Keyboard keymap reverted to default (US), ignoring xorg.conf

Hello there fellow Archers!
My first post on this forum but certainly not the last! I'm a new user of Archlinux, just switched from Xubuntu so bear with me if I seem a bit lost.
Update: I might have posted this in the wrong forum. Wasn't really sure where to post it since my problem is dealing with both unstable and git packages. If so, plesae move it to where it's best suited!
Anyway, this is just one of the few problems that I haven't managed to figure out on my own, yet. I'm a proud owner of a Acer Aspire One, but since not everything is working out-of-box I'm experimenting with git packages that I've been compiling with the help of ABS.
Whenever I start X, the keyboards keymap is reverted back to default (US), even though it seems it does read the xorg.conf, as seen in the log below. Funniest thing is, when I run 'setxkbmap -v 10' this is what I get:
Setting verbose level to 10
locale is C
Applied rules from xorg:
model: pc105
layout: se
Trying to build keymap using the following components:
keycodes: xfree86+aliases(qwerty)
types: complete
compat: complete
symbols: pc+se
geometry: pc(pc105)
Suddenly the keymap is set correctly, according to what I've specified in xorg.conf.
Anyone got any ideas?
Cheers!

I presume you won't jump to testing straight away coming from Ubuntu, so I will move this. If you *are* running testing please state so explicitly in your post so we can set things straight (again ). The testing forum is intended for people using that repository. If you build a package using git or whatever version control or snapshot thingy out there and it is *not* in the testing repository (as in: the exact same version you are using) then it is not a testing problem. That is, after all, why it says [Testing] Repo Forum.
While the fact you use unstable stuff might be related to your problem, it is more probable the shift from Xorg.conf-based device handling to HAL-based device handling with the latest Xorg is the culprit . These are things Ubuntu will obscure easily, to not bother the user (or it might not have the latest Xorg yet alltogether, I don't keep in touch with Ubuntu's packages).
As for the solution, mektub pointed you to it. As for your other problems: consult the wiki and the Acer Aspire One thread in these forums, be sure to read the beginner's guide in the wiki too, so you have some background on how things work in Arch (and how we expect you to use it; the package manager is not the only thing that sets Ubuntu apart from Arch).
Also - I think mektub was relating to your fresh appearance on the forums rather than to your skill level. He can't see that, he can see the date on which you joined .
Have fun, and welcome to Arch .

Option "ctrl:nocaps" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf ignored

Hi all,
I have a single-user laptop, so I'd like to configure my X keyboard layout and options globally instead of doing it for any WM/DE I might happen to use. And most importantly, the desktop manager (GDM) should already use my layout. So my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf contains this section:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev keyboard catchall"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "dvorak"
Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
EndSection
The result is that I have my German Dvorak layout in GDM and in whatever WM I choose there. However, the ctrl:nocaps option seems to be ignored. In GDM, CapsLock is still CapsLock, not an additional CTRL. Why not?
Here's the Xorg.0.log in case that might shed some light. (Well, it actually only shows that the options seems to be applied to all keyboard devices...)

Yes, exactly. I do get the Dvorak layout that's set in 10-evdev.conf, but not the ctrl:nocaps option that's set there as well.

[SOLVED] Keyboard repeat messed up after update to Xorg 1.6

Did anyone else notice the keyboard repeat rate and delay changed after the update to Xorg 1.6? It takes longer to start repeating and the rate is lower (at least in a terminal). This happens both in xmonad (started through xinit) and KDE (started through gdm).
xset q has the same output in both xorg 1.5.3 and 1.6:
auto repeat delay: 660 repeat rate: 25
The weird thing is, I don't think this is the true delay and repeat rate in effect when using xorg 1.5.3 -- it reacts much faster than that.
After the update to xorg 1.6, I started KDE (though I seldom use it) and played around with the keyboard settings in the 'SystemSettings' control panel. I guess the delay closest to the old one is about 300.
Does anyone know how to get the old settings back? I had to downgrade to 1.5.3, since this drives me nuts.
EDIT: Doing xset 250 25 helps a bit, but doesn't feel quite right.
EDIT2: Might be related to this http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=67759

Explicitly define your keyboard in xorg.conf and don't use evdev but kbd.
You just need to add to Section "ServerLayout"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
And add the section
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Maybe one of those CoreKeyboard definitions is redundant.
For that I'd have to also add Option "AutoAddDevices" "off" to ServerLayout.
That's not really the problem, I was using evdev with xorg 1.5.3 and everything was fine. What I'd like to know is, what was the default delay and repeat rate in xorg 1.5.3, so I can set it in xorg 1.6.0 (with xset or something).
Thanks for your suggestion, though.

After upgrade, options in xorg.conf seem to be ignored

I have a dual-monitor configuration. Although similar, both screens are not identical, so I wanted the slightly larger screen to be the primary screen, and on the left side.
After the installation of Arch Linux, the default configuration was the opposite, i.e. the smaller screen, which is on my right, was identified as the primary screen, and displayed the left part of the desktop. So, I looked for some solution, and I came up with the options "RightOf" and "Primary" which I wrote in the xorg.conf file.
The contents of that file are below:

I had not had any problem upgrading Arch, until today that I upgraded my system, and the configuration seems to be ignored, since the screens were switched.
If I manually execute the command:
xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --right-of DVI-0
I get the configuration I want, so it seems that either the options "RightOf" and "Primary" are being ignored or the entire file /etc/X11/xorg.conf is ignored.
As extra information, I leave information on my system
$ lspci | grep VGA

$ xrandr -q

I had not had any problem upgrading Arch, until today that I upgraded my system, and the configuration seems to be ignored, since the screens were switched.
If I manually execute the command:
xrandr --output DisplayPort-0 --right-of DVI-0
I get the configuration I want, so it seems that either the options "RightOf" and "Primary" are being ignored or the entire file /etc/X11/xorg.conf is ignored.
As extra information, I leave information on my system
$ lspci | grep VGA

Bluetooth problems: prefs revert to defaults after reboot

Hi there,
I have a strange problem with Bluetooth and wireless input devices. I have set up Apple wireless keyboard and mouse, and also ticked "Show Bluetooth status in the menu bar" in Bluetooth preferences. However, after I reboot bluetooth icon disappears from the menu bar, and Magic Mouse prefs revert to defaults.
Apart from that, I am not able to tick "Allow Bluetooth devices wake up this computer" in Preferences – Bluetooth – Advanced.
What can it possibly be?
Before that I had the same issue with Dock (its icons would return to a certain state every time after reboot, no matter how I'd change or rearrange them before restarting). I managed to solve Dock issue by trashing Dock .plist files. I guess it may be the same with Bluetooth, but I don't know which .plist to trash this time (tried deleting com.apple.Bluetooth.plist, it doesn't work).

I don't have a logitech mouse, but is it possible that the mouse is going to sleep during the reboot, and is thus unavailable when the OS is looking for it?

Suddenly my keyboard layout reverts to US?

A while back I set my keyboard layout to UK by creating /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-keyboard.conf with the following contents:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Keyboard Defaults"
MatchIsKeyboard "yes"
Option "XkbLayout" "gb"
EndSection
This has worked fine for a long time, but suddenly it has stopped working for no apparent reason.

ximun wrote:Does the gb layout work if you set it manually with setxkbmap?
shaurz wrote:Yes, setxkbmap gb works.
how about adding setxkbmap gb to your .xinitrc ?
Dirty hack? yeah, I know
Say, if you change the "gb" to another thing, like "es" or "fr" on your conf file, does that work? Im wondering if is a problem that affects only gb, or it affects other layouts too

[SOLVED] lost my keyboard keymap after upgrade

Hi!
After this upgrade (xorg among them), my keyboard is set to english again,
- in rc.conf the keymap is correctly set to sv-latin1
- typing loadkeys sv-latin1 in the terminal does not help
- if I log in as root, typing in the terminal gives me the right keyboard?
So I dont get it what could be missing here,
even during boot it says loading keymap sv-latin1 OK
Last edited by m4co (2010-06-23 12:49:03)

Both the keymap you see in rc.conf (which is the keymap applied when booting) and loadkeys have no effect on X. You're probably after setxkbmap.
Anyway, xorg-xserver no longer makes use of hal. See http://www.archlinux.org/news/502/. Identical thread here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=99556.

When I close CS6 changes in settings are not saved. Reverts to default settings on reopen. Why?

Sorry Photoshop -- Problems solved -- I read the details -- turns out you need to make changes with no files open for the preferences to apply to all files.

Call park music on hold reverts to default after server reboot

Hello,
We are noticing that if you define Music on hold for the Park service, the call park music on hold reverts to default sound after server reboot. (all systems we've tested do this)
Anyone using park music on hold that can verify one way or the other?

Android 2.2 Reverts to Default email settings when roaming - Droid Incredible

When traveling with my Droid Incredible and want to send an email the phone often will lose my SMTP settings. At the same time it reverts to default settings for send / receive which means it will delete messages from POP server! Is there a roaming setting somewhere on this?
PF

In order to better troubleshoot, we need additional information. Can you please advise what E-mail provider you are using? Can you advise where and when this has happened most recently? If the issue persists, please contact us while you are in the area affected, as we would need to determine what network you are accessing at the time, along with additional information. You can feel free to call us from a secondary phone at 800/922-0204 or DM me with a secondary contact number (other than your wireless device) so that we can conduct additional troubleshooting.
Thanks,

[CLOSED] Unable to set keyboard layout from /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/

This is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-keyboard.conf:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "keyboard-layout"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
Option "XkbLayout" "cz,us"
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle"
EndSection
I wrote the according to the wiki recommendations, but it doesn't work. Issuing setxkbmap -layout "cz,us" -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle" automatically after logging in serves as a temporary solution, but I'm highly interested in fixing the primary issue. I would greatly appreciate if someone helped my find the error in my config file and/or posted their way to change the xorg keyboard layout in order to compare it with my way and find the error. Also note that I'm using Awesome WM so desktop environment ways of setting the keyboard layout aren't applicable in my case.

@chris_l: Thank you for your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/01-keyboard-layout.conf.
I have found out that the actual problem isn't in the configuration file but in the actual keyboard (more accurately xorg) - the keyboard gets incorrectly identified and xorg seems to think that it's a pointer (mouse). When I connect a different keyboard, the layout gets set correctly, xorg just isn't setting the keyboard layout correctly to the keyboard that I use. I have filed a bug report so this thread can be considered closed.

Adding a "revert to defaults" button

jpdk 1,3
I'd like to add a "revert to defaults" button
on my customize page. When I use PortletRendererUtil.renderCustomizeFormHeader(pr, out, null, "action", null, null) Only the 'apply' and 'ok' buttons are rendered. Do I have to do it manually or is there a utility I can use to do this?
thanks,
-sancho

You are right - the PDK article "Guidelines for Portlets in Edit Mode" describes such a button, which currently the JPDK doesn't support. Looking at some of the default portlets on a Portal home page, it would seem that the convention is now for this button to be called "Reset to Defaults". I have logged bug 1771249 against the JPDK and bug 1771238 against the articles to sort out these issues.

Indesign CS6 printer settings reverting to default

Hi
We have a problem which has started recently for some students when printing from Indesign CS6. Most of them have print presets which they created months ago for printing to the default printer using secure print, A3, heavyweight paper, bypass tray etc. They were working fine, but now, when they print a document using that preset it just prints on standard paper and normal (not secure) print.
I checked their print presets and in the setup for the printer within the print preset the settings have changed to the default settings. If I delete the preset and create another one any changes I make in the setup / preferences for that printer revert back as soon as I click 'Ok'. A work around I have found is that when I click 'setup' if I click on any other printer, then click back to the correct (default) printer, then click preferences and make the changes they stick and do not change back to the default settings.
This issue happens without using print presets as well, If you choose file / print and then setup, and you do not click on any other printer and then back again to the correct printer before clicking 'preferences' any changes you make will revert to default as soon as you click 'Ok'
It only seems to be affecting Indesign.
The printer is a Xerox Docucenter C6680, using the PCL 6 driver on a print server. We are also running Papercut.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? I have tried trashing the Indesign prefs but this does not seem to help
Cheers
Murray

THere appears to be a Postscript diver for this printer. Have you tried that?

Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...

Outlook 2013 custom view reverting to default at random times

I have a customer who uses very specific view columns, color coding, and ordering to go with some custom addins. Every couple of months, his default view settings saved under "userdefaultview" will revert to default for no apparent reason.
Windows updates are not causing this as there is no time correlation.
System restore has worked once in the past, but is not working right now.
User is on Outlook 2013 connected to Exchange 2010 through an onsite server. He only uses one onsite desktop, and remotes in with other devices due to the large amount of customization on his Outlook client.
Thank you.

since Outlook 2003, the view settings information is stored in the mailbox or PST file. it may be difficult to determine the root cause because this issue happens every couple of months. the cause may lie with the client side or the server side.
to work around it, try to back up the custom views to a pst file which we can use to restore the views if this issue occurs. see:
http://www.outlook-tips.net/how-to/copy-outlook-custom-views/
after the backup, we can also try starting outlook with outlook /cleanviews and wait to see if it will fix the issue.
