After a fresh install 11.3 copy the saves .xbindkeysrc to /home/username compiled and installed xbindkeys again this is the link to XBindKeys No keys working I had to remove the keyboard definition in xorg.conf I had to rescan all the keys because they have a DIFFERENT VALUE

Basically, my middle mouse button (button 2) wasn't being detected by mumble when I was trying to enter a ptt key. The button itself was bound to do some weird copy-paste function, so I figured maybe that's why, so I rebound it to Shift+Right arrow using xbindkeys and xvkbd. I then went into mumble and it detected this no problem, however due to the xbindkeys config, when I press the middle mouse button it only does the bound function once.... i.e. I press it, it sends Shift+Right arrow to the X serv, but then stops, which is obviously useless for a push-to-talk button.
So, really what I am asking is, how should I go about sorting this? Is xbindkeys able to translate a keypress in sync with the mouse button (i.e if I hold the mouse button, it holds down the keys bound to it) or am I going down the wrong route and there is a better way to get middle mouse as my push to talk button on mumble. Perhaps a different keybind software?
Just had a weird problem in konsole at the command line. Some of my keys are not recognized as if they are not being pushed. They work fine in other applications and work fine if I push the Shift key with it and capitalize the letter. Some of the keys are the c, g, r, w, 3, 8,and 9. C, G, R, W, #, *, and ( all work so I do not believe it is hardware as I am using this computer to type this message. It is just at the command line. I don't know what I did to make this happen or how to fix it. I am using openSUSE 11.3 with the KDE 4.4.4 release 3. I tried reinstalling xterm and konsole from yast but it did not fix it.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI've been making some progress with my new Dell Inspiron n5110 and the OpenSUSE 11.4. After searching through the net I found some drivers to get my laptop going. Now I'm facing the following problem: I want to adjust the audio volume using a special key combination on my laptop(fn+F11 to rise, fn+F12 to lower, and another key that works as mute). Although the sound itself works fine, when I use these keys the have no effect on the volume. It stays exactly the same. Some I ask myself are the drivers for the sound card installed? In "Playback Devices" there are two devices: Internal audio analog stereo(which is the one that is working) and GF108 High Definition Audio Controller Digital Stereo(HDMI). The lsusb provides:

So I searched for some Realtek drivers and came up with nothing. If you have any idea on how to get my audio running or how to make the special keys working, please let me know!
I want the "search" button on my mouse to be a middle click. In my .xbindkeysrc file I have
Code: "xte 'keydown Control_L' 'mouseclick 1' 'keyup Control_L'"# m:225 but it still just selects the google search bar on firefox. Using xev, it shows Code: KeyRelease event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x2600001, root 0xb4, subw 0x0, time 166414200, (1135,637), root:(1139,660), state 0x10, keycode 225 (keysym 0x1008ff1b, XF86Search), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False that means its seen as a keyboard button 225 right?
I tried doing something like Code: "konqueror" m:225 to test it, but nothing. Something is overwriting its function. In Configure Desktop > Keyboard & Mouse > shortcut stuff, and didn't see the search button used anywhere.
I found in my xorg.0.log the the xorg ATI driver is failing ALL options.

I'm having a problem with xbindkeys giving the wrong mapping information, hence I can't get it work at all when trying new mappings from this machine. From another computer, I have some definitions for xbindkeys (made with xbindkeys-config). These key codes work correctly on this computer I'm having difficulty with. From the config file for example:

I just bought an Apple (intl.) keyboard because of its stylish look and weight but I can't figure out how to map keys to get certain functions that I'm used to working.
Particularly Alt+Ctl+F1~6 when wanting to switch to regular terminal and print screen.
Is there a tutorial out there that explains how to map keys?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two machines at home. I am trying to setup the ssh server on the server machine so I can connect from the client machine with no password (keys authentication).Well, that shouldn't have been too hard, but the thing is the server user account I want to be able to connect to with keys auth has no password (that is actually the reason I want to setup keys auth). I have done everything in this guide (URL...), both alternatives, but with no success, because at some time I have to ssh the server to the user account that has no password (either with scp or ssh-copy-id) and it fails.
My question is: since I have root access on the server machine, can't I copy manually the public key from the client to the server? (doing manually what ssh-copy-id actually does).Or, maybe there is another way, to change the password on the passwordless account. I have tried with # su <acct>, then passwd, but it doesn't work (asks me for the old password). I was thinking about editing /etc/shadow manually, and inserting the hash in the password field for that account (it currently has an ! ). Would that work?
My setup is Asus EEE701SD running Maverick installed off the Live CD about 6 weeks ago. Everything worked fine until yesterday when I lost most of the keys, but not Ctrl, Alt, Home symbol, Menu symbol.
Keyboard is physically fine as it works correctly in SystemrecCD and when I boot into a recovery root shell, but not when I am running Xorg under Maverick. Keyboard layout is default US (I an in Australia). I tried using Onboard, but even that wouldn't input keystrokes into anything. I tried going in with VNC and that wouldn't work either. It seems this might be an Xorg problem, but why would it happen suddenly, seemingly without any provocation; obviously something has changed, but what... I have removed and reinstalled xserver--xorg using apt-get in a root shell and have also run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but nothing has changed.
I have two computers running Debian Squeeze. I'm trying to set up the public keys for them so that I don't need to use passwords to log in. As far as I know, I did the same thing for both, however only one is working.Here is the connection output for eachBroken:

I've read the how-tos (thank you oldcpu!) and wikis about how xorg.conf take precedence over the section configuration files in etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/, if it exist. I also understand that the xorg.conf can be partial. If it is missing some sections, these will be taken from the corresponding xorg.conf.d section config file. Currently I'm using a xorg.conf generated by nvidia-settings in one of my home machines, due to a dual-monitor setup. After generating xorg.conf, the device sections are:
in xorg.conf:
Code:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device0"
Driver "nvidia"
[code]....
My question is if the Option "UseCompositeWrapper" "True" will be used or not. In other words, if a section exist in xorg.conf then it's correspondent in xorg.conf.d/ will be completely ignored *or* only the lines in xorg.conf.d/ that already exist in xorg.conf will be ignored?
Today I did the following:
Code: Select allapt-get upgradeapt-get dist-upgrade
After a reboot the multimedia keys are not working anymore.
Also Code: Select allxev doesn't give any output when pressing the multimedia keys.
I've also checked the packages that were upgraded, but none seems (to me) to be changing anything in regard to key events.
Code: Select allStart-Date: 2015-07-29 09:17:10
Commandline: apt-get upgrade -V
Upgrade: libasan1:amd64 (4.9.3-2, 4.9.3-3), gdisk:amd64 (1.0.0-2, 1.0.0-3), cpp-4.9:amd64 (4.9.3-2, 4.9.3-3), libstdc++-4.9-dev:amd64 (4.9.3-2, 4.9.3-3), libpanel-applet0:amd64 (3.16.1-3, 3.16.1-4), python-debianbts:amd64 (1.12, 1.13),

I'm on the Debian testing branch. Initially I used xfce, but am now using i3.
Why there are no events after the upgrade? Maybe I should downgrade some of the above packages?
I just installed fc12 on a Dell Latitude E6500 laptop. Everything is fine except that my Left and Up arrow keys are inactive so .e.g. I can't review bash history.
In the "keyboard preferences" GUI the keyboard model is "evdev-managed keyboard" (although I have also tried without success the model specific for this laptop) and the only layout is "USA".
Have done an update of all packages without fixing this problem.
control keys aren't working most of the time in Open Office. I can copy, cut and paste with the mouse, but Control+C/X/V/Z is not working at all. I also use intellij idea, there I have the same problem, but I can use its own defined control+alt+space. I've tried Abiword, the control keys worked at the begging but then after a while when I used control+something(C/X/V/Z), it always selected everything. Besides that, the control keys are working perfectly in nautilus, terminal, firefox, chrome, gedit. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10.
