Hi, I''m relatively new to ruby and rails. I would like to have a sidebar component call one of several other constituent components. I''ve run into some problems, and so I''ve pruned things back to a relatively simple case. I have a sidebar component. Renders great. In it''s layout, I call render_component for another component I would like in the sidebar.

Hello there, w/ my CentOS6 (up-to-date), running GNOME, I'm struggling with HAL and mount options for my USB storage devices. According to what I'm reading from: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/general/hal.html My old policies in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/ are ignored (and this is true!). Apparently I should edit my custom mount options through gconf-editor (in

I am using gconftool to set a number of parameters up automatically... However, the one parameter I cannot find is under root you should be able to set the "automatic login" on first boot up. This found under "Applications", "System settings", "Login screen", then automatic login. Can someone point me to that setting? THanks, Jerry

I pushed out some changes to gwd that makes it possible to properly set an overall opacity value for any metacity theme. Making the complete decorations translucent can look bad with some themes. However, I've made it possible to have the opacity fade from opaque to the selected opacity value in a similar way to how the built-in decorations look. This usually looks a lot better. I'll add

Hi All, I run these commands for previous 7.2 to hide the bottom panel. gconftool-2 -t int --list-type int --set /apps/panel/toplevels/bottom_panel/auto_hide_size 0 gconftool-2 -t bool --list-type bool --set /apps/panel/toplevels/bottom_panel/auto_hide true It does not seem to be working any more...

Hi all, I've written a tool that configured Virtual Machine Manager, but I've got a condition that I am now sure how to handle... If the user isn't logged in and I configure their ~/.gconf/apps/virt-manager/*, and then they log in, everything works great. However, if they've already logged in and there was no prior virt-manager configuration, the custom config is overwritten

I would like to have my lab workstations logout a session after the person has been idle for a certain period of time. After some searching on the web, I got into /etc/gconf/schemas/gnome-session.schemas and set the default value of max_idle_action to ?forced-logout?: <schema> <key>/schemas/desktop/gnome/session/max_idle_action</key>

Hi! Aaf trunk has undergone several major refactorings the last days, with the result that you can now transparently switch your app from local to remote indexing and back :-) If you plan to scale your app to more than one physical machine, or if you have problems with corrupted indexes and the like under high load, you really should give this a try. I wrote some documentation to get you

Hi, am using this wonderful plugin acts_as_ferret and according to the tutorial at http://railsenvy.com/2007/2/19/acts-as- ? rial#basic I worked it out except the pagination feature. If I have 12 records and I give limit to 10, its correctly displaying 10 records in the first page and is giving the link to the second page too. But when I go to the next page I find the same 10 records instead of

Hi, I''m having some trouble overriding/defining the default_field_options constant without raising a warning. I''ve tried adding the code to do it in an initializer but that produces a warning (because the constant is already frozen), after some googling I found a recommendation to put it in the environment.rb file but that then that throws uninitialized constant ActionView

In CentOS5 you were able to create a server section in /etc/gdm/custom.conf such as [server-Standard] name=Standard server command=/usr/bin/Xorg -br -audit 4 -s 15 chooser=false handled=true flexible=true priority=0 After this change, Xorg would run with the -br -audit 4 -s 15 options. Unfortunately in CentOS6 this is not the case. It completely ignores anything put into custom.conf as far
