guest3456789Hey all. I have xubuntu installed in my desktop and whenever I get to runlevel 4 my mouse and keyboard stop responding. Te keyboard works fine in runlevel 3. Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this?19:33
geniiRunlevels 3,4, and 5 are identical in Debian/Ubuntu19:33
geniiUnless you've been doing something something unusual with your rc.d files or so19:34
guest3456789I mean whenever I enter an x-session if that is the correct term for it19:35
geniiSo multiuser19:36
geniiSounds more like some issue with HID driver19:40
guest3456789Okay, I boot into multi-user and everything works. I start X and  I can not use any inputs19:41
geniiIf your machine has both USB3 and USB2 ports, check to see you are putting the keyboard and mouse into USB2 ports19:42
xubuntu72wHi there guys! Is anyone here good with xbindkeys?19:42
genii( and eliminate any hub you have in between, if there is one )19:43
guest3456789It does come with both types, but neither seem to work19:43
geniiguest3456789: Do you know the motherboard  (if desktop) or model ( if laptop)19:48
genii( could be USB chipset driver, expecially if NVidia chipset)19:48
cousteauHi!19:49
xubuntu72wYou see. I did rebind my right-click to a keyboard key, and it won't trigger if I'm holding left-click at the same time.19:49
cousteauXubuntu 18.04.  When I lock the laptop, music stops playing.  I added myself to group audio (as some random post on Google suggested), as well as video (just in case), but nothing.19:50
cousteauWhen I unlock, playback continues where I left it.19:50
cousteau(hm, wonder if the program I'm using also affects this)19:50
cousteauneither parole nor VLC allow playback while locked; probably not a laptop issue19:52
cousteau*probably not a player issue19:52
cousteauxubuntu72w, maybe you have mapped "press left and right click simultaneously" to emulate a middle click?19:53
diogenes_cousteau, try xscreenssaver instead of light-locker.19:54
xubuntu72wcosteau I do not recall such thing. How do I check it please?19:54
cousteaudiogenes_, uh... how do I know which I have?19:54
diogenes_cousteau, session and startup > application autostart19:55
cousteauxubuntu72w, honestly I have no idea how to check that.  Can you open a website or something and left+right-click to see what happens?19:55
cousteauOr map middle-click to another key?19:55
cousteaujust to check that's the problem19:56
cousteauif it is, and you don't find the option to fix that in Mouse and Touchpad, then I guess some commands could fix that19:56
xubuntu72wRight now Middle-Click = K and Right-Click to L19:57
xubuntu72wif left + right = middle it would press K.19:57
cousteauand if you middle click you see a K, and if you right click you see an L, and if you simultaneously left and right click?19:57
cousteauand it doesn't?19:58
xubuntu72wIf I try to right-click while holding left-click, right-click works normally instead of pressing L.19:58
xubuntu72wThat's the issue.19:58
cousteauhuh19:58
xubuntu72wAt least it is what I'm finding out.19:58
cousteauwhich app are you using?  Maybe it doesn't support that feature19:58
xubuntu72wxbindkeys.19:59
cousteauat first glance, it seems that that program lets you specify stuff like "Control + b:3" doing some action20:02
cousteauwell, I suspect that "Control + b:1 + b:3" is being interpreted as a different command20:02
xubuntu72wYeah, that's the spirit of it.20:02
cousteauI would suggest you to try mapping that to another key as well20:02
xubuntu72wIt has a file that you can load up on startup.20:03
cousteaubut then if you press b:3 and THEN b:1 it'll also press L and you don't want that20:03
xubuntu72w"xdotool key 'k'"       b:2"xdotool key 'l'"       b:320:03
xubuntu72wThis is how it is set.20:03
cousteauthe thing is, that program also allows you to specify combinations20:04
cousteaulike, control + b:320:05
cousteau(I included "control" in my previous example by mistake btw)20:05
cousteauso I suspect that you can also map it so that b:1 + b:3 does something20:05
xubuntu72wI see.20:06
xubuntu72wBut no, there's nothing else on the file.20:06
cousteaufor example, try mapping b:1+b:3 to xdotool key 'j'20:06
cousteauthen open a mousepad and start right-clicking, middle-clicking, left-right-clicking, etc20:07
cousteauI suspect left-right will type a J20:07
cousteaubecause it is capturing right click and left+right click as two different types of event20:07
cousteaumaybe you need to tell it somehow that you want ANY right-click to press L, not just a specific combination of it with other keys/buttons20:08
xubuntu72wIt does nothing, it types nothing20:09
xubuntu72wInteresting enough, I can still type L if I right click while holding middle-click.20:09
cousteaudiogenes_, ok so light-locker is indeed running, and after staring at the app list you suggested I figured out which was the entry related to it, because it uses descriptions instead of command names20:10
cousteauand I don't seem to have xscreensaver installed... is there a UI option to select the screensaver, or do I just install xscreensaver manually and select it?20:11
cousteau(feels a bit dirty, specially since the "elegant" way would be to set xscreensaver as the default screensaver for all users... or at least not to interfere with the currently installed one)20:12
cousteau(although I'm the only user here)20:12
cousteau_ok, re-joining from irssi since I guess I'll be closing and opening session several times20:15
cousteauI just realized diogenes just left right before I asked :(20:16
cousteau_ok well, diogenes_'s trick totally worked20:24
cousteau_I don't know if I still need to be in the audio and video groups20:24
Ravi28Installed ubuntu 19.10.1 on Raspi Pi 4, and then xubuntu-desktop.  For some reason gdm.service refuses to run. I am having to use lightdm. Any reason why it can not run? Thanks.21:33
Fernando-Basso[mhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/203160/Tomb_Raider/21:34
Fernando-Basso[mFree (don't know for how long).21:34
Fernando-Basso[mPS: Runs natively on Linux.21:34
brainwashRavi28: check the logs21:36
Ravi28Which logs to check? [Thanks in advance]21:37
brainwashthe systemd journal21:37
brainwashjournalctl -u gdm.service21:37
cousteauFernando-Basso[m, why do you do this to me just two days after I installed steam :'(21:38
Ravi28@brainwash : Thanks. Will check21:38
Fernando-Basso[mcousteau: Well, it runs on Linux. I couldn't refrain myself from sharing!21:38
brainwashRavi28: or, systemctl status gdm.service  for a the last few log messages21:39
Fernando-Basso[mThe other two (Rise and Shadow of Tomb Raider) also run on Linux (NATIVELY).21:39
Unit193FWIW, Xubuntu uses lightdm rather than GDM, so that sounds fine. :321:58
cousteauFernando-Basso[m, heh22:18
cousteausigh, ok here it goes22:19
cousteauoh and I can probably borrow my flatmate's switch controller22:19
cousteau(which for some reason only works via Bluetooth, not via USB)22:19
cousteau...damn, 10 GB??22:23
cousteauwell I guess I can uninstall it later22:23
cousteauit's going to my 1TB HDD anyway22:23
