Ubuntu :: Keys Stay On In Searchandrescue

Jan 4, 2010

So lately I've been playing searchandrescue and I think it's great, like a simpler version of Simcopter. But for some reason the key will stay on until I close the game, and occasionally after I close it. For example, if I hit m to check my map while the engine is revving up, it will stay on, and when I hit a button that requires typing, it will just be a bunch of m's. Or sometimes if I hit an arrow key it will stay on, then I'll exit the game and move up to the menu and the key will still be going, but when I hit the key again after the game is closed it will stop. Any ideas on this one? Once I figure out the command to start searchandrescue in the terminal I'll post the output when the bug occurs.

General :: F3 - F5 Keys Incorrectly Behaving As Audio Keys / Remap Them To Original Meaning?

Apr 17, 2010

I don't know if this is a configuration issue or a hardware issue, but I have a Kinesis Advantage USB keyboard and for some reason the F3-F5 keys aren't responding as they used to. They don't respond to anything and, when I tried using F5 on Emacs, it said <XF86AudioNext> is undefined, so I guess it's a weird mapping problem.

Any idea how I could remap them to the original meaning?

General :: Re-mapping Non-standard Keys To Modifier Keys?

Apr 7, 2011

I'm running Debian (Squeeze) and I have a toshiba portege m700. It has five buttons on the front just under the screen, which are the only ones accessible when you flip the screen over into tablet mode. One of them is for rotating the screen, and another is for switching to external display. I want to remap the remaining three to control, alt and super so that I can use shortcuts with the stylusThe problem is, when I used showkey to find out the key codes, I found out that each button generates more than one key code:Button 1:

key 126 press >> super_r, although this is distinct from the actual super key (125)
key 7 press >> 6
key 7 release
key 126 release

Sep 12, 2010

I've set-up my main panel along the bottom of the screen. However when I reboot/restart the little F!@#$% is back up top again. So I figure fine right click properties/set to bottom. But no. It jumps right back to the top. like I didn't select bottom at all. Also its happening on both my laptop and netbook.

Ubuntu :: Monitor Won't Stay On / Ge That To Work?

Feb 10, 2010

I'm having this problem with a older ibm thinkcentre with some:00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04)
video controller in it.

The problem is the monitor connected has to stay on all the time, but something keeps shutting down the video card then the machine has been idle for some time, and the monitor goes "No video signal" until someone touches the mouse or keyboard.

The system is the newst updated 9.10, and ive set "Put monitor to sleep = never" in the power management settings. Ive also disabled the screen saver.

Now, i dont think its Xorg that shut the video card down, i believe its the framebuffer (or kernel console or whatever its called). If i jump to the console with ctrl-alt + F1, log in and turn off Xorg with lets say sudo service gdm stop, the video card still turns off after like 15-20 minutes.

Other things ive tried:
completely disabling framebuffer in the grub configuration (with vga=normal and nofb and even combining both, this however doesn't really disable the high resolution framebuffer at all. Its still on now matter how much i try to disable it..hmm (and the grub settings is used by grub as I'm able to set nosplash witch is effective))

and the last thing I've tried was setterm -powersave off, no luck there.

Before thinking it may be the console doing the video poweroff, I tried disabling DPMS in Xorg config, (and disabling it with xset) this dosent help, although i'm able to turn on the video signal again from a ssh session with xset -dpms -display :0.0 or xset dpms force on -display :0.0. However after some idletime the video signal shutsdown again.

Ubuntu :: IPhone Users - Stay Away From IOS?

Sep 9, 2010

Just updated my iPhone to iOS4.1 to take advantage of the HDR feature in the iPhone. It's great. Now I cannot sync with rhythmbox. Stay away from iOS4.1 - libimobiledevice is not up to it yet. Why must Apple make it hard for us linux users? (Think differently - as long as you use only our products).

Ubuntu Networking :: 10.10 Won't Stay Connected

Mar 24, 2011

I am running a dual-boot with Ubuntu 10.10 and Windows 7 and I can't stay connected to the internet with Ubuntu, but Windows does. My router is a D-Link GamerLounge DGL-4500. I have wireless internet access for about 10 seconds but then it drops. Access to the router doesn't go away though. Other computers can connect to it just fine, and my computer (Toshiba Satellite A505) has connected to every other one I've tried on. I can still log in to it and change settings and all that, but I can't access the internet through it. I also can't ping the router.

Ubuntu :: Getting Feh's Wallpaper To Stay On Fluxbox?

Apr 14, 2011

Whenever I set a new wallpaper on Fluxbox with feh, it goes away as soon as I log out and log back in. It is probably relevant to say that my login wallpaper just so happens to be the same one that Fluxbox automatically switches to when it logs in, which I changed (somehow, can't remember how).

Ubuntu :: Create A Directories That Always Stay On Top?

May 6, 2011

have been working how to do this for a while finally getting around to asking....

as a long time windows user I have used a trick of creating directories that will always be the first ones displayed by using an _foldername model, for ex:

_temp
A dir
B dir
temp

assuming the four above are directories that is how they are sorted by default in windows and I commonly use this technique for special folders.

for my virtual machines folder in windows looks like this:

_base
LX-Ubuntu9.1
LX-Ubuntu11.4
XP-TestVM
...

where I put base virtual machines in _base and it makes it easy to separate them for all the other folders which are virual machines....SO....

in Ubuntu, I cant figure out a character or way to ensure this type of behavior, for example if I create a _base folder it shows up after a dirs and around the bs etc...

any know a way to create a dir with a special char that will ensure it stays on top?

I am trying to create a script that takes a network resource off the network, and opens it in nautilus to recover files. Everything is working fine, except for the nautilus part. Nautilus opens just fine, but the script opens it and does not go on, even when nautilus is closed. when running another terminal instance with nautilus in it, when nautilus is closed, the extra terminal just sits there.

Ubuntu :: Get My Resolution To Stay At 1024 X 768 After A Restart?

Feb 9, 2010

I just did a clean install from Ubuntu 8.04 LTS to Ubuntu 9.10. I went to System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers to enable any drivers (mainly for my graphics card so I could run higher resolutions). Had two driver, one for my wireless network interface card and one for my graphics card (NVIDIA Geforce FX 5200). I enabled the drivers restarted and went to System -> Administration -> NVIDIA X Server Settings. The resolution was set to "Auto", which is 1280 x 1024 (max.) on my old CRT.

I've ran that resolution for a day now and it isn't as snappy as I'd like it to be (or as the exact same resolution was on 8.04). So I reverted back to 1024 x 768. Everything seems to be running as I'd hope under the lower resolution. The only problem I am running into now is when I restart NVIDIA X Server Settings changes back to "Auto" and automatically switches to 1280 x 1024. I've clicked "Save X Configuration File" thinking that might help retain the resolution I want after startup, but it just says "Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/x11/xorg.confg'!"

How do I get my resolution to stay at 1024 x 768 after a restart?

Ubuntu :: Keyboard Settings Won't Stay After Reboot?

Mar 19, 2010

I'm using Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04 in Acer Aspire One together with Windows XP (both on different partitions). The trouble since installing Ubuntu has been that my keyboard has scandinavic layout which includes "" and "" keys. When I assign the layout in Ubuntu's as "FI" instead of "USA" everything is fine. After reboot for some reason the changes made won't stay and I have to change the keyboard layout manually. If I remove "USA" from the list after reboot it'll appear to the list again!

I've tried to create /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with the keyboard configuration code, but it has no effect for the situation. I've tried also command:

Code:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup This has no effect also.

I'm starting to be frustrated for the situation. I really enjoy using Ubuntu instead of XP but this just doesn't make sense that the keyboard layout won't stay on.

Ubuntu / Apple :: Reefit Won't Stay Installed On Mac

Mar 20, 2010

I followed the reefit manual instructions to install. I tried using the installer package and it seemed to work fine, only when I reboot there is no option which operating system I want to use, and when I go back into OSX reefit isn't there anymore. I also tried the manual install putting it into the system folder on OSX and I get the same problem, it's gone again after I reboot. (Im using the option button to boot into Linux right now, and when I do my Linux partition is called "Windows", I don't know if that matters either.)

Current GPT partition table:

# Start LBA End LBA Type
1 40 409639 EFI System (FAT)
2 409640 360857639 Mac OS X HFS+

Ubuntu Networking :: Wireless Adapter Just Won't Stay On / Fix It?

May 29, 2010

I've recently installed 10.04 LTS on an old laptop. I've not been able to connect to the internet at all. I finally finagled some drivers for my Broadcom BCM4318, and seemed to get everything in order, but it says that the "Radio hardware status changed to DISABLED"

Then, I pushed the button on the laptop to turn the wireless on, and it worked! But then as soon as I let the button go, it turned off. Is there some way to toggle it so it's always on?

Ubuntu :: Nvidia Resolution Will Not Stay After Reboot

May 31, 2010

I'm using Nvidia's driver from their website and Kubuntu 8.04. I tried Debian 5.04 kde on the same computer and the resolution stays. Of course I prefer kubuntu. After shutdown the video resolution goes back to 1024x768 but I want 1280x800 instead. I have a Dell IN191ON lcd widescreen monitor and geforce fx 5200 video card. I'm using the latest video driver from Nvidia for this card version NVIDIA-Linux-x86-173.14.25-pkg1.run.

Here is my xorg.conf.

# nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings
# nvidia-settings: version 1.0 (buildmeister@builder75) Wed Jan 27 03:03:53 PST 2010

Ubuntu :: System Doesn't Stay Shutdown?

Nov 27, 2010

When I shut down the computer, it does not remain shut down. This is different from "restarting" the computer because when I "shutdown" the computer powers down, the fan and disks stop spinning for a second, and then everything starts again. When I "restart" the fan and disks remain spinning throughout the restart process.Further, the computer is dual booting with Windows XP Pro. If I shut down from Windows, the system remains shut down.

System Information:
Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx
kernel: 2.6.32-26-generic

Ubuntu Networking :: VPN Connection Will Not Stay Alive

Feb 21, 2011

As part of my transition moving away from Windows altogether, I've been trying to get the VPN to work properly under Ubuntu 10.10 32bit, through the wifi connection. The provider is Ivacy, using PPTP, and the usual instructions (below) are followed: [URL]. The VPN originally connects fine, browsing etc works all fine, for a limited period of time though. Within roughly 10min the connection stops working; I'm not yet sure whether the determining factor is time or bandwidth, but it remains short-lived...

There is no indication of the VPN connection dropping, it seems to remain connected, but no packets are received. To get the internet working again I have to manually disconnect from the VPN; then I can browse without the VPN, or reconnect the VPN and it will work for another small lapse of time. In addition, I'm not sure if this related, but after reconnecting a few times to the VPN as described above, eventually I get an error message, "failed to start the VPN service" (or words to that effect). The VPN connection worked very reliably under Windows.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Default Microphone Won't Stay?

Jun 17, 2011

I'm having a lot of trouble getting the default microphone to stay as the webcam microphone in 10.04 LTS. What happened at first is that there was the motherboard microphone and the webcam mic - despite selecting it, once the computer went to sleep or was switched off, it would return to motherboard input (i.e. no input). So, I wrote a script that would change it back to the webcam each time the computer started. It didn't work so well, and eventually I found I could just disable the motherboard input entirely, which I did. Now, my only option for input is the webcam, but everytime the computer sleeps, it wakes up with it unchecked - as though it would rather have no input than the webcam.

Motherboard is an M4A88T-M/USB-3, 500GB Seagate HDD, 3.2GHz AMDx2.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Microphone Won't Stay Muted - Karmic

Feb 5, 2010

I've got an asus a8js laptop and since installing karmic, the built in microphone is permanently on. Every once in a while I brush my finger of the mic unintentionally and it makes some mad feedback.

I've ruled out that this is caused by pulseaudio, the problem occurs when pulseaudio is off (pulseaudio --kill) and I've set .asoundrc to go straight through the hardware.

My first thought was to check alsamixer, but I muted (capture, mic, mic boost set to 0) it in there to no avail. Consequently, any time I move a slider (any one, PCM, mic, Front...) the microphone mutes for 3 to 15 seconds and then is suddenly live again.

Here's my .asoundrc

Code:

In all the soundcard works fine, it's just that the mic is always on and I can't seem to set it otherwise.
