Ubuntu :: Numeric Keyboard No Longer Works In 9.10 Karmic Koala?
Apr 13, 2010
I've had Ubuntu 9.10 x64 installed on my Asus G60JX-RBBX05 Laptop for a few weeks now, and for the most part its been working pretty well.Then a couple of days ago, I suddenly noticed I could no longer use the numeric keypad. This seemed completely out of the blue, but its possible I received an automatic Update through the Update Manager that hosed it or something. I'm really not sure.Has anyone had a similar experience

Upon booting mouse and keyboard work for a short duration, sometimes it works on optimum level though. If I speedily type in my password it will go through and then freeze before logging. This appears to be a known problem in Lucid Lynx I was wondering if there was a fix for a certain update [URL]

I have new install of 11.4 X86_64 which has been working fine up until this morning. Now when I boot and get the kdm login screen, the keyboardis no longer working, nothing appears from typing, no key sequences are recognized. The mouse works fine and when I go Console Login, the keyboard works fine.The mouse and keyboard are both Logictech wireless using the Logitech unifying usb link. As I said, it was working fine until this morning.I have no idea how to even diagnose this.

I have read numerous posts about this subject, but being a novis in the Linux field, I cannot say that without explicit step by step instructions I am able to repair or tinker with anything under Ubuntu. In short, my sound has ceased to function. It did work for a period of time and suddenly no more. I have a 64 bit version of Ubuntu 9.1.

As most users, I am new to Upstart.
I am looking for the easiest way to get my workstation running with the needed services. At this time, these include SSHD and Music Player Daemon.
I ve installed both and they work when activated manually by sudo /etc/init.d/ssh start, or mpd respectively. But I don t have a clue as to how to start them up with an Upstart job?
I ve tried this code...
but to no success.

using 9.10 Karmic Koala I have a folder of JPGs. Rightclick on one, choose Open With F=Spot. A small window opens. Then a larger one, identifying the F-Spot program. Then everything goes away. Or I go to Applications/Graphics/F-SpotPhotoManager the same thing happens: small window, big window, gone.

On Dell Inspiron 9200, with or without accelerator for NVIDEA graphics. P.S. I would like to give 9.10 a chance. have gedit and browser open (browser with the forum message being edited), then do the following:
1.This example demonstrates one problem (unresponsive single click) Use the System-->Preferences-->Mouse
Click repeatedly on the light bulb at 1 second interval ---> result: often the light does not turn on. Result: it appears that the click event does not complete. I have noticed that a mouse-out will cause the click to complete (specifically as in 2. and 3 after a brief moment (hopefully before the drag and drop icon appears).
2. Click on any icon, submit button, close, etc. takes many tries.
3. Click on any icon, panel button, link, etc. if you linger a moment a floating icon (a drag and drop hand).
4. Scrollbar button and action follow the mouse outside of the scrollbar. The scrollbar sticks - difficult to make scrollbar stop following the mouse.
5. Example, have two visible windows (for example gedit and the browser) From gedit move to browser by click on browser. ---> result takes forever to recognise the focus and click and go to the broser.
6. Unresponsive UI. In browser highlight text in textarea (with difficulty) then chose Copy (slow UI), from this window click on desktop's Applications (takes many clicks to open), from Accessories click on gedit (slow or takes more than one try), paste (speed of paste OK).

I recently installed Karmic Koala server edition, and then did the 'apt-get ..install' for the desktop gnome, but now I'm not sure what to do to get my gui to show. I am stuck at the termanal type command line, it's asking for a sudo comman. I know a few 'sudo' commands, but I really need the gui.

it just happened a few days ago. When i log in i pres ''Num lock'' and i type the password but after loging in the numeric keyboard won't work. I tried num lock several times but it doesn't work. It works in windows 7 so it's not a hardware problem. I hate using the number keys on the alphanumeric keyboard.

I have a Dell Latitude D620 which came with Windows XP. I have just installed Ubuntu 9.10 on the laptop so it can dual boot but I can't connect to the internet.I have a dynamic IP allocated by my broadband service provider which I access by a wired Netgear DM111P router (not cable). It still works fine when booting up windows.I've read through lots of posts by others trying to find a solution as the 9.10 install has just been done and I've not changed anything.
My tentative assessment is the laptop, when running Ubuntu, is not communicating with the router as there seems to be no IP address allocated by the router.

I'm using FSC Lifebook S series, to be more specific S7210. I know from specs and from Win that it contains onboard accelerometer, in Win Vista it works perfectly, with FSC supplied "Motion sensor utility" it protects hard disk from damage during sudden shakes of notebook.
The question is - i couldn't anyhow find any note in Ubuntu that it is recognized and is used as it should be. So I'm wondering is it done automatically or it is not used at all? If it is working is there any way to check some status of it, or if it isn't how to get it to protect hdd?

it has been a year since I've started using Ubuntu linux, and for being calm that everything is working properly, I would like to do a full system check. The only option I've found is on System=> Administration=> System Testing, but this wasn't what I was searching for (mainly because I don't know what is written there- I don't know enough for running this option). Is there something else I can do? maybe something through Terminal?I want to run such a check also because the system sometimes work slowly, and maybe something went wrong...

I was also having a problem with the Shutdown / Reboot sequence taking ages due to using WiFi, WPA2 and mounting SMB shares. I wasted about 4 hours digging around before I finally realised that the solution involved Upstart. 1. Open a terminal and enter:
Code: sudo gedit /etc/init/network-manager.conf 2. Just below the description line add the following:
Code:
pre-stop script
/etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh
end script
3. Save the script and attempt a restart. I don't know if this will work for everyone, or even what version of Upstart you need for it to work, but it cuts my shutdown time from about 2 mins to about 30 seconds.
Note: This has been working for me about 90% of the time. Occasionally though I see that the script ends prematurely due to the TERM signal and I end up with the 2 minute wait again. I've added the following to the /etc/init/network-manager.conf file:

After finally figuring out how to bring up a terminal window in Karmic Koala (obviously a new user) to attempt configure a nVidia issue, it asked for a root password.. I have no idea what the root password is. Is it a generic password or some Linux command?

I am having problem in grub2 fails to boot the system. I get the error:
Booting from local disk...
GRUB loading.
error: no such disk
System setup:
It's a Dell XPS400 PC with 160 GB HDD. I have a non-LVM, primary partition for the boot file system (/boot) of 200 MB. I also have seven logical volumes (LVM partitions): six for each of the /(root), swap, /home, /usr, /var and /tmp, and one vbox_win_xp_base as a raw disk for running Win XP in the Virtualbox. I went on to configure all these without rebooting the system in between. Later I also updated to the kernel version 2.6.31._20. Next day I decided to reboot my system. But then the bootloader (GRUB2 in my case) won't able to boot it and gives the error mentioned above.
