Re: Wired fontconfig behavior
Additional info:
the following will happen only under zh_CN locale, and when
I change locale to en_US, it will in a correct sequence without
requiring a ``fc-cache'' .
How is the font matching/selection affected by locales?
Thank you!

Hi list,
I set alias of monospace in my ${HOME}/.fonts.conf like this:
| alias
| familymonospace/family
| prefer
| familyBitstream Vera Sans Mono/family
| familyFZXiYuan-M01S/family
| /prefer
| /alias
but with fc-match, I found the latter have a higher position:
| [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ fc-match -s monospace|head
| fzyljw.ttf: FZXiYuan-M01S Regular
| VeraMono.ttf: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono Roman
| ...
where the FZXiYuan is a Chinese font. Even if I substitute FZXiYuan
with another Chinese fonts and substitute bitstream with another
Lattin fonts, it behaviors like above.
The same thing occured on serif and sans-serif also, however, for
bitstream fonts, it works well, for instance
| alias
| familyBitstream Vera Sans Mono/family
| prefer
| familyBitstream Vera Sans Mono/family
| familyFZXiYuan-M01S/family
| /prefer
| /alias
and with fc-match:
| [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ fc-match -s Bitstream Vera Sans Mono|head
| VeraMono.ttf: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono Roman
| fzyljw.ttf: FZXiYuan-M01S Regular
|.
What's wrong with monospace, sans-serif, and serif?
any ideas?
Thank you!

Hal/hotkey/power management problem, hal does not pass some key events to dbus
Hi List, I just installed debian sid on a Thinkpad X60 Laptop, while I press sleep hotkey, acpid will sent KEY_SLEEP key event as a keyboard press event, and handled by hal, then managed by gnome-power-manager. HOWEVER, when hibernate key pressed, it sent a KEY_SUSPEND key event, but NOTHING appeared on dbus, and g-p-m did nothing. In acpid log, both things are handled, and run scripts, which look like: | . /usr/share/acpi-support/key-constants | acpi_fakekey $KEY_SUSPEND and by dbus-monitor, when $KEY_SLEEP sent, I saw | signal sender=:1.3 - dest=(null destination) | path=/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port_logicaldev_input; | interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=Condition | string ButtonPressed | string sleep but when hibernate or lock key pressed, i.e. KEY_COFFEE/KEY_SUSPEND are sent, nothing happend. Moreover, g-p-m cannot work if I remove the acpi_fakekey line when I press sleep button, even though the hotkey ACPI events are also listened by hald-addon-acpi. Did anyone meet such problem?

root cannot su to normal user now
Hi All, I have 2 linux computer, one is running testing, and the other is running unstable. Now the sid one cannot use `su' to change from root to any user, including itself. cannot su - xx cannot su xx cannot su xx -c 'command' but the 'su -c' is improtant for the acpid script for the button of laptop. The libpam0g version in the sid machine is 0.79-1, and in the etch machine is 0.76-23, and I did enable the ``auth sufficient pam_rootok.so'' in ``/etc/pam.d/su'' and enable the wheel group in it. Any advices? Many thanks. The following is my /etc/pam.d/su, while other setting about pam and login is shipped with the distribution. # # The PAM configuration file for the Shadow `su' service # # Uncomment this to force users to be a member of group root # before they can use `su'. You can also add group=foo to # to the end of this line if you want to use a group other # than the default root. # (Replaces the `SU_WHEEL_ONLY' option from login.defs) auth required pam_wheel.so group=adm # Uncomment this if you want wheel members to be able to # su without a password. auth sufficient pam_wheel.so trust group=adm # Uncomment this if you want members of a specific group to not # be allowed to use su at all. auth required pam_wheel.so deny group=nosu # This allows root to su without passwords (normal operation) auth sufficient pam_rootok.so # Uncomment and edit /etc/security/time.conf if you need to set # time restrainst on su usage. # (Replaces the `PORTTIME_CHECKS_ENAB' option from login.defs # as well as /etc/porttime) # accountrequisite pam_time.so # The standard Unix authentication modules, used with # NIS (man nsswitch) as well as normal /etc/passwd and # /etc/shadow entries. @include common-auth @include common-account @include common-session # Sets up user limits, please uncomment and read /etc/security/limits.conf # to enable this functionality. # (Replaces the use of /etc/limits in old login) # sessionrequired pam_limits.so

Re: cdrecord won't work - kernel 2.6.10
2005/9/12, Erdi Balint [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Wang, Thanks for the support. Unfortunately, it did not work. Finally I could burn a cd with the dev=/dev/hdc setting but I could not read the freshly read cd after, the error message was 'Unable to identify CD-ROM format.' Which mode do you burn disks in? Raw96r? You can try cdrecord dev=ATA:1,0,0 -scanbus for me, I did not indicate any additional parameter when burning CD, just use ``tao'' mode as default. good luck!

Re: Pinnacle pctv stereo no sound
Hi, I'm using debian sarge with kernel 2.6.8. I have problem getting sound to work for my tv tuner which is Pinnacle Pctv stereo with saa7134 chipset. I have the internal audio connector connected to Aux in on my sound card. I can get the picture but there is no sound, just a background noise. When installing the modules I do this: #modporbe bttv card=1 #modprobe tuner type=5 #modprobe saa7134 Thanks in advance for your help. Have you had tvaudio module loaded? And try signal source TV(mono) rather than TV might help. I've never used this card, so can not give more info.
