[Desktop-packages] [Bug 92652] Re: Please add Microsoft compatible keyboard layout for Brazil

2016-02-27 Thread Marco Paganini 
I still get many people asking me how to fix this behavior in Linux.
Since this bug is now nine years old and there seems to be no interest
in providing a "proper" fix, I've created a small shell script that
should configure your system to generate a cedilla c on '+c:

Feel free to use it in any way you see fit.

Title:
  Please add Microsoft compatible keyboard layout for Brazil

Status in Linux Mint:

Status in xkeyboard-config:
  Confirmed
Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Please add a Microsoft compatible keyboard layout for Brazil, to make
  it easier for Users to switch from Windows to Linux without having to
  learn a new keyboard layout.

  The layout should be based on US-International, but with the following 
modifications:
   * The apostrophe key should map to 'dead-cedilla'
- ç -> ' + c
- Ç -> ' + C

  
  Original bug report:

  Ubuntu, by default has no C-Cedil present in the Keyboard
  configuration. The Us-International style creates a "Ć" and "ć"
  instead of C-cedil "ç".

  In order to fix this, a user must:
  1.Edit the file: /usr/share/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose
  2.Replace the occurences of the ć with ç, for both lower and uppercase.
  3.Edit the file: /etc/gtk-2.0/i386-redhat-linux-gnu/gtk.immodules
  4.Find the line configuring "xim", and add the "en_US" and "en" locales 
there, like this:
     "/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0/immodules/im-xim.so"
     "xim" "X Input Method" "gtk20" "/usr/share/locale" "ko:ja:th:zh:en_US:en"

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1345217] Re: nvidia-304-update (video driver) got uninstalled and is uninstallable after update to HWE-Stack5 (from Ubuntu LTS 12.04.4 to 12.04.5)

2014-09-20 Thread Marco Paganini 
This problem hit me hard today. Problems like this definitely diminish
the user trust in the Ubuntu upgrade process.

The solution was a painful manual rollback, using the output of "dpkg
--get-selections" from before the upgrade (this old habit has saved me
in more than one occasion). Getting my system back to an operational
state required considerable effort. Please give this problem a high
priority, as it's bound to affect a lot of people.

Title:
  nvidia-304-update (video driver) got uninstalled and is uninstallable
  after update to HWE-Stack5 (from Ubuntu LTS 12.04.4 to 12.04.5)

Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers-304-updates” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I didn't take notes, so I can't give the exact error messages. My
  working video-driver (nvidia-304-updates) was uninstalled during the
  installation of the last HWE-Stack. Afterwards, with the new Kernel
  (3.13) I had only 1024-resolution. Nouveau driver was installed, but
  without 3d-Support. I tried to reinstall nvidia-304 (or any other
  nvidia-driver) but it showed me broken dependencies. nvidia-304 wants
  to install a program (something with ...abi ) in Version 11 to 14, but
  the last xserver-xorg-package containing this program was the raring-
  Version, so I couldn't install it. Had to revert to the last HWE-
  Stack.
