Hi all
I have recently installed arch and XFCE4 as my desktop environtment everything went well for a few days.
But all sudenl 2 days ago thing appeared not working properly. Things displayed on my desktop are out of proporion mainly the X as cursor instead of an arrow, newly opened windows default to top right cornner overlap my taskbar panel not able to move this. I've tried to re-install xfce4 but weren't sure I did it correctly.
tried :
pacman -Rdd xfce4 xfce4-goodies
rm -R ~/.config/xfce4
then reinstall problem still occurs.
Any suggests and help would be greatly appreciated.

Be sure you cursor theme is complete. Which one are you trying to use? Did you try setting it up from directly X confs?
There must be an option in window manager or window manager tweaks about overlapping taskbar. You can use alt+left mouse to move your windows till it is configured.
Reinstalling is as meaningless as deleting system32. If you are out of options, just delete your .config folder then reinstall.?

  • Javascript not working with 'Display as Text (does not saves state)'

    Hi,
    We have these following items in P3 of our application,
    P3_EDIT_ACCOUNT Display as Text (saves state)
    P3_USEFUL_LINKS Display as Text (saves state)
    P3_LAST_APPROVED Display as Text (saves state)
    P3_ARCHIVES Display as Text (saves state)
    And we are initializing these items in a pl/sql process under 'Page Rendering'
    For example,
    :P3_ARCHIVES := '<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Archives</font></a><td> ';
    When our environment was upgraded from HTMLDB1.5 to HTMLDB2.0,
    instead of displaying the proper value of :P3_ARCHIVES,
    it was displaying the tags,
    i.e. instead of displaying 'Archives', it was displaying the whole
    '<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Archives</font></a><td> '
    So, when we changed all items to 'Display as Text (does not saves state)' and it was working.
    But then we have another problem,
    We render the rest of the same page with another pl/sql block,
    Here is a portion from that pl/sql for your reference,
    htp.p('
    <script>
    //Script to check the status change.
    //The script source is rendered through PL/SQL.
    function checkStatus()
    var promptStr = someString;
    if(ans.toUpperCase() == "AMBER" || ans.toUpperCase() == "RED")
              var cnfm = confirm(promptStr);
              if(cnfm)
              do something....
    </script>
    htp.print('
    <td width="5%" bgcolor="#ebebc5" height="19" align="middle" >
    <input TYPE="radio" name="'||l_g_fnumber||'" value="GREEN"');
    IF l_allow_update THEN
         htp.print(' onClick="checkStatus()"');
    ELSE
    htp.print(' disabled onmousedown="return false;"');
                        do something....
    Now the issue is , when we changed all items to 'Display as Text (does not saves state)', the checkStatus() function is not getting called in the onClick
    event of the radio button and hence the confirm window for the call to
    confirm(promptStr) is not coming up.
    But if we revert back the items to 'Display as Text (saves state)',
    the checkStatus() javascript function is getting called properly but html tags are displayed against the items instead of the proper value (as mentioned in ********)
    Please do let us know a possible solution to this issue.
    Thanks & Regards-
    Rupak

    Thanks Varad for your response.
    This is the error i am getting.
    1 error has occurred
    PLSQL anonymous block source type can be used ONLY with Display Text (based on PLSQL) item type.
    yes i am using in the source..
    I also tried with the PL/SQL Expression of FUNCTION in this case it is executing the query but once i run the page ora- 06550 error occured.
    Thanks

  • My Bionic does not work properly. The phone should not have been released...dead Camels

    I took my Bionic back to Verizon yesterday. I am not getting 4G data, and it will not work in the car dock. When I got to the store, I had 4G, and it worked perfectly in the dock, all he did was sit it in. This phone must only work in the store, maybe that is why they released it before it was ready.
    The Verizon technician told me that there were problems with the phone, but that the responsibility belonged to Motorola. He said there was going to be an update in November and that I should wait. This concerns me because it means Verizon will pass the buck on this one.
    What choice do I have? My return period is way over. I am paying for a service that I don't have yet I can't get out of it. If the phone can't be fixed by a software update, then what? At that point, I will either hope for a class action suite, or cancel my contract and pay $350 so that I can get a decent phone....iPhone from AT&T. That would be cheaper than buying a new phone from Verizon under my current contract. I can't keep a phone that never works. 
    I think yesterday was like the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I tried for 15 min to get the car dock to work, and nothing would turn it on. That is when I just drove to Verizon. I figured they should see one more unhappy customer in person instead of just online...alas, no one there gave a **bleep** and they are still trying to sell the Bionic to the unsuspecting customer. It should be pulled off of the shelf until it is fixed.

  • The letters e-o on my keyboard is not working properly. Nothing spilled, Laptop not dropped.  I've cleaned out underneath and everything seems fine. Problem happens intermittently but seems to get worst the longer I have the computer on. Any ideas?

    Macbook pro  OSX  Version 10.9.4
    Top row of letters, e-o, are sluggish and not working each time  press them.
    I have cleaned underneath them, I did not spill anything or drop the computer - It just started to happen.
    Any ideas????

    The behavior of the keyboard not responding after the machine is on and used for a time sounds a lot like swelling under the keyboard…the battery is under the keyboard, processor to the side, and issues with trackpads and keyboards have often ended up being a battery swelling.  Makes it worth while taking the MacBook Pro in sooner rather than later to have it checked.  The techs may ask to keep the machine for a few hours so they can run it long enough to see the behavior if nothing shows immediately on their diagnostics.
    When things like this happen, my attitude is on the conservative side…check it out before it can get worse.

  • Cd drive not working properly on iMac, cd drive not working properly on iMac

    I am having issue with a CD drive that takes a long time to download a CD or sometimes will just eject the CD outright.  I rarely use the CD drive so it's strange that I should be having this issue.  Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem could be?  And also, any suggestions to fix it.  Thanks.

    Zap the PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

  • Hello,  For approximately 2 months, my iPhone 4s has not worked properly. Intermittently, it does not ring in or log  incoming calls. I have no way to know there was a call unless there is a voicemail message. The phone worked fine for the first 4 months.

    Iphone 4S refuses to ring sometimes and leaves no log of the call.  It is extremely intermittent and is in a strong reception area.

  • Image display control scrolling does not work properly when zoomed in

    I am using a ROI on an image in the image display control. When zooming into the image to fine-adjust the positioning of the ROI, the image scrolling does not work properly. As far as I understand, the image should scroll automatically when the ROI is leaving the visible area. However, the scrolling behaviour seems to depend on the origin of the Labview panel, not the origin of the image display control, which might require to move the ROI way out of the visible area before the scrolling takes place. In other words: the coordinate system of the image display control is shifted with respect to the true visible image area, depending on where you place it on the front panel. As a consequence, when clicking on a ROI which is in the visible area, but is outside of what Labview thinks is the visible area, it might immediately jump to the left border of the image, making the positioning of the ROI really difficult.
    Has anyone noticed this behaviour, and what would be a reliable solution to avoid this? 
    Dirk

    Hello,
    no, I am not talking about the tools palette. Just place an image control with some image in it on a new VI front panel. Then, use the rectangle from the tools and select a ROI in the image. If you zoom in (using the magnification glass), and then grab the ROI and move it around, the image scroll with the ROI. So far, so good. If you now place the image control elsewhere on the panel, or add new control above it, resize the panel, etc. , this scrolling when moving the ROI will not work correctly if the origin (0,0) of the panel is far away from the image control.
    I have attached a VI for simplicity (although there is hardly any code in it).
    If you make a ROI and try to move it down, you will notice that scrolling starts if you move the mouse out to about 10cms below the image (depens on your screen, of course). After that, if you click on the ROI, the scroll bars and ROI might jump up to the upper end of the image. Imagine how annoying this is if you try to finely adjust the ROI position. 
    I think it is a bug in the implementation of the image display control.
    Thanks,
    Dirk

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • Display has white and grey lines and blocks crisscrossing it and touch functions are not working properly on half the screen.

    I dropped my iPhone 5S and it landed flat on it's face (it was in a protective case).  Since then my touch screen display is not working properly. I have white and grey lines and/or blocks crisscrossing the screen both horizontally and vertically.  Screen responds to touch in odd random ways, but rarely does what I am trying to do.  Can't call or receive calls because can't dial or answer phone via swipe. Can't text or read incoming texts. All functions seem to be working except that I can't access them because the touch screen is acting up. If I move the phone around it randomly accesses different apps or functions, but I have no control over them once the appear on the screen.  Touching screen just causes phone to randomly choose something else to open.  What have I damaged?

    We cannot possibly tell. Obviously some hardware inside. Take it in to an Apple Store. They will offer you the opportunity to swap the phone for $269 in the US. Prices vary by country.
