[solved] KDE 4.4: Wallpapers not working.

I just updated testing and it installed KDE 4.3.98, however now I cannot use wallpapers on my desktop, if I choose wallpaper in the desktop appearance window, there's no options to pick what image to display or anything, just the drop down telling the type of background.
The same is also the case for the slideshow and weather backgrounds. I've got 'kdeplasma-addons-wallpapers-weather' installed, but could not find any package relating to wallpaper or slideshow.
I did update Qt and phonon correctly before the upgrade, but for some reason I had to manually update "kdepim-akonadiconsole" due to dependency-issues, but I doubt it's related.
I tried to look in .xsession-errors when using the desktop activity settings window, but I couldn't see any errors appear and if I click apply in the dialog, the background just goes white, no errors or anything.

Iirc, arch tries to use vanilla (default) settings, and only patches stuff if it would cause major problems not to.
wrc1944 wrote:I knew there was a warning about using the testing repo, but I've experienced no problems. Is that warning no longer in effect?
Ha! I too have experienced no (major) problems, but I still read arch-dev-public and watch out for any messages on updates

[SOLVED]Login manager in KDE 4.3 does not work!

This is a fresh install (just two days old and installed KDEbase just yesterday), and almost everything is working like a charm the only glitch I have experienced till now is that the login manager module in System Settings is not working as it should be. When I click on its button I know that it should normally ask me for my password but it does not do that and therefore when it opens up all the settings are greyed out and thus unchangable . Is this a bug or am I missing something (Anyone else experienced this!)?
Also, although not related to this topic, can somebody tell me where to find the setting for making windows shift to different workspace while dragging them through the edges of the screen. I'm sure I found this setting under Window Behavior>Window Behavior module in Kubuntu but it is nowhere to be found on the Arch KDE.

As nobody answered this question, I guess I'll just mark this thread as solved as even after a lot of search I'm unable to find the preference and so none of the arch users here know about it as well. I think that feature was kubuntu specific and as Arch ships vanilla KDE I think its useless trying to find it here.
Anyways thanks for the help guys

[Solved] KDE Desktop Effects no longer working

Hello,
I just did an update, (I didn't think it was a major one, I don't recall seeing graphics update, though I'm not sure how to confirm - is there a way to see recently updated packages in yaourt?) and after a brief issue with powertop that was solved by a restart (https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=179789 - it may be unrelated though) I found that when I restarted, KWin Crashed, and since then, my desktop effects are not working.
I have gone to the KDE Desktop Effects Settings Menu, and under the advanced menu, set the compositing type back to OpenGL 3.1, clicked apply, and confirmed that I wanted to try it even though it had evidently crashed Kwin. I then received a message stating "21 desktop effects could not be loaded". When I clicked details, a popup window said:
"For technical reasons it is not possible to determine all possible error causes.
Desktop effect system is not running."
For the record, I am on a Thinkpad X201 with intel graphics.
Any ideas?

Some Extra information:
I just tried a restart, that didn't work.
I then went back into effect settings, and saw that "enable effects at startup" was not checked. I also saw that under the advanced settings, Qt Graphics system was set to raster. Since I'm not sure which it was supposed to be on originally, but the current configuration wasn't working, I also set that to Native, and then clicked apply. KWin then crashed, here is the output:
Application: KWin (kwin), signal: Aborted

[SOLVED] MSI GT70 keyboard buttons not working

Hi! I am a normal user of computers that like games, so I bought this awesome notebook MSI GT70 i7 16gb ram GTX 675MX 128ssd+750hdd, with a keyboard by steelseries.
Everything was ok, using the notebook as came when I bought, with OS windows 8, with no format nor modifications by me, using it since January 2013.
The problem is that about 1 or 2 weeks some shortcuts of keyboard arent working anymore:
- Wifi button isn't working and isn't becoming orange when pressed, and Fn+F8 isn't working either;
- Screen shutdown button is becoming orange when pressed but not working;
- Cd-dvd eject button is becoming orange when pressed but not working;
- I tried also Fn+F9 and Fn+F12 shortcuts, and I think they arent working either.
At the same time, the Cooler button and the Backlight's Keyboard button are working correctly. Turbo button maybe is working too but I don't know if something become overclock when I activate it.
I would really appreciate some help, since I love my notebook very much, and I hope it's not a hard problem to solve.
Thanks!

Try resetting EC: >>How to reset the EC (Embedded Controller)<<
If that doesN't help uinstall SCM and after reboot install latest version: http://www.msi.com/service/download/utility-19670.html
Also try updating .Net Framework 4.5: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36377
Hi,
I followed your advice:
1. uninstalled SCM, restarted
2. installed SCM, restarted
3. tried to update .net framework, had it already
4. resat the EC
But unfortunately it did not change my GE60 2OC's behaviour: when i press the back-light button it opens my browser with dragoonarmy/msi.com>/ BUT NO LIGHT.
Do anybody have a suggestion to solve this??
Thanks Kurt

[SOLVED] Suspend to ram / disk not working in newer kernels

Hi all,
this puzzles me for a while:
My desktop system was able to suspend to ram / disk flawlessly in older kernels. It stopped working with 3.3. The suspend seems to work, the machine goes to standby. But when I try to resume, the machines is on but the screen stays black. Neither the console is working nor can I ssh into it. Only hard reset gets me out here
I did investigate and found many tips and hints which all led to nowhere. I even changed my filesystem back from btrfs to ext4 and my VGA module from proprietary nvidia to nouveau.
When this all failed I got to the idea to burn several install disks. One of the official 2011.08.19 (kernel 3.0.3) and one of the snapshots 2012.06.05_04-00-01 (kernel 3.3.7) and 2012.07.17_04-00-01 (kernel 3.4.4). I guess these can not be compromised by some hosed installation. I started one by one and issued the follwing command:
echo mem > /sys/power/state
which suspends the machine successfully in all three cases. With 2011.08.19 the resume is working but the other two fail. Some more info about the hardware:

Another life-sign. The issue is still unsolved but I've come a little further. It seems to be a combination of more failures. The first one is USB hardware. I have a usb keyboard-mouse combo from Logitech (comfort cordless desktop). The USB bus does not wake up correctly when resuming from suspend. So my keyboard is unsuable. I put in a file /etc/pm/sleep.d/20_custom-ehci_hcd with the following content:
BUSES="0000:00:1a.7 0000:00:1d.7"
case "${1}" in
hibernate|suspend)
# Switch USB buses off
for bus in $BUSES; do
echo -n $bus | tee /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd/unbind
done
resume|thaw)
# Switch USB buses back on
for bus in $BUSES; do
echo -n $bus | tee /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd/bind
done
esac
The bus IDs were taken from /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci_hcd
When I start pm-suspend from a console (no X started) this seems to reanimate my keyboard while the screen stays black (with backlight on). I can type and reboot. Also I can ssh into the machine from my laptop.
Concerning the blank screen there seems to be a bug in both the proprietary nvidia modules as well as the nouveau driver. The nvidia folks have issued a new beta driver which seems to at least minimize the failures. This all concerns the nv50-family of nvidias cards. I have a GF8600GT which is one of these
I'll wait for this driver and then restart my testing. Until then - no suspend/hibernate
EDIT: Today's nvidia 304.32 is solving my issues - I can sleep again

[SOLVED} Suspend to ram does not work (with sleep, s2ram, pm-utils)

Hi.
I would like to ask for one thing: i can't suspend to ram or resume from suspend to ram.
I treid to check over www in order to find some help, some solutions, and how to fix that. Unfortunately, i found these:
https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread. … 13-2/page2
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=913105
https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread. … S-13-1-x64
Bug 91921 - WD 2TB Caviar black causes hard lock on resume S2RAM
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91921
In fact, when i was researching of this problem i wanted to check if my graphic card and memory are failing so a did few changes (removed memory stick and so one) but in doing this i removed almost all of my hard disk drives because i didn't want to hurt them with many reboots or resets.
What did i find? It is strange, kernel version is not important because i checked most of them.
I removed 2x2TB Seagate F14 series along with 4x3TB WD Green. Then i checked s2ram, it went to suspend, and resumes correctly. Everything works. I put it to sleep with s2ram -f -a 1. Works
I attached my 4x3TB WD Green drives. I put computer to sleep with s2ram...it causes hard lock, black screen, i could do only poweroff by powerbutton. s2ram -f -a 1 causes freez. Sometimes, but not constantly, s2ram -f -a 3 -p is being able to suspend...(mostly it does a freez, hard lock computer) but sometimes it is able to put it to a sleep, but resume just freezes everyting - no blinking cursor, no blinking num lock led and so on.
I know that you would suggest me to check logs - this is the main problem. Logs for pm-suspend works when i suspend or resume without WD drives attached. When i have them connected, i'm not able to check pm-logs because computer hangs, freezes and logs are not being stored/writed to pm-suspend.log and pm-powersave.log.
Could somebody help? Point me to a solution? I can't check logs because there are not any when freezing occurs. I checked openSuse thread and many others and for other systems there were some kernel fixex, patches.
They wrote that WD blacks are at fault because they don't have APM. Well, in fact my WD Green have APM with very aggresive factory settings: they park heads over 8 seconds not being used. I disabled it in firmware but disabling it is not the point and not the problem. People have the same problem even with APM and parking heads on other WD drives, i found it that some have it with WD Red's drives and even with very old 320GB WD Blue series - what is more funny, i have 640GB AAKS blue from WD and with this drive i can suspend or resume - APM on this drive is also unavilable, like in Green series because i changed it with wdidle with prebootable cd. I can't supend or resume with 3TB WD Greens.
BTW - suspend to disk, with pm-utils and uswsusp works ok, in 100% every time. (i had to add "shutdown method = shutdown" to /etc/suspend.conf from uswsusp package).
On Windows machine it works. Can suspend, can resume, can hibernate.

Hm, sometimes i found myself astonished because some things just does not work at all on one machine, while the other one has no problem at all. I was trying to find why suspend to ram won't work at all...and while i was searching i found one topic that was leading to upower dbus. Similar problem with upower i found, by coincidence, on Manjaro forum.
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.UPower" /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.Suspend
this command above returns all the time:
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "Suspend" with signature "" on interface "org.freedesktop.UPower" doesn't exist
I tried this:
sudo systemctl enable acpid.service
sudo systemctl --system daemon-reload
sudo systemctl restart systemd-logind
As soon as i enabled and started acpid.service...my supend to ram, from kde, works like a charm, without graphic problem, or freezing.
There is few question: why on my desktop suspend doesen't work out of the box, when even archwiki says it should? Why on my netbook machine (Acer AOD270) that has the same package installed it works out of the box? Why on my desktop machine acpid.service was not enabled, was not started and was not running while on the notebook it does?
Anyway...i fixed it by a big coincidence because on Fedora forum somebody has problem with suspend to ram with nvidia GTX750 and this card was new like my card (GTX660). He posted the same problem with upower that i posted in quotes and because of this i found another thing on Manjaro forum and that was it!
BTW - this problem, i now think, is not related to my WD drives because it works with them. I think that there was another one ugly thing that broke my suspend to ram ability - bios of my motherboard (so called uefi bios with support for old one) has no option for S1-S5 stated (like the previous motherboards had) and only have ASPM...and ASPM is in my opinion broken but i will try to veryfi it one again later.

Solved my problem by blacklisting "carl9170", so only "ar9170usb" module is loaded.
Blacklisting "ar9170usb" did not work here!
Thanks
EDIT:
After update to Kernel 3.0 the ar9170usb module was removed. Now its not working anymore.
When i load the carl9170 module, it says
[ 2.979833] usb 3-1: firmware not found.
Do I need any additional firmware?

[Solved] Remote X over ssh not working

Hello, I'm trying to forward X11 over ssh but it's not working.
I type
ssh -X 192.168.1.101
followed by my password, and I log in just fine.
I try to launch an X11 application and I get
$kate
kate: cannot connect to X server
SSH is supposed to be forwarding a dummy $DISPLAY to allow remote X. So I type
$echo $DISPLAY
and and get back a empty newline.
Well how about
$xinit
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again.
Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support
at http://wiki.x.org
for help.
Okay, I'll shut down xserver.
I do it, and type
$xinit
again. KDE launches on my remote box. It makes sense, but contradicts many guides I have read which say it should launch on my local machine.
What am I doing wrong here? This should be ridiculously simple.
Last edited by xenobrain (2010-07-06 20:45:16)

Did you enable X forwarding in your sshd config?
Did you xhost + (or ssh -Y)?
Did you crop your DISPLAY variable in a bashrc or similar script run at login?

[SOLVED] Lightdm theming (GTK) does not work?

Hi,
Silly maybe, but in trying out lightdm(-GTK) to replace gdm, I am unable to change the GTK-theme in /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf.
I was able to change the background and the font, but the theme, the icon (and maybe cursor) remain the default grey. I have tried using Adwaita, which should be installed together with gnome 3 and I have installed gnome-shell-theme-faience from AUR to try it out. None of them are working.
Maybe this is related:
I do seem to have another problem with the user-theme-extension: it was outdated according to extensions.gnome.org, so I removed it with pacman and I installed it via the gnome website. But gnome-tweak-tool keeps telling me there is an error with the extension and I'm not able to set a user theme with that tool...
Anybody have a clue? The wiki nor the AUR hold much info on this and the web is talking about the unity-greeter mostly...
Last edited by zenlord (2012-06-18 17:18:07)

The lack of responses seem to indicate two possibilities:
1. I'm the only one having a problem, or
2. This is not a bug - I should theme lightdm-gtk manually.
In either case: the extension-problem is solved now, so that should not interfere (anymore), and upgrading to the latest lightdm(-gtk-greeter) has not solved the problem...

[SOLVED] Spell Check on KDE4 not working.

So, I have Spell check enabled in systemsettings->locale. Further, I have enchant installed as well. However, spell check does not work on any application inside KDE (blogila, kword, kate etc). Am I missing any package?

tohben wrote:is /Volumes/efi on OS X the same as /mnt/efi on linux?
In some sense, mount points are arbitrary -- you can mount a partition at /mnt/efi, at /boot/efi, at /Volumes/fred, at /some/weird/place, or whatever. There are a few limits on this based on certain critical directories -- for instance, attempting to mount anything at /etc is likely to lead to pain. Likewise, if a partition holds critical system files, it may need to be mounted at a particular location to do any good. For instance, if you split /var off onto its own partition, you'd want to mount that partition at /var (except perhaps for some very rare maintenance tasks). For the ESP, though, you can mount it just about anywhere -- under either Linux or OS X. The most common mount point in Linux is /boot/efi, followed in popularity by /boot. AFAIK, there's nothing remotely resembling a "standard" mount point for the ESP in OS X.
Speaking to your broader issue, tohben, I think you'll find this much easier if you download the official rEFInd binary .zip file from the rEFInd download page and run the install.sh script from OS X. That will do the installation for you. It's probably best to install it to the OS X root partition rather than to the ESP, because some users have problems with ~30-second delays when starting rEFInd from the ESP, but normally not when started from an HFS+ volume. (The default behavior of install.sh under OS X is to install to the OS X root partition; to install to the ESP, you must add the --esp option.) If you want rEFInd to read your Linux filesystems, you can add the --alldrivers option to install.sh to install drivers; or you can manually install only the driver(s) you need.

[SOLVED] Front audio panel still not working on K9N Neo V3

I already posted on this here: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=113813.0.
I still didn't get front audio panel to work on MSI K9N Neo V3.
Even with my new case; Sharkoon Revenge, it is not working. It wasn't working on my previous noname case too. However, front audio panel on my previous case was working on several other MBs except on this MSI K9N.
Now, I'm using the latest Realtek HD audio driver. I think it's from February '08. Just as with the driver dowloaded by Vista via Windows Update, anything plugged in front audio panel isn't recognized. In this new version of Realtek driver I can't find this Disable front audio panel option so I can't tell if it is checked or not.
Once more, there is not much to do wrong while connecting. Case front audio panel cabel is the same as on all other cases I've ever seen/had. It's a cable with the same number and position of pins as in all other cases. It fits fine on MSI K9N Neo V3. Rear audio panel is working fine.
Any solution to this!?

Quote from: Jack the Newbie on 07-April-08, 03:25:15
From what I can see from the Sharkoon product page, the front panel connectors of your case are not compliant with the Intel HD Audio Pin Standard.
Do you have a manual for your case that includes Pin/wire definitions for the front audio connectors?
No. There was no manual in package. I never thought I will need one either.
Here is Sharkoon Rebel Pin Assigment; http://img176.imageshack.us/img176/9729/pinslk2.jpg
Quote from: Jack the Newbie on 07-April-08, 03:25:15
Have you tried disabling automatic front panel jack detection in the Realtek HD Audio configuration utility? If you don't know were to find that option, access the tab labeled "Audio I/O" and click on the tool icon.
Yes, I tried disabling it. Two tabs (front audio out and front mic) appeared but none of it works.
Quote from: HenryW on 07-April-08, 03:35:46
From something I read: You can also physically check the audio cable of the front panel audio solution. If there is a cable connected to Pin 4, you have an HD Audio module; if there is no cable to Pin 4, you have an AC97 module.
I don't really understand this. Could you please check this on Pin Assignment scan I uploaded above!?

[SOLVED] Hybridgraphics: acpi_call after Kernelupgrade not working

Hi,
after upgrading from Kernel 3.14.6 to 3.15.1, deactivating the my Nvidia Optimus GT730M by using acpi_call seems not to work anymore. Calling the parameters which worked until now seems to succeed:
bla$ sudo sh -c './gpuOff.sh && cat /proc/acpi/call'
0x0called
But neither I was able to observe any changes of the battery state nor the output of lspci has changed. As far as I can gather, there should be something like "rev ff" indicating a deactivated card?!
bla$ lspci | grep VGA
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06)
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK208M [GeForce GT 730M] (rev a1)
Acpi_call is up2date and compiled with current Headers.
Maybe I'm missing something?

Sorry ^^
The script simply contains the parameters for deactivating the NVIDIA card of my t440p.
#!/bin/bash
echo "\_SB.PCI0.PEG.VID._DSM {0xF8,0xD8,0x86,0xA4,0xDA,0x0B,0x1B,0x47,0xA7,0x2B,0x60,0x42,0xA6,0xB5,0xBE,0xE0} 0x100 0x1A {0x1,0x0,0x0,0x3}" >/proc/acpi/call
echo "\_SB.PCI0.PEG.VID._PS3" >/proc/acpi/call
exit 0
I have checked both lines and both commands succeed, at least according to /proc/acpi/call.
PS:
Using bumblebee/bbswitch is not working for me since it causes data corruption

[SOLVED] Brightness control over keyboard not working, but it works...

Hello,
I recently got a new laptop at work and I put a fresh Arch on it.
Almost everything works perfectly, but I have one weird issue.
I can control backlight of my display via ACPI; I wrote a simple script for it:
pabre@pbr-laptok:~$ cat /usr/local/sbin/brightness.sh
#!/bin/bash
DEV=/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
MAX=`cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/max_brightness`
ACT=`cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/actual_brightness`
MIN=0
STEPS=10
STEP=$((MAX/STEPS))
if [ $1 == "+" ]; then
if [ $((ACT+STEP)) -le $MAX ]; then
echo $((ACT+STEP)) > $DEV
fi
elif [ $1 == "-" ]; then
if [ $((ACT-STEP)) -ge $MIN ]; then
echo $((ACT-STEP)) > $DEV
fi
fi
exit 0
I put myself a sudoers entry for it:
root@pbr-laptok:~# cat /etc/sudoers | grep pabre
pabre ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/sbin/brightness.sh,/usr/bin/pacman -Sy
And it works like a charm, when run from a terminal:
pabre@pbr-laptok:~$ sudo /usr/local/sbin/brightness.sh -
So, my next step was to bind that script to appropriate keys on my keyboard (Fn + UP/DOWN - which are XF86MonBrightnessUp and XF86MonBrightnessDown)
My window manager is Awesome, so I put to the config:
awful.key({ }, "XF86MonBrightnessUp", function () awful.util.spawn("sudo /usr/local/sbin/brightness.sh +") end),
awful.key({ }, "XF86MonBrightnessDown", function () awful.util.spawn("sudo /usr/local/sbin/brightness.sh -") end),
among others like touchpad toggling, volume control, etc (which are working without issues)
And now, guess what... Those keys fire that script, change the brightness and after second or less - it comes back to old value! You can see that display blinks (for example gets brighter and moment after - it goes back to previous state).
I tried to debug it, putting to the script something like:
if [ $1 == "+" ]; then
if [ $((ACT+STEP)) -le $MAX ]; then
echo $((ACT+STEP)) > $DEV
cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/actual_brightness >> /tmp/br.log
sleep 1
cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/actual_brightness >> /tmp/br.log
fi
And the first entry was that what it was supposed to be, while te other (second after) Was again the old value.
Does anybody have any idea what "reverts" my changes to the /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness and why it works without issues when simply run from a terminal?
Last edited by PaBre (2014-03-16 17:10:54)

I think that I've found partial answer.
When I changed key binds to another keys - it works!
But even then, when I press XF86MonBrightnessUp or XF86MonBrightnessDown, the brightness level gets reset. And now they are not bind to anything (at last not explicit).
So it looks that I have to found how to decouple the internal, not working as expected, bind to these keys.

What I've read, there should be /usr/share/fonts/local/* too in that list.
I run my window manager, dwm with startx and ~/.xinitrc has these lines before dwm:
xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/local
xset fp rehash
I have also tried to include those with xorg.conf:
$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Files"
FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/local/"
EndSection
I'm using Ubuntu's patched versions of freetype, fontconfig and cairo if that has anything to do with my problem:
freetype2-ubuntu fontconfig-ubuntu cairo-ubuntu
Xft fonts work fine with urxvt, but bitmaps don't. What am I missing?

There isn't a "tamsynu" family in the tamsyn-font package. You're trying to use a font that doesn't exist on your machine.
$ xlsfonts -fn "-*-tamsynu-*"
xlsfonts: pattern "-*-tamsynu-*" unmatched
$ xlsfonts -fn "-*-tamsyn-*"
-misc-tamsyn-bold-r-normal--0-0-100-100-c-0-iso8859-1
-misc-tamsyn-bold-r-normal--12-87-100-100-c-60-iso8859-1
<< And more >>
The syntax for the resource is fine, but it is case-sensitive. The class is 'URxvt', an instance would be 'urxvt'.
This should be good for a first attempt at the proper size:
urxvt.font: -misc-tamsyn-medium-r-normal--14-101-100-100-c-70-iso8859-1
urxvt.boldFont: -misc-tamsyn-bold-r-normal--14-101-100-100-c-70-iso8859-1
That's about equal to DejaVu Sans Mono at 8 points.
If you have rebuilt your font cache, either by restarting X or running 'fc-cache -f', and you want to use Xft, then this is equivalent (Tamsyn does not use anti-aliasing):
urxvt.font: xft:Tamsyn:style=Regular:size=10.1
urxvt.boldFont: xft:Tamsyn:style=Bold:size=10.1
