mouse cursor weirdness
Fedora 12, fluxbox (fluxbox-1.1.1-5.fc12.x86_64). Keyboard multimedia buttons (XF86AudioNext, XF86AudioPrev, XF86AudioPlay) are bound to rhythmbox-client. When pressing the button the mouse cursor gets thrown in upper-left corner of the screen. It is quite annoying, I must say. Dont remember such thing on F9 (my previous one). Any suggestions whom to blame (fluxbox, xorg, evdev)? -- regards, Oleksandr Korneta I'm running F12 x86_64 and F10 on x86_64 hardware, should this matter. /The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from./ -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

In fact I did look into rpm and saw Google* stuff, but did not see any interface to link to calendars, and my old calendars (I'm using my old home directory) was disabled. This is what confused me.

Turns out, I had my old provider for google extension installed and the new installation from repository did not update it (which is obvious, since the old one was installed in user space ~/.mozilla). Thus I had the provider installed, but it was not functional.

digikam messes up xv video output
hello, I am under fluxbox on Fedora 10 i386. After I run digikam the hue of my xv video driver gets messed up. In order to understand what I mean look at the screenshots of mplayer with vo=xv in ~/mplayer/config before http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/3408/screenshotregion2009070.png and after I ran digikam http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/3408/screenshotregion2009070.png if I switch to X11 or gl video output -- everything is fine, the colors are not distorted. I don't run digikam too often, therefore have no idea when it started. Also I didn't find anything related in digikam's settings (display color management is disabled). So how do I fix this weirdness? if it matters, here is the se of related (i think) packages installed on my system: $ rpm -qa digikam* digikam-0.10.0-1.fc10.i386 digikam-libs-0.10.0-1.fc10.i386 $ rpm -qa qt* qt3-config-3.3.8b-17.fc10.i386 qt-devel-4.5.1-13.fc10.i386 qtpfsgui-1.9.2-2.fc10.i386 qt3-devel-3.3.8b-17.fc10.i386 qt-4.5.1-13.fc10.i386 qt3-3.3.8b-17.fc10.i386 qt-mysql-4.5.1-13.fc10.i386 qt-x11-4.5.1-13.fc10.i386 $ rpm -qa kde* kde-filesystem-4-23.fc10.noarch kdeedu-marble-4.2.4-1.fc10.i386 kde-settings-4.1-6.20090206svn.fc10.noarch kdelibs-common-4.2.4-2.fc10.i386 kdepimlibs-akonadi-4.2.4-1.fc10.i386 kdebase-workspace-4.2.4-3.fc10.i386 kdebindings-dcopperl-3.5.10-1.fc8.i386 kdegraphics-libs-4.2.4-1.fc10.i386 kdebase-4.2.4-2.fc10.i386 kdelibs3-3.5.10-3.fc10.i386 kdelibs-4.2.4-2.fc10.i386 kdebase-workspace-libs-4.2.4-3.fc10.i386 kdewebdev-libs-3.5.10-1.fc10.i386 kdebase-runtime-libs-4.2.4-2.fc10.i386 kde-settings-kdm-4.1-6.20090206svn.fc10.noarch kdepimlibs-4.2.4-1.fc10.i386 kdemultimedia-libs-4.2.4-1.fc10.i386 kdebase-libs-4.2.4-2.fc10.i386 kdebase-runtime-4.2.4-2.fc10.i386 thank you in advance -- regards, Oleksandr Korneta I'm running F9 x86_64 and F10 i386 on x86_64 hardware, should this matter. /The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from./ -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

configure phonon with no kde
Fedora 10 i386. I'm playing with minitube (http://flavio.tordini.org/minitube). I have no kde installed and this is the only application for which I had to install phonon (along with phonon-backend-xine and phonon-backend-gstreamer). qtconfig-qt4 says that phonon is not available, but the minitube got sound already, so all I need works. However, minitube blocks the sound output while running, which makes me think that audio sink is set to OSS.

There's a temporary patch turning off that improvement, but you need to recompile the kernel module and no permanent solution exists so far. -- regards, Oleksandr Korneta I'm running F9 x86_64 and F10 i386 on x86_64 hardware, should this matter. /The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from./ -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
multimedia keys, F10
hello, can anyone help me to make my multimedia keyboard work under F10? I have a Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 6000 v2 here (http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Wireless-Laser-Desktop-69A-1/dp/B000H14IDC/ref=cm_cmu_pg_i) with a standard set of multimedia keys for audioplayer, volume control, some application quick starters and a buttons numbered 1 to 5 plus a star button (have no idea what are these for). They used to work all the way through fedora 4 to 8. And with F8, after one of the updates they just stopped working. I mean, I had the keycodes mapped to buttons in my ~/.Xmodmap keycode 162 = XF86AudioPlay keycode 144 = XF86AudioPrev keycode 153 = XF86AudioNext keycode 160 = XF86AudioMute keycode 174 = XF86AudioLowerVolume keycode 176 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume keycode 233 = XF86Forward keycode 234 = XF86Back keycode 161 = XF86Calculator keycode 190 = XF86Messenger Now these buttons just don't produce any keycodes whatsoever. Instead the other set of buttons (those with numbers), which never worked, started to produce keycodes from 192 to 196. So all this was on F8. Thus I've updated to F10, really hoping that those keys will just work, but nothing have changed. Any suggestions how to make my multimedia keys work again are appreciated -- regards, Oleksandr Korneta I'm running F9 x86_64 and F10 i386 on x86_64 hardware, should this matter. /The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from./ -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

multimedia keys stopped working
hello, I've rebooted my f8 desktop today (which I do rather rarely) and discovered that my multimedia keys suddenly stopped working. Since I have everything configured in ~/.Xmodmap I decided to just rerun xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap, but it did not help. I launched xev and was surprised to find that the multimedia keys which I've been using for at least 2 years now produce no keycodes whatsoever. Instead, the keys not detectable before (a row of 6 keys numbered from 1 to 5 plus a star, presumably browser bookmarks) produce the keycodes 183, 184, 93, 131, 247 which are unknown to me. my keyboard is Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 6000 v2 (http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Wireless-Laser-Desktop-69A-1/dp/B000H14IDC/ref=cm_cmu_pg_i) and I would be very happy if someone could tell me what package I have to remove in order to bring things back to normal. the only relevant thing updated recently, which I see from rpm -qa --last is the kernel update to kernel-2.6.26.5-28.fc8 kernel-headers-2.6.26.5-28.fc8 kernel-devel-2.6.26.5-28.fc8 thank you in advance -- regards, Oleksandr Korneta I'm running F9 x86_64 and F8 i386 on x86_64 hardware, should this matter. /The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from./ -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

It may be that I cannot solve your problem, however would you tell me what xscreensaver -verbose say (after once you stop xscreensaver by xscreensaver-command -exit)? here you are: xscreensaver 5.06, copyright (c) 1991-2008 by Jamie Zawinski [EMAIL PROTECTED]. xscreensaver: 08:46:46: running as sashko/users (501/100) xscreensaver: 08:46:46: in process 9767. xscreensaver: 08:46:46: running on display :0.0 xscreensaver: 08:46:46: vendor is The X.Org Foundation, 1030. xscreensaver: 08:46:46: useful extensions: xscreensaver: 08:46:46: MIT Screen-Saver (disabled at compile time) xscreensaver: 08:46:46: Shared Memory xscreensaver: 08:46:46: Double-Buffering xscreensaver: 08:46:46: Power Management xscreensaver: 08:46:46: GLX xscreensaver: 08:46:46: XF86 Video-Mode xscreensaver: 08:46:46: Xinerama xscreensaver: 08:46:46: Resize-and-Rotate xscreensaver: 08:46:46: screen 0 non-colormapped depths: 0 24. xscreensaver: 08:46:46: screens in use: 1 xscreensaver: 08:46:46:0/0: 2480x1050+0+0 (default) xscreensaver: 08:46:46: selecting RANDR events xscreensaver: 08:46:46: consulting /proc/interrupts for keyboard activity. xscreensaver: 08:46:46: 0: visual 0x21 (TrueColor, depth: 24, cmap: default) xscreensaver: 08:46:46: 0: saver window is 0x81. xscreensaver: 08:46:46: selecting events on extant windows... done. xscreensaver: 08:46:46: awaiting idleness.
