  • [PROBLEM SOLVED] After last update, Can't use keyboard in Xorg

    Apparently the last system upgrade installed "xf86-input-keyboard-1.3.2-1-i686" but I reverted back to "xf86-input-keyboard-1.3.1-1-i686" and everything is working again.
    Lesson learned: put all xorg related packages to hold because my geforce2 mx440 won't need updates.
    This is just frustrating. After doing a system upgrade (which upgraded xorg to version 1.5) I can't use the keyboard anymore. In fact, my screen would freeze also, as long as I was using the latest Xorg version. This machine's card is a geforce2 mx440.
    So I downgraded xorg-server with pacman -Rd xorg-server and pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xorg-server-yadayada1.4yadayada; Fine, I can use the mouse and open X just as normal as before. BUT the keyboard seems helpless.

    Perhaps you can find some help here http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xor … otplugging (or in one of the many threads about xorg 1.5 breaking input devices)
    No Idea about your problem after downgrading (expect just as a guess, there is some problem with xbinkeys when it is autostarted with the window manager -- http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=65468).

  • [SOLVED] Gnome 3.8.3 received hard reset after last update

    Hey,
    my gnome seems to be totally destroyed since the laste update! my keybindings and language settings are broken. I cannot change gnome settings (via tweak tool). I cannot do anything...
    does someone have an idea what could be the cause for this?

    Hello Sorry for the inconvenience, but I have a problem in Java I can not open files, audio chat, which type of jnlp after the last update of the Java 2012-004
    Please help me in solving this problem. 

    Make sure Java is enable in your browser's security settings.
    Open Java Preferences (in Utilities folder)
    Make sure Web-start applications are enabled.
    Drag Java 32-bit to the top of the list.
    jnlp isn't an audio file format. It's just a java web-start program (Java Network Launching Protocol).

  • [SOLVED] Bad font rendering and overlapping since last update

    Hi all! Since the last updates I'm getting font rendering problems. I'm seeing something like this in lots of applications:
    See the "ce" in Facebook, those letters are kinda overlapped! This happens in Nautilus too, for example in the word "devel". I'm using the Ubuntu patches for font rendering, but actually I have problems even with the stock packages.
    I'm on a fresh install right now (I really needed to clean the old one, too much experimenting xD) and I keep having this problem.
    Can anyone help me?
    SOLVED I downgraded pango from 1.32.1-1 to 1.30.1-1 and everything went back to normality

  • Last update to ios6 - worst ever, facetime does not work as it used to, problems with skype

    last update to ios6 - worst ever, facetime does not work as it used to, problems with skype, losing connection or no9t connecting facetime to face time. Do something with it.

    I'm not sure yet, but It may be as simple as "settings", "FaceTime" "Off"

  • [SOLVED]Cannot run own program since last update : malloc.c:3096 error

    Hi all,
    It seems that due to a recent update a program that I am working on doesn't run any more.
    It doesn't rely on any external libraries and compiles fine, but when it gets to a : "pointer = new class_object[4096];" it crashes with the error:
    malloc.c:3096: sYSMALLOc: Assertion `(old_top == (((mbinptr) (((char *) &((av)->bins[((1) - 1) * 2])) - __builtin_offsetof (struct malloc_chunk, fd)))) && old_size == 0) || ((unsigned long) (old_size) >= (unsigned long)((((__builtin_offsetof (struct malloc_chunk, fd_nextsize))+((2 * (sizeof(size_t))) - 1)) & ~((2 * (sizeof(size_t))) - 1))) && ((old_top)->size & 0x1) && ((unsigned long)old_end & pagemask) == 0)' failed.
    Aborted
    I've done some searching but have been unable to find much other than this thread: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=654908 which leads me to believe that it might be a library version conflict. I am unsure how to debug this though. I also own an nvidia card running nvidia drivers, and the nvidia drivers were updated in the last update but I do not have the same file that the previous poster had a conflict with. I am also not sure how the nvidia drivers would cause problems as I'm not linking with OpenGL or any library other than the standard library.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Well this problem works both in debug and release builds. I've got the bug down to the individual line that it crashes at, I create an instance of a class like this:
    Vec3 *vectorlist;
    vectorlist = new Vec3[5012]; //CRASHES ON THIS LINE
    Vec3 is a class that I've defined for 3D vectors. It doesn't do anything complicated or special, the constructor simply initializes the 3 components of the vector to 0. I am happy to post the full code (it isn't very complex) if someone else wants to try compiling it to see if it works on their computer.
    I think the problem might not be in my code (considering it worked before the update), but instead might be some clash between library versions as in the thread that I linked to in my first post. I am not sure how to go about debugging a problem like this though.

  • Why the video calls under the Skype are still not fixed in the last update?

    I am deeply dissapointed with the last update to the operating system of my new (2013) MacBook Air. The video calls didn't work, but I have followed one of the remedy on the net and made it working. After the update the problem returned. This problem is known for couple of months and the Apple doesn't care. Why ??? Can you please inform me and everybody else when you fix it, untill then I would not update OS. Thank you.

    Download and install this latest Combo Update.

    Hey guys, after last update every time i make some mistake while typing on console (rxvt) or at the file search on gnome, this weird sound comes out from pc speaker (some eletric bizzz). I can't find anything related to this, does anyone knows if that is some kind of configuration of Xorg or it's a bug?
    Thanks for any help!

    Hello Gvescovi!
    What does it mean for misstyping? The speaker gives sound in such a cases.
    You can disable it:

  • [SOLVED] Dzen2 artifacts since last update

    Hello,
    I'm having a problem with Dzen2: since the last update to version 0.8.5-4 it shows artifacts (or whatever else it is; not looking good at any rate)
    I have two dzens: one is always on showing unread mail, battery, date and time:
    (notice vertical lines after "5" and "twenty";
    the other I can turn on and off and it shows various diagnostics:
    (notice "black holes", that's one of the versions of the error),
    (black and white rectangles, that's another one).
    I haven't changed anything in the feeding scripts since long before the las update.
    This is the small one (the first screenshot): http://pokazywarka.pl/dl3tnj/;
    this is the big one (the second and third screenshots): http://pokazywarka.pl/se2h2x-2/.
    Could anyone help me, please?

    The issue comes up on my computer too but enabling the XFT option in the dzen2's configuration fixes the problem. The package linked does this by default.
    But I'm interested in this bug because I don't think this is dzen2's bug. It worked very nicely until the update of X.
    In fact I can reproduce this with the stock dzen2 from the community repo:
    dzen2 -bg '#404000' -fg '#777777' -h 16 -sa c -e '' -ta l -fn '-*-dejavu sans mono-medium-r-normal-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' -tw 1350
    and the first line of the input:
    aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaa tal aaaaaaaaa
    the garbage begins after the "tal" part until the next "aaa..." section. Interestingly changing the "tal" string makes the problem go away.
    I'm using an ATI card with the open source drivers, not sure it matters though.
    Anyways, as I've said using Xft makes the problem go away, but still it shouldn't work this way.

  • Last update broke keyboard..-(Solved)-

    It seems that disabling input hotplugging doesn't work with the last update of xf86-input-keyboard or xf86-input-evdev.
    Now, I must enable input hotplugging. If not, I have a us keyboard on kdm and get errors in Xorg.log :

  • My BBZ10 is not working properly since my last update (OS 10.3.1.224​3

    OK so to start on a positive - I have been the biggest advocate of Blackberry over the last 3 years and have found it a really easy phone to just pick up and use without having to spend much time with user manuals. I started on a Torch and am now using the BB Z10. I found the switch nice and easy & have loved both phones. Up until now, bar the odd little niggle, I have loved using Blackberry.
    I had a notification to update to OS 10.3.1.2243 (no matter how often I read my notification, it would keep changing to unread and start flashing again) which was a nuisance, but I needed to sort through my notifications first and delete FB as the last update I did, restored ALL my FB notifictions since I'd had the phone, so definitely needed to avoid that scenario.
    I could see there had been some changes - layout different, easier to delete messages etc which is great, HOWEVER, I am really disappointed with how it's messed my phone up which I have never had before. There is now a new line in BBM that wasn't there before which covers the message that I am typing, so I can't actually see what I am typing. Every time I unlock my phone, my screen enlarges so I can't really see much on the hub/notification screen and it defaults to the hub which it didn't do before), my ringtone is much softer than it was previously and BBM no longer has a ringtone. Whatsapp, (the current winner of sending messages as I can actually see what I'm typing) actually has a tone but it's really soft, so not only can I not see what I am typing, but I can't hear when I get a message either, even if it's a person who has a specific ringtone for BBM
    My notifications keep freezing (can be when I am on looking at email notifications, Facebook etc) and some of my keys keep freezing when I am trying to type (p is the worst) and is generally making using my BB highly irritating. In fact there are times that I am so irritated that I want to throw my phone on the floor and jump on it. There is nothing wrong with the phone as it worked perfectly prior to the update, so this must be bugs in the new OS which is not good at all as these problems should have been ironed out prior to release.
    Does anyone know me how to fix this or can tell me when the next update is out to fix the bugs? It's all good and well adding all these great features, but if they mess up the basics, none of that is important and if I was nearing the end of my contract, I would definitely not be going Blackberry which is a shame as I've never had an update problem before with BB.
    Solved!

    Hi bunjamin,
    just go to BlackBerry World, and update all your apps including BBM.

    you can turn off the magnifying glass :
    device settings >> accessibility >> magnify mode >> OFF
    you can deactivate the "reset to Hub view" :
    hub >> overflow (bottom right button) >> Settings >> Display and actions >> Return to Default View When Idle >> OFF

    yes, BlackBerry has acknowledged this bug in this article from the public knowledge base:

  • Since the last update for my Iphone 4s i dont get text messages when connected to wifi. my wife is getting them. Imessage is switched off on both phones.

    since the 6. version update. of my Iphone 4s My wife was getting my text messages. I found the problem was caused by Imessage when connected to Wifi. I deactivated Imessage on both phones to solve the problem. I now have updated my Iphone to 6.1.1 and i dont get text messages anymore. I have Imessage deactivated on my phone but my wife is getting my text messages again. my wifes phone was not updated to 6.1.1 because the last update lost all her contacts from her phone and we had to but them back in one by one from the outlook list. Her contact are listed in outlook on a seperate list to mine but we can only get my contacts download to her phone. We use the same laptop to sysc phones.
    My Iphone does not download photos to My Pictures anymore. I have to copy them across to a folder. I cant find where it backs them up to.
    I have lost all confidence in Apple now as i was forced to update to 6.1.1 because of 3G reception issues and not reciving calls and now back to spending several hours trying to fix my phone to recieve a basic text message.

    Are you and your wife sharing apple id?
    If you are that is the reason why she is seeing your imessage.
    On both phone go to settings - message - send&receive - make sure the cell is the default.
    You will have to uncheck or remove the apple id.

  • The last update turned on iCloud. How do I get my calendar to sync with outlook now?

    The last update turned on iCloud. How do I get my calendar to sync with outlook now?

    iCloud wasn't on, I accepted iTunes offer to upgrade to 6.1.1.
    Next time I went to sync through iTunes, iCloud was on.
    Your advice appears to have solved my problem...for now.
    Thank you.
    Historically, the upgrade to 6.0 lost all of my contacts.
    A manual restore brought them back.
    Tech support said "Oh, that happens sometimes, you have to back up before upgrades", fortunately I do.
    Again, thank you for the help.
