[SOLVED] Emacs `forward-sentence' broken?

Hello there,
at least for me the behaviour of the `forward-sentence' function (normally bound to M-e) in GNU Emacs doesn't work right.
After pasting the following paragraph to a buffer
wikipedia wrote:Maximilian Karl Emil "Max" Weber was a German sociologist, philosopher, and political economist whose ideas influenced social theory, social research, and the entire discipline of sociology. Weber is often cited, with Émile Durkheim and Karl Marx, as among the three founding architects of sociology.
I place the cursor to the beginning of the paragraph, i.e. just before "Maximilian". Then pressing M-e brings the cursor to the end of the paragraph. But the intended behaviour is to bring the cursor to the end of the first sentence, i.e. after the first "sociology", right before "Weber", isn't it? Is this a bug I should report?
I tried this after starting up emacs by
$ emacs -Q
Emacs version 24.3.1
[EDIT]: Post on the mailing list: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.help/93608
[EDIT2]: It's solved: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.help/93612

[SOLVED] X11 hid support broken on fresh macbook install

Hi!
The solution was elementary indeed, I was missing xf86-input-keyboard and xf86-input-mouse. (looooooooooool)
What bugs me though, is how this could happen to an already working system. From what I remember I didn't touch those drivers on my previuos system, I guess I installed them and forgot about them, but why would they break from a system update? Anyway, I guess that's nobody's concern by now. Thread solved.
Old title: X11 hid support completely broken after system update. Now, I've completely reinstalled the system but the error remains. Please read the post below.
I've a problem with X11 support for input devices since running pacman -Syu 2 days ago. This post contains error logs and a description of my attempts to counter the problem. The hardware is a MacBook, first generation. I'm a novice linux user but seasoned with GNU and a quick learner. The solution to this might be simple, but google didn't give me anything usable. All forum threads I found were either unsolved or irrelevant.
This is what has passed. (long story short, may or may not be relevant, my current problem is explained below)
* After the first reboot since the system update, X11 didn't give me anything except a movable cursor. The screen was completely black using the xmonad wm, and when using twm, it was completely distorted with blue patterns. I start searching for sources of the trouble.
* ALSA and pommed complain about driver errors during boot. I can't read the messages because they skip by too quickly. I remove them from rc.conf because I prefer dealing with one problem at a time.
* modprobe complained about framebuffer_blacklist.pacsave having an erroneous extension in /etc/modprobe.d. It actually loaded both the .conf and the .pacsave. I tried swapping between this .pacsave (is it the same or opposite of a .pacorig, btw?) and the .conf. Obviously modprobe stopped complaining when there was no erroneous extension, but I didn't notice it fixing anything else. I'm unsure whether the framebuffer is even relevant.
* I decide that the problem didn't have anything to do with modprobe. I don't know what happened exactly during this phase, but for some strange reason, the graphics cease to be jumbled. twm starts the default programs, but is not interactive. I could move the mouse, but no mouse buttons were working. Keyboard not working at all.
* I decide to wipe X11 and hal. I also rm -rf:ed /usr/share/hal, /etc/hal, /usr/share/X11 and /etc/X11 (yeah, I got angry).
* Reinstalled X11 and hal. Also rm -rf:ed /usr/share/hal, /etc/X11 and /usr/share/X11 (I got really angry). Stuff works now! However, setxkbmap made everything break again, both mouse and keyboard. I read the output of startx and realise evdev hasn't been loaded, since /usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev is missing. The whole folder structure /usr/share/X11/xkb is actually missing. I randomly hit the target and run pacman -S xkeyboard-configure, which creates the folder structure along with the evdev ruleset.
* The keyboard does not work when using evdev. Temporarily renaming it so that it doesn't get loaded fixes the problem. If I'm not mistaken this makes X11 revert to not-hotplugged keyboard and mouse preferences in xorg.conf (which is auto-generated). The keyboard and mouse then works again (but, obviously, not setxkbmap, and I really need input hotplugging as a laptop user).
* It's getting late, so I shutdown and go to bed.
Waking up today, neither keyboard nor mouse is working - also when not using evdev! I've really no idea where to go from here. I've some output for you to analyze:

Alright, I got fed up and decided to reinstall the system.
Only installed wireless_tools, madwifi, hal, xorg and xf86-video-intel.
Edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf to select the intel video driver.
The mouse and keyboard are still frozen.
Here are some much cleaner Xorg.0.log, xorg.conf and startx_output.log files, I hope it will be easier for any readers of this post to find errors here:
Output of startx:
hostname: Host name lookup failure
xauth: creating new authority file /root/.serverauth.4956

[solved] Non-alphanumeric characters broken in TinyChat

Hello, fellow archers.
I've been having a bit of trouble with the TinyChat site. Most non-alphanumeric characters are being displayed as crossed-out boxes. This problem is exclusive to TinyChat and has not occured in any other Flash applications.
An example of the broken characters:
Note how the / and > characters are not broken.
This is the second installation of ArchLinux on my computer, the problem occured on the current install only. I suspect the problem is caused by a missing package, though the only hint I was able to find was installing the ttf-ms-fonts package (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/br … ash_Player). This did not resolve the issue.
Package versions:
firefox 34.0.5-1
flashplugin 11.2.202.425-1
I'll gladly provide any other information that could help resolve this issue.

[SOLVED] vim completion menu broken

Since I upgraded to the latest vim (version 7.3.138, using the gvim package), the completion menu seems to be broken.
Steps of replication:
1. Stand in directory containing files test{1,5}
2. Open vim
3. :e t<tab>
By now vim should show the completion menu saying that there are five files to choose from, but instead the cursor places itself in the file where I last left input, the command area is cleared and no completion is shown. If I enter anything, the cursor returns to the command line and the command line is redrawn with whatever I enter. If I press tab again, the cursor returns to the command area returns and redraws ":e test", nothing further happens.
The error appears in both terminal vim and in gvim, and persists even if I reinstall using the regular vim package. I ruled out my configs breaking it by resetting them to a couple of months ago, but it didn't help.
vim --version && pacman -Qi gvim:
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/358834/
Is anyone else getting this?
EDIT && SOLVED:
It was my configurations after all. "set wildmenu list:longest" made it break for some reason. Without it everything is peachy. \o/

[SOLVED] emacs-w3m

I'm probably missing something obvious here, but I've installed both emacs-w3m and w3m, yet can't figure out how to use it!
I've tried M-x emacs-w3m, M-x w3m and M-x w3m-emacs. How do I run it?
edit: I googled and solved it by adding the following to my ~/.emacs file
(require 'w3m-load)
(require 'mime-w3m)
Last edited by Barrucadu (2008-06-26 18:02:56)

Yeah I figured that out when I got back home. It was my own fault for running emacs from Run Program in xfce instead of from the Terminal.
However, I've installed that package along with the 75dpi one and it still doesn't work. I even ran fc-cache again just to be sure. Weird.
The error is "Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*" to type FontStruct" So perhaps it's a fontconfig problem. Both fontconfig and freetype2 as up-to-date. Hmm.
[EDIT] I restared X and everything worked. Thanks. I've updated the wiki with the information. I'll send a diff to the maintainer at some point; the PKGBUILD should really tell the user that he/she needs to install these fonts if using X windows

EMac power button broken off retaining ring!

Well, we managed soldered the broken power button cable I mentioned back onto the logic board (we did this by cutting off the connector and permanently soldering the cables to the correct spots on the board, BUT, the power button itself is now broken! Here are pics...
http://pics.livejournal.com/wile_e2005/pic/00056a89/
Behind the button.
http://pics.livejournal.com/wile_e2005/pic/00057fq6/
Retaining ring.
The cable is fine, but now it's the button that is the problem! Does this need to be soldered back on too, or is there some other way? Or should I shell out $20 for a new eMac power button?
It may be the shortened cable that caused this, and I am not sure how this can be worked around.

Is there a way to start the eMac WITHOUT the power drive temporarily? According to this quote from another website...
{quote} The only way to turn it on now is to place a wire (I used a wire twist tie.) that connects the Black and Red leads on the connector for the power button. This is done by placing the wire on the top of the connector where you can see metal showing. This will turn on the Mac. I would recommend turning on the option to have the mac reboot after a power failure and keep it plugged into a power strip that you turn off. (I use mine as a server so I never usually turn it off unless I need to do maintenance.)
So in other words, does this mean I could put a twist tie on the white connector thingy that goes to the power button retainer ring? Or is it more complicated than that?

I finally solved the mystery of broken Flash by downgrading to Flash 10.0.12.36

I'm one of the many users who seems to be having trouble with Flash these days. I solved my issue by downgrading to Flash 10.0.12.36, and I think I figured out why it was happening. I use Firefox 9.0.1, and I believe Flash incorrectly detected this and silently pushed an incompatible new version. Gee, thanks Adobe.
Note: Flash 10.0.12.36 detected my Opera installation but not my Firefox installlation, but manually copying the files from Opera's plugins folder to Firefox's worked fine.
Additional Note: No, I will not upgrade. Stop typing, close your mouth. Don't even start. Take it somewhere else - preferably to another browser's dev team. Firefox has fallen long and hard since the glory days of 1.x, and 9.0.1 is the final usable version of Firefox for me. If you put half as much effort into backporting security fixes to old versions as you put into yelling at people to upgrade, you might have a happy userbase instead of a confused, angry, rapidly shrinking one. It's not the easiest way to build a product, but when was the moral high road ever easy? From my point of view, the browser's job is to unquestioningly enable content. You want to add restrictions and security? That is what addons are for. I have absolutely zero fear of running old versions; between addons and using about:config to excise unwanted Firefox features, nothing suspicious ever gets a chance to become active. I frequent some of the scariest, most infected places on the web and I have not been infected since the 90's. So I do not need to upgrade. You need to downgrade, and get back in touch with your alienated former users, who want a modern browser that looks and acts like Firefox 1.x and would rather scrap a proposed feature entirely than break a single addon.
OK, I feel much, much better now. Time to go watch some Youtube!

You may wish to note that at least some of the problems on any Windows system after Windows XP could relate to the use of FlashPlayers protected mode.
Some users may wish to employ the most recent version of Flash Player that will work on their sytem. in which case it could be worth trying an up-to-date version of FlashPlayer but with protected mode disabled.
The setting is changeable by editing a file ( adding the line ProtectedMode=0 to the Flash "mms.cfg" file) and instructions may be found in these articles
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Flash_Player_11.3_Protected_Mode_-_Windows Probably an interesting reference article to scroll through regarding Flash Problems with Firefox
* http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018071#TemporaryWorkaround Again an article with more Flash Player troubleshooting tips included

[solved] emacs won't start

I'm interested in learning some lisp and it seems like emacs+slime is the way to go (even though I perfer vim).
Seems like there is something weird with my configuration somewhere, because it won't run.
$>emacs
emacs: Invalid visual specification `DirectColor'
$>
I'm not entirely sure what to change, I tried adding "Emacs.visualClass: TrueColor" to /etc/X11/app-defaults/Emacs but it doesn't seem to do anything.
Edit: meh. Forgot that you have to reload the .Xdefaults

I did search. Ok, I suck at choosing the best search terms. I searched again, as you advised, and the answer in this thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=89043 did the trick. Apologies for not finding the obvious. And, as always, thanks for the assistance.

[solved] Emacs in X windows - Characters are not displayed

Emacs works fine when run with -nw.
But when I run it without, in X Windows, emacs does not display characters properly. It just displays those whites boxes with the black borders. The ones you see when you're trying to view characters for which you don't have the right font.
I installed XEmacs, and that worked fine. I don't understand why the normal Emacs doesn't.
I'll post a screenshot when I'm home from work, but you should get the gist of the problem.

[SOLVED] Emacs Configuration

I wanted to set my Emacs theme the default Emacs theme. So, I removed the line on my init.el that changed the theme. I reopened Emacs and my background was dark (gray), instead of Emacs's default white. Very strange, I thought. After lots of attempts to fix it, I ended up removing .emacs.d/, and completely uninstalling emacs, which removed /usr/share/emacs too. Total wipe out.

That's "locate emacs". ~/.emacs.e/ is just a backup for ~/.emacs.d/, nothing is being loaded from .emacs.e, I'm sure.
Either way, "pacman -R emacs" followed by "pacman -S emacs", and the background is still dark:

I have no idea of what to do. I spent a few hours on this already, it's frustrating me quite a lot.
Any ideas? Thank you so much.

Are you getting any strange output if you are invoking emacs via command line?
Also, what DE/WM are you using? I've had some funny colours in emacs and KDE in the past (that was the old KDE, though).
(Btw, why pacman -R and not pacman -Rs?)
Actually, Emacs isn't outputting a single character to terminal. I am using Openbox, and also tried Awesome WM, it worked the same.
(I didn't know of -Rs, thank you )

[SOLVED] emacs - gtkfilechooser

All of a sudden I am getting a very strange message on opening files for emacs.
(emacs:4970): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to read filechooser settings from
"/home/wpt/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini": Permission denied
I installed the templates package for emacs, and originally if I changed the mode to "latex-mode" the appropriate item would show up in the file list (new file using template). That no longer happens. If I open emacs and enter the name of a stub.tex file I created(which is empty), the template message does not appear.
If I open emacs from a terminal with the stub.tex file, the template message does appear in the file menu, but the above Gtk-WARNING message is displayed.
If this is a permission issue, how do I change it?
EDIT: Mysteriously, the error message has disappeared. BUT I still cannot access the menu item: "New File Using Template" from within emacs -- only if I load the empty stub.tex file from the command line or the pcman file manager.
EDIT: Spoke too soon. error message is back.
EDIT: There are two items that have to be added to ~/.emacs to make the template package work: (1) require 'template, and (2) template-initialize. I simply moved both to the bottom of the ~/.emacs file, and the error was corrected. Now the listing in the File menu shows: "New File Using Template" upon opening.

Yeah I figured that out when I got back home. It was my own fault for running emacs from Run Program in xfce instead of from the Terminal.
However, I've installed that package along with the 75dpi one and it still doesn't work. I even ran fc-cache again just to be sure. Weird.
The error is "Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*" to type FontStruct" So perhaps it's a fontconfig problem. Both fontconfig and freetype2 as up-to-date. Hmm.
[EDIT] I restared X and everything worked. Thanks. I've updated the wiki with the information. I'll send a diff to the maintainer at some point; the PKGBUILD should really tell the user that he/she needs to install these fonts if using X windows

[Solved]Dual-Head Setup broken after last Kernelupgrade

Hello,
Yesterday I upgraded my from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3 and was kind of surprised when my second display didn't want to show a picture anymore. When booting everything looks good when sudenly one display gets black. It doesn't matter which Desktop I start, even when switching VT only one display is active, so it's not a Xorg-bug.
Nothing shows up in journalctl oder dmesg and as far as the system is concerned everything works as expected. Everything worked as soon as I downgraded the Kernel to 4.0.2.
Enabling testing and installing 4.0.4 didn't work either.
So my question is, does anyone else experience this behaviour?
thanks in advance
- Radeon HD 77xx with open source drivers
- two displays DVI (primary) and HDMI (secondary)
Edit:
I Just checked the kernel from today in testing (4.0.4-2) and saw something really interesting during boot.

I think I kinda 'solved' the problem by enabling early KMS in mkinitcpio.conf and switched my first Display to the second DVI-Port. It works now, but I don't know if this could be labeled as 'solved' since it's a pretty specific solution and propably doesn't apply to anyone else.
Edit. The most recent Kernel 4.0.5 in Testing solved the problem for me.

554 5.4.6 aliasing/forwarding loop broken

A couple of clients of mine have had their attempts to send email to me bounce back with this error. I have a general idea of what the problem is (a conflict between a user's email address and some alias that I can't find) and I'm pretty sure that I'm not going to solve it through the GUI. I admit that my postfix knowledge is limited but I'm reasonably familiar with the terminal app, UNIX and the vi editor. Any help would be appreciated.

[SOLVED] Emacs dependent on Ubuntu font family

Installed emacs, and when I tried to run it, this what it said:
Font `Ubuntu Mono 13' is not defined
And it wouldn't start. I had to install ttf-ubuntu-font-family to make it run. File ~/.emacs was empty, and nothing resembling ubuntu (except for a few comments) could not be found under /usr/share/emacs.
Did anybody else have this issue? Maybe emacs package should have ubuntu font dependency?
Last edited by kotnik (2011-11-22 10:34:26)

I have the same problem, emacs can't work on X11 but works fine without X, that's not related with these ttf-ubuntu-font-family cause it's installed, i have no .emacs file and .emacs.d/ folder is empty.
The problem is related with my user profile cause it works on an other profile on the same system.
