Window Handles Lost When Using Compiz-Fusion

Well, I decided to try using compiz-fusion with LXDE, and as soon as I started up fusion-icon, my window title bars are gone. Only way I can get them is by setting my window manager to OpenBox, but that means not being able to use compiz-fusion's eye candy. Anybody know what to do to fix this problem?

Got it figured out. Needed to enable "move windows" and "resize windows" as well. EVERYTHING is disabled by default

Hello. I have windows xp. When using Firefox as my home page, I get awful screen interference of lines verticle and horizontal. When I switch to Internet Explorer I don't get them. I want to keep Firefox as server.

Hello. I have windows xp. When using Firefox as my home page, I get awful screen interference of lines verticle and horizontal. When I switch to Internet Explorer I don't get them. I want to keep Firefox as server.

Here is something that you can try:
# Click on Tools and then click Options.
# Select the Advanced panel
# Select the General tab
# Uncheck Use hardware acceleration where available.
# Click File and then click Exit.
# Start Firefox normally.
Once you have followed those steps, you'll want to follow these as well and see if the lines are gone.
Click the Help menu and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.
Let me know if this has eliminated the problem.

Windows 8 freezing when using Firefox

When I'm using Firefox or Chrome browsers the whole entire PC is freezing.
Already posted my issue on the Microsoft Community forum, where you can read the details and the troubleshooting steps I tried:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-networking/windows-8-freezing-when-using-chrome-or-firefox/d6bad301-6c55-4469-96cb-0ec3d43e1113
Also I found another post here on the Mozilla forum, who had the same issue and he did not seem to solve it either: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/975278?esab=a&as=aaq
Please help me to fix this annoying issue! Thx!

Well, the MS site was a bust, wasn't it?
it would help to know how Firefox is configured.
Can you send me your troubleshooting information from the Firefox installation that's having issues? This is a good part in troubleshooting.

*Now, go back to your forum post and click inside the reply box. Press Ctrl+V to paste all the information you copied into the forum post.
Firefox has hardware acceleration set to "on" by default, but it's still young, which means some video cards or drivers might have problems with it. You can try to disable hardware acceleration to see if that alleviates your problems.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps for Firefox version 29.0 and above:
*Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select Options for Windows or Preferences on Mac or Linux. For Firefox 28.0 and previous versions, click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Note that if this issue happens in both Chrome and Firefox that it may be a system issue and not a Firefox related issue,

Gtk-window-decorator missing after installing Compiz-Fusion

I just installed ArchLinux and wanted to try out Compiz-Fusion in Gnome. I installed it using the Compiz-Fusion wiki's instructions. Everything works fine, except that I can't use the gtk-window-decorator. After some research I found out that this file is missing. I checked out the Compiz-Fusion site, and it seems it ought to come with Compiz-Fusion. I checked in Linux Mint and found it there, so obviously it's missing in my ArchLinux box.
Can someone please veryfy if it should be part of the Compiz-Fusion packages?

See the second posting.
Oups! I searched for 'gtk-window-decorator'. It could be nice to mention these separate packages on the wiki Compiz-Fusion page. There are probably many out there looking for them.
Thanks!

Why is Windows 7 freezing when using Firefox?

-Has been happening for months now with many attempts to pinpoint cause. Have come to the conclusion that it is Firefox but don't understand why.
-When using Firefox, my entire PC, not just Firefox, will freeze. Sometimes it happens within the first 5min of using Firefox, other times it could happen an hour into a session. A hard restart is the only way to get back to my desktop as I have waited an hour before after a freeze and nothing happens. Mouse pointer won't move, nothing.
-Initially thought it was a hardware issue or an anti-virus issue.
-Reinstalled windows on three different hard drives that all pass the disk check. Still happens
-Installed windows 8 to see if that would fix the problem. Nope, does the same thing on Windows 8.
-Ran Memtest 86+ for 14 hours one night to see if it was my memory. Nope, zero memory errors found
-To be sure I even tried only using one stick of ram in my PC at a time to see if any of the sticks were bad. Nope, it froze with every stick
-Tried changing my anti-virus. It froze with every single one, AVG Free, Avast Free, Microsoft Security Essentials.
-I figured out that my PC only freezes when I am browsing the web in firefox. If I use chrome or Internet explorer, it doesn't happen. These total PC freezes only happen when I am using firefox.
-My only add on/plug in that I am using is Adblock plus besides the default ones that come with Firefox.
-My firefox is up to date, I have reset it and reinstalled it [while only adding Ad Block +] and this still does not fix the problem
-In the windows event log the only thing that happens every time my PC freezes is the Error "Session "Microsoft Security Client OOBE" stopped due to the following error: 0xC000000D", why this would only affect Firefox, I don't know.
-I would like to figure out the cause of this because I would really like to use Firefox again.

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

Firefox opens new window on taskbar when using yahoo as the browser

when i use yahoo as the browser, a new window opens on the taskbar when web results are listed. also if I open yahoo mail a new window opens when i read messages. this things only happen when using yahoo. only sites such as google dont have this issue.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3

Hello Frank.
First of all, take a look at this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_browser It will help you understand what the browser really is.
Now, as for your issue, if I understand it correctly, the only way to prevent this from happening (that I know of) is to go into Tools > Options > Tabs and select "Open links that open in a new window in:" as "New Tab".
Of course, you can always drag and drop tabs from window to window, no problem.

When will compiz fusion go into the official repositories?

The next release of compiz fusion will be stable. Will it go into the repositories then? Or will it have to wait longer? I am using KDE so the unofficial compiz fusion repo is out of the question. I'm guessing they'll be all the packages available, including the one which doesn't require gconf. I don't know how to edit the PKGBUILDs in the AUR to integrate into KDE. Could someone help me with that as well?

Sounds like your home PC is using POP to access your mail server, and downloading the message (not leaving a copy on the mail server) ... You might find it better to use IMAP, if possible - with an IMAP server you can access your mail on either your home computer or your Touch, messages read on either device will show as read on the other, and sent mail is also sync'd between devices. All around, a MUCH more elegant solution than using POP3.

First words are lost when using Bluetooth voice de...

This happens with any Nokia Nxx or Exx when used with bluetooth HF device, like Nokia HF-300. Is there any solution to this problem? In practice you can hardly use any navigation with bluetooth voice. The delay itself is not a problem but the phone should wait 0.x seconds after opening the line to the HF device. It would be nice if you could configure this kind of delay to the phone.

Is this the case when listening to the radio or music from the phone?
I'd expect it to pick everything up when listening to music from the phone as it's on the same channel (A2DP).
But if you're getting all the nav guidance with a radio mute then that is a huge step forward.
Usually the problem occurs when there is a delay for the mute of the radio followed by the streaming over mono channel.

Internet connection lost when using Windows with Parallels 5

A couple of months ago I installed Parallels 5 and Windows 7 thinking I'd need to use it some day and of course I went to use Windows on my MacBook Pro today only to find that I can't connect to the internet via Windows. It keeps telling me that I need to install a network adapter. I'm using Airport to connect me to a Netgear wireless router which works fine in Mac OS X. I thought perhaps connecting to the router directly with an ethernet cable might work - it didn't. I've also had a quick play under the DEVICES menu in Parallels (taking a guess at some settings, with no luck).
I would appreciate any suggestions - thanks in advance

Did you install the Parallels Tools package? It includes drivers that link the Windows virtual machine to OS X.
That is to say, there should be a command in one of the Parallels Desktop menus (have Parallels but not version 5) that installs this package into the VM. You may need to REinstall if it didn't take the first time.

Handling parameters when using BI Server as a Data Source

Hi,
Following an upgrade of our BI Publisher 10g content to 11g I've come across a syntax issue with 11g when it comes to the handling of parameters in BI Server Data Sets.
Under 10g, the documentation stated the following:
+"If your data source is the Oracle BI Server, use the following macro to handle the null:+
+{$ if ${sYear}='*'$}+
+{$elsif ${sYear}='2000' $}+
+where Year = :sYear+
+{$else $}+
+where Year = :sYear+
+{$endif$} "+
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e12187/T518230T518233.htm
Under 11g it does not seem to allow the use of macros defined in Data Sets and raises the following error when saving the query:
+"java.io.IOException: prepare query failed[nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 27002] Near <$>: Syntax error [nQSError: 26012] ."+
If macros are no longer supported, what is the best approach to handle null value parameters (caused by all choices / nothing being selected)
as they need to be defined in the Data Set WHERE CLAUSE?
I've tried a rather clunky CASE WHEN statement which handles string parameters fine, but dates are another thing as null values are returned as 'null' text which causes TYPE mismatch errors.
Hopefully there is an elegant way to handle this in 11g (the 10g macros were very straight forward when dealing with BI Server)
Many Thanks

If what you are saying is true then I would highly recommend open a ticket with Oracle Support.
They should provide and alternative for handling NULLS in 11g.
regards
Jorge

Possiblely a bug - windows update error when using NAT between Hyper-V Virtual Ethernet Adapter

I'm using SCVMM managing my Hyper-V machine.
I have three physical network adapter on my hyper-v host as below:
I'm using SCVMM 2012 SP1 to create two virtual network adapter base on each Realtek controller, Bridge the traffic from the physical adapter, NAT the traffic from the internal virtual adapter to the internet facing virtual adater.
I can access the internet but i got the windows update error as below
If i NAT the internal virtual adapter traffic to the WIFI physical internal facing adapter, windows update is fine.
I'm using my hyper-v server windows NAT feature.
I did google a round, it looks like something wrong when you NAT the two virtual network adatper..
if anyone here can help, that's would be much appreciated.

Windows 7 crashes when using Lightroom and Photoshop

I am trying to determine the cause of random crashes (bsod) when I run Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS5 (either individually or both at the same time) on my Windows 7 64-bit PC. I'm begining to think the crashes might be related to interactions between LR4, CS5, and Windows 7 Services. Does anyone know of a list of Windows 7 64-bit Services that are used by LR4 and CS5?

Applications can't cause BSOD's. Crash, yes, but not BSOD. The real cause is usually faulty or incompatible hardware (most likely RAM), or buggy drivers (most likely video card).
Photoshop puts a lot of stress on your computer, so any latent problems are likely to turn up. Lightroom I believe less so; but still it can push the wrong buttons.
I'd start by downloading an updated video driver, and next test RAM by removing or replacing one stick at a time.

Window order question when using Full screen

Hello all,
This is my first time posting.. Probably many more to come.. But this is probably a really easy question. I am really new to Cocoa and am picking it up slowly one step at a time.
I am making an application where I need a full screen animation to work with. I have been able to get that up and running and have been able to use a keyboard event to toggle the window to go to full screen and back to window size. However, once I go from the window (which when the app starts is window size) to full screen then back to window I cannot go back into full screen without reselecting that window. What can I do to get it so it will go back and forth all day without having to physically click the window? I have tried using the [self becomeFirstResponder] after it exits full screen and didn't help. I am using the [self enterFullScreenMode:[NSScreen mainScreen] withOptions:nil]. This will be on a MacMini installed kind of like a kiosk so it won't have a keyboard and mouse at all times.. And I might be only using the apple remote or something like that for control.
Thanks for your help!!

Hi speluttiero!
I've got the exact same problem, with MacBook Pro Core i5. 64 bit Windows 7 in Boot Camp.
It even crashes the whole Windows every now and then when playing flash full screen.. screen goes blank, some strage noise from speakers, and then requires reboot. Anyone any idea what's the problem?
