Is there a way to disable the keyboard and mouse ports? I have a machine in a public area running an application that no-one needs to touch. However, someone could come up and plug a keyboard in it and mouse and be logged in as that user (not root).

I have a dell inspiron 8200 laptop . Install went fine. After booting and using my laptop for a while my mouse pointer just disappears. Any ideas? Any way to restart my mouse pointer?

I'm running a windows app on wine under Ubuntu Linux, i've changed the mouse cursore theme in ubuntu but this change isn't reflected on wine app . Is there a way to change the default mouse pointer theme in a wine app ? Is there a way to hide the mouse cursor in a wine app ?

Is there a way to change the default mouse pointer theme in a wine app ? No, Wine always uses it's own pointer icon(s). The code that deals with user set cursors is not implemented (SPI_SETCURSORS). aleroot wrote: Is there a way to hide the mouse cursor in a wine app ? Not by the user. Applications have to do it.

Hi all, Is there a command line command that controls which virtual X screen a person is viewing? Sure I can click on one of the 4 virtual X screens but can I control that from the command line. Thanks, Jerry

centos has the 4 virtual desktops by default. if I have a terminal window open in desktop 1 is there a command I can execute (type in) to switch to desktop 2? The mouse will not be attached at this point and I want to switch views using a command line. How do I do that? Thanks, Jerry

I have two monitors, one landscape and the other portrait. When I rotate the portrait monitor using xrandr (or the xorg.conf option) the mouse cursor on the landscape monitor is also rotated and the "click point" is no longer below the cursor (this makes the mouse practically unusable). The cursor is correct on the rotated monitor. Setting NoAccel "False" and HWCursor

Is there a command that marks the screen as "dirty" and hopefully redraws it? If I do a control ALT F1 and the F7 this in effect redraws the screen. I am getting video artifacts that I think is in the nvidia driver. the switching console works - I was just hoping there is a more convenient way. some command or something. Thanks, Jerry

Hi all, I am trying to run kvm (which works) on my desktop. then when I vnc into my desktop I can use everything as normal except the kvm window. It messes up. Its like the mouse isnt really when its supposed to be or something. Anyone ran into this? I am using 5.6 x86_64. Thanks, Jerry

All, I have been looking at zenity to pop up messages on the X screen. Is there another alternative to zenity that I have not found? I need to be able to completely remove the OK button, I cannot find a way in zenity to do this. also It would be nice to have a --timeout 5 option on the command line also. Any suggestions? Jerry

Is it possible to run wine (wineconsole??) without X windows. I just have a simple character app that executes in a DOS window and uses printf(). I tried 0.9.30 and wineconsole doing control_alt_f1 and it BLEW I couldnt even alt_f7 to get back. I had to reboot. Should this be possible? If so how? Jerry

Gents, I first installed the 32 bit version (as you might have read) of centos 4.2, after downloading x86_64 the install process/progress is about the same. going VERY slow... The screen for formatting the partitions took a LONG time (3 partitions 10 GIG, 2 GIG swap and 50 GIG). While on that screen and moving the mouse it lagged big time and could not keep up. Anyway just reporting that so far

I've got the exact same problem. So: *BUMP* > I have two monitors, one landscape and the other portrait.

Is there any way other than CTL ALT + and CTL ALT - to set and or change the resolution of the X server when I want to. Is there a way to so take me to "1920x1080" mode and then later take me to "1366x768" mode. With xvidtune I see the -next and -prev options but I was hoping for jumping to specific modes. I so realize I can also edit out unwanted modes in the xorg.conf but
