I would say it's X.org. So many things not functioning any more... Outputting of the edit buffer does not happen when switching the text mode consoles. > FreeBSD 7.x with Xorg. FreeBSD 7 Stable, xorg-7.3_1. By the way, could you try another thing I find problematic since using X.org? Setting: Switch on Num Lock first. Open an X terminal. Have an image file available, and xzgv. Then run "xzgv -tz " from within the terminal. When you quit xzgv with the 'q' key, Num Lock LED will go off, but Num Lock mode will still be on. Press Num Lock key twice, LED is there again. Now run xmms by typing "xmms", and quit it. Same thing. And now, run "gv" and quit it. Now Num Lock keeps on! Same with xpdf. Summary: Num Lock goes off: xzgv, xmms, gnp Num Lock keeps on: gv, xpdf, xvidtune, avidemux2, gmplayer Any idea what this strange behaviour could come from? -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Ha! Seems that I'm not alone with this! :-) On Thu, 28 Aug 2008 07:11:23 -0700 (PDT), Christopher Joyner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > When I switch from my Xorg running KDE, for some reason it > pushes a string as keypresses to the KDE.

I have a similar problem: Whenever I return to X, coming from a text mode console, the content of the edit buffer (select with mouse, output with middle button) gets output to the window that has the focus at this moment (focus on mouse, not on click). In Opera, the right-click mouse menu is shown. In an X terminal, the text is passed to the shell - and executed, if it contains a line break (usually if multiline text was in the buffer). > Here is my setup! > On tty3 is my Xorg KDE desktop.

Try to reproduce this, maybe we're encountering the same problem: Select some text with the mouse, open an editor or X terminal and place the mouse into it (or assert that it has focus according to your focus model). Then, switch Ctrl+Alt+PF8, and return to X with Ctrl+Alt+PF3. Is the text you had selected now in the X terminal or the editor? If not, don't mind my reply. > So I decided to put up a blank text pad in kedit to see what happens. > What I get is a url string is pushed to the pad. > I believe this happens when coming back to the Desktop KDE. If it's the same problem that I have, it's generic to X.org, because I'm using WindowMaker, not KDE, and I've tried XFCE 3 and 4, too, with the same problem. It seems that the URI that is passed to Konqueror is in the edit butter. Try to press the middle mouse button within an editor. Is the URI output to the editor as it would be to Konqueror? -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Problem in FreeBSD 7.x, in Xorg switching consoles.
When I switch from my Xorg running KDE, for some reason it pushes a string as keypresses to the KDE. I do not know if it's on return, or on exit. Here is my setup! On tty3 is my Xorg KDE desktop. On tty8 is a getty login. I use alt+ctrl+f8 to enter the login screen on tty8. I then switch back by using alt+ctrl+f3, and enter the KDE desktop. But then for some reason something crazy happens. If i was using the konqueror web browser, the address would get replaced and it would go to a bogus website. So I decided to put up a blank text pad in kedit to see what happens. What I get is a url string is pushed to the pad. I believe this happens when coming back to the Desktop KDE. In Love in Jesus Christ, Or Lord and Savior.
