OpenSUSE :: Kgpg And Encrypt Clipboard Does Not Work
May 14, 2009
I highlight text in an email, "cut". Right click KGPG, encrypt clipboard, select my own public key, go back to email and "paste" and it appears in plaintext! WTF I tested it in kwrite too. Wrote the text "hello world", highlight, cut, encrypt clipboard, select my public key, paste, "hello world" appears! WTFx2
I'm trying to write a GUI text encryption application. I wrote the encryption system in a No GUI application like this::
[Code]...
Now I'm trying to write a GUI version, using the same algorithm. Here goes a rough image of my main window code. If you scroll down you'll observe a coloured part. As you see, the text in the first textbox gets copied into clipboard. That is the part where my encryption system should encrypt the data in the clipboard, and copy it again, and later on the new data will be pasted. How am I supposed to write that? If I have to use another signal, what is the receiver of that signal?
Installed 11.04 a couple of months ago and I can't seem to get kgpg to run at all. It installs fine and shows it self on the Accessoriess menu, but after being clicked, does nothing. Tried un/reinstall, no joy
I loaded off DVD for Kgpg, but click on it and have the bouncing lock key, then disappears from menu bar. De-installed and Re-installed several times. Will not work properly.
I created a key pair in kgpg on suse 11.1 kgpg version 1.2.2. i am able to encrypted and decrypted files on the pc with no issues. I then exported the public key for the key pair created above, placed on flash drive and moved to my laptop running suse 11.2.
i open kgpg version 2.2.2 and imported the key, all was good. I then passed the file encrypted on 11.1 to the 11.2 laptop and with kgpg tried to decrypt the file, but the decrypting failed. The details shows the public key i just imported and then it says gpg:decryption failed: No Secret key.
I am not clear why on it is failing and if i missed a step some where along the way.
I'd like to have a Linux machine run what Windows users typically call a clipboard as a network service on my small LAN (about 10 machines). More specifically I am looking to have Linux run the clipboard service centrally in the LAN with both Windows and *nix machines able to connect to it as opposed to the peer-to-peer sync model that I am seeing in almost all of the applications I've discovered thus far.
I think that the kde4.x clipboard is mishandled. using any method of copy from a kde app causes the data to be cut instead of copied when pasted into another app (even non kde). Non kde apps behave as expected.
open gedit and kwrite. type K in kwrite. Type G in gedit
highlight the G in Gedit (select copy or use primary) middle click or paste into kwrite. fine - there's a G in both editors.
Reverse, copy the K from kwrite and copy paste it into gedit. when you go back to kwrite the K is gone! Evil Magic. what's up? Can't wait until kde 5 or 6 when t gets to be usable again.
I was asked today if it was possible to encrypt a CDROM just as you would a disk - and I drew a blank. The question came up discussing a database we maintain with a lot of the organizations financial info plus ersonal membership data. Can I create and mount an encrypted CD? What are the performance effects? Is it a viable one to two year archive medium? The plan is to store period off-site backups and I can't get a grasp on the feasibility.
How to remove the auto tab ? After i wrote ( { )In the terminal there is auto tab .. this looks handy at first but :When i copy paste from universal clipboard it keeps tabbing making the scripts very long .. Is there a setting how to remove it
what i want to do is encrypt my entire home folder or at least make a new private folder where everything is encrypted. Previously i had tried to use truecrypt but it didnt work well on opensuse 11.2. Anyone here have issues with truecrypt with opensuse 11.2?
I formatted a external 160 GB HDD (Lacie) with EXT3 and encrypted. The formatting went perfect. When I stick it into the USB slot, it is recognized and mounted by HAL. Hal asks me the password and then everything seems ok. But I have no write access. Only root has. I would like to use it to store my user data, externally, but encrypted. How can I set the write permission to make this possible? Why does HAL attribute the write permissions to root, even if I have given the password as user?
I am looking for something like Ubuntu does (or claims to do :-) ): encrypt the home folder so that, once done, you can even forget that it ever was encrypted.
I have had a quick look to encfs, and to the KDE "right click menu"; but, when dealing with folders, it seems that they pack them into a single file and then encrypts it (if I have correctly understood).
So, what is the way of encrypting the home folder (and subfolders) as Ubuntu does? (and so that you can completely forget afterwards)
I'm NOT asking about clipboard managers like Glipper, Parcellite, GNOME itself should let configure clipboard behaviour: package "gnome-settings-daemon" includes "Clipboard management" - this is installed and running by default.[URL].. But - where I can make settings of clipboard ?
I have thing, in "gnome-control-center" - there are many applets, corresponding to gnome-settings-daemon plugins. But I can't find no clipboard setting. Where is it ? I remember, in past (maybe it was in KDE desktop (?)) I could set, if my X selections should be added to "ctrl-c" list and vice versa or not. This is what I need.
But once again - I do not ask about installing Clipboard managers. I'm asking - where is standard GNOME clipboard setting in Lucid.
Where in God's green earth does ubuntu put screenshots/clipboard related material? I've made like 5 screenshots but am totally unable to locate them. Great Scott! In windows I know where there at!
I make use of the clipboard manager a lot, and have just replaced Clipman with ClipIt on my Debian 8 (Xfce) host. I also have a Debian 8 (and 7) VM with Xfce, but without xfce4-panel, so no taskbar. Is there a way to make use of a clipboard manager with no panel/taskbar? I have ClipIt installed on the 8 VM, but do not have obvious access to it. It's the last hurdle to eliminating the taskbar/panel for me...... meaning eliminating the taskbar, yet keeping all the functionality.
I started using Xfce without xfce4-panel, when I decided that Openbox was a little too spartan for me...... at least without spending a lot of time to customize it, which I probably will do eventually, but for now, I am staying with Xfce.
I want to use system clipboard of vim in the termal of X mode, not text mode. But when I type reg command in vim, I haven't seen the system clipboard, And I can't copy the content of vim to other applications, such as firefox. My version is as follows : Fedora release 12 (Constantine) I have installed vim rpms as follows:
Quote: rpm -qa |grep vim vim-enhanced-7.2.315-1.fc12.i686 vim-minimal-7.2.315-1.fc12.i686 vim-common-7.2.315-1.fc12.i686 vim-X11-7.2.315-1.fc12.i686
I have a fully patched newly installed F15 x86_64 installation, with gnome-rdp used to run rdesktop to various Windows servers I manage. (rdesktop-1.6.0-11.fc15.x86_64) On F14, and most other Fedora's if I copied something on the Linux clipboard, I could paste it to the Windows server I was remote desktopped onto, and vice versa. However, on this installation this has ceased. The clipboard is no longer shared.
On a whim, I tested and found that when run from the command line as rdesktop -g 1024x768 hostname that the clipboard works. Thus the fault is with GNOME-RDP. gnome-rdp-0.2.3-8.fc15.x86_64
Now this is a bit odd but I have seen it happen before: after rebooting the clipboard icon is missing from the system tray. I am using KDE 4.* and karmic on the relevant machine. Any simple way to get it back without rebooting?
Seems a utility called "xclip" and "xsel" are required, but is there anything simpler, that doesn't require extra utilities, along the lines ofCode:cat foo.txt > clipboardThis would for GNOME.
I want to copy a highlighted field to the clipboard (not the copy/paste within vim but the clipboard that can be pasted outside of vim). I can do this by using the mouse but using the visual command (v) and then the yank command (y) does not do that.Is there a way to do this without the mouse?
I would like to know what clipboard managers are out there that are able to run independently of any system tray, or what have you, such as gnome panel. Ideally ones providing full keyboard navigation, that is for calling up the program and selecting from it.
I have tried anamnesis, which can operate as a stand alone program and does appear to offer some keyboard navigation, and whilst it wasnt as attractive or discreet as programs like glipper, parcellite, clipman, etc, i was willing to go with it. However, keyboard navigation is really problematic (maybe to do with how i have set it up, though i doubt it as its installation is so basic), so i have had to abandon it for now. Am i using it wrong? Anyone else managed to select from it with the keyboard? I think iv googled this to death, but perhaps someone knows of something all the same.
I ask as i am using Openbox and am considering ditching gnome panel, as it is slow loading at boot and wont fully hide (one pixel!). Aside from that a panel icon is unnecessary in my case, as i am more keyboard focused, and it also wastes space that could be better used for the graphical windows list, especially when your rocking a single panel.
I'm running a Windows 7 guest using Virtual Machine Manager to launch my "console" to the VM. I believe it uses VNC to connect to the console. I'd like to have clipboard synchronization so I can copy from the host and paste to the guest.
I would like to set Y and P to copy and paste directly to the system clipboard instead of vim buffer. I don't want any additional commands. Just the normal ones, but they should copy to and paste from the system clipboard and bypass the vim buffer.
Using the Screenshot in CompizConfig Settings Manager, can I copy the clipped screenshot to the clipboard right away? When I used <Super>Button1 to clip the screenshot, the image gets saved on the desktop and not on the clipboard. I would like to save some time and keystrokes by automating the "copy to the clipboard" I am using Ubuntu 10.04
I want to know how to access the clipboard in Open Office. I want to get to the things that I have put there by cutting or copying them so that I can re-paste. how to cut and paste one item at a time (and doesn't even mention copying!)
Anyone know of a clipboard manager that doesn't use the panel?
I want to access all my copys without the panel. I've looked into Glippy and Pastie. By playing with them for five minutes it doesn't seems possible for them.
