The only thing I found about the IMSETTINGS_IGNORE_ME was: A parameter to hide Input Method from the inventory, but I believe that it's not the problem.I forgot to tell you that Fedora 11 did not install the immodules package by default, so try to install them. # yum install gtk2-immodules Then for precaution update your immodules list. *#gtk-query-immodules-2.0-32* Then edit your none.conf file again, setting cedilla input method GTK_IM_MODULE=gtk-im-cedilla. And finally edit the file /etc/gtk-2.0/i386-redhat-linux-gnu/gtk.immodules search for the line *cedilla Cedilla gtk20 /usr/share/locale az:ca:co:fr:gv:oct:sq:tr:wa* and add your keyboard. in my case: *cedilla Cedilla gtk20 /usr/share/locale az:ca:co:fr:gv:oct:sq:tr:wa:en* Reboot your system, and see your input method cat ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/interface/%gconf.xml Search for something like this: entry name=gtk-im-module mtime=1229379660 type=string stringvaluegtk-im-cedilla/stringvalue /entry Now I believe that you will be able to use cediila. Thanks for your detailed help, Rodrigo. For the record, I could fix it by just installing gtk2-immodules using yum and rebooting. As my ~/.bash_profile was containing: export GTK_IM_MODULE=cedilla (as it worked in F10 before my upgrade to F11), and it worked. I didn't need to do anything more. Since it's working fine I think I won't follow all the steps you described in your previous email, unless I want cedilla as default for every xorg user, I presume. My other problem is still there.. my keyboard repeat delay and rate settings are not taken into account after a graphical login, unless I open the keyboard properties dialog and click close. The correct settings are shown in gconf-editor and modifying values in gconf-editor does apply immediately. Any idea?

F11: keyboard issues after upgrade: GTK_IM_MODULE=cedilla and keyboard preferences
Hi folks, after upgrading from Fedora 10 to Fedora 11, I notice two keyboard-related issues within GNOME: 1) The GTK_IM_MODULE=cedilla set in ~/.bash_profile seems to be ignored now, GTK applications show a ć when I type a ç (us intl with dead keys keyboard layout). Works fine w/ Qt apps. Should I defined this GTK_IM_MODULE higher in the system config? 2) The keyboard preferences (repeat keys delay and speed) are not taken into account unless I open the Keyboard Preferences dialog and close it. I need to do that each time I re-login in GNOME. 1) and 2) were OK with Fedora 10 before I upgraded. Any hint?

Fedora 11: no display after init sequence
Hello there, after I upgraded from Fedora 10 to 11 using yum preupgrade (as proposed by the daily process that checks for upgrades in GNOME), display in X.org doesn't work anymore. My guess is that it's a video/display issue, directly or indirectly, because the system is responding, meaning I can login in gdm in blind mode using the keyboard (I got confirmation by reading /var/log/0-slave.log) but the display is not updated after the loading process with the Fedora logo. If I boot up in init 2 mode then switch to init 5, I get a blank screen with a still cursor in top/left corner. I tried booting with xdriver=vesa as kernel param, same problem. I changed my xorg.conf to use the vesa driver instead of the intel one, same problem, with a variant: the blue screen with Fedora logo shows corrupted. I tried both Option NoAccel True Option DRI False in xorg.conf (file attached), same problem. I tried `X -configure` then `X -config /root/xorg.conf.new`, same problem (file attached). When the display is not responding, I cannot switch back to a tty using ctrl+alt+Fn key combinations, meaning I have to reboot each time I want to try a different X.org config param. Nothing looked suspicious to my eyes in /var/log/messages or in /var/log/Xorg.0.log (attached). Hardware is a Dell Latitude E6500 with Intel chip and a WUXGA display (1920x1200). I also attached the output of `lspci -vv` and `lsmod|sort`. The system is up-to-date (yum), with correct Fedora 11 repositories shown then I run `yum repolist`. This is a production laptop and I critically need it to be usable quickly. I've made a complete backup of the system while it was still running Fedora 10. In last resort I can rollback to the backup, but well.. this is not my preferred option at all. Any help? What could I check or try?

Good. That means those packages passed the verification. The long(er) verification of all installed packages would be this: rpm -Va 21 | tee rpm-Va.txt rpm-Va.txt attached! :-) I've tried to reproduce your problem with up-to-date F10, but k3b imports flac and mp3 files just fine. File permission problems would lead to a different error message. What else could one check? For a .flac file that fails to import, does flac -t filename tell anything? (A similar check for mp3 files could be done with madplay, libmad's player). I wouldn't have bet a penny on this, since I am trying to burn an audio CD from .flac and .mp3 files that I've already burnt few weeks ago. Anyway I checked the .flac and .mp3 files to be sure, they report being OK. For the record, I tried de-installing k3b and reinstalling .rpm files using yum (from updates and rpmfusion repos).. this did fix the problem, I can now make audio CDs from .flac and .mp3 files again! Funny, isn't it? Thanks for your wise suggestions and help!, Michael.

This following post presents a tiny patch for 2.6.29 kernels so that VMWare 5.5 can be used (otherwise you have to use VMWare 6.x, meaning paying the upgrade price): http://www.insecure.ws/2009/04/21/vmware-specific-specific-55x-and-kernel-2629 For the moment I'm stuck w/ F10's 2.6.27 kernel, but might consider upgrading to F11 if its latest kernel is OK for VMWare 5.5 or eventually recompile the kernel (in F10 or F11).

NEdit in F10 loosing modifiers and dead keys
Hello folks, I notice that using nedit-5.5-20.fc10.i386 in my up-to-date Fedora 10, I often loose the ability to use modifiers (ctrl, alt, and thus, copy paste using the usual keys combinations) and dead keys (us_intl keyboard layout here, ' is a dead key to make single quotes as well as accented letters). The use of this editor in these conditions is pretty uncomfortable, and most of the time it doesn't even work better when I restart it. Any one who experience the same behaviour or has a tip?

F10: default fonts too big
Hello, I've just installed Fedora 10 on a i383 system with WUXGA screen running at 1920x1200. I notice that the default fonts in GNOME and other X11/Qt apps are way too big. To get font size that fits my needs, I have to set fonts height to 5-7, whereas usually I was more or less at 8-10 on my previous Fedora 8 (same screen). I could live with this, but there are apps that don't obey GNOME font settings, then I feel I'm not doing it the right way. I installed both 75dpi and 100dpi fonts, I feel it's related to the DPI, but I'm not mastering all this very well (euphemism). What could I do on a system-wide basis to get not-too-big fonts settings? I tried setting the Xft.dpi to 75 and restarted Xorg, but apparently it stays at 96 (see log excerpts below). Help is welcome! Here's a bit of information..

KDE apps will probably obey the Xft.dpi X resource, but only if they actually see it, and with all the changes to X I have no idea if it even pays attention to things like ~/.XDefaults any more. You may need to use xrdb to load it. Well, this really helped me. This is incredible how I could miss the DPI setting in the GNOME font settings page. Turned it to 96 and voila. I played w/ qtconfig-qt4 for the Qt4 apps. Will check if some other apps are still big-font-ed. Thanks a bunch, Tom.

F10: hal/fdi/policy fdi files not working?
Hello all, after I installed Fedora 10, I copied my HAL policy files (/etc/hal/fdi/policy/*.fdi) from my old Fedora 8 so that my external USB disks get mounted as there were previously. I restarted hald, but inserting disks don't mount them automatically. According to lshal, the keys defined in my .fdi files should match. I pruned /var/log/message for hal output but nothing appears there, thus I started hald manually with --verbose=yes --use-syslog, but even if hald activity is shown, it doesn't show any error or talk about .fdi files. Any hint? Did something change in the way hal can be used to automount devices since Fedora 8 or did I miss something?

Hm OK, I have an idea of what may have happened. Before closing the old instance of firefox, I asked for the bookmarks manager window, and it never showed up. Then I closed firefox and restarted it: see previous screenshot. I appears that the old instance of firefox has never been closed, and I've found a super-tiny window in a corner of my desktop: the bookmarks manager window has opened up in a strange way (a 2-pixel wide title bar only). Killed firefox, started it again, now things look normal. Maybe upgrading to 2.0.0.15 while an instance of firefox was running has been the issue? I just have to ask: is there some reason you aren't using Firefox 3? Yes.. I tried ffx3 from remi's repos, it works OK but most of the plugins I'm using w/ ffx2 are not available and that's a no-go. Rolled back to ffx2, noticed that some plugins' prefs got reset, tss.

Hello all, since the last yum-update I did (that brought up kernel and alsa ugrades), I notice that *some* .wav sounds are now playing quicker, maybe something like twice quicker. Those sounds are .wav files, played using aplay by some notification script. Not all sounds are impacted. pulse-audio has been deactivated here right after I've installed FC8 from scratch months ago.
