View 1 Repliesanyone has a clue why 'ctrl+a, k' nor 'ctrl+a, :kill' doesn't work for killing one of screen windows? Other screen's commands invoked with 'ctrl+a'seem to work.

There is no workaround for it as I see by now, so I am trying to get it work this way:I want to map Ctrl+W in Hebrew layout(which is actually a Ctrl+') to be a Ctrl+w. Here is what I got from xmodmap:Code:$ xmodmap -pke | grep 25keycode 25 = w W Cyrillic_tse Cyrillic_TSE apostrophe WAs you can see, there are pairs for each layout, each pair tells what happens without and with the Shift key pressed.

I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 x64 and already am really annoyed by Firefox, which freezes my mouse after changing a tab (with ctrl+tab, alt+#) or closing it (ctrl+w). After about one second, i can continue working as usual. Changing Tabs by just clicking on one does not freeze anything...Maybe some of you would think now if I am crazy because of complaining about such a little thing, but it is really annoying if you are used to work fluently with ff.Edit:I today noticed, that not only shortcuts in firefox, but all Hotkeys freeze my mouse for a second. For examle ctrl+c, ctrl+v, super+e or anything else.Do you have any Idea what causes this behaviour? Reinstalling ubuntu didn't change anything
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am running Centos 5.5 with all the GUI stuff, including nx server and webmin.Sometimes while watching the bootup messages because my eyesight is very poor.I hit <ctrl s> to pause the output so I can read some details. If I do this late in the init sequence - it often briefly stops the output then the screen disappears under a blue wash (presumably something to do with the GUI login screen ot screensaver??)but the login screen never appears. Also it seems that the script never completes because the imap, webmin and http servers don't appear to have started.
I haven't found any satisfactory way out of it. I can't get back to a console terminal (I've tried ctrl c, d, z, etc.). As luck would have it the nx server has started so I can open an nx session. If I open a terminal in an nx session as root.I can't do a normal restart (shutdown -r now). Nothing happens presumably it can't run the init script because it is still running.The only way I have found to get the system back to life is to run "shutdown -r -n now" in the nx terminal session.There are probably better ways out of this predicament that I am unaware of. Otherwise it is probably somewhere between an annoyance and a bug. I would be interested in any advice the centos "board" may have as to whether this is worth raising as a redhat bug.
I just spent a few days ripping out all the broken/buggy apps that are in the opensuse 11.2 official repos so I can finally get working software(openoffice, thunderbird, wine, eclipse, rubygems, rails, and a few others required getting the "official" versions from their respective websites to avoid strange behavior and outright broken functionality).
All of which makes updating more annoying and time-consuming. Why are opensuse packages so different anyway? Anyway, the last thing that I have noticed to fix is Konsole. For some really bizarre reason ctrl+z and ctrl+c do not work without a third keystroke: enter.Maybe this is something new with the KDE team, since they seem bent on making simple things that already work more complex, but given my experience with crappy packages in the suse repos, I am thinking this is the problem. I have looked over all the config settings that I can find and nothing fixes this affront to productivity.
I've been using Kaggregator in KDE-PIM, which uses Konqueror as the browserto go to links from Kaggregator.Unfortunately, Konqueror no longer seems tobe able to Copy highlighted material with Ctrl C, the way we've done it forever.Is this a setting I've missed? Or is this a new "feature" in Konqueror?

Here's what I've done so far, I've copied /etc/init.d/single for the structure, and tried to use dtach to provide a handle to access the process. However, my main problem is issuing the signals to kill the process (Ctrl-C) from a bash script and exit dtach (Ctrl-`)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI often use the key combination ctrl + shift + F10 in my editor, and sometimes I mistakenly hit ctrl + alt + F10 which instantly transports me to a black screen with nothing but a cursor resulting in my having to reboot. I have no idea what the purpose of this key binding is but I want to get rid of it. I have looked in 'keyboard shortcuts' but there is none listed for ctrl + alt + F10. How do I disable this once and for all?

But I found that even after reboot, I'm still stuck with TTY. I clicked Ctrl Alt F7 but still it's a terminal and it did not return to the GUI or the normal desktop. What will I do to exit it? It's a good thing I have windows vista along with it or else I'll now have a computer that I can't use outside the terminal.
As nothingspecial said, I should place the link of the tutorial I was following: [URL]
I've just done a fresh install of Natty. The key Ctr-Alt-R doesn't do anything. I've checked in both Unity and Gnome. Using the Keyboard Layout GUI when I press Ctrl and then Alt and then R, the Ctr and Alt keys light up but the R key doesn't. Ctr-Alt-S works (and so do the other keys I've tried). kev shows a keynotify event for Ctrl-Alt-R, not a keypress event. I've checked my Keyboard Shortcuts to make sure it isn't listed there, but since the Keyboard Layout doesn't show the R key being pressed I don't think it's a shortcut issue.
View 2 Replies View Relatedok, I pressed alt-ctrl-f1 and it displayed my screen with a gui. I then pressed alt-ctrl-f2 and it displayed a textual desktop. I pressed alt-ctrl-f3 and it displayed the same thing. When I pressed alt-ctrl-f1 to return to my gui, it would not let me return to a gui. I was stuck in a cmd line textual desktop.
How, without restarting, do i return to a gui once I press alt-ctrl-f2??
I am using opensuse 11.2 on my dell studio 14 laptop and to my surprise the key combination for bringing up text based console does not function as expected.when I press ctrl+alt+ fn keys I am greeted with a blank screen and ctrl+alt+F7 brings me back to the GUI plasma desktop.Does this have to do something with the acpi=off thing I did for booting successfully into linux ( without this option, the screen would go off and not respond to anything ... physical restart was the only option). although my system starts off without any fuss, OS does not detect the battery of my laptop.
View 14 Replies View RelatedA few months ago I installed slack 13.1 on two completely different machines with very different hardware and of differnt age, they are not networked and I dont ssh to or from them.
The only things they have in common are, I installed the same version of slack, on the same day and they are both connected to the same router and modem.
They had been working fine for a few months. I have not installed any common programs on them, just what came with slack.
Last week, on the same day both computers started to freeze in X, no mouse or keyboard control, could not use ctrl+f1.. Etc. Then they would lockup while looking in the bios, not at boot but when i would go into the bios. Neither computer will restart if I use the reset button, No bios startup or antything unless I hold down the power button for a few seconds the push the power botton again.
Does this sound like I have been cracked or just a big coincedence(sp?)
Right Ctrl has traditionally been the key used to un-grab the keyboard/mouse in VirtualBox. I've never had a problem with it before, but on my laptop it doesn't work. When I press the key, I get this xev output code...
So, I am pretty confident that the key itself is functional. However, it doesn't seem to do anything in applications. For example, keyboard shortcuts in Kate (such as Ctrl+a to select all) do not work with the right Ctrl key.
The default is forbidden in F10.

I'm currently logged in (locally) to a machine and was running in a TTY session without having started an X server. I accidentally Ctrl-Alt-F7'ed bringing me to where the graphical shell would be if it was running. The trouble is, I can't get back. I assume going to another TTY is forbidden using the standard Ctrl-Alt-F* to protect students who have logged in to KDE or whatever, locked the screen, but don't realize that anyone could come along and Ctrl-Alt-F1 into their TTY session. The trouble is that there IS no X server running, and so I can't exit from it, and am stuck in the Ctrl-Alt-F7 TTY which just has a cursor blinking at the top left of the screen.
Is there another way to switch currently-viewed TTY? How can I get out of this?
Things that do not work:
ctrl-alt-backspace
alt-shift-sysrq-REISUB
How to change this sequence to, for example "Ctrl+Fn+F1" or temporarily disable it?@related: How to send Ctrl+Alt+F1 to window (to switch terminal remotely, not locally)?
