sure it is worded correctly!
    Thanks!
    Danielle

    When you "Save as" and you select the "compatibility with" for older versions, the document will be compatible with whatever version you choose, be it 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or higher. If you want to "test it", you'll need a computer with Reader 8 installed, but I've never seen the "Save as" make something that was incompatible with the version it was saving for.

  • What's the correct way to set up an external style playing keyboard

    Hi
    what's the correct way to set up an external style playing keyboard?
    i want the keyboard to use the Logic's voices, and also to record the midi that is being inputed.
    I can do it on One Channel, but when I selct multiple channels, all the channels seem to play all of the input data!!!
    anybody??

    Check the formatting. It need to be formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled). This is also known as HFS+.
    FAT32 and NTFS formatting will not work with iMovie.
    If necessary, you can reformat using Disk Utility.
    Make one large partition. No need for multiple partitions.
    Do moves or copies to the external drive through iMovie as detailed in iMovie Help. If you move Events in the Finder, they may become unlinked from the projects that use them.

  • What is the correct way to create links to my website?

    Hi
    My site is finally finished and I am now looking to list it on various directories on the internet to generate links to my site.
    When my site opens in a browser it shows up as http://ateccomputerservices.co.uk
    I know this question has been asked many times on the internet but what is the correct way to post my link?
    I know I should be consistent and use www or not on every link but none of the articles tell me whether I should use http:// or not when linking.
    So for example, should I use...........
    http://ateccomputerservices.co.uk
    or
    http://www.ateccomputerservices.co.uk
    or
    ateccomputerservices.co.uk
    or
    www.ateccomputerservices.co.uk
    and should I put /index at the end?
    Once I've decided on which link to use should I redirect all the other addresses to the main one?
    I'm pretty new to web design so I need some advice from some seasoned experts
    Thanks for taking the time to read my questions!

    When you browse to http://ateccomputerservices.co.uk and to http://www.ateccomputerservices.co.uk do you get the same page?  Most hosts will automatically create a CNAME record for both 'www.example.tld' and 'example.tld' when the hosting account is created, but not all do.  If that second CNAME record is not created, then you must always use the "www" prefix.
    If the reference to your site is a text reference only, then you could just use 'www.ateccomputerservices.co.uk', but if it's a link you should always make the LINK part (the HTML href attribute's value part) as a fully qualified URL, i.e., 'http://www,ateccomputerservices.co.uk' or 'http://ateccomputerservices.co.uk':
    <p>Click <a href="http://ateccomputerservices.co.uk">here</a> to link to my site .</p>
    When a browser requests that domain from the server, the server will fetch the first file it finds with a 'default filename' (usually 'index.html' or 'index.php' or 'home.html' or...) and upload that to the browser, so there is no need to further specify the filename - the default is when no filename is given.
    Once I've decided on which link to use should I redirect all the other addresses to the main one?
    I'm not sure what you are asking here....

  • What is the correct way to add styling to drag-and-drop created calendars?

    I have a working instance of a rich client calendar. I generated the view with the required fields (start, stop, provider, ...), put it into the App Module, and dragged it onto a JSF page to create a calendar.
    Next I created an activityScope object in a class called CalendarBean (no inheritance)
    Class CalendarBean()
    private HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles> activityColorMap;
    +..+
    +public CalendarBean() {+
    super();
    activityColorMap = new HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles>();
    HashSet setEd = new HashSet<String>();
    HashSet setLen = new HashSet<String>();
    setEd.add("Work");
    setLen.add("Home");
    activityColorMap.put(setEd, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.ORANGE));
    activityColorMap.put(setLen, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.RED));
    +}+
    +}+
    Next, I linked this up as a backing bean and associated the ActivityStyles of CalendarBean to it:
    +#{backingBeanScope.calendarBean.activityColorMap}+
    I populated some records in the database with properties "Work" and "Ed', but they show default blue.
    As I understand it, I need to do something with the getTags() method of the underlying CalendarActivity class, but I'm not quite sure how to do that.
    Took a stab at creating a class, CalendarActivityBean, that extended CalendarActivity, and pointed all the CalendarActivity references I had to the new class, but it didn't seem to fire (in debug), and I got into trouble, when inserting records, with
    public void calendarActivityListener(CalendarActivityEvent calendarActivityEvent) {
    currActivity = (CalendarActivityBean) calendarActivityEvent.getCalendarActivity();
    being an illegal cast
    What is the correct way to add provider-based styling to drag-and-drop create calendars?
    Ed Schechter

    A colleague of mine was kind enough to solve this:
    The calendar has ActivityStyles property = #{calendarBean.activityStyles}
    CalendarBean looks something like this:
    package com.hub.appointmentscheduler.ui.schedule;
    import java.util.HashMap;
    import java.util.HashSet;
    import java.util.Set;
    import oracle.adf.view.rich.util.CalendarActivityRamp;
    import oracle.adf.view.rich.util.InstanceStyles;
    +public class CalendarBean {+
    private HashMap activityStyles;
    private String dummy;
    +public CalendarBean() {+
    +// Define colors+
    activityStyles = new HashMap<Set<String>, InstanceStyles>();
    HashSet setPending = new HashSet<String>();
    HashSet setArrived = new HashSet<String>();
    HashSet setApproved = new HashSet<String>();
    HashSet setCompleted = new HashSet<String>();
    setApproved.add("APPROVED");
    setPending.add("PENDING");
    setArrived.add("ARRIVED");
    setCompleted.add("COMPLETED");
    activityStyles.put(setApproved, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.GREEN));
    activityStyles.put(setPending, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.ORANGE));
    activityStyles.put(setArrived, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.PLUM));
    activityStyles.put(setCompleted, CalendarActivityRamp.getActivityRamp(CalendarActivityRamp.RampKey.LAVENDAR));
    +}+
    +public void setactivityStyles(HashMap activityStyles) {+
    this.activityStyles = activityStyles;
    +}+
    +public HashMap getactivityStyles() {+
    return activityStyles;
    +}+
    +}+
    Now, go into the Bindings tab on the calendar page, double click the calendar binding, and specify the column you've defined as the calendar's Provider in the Tags dropdown.
    Should show colors.

  • 1.4.2 - What is the correct way to format output in the java.io.PrintStream

    With Java 1.4.2:
    What is the correct way to format output in the java.io.PrintStream?
    The following is incorrect, even though it is still used in the The JavaTM Tutorial at: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/
    System.out.formatThis returns "cannot resolve the method 'format'"
    Any detailed suggestions or information is greatly appreciated.

    The following is incorrect, even though it is still
    used in the The JavaTM Tutorial at:
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/
    The whole format thing has been introduced in 1.5. The tutorial also states it's been "updated to 1.5.".
    That's all I've got to say for I don't know how you can format a PrintWriter, let alone a PrintStream, prior to 1.5. I'm not really sure there is any way. Any "legacy way", that is. There almost certainly are third-party API which achieve similar results.

  • What is the best way to make a DVD from iMovie

    What is the best way to make a DVD from iMovie?
    I am using iMovie 06 (Naturally) with iDVD 08. I have always used;
    iMovie 06, File > Share to iDVD 08. And got pretty good results.
    Some say the best way is to quit iMovie 06, open iDVD and import the movie from the Media button.
    I have tried both methods in the results look the same. I'm interested in getting the very best quality possible.

    You likely have one of the most expensive media converter boxes on the market today.
    But does it work well with most macs? (my guess is that it does). But more specifically can it "handshake" with an intel based mac? I personally haven't tried it.
    But you may want to read this for yourself if you haven't already:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1179361&tstart=2362
    Assuming it works then the best format is .dv which this unit will support apparently.

  • What is the best way to make a list of addresses for envelopes or labels?  Address book, numbers or pages?

    What is the best way to make a list of addresses for envelopes and labels?  Address book, Pages or Numbers?

    I liek your idea of having multiple images in a grid. I think
    that would be the best bet as you mentioned. Having one big picture
    would be hard to distinguish the sub-areas with mouse coordinates.
    I think checking the coordinates for the mouse would be very
    tedious because I would have to check for the left boundary, the
    right, top, and bottom for each sub-area!
    What do you mean by using button components and reskinning.
    Is this simply using buttons and changing the way they look? I'm
    just trying to save time and memory, because if I had a 10 by 10
    grid, thats a hundred buttons. Wouldn't that slow down the machine
    alot? And for that matter wouldn't having a grid of 10 by 10 images
    also by the same deal?
    Thanks for the input, I'm just trying to find the most
    efficient way to do it.

  • What is the correct way to upgrade 5.0.4 to 5.1 Universal?

    I just received Final Cut Studio Universal, and I have Final Cut Pro 5.0.4 installed what is the correct way to upgrade all the Final Cut Studio applications? Do install over or delete each application and then reinstall?
    As always thanks in advance for reading and replying to my Post,
    Sebastian

    WHEN I do it, I'm going to archive what's necessary and desirable to keep, erase my hard drive, reinstall Tiger, do the upgrades, then install 5.1 clean and do the upgrades.
    Might sound like overkill, but I really love a clean, fast machine and nothing does it better!

  • What's the best way to make a tribute DVD?

Can I make each section a separate slideshow in Iphoto with music and then just import that as a project into iMovie '09 and then string them together with short video clips in between?
    Also, I am having different people send me videos. What video formats are usable with iMovie '09?

    You might be better advised posting this in either the iPhoto or iMovie forum rather than here in iTunes. I think you are more likely to get relevant answers there as your question seems to be specifically about those programs.

  • What's the easiest way to make a password system? 10 Duke Points!

    Hello everyone,
    What's the easiest way to make a password system in java?
    I'd like to be able to:
    1) store passwords for about 6 people.
    2) have the people only interact with my program using my Eclipse console with no GUIs, pop-ups or Swing code.
    3) let the people have the ability to create/delete their own passwords and logins. (ideally)
    Having searched around the Internet, it seems that the options are to:
    A) have code that allows users create files, write to files, read from files.
    B) have code that serializes objects - this seems pretty difficult.
    C) have code that has a hash table of some kind - although I don't really know hash tables very well and am not sure if they can store data over time unless the program is always running (which is an option).
    D) use some sort of javadoc like PassWordCallback - this one looks the easiest as the code already seems to be there but I'm not really sure how to include this type of stuff in my code.
    E) have code that allows users to input their password, which I've given them on a piece of paper, and then allow the code to match it to a file - this wouldn't let the users create their own passwords though.
    Anyway, hope you can help!
    I have a 'Head First Java' book and a 'Java for Dummies' book if you know of anything directly useful in these books.

    Using GUIs and Swing is really easy, I have only been using Java for a week now and I have already made a simple application with events. First of all Swing is a package and you need to import it (as described in the documentation).
    When you click on the Swing package in the documentation to the second frame you'll see JFrame when you scroll down. JFrame's are the main windows on your screen. JFrame is a class therefore it needs to be instantiated (making an instance of that class so we can use it). After all, everything is based around classes.
    JFrame frame = new JFrame("Title here");
    Note: The "JFrame" before the frame vaiable name is the "data type" of the variable, really we're making an object type (I think its called) just like we'd do String frame if we wanted to make a frame variable that is of type String.
    As explained in the [JFrame section of the documentation|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/JFrame.html] in the "Constructor Summary" section is the different types of Construtors that are made available to us when we instantiate the JFrame class. One of the construtors available are:
    JFrame(String title)
    ... which is exactly what I did above in the brackets/parentheses (its telling us we can add a String title).
    Remember constructors do not have any return type or anything and is not a method, because it is the same name as the class and when we instantiate we call the constructor. And so the JFrame class has many constructors, one is for making a title for our JFrame and another is just instantiating without a title. If there wasn't the JFrame(String title) and just JFrame() constructor, we wouldn't be able to add a title as we made an instance of JFrame.
    So once we've made an instance of JFrame we have all the methods available (and all of the methods are shown in the API documentation).
    Hope you understand now :).Wow. Thanks a lot bastones_. I think Swing is just a bit beyond me at the moment and will require quite a bit of time for me to master. Is there not an easier way of making a password system? I think that A (see above) seems the easiest for me at the moment and D (see above) would be nice if I could just figure out how to use the javadoc.
