For the people that want to test Flash 10.1 on Ubuntu 64-bits you’ll notice that there is no 64-bits version. There is a simple workaround.
Install first the flashplayer installer through apt-get (This will actually install flash 32-bits with a wrapper so its works on a 64-bits browser
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
Then download the 10.1 version here and put the libflashplayer.so file in /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer
This will override the current 10.0 version.
I was dealing with some issues with NetworkManager (used in various Linux distro’s).
When I configured a VPNC connection in NetworkManager it couldn’t connect with all various errors like no VPN secrets is the famous one. I found a workaround so it works now.
If you have a config like mine you’re probally affected. We have a static group password and a OTP (One-Time-Password) for the user password.
If you create a connection put all items on Saved and enter a value. If you save it now it will ask you (if you use it for the first time) for access to the keyring. For my config I’ve to put a dummy user password.
Once saved you can edit and set the user password to Always ask.
Tested on Ubuntu 9.10 & 10.04 and openSUSE 11.2
Here is a small how-to install IBM Lotus Notes 8.5 on Ubuntu Jaunty 64 bits
There is a bug in project woodstock when used in HTTPS with IE7 or newer. Since project woodstock has ended and all new development effort will be in ICEfaces it seems this “bug” will not be fixed.
There are some solutions to change de webui-jsf.jar library to hardcode the URL, since this is not the best solution, because you have to create a patch for every project (even create a patch if you move the project from test to production envoirement).
So i’ve looked in the code (shipped with Netbeans) and made a little fix. I determine the server URL from the HttpServletContext.
ICEfaces 1.8.0 is out. I’ve used various Beta & RC releases of 1.8.0. They are getting close to get it to let it work good on NetBeans, but still sticked to Project Woodstock ( + DynamicFaces). Maybe this release will get me there to work with ICEfaces.
Finally some annoying bugs are fixed now. Visual Designer ICEfaces (Netbeans) works almost like a charm now.
There are some small things missing (like effects) but these things are easlily to work around in JSP edit mode.
