[Bug 1076944] Re: Libreoffice crash when I try to save the files

2013-01-30 Thread Frank Zimmerman
I had a similar problem with Kubuntu 12.10. Someone suggested it was a problem with the KDE Dialogs and ibus. I turned off the KDE dialogs in LibreOffice options and no more crash...but I think it could be related to something interacting with the KDE dialogs (like ibus?). Anyway, the LibreOffice

Andreas, Wish I could say the same...I'm still seeing a slow but steady creep in memory on the Compiz process, and opening and closing Dash (with the Super key, pressed repeatedly) shows a regular climb of about 0.5mb per open/close. This is on a relatively new computer (Phenom Quad, 4GB Ram) with

Was this patch ever applied? I'm seeing the same problem with Ubuntu 11.04, 64-bit, and the latest Evolution. The "evolution-rss" is listed as 0.2.2-0ubuntu1. It's causing the same problem. If I remove this package, inline pictures work again. -- You received this bug notification because you are

I have the same problem on a Toshiba Portege M400. Same version of Natty (i386), same graphics (Intel 945). My screen resolution is 1400x1050. If I toggle it down to 1024x768, it rotates okay. But if I leave it at the native resolution, I get the black bar at the top of the screen. -- You receive

I also saw a rapid rise in memory usage with compiz on an update from 10.10 to 11.04 on two different machines (both with Nvidia 8400GS). So I tried a fresh, clean install on one of these computers. It seemed fine for the first day, but the next day compiz was at 2GB memory usage. I was also usin

This morning, I encountered the exact same error and consequences as posted above while trying to install the Sun Java runtime and plugin. I'm using the 9.10 beta, i386 version.

I just noticed this behaviour of vino-server on a netbook (Acer AspireOne) running Jaunty. It did not occur before. I tried a restart and the CPU usage still went up after restart (to about 60%). Running top from terminal showed vino-server near the top of the list. Ran a killall on it and CPU went

One more note: I was able to get rid of the excessive cache ram by issuing the following commands from terminal: sudo su echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches That doesn't solve the problem, but at least keeps the system going a litt
