-====== Suspend/hibernate ======
+====== Rotation and buttons ======
+[[http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6102181&postcount=344|This post]] contains a very useful script which will take care of rotating screen, touchscreen recognition and something with fonts. However, it contains a typo that after several weeks still wasn't fixed, so I'm providing a {{:informatica:rotate.sh|fixed version}}. I also created a very simple {{:informatica:rotate.svg|icon}} if you want to add a launcher on a panel.
-Initially worked, but at wakeup mouse and keyboard didn't work ([[https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/23497|bug #23497]]), problem can be solved [[http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5220536&postcount=19|this way]].
+Notice that you have to make rotate.sh executable to use it: right-click it, choose "Properties", then "Permissions" and check the last checkbox.
-However, after some updates, computer will not suspend the second or third time it is asked to, and I will have to reboot: I will try to understand what update exactly broke it.
+The two buttons I have under the screen don't work at all. The "DVD" and multimedia ones do.
+The "rotate" button (the one under "DVD") is recognized but not enabled by default. To make it work, in a terminal give the command
+    gconf-editor
+then browse to apps -> metacity -> global_keybindings, find "run_command_1", click on "disabled" and type instead "0xc9". Finally, click "keybinding_commands", find "command_1" and instead of "disabled" type the path of the "rotate.sh" script.
+//(if you're curious, this special value "0xc9" was found just pushing the button in the keyboard shortcuts manager)//
+//(Also notice that this has a negative side effect: the small button over the touchpad sends the same signal, so if you push it, the screen rotates. However, I never push it...)//
+====== Suspend/hibernate ======

-Did work, then I reinstalled and at the moment I can't find the howto I followed at the time. I implies installing package fprint-demo and editing a pair of files (one was /etc/pam.d/common-auth). Some useful info if you speak Italian is [[http://www.oneopensource.it/29/11/2007/fprint-il-tanto-atteso-supporto-ai-lettori-di-impronte-digitali|here]].
