there is absolutely no X on that machine. The keymap is just fine, what is not working is solely the AltGr Key. Do you know how to map it right? I was about trying with showkeys -s and the using it as input for setkeycodes, but I get more than one hex number, and I guess setkeycodes doesnt like that. An "" does not help..
View 3 Repliesas many others I don't need CapsLock. I want to reassign it such that it has the function of AltGr. I use Kubuntu 9.10 but I think there must be a solution which is distribution independent.
I already tried to use setxkbmap or xmodmap. Using xmodmap at least I managed that CapsLock to behaves like Del by following this description.
But I could not achieve assigning the AltGr behavior to CapsLock.
runlevels 2 -5 are identical in Ubuntu. /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf is used instead of /etc/inittab for changing the runlevel. But there's no point doing that since the runlevels are identical. The default runlevel is 2, so I tried to find some service I could disable in /etc/rc2.d. I didn't find anything I could work with.

Just as the title says: I installed iceweasel 6 in debian squeeze (via mozilla.debian.net) and while errors and requests are captured in the web console, I simply cannot use it to evaluate arbitrary javascript I type in it.
Does anyone have this problem as well? It's been like this since v5 as well. I already tried purging and reinstalling, as well as running with another profile.
Why my mouse doesn't work in console?
View 2 Replies View RelatedFirst 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.

I tried to use the startup manager and it killed my grub bootloader so I needed to reinstall.

I just tried to install evolution mail and it cannot log into my gmail account. I tried to install swift dove which is a faster version of thunderbird and it says it is starting but then never does. I am reasonably sure I should hang in there as I have heard Ubuntu is very good as an os.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI have been running kernel-2.6.33 (gentoo) with a graphical console which appears after the grub screen. My kernel parameters include `vga=0x317'. Since I upgraded my kernel I have only been able to get a 80x25 text console. If I use `vga=0x317' I get a black screen after the grub prompt. I have tried using `vga=ask' and choosing a number of resolutions - with no luck.
I've tried a "vanilla" 2.6.34 config and also a bootable Sabayon Linux disk with 2.6.34 - with the same result. Interestingly Sabayon Linux eventually fired up X successfully - after a black screen while it was booting.
Its looking like 2.6.34 doesn't like my hardware.
Here is some info about my hardware:

Just loaded Lenny, mostly with defaults. I'd like to go back to a command-line login for the console attached to the machine. Of course, I'd like to be able to 'startx' whenever I do want the GUI up.

View 4 Replies View RelatedThe serial console is for debugging and will physically disappear when product is mature. However, there are many background processes that may print out statuses/results. These go to /dev/console or serial console. Telnet will be the only way to get a console. I tried netconsole (with netcat) and it works, but it is only for kernel printk messages. I tried "program > /dev/pts/0" and it works also. it would be better if I can just change/add the console /dev/pts/0 to the existing /dev/console.

A friend gave me a copy of Ubuntu 10.10 so I've tried loading it onto an old Compaq Nx9005 Laptop yesterday. The installation seemed to progress OK, I completed all the information prompted for and then tried a reboot- but here's the problem:
It boots into the console but before the login request there are 2 lines:-
19.840039 AC'97 1access is not valid [0xffffffff], removing mixer.
19.840228 ali mixer 1 creating error.
Anyway after trying to login with user name and password it just awaits me to input a command.
Now reading through other posts I tried a Sudo startX command, this produced a large number of additional lines:
Picking out what I think might be helpful in resolving the problem:
X.Org X Server 1.9.0
Build Operating system : Linux 2.6.24-27-server i686 Ubuntu
(EE) Vesa: Kernal modesetting driver in use, refusing to load
(EE) No devices detected
Fatal server error:
No screens found
On the face of it it looks like it could possible be something to do with video drivers and/or sound drivers but just my own very limited assessment. I'm hoping that someone on this forum can come up with a reason and more importantly a solution.!
On another similar problem thread someone suggested that they might be at Run level 2 or 3 instead of run level 5 (Whatever that means!!!!).. well after entering the command run -r it tells me that I'm at level 2 but I can't change that to run level 5 by entering sudo telinit 5 - it just resorts to a command prompt
