Hi All,
I decided to live dangerously (with backups) and I recently upgraded my
laptop install from Jessie to Ascii.
It was a full fledged installation (X and all the bells and whistles...)
and so far so good except for a couple of little things.
Slim got hit as apt-getting it throws:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
slim : Depends: libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.13-4) but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
really minor and I didn't really investigate a lot on this, but if some
of you has already faced it any hint would be greatly appreciated.
Instead there is something more serious (to me)....
I use a mixed XFCE environment with i3 as window manager and I was using
xmodmap and xcape to modify some key bindings, in particular I map the
spacebar to Hyper_L on press and xcape-ing it to space again on release,
as per my .xmodmaprc (attached) and calling it in .profile (attached)
when xfce/i3 loads the key binding is not loading on startup no matter
what I do.
xmodmap is complainig when in terminal emulator I run:
$ . .profile
xmodmap: commandline:1: bad add modifier name 'hyper_l', not allowed
xmodmap: 1 error encountered, aborting.
The strange thing is that CTRL-CAPS (also in xmodmaprc) swap is
recognised initially and reverted on when I source .profile.
Also the other mapping (keycode 94 = Control_R) seems to never work.
Hello Antonio,
You should first remove a specific function (Control_R) from its global
function (Control) before binding a new keycode to it. An example will
be more clear:
instead of doing:
keycode 94 = Control_R
add Control = Control_R
do:
remove Control = Control_R
keycode 94 = Control_R
add Control = Control_R
About assigning Hyper_L to mod3. On my system Hyper_L is bound to mod4.
You can verify if it applies to yours by executing 'xmodmap' without
arguments. So I first need to unbind it from mod4, then bind it to mod3.
remove mod4 = Hyper_L
add mod3 = Hyper_L
Hope this helps,
Giovanni
Do you have any idea?
Thanks in advance.
Antonio
