[Bug 270374] Re: [intrepid] enter a computer name then hit enter, list stays on screen and steals input

2009-01-21 Thread Ben Stokes
I confirm this bug. I have a workaround instead of sudo killall tsclient from another tty. If you press the windows key you can being up the start menu on the remote computer and log off. This releases the screen back to you. You can then reconnect by pressing OK instead of using the enter key. --

2009-04-14 Thread Ben Stokes
I experienced the same Ubiquity crash when the installer unmounted a partition to make it available for the installer. The partition was on a SATA disk. I also completely agree with danielhollocher above on the wording of the buttons - they should read 'unmount volume and continue' and 'continue w

This problem still exists in Lucid Beta 2. I replicated this exactly on my Acer Aspire Revo R3600 - X crashes and causes a total system hang. I can boot from the Lucid live cd but only by using the "nomodeset xforcevesa" options... Chewit: can you advise the workaround you used to get Lucid bootin

2009-09-21 Thread Ben Stokes
I would like to request that Ubuntu goes in its own direction regarding this bug - seems like an obvious paper cut to me. If a new Ubuntu user has accidentlly removed both panels, it is extremely difficult to get them back and I could easily see it leading to a reinstall. If there is only one panel

Version 2.31.90 here, bug still exists. The dialog box has dimensions larger than my screen resolution and there is no scroll bar and no visible add button. I notice I can tab to things on the dialog that are invisible. But pressing the space bar on the hidden elements doesn't do anything. It woul

I experienced the same problem on a Samsung NC210 netbook. The screen where you can select a profile photo or take one with the webcam has buttons which are completely off-screen on a 1024z600 resolution monitor. You can tab to an 'invisible' button and press enter to proceed, blindly guessing that
