[SOLVED]can't "rewind" command with holding arrows on keyboard.

I hope to make myself as clear as I can: when I hold arrows on keyboards (in game for example) I can only move 1 square, when it should go until I release arrow.
Same in console, I can't "rewind" command when holding arrow, I have to keep pushing it until it gets where I want it.

you mean terminal history browsing? Well this isn't a solution to your problem, but you could always use bang commands or command history search, which has eliminated my use of the arrow keys.
For your particular problem, what terminal emulator are you using? And what's the config?

[SOLVED] Can't sign key with pacman-key

I've been reading and digging all over the place but I can't seem to find anything on this.
1. I have created my own keys for signing packages that I want to put in a local repo so I don't have to compile the same package over and over on all my machines.
2. I have imported said key using sudo pacman-key --add rdjack21.pgp
3. Used sudo pacman-key --lsign rdjack21 I get this output:
-> Locally signing key rdjack21...
==> ERROR: rdjack21 could not be locally signed.
4. Ok so lets sudo pacman-key --edit rdjack21 output:
gpg> sign
pub rsa2048/3D1B5544
created: 2014-11-30 expires: never usage: SC

Are you sure that you want to sign this key with your
key "Pacman Keyring Master Key <pacman@localhost>" (645ECB0E)
Really sign? (y/N) y
gpg: signing failed: No pinentry
gpg: signing failed: No pinentry
gpg>
5. To hack this and make pacman work with my local repo signed by the rdjack21 key I had to change the trust to ultimate but I do not like that solution. I would prefer to sign the key and move the trust back down to full which is where it should be.
This is happening on all of my boxes not just one of them. I did find something on the web about "No pinentry" message above and the sugestion was to change the owner of the tty I'm using to be root for the signing to work but that did not work for me (su'ed to root first instead of running everything with sudo).
While changeing the trust works that just feels wrong to me. I really should beable to sign the key.

Taking a clue post gnupg 2.1.0-4 upgrade breaks passphrase via STDIN I was able to solve the problem and I can now sign keys.
The solution is add "pinentry-mode loopback" to /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/gpg.conf
And create the file /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/gpg-agent.conf and put "allow-loopback-pinentry" in the file.
Once that is done everythings works as expected!
Marking this as solved.

[SOLVED] Can't start pulseaudio with other users?

I am having trouble getting pulseaudio to start using a different user. The user "corey" can run pulse just fine. After logging out and logging in on user "tv", running pulseaudio --start returns this error message:
E [autospawn] core-util.c: Failed to create secure directory: Operation not permitted
W [autospawn] lock-autospawn.c: Cannot access autospawn lock.
E [pulseaudio] main.c: Failed to acquire autospawn lock
So it seems this user does not have permission? I can't imagine why, both corey and tv are in the audio group and both had active consolekit sessions at the time.
I don't know if this is relative information but I'll throw it out there anyway. I have a multiseat configuration with 2 seats, 1 at my desktop the other for my tv however for right now I am just logging into the display at my desktop. I followed most of the relative information about pulseaudio and multiseat from this page on the gentoo wiki (including editing the config files Xstartup and Xreset): here
consolekit though seems to be acting wierd, right now ck-list-sessions produces this:
Session3:
unix-user = '1000'
realname = 'Corey Teetor'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = ''
active = FALSE
x11-display = ':0'
x11-display-device = '/dev/tty7'
display-device = ''
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2012-02-17T06:19:44.835923Z'
login-session-id = '4294967295'
Session1:
unix-user = '1001'
realname = 'The Television'
seat = 'Seat1'
session-type = ''
active = TRUE
x11-display = ''
x11-display-device = ''
display-device = '/dev/tty1'
remote-host-name = ''
is-local = TRUE
on-since = '2012-02-17T06:13:33.618814Z'
login-session-id = '1'
it says that the session for corey is not active even though i am logged in right now and pulse is running. I am a bit confused...please share your wisdom with me!

[SOLVED] Can't start compiz with gnome

When I set up gnome initially, I used the following wiki guide:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Co … k_Users.29
I had some issues after upgrading to gnome 3.8 that have now since been solved. I wen't through quite a bit trying to fix it and now somehow compiz isn't starting with my gnome/compiz session. It starts just fine if I run
$ compiz ccp --replace
after logging into the session. I think I'm simply not understanding how this session that I've installed works (or .session files in general).
here is my /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-compiz.session:
[GNOME Session]
Name=GNOME Compiz
RequiredComponents=compiz;cairo-dock;gnome-settings-daemon;
RequiredProviders=notifications;
DefaultProvider-windowmanager=compiz
DefaultProvider-notifications=notification-daemon
I tried removing cairo-dock from the above file just to make sure that this is the file actually being used and it did start up without the dock as I guessed. Obviously this file is being used. Why won't compiz start as well? I also tried adding gnome-panel to the file and gnome-panel did not start. Is this because it needs a .desktop file as well? I assume so.
Here is my /usr/share/xsessions/gnome-compiz.desktop:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=GNOME/Compiz
Comment=This session logs you into the GNOME desktop environment with Compiz and Cairo-Dock
Exec=/usr/bin/gnome-session --session=gnome-compiz

and here is my /usr/share/applications/compiz.desktop:
[Desktop Entry]

Last edited by instantaphex (2013-05-04 20:59:44)

So I started to think that maybe compiz was actually starting up but the ccp argument wasn't taking. I ran
$ pgrep -l compiz
and got no output. So compiz really isn't starting at all. What gives?

[SOLVED] Can't left-click with mouse (but I can on a tablet)

On a recent update, I noticed that my desktop would not detect my mouse's left-click. It correctly detects middle-click and right-click, however. On the other hand, I can left-click with a tablet.
How can I make it so that it will detect both the mouse and tablet's left-clicks?
I'm using evdev for the mouse, and linuxwacom-bamboo for tablet drivers.

[SOLVED] Can't execute scripts with Thunar/XFCE. (Runs OK in terminal)

Until recently, I could double-click a script (or link to a script) in Thunar or on the XFCE desktop, and it would execute
Now, however, when I double-click a script, it opens in Leafpad (my text editor). I've browsed the wiki and searched the forum and web, but can't find any clues as to what has changed or why this is happening.
I can right-click in Thunar and use the "Open With>" option to set the script to open with another application, but there's no obvious option to run a script. Opening with a terminal emulator results in a brief hourglass, then nothing.
The script I'm testing with (the Tor Browser Bundle startup script) is in my /home/myname directory, has -rwx------ permissions (with me as the owner), and the file type in Thunar shows "shell script". It runs fine if I execute it in a terminal with "sh /path/to/script" -- just not via Thunar or the XFCE desktop.
Can anyone suggest anything I could check?

This is an intended change in Thunar 1.6.5: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7596#c15
Thunar 1.6.6 has a hidden option to restore the old behavior: http://git.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/commit/?id=b385bcf
The option is called misc-exec-shell-scripts-by-default and can be set using xfce4-settings-editor or by following the instructions here:
http://docs.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/hidden-settings
Thanks so much for the explanation!
I tried creating "misc-exec-shell-scripts-by-default" in the Settings Editor, set to true, but it didn't seem to have any effect. So I tried this in a terminal, also to no effect:
xfconf-query --channel thunar --property /misc-exec-shell-scripts-by-default --create --type bool --set true
If I right-click on a script, the top item on the menu is still "Open with Leafpad". Do I somehow need to change the default behaviour to "execute script"...? I've searched but I can't seem to find any further information.
I guess it's not a big deal, but it would be nice to restore the default behaviour.

[SOLVED] Can you wrap commands for sudo?

Is there a way to wrap commands for use with sudo, such that my below command would work:
$ sudo (pacman -Sy && pacman -Su)
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `pacman'
Note: The above is just an example of what I want to do, I would normally use 'pacman -Syu'
Last edited by deltaecho (2008-09-15 06:18:24)

You could simply alias it with pacman. This is what I do, and I know I'm not alone.
In .bashrc:
alias pacman='sudo pacman'
And I also have it set to not ask for a password with pacman in my sudoers file.

[SOLVED] Can't use scrot with a shortcut in Xfce

I don't need to be bothered by a dialog and browsing to my screenshots directory every time I want to take a screenshot, so I've tried to set a keyboard shortcut in Xfce that lets me simply put a screenshot in the directory for me. However, nothing seems to be happening.
I've set the command to be just plain old 'scrot' (and '/usr/bin/scrot' just to be sure) as suggested on the Arch Wiki and have tried the format suggested in the scrot man page. Neither works, and I can't figure out why. As a point of information, the
scrot '%Y-%m-%d.png' -e 'mv $f ~/shots/'
suggested by the man page doesn't work because it says that --.png is not a valid option. So it would seem that the calls to strftime are being interpreted wrongly or at the wrong time?
Thanks for any help.
Last edited by JeSuisNerd (2012-03-31 23:55:38)

What if you create a script like this:
#!/bin/bash
scrot '%Y-%m-%d.png' -e 'mv $f ~/shots/'
Make it executable:
chmod +x the_script
Then try it in the terminal and see if you get a screenshot, if you do, then modify the key bind in xfce to run:
/home/username/the_script
And see if it works that way. It's not really a solution if it works, because you need the script.

Q ? key commands with the new small keyboard ?

Does the new small wireless work properly compared with the extended keyboard with logics default key commands ? Is it just like working with a laptop ? If anyone can help I would appreciate it thanks .

They key commands are the same for the smaller keyboard as they are for the laptop; nothing is different.
If you go to your system's library /Library/Application Support/Logic/Key Commands/ ...
you will see a bunch of different Key Command files with the extension '.logikcs'
You could get yourself a keypad too, I've seen them online and at the Apple store; or, if you have an iPhone or iPod Touch, you could make that be your keypad; then you can implement using the the 'U.S.logikcs'

Mac Mini set-up - how can I do this with a new wireless keyboard

Hi,
I have just bought a mac mini and a mac wireless keyboard. Unfortunately, it appears that to set up the mac mini I need to register a username etc which requires a keyboard. However, to set-up the keyboard I need to get past the set-up screen!
Can anyone suggest how I might solve this problem?
Thanks!

Executing commands with game controller

How can I map commands (such, uname -a for example) to the buttons on my controller?
So far, I've gotten xf86-input-joystick to work with the following in my xorg.conf
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Dualshock2"
Driver "joystick"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/js0"
EndSection
and the following in the ServerLayout section
InputDevice "Dualshock2" "SendCoreEvents"
But for some retarded reason, xorg just seems to consider my controller to be another mouse: I can move the pointer with the arrows, buttons 1, 2, and 3 act as mouse buttons, etc.
I know I set xorg.conf to map keyboard keys to separate buttons, but how do I map commands? For example, I want to map "mpc toggle" to the start button (button 9).

ok, I solved this myself
I just had to remap each button on the controller as another mouse button; for instance
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Dualshock2"
Driver "joystick"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/js0"
Option "MapButton1" "button=9"
Option "MapButton2" "button=10"
Option "MapButton3" "button=11"
Option "MapButton4" "button=12"
Option "MapButton5" "button=13"
Option "MapButton6" "button=14"
Option "MapButton7" "button=15"
Option "MapButton8" "button=16"
Option "MapButton9" "button=17"
Option "MapButton10" "button=18"
Option "MapButton11" "button=19"
Option "MapButton12" "button=20"
Option "MapButton13" "button=21"
Option "MapButton14" "button=22"
Option "MapButton15" "button=23"
Option "MapButton16" "button=24"
EndSection
so, that's that
from there I've been able to map each button to a command using xbindkeys
axis 1 (left stick) controlls the pointing, and the right stick seems to do scrolling

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
