[Bug 76004] Re: Help doesn't open

2007-08-07 Thread Johannes Aquila
I had success with a modification of Dan Munckton's fix: cd /usr/share/gnome/help ln -s evolution evolution-2.10 cd evolution cd C ln -s evolution.xml evolution-2.10.xml This fixes the problem for the default locale (C). Repeat the same for any other locales, like en_GB, fr or es, that your users

Same problem here with a ThinkStation S20, Nvidia Quadro 2000, and grub 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.3. Apparently the default is to use the monitor's full resolution of (in my case) 1920x1200, causing the bug to appear. It's obviously not a big problem, but it's quite irritating. Is there a technical re

I think there is at least privacy issue in connection with VPNs and DNS leaks. Preventing a DNS leak requires proper configuration of IPv4 and IPv6 DNS servers. The latter are usually not needed and are more cumbersome to configure since most people can't remember IPv6 addresses for long. As the ch

Second attempt at installation had the same result. To rule out my choices, I selected US locale and no automatic login on the second attempt. One weirdness I noticed: On the first attempt, a 4.3 GB swap partition was created. On the second attempt, no swap partition was created. (In both both cas

I may have found the solution. The default disk size for Ubuntu VMs in VirtualBox is 8 GB, which seems to be on the low side. Apparently the Kubuntu installer can't deal with that restriction. (Making half of it an unnecessary swap partition on the first round is clearly a symptom of this problem!)
