Traxkpoint press_to_select by default in LXDM

I want to enable "press_to_select" for my trackpoint by default while booting and disable the touchpad at the some time. I use LXDM so I added
echo -n 1 | tee /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/serio2/press_to_select
synclient TouchpadOff=1 &
to /etc/lxdm/LoginReady
Now, when I login, the touchpad is disabled, while the press_to_select option is not. Any suggestions? (If I run these commands seperately in the command line, all works well)

  • [SOLVED] Metacity autostart programs without GNOME

    Hi,
    I would like to use a session with metacity + lxpanel (starts from LXDM)
    then I have edited my .dmrc:
    $ cat ~/.dmrc
    [Desktop]
    Session=metacity
    it works, but when I login my session (default) from LXDM, there is only metacity with nothing. how can I add "lxpanel" on start?
    I tryed to put "lxpanel.desktop" on" ~/.config/autostart" but it doesn't work.
    Someone can help me?
    Thanks.

    i have a problem with "lxde-logout" of lxpanel: it doesn't work good, when i press "logout" nothing happens ("Shutdown" and "Reboot" work)
    maybe i need to edit "/etc/lxdm/PostLogout"?
    $ cat /etc/lxdm/PostLogout
    #!/bin/sh
    # Note: this is a sample and will not be run as is.
    test -x /usr/bin/pax11publish && /usr/bin/pax11publish -r
    # Terminate current user session
    /usr/bin/loginctl terminate-session $XDG_SESSION_ID
    # Restart lxdm

  • [SOLVED] LXDM not saving selected session,Default session doesn't work

    Hello,
    I'm trying to use LXDM to start my desktop. However, every single time I log in, I have to tell it to use XFCE as my session.
    Even if I choose it manually, after logout/login it just resets to "Default session" (which doesn't work: just drops back to LXDM).
    I looked everywhere in my home directory and not found any place where it stores the session.
    Any ideas? lxdm 0.4.1-8, xfce 4.8, x86-64 Arch Linux.
    Thanks.

  • [SOLVED] LXDM and Other Catastrophe's

    Compared to the arch-fu practitioners here I'm a total noob so bear with me . And sorry if this has been solved before, I searched but found nothing.
    My second attempt at installing Arch was going kind-of smoothly until I got to configuring LXDM. No matter what I do it keeps logging into the default X session (twm) rather than my wm's (openbox/scrotwm). I tried fiddling with lxdm.conf and /etc/lxdm/Xsession only to break it completely (login loop). I also tried this to no avail. I even tried symlinking~/.Xsession to /etc/lxdm/Xsession, which made no difference. So I'm assuming I have to modify /etc/lxdm/Xsession in some way?
    All this messing about (4 days and counting) and other niggling configs I've borked (shutdown and reboot break with ata2 errors, acpid to blame?) has got me considering ArchBang (Blasphemy!) and modding from there. But then I saw how many gnome bits it has, I don't want to load the entire gnome library for no good reason and I assume removing all of it would be a pain?

    "$1" is a special variable, known as Positional parameters, they are basically the commandline parameters.
    For example:
    myscript some option another_option
    <--$0--> <$1> <-$2-> <-----$3----->
    <---------------$*---------------->
    <---------------$#----------------> # Number of Arguments, in this case $# = 3 (doesn't include $0)
    More info on bash/shell scripting can be found on Greg's wiki
    In the mean time...
    So I downloaded LXDM and I'm at a loss. I have no idea where it's finding the various window managers (including non-existent ones, and in some cases not at all). The only file which exists on my system sourced within /etc/lxdm/Xsessions is "/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc", which, even though it's the same as the skeleton file, doesn't merge my X[defaults|resources]. Yet it seems to use some commands from my ~/.xinitrc such as feh background setting.
    Documentation is... sparse (.dmrc?)
    Edit:
    Giving up, hopefully someone with more experience/knowledge can help. Sorry
    Edit2:
    Right. It seems that the list of WMs/DEs is actually built from .desktop entires under /usr/share/xsessions/. (I know you mentioned this already)
    So if you want to add i3, simply drop an i3.desktop file containing something like:
    [Desktop Entry]
    Name=i3
    Exec=i3
    Checking the source indicates that LXDM seems to only look for the "Name", "Exec" and "Desktop Entry".
    Edit3:
    Okay, reinstalled LXDM and tested this theory. Made a bogus.desktop file under /usr/share/xsessions and used the following contents:
    [Desktop Entry]
    Name=Bogus
    Exec=wmii
    Logged out, started LXDM and sure enough, I had a new entry named "Bogus" which launched wmii. I didn't alter any config files at all. (brand new install)
    PS: Bedtime!

  • LXDM Not Changing Background

    Hello people!
    When I try changing the background of LXDM, display manager, it won't change. I am following this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11557021. I also made sure the path is right.
    Thanks, and happy new year!

    Not an LXDM user, so just a long-shot here ... but the Ubuntu wiki describes default.conf, while the arch wiki refers to lxdm.conf.  Are you sure LXDM is reading the file you are editing?

  • [solved] lxdm, slim: startup delay

    I'm trying to switch from lightdm to lxdm in order to work around the awesome keymap bug.
    When I start lxdm using systemctl start lxdm.service I get a black screen and nothing happens for about 70 seconds. Then the lxdm greeter finally shows up, everything works fine and there are no errors or hints in the logs.
    Any idea what could cause the delay? I tried lxdm-git from AUR, but no difference.
    Thanks in advance,

    Okay, solved my own problem (another episode of strace-to-the-rescue)
    The login managers in question seem to open a connection to '::1' (the IPv6 loopback) on startup. My ip6tables lacked a rule for accepting all loopback traffic, and as my default target for INPUT is DROP, the connection attempt was dropped and startup therefore delayed until the timeout for connection establishment is reached.
    Damn this was weird...

    ##   This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
    ##   No raid, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.

    ##   This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
    ##   No autodetection is done.
    #    HOOKS="base udev pata scsi sata usb filesystems"
    ##   This setup assembles a pata mdadm array with an encrypted root FS.
    ##   Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm' for more information on raid devices.

    ##   This setup loads an lvm2 volume group on a usb device.

  • LXDM - Strange characters / keyboard selector empty

    Hey there,
    Im trying (desperately) to get lxdm into a usable state. It seems to me that thing is bugged beyond all recognition... But slim is deserted and qingy apparently won't do with systemd, so what choice do I have?
    Anyway, there are two (well, three) issues left that I cannot solve:
    1a. There are commas shown before my username and it is in parentheses: ",,,(<username>)". This isn't normal, is it?
    1b. "More..." in the user list is line-wrapped, but I assume this is because my username is so short (only one char). It does not bother me THAT much, although it would be nice if it could be solved.
    2. The keyboard layout selector is empty. Or, more precisely, full of ghost entries.
    Any advice?
    PS: If someone can tell me how to make screenshots of a display manager, I'd be happy to provide those for clarification. (scrot just returns a black file)

  • [SOLVED] lxdm autologin won't work since last upgrade

    Hi,
    Since last upgrade, lxdm won't autologin anymore.
    I had a lxdm.conf.pacnew file wich added only a commented line that I added into the conf file, wich does look like this :

    #autologin=dgod

    session=/usr/bin/startlxde
    #session=/usr/bin/openbox-session
    ## uncomment and set to set numlock on your keyboard
    # numlock=0
    ## set this if you don't want to put xauth file at ~/.Xauthority

    [userlist]
    ## if disable the user list control at greeter
    disable=0
    ## whitelist user
    white=
    ## blacklist user
    black=
    Since there were no uncommented lines added, I assumed it would make no difference.
    Edit :
    Now, the system goes to the login screen instead of autologin.
    lxdm brings me to my session if I log in however.

    Not sure why OlaffTheGreat uses LXDM, but I use it because you get it for free as part of the LXDE group, and I'm too lazy to change it.  My security is the 30 to 40 character passphrase I need to unlock my encrypted drives.  Then having to type in an 8 character easily guessed user password is beyond annoying.
    I just checked my pacman cache files and it looks like the upgrade to 0.4-1-25 is when I first got the error (currently listed as 9 days ago which would be about right).  I upgraded, booted and got the login screen that I was not supposed to.  I had just merged the pacnew file so it was fresh in my head and made the changes I described.  Booted again and got the autologin and I didn't think another thing about it until I saw this post earlier today.  Upgraded again this weekend to 0.4-1-27 with no problems.

    I am attempting to configure autologin for LXDE using LXDM by editing /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf (autologin=username).  When I do so, I am logged into a session that looks unfamiliar.  It almost looks like a base openbox session or something with no wallpaper, no autostart scripts, etc.  If I manually choose LXDE from the session dropdown menu in LXDM, the proper session loads.  When choosing Default from the session dropdown menu in LXDM, I am logged into this unfamiliar session.  Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?  Here is my /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf file:
    [base]
    ## uncomment and set autologin username to enable autologin
    # autologin=
    ## uncomment and set timeout to enable timeout autologin,
    ## the value should >=5
    # timeout=10
    ## default session or desktop used when no systemwide config
    session=/usr/bin/startlxde
    ## uncomment and set to set numlock on your keyboard
    # numlock=0
    ## set this if you don't want to put xauth file at ~/.Xauthority
    # xauth_path=/tmp
    ## greeter used to welcome the user
    greeter=/usr/lib/lxdm/lxdm-greeter-gtk
    [server]
    ## arg used to start xserver, not fully function
    # arg=/usr/bin/X -background vt1
    [display]
    ## gtk theme used by greeter
    gtk_theme=Waldorf
    ## background of the greeter
    # bg=/usr/share/backgrounds/default.png
    ## if show bottom pane
    bottom_pane=1
    ## if show language select control
    # lang=1
    ## if show keyboard layout select control
    # keyboard=0
    ## the theme of greeter
    theme=Industrial
    [input]
    [userlist]
    ## if disable the user list control at greeter
    disable=0
    ## whitelist user
    white=
    ## blacklist user
    black=

    Terminator wrote:The configuration file is correct and LXDM should start LXDE by default, unless you override the default session in a file ~/.dmrc. If you have such a file, try renaming/removing it. If you don't, then I have no clue.
    It turns out Terminator was right.  I'm not sure where I was looking before but I do have a ~/.dmrc file and it was set to Session=openbox instead of Session=lxde.  I changed the setting and everything is working great now.  Thanks!

  • [SOLVED!] Archiso -- KDM - LXDM don't start at boot (enabled)

    Hello,
    I have installed on this computer my customized Archiso (with no special configurations). I have enabled kdm.service, but nothing happened. After reboot either.
    I have now tried with LXDM, same thing. With "systemctl status" I usually get something like: "enabled, dead"
    If I start kdm or lxdm manually, it works.
    sudo systemctl start lxdm; sudo systemctl status lxdm

    On some posts they mentioned that maybe nvidia or a module starts up too late, or the login managers too early.
    Any tips/hints on what should I try?
    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers!

    Hi anandkumar,
    I belive this issue can be resolved by changing the  Query proprties for the perticular field.
    Kindly check the Field proerties in query designer and ensure that Text is enabled ather than Key.
    __Field property check up:__Go to query designer->click onn the field-> Right hand side in properties click on display tab-> select Text in drop down menu of Display as tab.
    FURTHER CHECK UP: check the master data avaiulability for the perticular info object, if masterdata is not available, do the text data for txt data availability in report level.
    Hope this helps you!!

  • NULL and default!!

    hi,
    I have created a table as below.
    CREATE TABLE student
    (      Rollno      CHAR(8),
         Name          VARCHAR2(20),
    Fees          DECIMAL(12,2) DEFAULT 100.00
    can someone please explain the effects of the following insert statements.
    a] insert into student values('c123','Patrick');
    b] insert into student values('c123','Patrick',NULL);
    Will both of them have different effects on the values entered into the table? And what will be entered into the columns in both the cases.

  • How to get ALL values as default for  a drop down box in JSF

    Hi,
    I have a drop down box in JSF page which retrieves values from LOVCache.java. I have values like Company, Client, User, ALL in the drop down box.
    By default blank value is selected for the drop down box. I want to make ALL(which retrieves data for all the values) as default value for the drop down box.
    Could any body help me? Any help must be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Aseet

    Thanks Nikhil. But I am fetching the values from the LOVCache.java.
    I am using <af:selectManyChoice>. Is there any way I can use LOVCache.java value for selecting default values instead of hard coding?
    I mean to say can I write
    unselectedLabel="#{LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList.anyValue}"
    where LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList is used to populate the drop down box.
    Regards,
    Aseet
