[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.

Keyboard not working correctly after updating to 8.1 64bit pro.

Keyboard not working correctly after updating to 8.1 64bit pro.
After I updated, everything seemed ok and then all of the sudden I rebooted and only the f1 – f12 row would work. I resorted to resorted to unplugging and removing the battery and it would work for a short amount of time. This has been reported on other laptops as well, see here.

I think it can be solved with a driver update from hp or the keyboard builder but none is online.

Hi,
Please put the units product no. in the link and check if your PC is tested by HP with Windows 8.1

[Solved] gdm-x-session segfault after update to gdm-3.16.0.1-1

After
updating to gdm-3.16.0.1-1, when starting a GNOME session with i3 as
window manager (using i3-gnome from the AUR) gdm-x-session crashes with
error:
$ dmesg
[ 75.134600] gdm-x-session[642]: segfault at 38 ip 0000000000405ae9 sp
00007ffc1aff1430 error 4 in gdm-x-session[400000+11000]
I am able to start all other sessions: GNOME shell, GNOME on Wayland,
only i3.
My system is up-to-date.
Could some one instruct me on how to further debug this error?
EDIT: It was easier to avoid i3-gnome completely and start gnome-setting-daemon from ~.i3/conf. I am still struggling with the keyring, but other than that everything else is working as intended.

Thanks for the hint, inxsible, downgrading to JRE 1.6 solved it.
For the sake of others who might run into the same problem: I downloaded jre-6u26-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz from the Arch Rollback Machine, installed it (
pacman -U jre-6u26-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz
) and added
jre
to the
IgnorePkg
line in
/etc/pacman.conf
so it won't get replaced in the next update.
After doing that, Eclipse suffered PermGen Out-of-memory-errors. Adding
-XX:MaxPermSize=128M
to
/usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini
fixed that and now m2e installs fine.

[SOLVED]Keyboard repeat rate

When I startx the keyboard repeat delay increases which is very annoying. How do I change the keyboard repeat delay to be just as fast as the tty in xorg?

This works! Thank you very much. I'm a repeat delay junkie so I set it to 150ms.

[solved] gnome-shell bad looking after update

Hi,
After update (about two weeks ago) my gnome looks bad. You can see this in screenshots. Very large icons and strange rectangles in gnome shell menu on started applications.
Can you help?

Hi
Desktop icons: open Files (nautilus) and change default zoom level for icons from standard to small (preferences - views).
Rectangles: this is how running applications are displayed in the default theme. If those rectangles bother you too much, the easiest way is to change theme. For example, ceti-2 and vertex are already ported to 3.16.
It works. Thanks for help.

[SOLVED] Headphone keep producing noises after update

I executed "pacman -Syu" yesterday. And after update my headphone isn't turned on automatically. I had install alsamixer and unmute it manually, but the problem is the headphone keeps producing annoying noises. It never happened before the update. I have win***s installed and got no problem with it.
Don't know what to do here. I've been using linux (mandriva, opensuse, fedora, slackware, and mostly ubuntu) for 5 years, but haven't been working with arch until a month ago, so you probably underestand my situation.
Thank for the cooperation..

Keyboard and mouse trouble after update to 10.8.4

After I updated my Imac to 10.8.4 my mouse and keyboard would freeze for about three minutes unless I used the power button to put the computer to sleep and then wake it up. When I reinstall 10.8.3 everything is fine again. I have used the combo updater, combo updater in safe mod. I have repaired permissions, verifyed the disk, cleaned caches, ran apple and third party hardware tests, and rebuild the directory. I know it is a software problem, but what is it ?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -f -a TextEdit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
{ sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; } | open -f -a TextEdit
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' | open -f -a TextEdit
Step 4
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' | open -f -a TextEdit
Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.

[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

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.

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.

@antoyo: The old one is compiled using gnu-efi-libs, the new one is compiled using Tianocore UDK2010.

My search bar is messed up after update. I want the old drop down menu back. I can't search for anything now. Firefox is absolutely useless to me now.

Firefox software update appeared. I allowed it to be installed. It screwed up the search bar/box. I use to be able to click on the magnifying glass icon and ALL the search engine options would appear and I could easily chose one. It was easy. Now nothing. I cannot search anything through Firefox. Firefox is useless to me now, which means I have no computer. Do I have to go out and spend another $1000 to get a new computer? This is not right. You should not do this to a person. Not everybody is technically advanced as some of you are. Now I have no means of searching for anything using Firefox. I really liked Firefox. Now your software update messed me all up. So what am I supposed to do???????????????? IE is worthless. Not safe, not secure, can't trust it. Never works right. Can't even print out correctly. Firefox update should not have messed up my computer. I need to make searches and now I can't. I mean it, it really is not right. So, just for you so called brilliant Stanford types, when I click on the magnifying glass icon or the little, inverted triangle, there is nothing. The search bar is blank. Blank, blank, blank. No longer the quick drop down window with all the available search engine selections. Got it? That's why I've repeated myself. Have a real nice day!

See this KB article to learn how the new Search Bar works - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/search-bar-add-change-manage-search-engines-firefox
If you want the old Search Bar scheme back do this.
Open up '''about:config''' ''(typed in the Location Bar)'' and toggle this preference to '''''false'''''
'''browser.search.showOneOffButtons'''
Then restart Firefox.

What should I do if my keyboard is not working after updating to new OS Mavericks update?

I have a 13" MacBook Pro that was purchased in January 2014. Recently I installed the recommended updates for OS Mavericks on my computer. I rebooted the computer as recommended and when I went to login lo and behold my keyboard will not function. None of the keys will work so I couldn't even put in my login password to even see what the problem was. Naturally I went to all the apple forums I could, to find a solution and none of them seem to work. I reset the PRAM and SMC and still cannot get the keyboard to function. While under disk utility the keyboard functions just fine. But It will not function in a regular setting. I am very upset and frustrated with Apple as the issue is a software issue with OS Mavericks and Apple has yet to acknowledge a problem, meanwhile this is the second time in less than a month that I've had major issues after downloading Mavericks updates. I hope apple can resolve this issue.

Keep it connected to the Power for a while.
Start up in Safe Mode.

Mac Mini rez is messed up after update....

I have last gen C2D Mac Mini hooked to my 37" 720 LG TV through the DVI > HDMI. I only use the Mini for music and movies though NetFlix etc. Last night I did updates to OSX etc and after reboot my rez is all messed up. Apple toolbar just slightly off screen and I can't seem to find the proper rez. Before the Mini set itself automatically to the LG's rez, but not no more....but it does see it is connected to a LG TV.
Any ideas?

I'm going to suggest the obvious...
It looks like overscan what you are experiencing and it happens to be a new option under System Preferences>>Displays>>Options>>Overscan. Set it to on for DVD's, off for everything else.

Keyboard shortcuts problem issue after updating to 6.0.5

Directly after installing this update, Command+SpaceBar on the Mac no longer temporarily selects the zoom tool? Not sure what others keyboard shortcuts might be broken, but this is a very standard one. I have a book due on Monday!!! Any help would be appreciated? Thanks!
Not sure if related, but my computer started lagging and freezing directly after installing this update, and continues to the next day, even after repairing permissions, trashing prefernces, trashing SavedData cache, etc.

That totally fixed the shortcut issue!! Fixed in InDesign and Illustrator. Will keep you posted on the computer lagging and freezing issue. Our IT guy thinks it may have something to do the Adobe Updater itself. But we'll see.... thanks so much!

[SOLVED] xmodmap hangs and crashes after update

UPDATE: See pabloc's post for a solution. keyboard plugin of gnome-settings-daemon was overriding Xmodmap bindings.
After a pacman -Syu today, ~/.Xmodmap is no longer being loaded on login. Running `xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap` in a terminal window causes the entire DE (Cinnamon) to freeze, and it fixes itself after a minute or so (terminal window closes).
Here is my ~/.xinitrc
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f $HOME/.Xmodmap ]; then
/usr/bin/xmodmap $HOME/.Xmodmap
fi
exec gnome-session-cinnamon
I haven't modified ~/.Xmodmap recently, and it was working fine prior to the update. The only modifications are swapping of the PgUp/PgDn keys with Home/End because ThinkPads have them in a weird spot.
Here are my pacman.log entries from today:

I've done a bit more playing around with this. It seems running xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap does work, it's just very slow and CPU-hungry. Reducing my .Xmodmap file to include only the overrides (4 of them) allows it to complete in about a second.
However, it's still not being loaded on login, despite being in .xinitrc. In order to get my keybinds to work in a program, I need to open a terminal, run xmodmap manually, then execute whatever program I want them to work in.
I tried downgrading xf86-input-evdev but my keyboard no longer worked on boot, once the display manager appeared (and I couldn't switch TTYs with Ctrl+Shift+F*).
