[Bug 158340] Cannot configure Evolution to get emails from /var/mail/My_User
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evolution I'm trying to add a Local Delivery account to Evolution so that emails from /var/mail/my_user get delivered to my On This Computer inbox. This was simple for earlier versions of Evolution, but for the version shipped with Gutsy, one has to do: - Preferences - Accounts - Add New Account - In the wizard choose Local Delivery - in the Path click and navigate to /var/mail - then click on Edit Path icon on top and actually type /var/mail/my_user because the user file is grayed out and if you choose the directory itself, Evolution complaints - after hitting Ok, Evolution throws the error File exists and cannot create the file (which it shouldn't do) - then you click Cancel - then Ok in the dialog now showing /var/mail/my_user as the source for receiving emails And now you can receive emails... This is really bizarre and it should be fixed. ** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Cannot configure Evolution to get emails from /var/mail/My_User https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/158340 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for evolution in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 67307] Re: EDGY RC, USB storage devices no longer mounted
I was beaten by this same bug, the solution is USB needs more power. Now, I dunno if the new driver (or the version used by Ubuntu kernels have something to do) In my case, I just plugged the device in the USB ports behind my computer (not in front) and everything just worked.

[Bug 98684] Switching users (switch user) blank screen on fglrx (ATI driver)
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gdm On Feisty, when switching users on a system running an ATI (Radeon 9700pro) using the fglrx driver, the system goes into a blank screen and you can never return to a console. CTRL+F# does not work, so you cannot go to a text console either. The only thing that works is to ssh into the box from another one and restart the system. Killing gdm and X would freeze the system. I tested on an Intel-based GPU system and this problem did not happen. Its possible that this problem affects Nvidia users as well, though I have no way to confirm this. Some in the #ubuntu-devel IRC talked about this issue for Nvidia cards (pitti on IRC #ubuntu-devel). ** Affects: gdm (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Switching users (switch user) blank screen on fglrx (ATI driver) https://launchpad.net/bugs/98684 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
