Hardware :: Acpi Events From Specific Input Event Sources?
Oct 6, 2010
The remote for my Pinnacle PCTV HD 800i is generating key code 116 for the power button on it, and acpid (debian/squeeze 2.0.6-1) merrily accepts this as if I pressed the power button on the case. It raises the same event "button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000" either way, so I can't tweak the handlers to respond to one or the other. And I don't think the source event source is available to the handlers.
acpid doesn't seem configurable at all in terms of ignoring an event source, and I don't know if you can selectively remap keys from a particular event source. Most of what I find are people try to get buttons to work, not disable them. Not that it seems to make any difference, but it's mapped to void in dumpkeys.
Code:
keycode 116 = Do
altgr control keycode 116 = VoidSymbol
shift alt keycode 116 = VoidSymbol
I have it remapped in X for use in mythtv using xmodmap, which works fine. The acpid that came with debian/lenny didn't do this.

I have disabled GDM and start GNOME with gnome-session from .xinitrc . Now when i press Sleep button, GNOME says it cannot suspend. The same is with pressing suspend or hibernate buttons on Shutdown window.
At the same time "sudo pm-suspend" and "sudo pm-hibernate" DO work. So, i would like to disable GNOME from listening to ACPI events and to configure everything via acpid scripts.
I tried to stop acpid to see if GNOME will not receive events in this case, but it still does.
So, the question: how can i stop GNOME from listening to ACPI events?

I'm trying to make sure that my laptop will suspend if I unplug it after the lid is already closed, and I believe that one way to accomplish this would be to simulate an ACPI lid event when the power adapter is plugged or unplugged. In order to do this, I need to find a command that will generate a fake ACPI lid event. Is there any such command?

When I run OpenSUSE from the Live CD using normal settings, booting stops with a blank screen a moment after the kernel is loaded. When running it with ACPI disabled, it works, but direct rendering is disabled, even though it detects my video card (Mobility Radeon HD 5650) correctly Here's the Xorg.0.log file: my xorg log - [URL]

I'm trying to call a specific variable based on a user selection. For example:
Code: Select a file:
[1] foo.tar
[2] bar.tar
Enter a selection: I have already coded each possible selection to have its own variable. If the user selects 2 I need to select $SELECTED_TAR2, or if they select 1 I need to select $SELECTED_TAR1 and then do something like this behind the scenes:
Code: cp /home/user/$SELECTED_TAR2 /home/user/backup/$SELECTED_TAR2
I was thinking something like this:
Code: echo "Enter a selection: "
read -e SELECTED_NUMBER
cp /home/user/$SELECTED_TAR$SELECTED_NUMBER /home/user/backup

I've got the following problem: I just noticed that there were just very few notifications about updating the system (usually there are damn many of them in a week) So I opened the update manager and clicked on "refresh list". The following result popped up: p,li{white-space:pre-wrap;}E: Error http://ppa.launchpad.net natty/main/Sources Sources 404 Not Found First I thought, it would be just some kind of server problem, but it didn't stop. The next thing was to research the thread and I even found something. However, the solution suggested didn't work at all. (Things, which might have caused this: I installed the default software center |I'm using Kubuntu, but in this case that fact doesn't matter| and used it. To sum up:
- not able to update the system referring to the launchpad main sources for 11.04
- following error: E: Error http://ppa.launchpad.net natty/main/Sources Sources 404 Not Found It would be great if this was a common issue and I've been simply too stupid to find a proper solution. So you could just post the link.

I am running Jolicloud on my netbook (which I believe is an Ubuntu derivative) and I am tried to enter the getdeb.net sources in so I can install apps from the website through APT but
1) When I entered the sources into sources.list and then the key into Terminal and then went to the site and tried to install an app it didn't work.
2) I deleted the line of code in the sources.list file and when I opened terminal and entered "sudo apt-get update" it showed the list of sources, but on the list were Getdeb.net sources.
My question is how do I delete sources that aren't in /etc/apt/sources.list ?

I recently got a real fancy unidirectional microphone, but when I go and use it, something strange happens. The mic is a mono mic, but when I record something, it appears to think it's stereo. Instead of having the same thing on both channels, it puts it all in the left channel, and silence on the right channel.
I tried fiddling with alsamixer. In capture (F4), adjusting the "Capture" device has an effect. However, it doesn't do anything useful. Lowering the right channel to zero does nothing, lowering the left channel to zero creates silence, and disabling the right channel creates silence.
In my System>Preferences>Sound (or pavucontrol, or what-have-you), there are "Analog Stereo Input" and "Analog Stereo Duplex" options there, but no "Analog Mono Input" or "Analog Stereo Output + Analog Mono Input" options (the latter being ideal).
Something interesting, though, if I do this:
Code:
arecord -r 96000 -D pulse -c 1 -vv -V mono /dev/null
it works correctly and outputs on both channels. But if I do
Code:
arecord -r 96000 -D pulse -c 2 -vv -V stereo /dev/null
then it's back to the same behavior. The VU meter on the second command shows the left channel going up and down as I make noise, but the right one always at zero.
The machine does have a crap internal mic built in to the screen bezel. If I do either of the above commands, they both work correctly. The stereo VU shows the same activity for both channels.
The machine is a Eee 1015PED, which has Intel integrated sound. Something probably insignificant is that the mic has a 1/4 inch mono plug, and to get it to plug into the Eee, I needed to get a 1/4 female to 1/8 male adapter. The mic's 1/4 plug is mono (duh) and therefore two-conductor, but the adapter I got is stereo, or three conductor (L, R, GND). I don't know if this is tripping something in hardware to tell it it's stereo or something.
I tried the mic on my desktop, which has a SB Audigy 4 (the non-pro flavor) and that has the "Analog Mono Input" function, so that works fine. Is there some way to turn this stereo input into mono input?

I was looking at my logs and was wondering what the easiest way to go about removing certain things from being logged.
For instance I noticed by default Ubuntu seems to log all network traffic and handshakes with wifi etc and I would like to keep such out of my logs.

am working an a worksheet where I need to lookup id in an other worksheet.The script works as long as I am staying on the same row. When pressing key up or enter the corresponmding lookup information is not placed on the very same row.In short terms, I want the lookup data to be enterd on the same row no matter what key I am pressing.
The script:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim cfind As Range
On Error Resume Next
If Intersect(Target, Range("A:A")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
thisRow = ActiveCell.Row
[code].....
This example is set to Enter key procedure. So when the enter key is pressed, my current row will change by 1 so I have to compensate for that. All I want is that the data will be correctly enterd no matter what key I am pressing.

I would like to use Japanese kana (hiragana, katakana, kanji) on Ubuntu but everything that I've tried to get it set up and running isn't working. The Spanish that I have set up is working perfectly so far.
I've read, the SCIM input program should start up automatically when loading a program, it doesn't. When I have it loaded I cannot seem to get the input working.

I need to search a bunch of files in a specific folder for a specific number and add all the numbers together to a total sum. I use Rsync everyday, everytime I run rsync i get a logfile (rsync output) witch contains the textstring "Total bytes sent: xxxxxx".
The "xxxxx" can vary in lenght. I need to extract the "xxxxxx" from each file and add the numbers together to a total size over a week or a month. Is this possible? And I wish to only use bash. One way of doing stuff at a time my friends .

my system I want user1 and only user1 to be able to mount and unmount a specific partition, this partition contains backups and is usually mounted read only, needs to be temporarily mounted read/write by user1 while doing the backup.user1 is an unprivileged user. I've read that the user option will let any user mount the file-system (and only that user can then subsequently unmount it) and that the users option allows any user to mount or unmount the file-system.I also found this in mount's man pageQuote:The owner option is similar to the user option, with the restriction that the user must be the owner of the special file. This may be useful e.g. for /dev/fd if a login script makes the console user owner of this device. The group option is similar, with the restriction that the user must be member of the group of the special file.So it looks like I'd need a login script for that user to make the user owner of the device file (/dev/voiceserv/backup in this case)

I'm trying to configure our mail server to block email from a specific sender reaching a specific recipient. In other words, if one of our employees is getting harassed by a 'stalker', how would one go about blocking, at the MTA (Sendmail) level, a specific sender email address from reaching a particular users inbox? We do not want to capture the email - simply block it before it consumes server resources.The Sendmail server (MTA) is a front end to our Exchange server so no user accounts exist on the Linux server. We simply use it as a SPAM and Virus scanner then forward clean email to the Exchange server.

I just finished upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 and converting from F-spot to Shotwell, including adding a large number of new photographs (>15 k).
On opening Shotwell today I found that all "tags" and "events", including those from the F-stop imported photos, have disappeared!! (strangely the photo ratings are maintained)
No amount of searching was able to relocate them. The modification date on the photo.db in the .shotwell folder is pre-problem, so I am holding out some hope that the relevant data have not been over-written.
I am not familiar with sql so do not know how to check the db (or restore the correct headers or whatever else is needed).

I want to separate the Apache2 Error log to log certain events in a specified file.
For example:
client denied by server configuration > denied.log
Directory index forbidden by Options directive > forbidden.log
I would like it add it to the logs as the events happen, and like the other logging systems, create new files when the current is full. i.e. denied.log.0
