  • Ubuntu odd mouse and keyboard behavior when window gains inner focus

    - by Scott
    This morning on my Ubuntu 10.10 system when I open a window - for example, system-preferences-about me, if I click in to a field such as "work email", I can no longer close the window with the mouse! Clicking the X on the window will not work. Also, I loose the ability to click on anything else - clicking on the desktop, icons, menus, workspaces, etc. do not work. Even the effect when you hover over a folder on the desktop and that folder highlights - that stops until the window is closed. If I open this same screen but do not click in to a field, everything is fine - I can close the window with the X and everything else works fine. Same thing happens with several other windows I tried. Even calculator - I can open it, everything is fine until I click on a button in the calculator - then no ability to click on anything else. Have to Alt-F4 to close the window. The system is only about a week old from a fresh install (64 bit ubuntu - quad core amd machine). I uninstalled wine, turned off remote desktop/disabled in startup, also in startup disabled visual assistance, bluetooth, dropbox, klipper. Reboot, no difference. The only other thing non-standard I see in startup is nvidia. Using a logitec usb mouse, saitek usb keyboard. Was working fine yesterday. I can not think of anything I did / installed yesterday. I switched themse, then went to update manager and saw two x server / x org related updates and installed them, reboot and NOW IT IS FINE! However, then I re-enabled dropbox, klipper and remote desktop rebooted and the problem is back. Again I disabled and rebooted. Problem is still there!! So somehow I fixed it at least for a few minutes, but now it is back and I am out of ideas.

  • Selecting and inserting text at cursor location in textfield with JS/jQuery

    - by IceCreamYou
    Hello. I have developed a system in PHP which processes #hashtags like on Twitter. Now I'm trying to build a system that will suggest tags as I type. When a user starts writing a tag, a drop-down list should appear beneath the textarea with other tags that begin with the same string. Right now, I have it working where if a user types the hash key (#) the list will show up with the most popular #hashtags. When a tag is clicked, it is inserted at the end of the text in the textarea. I need the tag to be inserted at the cursor location instead. Here's my code; it operates on a textarea with class "facebook_status_text" and a div with class "fbssts_floating_suggestions" that contains an unordered list of links. (Also note that the syntax [#my tag] is used to handle tags with spaces.) maxlength = 140; var dest = $('.facebook_status_text:first'); var fbssts_box = $('.fbssts_floating_suggestions'); var fbssts_box_orig = fbssts_box.html(); dest.keyup(function(fbss_key) { if (fbss_key.which == 51) { fbssts_box.html(fbssts_box_orig); $('.fbssts_floating_suggestions .fbssts_suggestions a').click(function() { var tag = $(this).html(); //This part is not well-optimized. if (tag.match(/W/)) { tag = '[#'+ tag +']'; } else { tag = '#'+ tag; } var orig = dest.val(); orig = orig.substring(0, orig.length - 1); var last = orig.substring(orig.length - 1); if (last == '[') { orig = orig.substring(0, orig.length - 1); } //End of particularly poorly optimized code. dest.val(orig + tag); fbssts_box.hide(); dest.focus(); return false; }); fbssts_box.show(); fbssts_box.css('left', dest.offset().left); fbssts_box.css('top', dest.offset().top + dest.outerHeight() + 1); } else if (fbss_key.which != 16) { fbssts_box.hide(); } }); dest.blur(function() { var t = setTimeout(function() { fbssts_box.hide(); }, 250); }); When the user types, I also need get the 100 characters in the textarea before the cursor, and pass it (presumably via POST) to /fbssts/load/tags. The PHP back-end will process this, figure out what tags to suggest, and print the relevant HTML. Then I need to load that HTML into the .fbssts_floating_suggestions div at the cursor location. Ideally, I'd like to be able to do this: var newSuggestions = load('/fbssts/load/tags', {text: dest.getTextBeforeCursor()}); fbssts_box.html(fbssts_box_orig); $('.fbssts_floating_suggestions .fbssts_suggestions a').click(function() { var tag = $(this).html(); if (tag.match(/W/)) { tag = tag +']'; } dest.insertAtCursor(tag); fbssts_box.hide(); dest.focus(); return false; }); And here's the regex I'm using to identify tags (and @mentions) in the PHP back-end, FWIW. %(\A(#|@)(\w|(\p{L}\p{M}?))+\b)|((?<=\s)(#|@)(\w|(\p{L}\p{M}?))+\b)|(\[(#|@).+?\])%u Right now, my main hold-up is dealing with the cursor location. I've researched for the last two hours, and just ended up more confused. I would prefer a jQuery solution, but beggars can't be choosers. Thanks!

  • Modify or disable Windows 8 swipe gestures on touchpad / laptop

    - by Matsemann
    I have an ASUS G75VW laptop with a Synaptic touchpad (/trackpad). When I move my finger from one edge towards the middle (the swipe), Windows 8 will bring up different stuff. This is a problem because the area where I can actually move the mouse with my finger is too small (or, I mostly use the top left of the touchpad). So I often end up doing a swipe and bringing up some menu, or to do the swipe so slow that no menu is appearing but the mouse pointer is also not moving when I move my finger. Quite annoying. When swiping from left edge it earlier swapped apps like crazy. I disabled that, so now it only brings up the same menu as pressing win+tab (or some times the charms bar, I never know which). I could change that by: Win+I - Change PC settings - General - When I swipe from the left edge, switch directly to my most recent app I've tried Mouse settings in Control Panel, driver settings for my touchpad and searching for swipe and gestures on my computer (which was what led me to the setting above) with no luck. How can I disable the swipe gestures, or change what they do? Thanks.

  • How can I assign actions to all my mouse buttons?

    - by Torben Gundtofte-Bruun
    I have a mouse with lots of buttons, but it's not a mainstream make like Logitech. For Windows, I have a driver that lets me assign actions like close-window (Ctrl+W) or next-tab (Ctrl+Tab), but I don't have a Linux driver. Since Linux is so flexible, I thought perhaps there is a general way to do this, regardless of brand? Update: Based on input from Cyrex, I installed and ran sudo apt-get install btnx which found several but not all mouse buttons. Found: left, right, wheel, wheelclick, thumb fwd, thumb back. Not found: wheel left, wheel right, thumb middle button. Vendor ID is 0x04d9, Model ID is 0xa015. Update 2: In SystemPrefsMouse there's a lightbulb icon for testing double-click speed. Every working button can turn the bulb on&off, but the missing buttons can't. It would seem that Ubuntu isn't aware of these buttons and thus doesn't register their clicks. I guess I need to hunt for a driver, though a mainstream mouse is probably the easier way.

  • Improve mouse movement in First person game

    - by brainydexter
    In my current FPS game, I have the mouse setup in a way, that it always forces the position of the mouse to be centered at the screen. This gets the job done, but also gets very annoying, since the mouse is "fixed" at the center of the screen. Here is what I am doing: get mouse current position find offset from center of the screen set mouse current position to center of the screen apply difference to m_pTransformation (transformation matrix of the player) Is there a better way to deal with this ?

  • My acer aspire 5532 laptop mouse

    - by Karen Wells
    The mouse pad on my laptop has stopped working. It has not been turned off as we already checked. The computer tech stated it was a windows 7 problem. The laptop is only 3 months old. They suggested that I try to run a recovery. However, I put the disk in and nothing happens. How can this problem be fixed?

  • Mouse gestures for 64-bit Windows?

    - by musicfreak
    Is there an application that can give me mouse gestures across all programs on Windows 7? I'm aware of StrokeIt, but it seems to have some nasty bugs on 64-bit versions of Windows. (Or maybe it's just mine, I don't know, but it crashed a lot last time I used it.)

  • Synergy reports connected but mouse doesn't hop between screens

    - by tor
    I'm using synergy between two windows computers (Windows 7 32-bit, acting as the server part, and Windows XP 32-bit, as a client). I'm running the server part as admin, as suggested in some posts when running synergy in Vista/7, and I think it's properly configured in the server part: It reports on both sides that the connection has succesfully been established, but there's no way to move the mouse from one screen to the other (neither from server2client, nor client2server). Any ideas?

  • Mac OS X 10.6.3 update freezes mouse

    - by Kriem
    Ever since I updated my early 2010 MacBook Pro 13" with the 10.6.3 update, the mouse pointer freezes for 5 to 10 seconds, every now and then. The keyboard is next to unresponsive when this happens. Are there more people having the same problem? Is this a known bug? Is there a solution?

  • Mouse in screen(1) on the Linux console?

    - by SamB
    How can I use the mouse in GNU screen on the Linux console? I would expect this to have to go via gpm, but that doesn't seem to happen by default, even if the curses library does link to libgpm. (This may be related to screen's termcap heritage...)

  • Increase mouse sensitivity further

    - by Albin
    Hi I need help on how to increase the mouse sensitivity even further, because I maxed it out using the settings interface, and it's not enough . (I've tried two diffrent mouses that both are really good in windows so that shouldn't be the problem...) So what solution is there to this problem? (Using ubuntu and I've tried in both 9.10 and 10.4)
