Hal Fam and Gdm with Openbox?

Is Hal, Fam and Gdm anything exclusive to Gnome or can it be used with Openbox aswell?
I want to have full folder update in realtime, automatic usb-stick mounts/dismounts and a good looking login manager.

hal is more or less a dependency of Xorg anyway.

Switching between VTs kills Xorg and GDM restarts

Hi,
since yesterday I noticed some sort of severe problem of my system. I am still trying to locate the reason why this all happens.
My problem looks like this: Every time I switch from X to a VT everything looks fine. But once I want to switch back to X, it dies completely and GDM restarts.
So far so bad, first I thought GDM is creating this and downgraded it to 2.22. That didn't help, so back up to date.
But I activated its debug modus to receive this output:

Once I switch back, GDM reloads and I get the same output with GDM stating nothing why this happened.
I looked through all log files without finding anything obvious. My problem is, that I am not sure if it is GDM doing this or some buggy configuration of a programme doing rubbish...
Some helpful advice will be nice.
Regards,
Simon

Problem solved temporarily:
I downgraded all X.org packages related to the recent update for xorg-server 1.9. Since then GDM doesn't seam to crash. Otherwise I noted that 1.9 is not much of a matured release yet. I read many instability issues here.
Btw, would a mod like to move this thread to update issues? This thread will better fit in that section.
Thanks

Question about udev,hal, hotplug and new Xorg 1.8

From what I understand the hal .fdi files now are ignored since the last upgrade of Xorg to version 1.8. Before that, I used to modify .fdi files and then restarting hal to get the modifications to work. I did this to configure my joystick and synaptics for example.
How I'm supposed to do that now with this new system? I've been trying with hal and the fdi files, but are totally ignored (as expected) and making changes to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-name-here.conf works but I have to restart X.
According to this the configuration for input devices should be done by .conf files on xorg.conf.d/ or udev rules.
The Xorg input hotplugging from the wiki is kind of outdated too because it's all about the deprecated hal so I don't understand how I'm supposed to configure and work with the hotplugging...
I hope someone can make this a little bit clear :) (or tell me that I'm really lost)

Not what I'm looking for really, because if I change the Xkblayout for example (or if I create a new file), the change only works after restarting X. My joystick for example, doesn't work and create a new inputclass only works after restarting it.
I know that I can change the keyboard layout some other way while using it using setxkbmap, but still, I'd like to know how it is supposed to use the "hot" plug.

How do you manage power with Openbox on laptop?

What do you use to check the battery power with Openbox. On other distros, there is generally a popup when the battery has reached a low level.
I would like to know how other people manage it. Do you try to reproduce other distro's behavior?
Last edited by Gradient (2013-05-19 22:58:15)

For the extra lazy you could always just use xfce4-power-manager and some kind of taskbar with a tray. Though I think this kind of goes against the whole idea of setting things up in manually in a customized way.
I use i3, and the default i3status (the program that feeds info the i3bar) has an option for battery levels. I made it so that it turns blood red when I get to a certain percentage. In terms of a total WM agnostic solution, you could always just have a cronjob run a script that checks the level, then throws up an xdialog box telling you about low battery levels, and then even have it shutdown/hibernate/suspend at a certain level.

Hooking GNOME (and GDM) into initrd

Hello, Arch users!
My name is Kenny Strawn. I'm sure you've seen me on LinuxQuestions.org, but I haven't been getting much help there with my issues with Arch, so I decided to take it here where, hopefully, it will get more attention.
My problem is this: I was able to make a custom Arch installation from Ubuntu by unsquashfs-ing the Arch CD image directly to an external hard drive (and its mount point), chrooting into the drive to install my needed/wanted packages (such as GNOME, GDM, Shotwell, LibreOffice, Screenlets, Rhythmbox, and others), rebuilding the initrd (which involved passing hooks to a config file, which is [hopefully] what I need to do to get GDM to start), and installing/updating GRUB to the SimpleTech 500GB external drive. I did have a problem getting Arch to boot, but hopefully I got that fixed by rebuilding the initrd.
Here's my problem: I can't get GDM to start, even if dbus is running. The error message is something like:
***(gdm-binary)***: /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket: No such file or directory
Just what hooks do I need to pass to mkinitcpio to get D-Bus, GDM, and GNOME to run at startup? So far, I haven't gotten any help on LQ with this issue. I certainly know Linux, but am new to Arch.

As eldragon said, dbus and gdm can both be simply added to the Daemons towards the end of /etc/rc.conf
Or you could set up ~/.xinitrc and /etc/inittab and have gdm start that way. dbus will always need to be a daemon in rc.conf though.
Arch is a little different than a number of distros in that it uses the BSD style init system. You should really read over the beginners guide, so you have an understanding of how the basic system is laid out.

Hal ntfs and USB-HD

Hello,
I converted FAT32 into NTFS on my USB-HD. So now KDE find the HD, but it can't mount it.
su -c "mount /dev/sda1 /media/TRANSFER/ -t ntfs-3g -o rw,sync"
This works fine and then the icon will appear on the desktop
I read some other forums and I think there should be something to change into HAL policies, but my experiments failed.
Any better idea?

zenlord wrote:I like it very much and since I try to help with the little stuff that I know, I made the suggestion.
I appreciated your suggestion, indeed. Much better than unanswered post
Edit
I fix my HAL policy and now it works as charm
I don't know where to find an original to show here the diff, perhaps I may publish it entirely on my web site (on demand)

[SOLVED] rc.xml: & ampersand and # hash break Openbox keybinding URL's

I'm trying to get a keybinding to work in Openbox's rc.xml, so that when I press W-XF86Mail it opens a Google documents spreadsheet.
rc.xml:
<keybind key="W-XF86Mail">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>firefox https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AjuCrdYnTCyacGNfX0FuRzBFUnBOalNxS0VXYjJhVUE&hl=en#gid=3</execute>
</action>
</keybind>
Other keybindings in the same file work fine. But when I reconfigure Openbox I get an error message "One or more XML syntax errors were found while parsing the Openbox configutation files...". After reconfiguration, I press W-XF86Mail and it starts Firefox but opens the wrong URL - the first bit is correct but the last bit reads ...key=0AjuCrdYnTCyacGNfX0FuRzBFUnBOalNxS0VXYjJhVUE=en instead. As you can see the last bit &hl=en#gid=3 is missing. If I delete the & ampersand then the hash # character seems to cause the same problem. Is there a problem with using the ampersand or hash characters in keybindings?
Last edited by dameunmate (2010-09-04 14:24:50)

thanks for the tips, I've now got the right page to load when I type the command into the urxvt terminal. But it still doesn't work with Openbox keybindings, I edit and reconfigure but press the keys and get no response at all. I've checked and the same keybinding will successfully open other programs and webpages. Here's the keybinding in /home/username/.config/openbox/rc.xml:
<keybind key="W-XF86Mail">
<action name="Execute">
<execute>urxvt -e gdocspread</execute>
</action>
</keybind>
I've also tried <execute>urxvt -c gdocspread</execute> and simply <execute>gdocspread</execute> to no avail. However changing the same keybinding command to <execute>urxvt</execute> does open urxvt successfuly.
So the keybinding will open urxvt, and if I manually open a urxvt terminal and type gdocspread firefox starts on my desired web page. So what's the missing link?
NB: About the ampersand:
For some reason even from the terminal it won't work with the ampersand, but I discovered that I can leave that out as it just defines the language. However for future reference it would be useful to know how to put an ampersand in a URL. This is the code that does load the correct page:
home/username/.bashrc
# Check for an interactive session
[ -z "$PS1" ] && return
alias ls='ls --color=auto'
PS1='[\u@\h \W]\$ '
gdocspread() {
firefox https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AjuCrdYnTCyacGNfX0FuRzBFUnBOalNxS0VXYjJhVUE&hl=en#gid=3
Interestingly the URL etc...key=0AjuCrdYnTCyacGNfX0FuRzBFUnBOalNxS0VXYjJhVUE&hl=en#gid=3 and the URL etc...key=0AjuCrdYnTCyacGNfX0FuRzBFUnBOalNxS0VXYjJhVUE&hl=en#gid=3 won't load, the URL gets cut off at the ampersand.
Furthermore it's interesting to note that in the above configuration file /home/username/.bashrc only the ampersand causes problems, but in /home/username/openbox/rc.xml both the ampersand and the hash characters cause the URL to be cut off.

[SOLVED] Screenlets with Openbox

[SOLVED] SLiM background no longer persists with Openbox

Hello,
I've been using SLiM and Openbox in conjunction for a while now, and one of the features I really liked was how, after logging in, the slim theme would become the Openbox desktop background.
(I didn't set up any configuration file to do this. It happens by default, and as far as I know it might be a bug.)
Recently, I decided to try out some other login managers. Eventually, I decided to return to using SLiM.
Now, however, after logging in, Openbox blanks the screen, replacing the SLiM theme with the default grey background.
I don't know if one of the other login managers modified some configuration files, or if something completely different is happening.
In short, I have two questions:
Has anyone else experienced this behaviour between SLiM and Openbox? If so, can anyone confirm whether or not the persistent background is a bug or intentional?
What files cause Openbox to blank the screen on startup? How could I disable this?
Thanks in advance for your help/input, everyone.
Last edited by Dekusola (2014-08-05 20:49:08)

I'm pretty sure this behavior is a bug. I use SLIM and if you don't set the background after you log in, the SLIM background will persist including any prompts that might pop up (try pressing F1 to bring up the WM selection prompt and then log in to see what I mean).
I use hsetroot from the AUR with Openbox to set the background at start up by putting it in ~/.config/openbox/autostart.
There are also other similiar programs you can use to set the background with openbox like nitrogen, feh, to name a few. Take your pick.
Here is the relevant section from the openbox wiki page https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Op … d_programs

Open report with "Save as" and "Open with" dialogue

Hi,
I'm using jasper reports within my application. I manage to open them in a new window but in that case the url containing JasperServer username and password is shown. I would like to open the report without showing the url.
I tryed using a database procedure (http://sqlcur.blogspot.com/2009/02/jasperreports-in-apex.html) but all I get is a alert window saying "file does not begin with ' pdf-'". Couldn't see what is the problem (I used the same procedure as Ino has in his example) so I thought of another way. Is it possible, when someone clicks a button to open a report, to open that report with a "Save as" and "Open with" pop up window?
The javascript function that I use:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function openLAPopUpJasper(url){
w = open(url,"winLov","toolbar=false,menubar=false,location=false,resizable=yes, //scrollbars=yes,status=yes,fullscreen=true");
if (w.opener == null)
w.opener = self;
w.focus();
</script>
Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content?

Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content? By anyone, I mean someone who can download and use the free Adobe Reader, on either a Mac or PC. I have Acrobat Pro, and would like to be able to create forms that can not only be filled out and printed, but saved and emailed, which is not an option with the forms I have created to date. They can be filled out, but not saved, with Adobe Reader.
TIA,
Nancy

To do what Dave indicated you need to do, it depends on what version of Acrobat you have:
Acrobat 8: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
Acrobat 10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
Acrobat 11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)
I wonder what it will be next time?

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
one more bug in a complicated system I guess
