I'm running VirtualBox 3.2.6 on a Win7 computer. In VB I have several clients:
3 OpenSuse, 11.2 & 11.3, 2 w Gnome one text-only. One Smoothwall Two Debian Lenny, one w Kde one w Lxde Only in one Debian, the one w Kde, the numerical keypad doesn't work! I've tried booting without X but no difference.
First of all, this is not famous problem, which solves by unchecking "Allow to control the pointer using the keyboard". My numpad navigation does not work in console under X. Nor in Konsole/KDE/Kubuntu (9.10), nor in Console/Gnome/Ubuntu (9.04). It works in graphics applications. It works in system console in text mode (Ctrl+Alt+F1..6) too. But in Konsole I can't navigate cursor by numpad arrows in Midnight Commander or text editors. When NumLock is on - the numbers are typed. But when it off, nothing happens - cursor doesn't move. The same reaction from Home/End/PgUp/PgDn keys on numpad.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use VNC, open an xterm, and for example when I press "NumPad7", it completes "Home" command. Also "NumPad1" is mapped to "End". In fact there is a code for .cshrc that does the work required. But unfortunately I can't translate it into a bash code. Please help me to translate. Here is the code:
if ($?TERM) then
# fix the home, end, ins and del keys
if ($TERM == "xterm" || $TERM == "vt100" ||

On my HP TX2500 laptop, dual-booting Vista and 9.04, Ubuntu installation found the WLAN and it works fine.I installed VirtualBox with Vista as the host and 9.04 as the guest. Wired Ethernet works fine but it didn't seem to find my WLAN. What more do I need to do?

From my svpn.log when trying access:
When either of the proprietary Nvidia drivers are enabled, viewing the desktop using a remote client (Windows TightVNC) does not work. The initial remote screen display is ok, but no updates to the remote display occur. Reverting back to the non-proprietary driver solves the problem. I have also tried using a 10.04 Live CD and used Remote Desktop Viewer on the client machine, and it behaves the same way.

BACKGROUND:
My local subnet (NAT'ed by my gateway router) is 192.168.52.x. My router has been configured with a conduit (port-forward) for port 1194 (the standard OpenVPN port), which points towards my CentOS server.The CentOS server is .52.112, and the supplicant is .52.110.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm not able to get the num pad on the keyboard working. I can switch it On and off but when I want to use it in some apps like KWrite it's not working.
It seems to be a generally error, because I tried several keyboards. USB, PS2 , older ones, new Cherry, ... It's always the same. I have a german keyboard layout and all keys including the € sign and the special keys for play, stop, ... are working except the num pad.
The strange thing is. When I switch to another console e.g. ALT+F2 the num pad is working.So I think it's an problem in KDE. But I can not find the error.
I'm using OpenSuSe for a long time, but this problem never happened before.
I can work around it for now if I have to, but it's a weird and annoying bug. Basically, since installing openSUSE 11.3 RC1 I've been unable to use the 0 key on my numpad. The rest of the numpad functions correctly, it's just the 0 key and it is in both numlock on and off modes (not that I ever use it in off, but I tested anyway). This is the relevant output from xev:
Code:
KeyPress event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x5e00001,

View 9 Replies View RelatedIn Ubuntu used to be a keyboard option called "Make Shift+NumPad work like MS Windows" or something. It allowed me to press for example Shift+NumPad 7 and it would get registered as the "Home" key. Without that option the shift key acts like a temporary NumLock and it'll pick up a "7" instead. My regular Home/End keys are somewhat out of reach, so I wonder where the setting is in XFCE. I'm using the latest XUbuntu 11.04.

yesterday I was trying to install Puppy Lucid 5.2 on a old PC (PII 533mhz 265mb RAM). First of all I have launched the live cd, then set up language, time zone and keyboard... at this point pc stopped working and stay blocked on the desktop screen with no possibility to move pointer or use keyboard. Is it possible that hardware is too old to work with Puppy Lucid 5.2? May I have to try with a lighter OS (which one?)?

If I do the following, if the URL is a redirect, it doesn't work
rpm -ivh http://path/to/rpm
I have to use wget http://path/to/rpm which resolves the redirect and downloads the file, then run rpm on that file.
More for my knowledge of bash than anything else, would there be a way to redirect the file downloaded from wget into the rpm (something like redirection or pipes or something), so that they could be combined into one command and you wouldn't explicitly save the file first.
Something like... rpm -ivh << wget http://path/to/rpm
I have one more question, and that is whether there is a command in linux, such as wget, that would let me pass it a URL and output the redirected-to URL if the argument.
e.g. ('wget --someflag http://orig/url' would output 'http://url-after-redirects-followed')
I just installed Fedora 12 and after downloading and running the Java Sound Demo I get exceptions. If I run just a vanilla Java program that plays a .wav file it runs silently with no sound and no exceptions.
Every other app seems to play sound. I also took some advice from this thread in the Ubuntu forums which almost seemed to work. (Installing aoss got rid of the initial exceptions in the sound demo but I still hear nothing when I play.) I'm getting frustrated by the individual hoops I have to go through to eek sound out of my speakers when running Java apps on Linux platforms!
I tried using a command likecp `ls ~/temp/*.xyz | head -1` ./But that does not work. If I echo the value of command inside back ticks and put it manually in cp command it works.

I have this old kUbuntu box here, which used to be 8.04. For some reason after a bunch of upgrades and other unrelated changes sound doesn't work any more.
Sound works on this machine when rebooting to Windows, so it's not hardware problem. It used to work on Linux on this machine before, so it's not weird hardware. (lspci says 00:10.1 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP51 High Definition Audio (rev a2)) This problem persists across resets. alsamixer etc. claims sound is not muted, and volume is high. it's the same no matter which program I try to play some sounds (or which -ao for mplayer, default seems to be pulse) nothing obvious shows up in system settings
Do I really need to reinstall the system to fix that, or is there something simple I'm missing?
