[Bug 1112061] Re: unity forgets focus-follows-mouse setting across update and reboot
Running 14.04. Installed Unity Tweak Tool specifically to let me turn on focus follows mouse. Did so. Multiple times now I discover that it has reset itself back to focus mode "click" through no action on my part. My best guess it that it can happen mid session, and not just across a reboot, but I haven't yet specifically noted when it happens exactly, nor pinned down a cause. However, when it does happen, the unity tweak tool happily tells me that the mode is back to "click" instead of "mouse". This needs a fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1112061 Title: unity forgets focus-follows-mouse setting across update and reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1112061/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 275010] Re: Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring
I have a related question. In Ubuntu 8.04, Max's workaround doesn't work. (My initial problem was with 8.10, I know.) Max said: 1. Add the line "unset SSH_AUTH_SOCK" to ~/.xsessionrc (creating it if it doesn't exist). 2. Run gnome-session-properties and untick "GNOME Keyring Daemon Wrapper". But in 8.04, there is no "GNOME Keyring Daemon Wrapper" choice in gnome- session-properties. What I want to do is get gnome-keyring-daemon out of the loop entirely. Don't ask for my ssh passphrase in a dialog window, just let it be entered on the command line. I'll use "ssh-add -D" when I'm done to get things out of memory. Is there some way to get gnome-keyring to stop acting as an ssh-agent (or whatever it's doing) in 8.04 and instead just let the real ssh-agent do it's thing?

[Bug 275010] Re: Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring
Thanks much, Kenny. That did the trick. I wish I knew were all this documentation existed. I'd never heard of gconf-editor. Seems like a tool that fundamental should be right on the ubuntu menus somewhere, but I can't find it there. Anyway, it works.

[Bug 275010] Re: Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring
I can confirm this bug on a vanilla 8.10 install. I see the same error repeated 3 times after each reboot: Nov 5 10:45:41 dworkin gdm[4869]: gnome-keyring-daemon: couldn't lookup keyring component setting: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: dbus-launch failed to autolaunch D-Bus session: No protocol specified This is a problem on several levels, and I'd probably prefer to get gkr to stop dealing with ssh keys entirely. If anyone knows of a work around that would make that happen I'd love to see that here. -- Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275010 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 275010] Re: Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring
Is there a way to simply turn off gnome-keyring-daemon? If I did that, what else would break? I can't find it in 8.10's "services" management UI, so I don't know if a typical user can shut it down without some sort of nasty issues cropping up. But, shutting it down might get me past the silly popup window asking for my passphrase, and let me just enter it into the terminal, where it should be done. -- Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275010 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 275010] Re: Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring
I, also, am running Max's workaround. The odd thing is that even if you do what he suggests in gnome-session-properties, you'll still see the Gnome keyring wrapper daemon running on the machine. However, it will stop messing with ssh keys, and the standard ssh-agent commands will then work to let you manipulate keys in the usual way because ssh-agent is running. The GUI lead me to believe I was turning off the Gnome keyring wrapper daemon, but apparently that isn't what it really does. So much for truth in advertising. Or something. :) -- Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275010 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 275010] Re: Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring
Max, good question. Right now, on the computer in question, I see only the daemon. Not the wrapper. What I saw back in mid-November (when I first tried your workaround) I can't say. I probably had only the daemon itself running at that time as well, but who knows. 8.10 hasn't been nearly stable enough for me to avoid reboots in the interim. At least 2 kernel updates and 3 or 4 issues of a black screen in X (when coming back after the screen saver has been invoked) that won't go away and require a reboot, etc. I wish my Ubuntu experience had been a smooth one, but it's been really rocky. I've got other issues as well that I won't bother to detail here. Anyway, to answer you, it appears the keyring is running, which is apparently the right thing, so disregard my comment. -- Unable to disable the ssh module of gnome-keyring https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275010 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
