OpenSUSE Wireless :: WPA Password With Accents Won't Work

Sep 15, 2011

I've just found out this isn't OpenSuse exclusive, but I noticed it when setting up OpenSuse 11.4 on a laptop.The WPA password in question has an accented vowel (ã) which is making both my Linux laptops (a KDE and a Gnome one) fail to connect. My wife's Win7 laptop has no problem with it. If I change the letter from ã to a, then they connect.Is there a way to configure the Networkmanagers so that they accept these special characters?

OpenSUSE :: Keyboard: Unexpectedly Accents Don't Work?

Dec 8, 2010

Since a couple of weeks ago, almost everyday (and some days more than once) my keyboard does strange things. Mainly, the accents (etc) don't work (they come 'a'e'o), and that's important for me.It happens unexpectedly; at least I have not been able to put it in relation with something I did (anyway, it had never happened before).In Personal settings -> Input Devices -> keyboard everything looks normal, nothing changed.I don't know where to begin to find a solution. The only thing I can do now is to reboot.

Debian :: Accents Just Work When Logged As Root

Mar 10, 2011

I can use the accents (tilde, acute, ...) normally when I am the root, but when I log into my user account they re not recognized in most applications (opera, emacs, amsn, python idle,...) although they work in other applications (terminal, vim, iceweasel...). I guess that would have a simple solution. Something is right in the root account and wrong in my user account, but I cant figure it out. My layout is USA International (with dead keys).

Ubuntu :: File Names With Spanish Accents / Copied From Windows And Don't Work

May 18, 2010

we have two work computers, one with windows and one with Ubuntu. We are going to change the windows computer to Ubuntu, and put them on a network. So we copied all of the documents on the windows computer to the Ubuntu computer as a first step. The problem is, with the documents and folders that we copied, if they have spanish accents we can't open them.I tried looking on the forum but I didn't find anything about exactly that problem. One post suggested that the "locale" might be the problem, but our locale seems to be the correct one for our country and language.

The accents show up as white question marks inside a black diamond. If I open a file inside a folder with an accent, or a file with an accent, it tells me that the file doesn't exist.But when I change the name of the containing folder or the file, and replace the question marks with accents, I can open the folders and files.But we have lots and lots of documents, and it would take a really long time to change the name of all of the folders and files. How can I fix all of them at the same time?

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Wireless On Compaq Presario R3000 Doesn't Work

Nov 8, 2010

Sorry for repeating the same old complaint but there doesn't seem to be a common fix: Wireless does not work on my Presario R3000 although SUSE 11.x lists the hardware in the Hardware Information list and the hardware is turned on. Network Manager doesn't display any wireless networks in SUSE while Win 7 can see 4 of them on the same machine. Ubuntu has no problem either

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Wireless Must Be On During Boot Or It Will Not Work

May 11, 2010

I've just upgraded from openSUSE 11.2 to 11.3. In 11.2 everything worked fine: I've booted my laptop, logged in and turn my wireless card on using the hardware wireless button, the KDE Wallet opened up, I inserted the password and voil�, wireless connection was on.But after upgrading from 11.3, it doesn't work like that anymore. I need to have the hardware wireless button pressed to on during boot, otherwise Network Manager will not work. And yes, I do check the "Enabled wireless" option, but it doesn't work. When I tried to check it out, I found out that the wireless "Scan" button that scans and displays the available wireless connections shows nothing.So, if I forget to put the wireless on for boot, I must restart and put it on. I've tried log off and log on, and restarting some network services, but neither worked.I have an Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG, as showed below, and I'm posting this message using it.

Result of /sbin/lspci:

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Cannot Connect To AP - Cant Get Wireless To Work

Jun 22, 2010

Suse on an (old even) laptop is even more fun that it is on a desktop. BUT, I still cant get my wireless to work! I have the Encore ENUWI-N3 USB adaptor. Suse sucessfully detects my USB device, recognize its a Wireless lan network adapter, installs it as such (gives it its driver) and adds my wireless menu under network manager. (it gives it the rt2x00) I can enable / disable the USB device from there (its light corroborates that.

So all in all, suse installs my wireless. But I CANNOT find any AP when I scan. Under the "scan" tool (under connec to wireless > A wireless network ect ect) I find no APs. Adding the SSID of the AP manually is of no help either. And the command sudo /usr/sbin/iwlist scan merely gives - "wlan1 Scan completed" and nothing else. Check ifconfig - not a frame sent/received.

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Intel 4965 Doesn't Work On OpenSuse 11.2

May 6, 2010

I upgraded to OpenSuse 11.2 and just about the only thing that doesn't work is my wireless internet. From my research, I should be using the iwl4965 or iwlwifi driver; however my system seems to be running iwlagn. I have no idea how to switch it as neither of the correct drivers can be found in my yast, and I've failed to find any information about this on the Intel® Wireless WiFi Link drivers for Linux* website.

Software :: Can't Get Certain French Accents In TTY Console

Oct 30, 2010

I'm trying to get all french accents to work in gentoo, so far everything works fine when in X/gnome, i type "setxkbmap ca" to load the french canadian keys and i'm able to type etc... however when I switch to TTY console mode (ctrl-alt-F2 for example), i am only able to obtain and none of the others like etc...

I know that in TTY the command loadkeys is responsible for the character set and does not affect gnome in X which leads me to believe I need to fiddle with loadkeys command, however I tried all instances of the french keymaps found in /usr/share/keymaps/i386/ by issuing "loadkeys fr","loadkeys fr-latin1", etc.. I tried them all, one of them was able to give me the accents I'm missing but didnt correspond to the keys on my keyboard (microsoft wired 500 series)..

my locales are set according to the gentoo localisation guide, echo $LANG outputs en_US.UTF-8 because I wish to keep my system prompts in english (I also tried setting to to french without success in the accents)

Ubuntu :: Kate Turns Accents Into '?' Or Chinese Ideograms

May 30, 2010

I have a problem with opening files with accents with the kate editor. They are html files written on Windows, and contain the line

HTML Code:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-type" CONTENT="text/html; CHARSET=Windows-1252">

Opening in kate, no matter the encoding, messes up the characters. They turn to (a '?' in a hexagone) or chinese characters!What's the proper procedure to open and save those files properly in kate ?

OpenSUSE Hardware :: BCM43225 With 11.4 - Wireless Did Not Work

Apr 7, 2011

I have a netbook ASPIRE 1830T with BCM43225. I was looking forward for new opensuse 11.4, because my wireless did not work. However it does not work even with new opensuse 11.4 and brcm80211 included (only bluetooth is on). Pages of Drivers - Linux Wireless project still report lot of work to be done.

There is one old thread BCM43224, BCM43225 and BCM4313 installation guide, where some advices are given about similar BCM wireless. However these hints are too advanced for me or do not work at all. how to obtain working drivers in Suse 11.4?

OpenSUSE Wireless :: How Is NetworkManager Supposed To Work?

Jul 20, 2010

I'm finding the NetworkManager applet very confusing.When I start up at a new location I can use the "Connect to Other Network..." menu item to bring up the list of available networks, and I'd expect that by selecting one of these and clicking "Connect", then configuring and clicking OK, I'd get a connection. Instead the dialog just goes away and nothing else happens. Is something broken with NetworkManager, or am I misunderstanding how this is supposed to work?

By switching back and forth between NetworkManager and ifup I'm eventually able to establish a connection to a new access point, but it's been a painful process.I've also encountered a problem reported by others, where when my system fails to suspend/resume properly the /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state has NetworkingEnabled=false and I need to manually edit this before restarting networking... but that's a separate issue, and I can work around it with the manual edit (or just add a startup script to do this automatically).
