Ubuntu :: Shift-Insert On A Numeric Pad From Vmware?
Jun 24, 2011
I'm using Ubuntu installed on a vmware virtual machine and everything worked find except accessing Shift-Insert (Shift-0 on the numeric pad) in VMware console window (Windows XP). I'm one of those who used to using Shift-Ins and Ctrl-Ins for clipboard and Insert is where 0 on the numeric pad (Num-Lock is off). With this configuration any Shift-Numeric keys give numbers (as if NumLock was on)
What I noticed:
- The problem is not present if I use TightVNC for Windows for remote access (works as expected)
- The problem doesn't go out if I install open-vm-tools (installed with apt-get install --no-install-recommends open-vm-tools
- Vmware console works correctly if the system installed on a virtual machine is Windows

My name is ken on my system. Whenever I try to use CTRL or Shift Insert to copy or paste text, i get a dialog box that comes up and says, Could not find "/home/ken/~", see attachment, even after I click on the OK button. It used to work a long long time ago.It does not copy or paste anything. I'm on Karmic. If its a keybinding where the heck is it located. I'm sort of a noob.

I have a new install and my right touch pad button doesn't paste like on my other installs. Instead I have to use shift-insert. Does anyone know the keysym statement that can remap shift insert to my right touchpad button(laptop)?

I have installed the latest version of Ubuntu Linux (11.04) into latest VMware workstation (7.1.4 build-385536). I have tried to install the VMware tools ISO that came with VMware workstation but It didn't work and the installation seemed real sloppy anyways.
I installed the open VMware tools from synaptic within the guest linux and restarted, everything seemed to have been installed just fine but VMware Workstation doesn't detect it. I'm not sure if the tools are outdated, silent errors happened, or if any manual post installation steps need to be taken.
getting any form of VMware tools to run in Linux and detected by VMware Workstation.

I completed the installation of VMWare Server 2.0.2 onto a CentOS 5.4 64-bit distribution. There is a VMware virtual machine file on the server in question, and I want to activate it through the application console.
I did not see anything readily apparent that would facilitate the importing of the virtual machine file. Does anyone have a procedure that can accomplish this task?

I have been using VMware Player for some time to host Fedora VMware images on Windows XP. I have been using Fedora 11 and 12 (both 32 and 64 bit) and recently started to use Fedora 13.
I use as a base the images provided by thoughtpolice. http://www.thoughtpolice.co.uk/
I usually install VMware tools and also keep the images updated (yum update) which sometimes changes the kernel.
I have recently had problems with the snapshots not having a network when I restore them. So far I don't have the problem with Fedora 11 and do have it with Fedora 12 (but used not to). I do have it with Fedora 13.
In each case the problem goes away when I uninstall the VMware tools and comes back when I install them again.
One of the symptoms is that SElinux complains about not being able to do something with /var/run/vmware-active-nics.
It looks to me that something is incorrect in the actions being taken when the snapshot is being restored. It does not happen every time and sometimes the network restores itself.
The network can be restored by rebooting the image.

I am running an up to date Debian Lenny system with vmware 1.08 server installed.
When I run vmware, it appears to start normally. However, when I try to open a previously created image (from a different machine), everything is fine until I hit browse, which causes a screen to pop up that syas "The folder contents could not be displayed VFS error: Invlalid paramteres." and the following shows up on the command line:

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 just got a new internet connection from the local service provider. While installation, he insisted that i use my mobile number as the wpa password for the wifi. From what Ive heard, this is company policy. Im a little skeptical about this as ive read wpa is crackable using a dictionary if the password is in there. So i looked around and found the air-crack suite to test the security for my access point. As my password is only numeric, i couldn't find only a numeric dictionary to use with air-crack.
So, i would like to create a dictionary that has only 10 digits, and the first two digit should be "05", because thats what mobile numbers here start from. I would be really grateful if anyone could point me to a way to do this easily.

On my Sony Vaio VPCF12M1E I have a small but irritating problem: Since yesterday the numeric pad on my keyboard doesn't work anymore. I can use the numbers at the top, but not on my numpad. This happened out of nowhere when I was just setting up an access point. No idea what I did wrong, cause I only configured a static IP Reboot, and numpad was gone. I tried restarting the laptop, I tried disabling and enabling Numlock over and over again. Nothing works.

I am running Ubuntu on an Acer 5742 laptop and running XP on Oracle Virtual box and plugged in externally (keyboard, mouse etc...) I have lost ability on both the laptop numeric keyboard (only the numeric keys) and the external keyboard when plugged in. This happened while I was working in Virtual box and running Windows XP.
When the laptop is on its own the numeric keyboard doesn't work (only numeric keys) either. I have toyed with the number lock and I have un-installed and re-installed both"keyboard input methods" and "input method switcher" within Ubuntu software centre to with no change. Not that I bought the damn computer for the numeric keyboard but it should work.

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

I've noticed a bit of a problem here in the last few days...after some point, my numeric keypad stops being a numeric keypad; instead, it controls the mouse (5 right clicks, and the outer keys move the cursor in the appropriate direction). It doesn't appear to happen on boot, as I generally type the numeric bits of my password with the keypad, but some point after. The only common events I can think of where this has occurred is either after connecting to the system via SSH, or after swapping to tty1 (which usually requires re-enabling of numberlock for the terminal to recognize digits, again for the password). No matter what state the NumLock is in (off or on) at this point, the keypad fails to function as a keypad.

TO the sticky: My wireless doesn't work - a primer on what I should do next Section 2 b) I guess it would be easier for the user if she/he would just use one command instead of /sbin/lspci and than /sbin/lspci -n and compare both outputs to find the right section that inhales the hexadecimal numeric IDs for the wireless LAN/wireless/WLAN/bluetooth/..What do you (all and especially the sticky's author, dear Larry Finger) think of alternatives like:
Code:
/sbin/lspci -nn

I would like to set my postfix to reject any numeric domains. I am seeing in my mail queue mail from domains like 2212.com, 263.com, 29.com and others. Because there is a variety of these, I don't want to track each of them and block them one by one. What do I need to put in my access file to reject any numeric domain? Is it possible to have a numeric wild-card reject in the access db?

I have tried rebuilding pygtk after installing Numpy and ended up making a mess of python. I have it back to functional now, but I would like to know how to properly add numeric python support. I suspect there is a proper order to building all of the python dependencies that yields success. Ultimately I am trying to run mypaint.

The issue i found is that when i connect from ubuntu to windows 2003 server, through rdesktop, using the numeric keypad disables automatically the caps lock setting.To reproduce the problem :
- connect to a windows remote pc through rdesktop
- open notepad
- press caps lock to set the capital letters
[code]....
The result is :
ADKLEFL2390309ajkejkjf
The caps lock has been silently deactivated. Only ubuntu clients are affected by this. I think it's a bug of rdesktop.
