ACDSee visible bottom-right thin strip issue

http://community.acdsee.com/forums/topic/full-screen-in-vista/page/3

There's a very simple solution that should work in all versions of ACDSee. I've even tried it on ACDSee 5,01 and works fine ...

First you have to go to "ACDSee" main directory (Usually C:\Program Files\ACD Systems\ACDSee). Right click the ACDSee.exe file.

You should select "Compatibility" tab and mark "Disable desktop composition". Apply changes, OK. Done ...

Now, when you open ACDSee or an associated file, the screen goes black for miliseconds (Aero is beeing disabled), ACDSee starts and works like on XP. When you turn ACDsee off, Aero starts (the screen goes black for miliseconds again).

You don't have to switch between resolution modes, you don't have to turn Aero off manually, everything works automaticaly.

If it works for you - just write here please a version of ACDSee you're using.

Regards,

Wojtek

GO perl-api pre-2005 problem

most GO databases pre-2005 have different structures compared to later versions.

unknown - 03/2003:
no ncbi_taxa_id reading ability. (the data is there but the reading is too tricky - dropped)
solution: use database on/after 04/2003; API 04/2003.

04/2003 - somewhere before 01/2005:
some small compatibility issues with API ver. 2005.
solution: use API ver 200401.

02/2005 - now: no problem so far with API ver. 2005.

My guess is that you need a new config.guess and config.sub. Get the
latest from:

http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.guess
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.sub

setup Logitech G5 mouse under fedora 6 (linux)

from:

http://adterrasperaspera.com/blog/2006/06/20/logitech-g5-review-under-linux/
...

How to get it to work in Linux

As a USB HID device, it already works in Linux; however, to get the full use out of the mouse (such as being able to use the tilt function correctly) edit your/etc/X11/xorg.conf’s InputDevice section for your mouse to say:

Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "evdev"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Name" "Logitech USB Gaming Mouse"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "false"
EndSection

… which should allow you to use the fourth/thumb button, and the tilt function correctly. Buttons one through three and the wheel already corectly work without this. Also, on Ubuntu, make sure xserver-xorg-input-evdev is installed, as it is not installed by default.

Also, in some versions of X, tilt left and tilt right may be backwards. To fix this, create a file called ~/.Xmodmap and put in it:

pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 7 6 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20

and run xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap to update your map. On logging in again, Gnome will ask if you want to load this file: click on the file, click “Load”, and click “Ok”.

to map the fourth/thumb button as middle button:

Patrick McFarland, on November 6th, 2006 at 8:57 pm, said:

Well, technically it is up to your applications to make use of the thumb button.

Currently, I remapped it to be a middle button (which has the unfortunate side-effect of not letting the middle button stay the middle button, but hey)

In the above .Xmodmap, change 2 to 8, and 8 to 2. That will make your thumb button be a middle mouse button.

[this might not need the editing of /etc/X11/Xorg.conf. xmodmap should be able to handle it alone.]

Otherwise, if you don’t want to do that, just map your thumb button to something useful in the programs you use. Programs often don’t have any defaults for that button.

1. always use official driver from nvidia (need kernel & kernel-devel)
2. in ~/.bash_profile, add:
export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1

fedora core 6 双拼问题之解决

the original scim-pinyin package does not support shuangpin
get source code from sourceforge:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/scim/scim-pinyin-0.5.91.tar.gz?download

use tar to extract,
then go to src dir.

grep shuang_pin *.cpp
and change the line (from file scim_pinyin_imengine.cpp)
159 m_shuang_pin (false),
to
159 m_shuang_pin (true),
then:

yum install qt-devel
yum install scim-devel

./configure
make
make install

logout and relogin
enjoy!

ATI driver / direct rending no problem

DO NOT USE livna ATI driver for fedora core 6
for it does not support AIGLX

just download official driver from ati.amd.com and install.
need latest kernel & kernel-devel

btw, the system display control will fail when using the ATI official driver but it's not a big deal.

zz[how to speed up fedora core]

Fedora Core 2 has some default settings that can slow the PC down. It's easy to change them though.

The first one is a well-known problem where IPv6 is enabled by default, and unless you're using IPv6 (99.99% of people aren't), then it slows down the response time for Internet activites (web browsing, e-mail, etc.). To fix that, add the following line in /etc/modprobe.conf:

alias net-pf-10 off

The other thing that can slow down a PC is some scripts that are run by default every day. They include things like updating rpm info, updating slocate database, etc. These scripts are useful, but they are CPU and HD intensive. And if you're like me, and turn off your PC until you're ready to use it, these scripts run when you turn the PC on, and the system will always seem sluggish. It's easy to change this. What I would suggest is not to delete these scripts, but to have them only run once a month (which is probably ok for most people). The way it works is that any script in the /etc/cron.daily directory gets run every day. If you move some of them to the /etc/cron.monthly directory, they'll only get run every month. The files I would recommend moving are:

makewhatis.cron
prelink
rpm
slocate.cron
yum.cron

also, use system-config-service or command line to disable yum-updatesd (which also cause problem when starting yum righ after system startup - existance of yum.pid)
su -
/sbin/chkconfig --level 345 yum-updatesd off
/sbin/service yum-updatesd

quick & easy way to disable the goddamned PC speaker beeps

Edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and add :
blacklist pcspkr

That's it. If you want to disable it right now (the above line will prevent the kernel to load the module on each startup), simply type :

/sbin/modprobe -r pcspkr

If the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist doesn't exist on your distro, the /etc/modprobe.conf file will work too.
