However, OP's issue is apparently with an external 3rd-party monitor. Take a look at xorg log, may indicate why driver choked with this monitor.

Hi, i am using midnight commander (mc) heavily in daily work. because of more screens at the pc, i would like to have the two panels (left / right) in different with, to use the available screen space more useful. (i would have each side of the midnight commander on one screen completely and would have the monitor frame between the 2 lines.) when i do this so, i have now on each monitor the same size of mc. is there a possibility to have one panel more with than the other? simoN -- www.becherer.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Jstar: how to get ctrl-left and ctrl-right keys working, solved.
by Carlos E. R. 21 Nov '19

21 Nov '19

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, It has been a long standing nuisance that ctrl-left and ctrl-right do not work in jstar. I got, by chance, a hint on nntp:alt.os.linux. There is this paragraph on the man page: «Unfortunately, there is no standard way to get the keysequence given by the terminal emulator when you hit Ctrl-Right Arrow. Instead you have to determine this sequence yourself and enter it directly in the joerc file. Some examples are given for Xterm and gnome-terminal. Hit ^Q Ctrl-Right Arrow within JOE to have the sequence shown on your screen. Note that Putty uses Esc Esc [ C which will not appear with ^Q Right Arrow (also Esc Esc is the set bookmark command, so you need to unbind it to do this in Putty).» - From there I got the sequences: ^right [1;5C ^left [1;5D Looking at both /etc/joe/jstarrc and /etc/joe/joerc (the mentioned paragraph in the man about Xterm is only in plain joe), I finally found how to do it. Locate in /etc/joe/jstarrc nextword ^F Goto next word ... prevword ^A Previous word and add: nextword ^[ [ 1 ; 5 C CER: Goto next word prevword ^[ [ 1 ; 5 D CER: Previous word It appears that the configuration file configures the entire keyboard of the editor. Everything. I don't know if my changes will work on all terminals. They work on xterm, xfce-terminal, lxterminal, gnome-terminal, and konsole, but not in console.

[opensuse] zypper dup 42.3 -> 15.0 loses all LibreOffice Templates/Settings, KDE Plastic/Keramik styles not available?
by David C. Rankin 20 Nov '19

20 Nov '19

All, After having done several full installs of 15.0 and 15.1 with no notable issues, I did my first zypper dup --downloadinadvance after having done a zypper clean and zypper ref. The zypper dup went well (even with the NVidia drivers and cinelerra repos). However, I have two frustrating problems that are not present in the fresh installs of 15.0 and 15.1. First with LibreOffice, all templates, settings and dictionaries are gone. Nowhere to be found in the menus. Next, I use Keramik as the KDE3 style (in both 15.0 and 15.1 fresh installs), but after a zypper dup, the Plastik and Keramik styles do not show in the menus. The versions of the packages are exactly the same between the working 15.0 fresh install box and this box. The only styles shown available are CDE, Windows 95, Platinum and SGI (yuk). None of the core KDE widget styles are listed in Appearance->Style. kdeglobals still has my widgetStyle=keramik, but it displays as CDE (first in shown list I guess) The library files are all there: $ find . -type f -name "*keramik*" ./share/apps/kwin/keramik.desktop ./share/apps/kstyle/themes/keramik.themerc ./share/doc/HTML/en/krec/krec-keramik.png ./lib64/kde3/kwin3_keramik.so ./lib64/kde3/kwin_keramik_config.so ./lib64/kde3/kwin3_keramik.la ./lib64/kde3/kwin_keramik_config.la ./lib64/kde3/plugins/styles/keramik.so ./lib64/kde3/plugins/styles/keramik.la ./lib64/kde3/kstyle_keramik_config.so ./lib64/kde3/kstyle_keramik_config.la I have run kbuildsycoca --noincremental to eliminate a cache issue and restarted the desktop, no joy.... So where has my LibreOffice config gone and where have the default styles gone? Any thoughts/guesses? -- David C.

[opensuse] Baloo bug
by James Knott 20 Nov '19

20 Nov '19

On 15.1/KDE, there has long been a bug where on desktop startup, I get an error "Baloo File Indexing Daemon closed unexpectedly". I recall seeing some discussion about that here and it was being worked on. This "feature" has now appeared on a system running 15.0. Is there anything happening with this? I don't see any mention about this issue in bugzilla. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner(a)opensuse.org
