Fluxbox and the Win key
Alright... Having just dumped GNOME 2.8 for Fluxbox and ROX, I have a little question about Fluxbox: can its keys file be configured so that pressing the Win key alone, with no other key, will bring up the menu? I suppose I could just use some other combo as usual, but I'd like the Win key to have some use...
Gullible Jones wrote:The problem is, the Win key seems to require a key to modify... Any way to make it so it doesn't need a modifier?
Hmm...good question. I used the "mod4" key with another key to pull up a menu in fluxbox. But, I guess your asking if you can just use the "mod4" (win) key alone by itself without pressing another button with it? I never tried that.

I disabled Aero theme, checked font scaling was 100% and rebooted Windows in between all of the steps to no avail.
I've been reading a lot around this and it seems the arrow key problem is a red herring; I think it's just some kind of terminal preferences corruption. -
Since installing LTR 5.4, which I've now upgraded to 5.6, I've encountered repeated slowness and malfunctions in operations, especially when using the Compare View function and the Tab key to open and close the right and left side panels. Such problems never arose during two years of using LTR-4 and nothing else has changed on my computer. I have a pretty simple system with only a few plug-ins, which are usually not in operation. I have 12GB of RAM in my Windows 7 PC. I could illustrate these problems with screen shots if you would tell me how to submit screen shots. Otherwise I will try to describe the problems in words.
The problem is clearly cumulative, growing worse as usage time passes. Compare View feature gradually slows down and eventually seems to choke as my work session proceeds. If I Exit LTR and re-enter and start all over, things will work normally for maybe 30 minutes, but then the Compare View feature begins to become very slow to respond. In a recent example with my screen full of thumbnails in Library mode I highlighted two images to compare. LTR started to open the Compare View screen by first having the top row of thumbnails disappear to be replaced by the "SELECT" and "CANDIDATE" words in their spaces (but no images), but Compare View never succeeded in gaining control of the screen. After some seconds the top row of thumbnails reasserted its position and the Compare View windows disappeared. But LTR kept trying to bring them back. Again the top row of thumbnails would go away, Select and candidate would reappear, try again, and give up. This went on for at least 2-3 minutes before I tried to choose File and Exit, but even that did not initially want to respond. It doesn't like to accept other commands when it's trying to open Compare View. Finally it allowed me to exit.
To experiment I created a new catalog of 1100 images. After 30-40 minutes, the Compare View function began to operate very slowly. With left and right side panels visible and two thumbnails highlighted, hitting Compare View can take half a minute before the two mid-size images open in their respective SELECT and CANDIDATE windows. When the side panels are open and two images are in the Select/Candidate spaces, hitting the Tab button to close the side panels produces a very delayed response--25-30 seconds to close them, a few more seconds to enlarge the two images to full size. To reverse the process (i.e., to recall the two side panels), hitting Tab would make the two sides of the screen go black for up to a minute, with no words visible. Eventually the info fields in the panels would open up.
I also created a new user account and imported a folder of 160 images. After half an hour Compare View began mis-placing data. (I have a screen shot to show this.) CANDIDATE appears on the left side of SELECT, whereas it should be on the right. The accompanying camera exposure data appears almost entirely to the left of the mid-screen dividing line. Although the Candidate and Select headings were transposed, the image exposure data was not, but the data for the image on the right was almost entirely to the left of the line dividing the screen in two.
Gurus in The Lightroom Forum have examined Task Manager data showing Processes running and Performance indicators and they see nothing wrong. I could also send screen shots of this data.
At this point, the only way I can process my images is to work 30-40 minutes and then shut down everything, exit, and re-start LTR. This is not normal. I hope you can find the cause, and then the solution. If you would like to see my screen shots, tell me how to submit them.

Problem with RSA/AES and the wrapped Key
Hallo!
For a server-client communications, I would like to use a hybrid encryption.
For this I create an object of a serializable class that contains several properties, including the data that are to be transferred from A to B (Object, encrypted by AES), and the AES key, but wrapped by RSA (byte []).
My basic problem is, that if I send the wrapped key, I get at the destination another byte array and thus the key can not be decoded:
java.security.InvalidKeyException: Invalid AES key length: 256 bytes
When I look at the string representation of the byte array before sending and immediate after receiving, the byte arrays are diffrent. Why?
Extract from the encrypt method:
TransportObject obj = new TransportObject();
KeyGenerator keygen = KeyGenerator.getInstance("AES");
SecureRandom random = new SecureRandom();
keygen.init(random);
Key key = keygen.generateKey();
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA/ECB/NoPadding");
cipher.init(Cipher.WRAP_MODE, publicKey);
byte[] wrappedKey = cipher.wrap(key);
// Here I put the byte array in the object to be transmitted
obj.setKey(wrappedKey);Extract from the decrypt method:
/ / Here I read the byte array from the received object
byte[] wrappedKey = obj.getKey();
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA/ECB/NoPadding");
cipher.init(Cipher.UNWRAP_MODE, privateKey);
Key key = cipher.unwrap(wrappedKey, "AES", Cipher.SECRET_KEY);Here is the class that is serialized:
import java.io.Serializable;
public class TransportObject implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 5044061539587999682L;
private byte[] key;
private String type;
private byte[] data;
public static final int STRING = 1;
public static final int INT = 2;
public static final int CHAR = 3;
public TransportObject() {}
public TransportObject(byte[] key, String type, byte[] data) {
this.key = key;
this.type = type;
this.data = data;
public byte[] getKey() {
return key;
public void setKey(byte[] key) {
this.key = key;
}Sending is done via:
TransportObject obj = rsa.encrypt(objectToSend, keys.getPublicKey());
ObjectOutputStream os =
new ObjectOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream());
os.writeObject(obj);
os.flush();Receiving via
ois = new ObjectInputStream(
new BufferedInputStream(socket.getInputStream()));
TransportObject obj = (TransportObject) ois.readObject();
Object receivedObject = rsa.decrypt(obj, keys.getPrivateKey());Somehow, I hang down here.
Do I overlook something? Do I have an error in reasoning?
Thanks for any help!

1. Don't do this. The general problem has been solved. The solution is called TLS, and Java provides a API called the JSSE for you to use.
2.If you insist on rolling your own, don't specify NoPadding. Use PKCS1Padding. If you are going to use NoPadding, then you must provide your own padding scheme, which you have not. -

my "go to in point" and "go to out point" keyboard shortcuts are not working, and the default keys aren't either? any help would be amazing! I use these keys a million times a hour and since I have switched to cc I cant get them to work. track selection makes no difference or if there are markers on the timeline or not.
Anyone else feel me on this?
any help?Well that still didn't make any kind of difference. I would just do without it but I've becomes really use to it with Avid for so long. I have to admit there are a lot of small moments like this that makes me miss Avid. Any other suggestions? I have checked the keyboard shortcuts a few times and maybe I'm just missing something here...

What, if anyting, does pressing the windows flag key and the "r" key do?
Last night some one with a very strong accent called, addressing me by name, saying he had been contracted to contact people and warn them of a serious problem that affecting many computers. He wanted me to press my windows flag key and the "r" key at the same time. Stupid me did, but then became suspicious and hung up on him. He never called back, and I turned my computer off. Did I give him access to something? What do I need to do?
This question was solved.
View Solution.I'm sure that was a scam call, but you hung up before they could do anything malicious to your computer. Pressing the Windows key + R just brings up the "Run" screen. It is completely harmless to bring up "Run," but if you had continued to follow all the steps this guy was about to give you, he probably would have tried to gain remote access to your computer or load a virus or some other awfulness. I'm glad you hung up on him!
Please click the thumbs up button to say "Thanks!"

My MacBook Pro keyboard is giving trouble. The 0,p,;,/ and the enter key, needs to be pressed several times before registering. Help me please??
If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it. Out of warranty, your keyboard may need cleaning. Use a vacuum hose or a can of compressed air to get the dirt out from under the keys. For instructions to remove the keys if it comes to that check out the following websites:

Search YouTube for Macbook Pro “How To” tutorials.
If you do not want to DIY, take your MBP to your local AS or an AASP. -

Using iPhone/iPad Recovery Mode

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

My Ipod touch froze and now the screen showa a symbol like a tiny flower. I have tried to re-start it by holding down the on/off switch and the selections key together for 10 seconds but nothing happens. Ithe Ipod does not show on Itunes but shows in My Computer. When plugged into USB the Ipod gets warm.

This happens in any text entry window, but there is no problem with Wordpad or Word or other apps, just in Firefox. It's like the keyboard mapping has gotten fouled up in Firefox, but I can't find where I might check what is going on.
You may have '''Switched ON Caret Browsing'''. press '''F7 (on Mac: fn + F7)''' to toggle '''Caret Browsing ON/OFF'''

the built-in keyboard on my macbook is not functioning right, the number keys when pushed display the special characters instead of the numbers,
the caps button doesn't work at all, the letter buttons display capitals when pushed whether the caps button is on or off, the shift keys are also out of whack!!
It seems it somehow got relocated to the "0" button because if you push and hold the zero button down the keyboard seems to operate normally, the number keys display numbers when pushed the letter keys display lower case when pushed but release the zero button and your back in the twilight zone!! Can anybody help me resolve this issue? one more thing im using an external usb keyboard right now and it seems to function properly if that helps any.You would do better in the actual macbook pro forums (this is not).

I've had this computer since october of 2013 or so and I have just recently run into this problem. I use the volume keys on the keyboard and I hear the tick sounds and it shows that its going up and down but the volume doesn't actually change. I've looked in the "sound" settings and everythings seems to be correct... I can't adjust the sound in their either though. I pay too much to be having an issue like this.
Possible? Yes. Likely? I'm not sure.
In my house, I would suspect that either one of our pets chewed on a cable or dislodged a connector, or somebody bumped a connection loose, but then I would expect either no volume at all or hum from a grounding problem. Clear, non-zero constant volume is harder to explain.
You say adjusting the output volume directly in the Sound settings or on the menu bar also has no effect on the audible output?
You might want to go ahead and answer the question about connections. Somebody else might come along who recognizes a possible problem with the particular combination you are using. I don't have exactly your model of Mac Pro or display. (Is yours the Apple LED Cinema Display? Which size?)
