Epiphany and non-working back/foward mouse buttons

Hi guys. I checked out and used the following wiki page to get my back/foward mouse buttons to work. It didn't work.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … ns_Working
I have a Logitech M510 mouse. The back/foward buttons work in Chrome, Firefox and Midori but not Epiphany. How can I get them to work? I tried the following:
Thumb Buttons - Forward and Back
Note: The following maybe redundant depending on whether xev detects all your mouse buttons correctly (functions can be mapped on a per-app basis) or you want to change the default behaviour.
To do this we need to map keystrokes to the desired mouse buttons and install xvkbd and xbindkeys.
# pacman -S xvkbd xbindkeys
In most modern applications which use back/forward features, XF86Back is mapped to back and XF86Forward is mapped to forward by default. On most MX mice the thumb buttons resolve to 8 & 9. If your mouse is different, check button numbers using xev and replace the numbers used in the example (b:8 & b:9).
So if you have an MX mouse you would create the file ~/.xbindkeysrc, containing:
# Mouse Buttons
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[XF86Back]""
m:0x0 + b:8
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[XF86Forward]""
m:0x0 + b:9
Now to test... Run the following command and if it works as expected remember to add xbindkeys to .xinitrc or somewhere where it will be executed each time X starts. Also, this should work with Epiphany and Konqueror without any additional configuration or use of imwheel.
Then I tried the xmodmap tweaking and that still didn't work. I'm not sure what to do next. I am starting to use epiphany more and more because firefox formatting isn't accurate on some sites I go to. Epiphany renders it correctly.
When I add the device settings in xorg.conf, it wont allow me to start X. No screens found. My xorg.conf is blank other than what I was shown to put in there from the wiki page. So I'm completly lost.

Looks like this is a known BUG in Epiphany and apprently it's fixed for 3.8. Check https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337852 for more information.

  • Enabling back/forward mouse buttons in Dolphin

    Hi,
    I am new to Arch and am not completely sure yet on how to go about providing a solution that I found. I've searched the Wiki and the Forums for this issue and wasn't able to find a solution through any Arch site. I was, however, able to find a solution posted on the KDE forums and would like to share it with anyone who is suffering the same issue.
    The original forum post can be found here: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=85430. I will summarize it here though for convenience.
    First, you must install xautomation which can be downloaded at http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=7312 and xbindkeys, which can be installed using Pacman.
    Next, create a text file named .xbindkeysrc and save it to your home directory. The content of the file should be:
    # For the benefit of emacs users: -*- shell-script -*-
    # xbindkeys configuration #
    # Version: 1.8.0
    # If you edit this file, do not forget to uncomment any lines
    # that you change.
    # The pound(#) symbol may be used anywhere for comments.
    # To specify a key, you can use 'xbindkeys --key' or
    # 'xbindkeys --multikey' and put one of the two lines in this file.
    # The format of a command line is:
    # "command to start"
    # associated key
    # A list of keys is in /usr/include/X11/keysym.h and in
    # /usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h
    # The XK_ is not needed.
    # List of modifier:
    # Release, Control, Shift, Mod1 (Alt), Mod2 (NumLock),
    # Mod3 (CapsLock), Mod4, Mod5 (Scroll).
    # The release modifier is not a standard X modifier, but you can
    # use it if you want to catch release events instead of press events
    # By defaults, xbindkeys does not pay attention with the modifiers
    # NumLock, CapsLock and ScrollLock.
    # Uncomment the lines above if you want to pay attention to them.
    #keystate_numlock = enable
    #keystate_capslock = enable
    #keystate_scrolllock= enable
    # Examples of commands:
    "xbindkeys_show"
    control+shift + q
    # set directly keycode (here control + f with my keyboard)
    "xterm"
    c:41 + m:0x4
    # specify a mouse button
    "xterm"
    control + b:2
    #"xterm -geom 50x20+20+20"
    # Shift+Mod2+alt + s
    ## set directly keycode (here control+alt+mod2 + f with my keyboard)
    #"xterm"
    # alt + c:0x29 + m:4 + mod2
    ## Control+Shift+a release event starts rxvt
    #"rxvt"
    # release+control+shift + a
    ## Control + mouse button 2 release event starts rxvt
    #"rxvt"
    # Control + b:2 + Release
    # dolphin go back
    "xte 'keydown Alt_L' 'key Right' 'keyup Alt_L'"
    b:9
    # dolphin go forward
    "xte 'keydown Alt_L' 'key Left' 'keyup Alt_L'"
    b:8
    # End of xbindkeys configuration #
    You then need to create an autostart entry in /home/user_name/.kde4/Autostart named xbindkeys.desktop containing the following code:
    [Desktop Entry]
    Comment[en_US]=
    Comment=
    Encoding=UTF-8
    Exec=xbindkeys
    GenericName[en_US]=
    GenericName=
    Icon=
    MimeType=
    Name[en_US]=
    Name=
    Path=
    StartupNotify=false
    Terminal=false
    TerminalOptions=
    Type=Application
    Version=1.0
    X-DBUS-ServiceName=
    X-DBUS-StartupType=
    X-DCOP-ServiceType=
    X-KDE-SubstituteUID=false
    X-KDE-Username=
    X-KDE-autostart-after=kdesktop
    Now just reboot your computer and you should have back/forward mouse button functionality in Dolphin.

    I know this thread is really old but I got the mouse buttons working using this solution (I have a 9 button mouse):
    Firs make sure you have xmodmap installed on your system:
    # pacman -S xorg-xmodmap
    Then create the following shell script: ~/.kde4/Autostart/xmodmap.sh
    #!/bin/bash
    xbindkeys -e "pointer = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9"
    then make the script executable
    $ chmod +x ~/.kde4/Autostart/xmodmap.sh
    Restart KDE and hopefully the forward and backward mouse buttons should be working.

I have no clue why it says this and I have searched the internet for fixes and none worked. I have tried on a windows and a mac and noticed no change. I have tried restoring to a backup but that didn't help. I haven't had time to do a full restore but I will try if the problem persists.

  • [SOLVED] Thunar 1.6 doesn't drag-and-drop with the right mouse button

    Hallo all.
    It might be something I've done (though I did delete my ~/.config/Thunar directory before upgrading), but Thunar doesn't let me drag-and-drop with the right mouse button, thus stopping me from copying something instead of moving it, etc. Has anyone else had that too?

    Come on! Read what GordonGR wrote!
    Microsoft Windows, Nautilus, the Haiku Tracker, and probably many other file managers have a feature where, when you right-click or middle-click and drag an icon to a new location, a pop-up menu appears and asks what you'd like to do (Move, Copy, Link). I thought I used to use this feature in Thunar too but it seems to have stopped working in recent versions. Has anyone else had any experience with it?
    EDIT: Here's random blogger talking about the feature in an older version of Thunar: http://jeromeg.blog.free.fr/index.php?p … and-tricks So that's good, I wasn't just imagining the feature.

  • Everytime i press and hold my left click mouse button, it automically highlights everything from that point to the top of the page

    Every time i press and hold my left click mouse button, it atomically highlights everything from that point to the top of the page. Also note, if i'm holding the left click on the scroll bar it goes back to the initial location even when i try to drag it up or down.
    Opened up internet explorer and the problem does not occur there.

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>

  • Completely frustrated with downloan not working and deleting and attempting to reinstall resulting in three different accounts on my computer and none working.

    I downloaded Firefox mobile to my Droid. Connected to computer and followed instructions, using code provided on phone. Did not work. I tried to re-sync phone. It didn't work. I deleted Firefox on phone and reinstalled app. The connected phone to computer to re-sync. Could not get anything to work using"I have an account" tab so opened up another sync account. It didn't work. I deleted app again and tried again and used a third sync account to sync phone with computer. I got nowhere. Completely frustrated with three sync accounts and none working.
    Need help to delete all accounts and start over. Can't seem to find a way to do this.
    Thanks in advance.

    Colin,
    I tried this (opening in Photoshop CS5 and resaving as jpg) as you mention:
    The remedy to this problem has usually been to open the image (the one that is having an identity crisis) in Photoshop or another image editor, and simply resave it. You don't need to edit it or rename it or anything--just open and resave.
    Re-imported and it does work fix (I get picture1 and picture2 instead of  just picture1 for all pictures).
    Having said that, I looked at all the file properties I could for:
    picture1.jpg (original)
    picture1.jpg (resaved in CS5)
    To see what changed. All are properties are identical (color depth, pixel size, etc.) except that resaved image is ~20% larger (I saved max file size jpg in CS5).
    So original is ~6MB
    resaved jpg is ~8MB
    So the question - why can't CS5 premiere import these directly (with resaving?) and what is working with the resave that locks up the first time?
    These pictures are straight from a Canon 50D, with no editing or resaving - dumped off camera to computer.  I can reproduce this error 100% of the time (new project, new folder, import 2 pics) so it isn't something goofy with the way I'm importing - 100% how premiere is handling this.
    Very disappointed that I now need to open/resave/rerender each of ~1100 images to simply use them.  Given that these jpgs are being produced by a mainstream camera with support image format.
    Any thoughts?

  • Changing working and non-working days

    Hi
    I am trying to make a permanent (default) change in working and non-working days. I am living in Israel and our non-working days are friday and saturday. I want to configure these as the non-working days so I won't need to do it manually via the change work
    time menu.
    Thanks
    Chen

    If you are using project server then you can do it permanent from 
    PWA --> Server Settings --> Enterprise Data --> Enterprise  Calendar then
    You can configure either your stranded calendar or create a new calendar in which you can make Sunday to Thursday as working days and Friday and Saturday as non working days.
    You have to do it manually. There is no tool available which will do the same for you.
    Where as if you are using Microsoft Project professional stand alone then for every plan (MPP file) you have to do it.

  • HT3310 I have an iphone 5. Speaker works but I cannot hear through the apple earbuds. Tried multiple earbuds and none work. But they work in other iphone 5.

    I have an iphone 5. Speaker works but I cannot hear through the apple earbuds. Tried multiple earbuds and none work. But they work in our other iphone 5.  Has anyone been able to resolve this without pursuing a replacement ?  If so what was the fix?

    You're not using a supported carrier. What did you think Apple was going to tell you?
    As fizzDripper suggests, contact the SIM card provider. How to make an unsupported SIM work on your phone is not Apple's problem.

  • IPod Touch Troubles: Tried Various Fix Methods and None Work

    Well anyways, when I first bought my iPod Touch there was a problem regarding this, but was resolved in a matter of hours. Now the same problem cam back, and keeps coming back every day. Onto the problem. Now sometimes when I try to turn my iPod on, it won't turn on and the only way to get it working is to put it into recovery mode. While in recovery mode there is no way to restore or update my iPod (even after entering DFU mode) the only way to get it working from this point is to let the iPod "cool-down" by a long term of inactivity and hoping for the best when I press the power button. Another problem with it is that sometimes while using the iPod it freezes up on a song, or while I'm using the touch screen to navigate. The freeze sometimes displays a blank white screen and this also forces me into putting the iPod into restore mode and the only temporary fix is the one I mentioned earlier. Sometimes it even freezes when I connect/disconnect it from the computer. So DFU mode restore doesn't seem to work when I can actually get it to restore and so doesn't regular. The iPod itself isn't jailbroken or hacked or anything, just having major bugs. Now I bought the iPod at around December at a Target and I'm still looking for the receipt. Is there anything I can do to solve these problems, or Apple could do about them? (My next bet was bringing it up to the Apple Store and hoping they could do something) Please respond, and thanks for the help.

    It's time to have your iPod serviced.
    You can set up an appointment with a Mac Genius (http://apple.com/retail) or call AppleCare.

  • I updated to v4. When I try to view my bank statement, a "blank tab opens". I tried several things and none worked. I re-installed v3 and it works just fine. Why am I having this problem in v4?

    The file is a .pdf. My bank lets me "view" my monthly statement. It opens in Adobe, and I save the file. Since I updated to v4, all I get is a blank tab. I updated Adobe Reader and the Adobe plug in. Still get a blank tab. I un-installed v4 and installed v3.6.1.6 and it works just fine. I'd like to use v4, if I could get this problem solved. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You.

    Did you post from the system that has the problem? (Your "More System Details" list shows Flash 11.7 instead of 11.8 for some reason.)
    This is some standard guidance that addresses the most common issues with Flash in Firefox. I'm sure you've seen some of it before, but just in case:
    (1) Make sure all recorders/downloaders that interact with Flash media are as up-to-date as possible, or disable them.
    (2) Disable hardware graphics acceleration in Firefox and in Flash ''(I see from your post that you've done this part)''
    (A) In Firefox, un-check the box here and restart:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > General > "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    (B) In Flash, see this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    (3) Disable protected mode (Windows Vista/7/8)

  • Lync 2013 call forwarding (working and non-working scenario)

    Hi guys!
    We are trying to solve a non-working scenario in Lync 2013 voip calling.
    SCENARIO 1 that does not work:
    Person A with a mobile phone calls Person B who's telephone number is not located on Lync SIP TRUNK. Person B answers the call and then he wishes to transfer this call to Person C. He call Person C until he hears call ringing tone from him
    and then he transfer this call to him. When Person C answer the call he does not hear Person A and call get's disconnected after cca. 20seconds.
    SCENARIO 2 that does work:
    Person A with a mobile phone calls Person B who's telephone number is not located on Lync SIP TRUNK. Person B wishes to transfer this call to Person C who's number is located on Lync SIP trunk. In this scenario he first wait that Person C
    answer/accept his call, then he transfer call from Person A to him. This way Person C is able to hear Person A.
    Anyway how to figure it out if this is a problem on provider side or on Lync 2013 server side?
    with best regards,
    bostjanc

    Refer support wasn't set to none.
    If we change it to none, and restart Mediation service, unfortunatelly there are no differences.
    We have also tried editing: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Lync Server 2013\Mediation Server\MediationServerSvc.exe.config

        </appSettings>
      <runtime>
        <generatePublisherEvidence enabled="false"/>
      </runtime>
    </configuration>
    But that didn't do anything useful.

  • Strange issues with iOS5 and non-working Buttons

    I upgraded my iPhone 4 to the new iOS yesterday. Since then:
    In the app store, under updates when I click the button to update the apps that need updating the button does not work.
    ALSO
    In Newsstand I click on the store to look at what's available. I click on any of the available subscriptions and they dont do anything. No option to download or anything.
    Thanks for any advice!

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.
