Bug#679613: xorg: Virtual mouse (shift+numlock) stops working after upgrading from squeeze to wheezy
Hello, Le 30/06/2012 09:40, HDU a écrit : Recently I upgrade my system to wheezy, and Shift + NumLock no longer activates the virtual mouse (move cursor and click with the numeric keypad). Google does not help me on this one. By googling xorg shift numlock (instead of wheezy xorg virtual mouse, which gave me no leads), I found a solution to my problem. And I learned that you english speakers call it mouse keys, and not virtual mouse. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=904880 Freedesktop decide to remove this function by default. I was not warned by Debconf. And effectively, KDE reactivated it. BTW, I don't understand why it work in kdm and sawfish for some users of the Debian User French ML. To reactivate it, I put this in xorg.conf: Section InputClass Identifier Keyboard Defaults MatchIsKeyboard yes Option XkbLayout fr Option XkbVariant bepo7 Option XkbOptions keypad:pointerkeys,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp EndSection I really struggled with this problem. I think Debconf should warn the user, as for the removal of Ctrl+Alt+Backspace shortcut. Maybe this bug sould be forwarded to the package xkb-data, since it seems contain the file in question: I think the file /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pc is missing a piece. Changing the following line: key NMLK { [ Num_Lock ] }; back to as it was in version 2.0.1: key NMLK { [ Num_Lock, Pointer_EnableKeys ] }; brings back the mousekeys functionality for me. But I don't know how to redirect a bug, and if I'm allowed to do so. Thank for your attention, HDU. -- Encryption is not magic pixie dust to sprinkle on things to make them more secure. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#529371: Regression: compiz-manager wrapper script modifies special ENV environment variable
Package: compiz-core Version: 0.8.2-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Version 0.8.2-1 reverted the fix for bug #484225. See http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/app/compiz.git;a=commitdiff;h=c3ee16e2cd783829f0b0b104bc32430cf7da51c5 for the offending commitdiff. Attached is a patch to fix this regression.

Re: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
General info Subscription/unsubscription/info requests should always be sent to the -request address of a mailing list. If a mailing list is called for example [EMAIL PROTECTED], then the -request address can be inferred from this to be: [EMAIL PROTECTED]. To subscribe to a mailing list, simply send a message with the word subscribe in the Subject: field to the -request address of that list. To unsubscribe from a mailing list, simply send a message with the word (you guessed it :-) unsubscribe in the Subject: field to the -request address of that list. In the event of an address change, it would probably be the wisest to first send an unsubscribe for the old address (this can be done from the new address), and then a new subscribe to the new address (the order is important). Most (un)subscription requests are processed automatically without human intervention. Do not send multiple (un)subscription or info requests in one mail. Only one will be processed per mail. NOTE: The -request server usually does quite a good job in discriminating between (un)subscribe requests and messages intended for the maintainer. If you'd like to make sure a human reads your message, make it look like a reply (i.e. the first word in the Subject: field should be Re:, without the quotes of course); the -request server does not react to replies. The archive server -- Every submission sent to this list is archived. The size of the archive depends on the limits set by the list maintainer (it is very well possible that only, say, the last two mails sent to the list are still archived, the rest might have expired). You can look at the header of every mail coming from this list to see under what name it has been archived. The X-Mailing-List: field contains the mailaddress of the list and the file in which this submission was archived. If you want to access this archive, you have to send mails to the -request address with the word archive as the first word of your Subject:. To get you started try sending a mail to the -request address with the following: Subject: archive help The listmaster -- To reach a human being answering your mail you may contact the address [EMAIL PROTECTED] We will process your request as soon as we can.

scaled fonts
hi, Some time before i post a mail about ugly fonts im my debian X. Some nice guy, answer about unscaled or noscaled after the font path in xfs config. The point is than some tests later i found than the problem is specific to Times fons. Utopia and Courier works fine. So i think the problem is with font licences. My question is: im in the right path, and if in this case there is some standard workaround? thanx.

Sorry post this here, but im lost. Im trying install Kde2.0... I hava all .deb files, but that dont work with dselect, because of missing Packages.gz file list. So there is some tool to gerate that? Kde site say dpkg -i wanted package, but there is some tens of files, and i would like take advantage of task-kde2 deb file. thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
