@seb128 I'm in a Starbucks now. #1727237 does not fix my issue.

This seems to be a duplicate of open bug: #1766969 (
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1766969 ), which
forked from #1727237




**WORKAROUND:**

1. At Starbucks, connect to Google Starbucks WiFi.
2. Jump into a browser to have it identify a "server not found", need the name 
of the server in the browser address. (Example: Browser hangs on 
`https://aruba.odyssys.net`)
3. Open terminal and run `ip route` to determine ROUTER.IP (example: `ip route` 
returns `default via 172.31.98.1`)
4. Lookup the server IP address from local router by running `dig @ROUTER.IP 
server.not.found` (example: `dig @172.31.98.1 aruba.odyssys.net` returns `;; 
ANSWER SECTION:
aruba.odyssys.net.  0   IN  A   172.31.98.1`)
5. Add IP address to /etc/hosts (Example: `sudo nano /etc/hosts` add the line: 
`172.31.98.1aruba.odyssys.net`)
6. Add nameservers to /etc/resolv.conf (Example: `sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf` 
add lines above existing nameserver `nameserver 172.31.98.1` and `nameserver 
8.8.8.8`)

Try again to connect (and don't reboot before connecting).


**Notes:** 
After reviewing the output as I was sharing I realized 
Step 4 might be totally unnecessary. 
Step 5 is a permanent change that likely will affect your ability to connect at 
other Starbucks.
Step 6 is temporary and systemd will overwrite the file at reboot, possibly 
sooner.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1762772] Re: Keyboard shortcuts applet misses some keybindings

2018-04-12 Thread mike stewart
Symptoms are the same as #1508146 (but I'm not sure it's the same
cause).


alt+left/right sends me to another tty (terminal shell). Although I'm still 
trying to determine if its window manager / keymapper kind of issue or what.  I 
use ubuntu because I don't typically like to get to this level.

This seems to be a regression error, I installed updates yesterday (same
day I noticed: Apr-11 and also updates on either Apr9/10).

Also of note, (out of ordinary), I had to kill an out of control
evolution-addressbook-factory-subprocess process using System Monitor.
System lost a lot of window manager features and led me to switch tty to
reboot.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 93546]

2012-05-19 Thread Mike-stewart
For goodness sake.  TEN YEARS and an issue is still new.  In a
commercial environment someone would be sacked.

You cant run Firefox in a remote desktop session or under Citrix if
another session already has Firefox open.  This is a pretty big defect.

Frankly, this is the achilles heel of community software.  Lots of
voluntary work on building a Ferrari ... but because it is not managed
as a consumer product ... you cant drive it on Sundays between 2 and
3pm.

The thing that really ticks me off after 20 years in the industry is
techs nodding their heads and saying yep, that's to be expected.
Sorry, just because you can come up with an explanation doesn't mean
its OK.

Any workaround is better than closing umpteen duplicates and leaving
an issue open for 10 years.  Come back in 2050 and this will probably
still be open.

Am I really the only one who is ashamed to say I'm a software developer?
This is exactly the sort of thing that sees software guys get mocked by
business people (well actually anyone for that matter)... and fair
enough too.

Firefox as a browser is in my opinion the best (except for this
particular problem) ... all the man hours that some extremely talented
and selfless people have put into the tool is amazing .. only to be let
down by a failure to look at the whole... as a tool used by people ...
to address real usability issues ... which after all is the point.

Do you know that in real engineering disciplines people construct whole
buildings? that stay standing? that can be used all year round? That
take technology and engineering and apply it to _people_? that can be
constructed in days? to budget?!! ... such a revolutionary concept.

While db has been very generous with his time to provide his script I
don't think this will help my grandmother.

Yep, Im an angry old man .. the thing that makes me a sad old man is
that this sort of failure is why open source and community software
hasn't quite conquered the world how many predicted.  Instead a
commercial layer appears in between .. a layer that tweaks all the
effort of selfless individuals to get to an actual product that
delivers... and that commercial layer then chuckles it all the way back
to the bank.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  Over on the Ubuntu user's mailing list someone asked a question about
  Thunderbird address data sources. So in the process of replying I check
  on my systems  found:

  OOo 2.1 installed from Openoffice.org files directly (installed on
  Dapper) has:

  File|Templates|Address Book Source|  Administrate button
  - Evolution
  - Groupwise
  - Evolution LDAP
  - Mozilla / Netscape
  - Thunderbird
  - KDE address book
  - LDAP address book
  - Other external data source

  OOo 2.2(rc3) (Ubuntu'ized Feisty version) only shows:

  File|Templates|Address Book Source|  Administrate button
  - Evolution
  - Groupwise
  - Evolution LDAP
  - Other external data source

  Note: Thunderbird is installed  working on both machines.

  I then installed OOo 2.2(rc3) (non-Ubuntu'ized version) on Ubuntu
  Dapper using the files from OOo and the results are exactly the same
  as my OOo 2.1 (non-Ubuntuized) version:

  File|Templates|Address Book Source|  Administrate button
  - Evolution
  - Groupwise
  - Evolution LDAP
  - Mozilla / Netscape
  - Thunderbird
  - KDE address book
  - LDAP address book
  - Other external data source

  The Ubuntu version is missing:
  - Mozilla / Netscape
  - Thunderbird
  - KDE address book
  - LDAP address book
