[Bug 217713] Re: Inserting blank CD opens window on all users' desktops
Similar problems occur with any mounted volume. For example, as user A, insert a USB stick. With default settings, a Nautilus window will open on A's desktop (good); but Nautilus will also try and open a window for the new volume on B's desktop (bad), resulting in a dialog box reporting the lack of permissions. Plug in a camera: same thing -- eg, f-spot opens on both users' desktops to import the photos. (When using compiz with an nvidia driver, these windows on B's desktop appear white when B returns to his or her session; but that is a different issue.) Somehow, the system must know who is sitting at the keyboard and which session is active. Windows should not be opened on the desktops belonging to other sessions. -- Inserting blank CD opens window on all users' desktops https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/217713 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 276384] Re: Thinkfinger doesn't unlock keyring
The bug here seems to be the inability of gnome-keyring to work together with pam. It seems that pam is configurable to allow various different "secrets" to be used for tasks such as logging in. Thus, pam can be configured to allow either a fingerprint or a password or both, as sufficient verification for login. However, the gnome-keyring stands apart from this: the only thing secret that will unlock the keyring is the password for that keyring (at least as far as I understand). The security (or lack of) of fingerprint readers here is not the point. The same problem would apply to any other authentication method. -- Thinkfinger doesn't unlock keyring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276384 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm not sure if the following is the same slowness that the original bug describes, but I experience this. With Ubuntu 9.04 on Dell laptop with intel graphics, do the following: 1. Press and hold the "volume-up" button. Hold it long enough for the key auto-repeat to register more than 20 repeats, say. 2. Release the volume-up button. 3. Watch the volume on-screen-display. It slowly, slowly responds to each on one of those 20 repeats. Each response takes about 1/2 to 1 second. Each response is not smooth (the osd is supposed to "glow" up and down, but it changes in irregular steps). You can sit and watch it for 15 seconds. 4. During all this time "top" shows that notify-osd is using about 89% of one of the two CPU cores. This happens both with metacity and with compiz. It really makes the volume-control on my laptop completely unusable. The user needs to be able to press and hold the button and simply release the button when the volume is at the desired level.

[Bug 108611] Re: acpi scripts are only called on events
This is the situation in intrepid, I think: The script /etc/acpi/power.sh seems to be called whenever the AC power is plugged in or removed, and it is also called at boot up (via the init script /etc/init.d/acpi-support) and when resuming from suspend. This is okay. However, the script /etc/acpi/power.sh checks whether the power state has actually changed, using the function checkStateChanged(). This function does "exit 0" if the state has not changed. If the state has changed, then the power.sh script runs all the scripts in either /etc/acpi/battery.d or /etc/acpi/ac.d, as appropriate. This works fine for plugging in and unplugging the power, and at resume from suspend. It does not work at boot time, however, because the checkStateChanged function is irrelevant at boot time. This is the thought behind msrgi's modification. I think a simpler way to deal with it is to change /etc/init.d/acpi-support by adding a line: case "$1" in start) log_begin_msg "Checking battery state..." if [ -f "$POWERSTATE" ]; then rm "$POWERSTATE"; fi /etc/acpi/power.sh .. etc The result should be that the init script will always call the scripts in either /etc/acpi/battery.d or /etc/acpi/ac.d on startup. -- acpi scripts are only called on events https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/108611 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Public bug reported: The Xsession script in /etc/X11/Xsession sources all the configuration files in the directory /etc/X11/Xsession.d. After upgrading dapper to edgy, that directory contains two differently-named versions (not exact duplicates) of several files.

To clarify this: I think eog is doing all it can. Since the original bug report, the name of the trash file has changed in recent gnome.

(C) If the user does not have permission to create it, then fail. Nautilus does essentially the same thing. The between eog and nautilus is that, if failure occurs, nautilus will offer to "delete the file immediatley" (instead of moving to trash). Perhaps eog should do the same.

[Bug 49890] Re: USB drive not detected if booted with drive connected
I have what I think may be the same problem, though in my case it is not 100% reproducible. Steps to reproduce my situation: 1. Format an external USB drive, with a partition (ext3 in my case) and a volume label "foo" for that partition. 2. Turn off the computer, connect the USB drive, power it on, and boot the PC (into Ubuntu 7.10 in my case). 3. See whether hal has picked up the existence of the external usb disk by doing: hal-find-by-property --key volume.label --string "foo" Actual results: Sometimes (not always) a blank. Expected results: something like /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/volume_uuid_5e69384_ Other remarks: In all other respects, hal is working normally. Also, the label "foo" does appear correctly in /dev/disk/by-label/ and the disk is mountable, using the mount command. Finally, if hal is restarted later, using "sudo invoke-rc.d hal restart", then the USB disk is correctly detected by hal. I wonder if this happens due to a timing issue: in gutsy, hal is started earlier in the boot process than it was in feisty.

These are (1) the tootip for the "Show Desktop" icon, and (2) the tooltip for the workspace switcher applet. In both cases, because they look like menus, the user (or at least, this user) is tempted to click the items. Eg, for the case of the "workspace switcher" tooltip, I try to click on "Go to left workspace". This fails of course, as the tooltip just fades away. I don't have a suggestion of how to "fix" this for the "workspace switcher".

[Bug 188226] Re: Kernel should use CONFIG_FAIR_CGROUP_SCHED
A situation for which the currently configured kernel is poor is the following: - a single-user desktop machine - runs a scripted daily backup using, eg, tar and bz2 compression. The backup script needs to run as root, to access files system wide. Because of the compression stage, the backup script is CPU intensive. The user's script runs with a large "nice" value. In the present configuration, although the user's desktop remains responsive while the backup runs, the backup process running as root takes a significant share of the CPU time, and affects any CPU-intensive task the user is running. If the kernel is recompiled with CONFIG_FAIR_CGROUP_SCHED, then the "nice" value has the desired effect and the backup script is unobstrusive. I have verified this using hardy's 2.6.24-10-generic. Recompiling with CONFIG_FAIR_CGROUP_SCHED greatly increased the CPU share that the user's processes were given while the backup was running. Anyway, the point of this post is to point out that things like boinc are far from the only cases where the present config has a downside. And unlike the boinc case, a systemwide backup cannot so easily be run as another user. -- Kernel should use CONFIG_FAIR_CGROUP_SCHED https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/188226 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 207910] [NEW] Tomboy leaves passwords in log file
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: tomboy Tomboy writes a log file at ~/.tomboy.log. If the user is using webdav to synchronize notes to a server, then the log file contains the full command-line for "wdfs", including the user's password. Although the permissions on the file are -rw-r-, this still seems like poor security. If tomboy is launched from the command-line, then the password also appears in the terminal. For clarification: (1) tomboy does require that the password be stored in the user's keyring, in such a way that it is unlocked at login. So anyone who has access to the user's gnome desktop has access to the plaintext password anyway (just open up "seahorse", and view the password). But still, the user shouldn't expect the password to be written to disk. (2) wdfs is (I think) not part of the ubuntu distribution yet, so this functionality is not available in tomboy in a default install.

Public bug reported: When using the Synchronization facility in Tomboy, a mount is created with sshfs or wdfs.

The mount also appears in the "Computer" places in Nautilus. The synchronization that Tomoby does is supposed to be happening in the background, and the user should not see the (incomprehensible) contents of the mounted directory.

[Bug 109729] Inappropriate --replace option at startup
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: beagle The script in /etc/xdg/autostart/beagled-autostart.desktop launches the beagle daemon with the "--replace" option. I don't know about the pros and cons, but I wonder whether this option is appropriate. If an instance of the daemon is already running for the user, why not let it run? Why replace it? If the --replace option is omitted, and an instance is already running, then the new beagled command will exit quietly, leaving the previous instance in place. The scenario where the --replace option is bad is where the user starts more than one session. For example, joe goes home from work leaving his gnome session running (with beagled running) and his screen locked. From home, he logs into his machine at work, using nx (for example). This starts a new gnome session, and replaces the old instance of beagled. Before going to bed at home, he closes his nx session, which terminates that instance of beagled. Next day, he goes to work and unlocks his screen.

[Bug 481553] [NEW] Sony USB memory stick mis-identified as MP3 player
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: udev I don't know if this is really a udev bug, or what, but: If I insert a Sony USB memory stick (I have a 16GB model), then it is identified incorrectly as a media player: a window pops up with the message "You have inserted a digital audio player ... " with the usual question about whether I want to open it with Rhythmbox etc. I am using Ubuntu 9.10, and I believe this did not happen previously with 9.04. The version of the udev package currently from karmic-updates is 147~-6.1. Further info: The USB memory stick shows up in the output of "lsusb" as: Bus 002 Device 025: ID 054c:0243 Sony Corp.

[Bug 160311] Re: Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult
The new Radiance and Ambiance metacity themes in Lucid have left and right border widths of just 1 pixel. (This is different from the default Human metacity theme in earlier versions of Ubuntu, where the width is 3 pixels.) This issue makes Radiance and Ambiance very difficult to use for anyone who is used to resizing windows from the edge. -- Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160311 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 320639] Re: Touchpad movement problems in 0.99.3
I installed karmic from the live CD and did and did dist-upgrade to latest packages (on Sep 7). I have xserver-xorg-input-synaptics version 1.1.2-1ubuntu5. Out of the box, the touchpad on my Dell XPS M1330 is impossibly fast. After going to the Mouse control panel and turning both controls to their minimum, the Mouse is still too fast (for me). I also believe that the Sensitivity scale is not doing anything. Surely the priority of this bug should be high if laptop touchpads are unusable by normal humans on standard hardware? -- Touchpad movement problems in 0.99.3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/320639 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 444839] [NEW] apparmor profile for evince breaks users themes
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apparmor-profiles The desktop theme I am using is a soft link to a directory under /usr/local/, thus: /usr/share/themes/MY-THEME---> /usr/local/share/themes/MY-THEME When I launch evince, it is unable to read the theme information, and so falls back on a generic (ugly) gtk theme. Adding explicit entries for /usr/local/share/themes to the apparmor profile fixed the problem. This and similar things will be an issue for any application that has an apparmor profile similar to the evince profile. I don't really see a solution to this problem. As I understand it, there is no standard place to store "local" themes so as to make them available systemwide. Creating symlinks in /usr/share/themes seems like a natural choice, but the apparmor profiles won't allow it. Steps to reproduce (though vandalizing your system): 1. sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/themes/ 2. sudo mv /usr/share/themes/Human /usr/local/share/themes/ 3. sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/themes/Human /usr/share/themes/ 4. Go to appearances and click around before reselecting "Human" theme (may not be necessary) 5. Launch evince.
