OpenSUSE :: Can't Press Any Buttons, Neither Is There The Black Bar At The Top?
Sep 20, 2010
I have an EEE PC 1000H with currently XP and openSUSE 11.3 installed. I installed openSUSE 11.3 with the LXDE live CD yesterday and it worked without any troubles. Today after a 2 or 3 boots LXDE is behaving weird. The desktop is at the first moment totaly normal. But If you press ALT + F2 nothing happens. I can't launch any applications anymore except 2 I have a quicklauncher in the task for. (file manager and FF) But if I launch them I can't press any buttons, neither is there the black bar at the top which usually says something like "openSUSE.org - Mozilla Firefox" or so.
The weird thing about this is that I had this problem earlier this week after I installed openSUSE with the normal DVD. After one run or so the DVD was corrupted (don't know why) and I thought that might have caused it. But now since I installed openSUSE 11.3 with 2 DVDs/CDs (both images md5sum checked before burning) I don't know where the problem is.

So I pressed ctrl+alt+F3 and now my whole system is basically one big terminal - black screen and only accepts terminal commands. How do I go back to the 'normal' Ubuntu desktop screen? Rebooting only takes me back to the terminal command page described above. I can access root commands with sudo bash and my password, if fact all terminal commands seem to work. Is there a command I can use to go back to the regular desktop?

He just installed KUbuntu 10.10 (multiboot with Vista).. When he reboots his laptop from Linux, he directly has a black screen (in spite of the "Press F2 for setup" screen and the GRUB menu). So the problem is before GRUB start. The first thing displayed in fact is the login screen. He doesn't have this problem when he reboots from Windows. The "Press F2 for setup" screen and the GRUB menu are normally displayed. It's only when he reboots from Kubuntu. I precise that it's only a display problem because even if the GRUB menu is not displayed I can still navigate with arrow keys and start Linux or Windows by pressing Enter (because I know Linux is at the top of GRUB menu, and Windows at the bottom). Do you have an idea of what could occure with Linux to disable display at boot?

I'm randomly getting 'Continue to wait; or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery...' or something like that at boot ((it flashes very quickly)- If I don't press anything, I'm prompted for my password (I configured it to login with password) and the desktop loads...
I'm using Ultimate Edition 2.6.1 -> Ultimate Edition Home
I was using my 1TB hdd to dual-boot linux, windows, and for storage...Yesterday, I imaged the linux partition, and restored it to an approximately 66GB partition I created on a 150GB hdd...Besides the 66GB partition, the rest of the 150GB hdd is 'unallocated space'... That's when the above message started...Below are screenshots of the fstab and partitions as they are now...

openSuse 11.4 64bit fresh install, KDE 4.6.0. Now I am probably being obtuse, but If I click on the wonderfully named "My Computer" I get, among other things, a display of Disk Information; hard drive partitions and any DVDs or CDs. If I let my mouse cursor alight on any of these, I get a message "Press the right mouse button for more options (such as Mount or Eject)" But if I press the right mouse button, I don't get those options; I get a message "Open in new window, Open in new tab, Open with ..., Create file project with K3b, and Compress ...".

Today, I was downloading some stuff from online. I left for a few minutes and came back to find that someone had hit my loose power cord, causing the computer to restart. When I completed the reboot (It always says "Insert system disk and press enter" after checking CD drives), and had it load OpenSuSE 11.3 Failsafe (Regular won't work for me), it loaded into Teal (BASH, Command Prompt, Kommand, whatever you want to call it). At first, I thought maybe I screwed up and told it to load into that. But, I tried again, and it did the same. I tried using Non-Failsafe, and got the same results. I am able to edit, add, or remove programs from the Linux partition, though.

yesterday installed a fresh OpenSuse 11.2. Since then the confirm buttons (OK / YES / ...) are not working, when clicking (mouse). An keyboard ENTER-press does work.
What is the problem? Is it an OpenSuse bug?

Is there a way (as in there in Windows), for not to group tasks of same application, in one single button in the task manager? so even every instance of one app appears as separate buttons?

I want to make use of extra buttons on my Logitech RX1000 mouse.
For e.g. the zoom button I would like it to show windows on my desktop (ctrl+F9).
I've fired up xev and found out that this is button 8:
Code:
Then I've added to ~/.xbindkeysrc:
Code:
But that doesn't work at all.

I recently upgraded from 11.3 to 11.4 using the "zypper dup"-method, because I have made good experiences with that approach with my last upgrade. However I have some strange visual artifacts throughout the system now. When a button is in its pushed state, then at the left and top edge, where normally a drop-shadow would be drawn, is a white bar, as shown in the picture below.This also applies to progress-bars (for example when starting eclipse but also for all other applications)Also the systems feels slower than usual when switching between applications. Can't tell if this is important, but I have a Nvidia Quadro NVS 160M graphics card with the latest driver (version 260.19.44).

I have a wireless keyboard with touchpad However the position of the mouse buttons is very unconfortable and so I would like to remap the mouse button to some kes on the keyboard.
I would like to use the media keys which are present on the keyboard. They are useless to me since most of the programs that I use have their own keyboard shortcuts for controls such as play, stop etc.
I mapped the keys using xev, and for instance I found that the "play" key mapped to keycode 172
by trying someting like
xmodmap -e "keycode 172 = Pointer_Button1"
nothing happens.

2. how to fix it?

I have just installed openSUSE 11.4 a few days ago, and added nvidia propietary drivers.
After that, buttons that are selected are with two white lines. One on the top, and one on the left. I don't know what is it all about, but I think it may be nvidia's problem.

Ive been using opensuse for a little while now. Recently ran into a problem My favorite mouse broke, so i went out and got a travel one. It has a very toucht third button under the scroll wheel. Apperently this button is to paste, but every time i scroll, it makes my life miserable, especially when im reading a lengthy page in firefox. I cannot figure out how to program the buttons. Ive googled, and seen some programs that MIGHT help. but this seems to be something that is built in to the OS. The mouse yast plugin doesnt give you the choice of shuting off the third button, or even reassigning it. I want the paste functionality GONE from my **** mouse

Upon logging into kde 4.4 the left mouse button (3 button usb mouse) becomes unresponsive on certain windows. For instance the toolbar may still respond to left-click while other windows on the desktop do not register it. However more and more windows/panels become unresponsive rather quickly. The same happens for right-click sometimes but far less often. Some functionality can be recovered by re-plugging the mouse.
Logging out and logging back in solves the problem until the next reboot. I have tried different users and wiping the .kde and .kde4 folders. The problem persists. I can stil work by relogging every time I turn on my computer but it does waste a lot of time so if there are any ideas I'd apreciate it. KDE 4.4 release 3 (There seems to be no updates in YAST available)

I am trying to get the forward and back buttons on my Logitech Surface mouse working in openSUSE 11.2 running as a guest in VMware Workstation 7 on a Win7 x64 Pro host. I have read many places about editing the xorg.conf file and have done so successfully under Ubuntu in the past. I have successfully installed VMware Tools and everything is working as expected except the side buttons on the mouse. I have no current xorg.conf file

Most of the issues involve disconnect after a login and mouse settings. It does work fine for me, but after a few days of being up and using vnc on and off it will still connect, but show the black/white mesh screen with the big black X cursor, then if I wait 30 seconds it disconnects.
Heres the log when this problem starts happening
If I restart the computer it works again, however this message is still shown in the logs:
So I guess the above message is trivial to the problem? The thing is, I am not using KDE4, I installed 3.5, and in sysconfig my display manager is set to KDM not KDM4.
I'm using VNC through remote administration, multiple users will be accessing this from the network and need to get to the login screen.

For some time now, that the "Run command" window (which pops up when clicking alt+F2) doesn't show the 4 buttons, it shows just an empty black rectangle.
I have another system which is installed with the same kde4.4.5 rpms and I don't have this problem. I went over kde configuration files and can't find the cause.
Attached is a snapshot or the problem :
I recently noticed that when pressing alt+tab to scroll between windows, only the icon of the window is highlighted when in the 2nd machine there is a bounding box which the surrounds the icon and the text.

how to possible to configure the buttons on my scanner (HP Scanjet 3300C - it's an old one) to actually perform the tasks they're intended to do. The scanner itself works absolutely perfect despite its age (over a decade old).. however it has two physical buttons with a scanner and a printer icon on it. Now I don't particularly care much for the scan button, but it would be awesome if the print button automatically send whatever it's scanning to the printer as soon as it's done.
The only two things I could find that seem to be written with the idea to fulfill this role are KScannerButtons and scanbuttond. Both haven't received an update in years (2006 and 2007) and only seem to be good for spitting out an error. I also tried installing hp-lib, but it doesn't even recognize the printer (I'm guessing HP doesn't support hardware that old). Not sure if it would get me further even it was recognized.

A recent OpenSuse 11.2 update is causing one to view a black screen with an X in the Tight VNC window of the remote machine when connecting with VNC Viewer (i.e. vncviewer IPAddress:1 ) in a console. I have two OpenSuse11.2 machines (one with no updates since 11/2009) and one I updated this week (12/16/2009). I am able to successfully use Tight VNC to connect to the OpenSuse11.2 machine without recent updates but get a black screen when attemmpting to connect to a recently updated OpenSuse 11.2 machine. My source machine is also a OpenSuse11.2 desktop with current updates.

I've been running KDE4 with Suse 11.2 for about a year or so now, with no problems. Yesterday, the background to my screen suddenly went black. Open windows were unaffected, but I could see my theme, the task manager, etc. I couldn't open any programs other than the ones already open (and ones that they launch).This problem was system-wide, in that it affects all accounts on my machine.I thought I'd solved the problem after discussion with someone by email, by forcing KDE to recreate itself. I did this by
mv ~/.kde4 ~/oldkde4
then relogging. This, in itself, seemed to make matters worse, so I went
mv ~/.kde4 ~/newkde4
mv ~/oldkde4 ~/.kde4
and relogged. To my surprise, everything worked thereafter for a few hours.
I think this was coincidence, because, after a few hours, the same thing happened and the "fix" didn't work anymore.I checked .xsession-error and it says
/etc/X11/xim: Checking whether an input method should be started.
sourcing /etc/sysconfig/language to get the value of INPUT_METHOD
INPUT_METHOD is not set or empty (no user selected input method).
[code]....

I quite haven't figured out exactly when this happens, but it seems it happens after I connect an external monitor after logging, instead of logging in with the monitor plugged in. What happens is that every new window including popups become black. It seems if I turn off the desktop effects it goes away. I'm using T500 with intel graphics, and tumbleweed with KDE 4.7

I've got a problem with my openSuse 11.3 for a few days. This is my first Linux so i'm kind of rookie.OK, let's start.I installed it something like 1 month ago and everything looks good until now. When I turn on my PC and try to login (deskop mode) login bar goes from 30% to 50% and then appears a black screen, nothing more, just deep black (cannot type anything etc.) I use GRUB - Windows, opensuse deskop mode and failsafe mode. Failsafe mode works good, but I have no idea what should I do because I didn't change anything. I even done a reinstall of OpenSuse and after one day I've got the same black screen.Someting wrong with grapfic card drivers? (ati 4850, downloaded from ati page, works good for 1 month) maybe some kind of new update which was installed automatically?
