  [SOLVED] Key Binding
Posted by: Akinaro - 02-23-2015, 03:14 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (4)

Hi.

My backspace key on my keyboard is dead. Totally. I had problem with it before but after many quick fixes that I did to this key, now its dead.

Quote:RIP beloved backspace key



Before that, when it was still working I used xmodmap for binding other keys to different places.
But now, because its dead, I cant bind it to "delete" key(its near backspace and I dont use it anyway), because when you bind it, you need to press both keys to get their ID's...

So I'm screwed a bit... If you dont believe me, try not to use "backspace" for one day :]


Its damn hard to find keyboard for my netbook model, and those that I found have price made by some stoned junkies that have no idea what they selling, so I need to find way to bind backspace to different key on my keyboard.

Any idea how can I make it?
Maybe there is app/command that have universal ID's for every keys?

  [SOLVED] Signing PDF Document
Posted by: john9159 - 02-23-2015, 09:56 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (4)

I'm trying to impose a second signature from file onto a pdf document.
The first worked fine as Adobe allow this but the second required sending to a recipient for them to sign. No matter how we try, the second signature cannot be added.
I am now using GIMP Image Editor to do this and whilst it does work, the image cannot be scaled down to fit in the appropriate area, it always appears oversize and overlaps other areas of the form.
Has anyone any idea how to reduce the size of the image?
Thanks for your help.

The Abstract Wallpapers from the MATE 1.8 Desktop Environment

A small suggestion on what to do after downloading the images.
Since the images are semi transparent you can tweak the color or set the gradient.

Hello All,

As the subject indicates I am a newbie to Linux. I have tried a couple of other distros and must say LL is tops. Just love it and so easy to use.

  Swappiness
Posted by: bruno - 02-21-2015, 11:26 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (5)

Would those of us who use LL2.2 benefit at all from reducing the swappiness ?

I ask only because it was a recommended thing to do in ubuntu 14.04

  Printing Causes a Crash
Posted by: Yoru3 - 02-21-2015, 11:55 AM - Forum: Printing and Scanning - No Replies

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right place since it might be more of a bug type report, unless I've missed something very basic. Also I can't believe that it hasn't been reported before, but I'm blowed if I can see it mentioned.

Anyway, it's about the printer (presumably driver) crashing when you inadvertently try and print a file that does not have the correct permissions.

I was recently setting up a minidlna server on Linux Lite, and set about editing its configuration file. By default, this file is set to user and group minidlna, with read only for other users.

So I had no problem opening the file in leafpad. but problems began when I tried to print it. The first thing is the output got stuck in the spooler, so I had to delete the job. Then I got a message displayed top right saying “printer may not be connected”. Even after a system restart, the same message appeared, and no print functionality could be achieved. The only way to get the printer working again was to remove it, and add it back again, which was straightforward, but a somewhat extreme way to recover.

I'm using a networked Epson Stylus Photo PX710W setup in pass through mode. After re-adding the printer and doing a chmod 777 on the file all was well for printing and configuring the file. Incidentally, minidlna now works great, much less of a pain than mediatomb. But surely shouldn't there be something in the system as a precursor, that stops this printer crash occurring, and gives a warning message box, maybe a watchdog script somewhere.
