Ubuntu :: Change Behavior Of XF86AudioLowerVolume And XF86AudioRaiseVolume

Nov 18, 2010

I recently installed a new ubuntu system (10.10) as media center. I am running Gnome and xbmc on it. Until here, everything perfect!

I bought one of those cheapass media center keyboards with multimediakeys. Except for one, they all work out of the box.

My problem: When i press the volume down key, gnome lowers the volume of my mediacenter. This might be good for most users, but i have a surround receiver/amplifier (Denon AVR3310) that should handle the sound.

In fact, i am looking for this: When i press the volume up/down key, instead of changing the volume of my mediacenter, gnome should execute a script i wrote. This script sends commands to my receiver (using the serial port or the network connection) to lower/raise the volume.

Small additional question: I would like to get the one button that doesn't work yet to work. I have a 'mc' (mediacenter) button on my keyboard. I would like to make this launch xbmc. When running 'xev', i don't see any output when i press the button.

General :: Change Amount And Size Of Ramdisks

Mar 8, 2011

Using Linux, when I boot I automatically have 16 16MB ramdisks, however, I would like to create one really large ramdisk to test some software.I found that I can adjust the size of the ramdisks already on the system with the kernel boot parameter ramdisk_size however, this makes all 16 ramdisks (/dev/ram0 - /dev/ram15) the size that is specified. So if I want to create a 1GB ramdisk, I would need 16GB of memory.Basically, I want to create one 10GB ramdisk which would be /dev/ram0. How would I go about doing that? I assume there is a kernel boot parameter, but I just haven't found it.

General :: Can't Map XF86AudioRaiseVolume Key In QJoyPad

Sep 25, 2010

I wanted to map my PSone gamepad to do some basic KDE/keyboard/mouse functions and everything works well except one thing. I use logitech ultra-x keyboard which has a few multimedia buttons (play, home, volumeup, volumedown..) and I wanted to map volumeup and volumedown keys to my pad with everything else.

volumedown works well, but volumeup makes some trouble. after I start qjoypad and map it - it does work but after mapping it I still see the "[NO KEY]" (while it is doing its job - volumeup; that's strange).. after I turn qjoypad off and on I get this error: "Error reading button 6" and after that "Error reading definition for joystick 0"

this is my layout:

QJoyPad 4.1 Layout File
Joystick 1 {
Axis 4: gradient, dZone 6505, maxSpeed 11, tCurve 2, sens 2, mouse+h
Axis 5: gradient, dZone 6264, maxSpeed 11, tCurve 2, mouse+v

General :: Formatting $PS1 To X Amount Of Character?

Jun 22, 2011

I'm looking for a way to force my PS1 variable to a certain number of chars.
It currently looks like:

$PS1="W $"

and I'm trying to keep the same number of characters regardless of the length of current folder name.

For example, both Documents and bin would be displayed as 10 character strings, keeping the left side of my terminal the same width all of the time.

Feb 28, 2010

What is the minimum amount of processes that can be run and still keeping stable? I have what looks like over 100 processes running and my computer is lagging pretty bad. Attached is an output of
Code:
ps -A
And it comes and goes with the cpu usage. cpu1 will run at like 9 or 10 percent idle while cpu2 will run at 100 percent all the time. I am not sure whats going on. But id hate to have to start from scratch again begins I just got it set up the way i want it. And the network activity keeps having spikes when I am not online. I've scanned with multiple port scanners and nothing seems out of the norm.

Ubuntu :: Max Amount Of Mounted Partitions

May 11, 2011

I'm just wondering because I'm going to to test out just how many partitions I can make and mount on GPT. Is there a theoretical limit on the amount of partitions or mounts allowed? I was thinking there would be depending on if you were running i386 or x86_64 because both can only handle up to a certain interger.

Fedora :: Massive Amount Of Fonts To Install

Nov 8, 2010

I have read several of the thousands of posts regarding installing of fonts on Fedora. All come to the same conclusion of having to install each font individually.Is there a way to install a massive amount of fonts, ie: over 500 ttf's? And just for kicks in, I need to save it into the folder for all users to have access to, not under my profile.

Ubuntu :: Decrease The Amount Of Disk Space?

Aug 29, 2010

I tried to install Portable VirtualBox using wine and even though I installed it on my /host/ folder (with 19 gb free) it downloaded some massive file on my Wubi installation (with 60 mb free) and now I am down to 3 mb left on Wubi and I can't find the massive file that it downloaded. Tried using the disk usage analyzer but nothing came up. Windows is unbootable so I can't use it.

Before this, Ubuntu would constantly decrease the amount of disk space I had free for no reason as well. It would jump from 120 mb one day to 50 mb.I moved my documents to my Windows folders but the disk space only stayed at 100 for another day or so before it went down again. apt-get auto/clean, localepurge, and deborphan are completely useless and there's something else going on behind the scenes here that I don't know about.Using Ubuntu Jaunty.

Ubuntu :: Auto Suspend After Certain Amount Of Time?

Feb 8, 2011

Most nights I fall asleep watching tv or movies. I want the computer to go to sleep after I do. Under Power Management Properties I have "put computer to sleep when inactive for 1:00" yes - to " spin down hard disks" and "put display to sleep when inactive for 1:00"

I'd say 65% of the time I wake up and the computer is running, not suspended, and 45% of the time the monitor is still on. Over the past 8 months or so I have been trying different media players. I tend to have the same problem of the computer not sleeping with all of them. (Banshee, Miro, xbmc, boxee, vlc, totem, )

1. Is there a process I can look for that may be running some of the time that would hinder the suspend function?

2. Is there a simple script I can write for "suspend in 90 minutes"

3. I think I remember seeing way to do this from the CLI with pm-suspend, yeah?

Edit- I found this http://bit.ly/hpThVM
Things I tested that didn't work
~$ sudo echo pm-suspend | at 12:27
~$ sudo sleep 30s

General :: Best Distro For Least Amount Of Disk Errors

Aug 26, 2010

I have been having a lot of problems with disk errors and want to find a solution or more stable distro. I can not post the link yet since I am new but it is in the Ubuntu section of this forum and titled "Hibernate or spin down or hard shutdown causes errors." I am running Ubuntu 10.4 64bit on an AMD64 2.2gh.

I have been doing my research about distros and know a bit about what is going on with Linux. Sort of transcending past newbie I think. But I want to know what is the most stable distro for the least amount of Disk errors, or how to get ubuntu not to have so many errors. Maybe install the 32bit version? I want something fast and simple where I can run gimp/inkscape/openoffice/and maybe some of the video editing packages like Kino/piviti/cinerella.
