General :: KDE Global Shortcuts Stopped Working?

Oct 4, 2010

I'm running the latest KDE4 and have gotten used to my Yakuake dropdown console.

The problem is that the global shortcuts in KDE stopped working, which basically makes my whole environment unusable now.

How can I fix this?

I restarted kded as suggested in some forums, but to no avail.

General :: Keyboard Shortcuts - Global Emacs-like Keybindings

Jul 16, 2011

I'm trying to emulate behaviour I get from KeyRemap4MacBook on Mac OS X. It lets me remap control-m to Enter, for instance, globally. Is this possible with X/GNOME? Seems like xmodmap is not suitable for remapping key combinations. I tried xbindkeys to bind control-m to xdotool key Return, but it emits control-return. I tried xdotool keyup control; xdotool key Return; xdotool keydown control but it stills behaves unpredictably.

Ubuntu :: Keyboard Shortcuts Stopped Working Suddenly?

Mar 18, 2011

I have recently noticed that my keyboard shortcuts stopped working.Things like F2 to rename files/folders, I think its ALT+F1 to bring up applications menu, however it comes up with a dialog saying Power Information. I also can not use backspace in FF to go back a page and things like that, which I find very annoying because I prefer to navigate with the keyboard and that deal.Yes I have Compiz installed however I have for a few months now without this problem which appeared only within the last fw days. I have had k at the keyboard shortcuts in Compiz and set them to default but nothing changed

Ubuntu :: Function Keys & Keyboard Shortcuts Stopped Working?

May 17, 2010

I'm using Ubuntu 9.10. All of a sudden several of my function keys stopped working and several keyboard shortcuts that I had setup involving function keys stopped working as well.

For example, when I go to preferences->keyboard shortcuts and try to set "Toggle fullscreen mode" to Alt+F11, the text "XF86AudioRaiseVolume" appears where it should just say "Alt+F11". Pressing Alt+F11 does nothing.

All of my function keys somehow got mapped to XF86AudioBlahBlah and no longer work. How do I undo this? I recently installed ffmpeg and gtk-recordmydesktop but I don't think I installed anything else.

OpenSUSE :: Personal Settings - Global Keyboard Shortcuts

Jan 28, 2011

I'm new to Linux. I'm running openSUSE 11.3 with both the Gnome and KDE desktops installed, but so far I'm only using Gnome. I was looking for a way to assign sound volume increase/decrease to some keyboard keys instead of having to click on the speaker icon at the bottom of the screen. I found what I included in the Title of this message. Under the Global Keyboard Shortcuts was an item for each increase and decrease sound volume. These were set to (I believe) meta+ and meta-, respectively.

I changed them to F12 and F11, respectively (to match my Apple keyboard). After the changes, I started a game which takes over the entire screen (which is why I wanted to assign the volume to keys in the first place) to see if the changes worked. They did not! So, I tried to go back and change them to something else and now I can't even access Global Keyboard Shortcuts at all. I keep getting the following error:

Sorry - System Settings
Failed to contact the KDE global shortcuts daemon
Message: Could not get owner of name 'org.kde.kglobalaccel': no such name
Error: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NameHasNoOwner

What's up and how do I recover from this (if I even care)? Also, how do I assign volume increase/decrease to keys?

Debian Multimedia :: Logitech G11 Keyboard On Squeeze - Global Shortcuts In KDE

Jul 3, 2011

I have a Logitech G11 keyboard with additional function keys from G1 to G18 and I added those keys to my XKeysymDB and ~/.xmodmaprc accordingly. According to xev, all those keys are working properly, eg.:

$ xev
...
KeyPress event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x3400001,
root 0x15d, subw 0x0, time 3518287, (167,-33), root:(1501,366),
state 0x10, keycode 175 (keysym 0x15000001, G1), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False

Now, if I try to bind any of those keys to global shortcuts in KDE I got a dialog telling: "The key you just pressed is not supported by Qt." these keys were working perfectly well in Lenny and KDE 3.5. I did some research, and it really seems that this is a some kind of "feature" in KDE 4.2 or Qt. So, is there any way to fix this easily in Squeeze without switching to Wheezy or even Sid?

Ubuntu :: Global Shortcuts To Settings/edit/configuration In GNOME?

Oct 30, 2010

I wonder if GNOME have this very cool shortcut feature where, no matter if it is a GNOME-bundled application or a third-party, you can open up the settings/edit/configuration for that particular app by pressing a keyboard combination?

Mac OS X has it in the form of Cmd+, and KDE also has it, although I dont remember what the default is for that. Does our beloved GNOME have it? It would be so rat if it does, or if it is possibly to enable.

General :: Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working - Gnome

Jun 24, 2011

I don't know when this started happening, but my shortcuts such as Super+D to minimize all and go to the desktop and Ctrl+Alt+T to open a terminal, etc, have stopped working.

Other shortcuts, such as Alt+F1 and Alt+F2 work correctly, as well as the compiz ones.

General :: Wake On Lan Stopped Working?

Jan 3, 2011

I have a laptop running Ubuntu 10.04 w/ wireless connection to desktop running Windows 7. I had it set up so I could execute a script to send a wakeonlan to the desktop. It worked fine for several weeks, but all of a sudden it stopped working. I've checked my script and it still looks good as far as I can tell. (I'm not that adept at script writing, so I wouldn't necessarily recognize a problem.) I've also checked the Windows machine to make sure the network adapter still is set to allow wake-on-lan.

BTW: my wake up script is as follows:
#!/bin/bash
wakeonlan xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

Where the x's replace my actual MAC address.

Ubuntu :: Tomboy Global Hotkeys Not Working In 10.10?

I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 (all the way from 8.04) and I can't seem to get Tomboys global hotkey bindings to work. In addition to Tomboys own settings, I have been messing with gconf-editor, but had no success there either. All I need is Alt+F11 combination to open the default note and I have no idea where to go next

General :: Wpa Supplicant Suddenly Stopped Working

Mar 16, 2010

Recently my wireless stopped working on my Debian testing system. It just doesn't connect. The best I get (only after a reboot) is that it says it did connect, but failed to get IP address. But usually it just tries to connect, disconnects straight away, connects again etc. so it never manages to associate correctly.

I am sure it did work about a month ago, stopped working after recent upgrades from the repository.

General :: Lenny - SSH Stopped Working Overnight?

Jan 11, 2011

I was on my server most the night via SSH doing changes (mostly permissions :/ ) and woke up this morning and get "Server unexpectedly closed network connection" from inside the network (via internal IP), AND outside the network (via outside IP)Obviously I messed something up somewhere right?

Any thoughts on what to verify or check first? Server is up, because I can access a few different hosted pages. I'm remote today, so I don't have access to the box. I'm assuming i'm SOL until I get to the box tonight to fix locally..

General :: Network Stopped Working On Ubuntu After System Had Locked Up

Jun 20, 2010

My main PC has AN Athlon X2 4600+ on an Asus M2npv-vm. Has been working fine for ages running Ubuntu. Today it the system locked up and I had to do a reset. Since then it will not connect to the router or cable modem. I can connect another PC to the router, so that looks okay.

What can I do to test the network connection from Ubuntu? It's not even getting an IP.

I suppose it could be something has died in the hardware, but want to eliminate other possibilities first.

Ubuntu :: Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working?

I don't think I could be much newer to Ubuntu (I only started using it properly an hour ago) and I'm having trouble with the keyboard shortcuts. Nothing happens when I press alt-f2 to run terminal, or ctrl-alt-tab to switch workspaces. I also cannot use the fn keys to dim the screen, change the volume etc

Fedora :: Volume Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working Properly

Aug 1, 2009

I just installed F11 on my new laptop (Acer Timeline 3810T) and I have the following issue when adjusting volume. The keyboard shortcuts work, but they don't raise/lower the volume smoothly, instead they do it in 4 or 5 increments total. What's weird is that the notification that appears in the screen when I adjust the volume (the whitish square with a picture of a speaker, I think it's part of Compiz) shows the the volume changing in small increments, but when I get to the 3rd or 4th little increment from the right the volume is already muted. If I look at the alsa volume controls at the same time, I see it changing by the 4 or 5 big increments.

This morning the keyboard shortcuts don't work ant longer; they worked yesterday. alt-tab doesn't switch among windows, alt-ctrl-t doesn't open the terminal etc. On the other hand, all usual shortcuts are OK in keyboard Shortcuts applet. It looks (to my poor intuition) there is something wrong with my usb keyboard recognition....

Slackware :: XFCE Keyboard Shortcuts Stop Working

May 22, 2010

I'm running XFCE on slackware64-current. I've had this problem for a number of months now. Every so often, XFCE will decide to not recognize key combinations that are mapped to keyboard shortcuts. For example, hitting ALT+F2 will not bring up the xfrun4 dialog box. This happens to all of my keyboard shortcuts (e.g., volume keys).

For now, I've resorted to going into the keyboard shortcut settings and double-clicking on each assignment and then hitting ok. This seems to correct whatever corruption is occurring. What's even more unusual is that all of the settings appear to be intact in the settings box and even in the .xml file.

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Suddenly Stopped Working AND Rfkill Command Not Working

Jul 13, 2011

When originally installing 11.04 I had problems getting my Ralink 5390 wireless card to work.

Today my computer froze completely and I had to turn it off via the power switch. When I turned it back on, wireless was no longer recognized! My iPod can connect to the network just fine, so it must be an Ubuntu problem. There are no problems with my ethernet connection either.

I researched this and found several threads about blocking and unblocking wireless devices using the rfkill command. Well, unfortunately for me the rfkill command doesn't work. When I type sudo rfkill list or sudo rfkill unblock all, nothing happens; it just returns me to my bash prompt. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling rfkill...nothing.

Ubuntu :: Unity Application Search Results Include Non-working Shortcuts?

Jul 12, 2011

I'm running Ubuntu 11.4. I've played with different versions of Picasa, installing the Linux version via Ubuntu Software Center and also using Wine. At a certain point I had several versions of the application installed and things were getting. When I search for Picasa in the Unity application search field (clicking the button with the dot in the centre at the top left of my screen) I got several results for Picasa, some of which when clicked would start Picasa and some which wouldn't. When I remove all versions of Picasa both from Wine and native I still get some results for Picasa which don't start Picasa when clicked.

General :: Shell Script Has Stopped Working - Why Is "" Appended To Filename And Does It Matter

Jun 8, 2011

I am new to Linux, but was put in charge of our company's Amazon presence. My problem is that all of the sudden, a shell script we have been using has stopped working, and returned an odd error that I simply can't decipher. The shell script is pretty simple, and is run on our crontab (however manually running it causes the same error as well). The script name is "sendh.sh" and to run it in Linux is simply typing "sh sendh.sh". Here it is:

[Code]....

Yes, obviously those files are in the directory, I can see them through the "ls" command (or through WinSCP as well). When run one by one, each command works fine, it's just when using this "sendh.sh" shell script then it fails. Does anyone know why "" is appended to the filenames when I try to run it, or what the heck "ambiguous redirect" means?

General :: Global Expressions Using Vi And Shell Scripting?

How can I add a " # " pound sign at the beginning of every line in a file. So if I want to remark out every line in a file, what would be the global expression for that? Is there a global expression cheat sheet?
