[XFCE] Anybody want to help me make a user switching patch?

I love my XFCE desktop, but I hate not being able to switch users or lock the screen (I use LightDM). I Googled for a while now, and there doesn't seem to be any solution to this problem except for using a GDM-only applet that looks quite out of place (and can't lock the screen).
Since there isn't a way to do fast user switching, does anyone have any information about hacking with the logout application? If XFCE had multi-user capabilities, it would be my perfect lightweight DE.
Anyone up for this?

So... after you executed xscreensaver-command -lock, how do you switch users? With gdmflexiserver?
Yes, sorry.  Details:  Compiling with the "--with-login-manager" flag will make a button called "New Login" that points to /usr/bin/gdmflexiserver to allow user switching if the using gdm as the greeter. This would be value added for folks using xfce4, lxde, openbox, etc. since gnome-screensaver does not provide functionality on non-gnome systems with version 3 (depends on gnome-session).

  • Media encoder hates me...Anybody want to help? I need this file exported within 5 hours.

    So about a month ago I reinstalled media encoder because it decided that it doesn't want to work anymore and would simply give me an error telling me it couldn't open everytime I'd try to use it.
    Now I'm trying to export a premiere file and when I click start que it gives me a warning sign that says "Could not read from source, please check if it has been moved or deleted"
    The only time I moved a I was working with was moving the raw footage from my desktop to a folder on my desktop with the rest of the files I'm using in it.
    When I check the error log file everything appears to be correctly located, I also made sure that the temporary file it creates to export is where it says it is...so I don't know why it's giving me this message.
    I really don't know what to do, I"m about to just delete premiere and media encoder and reinstall both of them soon, in hopes that magically they will work...
    I'm using the mac version too if that makes a difference.

    "Could not read from source, please check if it has been moved or deleted"
    You admitted to having moved your files from the desktop to a folder on the desktop. That could well be your problem.
    You need to get PR to recognize the new location of your files. When you start your project, PR asks for the new location. You answer that question, the rest of your files will automatically be located. Then save your project, exit and restart PR. It should now automatically find all your files. If you have done this, is your problem solved? If not, answer the 16 questions Eddie pointed you to.

  • Anybody want to help me, please...

    First of all, I'm not sure about the constant values. I wasn't sure so I just guessed. Are they totally wrong, or does it not matter?
    The part that I'm confused about is the end where it says "endingTotalTime", in the assignment it says we're supposed to use / and % with 60 minutes per hour. I'm not really sure how to use the % in the program.
    public static void main(String[] args) {
         //Declare constant values
         int TimeInHours = 1;
         int TimeInMinutes = 60;
         //Declare variables used to store user input
         String userInput;
         int startInHours;
         int startInMinutes;
         int durationInHours;
         int durationInMinutes;
         //Get the start time in hours from the user
         System.out.print("Enter the starting time in hours: ");
         userInput = SimpleIO.readLine();
         TimeInHours = Integer.parseInt(userInput);
         //Get the start time in minutes from the user
         System.out.print("Enter the starting time in minutes: ");
         userInput = SimpleIO.readLine();
         TimeInMinutes = Integer.parseInt(userInput);
         //Get the duration time in total hours from the user
         System.out.print("Enter the duration time in hours: ");
         userInput = SimpleIO.readLine();
         durationInHours = Integer.parseInt(userInput);
         //Get the duration time in total minutes from the user
         System.out.print("Enter the duration time in minutes: ");
         userInput = SimpleIO.readLine();
         durationInMinutes = Integer.parseInt(userInput);
         //Declare variables used for calculations
         int endingTotalTime;
         int endingHours;
         int endingMinutes;
         //Calculate the total time
         endingTotalTime =

    public static void main(String[] args) {
    //Declare constant values
    int TimeInHours = 1;
    int TimeInMinutes = 60;
    //Declare variables used to store user input
    String userInput;
    int startInHours;
    int startInMinutes;
    int durationInMinutes;
    //Get the start time in hours from the user
    System.out.print("Enter the starting time in hours: ");
    userInput = SimpleIO.readLine();
    TimeInHours = Integer.parseInt(userInput);
    //Get the start time in minutes from the user
    System.out.print("Enter the starting time in minutes: ");
    userInput = SimpleIO.readLine();
    TimeInMinutes = Integer.parseInt(userInput);
    //Get the duration time in total minutes from the user
    System.out.print("Enter the duration time in minutes: ");
    userInput = SimpleIO.readLine();
    durationInMinutes = Integer.parseInt(userInput);
    //Declare variables used for calculations
    int endingTotalTime;
    int endingHours;
    int endingMinutes;
    //Calculate the total time
    endingTotalTime = (startInHours * 60) + startInMinutes + durationInMinutes;
    endingHours = endingTotalTime / 60;
    Ok, that's everything I have so far. Now I'm supposed to calculate endingHours and endingMinutes, but didn't I technically already solve for endingHours up there. ^^
    On the line that says endingHours = endingTotalTime / 60???

  • The past few days every time I open firefox I get the windows' "do you want this program to make changes to your computer..."

    Hello
    I would be so grateful to know how to fix t his, because it's really getting on my nerves.
    I have windows 7 pro 64 bit. I mostly always use firefox. Whenever i opened a new browser, I never got hit with the windows badge and "Do you want this program to make changes to your computer...." or something to that effect. YOu who have windows 7 know what I mean. Of course I click yes, but I NEVER had to do this before. I don't know what changed, what might have happened. I had to have help with some software unrelated to firefox and someone had remote work on my notebook, but he should not have changed browser settings. It is really irritating me to now end to always open the browser now and have to hear that annoying thing and the badge.
    My other browsers IE and chrome do not do this.
    How can I fix this? It was never the case before for years.
    thanks I am grateful in advance. I can't use this browser if this s going to happen it gets on my nerves.

    You're welcome.

  • Can anybody out there help shed some light on why no audio output using varispeed tempo only

    Can anybody out there help shed some light on why no audio output using varispeed tempo only?
    I am using Logic Pro 9 and finding no problems using the tempo and pitch option but when I just want to vari the tempo only I loose all output.
    This includes no audio meter activity on channells.

    Another worthwhile time/pitch related product is from Prosoniq. The version of Nuendo (not the latest) the University uses ships with the MPEX algorithm, which is related to to their flagship product.
    http://www.prosoniq.com/www/TimeFactory_II.html
    I've used it a bit to create the double-time/+1 octave  Les Paul & Mary Ford guitar sound for a class demo demo and thought it did a very good job.
    Yes, there is a Demo.

    No. That's not what I said. You can get an out of warranty replacement, which will be exactly the same model, color, and will be locked in exactly the same way the original is. If you want an iPhone 5, get the 4S replaced, sell it, and use the money to put toward a new phone.

  • My new iphone 4 problems and plzzzzzz i want your help

    I just bought iphone 4g and after using it for some time i became very sad as it has alot of problems that i want your help to solve them..first u should know that my iphone came with ios 4.2.1 and locked to vodafone and my 1st problem is when i connect iphone via wifi to my TP Link access point which is connected to Linksys router ,i can surf net for some time but suddenly iphone lose its net connection and then all web broswsers and even App store and itunes applications become not able to open any net page and all of them say that there is no internet connection although iphone is connected very well to acess point and iphone say that wifi signal strength is excellent and internet at this time is working very very well in other devices via wifi also like my laptop and nokia n95 phone and ar this time i have to switch wifi off in iphone and switch it on again to make it able to use wifi internet connection again and my 2nd problem is with bluetooth as when i try to connect iphone to bluetooth headset ,iphone keep saying Searching but it can not find any bluetooth device so i am very sorry for this long topic but as u see this device is full off bugs :((
    Message was edited by: tad88

    First the bluetooth issue. Your headset or other bluetooth device needs to be 'discoverable'. You may need to press a sequence of buttons on the device to get it into this mode. If it has ever been paired to anything, it is probably not discoverable by default. This is normal. Consult the manual for your headset. Otherwise any yahoo on the street could connect to your headset.
    As for the WiFi issue, I would check with the access point vendor to see if there is a firmware upgrade available. If my search results were accurate, this is a "Super G" access point, which means its implementation of 802.11G is somewhat non standard.
    If a firmware update doesn't fix it, see if you can disable the 'Super G' feature and see how it works on 802.11G. Failing that, throttle it down to 802.11B as a test.
    It's most likely a compatibility problem with your specific wireless access point.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the forum! You'll find that there are many qualified people (such as Tubby) willing to help you. Will you do what you can to help them? In order to simplify the query you posted,someone will first have to understand what it does, what the tables that it uses are like, and what tools you have to work with (that is, what version of Oracle, and any other software you are using). To actually test their ideas, people will need versions of your tables.
    Many people, if they spent enough time, might be able to figure out roughly what you are doing, make some tables themselves and test a solution. You can help with all of that. I assume you already know what the appliction is, and what this particular query is supposed to do: you don't have to figure out any of that, you just have to say it. You know what all your tables are, what the datatypes of all the columns are, and what kinds of data are in the tables: you don't have to guess at any of that.
    Describe what you're doing. Think about it: how do we know that
    SELECT  NULL
    FROM    dual;doesn't do what you want?
    Post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for a little sample data.
    Post the results that this query is supposed to produce from those results. (Is it producing the right output now? Then it should be easy to post the correct results.)
    Describe, as well as you can, how the present query is doing it.
    Format your existing code, so it's easy to see what the different branches of the UNION are, and what the main clauses are in each one.
    When posting formatted text (code or results) type these 6 characters
    \(all small letters, inside curly brackets) before and after each formatted section, to keep this site from compressing the spaces.
    Say what versions of Oracle (e.g. 10.2.0.3.0) and any other relevant software you are using.
    I know it's a lot of work, but it really helps. You can do it as well (probably better) than anyone else, and if you're unwilling to do it, why should anyone else be willing?

    Two possibilities, one is you should close apps on the iPad, the other is your internet speed is not able to handle the demands of a high speed device.
    To close apps:   Double click home button, swipe up to close the apps.
    To solve internet problem, contact your provider.   Basic internet is not enough for video games and movies.   Your router may be old and slow.

    You can't "accidentally" put a passcode on any iPhone...its a multi-step process. Further, restoring an iPhone will remove the passcode, as the passcode is not included in an iPhone backup.
    Are you sure you're talking about the phone passcode & not something else...like the "Restrictions" passcode?
