HP EliteBook 840 G1

Function keys

Not sure why this was added. Both function keys work correctly out of the box with GNOME 3 —This unsigned comment is by Mmd (talk) 17:50, 26 December 2014‎. Please sign your posts with ~~~~!

You are talking about the wiki page HP EliteBook 840 G1, right? You are right, the WLAN toggle key is working by now. But for me, the microphone function key isn't. If it works for you, can you please add the necessary steps to the wiki page? Thanks. -- 6arms1leg (talk) 01:31, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Redshift

Day and night transition

Strange, I'm using redshift-1.10 and the following configuration

~/.config/redshift.conf

[redshift]
location-provider=manual
adjustment-method=randr
transition=0

temp-day=6500
temp-night=3000

[manual]
; Moscow
lat=55.7
lon=37.6

doesn't disable transition period between day and night for me (neither is -r option; that it is equivalent with transition=0 can be seen from the source code of redshift).

Transition between day and night is controlled by elevation-high and elevation-low configuration values. I just checked that if they are set to the same value (e.g. 0.0), then day-night change will be instant, even if transition=1. And if they are left different, gradual day-night transition will occur, even if transition=0.

I am using Gentoo, not Archlinux, but I don't think there is a difference between distributions. Gentoo does not have any patches for redshift-1.10, neither appears to have Archlinux. July.tikh (talk) 17:45, 27 October 2015 (UTC)

Hello July.tikh,

sorry for undoing your edit, but I'm on Arch Linux and it seems to be working for me. I copied this conversation over to the Redshift talk page, so others can see it and contribute as well. In case this really isn't working as the comments in the config file claim, you might consider reporting it upstream. -- 6arms1leg (talk) 10:19, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
