[Bug 1062531] Re: apparmor prevents evince from accessing /run/user/

2014-07-07 Thread Jonathan Reed
For anyone, like me, who is naive enough to think that it's possible to
set XDG_CACHE_HOME or DCONF_PROFILE to values other than the default,
note that this fix _only_ allows access to the user profile.  If you
rename your user profile, you cannot use any apparmor-enabled
application that uses dconf.  I know there's nothing to be done about
this, but I'm leaving this comment here lest anyone else encounter this
situation.

[Bug 995543] Re: [precise] .gvfs fuse mount is not functional after logout and subsequent login

2014-06-20 Thread Jonathan Reed
Regarding comment #4, I don't think it's ecryptfs that's causing it,
because I'm seeing it periodically on an AFS home directory.  This
suggests that's more likely to be the usual culprit of All UI designers
assume that $HOME is on a filesystem that supports sockets and FIFOs

[Bug 1046490] [NEW] Saving attachment displays error because of null path

2012-09-05 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

When attempting to save an attachment in Evolution 3.2.3-0ubuntu6 on a
clean install, saving the attachment opens a GtkFileChooser initially
browsing the path , which naturally displays an error saying The
folder contents could not be displayed: Operation not supported.  This
is because the key Gconf key /apps/evolution/shell/file_chooser_folder
is set to an empty value.  If set to the user's homedir (e.g.
file:///home/joeuser), or even a sane default (e.g. file:///), this
error is not displayed.   If the user dismisses the error, and navigates
to a valid location in the GtkFileChooser and saves the file, then that
location will be saved in the Gconf key and the error won't recur, but
this is not good user experience.

Steps to reproduce on a clean install of Ubuntu 12.04:

1) Launch Evolution.

2) Configure an e-mail account.

3) Navigate to a message with an attachment

4) Attempt to save the attachment

5) See the error.

6) Run gconftool-2 -s /apps/evolution/shell/file_chooser_folder -t
string file://$HOME

7) Repeat steps 1-4, note that no error occurs.

The workaround in the first comment (editing the theme XML) works great.
Is there any chance of seeing this in Quantal, or is Metacity considered

[Bug 724604] Re: gnome-panel 2.32.1-0ubuntu6 forces Unity on gnome-classic session users

2011-04-11 Thread Jonathan Reed
This is apparently fixed as of April 11, in that if I create a new local
account and select Ubuntu Classic, I essentially get a Lucid panel.
However, for accounts that used the previously-broken Ubuntu Classic,
I still get appmenu, presumably because the gconf migration path is
broken.

[Bug 436936] Re: gdm upstart job checks /proc/cmdline for single user mode, won't start on post-boot runlevel change

2011-03-17 Thread Jonathan Reed
I tested the new gdm.conf, and confirm that
a) GDM doesn't start in recovery mode
b) GDM does start if I telinit 2 from a recovery mode shell

However, (b) is not particularly helpful, because it still doesn't work
if I choose the Resume option from the Recovery Menu.

All the Resume option does is exit.  From 
/usr/share/recovery-mode/recovery-menu:
  if [ $choice = resume ]; then
exit
  fi

So it's possible that once this is fixed, a bug should be opened against
friendly-recovery to have it run telinit 2 instead of  just exit

[Bug 724604] Re: gnome-panel 2.32.1-0ubuntu6 forces Unity on gnome-classic session users

2011-03-17 Thread Jonathan Reed
This bug is still present as of the latest updates (March 17), and UI
freeze is in a week.  Can anyone confirm whether this change was by
design or not?  Because if there's no way to opt-out of Unity on a per-
session basis and use the classic (read: Lucid, Maverick) interface,
then I have to update a lot of documentation and re-train 6000 or so
users between now and April.

[Bug 724604] [NEW] gnome-panel 2.32.1-0ubuntu6 forces Unity on gnome-classic session users

2011-02-24 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

The latest release of gnome-panel in Natty seems to have forced the
Unity interface on me while ignoring my session type.  When I specify
Ubuntu Classic at the login screen, I expect to to see a traditional
panel.  Instead I get a Unity-style panel, including the Start Menu
and the menubar/panel combination.

Note: I believe this is a gnome-panel bug that originates from the
changes in made in 2.32.1-0ubuntu6, not a gnome-session bug.

2011-01-25 Thread Jonathan Reed
This bug is still present in Lucid.

It is exacerbated by the fact that recovery mode offers a resume
option which is supposed to return the machine to its normal state.
However, since recovery mode is single user mode, gdm never starts.

It would be great if this was finally fixed in Natty, especially since
it's a one line fix.

[Bug 600390] [NEW] gdm doesn't display contents of /etc/nologin

2010-06-30 Thread Jonathan Reed
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gdm

When logins are disabled by the presence of /etc/nologin, GDM simply
responds with Authentication failure after the username is entered.
While what it says is technically true, this is a terrible user
experience.  Ideally, it should display the contents of /etc/nologin.
Failing that, it should at least say Logins are disabled.

The username list is disabled via gconf (/apps/gdm/simple-
greeter/disable_user_list true), so I haven't tested the behavior if the
username list is enabled.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Create /etc/nologin
2) Type a username at the GDM login screen
3) Observe that it says Authentication failure

[Bug 387536] Re: Zenity should ignore markup with a flag

2010-06-16 Thread Jonathan Reed
Any text with an ampersand will trigger the bug.

$ zenity --info --text 'This has an  in it'

The following is printed to stderr:
(zenity:21569): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set text from markup due to error 
parsing markup: Error on line 1: Character ' ' is not valid at the start of an 
entity name; the  character begins an entity; if this ampersand isn't supposed 
to be an entity, escape it as amp;

And zenity displays its default All updates are complete dialog
instead of the text.

Ideally, it should be told to ignore Pango markup.  Failing that, the
man page should explicitly inform users that they need to escape
anything that could be interpreted as Pango markup.
