[Solved]Ctrl+V not working in libreoffice on gnome(non-latin layout)

When using gnome-shell&libreoffice or calligra, universal keyboard shortcuts such as ctrl+v or ctrl+z don't do anything while on a non-latin layout(hebrew in my case).
If I want to paste something with ctrl+v I have to change layout to English and only then will it work.
Under MATE the shortcuts work fine regardless of the layout in both applications(and all others i have tried).
Under GNOME Shell all other applications I tried accept the shortcuts regardless of the layout(Firefox, gedit, Empathy, Nautilus)
Anyone has an idea as to what might cause this behavior when using GNOME?
Thanks.
EDIT: Solved for libreoffice by removing the package "libreoffice-gnome". UI is not as pretty now but at least the keyboard shortcuts work.

After months of switching layouts and banging my head against this bug, I thought I should check LibreOffice settings (I'm using 4.1.5.3 now). What figures? I did find something. And in just a few clicks.
This is not a bug! It's simply a matter of configuration.
For the regular keyboard shortcuts (like Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, etc.) to remain operational in LibreOffice applications while using a non-latin keyboard layout (like Greek or Russian), go to Tools -> Options -> Language Settings -> Languages, check the Ignore system input language option, save, and Bob's your uncle.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
PS
Technically, though, shortcuts still remain language-dependent. This means if you enable this option, you will have to set your document languages manually.

  • Portege R500 - Ctrl Key not working

    Hi Guys
    I have two toshiba portege r500 which have never really be used since purchase about 2 years ago.
    Today I get one out to start using it and find the ctrl key is not working which I thought was strange.
    After a little browsing I could not find a solution so I simply got the other identical laptop out and starting using that only to find the exact some problem.
    The laptops are both running XP.
    One of which I have reformatted and uninstalled the keyboard driver to see if that would solve the problem but it did not.
    Any others. Many have suggested that it may be due to a damaged keyboard cable but I think it would be highly unlikely that they would both break in the same way.
    Thanks in advance

    Connect an external USB keyboard and check if the button would work.
    If the button can be used with external keyboard then the internal keyboard is faulty and needs to be replaced.

  • Ctrl key not working properly

    Hi,
    I have an HP Pavilion 17-e031sa Notebook PC purchased only 2-weeks ago and running Windows 8.  The ctrl key is not working as it should.  I would typically use it together with the left mouse key to highlight non-consecutive items for copying, but it will not work for this function.  It doesn't seem to be the key itself as it does work in the alt/ctrl/del combination.  I have tried uninstalling the keyboard driver and rebooting, but without success.  Any help would be appreciated.
    This question was solved.

    Hi riggy69,
    Sorry for the confusion, I knew those hotkeys wouldn't do the function you were looking for. I wanted to know if those shortcuts worked using the Ctrl key. This way we can see if it that particular function is working or all the ctrl key shortcuts are working. Did any hotkeys do what they were supposed to do? For example, does Ctrl+X cut the selected text or does Ctrl-Esc open the start menu?
    Trying to see if there is something wrong with the key itself or is someone is wrong with that particular function you are trying.

  • Alt-Ctrl-C not working, InDesign CS3, Windows

    Hello,
    We are currently running Adobe Design Premium CS3 and are having a hard time getting the keyboard shortcut Alt-Ctrl-C to work in InDesign.
    I do have the ATI Catalyst control center application running at startup on my Windows Vista PC, however even though I have disabled hot-keys within this application Alt-Ctrl-C still fails in InDesign.
    Just in case the ATI application was still intercepting the key press event I tried both changing the hotkey that ATI responds to and closing the application all together. Still InDesign refuses to accept Alt-Ctrl-C
    Any ideas?

    The solution is to STOP ATI Catalyst from starting up in the startup menu when booting XP.
    I had the same problem and it was ATI Catalyst that was the offender. It has a built-in shortcut key of CTRL + ALT + C that is set to open the program and it overrides the one in InDesign.
    People have tried to disable the shortcut keys in Catalyst, but in all honesty, you just do not need the thing open until you actually want to use it. It is sitting there are a memory hog.
    I solved the problem by going into the Start Menu of XP and taking it right out of there so it doesn't start up at all. This then leaves ID free to use the shortcut of CTRL + ALT + C.
    You can also go to the START button, then RUN, then type in MSCONFIG, and select the last tab on the right: Startup. Then disable the ATI Catalyst check box. Close out of everything and do a reboot of your system.
    Hope this helps those with the problem.

  • Solved rEFInd does not work after update

    Hello.
    Today, I updated rEFInd with yaourt.
    After the update, I copied the new files in /boot/efi.
    I rebooted and now rEFInd does not work.
    The only message I got is:
    rEFInd - Initializing
    After 2-3 minutes, the computer reboots and I got the same error message.
    To boot, I had to use the UEFI shell.
    First of all, is there a log file for rEFInd?
    It is not easy at all to debug it when we don't have any error messages.
    After that, I did the procedure to install rEFInd in /boot/efi twice without any success.
    Do you know what to do to solve my problem?
    Thanks for your help.

  • E72 - Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V not working in browser

    yesterday i updated my nokia e72 mobile to latest firmware 31 , after that Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and Ctrl+A shortcut keys are not working in browser. which have made me feel as bad as typing the same text again and again (usfel in blogging or web messaging).
    ALthough these shortcut keys are working in notes and sms application, but not in browser and Quick office applications (word, ecxel etc).
    Can some one tell , how to fix it. or do i need to wait for next firware update. firmware 31 was released on 31 of march 2010. and today is 26th of May. almost two months have passed, and nokia has not yet released patch for this bug ....
    Nokia, how long i need to wait ?, for this bug fix release.

    (Had to edit because didn't read previous post clearly.)
    I originally thought this was a problem of Quick office 6.2.217 Nokia_S603.2. I think it is a Nokia firmware problem as the previous post had stated.

  • [SOLVED] luks-passphrase not working after update

    SOLVED: Hard drive was damaged. new hard drive ''fixed'' issue
    Hello,
    i updated my arch on 2015-06-05. After restarting my cryptsetup does not accept my password anymore.
    No key available with this passphrase.
    Searching the forum i found a couple of simular topics, nevertheless none of them offered a solution to the problem:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=169408
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=175737
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=148562
    So the solutions that did not work so far:
    1. Downgrading cryptsetup package
    2. Downgrading kbd package
    3. Checked that my keyboard works just fine (both in grub and in live system)
    4. Manualy loading the aes modules in live system to ensure correct decryption (found that issue somewhere...)
    Unfortunatly i did not backup the luks header file.
    So i don't know if there is some other way to check if the header is broken or how to find out why it will not decrypt my disk.
    I am happy for any solutions or ideas

    Do i need to convert this to binary or something to use it...?
    Assume Filesystem/dev_sda2 is the partition to decrypt.
    So to decrypt the partition directly with master key i have to do one of the following, wasn't sure which hash to take...:
    echo "0 `blockdev --getsz Filesystem/dev_sda2` crypt aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 `echo SomeEncrypt | sha256sum | head -c 64` 0 Filesystem/dev_sda2 4096" | dmsetup create luks_volume
    echo "0 `blockdev --getsz Filesystem/dev_sda2` crypt aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 `sha256sum forum_key_hex | head -c 64` 0 Filesystem/dev_sda2 4096" | dmsetup create luks_volume
    as i found on:
    http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions … master-key
    (approved by you in the comment as it seems)
    But both give me an error:
    device-mapper: resume ioctl on luks_volume failed: Invalid argument
    Command failed
    Did i even do this right?
    Also when i copied the partition to an external device dd_rescue observed 6 errors in blocks. So those might just be the cause of failure all the time.

  • Key combination Ctrl-Home Ctrl-End not working.

    vim has a default binding for <Ctrl-Home> goes to the beginning of the file and <Ctrl-End> for the end.
    However, I couldn't get these key combinations to work for me. And I've consulted the #vim channel on freenode.
    They said it maybe a problem that the terminal I'm using caught the key and didn't send it to vim, but I find this conjecture hard to believe, because I've since been testing several terminals including xfce's default, roxterm, tilda, lxterminal, lilyterm ... and none of them working.
    Later when I reboot I found that, even under the pure console (tty), the combination still doesn't work !
    So this must be a problem from the original key mapping itself, and not latter stuffs like xfce, terminals and editors etc...
    can anyone help me fix this ? I've also seen the wiki articles but unfortunately they aren't very helpful.

    The <C-{Home,End,Left,Right}> key combinations work in Xterm, but not in urxvt. All of the terminals that I recognize mentioned above are all VTE based terminals. This thread here:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … +bug/89660
    is showing a lot of people with gnome-terminal, also VTE based, as not working either. It's definitely a terminal issue.
    The following page explains how to get Vim to recognize key combos that are usually trapped or unmapped by the terminal:

    I downgraded to kernel 2.6.29 and the problem is gone.

  • 2007 MacBook Pro ctrl key not working

    Hi all,
    I have used various iterations of bootcamp with my 2007 macbook pro without problem. I have also sucessfully installed Windows 7 64-bit using bootcamp and got it working almost perfectly (sound, video, magic mouse) despite it not officially being supported by the version of bootcamp that came with Snow Leopard.
    My only problem now is that the control lkey isn't working. I've tried various keymappers to map it to another key (generally the Apple key) to no avail. And when I say it isn't working, I mean it's not working at all. Key mappers don't recognise when I tap it, I can't Ctrl-C to copy or Ctrl-anything to anything.
    I have installed the Apple keyboard driver and everything else works perfectly, including the F-keys, Fn, alt and the Apple key (which opens the start menu). Any suggestions for how I could fix this would be greatfully received.
    Thanks,
    Alexis

    Sadly it turns out that it's not working in OS X either. I had convinced myself it was a software issue but it is apparently hardware. Shows how seldom the control key's used in OS X doesn't it.
    If anyone has any suggestions as to how I might have a bash at fixing it, please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Alexis

  • CTRL+HOME, CTRL+END not working correctly

    I'm trying to use the CTRL+HOME and CTRL+END key combinations on my HP Spectre 13-3010dx. Unforturnately, when I press the combinations, they are not taking me to the beginning/end of a document in MS Word, nor the beginning/end of an Excel spreadsheet. Instead they are moving the cursor one character to the left or one character to the right respectively. It's as if the CTRL key is being ignored.
    Any help with this would be appreciated.

    jsnFloida,
    Welcome to the HP Forum.
    You may have discovered the answer by now -- Whether the keys work is tied to your Num Lock setup.
    Solution:  Disable the Num Lock key so your other keys on the Key Pad work as required
    Many of our new keyboards lack the nice little light that indicates whether the Num Lock is enabled.  This is annoying to say the least.
    Your Windows key is the key down near the bottom left of your keyboard -- it looks like a Window Pane.
    ==================================================​=========================
    Windows key + U (Opens Ease of Access) > Make the keyboard easier to Use >
    Under section Make it easier to type
    Select (Check) Turn on Toggle Keys
    and
    Select (Check) Turn on Toggle Keys by holding down the NUM LOCK key for 5 seconds
    Click Apply
    Toggle keys setting:
    A "high" tone sounds = the NUM LOCK key is disabled.
    A "low" tone sounds = the NUM LOCK key is enabled.
    Example:
    Click the NUM LOCK key, hear the low tone, and think to yourself,
    "Ah, tone down low, down page = Page Down"
    When the Num Lock key is disabled, the other keys work -- like your Page Down, Cntrl-Home and Cntrl-End keys.
    This also switches on the Caps key tones.

    When you copy 10-evdev.conf file into /etc/X11 you completly override previous system configuration. It's the reason copying synaptics configuration file into /etc/X11 fixes the issue
    Defining default system configuration in /etc/X11 with previous xorg was a mistake, now it's fixed.
    Wiki should be fixed. It's not a packaging bug, but a configuration bug.
    @lordheavy
    I agree with you that the new xf86-input-synaptics package is using the right configuration scheme, however it is breaking the functionality on every installed system. It was a packaging bug, which is now fixed, but it has to be handled manually by most users of previous versions. That's why I won't re-open the bug report FS#41589. Instead, I am asking here: shouldn't this change be notified to the users just like it has been done for most breaking changes on archlinux frontpage news?
    By the way, thanks for your great work.

  • Keyboard Satellite 3000-214 - Ctrl-key not working

    Hi,
    I've started my old Satellite 3000-214 Notebook and suddenly my Ctrl-key did not work anymore.
    I've already tried to clean the keyboard by unmounting all keys from it and cleaning the foils, without success.
    Can anyone tell me where I can get a suitable keyboard from (I live in germany)?
    Does it has to be an original Toshiba keyboard or can it be from an other manufacturer?
    How can I remove the keyboard from the laptop? Do I have to open the case or is it possible to get it out with a screwdriver or something?
    Thx for any hint!
    Best regards.
    Ting

    Hi
    You should use the original Toshiba keyboard which is supported and compatible with this notebook.
    All parts and devices you can purchase from the Toshiba authorized service partner in your country. The full database with worldwide ASP you can find on the Toshiba European support page.
    Usually if you want to remove the keyboard you have to remove firstly the thin cover above the keyboard.
    There you will find two screws which secure the keyboard. After removing of these two screws you will be able to put out the keyboard.
    But be careful; the keyboard is connected with the flat cable to the motherboard.
