Ubuntu :: 9.10 Keeps Defaulting To US Not UK Keyboard?

Jan 9, 2010

I have had an install of 9.10 since it was released. After a recent software update I keep having to set United Kingdom as the default layout in Keyboard Preferences and remove USA. All then works okay until I reboot after which it come back as USA only again. This is despite selecting "Apply System-wide" and authenticating with my user password.

Hardware :: Monitor Defaulting To Standby Mode?

Aug 15, 2009

Ever since I have been using Mepis 8 my monitor keeps defaulting to standby mode unless I keep using the mouse. I have tried all the usual things within KDE but with no success. Quite often I watch a dvd film on my PC and it is most annoying when the monitor switches off during a film. Is there an option within xorg.conf to stop this from occurring? My monitor is an LCD Benq FP91G+.

Ubuntu :: In XFCE - Prevent Mouse Cursor From Defaulting To Center Of Screen?

Jul 16, 2010

I have a machine running XFCE in a "kiosk" environment. The machine normally runs without a keyboard or mouse, and I remote control it via VNC and SSH.

When the machine starts up, the mouse cursor sits in the center of the screen. I don't want to plug in a mouse or use VNC to move the mouse to the bottom-right corner so that it is not visible, so is there a way to hide the mouse cursor or tell it to move to the lower right when X starts? It would be even cooler if the mouse could be disabled or hidden when no mouse is connected, but re-enabled when someone plugs in a mouse, but that's probably asking too much.

Server :: Apache 2.2 Virtual Hosts - Defaulting To Main?

Jul 19, 2011

First of all I've looked at "similar threads" without finding an answer. I'm setting up Name-based VH using an IP as the base. The OS is CentOS 5.4

My config looks like:

NameVirtualHost 12.345.678.90:80
#
# NOTE: NameVirtualHost cannot be used without a port specifier
# (e.g. :80) if mod_ssl is being used, due to the nature of the
# SSL protocol.

[Code]...

The names are of course not in DNS so to access the server from my local Windows machine I had to use the hosts file: 12.345.678.90 dev1 Entering dev1 in my browser *does* take me to the server but it takes me to default VH (DocumentRoot /var/www/html). What am I overlooking?

Server :: Apache2 Virtual Host Defaulting To Default Host

Oct 30, 2009

Bit of an odd one, this. I've migrated a website from my old server to a new machine. Both servers run Ubuntu + Apache2. Both only serve a single site, apart from the default site.I've flipped the domain name to the new IP address.The trouble is that after moving the virtual host config over into sites-available, with the necessary link in sites-enabled, Apache attempts to serve from the default web root (/var/www) rather than the actual site content (in /var/www/technology). So for example, an attempt to browse.

Ubuntu :: No Keyboard At Grub First Boot - Keyboard After Restart?

Jun 27, 2011

Computer: Toshiba Satellite Pro L510 laptop, 10.10.This has always happened but I have gotten around it by time-out and putting my menu.list in order. When I first boot the machine (switch on for the day from computer being off) I get to the grub options to select a kernel and I have no keyboard. No up/down arrows so have to go with the kernel on top of the list (not always desirable).

When I get to the log-in screen if I hit restart and go back to the grub screen I have a keyboard and can select any kernel. If I login to the kernel I have full keyboard, no problem. If I then restart, I have keyboard at the grub list.

Nutshell: It is only when starting the computer fresh that the keyboard is dead at grub menu (and then only). Any time after that, once the computer has been switched on, if I restart I have keyboard at grub menu and can select different kernels. (Of course, if I switch the computer off and back on again, no keyboard ...)

Jul 18, 2010

I'm trying to install slackware 32 bit 13.1.After loading kernel it asks for keyboard configuration, but keyboard (usb wireless) doesn't work.

Keyboard works on the old 13.0 installation, on bios and also in the boot options of 13.1 installation cd.

I've tried removing legacy usb support and changing usb2.0 speed from high to full. Nothing changed.

Anybody with this strange problem? (kernel of setup seems also to detect it correctly as a trust keyboard).

Ubuntu :: Can't Add More Than Four Keyboard Layouts

Feb 26, 2010

I work in a lot of different languages that use different fonts (Greek, Hebrew, Syriac, Ethiopic, etc.). I have added four keyboard layouts under Keyboard Preferences > Layouts. But now the "Add" button is grayed out. Is there a limit on the number of layouts you can have active? If so, is there any way to get around this? It's a real pain if I have to add and remove layouts all the time, especially because I'm sometimes testing new custom layouts as well.

Ubuntu :: USA Keyboard Keeps Appearing

May 2, 2010

I used Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit and built a Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit VM using VMWare player.It's great, except it keeps reverting to a USA keyboard after each reboot.The host OS doesn't do this.The host was installed normally, but the guest was installed via the VMWare easy install thing which does everything for you.I've already set the location back to London, and I've added a UK keyboard to it, but still this odd reversion.I've googled and found other people reporting it but don't see any resolution.

Ubuntu :: Keyboard Shortcut For Ssh?

May 10, 2010

I recently switched from GNOME to xfce, and I can't get working a simple keyboard shortcut to ssh to another machine.

In GNOME, I made a launcher (which gnome-do found); the first time I ran the launcher I'd get an X11 popup asking for by ssh passphrase, and then it would be saved for the rest of the GNOME session, making logins nice and fast.

In xfce, a similar launcher opens a new xfce4-terminal, which asks for the passphrase every time. I made a keyboard shortcut to "ssh -X me@server" -- this open an X11 popup for the passphrase, but no terminal, because there is no "run in terminal" option for keyboard shortcuts.

I'd be okay with running "ssh-add" at every login, but it has to be system-wide, rather than attached to one terminal instance. Passphraseless ssh is an options but a creepy one.

Ubuntu :: How To Boot Without Keyboard

Nov 1, 2010

I have searched this forum before posting & can only see threads about problems of keyboards not being seen by Ubuntu.

My problem is different. I have a headless server running 9.10. it has no GUI & is CLI only. The annoying thing is that I cant boot it without a keyboard. I have seen other sites threads saying turn of 'apm' in BIOS? But I dont know if that will affect other things.

I use SSH only to manage this box either from home/work so again keyboard is not needed in any capacity.
