Was told to "change my system theme"

2019-02-04 Thread Dan Jacobson
On https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=914504
they tell me to "change my system theme".

So how shall I "change my system theme"?
And will it affect other things more that the white on black text?

Are they talking about picking another icewm theme?

beep works, speaker-test doesn't.

speaker-test doesn't make any sound.

how to move console up half a character?

2016-10-22 Thread Dan Jacobson
On the chvt 1..6 terminals there is a white line at the bottom of my
laptop's screen that I would like to avoid.

How can I move the whole console upwards half a character?

But then that would shove the top line halfway off the screen.
So I suppose I need to make the number of rows one less.

initramfs-tools 0.118 makes systems unbootable with 5 second message

2014-10-23 Thread Dan Jacobson
On all my systems, initramfs-tools 0.116 works fine,
installing 0.118 just gives some message about rebooting in 5 seconds that is 
not
enough time to read. I.e., the system becomes unbootable.

scim does not work in chromium, firefox, and midori

On one of my machines scim does not work in chromium, firefox, and
midori. Hitting CTRL+SPACE does nothing.

It works in abiword, xterm and emacs though.

Re: scim does not work in chromium, firefox, and midori

2014-09-25 Thread Dan Jacobson
How I fixed it: I noticed that all the packages with the problem
depended on libgtk2.0-0 whilst none of the ones without the problem did.
And indeed an aptitude reinstall libgtk2.0-0 fixed it!

how to tell what makes chromium abort 134?

How does one tell which package makes chromium abort with exit code 134?
Replace each package one by one with an older version until it works again?
Yes it happens for all users.

disable keyboard outside of X Windows too

2014-08-09 Thread Dan Jacobson
Gentlemen, I wish to disable my built-in keyboard which is inhabited by
a ghost occasionally typing bad things. I will instead use my USB
keyboard.

Of course in X windows, all that is needed is
$ xinput --disable 'AT Translated Set 2 keyboard'

The problem is I wish to disable the bad keyboard also in tty1 through
tty6, i.e., outside of X Windows too!

I found some things I could echo into:
$ (cd /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio0/  find * -type f -perm /u=w)
bind_mode
drvctl
extra
force_release
input/input0/power/control
input/input0/power/async
input/input0/power/autosuspend_delay_ms
input/input0/event0/power/control
input/input0/event0/power/async
input/input0/event0/power/autosuspend_delay_ms
input/input0/event0/uevent
input/input0/uevent
power/control
power/async
power/autosuspend_delay_ms
scroll
set
softraw
softrepeat
uevent

But looking in
/usr/share/doc/linux-doc-3.14/Documentation/ABI/testing/
doesn't reveal how to actually turn it off!
One might think that
echo 0  power/control
would do it but answer would be way off!

So how can I do it (and not zap the USB keyboard at the same time)?
