xterm is scanning lines one by one.It takes time.I did jumpScroll: true ,but it results same. But rxvt is better comparing this. Where would i get the global configuration file for rxvt and xterm?
Start xpdf or gv. Click an xterm to be active and slide it over xpdf/gv. Vertical lines from xpdf/gv under the xterm stick to the xterm window above and make it unreadable.
The problem does NOT show with KDE default settings with display effects on but does show in fvwm, xfce etc, and in KDE without effects.
On a system with a Sandy Bridge integrated graphics (i5-2400) the problem went away by downgrading to xf86-video-intel-2.13.0. But it was not enough for another system with 945G which needed downgrading to xf86-video-intel-2.12.0.
I have RAR archive including some files using Russian file names and I?m unable to display them properly in xterm window in my Slackware 13.1. Instead of the Cyrillic letters I see questions marks, for example ??.txt?.I tried four methods:
(This assumes you didn't already have a ~/ffbug directory, and you have firefox 3.5.6 installed -- the prior firefox id not have this problem) What you will probably see is firefox trying to display a listing of the ~/ffbug directory, but instead showing an error message: XML Parsing Error: not well-formed. I posted this in the mozillazine forum, where it got read 20 times, but no response.
Just can't resize xterm or any windows such as firefox. In xterm it seems using the button in the up-right corner could resize the window's width, not height.
I'm trying to turn on the system bell (pc speaker) in xterm. I have the bell working in console (text mode, not under X), and with X running, even firefox can use the pc speaker (it beeps, when I enter a search term which is not found). Only xterm doesn't seem to work.
Here is my xterm config, and the xset command I'm trying to use to turn the bell on: -------###-------- xterm*renderFont: true xterm*faceName: Terminus xterm*faceSize: 12
xterm*background: black xterm*foreground: white !xterm*highlightColor: red xterm*charClass: 46-47:48
xterm*visualBell: false -------###-------- xset b on xset bell 100 1000 1000 -------###--------
If I run xterm with the +vb option, it doesn't help either (I'm testing it with printf "a"). What am I missing? How can I make xterm use my pc speaker as bell?
Just upgrading to 13.0, and one thing I had in KDE 3.5 was a larger (normal) sized xterm, and a smaller sized one. The small sized ones are handy for CL scripts and don't chew up as much screen-estate.
I know I can change defaults in .xinitrc, but I don't know how to make a widget for the small xterm.
I'm having a problem with vim and xterm. When I open a file and press any key, the colour scheme changes slightly. This doesn't happen if I run a 256-colour xterm (export TERM='xterm-256color') but if TERM is set to 'xterm' (the default) I see the colour change. Setting TERM='xterm-256color' in my ~/.bashrc is a "solution", but I'd rather not have to do that since it's never been necessary in the past (e.g., on 13.1) and I don't use any 256-color schemes for vim (usually just the default or possibly "delek"). It doesn't happen with rxvt or with Xfce's terminal. I've tried compiling some other versions of xterm but they either exhibit the same behaviour or don't build. I have tried running without any ~/.vimrc file just to be sure it wasn't one of my settings and I've also tried the sample file at /usr/share/vim/vimrc; the effect is the same.
I have the following line in my .Xresources, and it only works when I'm not running KDE:
Code: XTerm*reverseVideo: true When I start up XTerm in Xfce, TWM, or any other window manager, I get the expected black background. When I launch XTerm in KDE, I get a white background, meaning that the reverseVideo setting is not taking effect. When I'm in KDE, launching XTerm with -rv does give me an XTerm with a black background. Obviously, having to add this switch every time I launch an XTerm in KDE is suboptimal, no matter how you try to automate it. Manually running xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources and then launching XTerm immediately afterwards does not make a difference.
If you're wondering why this is a concern, it's because all 256-color vim color schemes (xoria256, desert256, inkpot) require reverseVideo to be set so that XTerm launches with a black background. You get a black-on-black cursor otherwise.
I've read about this. Everyone says to use ~/.Xresources or ~/.Xdefaults, and it doesn't work for me. It doesn't do anything at all, in fact. I'm trying to use this:
Code:
XTerm*background: black XTerm*foreground: white
In the ~/.X* files, it won't work. I read that another way of doing it is using
Code:
xrdb -merge .x_settings_file
This will work for me. It's the only thing I can get to work. But when I restart, it will have to be done again. I'm using Slackware 12.2.
Printing (as user) is fine and scanning as root works too, but scanning as user doesn't work. I've had similar problems in the past, but there's something else going on now.This thread doesn't help either.Yes, I'm a member of the scanner group, and like said before: as root everything works fine.
How to change light green text color to dark green of xterm? The xterm background is white. Light green texts are not good for white background. I don't want to change the xterm background.
I installed squeeze on my eeepc 1015ped and downloaded the correct firmware-brcm80211 drivers but every time I scan for my network using iwconfig wlan0 scan or wicd, my computer completely freezes. I previously had a solid install running xmonad, and wicd was working like a charm (using the same broadcom driver) but i tinkered too much with it and decided to do a fresh install. I haven't quite run into a problem like this before.
So when I upgraded to Slack64 13.1 on my asus MB homebrewed desktop and Slack 13.1 on my compaq presario a900 laptop, I started having issues with the xterm title (in Terminal--not Konsole) being too dynamic. By "too dynamic" I mean that I can't actually change the title. The dynamic title (from my .bashrc) is basically just pwd. Whenever I try to set the title (via terminal->set title (menu)), I changes it for a split second, and then reverts back to the dynamic title.
This is merely a petty annoyance, so to get around it, I added an xtitle function that I grabed somewhere online (just echos "�33]0;$*�07"). So for nano-ing some file, I'd type:xtitle some_file.txt; nano some_file.txt
That works just fine (kind of annoying to type though). running xtitle alone won't actually change the name either though (I'm pretty sure it's the same command as what terminal does anyway). That is, running: xtitle some_file.txt
changes the title for a split second, and the reverts back to my old pwd.What I really want is to have it dynamically name it "some_file.txt" whenever I use nano, but that appears to be a functionality of zsh (with the preexec() fxn).I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem, and if you have a fix for it.
I've just installed xterm, ant trying to run it from my windows machine using ssh. I have X11Forwarding yes on /etc/ssh/sshd_config when I use, MobaXterm, np, I can use xterm after I log ssh -X xxx
but when I use Cygwin, and do ssh -X xxx, and then xterm, I have: xterm XT error : Can't open display: xterm: Display is not set
I can't mount nfs directory without option "-o nolock".NFS server is slackware 11 and client is Slackware 13 (full installation).I tested with Centos 5.4 and works fine. Using which rpc.lockd print is no rpc.lockd and slackware 11 is /usr/sbin/rpc.lockd.following services starting on client using rc.rpc ( rpc.statd and rpc.portmap)
I use Slackware64 -current. I will buy a SSD drive, normaly the filesystem in my laptop is EXT4. Is there anything that I need to know? How to improve life of the SSD? Is journaling a good option? How to disable?
I have a system using a Linksys WUSB54B usb wifi adapter that needs the rt2x00/rt2500 modules. Using the fresh install kernel, 2.6.29.6-smp, the modules are there and I get my interface up.
But, when I configure my own kernel, not an smp system, I cannot find the .config option in the menu for rt2x00 network adapter support and the modules are not in /lib/modules/vmlinuz-2.6.29.6-first directory tree after a "make modules_install".
I looked through the configuration menu, but could find no reference to the rt2x00 drivers.
When using the grep plugin to VIM, I can search the current directory for all occurrences of a string within a set of files, like this::grep Ryan *.txtThis outputs something like this:
file1.txt:3:Ryan was here file2.txt:10:Ryan likes VIM file3.txt:5:superuser.com is a fav of Ryan
I have an old acer aspire one that the hard drive has been cooked. the computers fine other then that, so what I'm trying to do is run it using 10.10 net book installed(not installer but actually installed) on a usb drive. I've created the installer on another jump drive and installed it onto the 8 gig using the aspire. everything goes fine, it tell me to reboot so i do and all i get is a black screen with the curser.It responds to nothing and never moves.
I just finished making a clone image on my XP Pro HD and am now ready to install Ubuntu 10.04. Are there any scripts available that will install software that will add more functionality to my new Ubuntu installation? I installed 10.04 on a Dell Desktop circa 2003 with an 80GB HD and 512MB of RAM. Looking forward to using it!! Is this latest Ubuntu release better than XP Pro overall?
Yesterday I configured an NTP Server, and synched a sever with my NTP Server. Now some how my Client clock jumped one hour ahead at 12:00 AM, while HW Clock and NTP Server Clock remained.
Code: cat /etc/sysconfig/clock # The ZONE parameter is only evaluated by system-config-date. # The timezone of the system is defined by the contents of /etc/localtime. ZONE="Asia/Karachi"
Where do I change the option to have samba start during the boot process? I've googled and I've found old posts that say it's a line in /etc/rc.d/rc.inet2 but in my semi-current box, I don't see the part about starting stopping the samba server.
I recently upgraded to Maverick. I did a clean install on my system. I am running NVIDIA drivers from the X-Swat repo. Whenever I try to play a mkv file using Gnome Mplayer it is very jumpy and laggy. VLC, using it's new hardware acceleration, won't even display video, though it does output the audio. I experienced none of these problems with my 10.04 setup. I am unsure if it is a player bug, a driver bug or something with the VDPAU library itself.
I just finished installing lucid lynx netbook to my jump drive (full install) to save room on my hard drive. It's working fine except the bootloader was installed to the jump drive as well, meaning I can't boot my computer without the jump drive. Is there any way to correct it so that the computer boot from the hard drive while keeping my install on the jump drive?
My desktop server serves up files via a number of protocols and I connect to it via SSH and Avahi. Today I tried connecting to it via SSH, but it timed out. I was able to ping it, and a port scan reveals all the ports I have open on the network. THe problem is that I can't connect via SSH, HTTP, AFP, SMB or any other protocol I have established.Is there a way to jump start a system in a situation like mine? I have a 6 month uptime going, but I'm taking it down soon for some hardware upgrades, so a hard restart is not out of the question, but I'd rather not. I also reset the router without a solution.
This may be impossibly easy or easily impossible, but I'm looking for a step by step guide to download an entire program onto a jump drive, then to drop that program onto another computer.
