[SOLVED] KEYMAP - umlauts issue

Hi there!
I've just reinstalled Archlinux and the keyboard layout is giving me some troubles. I'd like to use the Swiss-German layout.
My vconsole.conf
KEYMAP=de_CH-latin1
FONT=Lat2-Terminus16
The main problem are the umlauts / special characters. They're not displayed correctly:
- 'ç' displayed as 'Ä'
- 'ü' displayed as '¶'
- 'ö' displayed as 'ß'
- 'ä' displayed as '»'
By using localectl I am able to set the layout correctly until reboot:
localectl set-keymap ch # actually worked...
localectl set-keymap de_CH-latin1
localectl set-keymap sg-latin1
Thanks in advance!

What's the perfect CHINESE FONT for iWeb to solved the Justified issue?

Hi,
Terible here, i'm using Chinese Font for my website...most of the Text Box were out of Justified unlike the perfect justified on English Font.
Sorry i hope you understand what i'm trying to descript above.
I'm wondering now, Is there any specific Chinese Font to solved the Justified issue?
Now, everything looks fine in iWeb but when view it in Safari or any browser, there'll be out of Justified.
Need helps and thanks!!!

Could you provide your url so people can see what you are referring to?
Have you tried the various Chinese fonts provided with OS X already?

I guess your definition of "solved" is different from most...
Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and get an out of warranty replacement.

Solving Centro hotsync issues without a hard reset

I have a Centro (sprint). I am running Windows Vista. I cannot connect with hotsync. Whenever I try, I get the following message -- "The connection between your handheld computer and the desktop could not be established. Please check your setup and try again." I went through the article referenced at the beginning of this forum and performed all the suggestions (reloaded Palm desktop 6.2, the outlook 2007 update, soft restart, etc.). I took it to a repair center and they stated the ONLY way to fix it was to do a hard reset which would lose all info. Since I can't hotsync, I haven't been able to backup the phone which means I'll lose everything. I'm hoping there are some other suggestions I could try. It seems contrary that the only way to solve a hotsync issue and save your data is to do a hard reset and lose all your data. Thanks.
Post relates to: Centro (Sprint)

Is your Vista 64 bit or 32 bit?
Try performing a warm reset of your device... Take out the battery press and hold the UP button insert the battery while holding the UP navigator button wait until you see set date and time then release the button. Connect the phone back to the PC and try perform a hotsync.

Facetime is not in the App store. It is part of the iOS. You access Facetime on the phone via the contact section. Facetime needs to be activated in Settings. The only reason you may not have it is if you purchased the device in an area where Facetime is prohibited by law.

Did you have an Adobe trial running on this same computer before? Maybe your previous trial was used for 3 weeks and then you uninstalled it? If so, you're only eligible for a 1 week trial on this computer.

[SOLVED] Strange character issue...

I'm using Openbox, and sometimes (often) the text will mess up and start showing random characters in place of the characters that's supposed to be there. I kill X and start it up again, and it's fixed until it happens again. It usually happens after doing some package management and other system-related things, but a couple of times it's done it during a session where I didn't do any of those things. This only happens in X/Openbox.
I figured it was a locale problem, so I checked all of my locale settings multiple times and everything appears correct. Then I figured it was maybe a key mapping problem, so I checked that KEYMAP was set to us, and it is.
I have en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 and ja_JP.UTF-8 UTF-8 enabled, and en_US.UTF-8 is my default...I use Terminus as my font for everything. Any help with this is appreciated since I've spent two days trying to figure it out already and I just want to move on.
Here's an example...Sometimes there'll be huge characters and Japanese kanji thrown in there.

No. Xorg 1.13.04 does not work well with nvidia drivers.
This problem is dealt with in several topics:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=152899
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=152837
Only "solution" so far: Downgrading xorg.
1.13.03 might be enough according to user corion's post).
Alright...Thanks for the info. I guess I was completely wrong in how I was thinking of the problem. So, am I able to just downgrade the xorg-server package to solve the issue, or am I going to have to downgrade other related packages such as xorg-server-common?

Is there any way to solve this tooltip issue besides addFocusListener?

Following up with my last posted thread that now has the record of 23 responds and none relevant to my question, I'm posting another one right now.
I've managed to reproduce the issue I was talking about and have the code. Basically, my problem was that tooltip was causing popups to go behind the main frame. You can reproduce this by moving your mouse on the table and generate tooltips, after you comment out the focus listener, which is the solution. If table is in focus, tooltips are generated, otherwise, no tooltips.
What I'm wondering about if anyone knows any other way besides the focus listener to implement this fix and check to see if the table has focus? The reason I'm asking this, although it seems to work fine on this code, is because in my application at work, which has more than 10 panels in it, this table's tooltip problem affects all those other panels as well, not just this story popup on the table. When I open any of the other panels, the table doesn't necessarily lose focus, and when I close them, the table won't necessarily gain back focus, which is what I want to see happen.
I'd appreciate your relevant suggestions and ideas to my problem. Thanks!

Following up with my last posted thread that now has the record of 23 responds and none relevant to my questionAs we told you in your last posting, your question didn't have enough relevant information for us to help solve the problem which is why we asked for a SSCCE.
I've managed to reproduce the issueSee what happens when you put your mind to creating a SSCCE, instead of wasting time with unnecessary comments complaining about the lack of help?
Basically, my problem was that tooltip was causing popups to go behind the main frameSorry I still don't see a problem or understand your problem. I've tried the code with and without the FocusListener. In both cases the "popup frame" is always displayed on top of the main frame. This is what I did:
a) place mouse on the table
b) wait for popup to display
c) click on table to show popup
In both cases the popup was displayed on top of the main frame.
When the FocusListener code was commented out, I could still get the tooltip. However, when the FocusListener was active, I could not get the tootip to redisplay after the popup was made the active window.
I'm using JDK6 on XP.
By the way, normally applications are written with a single JFrame. Additional "popups" would be created by using a JDialog and you would specify the frame as the owner of the dialog. Note this should prevent the dialog from displaying behind the frame.

[SOLVED] ACPI power issues with Sony Vaio Pro 13

tl;dr backstory:
Sony VAIO Pro 13 (SVP13215CDB) laptop was working great (Win 8.1).
Installed Win10 Tech Preview. A week later, it started going to sleep randomly and on certain key-presses (perhaps after performing Sony Vaio Software updates. I'm not 100% sure). I wiped all partitions installing Win7 in legacy mode. It still went to sleep randomly.
I restored to factory default Win8.1 with Sony Vaio software up-to-date. It still went to sleep randomly.
Took it to an electronics repair shop, to see if they could fix it, and they said it can't be fixed in any way without replacing motherboard, but that's basically a new laptop.
So I turned to Arch Linux.
I have completed the basic install from the Wiki, and it no longer sleeps/shuts down randomly, but it will gracefully shutdown when certain events/keypresses occur.
I installed acpid and used "acpi_listen >> acpi.log" to determine what causes the system to perform a graceful shutdown. Here is the result of acpi.log (each line was a shutdown event):
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000 # Unplugged power adapter.
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000 # Running on battery and idle. Perhaps battery percent update caused this?
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000 # Plugged in power adapter.
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000 # Fn-F1 Touchpad Disable
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000 # Fn-F5 Brightness Down
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000 # Fn-F6 Brightness Up
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000 # Fn-F7 LCD/External Display
button/power PBTN 00000080 00000000 # Fn-1 (Weird. It has no extra function).
As you can see, they all seem to trigger the same shutdown event.
I have seen on other posts that these ACPI signals can be disabled or assigned to other commands, which would be an acceptable workaround if it stops my laptop from erroneously shutting down. Is this doable?
Also, I was not able to reflash the Sony VAIO firmware when using Windows, as Sony's package software is amazing wouldn't allow flashing an equal or lesser firmware version. Perhaps there is a way in Arch to force a reflash if I can get my hands on the firmware blob?
Thanks .

linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=<UUID here> rw quiet acpi=off
Like this?
I did that, and it disabled my laptop keyboard entirely. In doing so, it disables the key-presses that would normally shutdown the laptop, including the power button. So the only way to shut it down is a hard shutdown via long-press of the power button. Thanks, though.
Update: Issue Solved. I will update post tonight. Flashing the BIOS again resolved the ACPI issues.

How do I solve this error issue i get every time I open the program?

This happens every time I open muse. It just happens in muse and nothing else. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and i have wiped all of my adobe files off my computer and then re installed them and it still didnt solve the issue.
Adobe Muse CC has encountered an error and will now exit. Please report the last few actions you took leading up to this error to the Adobe Muse CC team. Assertion failed in file "/Users/erato/Desktop/workspace/Build_Blob_Mac/dvaapp/Muse/project/mac/../../src/MuseIMSC onnector.cpp" at line 856: fUserEmailId==dvacore::utility::UTF8to16(emailID) user id mismatch

Hello,
please do the following steps and you will be all set.
1. Sign out from Muse By going to Help > Sign out. (if you see the option to do that)
2. Sign out from Creative Cloud Application. (Steps are mentioned in the link Sign out, Sign in | Creative Cloud Desktop app), then Quit Creative Cloud Application.
3. Rename the "OOBE" folder to "OOBEold"
MAC : (This folder can be found at Finder > Go > Go to Folder> Type ~/library/application support/Adobe > Hit return)
Widows : ( This folder can be found at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe )
4. Relaunch Muse, Sign in with your Adobe ID.
Please let me know if the steps above do not work or if you have any confusion.
Regards
Vivek

IPhoto 9.4.1 does not solve all sync issues

The 9.4.1 update does not solve all the sync issues.
It may have fixed the duplicate Events that you can see in iTunes when syncing to an iDevice, but it has not resolved the duplicate Faces.
I still have many duplicate Faces showing, even though in iPhoto the Faces are only there once.......

Try the following:
1 - open the library package with the Finder as follows:
2 - Find the AlbumData.xml file and move it to the Desktop.
3 - close the package and launch iPhoto.
See if the above will get rid of the bogus events.

Solved IOS 6 issue with headphone remote

Upgraded my Iphone 4S to IOS 6 and my Klipsch headphone remot would not work. Volume buttons worked, and the center button would start playing music, but it would not stop or pause the songs. I tried my original Apple earbugs with the remote and did not have any problems. The I used the Klipsch again, and now they work great.
Sounds strange, but that is what happened.

Hi All,
I was facing all sorts of issues with my earphone controls.
This solved my problem.
Double click home button. (press twice).This will show you all the apps that you have currently open.
Long click on the 1st app in the list [about 3 seconds]. This will make the icons wiggle and show a red minus sign on the left hand top corner.
Scroll [right] to see your music app (if you can't see it already).
Press the red minus sign. This will completely close the music app.
Restart your music app and things should be back to normal. [I also would close all other app in the same fashion, just in case, cause things like youtube apps use the controls on your earphones as well. ]
In short: - kill, kill-em-all and restart your music app.

[Solved] Site display issues in Firefox 11.0-2/KDE 4.8.1

I have been having issues with the form fields of the AUR page. Specifically, with any version of Firefox after v9; the fields are incredibly small. (See http://imgur.com/KEdYk for what it looks like). I have removed gtk-kde4, and even created a vanilla user with a brand-new home directory, and this other user profile experiences the same problem. edit: In a fresh install of GNOME 3, the AUR page displays correctly. Also displays correctly if I revert to FF v9
This problem doesn't occur in Chromium, so I thought it was a FF issue, however, I've not heard of anybody else with this same problem... So I'm a little stumped. I filed a bug report a while back, (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/28613 ), but it has been closed. Any help in diagnosing and/or fixing this issue would be helpful and appreciated. Thanks!

That is sounding quite strange. I've had display issues similar to yours with login fields and search fields that are usually at the top of a we page appearing distorted and on top of each other. Another prevalent problem that I noticed on YouTube was that text I enter into any field doesn't show up, but it is entered and I can search. I'm running xfce so I don't know what to say. Haven't had the problem in gnome, though I really don't like gnome 3 for its lack of what of what I considered organizational hierarchy. (though I am against hierarchies of other sorts), Ive also found that clearing the Firefox cache can solve some of these problems.

I believe I found the fix solving home sharing issues with Windows 7

I was having a problem with my Windows 7 PC while trying to connect iTunes home sharing and my Apple TV. While speaking to Apple support, the tech told me that home sharing uses port 3689. I searched the web and found this link explaining how to open a port on your PC. The issue seems to be with Windows firewall, or the anti virus software controlling the Windows firewall. I use Norton anti virus so when I opened the Windows firewall selection in the control panel, the Norton window opened and the fix was identical to the one shown in this link. http://maximumpcguides.com/windows-7/open-a-port-in-windows-7s-firewall/
Follow the instructions on the page and for step #7, enter 3689. When you get to step #10, I typed in "Apple TV Home Sharing" so I could identify the port later on. I made these changes, rebooted the computer, started iTunes, turned on the Apple TV and everything worked. Try it and this should solve what seems to be a common problem.

Solved - at least all good so far.
I had to add rules to my firewall software (Symantec Endpoint Protection) for Bonjour (UDP 5353) and DAAP (TCP 3689). Once I did that, the other librares were shown in SHARING and the Apple TV reliably connects.
What I don't understand was why it worked at all without the rules in place.
