[SOLVED]Xorg: cannot change keymap and add multiple langs

~/.xinitrc
setxkbmap -layout gb,dk,lt -option grp:alt_shift_toggle
I've followed wiki and this didn't change anything. My keymap is currently us and alt+shift change doesn't react.

It may well be a driver issue but considering the loading: Xorg trying to load different drivers is somewhat normal. @cafe you can see that these are autoconfigured by X above the loading in the log:
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 1
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 2
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 3
Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 4
As long as one of the drivers gets loaded, which it apparently does the failing of the others is fine.
Was there an update maybe ?

[SOLVED] Xorg 1.16 updated and won't start with Nvidia driver

I tried updating to xorg 1.16 yesterday and after rebooting everything stopped after "[OK] Reached target Network."
I was able to switch to a different terminal and downgrade to xorg 1.15 to boot again.
I've seen https://www.archlinux.org/news/xorg-ser … available/ but I'm not sure what it implies I need to change to get it to work. I am running Gnome 3 with GDM.
I'm fairly new to Arch so any help to get me moving in the right direction would be great.
Thanks,
Justin

That fixed it! You guys are awesome.
For other's reference...
Once booted press Ctrl+Alt+F2 to get another terminal. Log in and type the following to downgrade the xorg packages.
cd /var/cache/pacman/pkg
sudo pacman -U xorg-server-1.15.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz xf86-input-evdev-2.9.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
sudo reboot
Once it reboots you should have your desktop again. Run nvidia-settings and go to X Server Display Configuration. From there click Save to X Configuration File and save the file as 20-nvidia.conf. Then move the file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf if you saved it somewhere else.
Upgrade back to xorg 1.16 and reboot.

How to change country and add credit card details

Hi
I'm unable to change my itunes store account permanently. I can change my store from "UK" to "UAE" and then the store I'm in is the UAE's, however when I then go to the top left, choose account to try and add my cc details the country still shows UK. I then go back to Account info where I'm offered the chance to chanage my country, I then change it to "UAE" and am brought back to the iTunes home page, now again in the correct country. However when I go back to the account to once again try and add my cc details the country shows as "UK".
I have successfully changed the country through the Apple website and so my Apple ID has the correct address associated with it, but not so when I try to log into it in iTunes.
Grateful for any help.

Problem fixed - once I changed the country to UAE and was brought back to what looked like a home page for iTunes UAE offering to set up an ID however once I followed the screens and agreed to the terms (all in Arabic - I couldn't find a way to show English) I was then brought to the screen for adding CC details but this time my country was listed as UAE.

AS3 Load external image and add multiple instances to mcs

Hi,
Is there any way to load an external image and add it to more than one movie clip?
Thanks,
Chris McLaughlin

Hi kglad,
I was loading a larger jpeg to which I was applying 20 different masks so using the bitmapdata class to create duplicates was the best solution.
It took me some time to wrap my head around it, but all is well.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Best regards,

Cannot change tools and cannot use selection or crop tools

I am using Photoshop Extended CS6. A new problem has started to occur recently. I can select a tool, but I can't change the tool type. For example, I can select the Lasso Tool and when I right-click the tool fly-out appears, but I cannot select a tool from the fly-out to change the tool type. The editing tools, at least the ones I can select, still work except for the selection and crop tools. For the crop tool, the crop lines appear at the edge of the image but they cannot be moved. For the selection tools, nothing is selected. I can still use menu commands such as Canvas Size.
This happens when I open a file or start a new file. I have Windows 7, 4G memory and nothing else running. I have tried 32-bt and 64-bit versions.
This has happened intermittently for a month or two. In the past, freeing up space on a hard drive seemed to help. But now I have 50G free on one drive and 30G free on another so I don't see how that could be the problem. Rebooting allows me to use the crop tool once, but then the problem reoccurs.
Ideas, anyone?

No keyboard macro programs installed. Microsoft Security Essentials is installed. It says it is up to date and there are no problems. A keyboard test program found no problems. I have tried two USB keyboards with the same results I have 10% free on my system drive: and 15% free on my second drive.
More clues:
If I open Photoshop by opening a file, the problem immediately occurs. If I open Photoshop and then open a file, it works until I press a key as described above.
The problem only occurs in Photoshop. I’ve tried lots of other programs, including Premiere, Audition and Illustrator; they all work correctly.
The problem can occur without a keyboard attached. As I described above, if I switch to another application (Windows Explorer in my test) and then switch back, the problem occurs. This is true even if there is no internal keyboard and no USB keyboard.

How to loop and add multiple records from db in .pdf using cfdocument

I have a query that pulls a users information (Id, FirstName,
LastName, Title,etc). I then use cfdocument to output a person's
biography into a pdf. This is great, because we no longer have to
manually create bios, as they are now all dynamically generated.
The problem I have now is that we want to be able to select
multiple users and create a .pdf with each of their bios included
in the one pdf.
How do I loop thru records from a sql database in a
cfdocument that includes a header and footer in cfdocument items,
and ensure that one persons bio doesn't continue on the page with
anothers.
Here's the code I have so far for the cfdocument:

Put the query around just the body of your cfdocument not
around the whole cfdocument tag. Also, move any query information
out of the header and put that in the body of the document. Lastly,
put a cfdocumentitem pagebreak after each bio...you will need to
check the recordcount of the query against the row you are on so
that you don't add an empty page break at the end.

Multiple still images imported (how to change timing AND do multiple transitions)

I imported into the project resources many still photos. The defaut time for each seems to be 5.1 second. If I drag them into the timeline, select them all and change the duration there are time gaps between images...how can I scrunch them together easily OR how can I change the default time duration before I drag them to the timeline?
Second...if I have all my photos on a timeline can I set the transition effect on more than two at a time? Can I set the transition for all of them at once (a different query)
Thanks, -bill

When you've selected your still and used the Speed/Duration command, be sure to tick the "Ripple Edit, Shifting Trailing Clips" option in the panel. That will remove any empty space between clips that would otherwise be generated when decreasing the duration of your clips.
Second...if I have all my photos on a timeline can I set the transition effect on more than two at a time? Can I set the transition for all of them at once (a different query)
Yes, though there are two preliminary steps. First, in the Effects panel click the flyout button (that stack of pancakes with the little downward facing arrow) or go to Edit > Preferences > General and select the Default Transition Duration option and change it to your desired setting. Second, in the Effects panel, select the transition you want and right-click it and select "Set Selected as Default Transition".
Now, select your clips/stills in the timeline and go to Sequence > Apply Default Transitions to Selection; the transition you just set up will be applied to all of your clips. Note that, by default, this will add audio transitions as well, if you're using combined video/audio clips (probably not a worry in your case as you're using stills), but you can hold down the Alt key to select just the video or just the audio portions of your clips, if you only want one transition type or the other. You can also temporarily lock any tracks where you don't want transitions before you use the command.
Also, since you're working with stills, you don't have to worry about handles; if you import a still into Premiere, even if its duration is only a single frame, you have an indefinite/infinite amount of frames to use for editing and transition purposes. Video/audio clips are a different story, of course...

Cannot change settings to add videos

when I click on the ipod button at the bottom of itunes, the options come up, but when I go to the video tab, it is greyed out and I cannot add videos to my ipod - please help as I need to know how.....

Is your music set to "Manual" update". This is why it is grayed out. Drag and drop the videos to the IPOD icon or into a Video Playlist.

[SOLVED] Xorg Hotplug, Openbox, CLI and native characters and fonts

-- according to a suggestion from: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 82#p683282 am posting this as a separate thread--
Does anyone happen to encounter the following problem.
Before the update: no local (polish) characters in the GUI apps when I type (openbox) but the characters in CLI apps run under openbox display fonts correctly while typing
After the update, situation is reversed (i have tried to configure the hal policy but apparently I am missing something)
GUI apps under openbox display polish fonts correctly when I type and CLI apps (tilda, gvim, etc) dispplay '?' instead of local charcters when I type
Displaying previously created files which include polish characters display squares insted of the aforementioned glyphs.
I have tried numerous hints found on the web:
- modification of the 10-keymap.fdi file
- regenerate locale
- set xset fp+ /usr/share..
...but I'm running out of ideas.
So if any of you knows how to get rid of that crappy behaviour please share your priceless knowledge smile
BTW. under KDE everything seems to work fine...

I am using Terminus for most of my CLI apps.
The Konsole app is somehow and exception if I set Terminus Font and UTF-8 or ISO-8859-2 encoding, but the fonts are ugly, like here:
other apps do not work no matter what I set.
The point is it was working well before xorg hotplugging was enabled. Afterwards...you can see yourelf...
@tomk: I'll try, but this should have nothing to do with specific nation whatsoever

I don't know if that does matter but its arch64...

[SOLVED] efibootmgr cannot change bootorder

I just did a clean installation on my system (got a bunch of new HDDs) and I've not had any issues with it before, but I cannot get the UEFI firmware to accept the bootorder commands from efibootmgr.
# efibootmgr
BootCurrent: 0002
Timeout: 1 seconds
BootOrder: 0000,0001,0002,0003
Boot0000* SATA3:WDC WD5000AVVS-63ZWB0
Boot0001* IBA GE Slot 0200 v1321
Boot0002* GRUB2
Boot0003* UEFI: Built-in EFI Shell
I can choose GRUB2 (option 0002) from my firmware to boot, but if I try to change the bootorder, for example:
# efibootmgr -o 2,0,1,3
BootCurrent: 0002
Timeout: 1 seconds
BootOrder: 0002,0000,0001,0003
Boot0000* SATA3:WDC WD5000AVVS-63ZWB0
Boot0001* IBA GE Slot 0200 v1321
Boot0002* GRUB2
Boot0003* UEFI: Built-in EFI Shell
As you can see, the order does not change. However, other commands from efibootmanager succeed (e.g. I can delete boot entries and create them).
Has anyone encountered this issue? It used to work just fine for me. I'm considering clearing the CMOS on my 'board and just creating the entries again.

Looks to me like it worked.
You specified:
efibootmgr -o 2,0,1,3
And the output shows:
BootOrder: 0002,0000,0001,0003

[Desktop] Select and Add multiple artists or multiple albums to playlist

Add a way to add an artist and their albums/songs to a playlist, or be able to select multiple albums to add to a playlist.like you can select multiple songs to add to a list. This may have been asked before, but after digging around I couldn't find much on the subject. there are times I find it would be easier just to select multiple artists or albums artist to a playlist instead of just a song.
