antiX-forum

I've been setting Antix up on an old laptop for a client. Two problems that I can't figure out.

After the computer has been on for a while it enters suspend/hibernation, but will not return from that state. Is there any way I can disable those features?

Certain characters won't show up with Icelandic keyboard being used. All those characters require combination of AltGr and another button. Some of those characters are quite important, such as; @, \, [], {}, ~, €, µ.

For the keyboard, you may need to
#dpkg-reconfigure locales
and then set the keyboard.

If you try as user
setxkbmap is

does AltGR plus button get the characters now?

For the other problem you could edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to have these lines. (The last 2, if you choose 0 I guess it will not blank to black screen). Moving the mouse should get the desktop back if it bakens.

Section "ServerFlags"
Option "DontZap" "Off"
Option "AllowMouseOpenFail" "true"
Option "BlankTime" "45"
Option "OffTime" "60"
EndSection

This may help as well.

setxkbmap did the trick, but I'm not sure how to make those changes stick. Which config file do I have to edit so this option is activated during boot-up?

As with the Option "BlankTime" and Option "OffTime" in xorg.conf, those lines were not present, but I added them and will see where that takes me.

In /etc/X11/xorg.conf, edit this part

Code: Select all

Section "InputDevice"
  Identifier "Keyboard0"
  Driver "keyboard"
  Option "CoreKeyboard"
  Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
  Option "XkbLayout" "us,is"
  Option "XKbOptions" "grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll"
EndSection



Alt shift will toggle us to is keyboard
