Ubuntu :: .XCompose File Not Read In 11.04 GNOME?
May 1, 2011
Under 11.04, using the fallback GNOME 2 environment, I am trying to set up my Compose key. I have a sample set of shortcuts in `.XCompose`:
Code:
james@thoth:~$ cat .XCompose
include "%L"
<Multi_key> <Right> <c> : "↻" U21BB # CLOCKWISE OPEN CIRCLE ARROW
[Code].....
Things I'd like to know to debug this:
What system reads the .XCompose file? At what points does it re-read the file?
Where is the syntax and semantics of the .XCompose file defined?
What error log will contain errors relating to it?
Where can I find the search path for XCompose files?
How/where can I see currently loaded shortcuts?

I need to debug my XCompose settings, as currently they are not being loaded. What system reads the Compose files? At what points does it re-read the files? How do I induce it to? There are a number of Compose files under /usr/share/X11/locale/[LOCALE]/Compose. What configuration determines which of these files, if any, is read? Where is the syntax and semantics of the Compose files defined? What error log will contain errors relating to them? Where can I find the search path for Compose files? How/where can I see currently loaded shortcuts?
Note: I posted this a while ago here but got ignored, so I'm trying again.

When i logged into a gnome desktop i got this message: "The GNOME session manager was unable to read file:'/home/(desktop name)/ICEauthority'. If this file exists it must be readable by you for GNOME to work properly. try logging in with failsafe session and removing the file." What commands do i use for that? or do i need to do something else?

I would like to configure Lucid for use of XIM and the .XCompose file. I have done this successfully on prior versions of Ubuntu and even systems that were upgraded to Lucid. However, I cannot seem to get a fresh Lucid install to setup for use of XIM and the .XCompose file properly. Has anyone successfully set this up on a clean Lucid install?

I plugged in my USb drive into my computer yesterday and tried to delete a folder. I was unable to do so and got the following message
Cannot move file to trash, do you want to delete immediately? The file "my file" cannot be moved to the trash. Show Details Unable to create trashing info file: Read-only file system
So when I click on delete I get another error message:
Error while deleting.
There was an error deleting Case Study Database. Show Details Error removing file: Read-only file system
At this point I can only click on Skip, Skip All, or Cancel.
I have not changed anything on the stick recently so I dont know what is causing the problem.

I am splitting a file based on the values read from an input file. The below one is the script.
1)How do I add the header which is present in the original file to the new split files created?(For eg. pharmacyf conatins header as table column names. The new files created (ODS.POS.$pharmacyid.$tablename.$CURRENT_DATE.dat) are without the header).
2) Also the script is creating 0 byte files for the pharmacyids which are not available in the intial file? Can this be avoided?
for pharmacyf in *
do
tablename=`echo $pharmacyf |cut -f4 -d'.' `
while read pharmacyid
do
grep -w $pharmacyid $pharmacyf >> $OUT/ODS.POS.$pharmacyid.$tablename.$CURRENT_DATE.dat
done< inputfile
done

I have a number of versions of gnome installed on a number of different hosts. All users have network mounted home directories. In some cases gnome works poorly when reading configuration from the .gnome2 directory. I would like to read config files from version specific directories. Is there any way to specify this when starting gnome? Environment variables perhaps? I know how to move the .gconf directories but this is not sufficient. I need to read the .gnome2 from a different path.

Suppose I have a binary program with only execute permission enabled for the current user. How (in general) would I be able to obtain a core dump of the file? I think I have read it somewhere but I want to know if there are more ways of doing it.

I bought a new SD card which I intend to put some MP3s on - except that I can't write to it because it tells me the destination is Read Only. No-probs thinks I: I'll just reformat it.
"Error creating file system: helper exited with exit code 1: cannot open /dev/mmcblk0p1: Read-only file system"
Various chmod commands all result in Read-only file system. I tried umount then mount commands, but it couldn't find it to mount once I'd unmounted it using the same /media/ file path (I assume it's the only one).

My Redhat Enterprise Linux 4 with 6x partitions (/, /boot,/home, /usr, /var, /tmp) of 6.0 GB IDE Hardisk was working quite fine. I decided to create LVM on /home and /var partitions but due to some errors occured and I delete the /home partitions. That's why partition table altered. I then delete 4,5,and 6th partitions (/home, /var, /tmp) partitions and now try to create one by one but following error is coming:-

i log in and went to the policy folder to erase the file prefernces.fdi and it would not let me delete this file /move it to the trash or even edit it it said something like you are not the owner ,so i could not change the permissions to overwrite this file.what should i do i just want to be able to change this file to true so it will see my internal sc dar reader right now when i put in a sd card it does not show up.i also tried changing this in the terminal there was a post on one blog that showed how ,but i was having trouble edit the xml file in the terminal so for me it would be easier to just overwrite the prefernces.fdi file since im a beginner.

I've had this happen twice. I get this after the grub screen (after I select which mode), it hangs, then says "error: can't read from file .... press any key to continue". I press a key, and it just sits there. I've tried two installs, it booted after the second, but once I activated the broadcom driver, it did it again. So I had to re-install, again.how to prevent that from failing again?

I've restarted Apache after making changes to the php.ini file (/etc/php5/apache2) and no changes are reflected in phpinfo() which indicates that I am editing the correct file. I'm quite familiar with the process as I've done it many times before with no issues.

In Ubuntu 910 on my Asus EEE-PC1005HA, I notice that during boot, when the screen is dark between the plain Ubuntu logo and the animated purple screen, there is a brief message:udev[488] cannot read file (rest of message goes by too fast for me)This doesn't seem to hurt anything. My system has been working just fine for a long time. I don't know how long the message has been there. Perhaps it merely lengthens boot time? Should I care? If I should care, where might the message be logged (so that I don't have to photograph the screen)?
