XFCE startup lags with one user only due to OPENOFFICE [NOT-SOLVED]

For some reason, when I start xfce4 with my only non-root user, the super key is "stuck" rendering several keys on the keyboard unusable because I have them bound as shortcuts.
i'm dual booting windows and the keyboard is functioning fine when I boot there, and strangely enough logging out and back in as root is also normal.
the only things i've down since the last time it was working was install openoffice, which I havent completely gotten to work yet (it freezes when I try to close it, anybody know why? I get some ICE connection refused error). and gaim.
any ideas? other than deleting the user and re-doing everything.. where can i look?
I deleted the user completely and remade a new user with the same name... the super key "stuck" problem is gone but for some reason the other problems remain.
1) xfce takes 5 times longer to load than it does for root
2) xfapplet won't load properly, but does for root
among others.. where can I look to solve these problems? im guessing I have to remove or edit the files associated with that account name but how? sorry still learning...

Every time I have heard of something that takes ages to load it's because the computer is missing the line
127.0.0.1               localhost.localhost       localhost
in /etc/hosts, but I think it was only a Gnome problem

  • Ichat slowly crashes after two minutes or so with one user only

    I've been using ichat for years with my parents and brother, My brother has an older imac and we can chat just fine. Recently ichat has not been working with my parents mini mac, although it used to quite well. Chat starts off fine and slowly deteriorates, after two minutes or so the video and audio become so bad it's not worth continuing. We both have the same versions of OS 10 and ichat and I am at a loss to explain the trouble. If we watch the connection doctor as we chat, my signal slowly drops till it can't carry the load. When I call my brother, no loss of signal. I am using airport but when I connect the cable directly there is no change, signal strength still falls off. As far as we know, no hardware or software changes have been made to either system. I recently upgraded my internet connection speed to try and beat the problem but it didn't resolve the issue. We did learn that if we both make our video windows as small as possible, we can talk on the deteriorated signal. Any ideas?

    Hi
    First have you and your parents set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps
    In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to 500
    Restart iChat.

  • Error accessing the UWL only with one user

    Hi,
    We have a problem only with one user, when the user access the UWL get the following error:
    Runtime error in the portal
    Exception in processing request, send the ID of exception to your portal ADMINISTRATION
    ID exception 10:54_21/10/11_0037_8766350
    The other user does not have problems accessing the mailbox.
    The user is assigned the role of the mailbox correctly.
    Any idea what may be the problem?
    Thanks and regards

    Hello,
    The best way to see what these issues are is to check the trace for when the run time error has occured:
    Log on to the portal, recreate the runtime error.  Then follow:
    1596214 How to find the latest default trace from right after
    reproducing an issue.  Please ensure that you have reproduced the
    issue with a user that is experiencing the issue that you have reported.  When you find the most recent default trace file, copy and paste the numbers from the portal screen and do a ctrl + F with the trace file opened and paste in the runtime error.  Now you should be able to see what is causing this issue.
    Then when you get this information, please paste or attach the file here that contains the runtime error for the user.  From this we should be able to figure out why the user is getting this.
    Also as an admin user, try clearing this users personalizations on the Universal Worklist first.
    Please clear all personalizations with the affected user and retest.
    Here is the help link to show you how to clear the personalizations:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/29
    /441f6f09364bcab17f94490555bee4/content.htm
    If clearing the personalizations does not help this user, please attach the trace file showing the runtime error.

    Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC.

  • I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

    I have just purchased a new macbook and need to sync my iphone with itunes, i understand that you can only sync your phone with one itunes account. I do not want to wipe my iphone when syncing with this new itunes account. Any advice welcome

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.

  • Problem opening pdf's with one user

    Hello,
    We deployed adobe reader X on a terminal server 2008 with about 10 users, which login directly via an rdp session (no broker).
    With one user, we have the problem that when she tries to open a pdf (either directly, in a browser, from outlook, whichever),
    then the adobe reader program appears in the taskbar and then the program is gone. We tried the following things
    - Kill the adobe reader process
    - Repair adobe reader using the software install tool
    - Downgrade to adobe reader 9.4.1 by uninstalling X and installing 9.4.1 (a version which is used extensively without problems at another customer)
    - Delete the terminal server roaming profile and create a new one in active directory on the domain controller.
    Other users have no problem with this and a testuser with the same rights (copy function in AD) does not have this issue.
    Every time we apply one of the above solutions, it works for 15 minutes and then we are back to the original symptoms.
    The adobe reader process seems to be still active after you close a document and after it stops working.
    Does anyone have a clue on how to fix this permanently?

    This is a problem (bug) with the built-in PDF Viewer (pdfjs) that currently doesn't handle this link properly.

  • Data Uploads done with one User Id not visible to other users in SPM

    Hi,
    Data uploads were successfully carried out by one of the SPM users. However, other users (with different user id) are not able to see anything in the Data Upload Summary screen.
    Is there a restriction on the visibility of Data Upload Summary for data uploads carried out with one User id to other users in SPM? A similar behaviour is observed for other screens within the Data upload workbench.
    Incase this is not the expected behaviour, it would be great if you could please provide pointers to possible reasons for this.
    Just for your information, all users have been granted same privileges in the SPM application.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Ashish Sharma

    Hi Ashish,
    No this is not the expected behavior. We have seen this issue for other customers in the past but the reason has always turned out to be role related.
    Can you ensure that the required SPM roles are assigned to the user who do not see the DM data both in ABAP as well as portal.
    Thanks,
    Divyesh

  • Garageband unexpectedly quits on launch with one user

    Strange happenings with Garageband since upgrading to Lion (Lion upgrade might be a co-incidence). Garageband works fine with one user but doesn't launch with another user - it unexpectedly quits every time on launch. Have tried repairing permissions and re-installing Garageband. Not sure what else to do. I can't find any Garageband prefs to dump. I guess something in this user's setup is conflicting, But what? Any ideas?

    I think you need to reinstall the OS to fix that one.

  • Data should be processed with one package only

    Hello,
    I need to load data from ods1 to ods2.
    The logic if the transformation requires that data should be processed with one package only. Otherwise the result will be misleading.
    I can increase the package size up to 1 mln but its not the best solution as actual numbers of records is unknown.
    What would you recommend?
    thanks

    Hi,
    We had a similar requirement for one of the projects, where data for the same key from base DSO were required in the same DP.
    We worked it out in the End routine, where during the load we sort the data package for the same key combination and delete adjacent duplicates. then we lookup in the active table of the base DSO(ODS1 in your case) to get corresponding records for the same Key combination. Carry out the computaton and then populate the data package again..
    Similar Sample Code in 3.5 update rule routine:
      SORT DATA_PACKAGE[] BY material
                           /bic/zcdpcntry .
      DELETE DATA_PACKAGE[] WHERE material       IS INITIAL OR
                                  /bic/zcdpcntry IS INITIAL .
      CHECK DATA_PACKAGE[] IS NOT INITIAL.
      DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM DATA_PACKAGE[]
                            COMPARING material
                                      /bic/zcdpcntry.
      lit_dp[] = DATA_PACKAGE[] .
      REFRESH DATA_PACKAGE[] .
      SELECT material
             datefrom
        FROM /bic/azmd_o***00
      INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lit_cc
        FOR ALL ENTRIES IN lit_dp
      WHERE  material = lit_dp-material AND
            /bic/zcdpcntry = lit_dp-/bic/zcdpcntry.
    ***Processing KLogic..****
    Assigning to the datapackage.
        DATA_PACKAGE[] =   lit_dp[] .
    Hope this Helps..

  • Remote Desktop Session - users presented with Other User only?

    Hi,
    I am running a 2008 R2 server patched up to date.  It has the remote desktop services role installed.  Whenever I RDP or if a user launches a terminal services session they are presented with OTHER USER only.  
    This involves clicking the Other User before entering their credentials which is becoming a pain.  
    Non of the other servers are behaving this way.  I've compared the settings with the other and all is identical.  I've checked the local security policy and disabled all Group Policies but the behaviour still persists. Any ideas?
    Thanks, Matt.

    Hi Matt,
    Can you clarify more for this line, “Whenever I RDP or if a user launches a terminal services session they are presented with OTHER USER only.” what you mean by this? If I understand, when you taking RDP, you need to enter the credential for user manually
    and that you don’t want, yes? If misunderstood, please correct.
    For that, for a try you can enable the Group policy under credential manager and enable SSO for remote desktop connection. You can find the setting under beneath path.
    Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Credentials Delegation
    Allow Delegating Default Credentials: Enable
    Add "TERMSRV/<Your server name>" to the server list.
    There are other setting which you can check with following link.

  • How to know tablespaces, related with one user

    hi experts,
    please tell me how can i know the name of tablespaces, who are related with one user.
    thanx and regards

    I wish more people would use quota instead of the resource role and unlimited tablespace.UNLIMITED TABLESPACE is a particularly noisome privilege, because it grants quota on all tablespaces, including SYSTEM. The fact that RESOURCE used to include this privilege in its portfolio was the main reason not to grant it willynilly.

  • COPA - Multiple Sales Order with one wbs element.  COPA does not reference

    COPA - Multiple Sales Order with one wbs element.  COPA does not reference of reference of sales order.
    Hi All
    Currently we are in process of implementation of project related to Club Service for one of the client.
    Concept of this project is - there is "X" company engaged in supporting the different shared services for their client e.g. Client IBM - Shared Support Services of IBM is
    u2022     IDM
    u2022     Software Installation
    u2022     Help Desk
    u2022     Maintenance
    Co.. "X' is performing these services for IBM.    So for Co. "X" - IBM is one engagement. Like this way Co. X is performing such activities for many companies e.g. microsoft, HP, ABN AMRO etc.
    Objective - Get the consolidate report from COPA (Customer wise/services wise/sales order wise e.g. IBM/HelpDesk/10002/10).
    We propose a solution to create a project for each engagement and with WBS element. Each WBS element of different services e.g.
    Project IBM Inc.  100.100
    WBS Element    100.100.IDM 
    WBS Element    100.100.SoftIns
    WBS Element    100.100.HelpDesk
    WBS Element    100.100.Maintainance
    For this engagement (IBM), we are creating a sales order with line items (for services) and account assignment is WBS element.  In a sales order, there may be two lines for one services.   In a particular period, there are many such sales orders for this engagement... Milestone billing/period billing is used depending upon the services rendered.
    Now Cost Object will be WBS Element. So cost and revenue will posted to WBS and from this it goes to COPA.  In a month of May 2009 two - sales order is booked with three different line items with account assignment is WBS element.
    Sales Order Line Item No.....Item                  Account Assignment                      Revenue
    10000          100     IDM      100.100.IDM              1000
    10000          200     HELPDESK      100.100.HelpDesk              2000
    10000          100     Maintenance      100.100.Maintainance         3000
    Another Sales order booked with two different line items
    10000          100      IDM     100.100.IDM          3000
    10000          200      HELPDESK     100.100.HelpDesk          4000
    Cost will be booked directly against WBS element.
    In sales order level, there is no profitability segment, as cost object is WBS element.
    Billing, revenue will be posted directly to wbs element, from this revenue and cost of sales goes to COPA.
    Now in COPA,
    1.There is only one line for WBS element ex. 100.100.IDM with revenue 4000 (combing both the sales order)
    2.There is only one line for WBS element ex. 100.100.HelpDesk with revenue 6000 (combing both the sales order)
    3.There is only one line for WBS element ex. 100.100.Maintainance with revenue 4000
    In above case 1 & 2 we will not have reference of sales order and sales order line item in COPA table. There is only one line for this.  So we can not have reporting to sales order level.
    Is there any way by this the reference of sales order and sales order line will come in COPA for case 1 & 2.
    Please help in this issue.

    Hi,
    For these case (multiple materials with different characteristics); have you consider going to next level of WBS Elements. Meaning; lets say currently you are assigning WBS "Engineering (which is a level 2 WBS)" to all the items in SO. Instead under "Engineering" create 2 or 3 level 3 WBS Elements as E1, E2 etc and assign them 1:1 to your sales order line items. This would eliminate the exit as welll as complex development option. And also will let you get all the data in COPA and in turn you can pull to BW as well for reporting. Just a thought.
