Is there a workaround? Better question: is there any hope of GNOME developers *not* breaking critical functionality from release to release?

Walter, I just read that document. I need to be a computer scientist just to decipher that thing. I am not a community member, coder, or someone with the time to follow all that procedure. Look, I'm just a poor LTS user. I bought into the whole promise of Ubuntu that while LTS is supposed to lack new features, it would fix critical bugs. This is a critical bug with LTS. It's been fixed upstream. It causes the file open dialog to behave in an erratic and potentially harmful way. And no one is willing to bring it back to LTS? If there isn't a regular Ubuntu dev, whether paid or volunteer, who recognizes how important this bug is, then I give up on Ubuntu. Even worse, if you do recognize how important this bug is to fix, but lack the willingness to put your expertise into use for 2 minutes to follow that procedure of which you just spoke, then I give up on Ubuntu even worse.

Shame on you, Ubuntu, for leaving this bug unfixed nine months after it was (supposedly) fixed upstream.

Leaving the importance low when there is the possibility of uploading the wrong file to a work-critical website? Are you kidding me? Shame on you. Shame on you.

Well, I'm fairly sure that this is not purely a GTK issue. I've tested many other GTK apps with complicated multi-panel windows (rhythmbox, pidgin), and they don't have this issue.

[Bug 208404] [NEW] Keyboard repeat rate not synchronized with gconf value at login
Public bug reported: Fully updated Hardy. When I set the keyboard repeat rate using either gnome-keyboard-properties or gconf-editor, the new repeat rate is recognized by the system. Upon reboot or logout/login, the actual keyboard rate reverts to the default keyboard repeat rate, despite the fact that gconf-editor shows the correct value. Editing the value in gconf-editor and pressing return with no change makes the new keyboard repeat rate active. The same is true in gnome-keyboard-properties. Steps to reproduce: 1) Start with default keyboard repeat rate. 2) Change the repeat rate to something high, like 200, in gconf-editor. The gconf key is /desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/rate 3) In all apps, keyboard repeats incredibly fast when a key is held down 4) Logout and log back in. 5) Keyboard rate has noticeably reverted to original slower rate in all apps. 6) Open gconf-editor. The keyboard rate is still 200. 7) Edit the rate, by double-clicking, but leave it at 200. Hit return. 8) Keyboard is back to the fast repeat rate in all apps. ** Affects: gconf (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Keyboard repeat rate not synchronized with gconf value at login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/208404 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gconf in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 153706] Any user can reboot or shutdown computer when screen is locked
Public bug reported: If the screen is locked, and user switching is enabled, any malicious person can reboot or shutdown the computer by selecting switch users from the screensaver dialog, and then rebooting the computer. This can use potential loss of data for the user who locked the screen.

[Bug 153706] Re: Any user can reboot or shutdown computer when screen is locked
For most computers, this is not such a big issue because a malicious user can just turn off the machine anyway. However, this IS an issue for e.g. kiosks where the user has no access to the physical machine. True, user switching ought to be disabled by kiosk machines, but it is turned out by default in Ubuntu and so Ubuntu kiosks without this feature will be vulnerable to disruption. -- Any user can reboot or shutdown computer when screen is locked https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/153706 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for gdm in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 84876] Re: Gnome settings manager error to start desktop
I seem to be having a similar problem on an updated install of Feisty, except that my GNOME is never slow to load---it loads with about the same speed as in Edgy. Here is what happens. If I login normally after booting, all is fine. But say I boot up the computer and leave gdm running for a while. If I do so, there is like a 20% chance that I when I do login, I will get this error (there was an error starting the gnome settings daemon). GNOME comes up at a lower screen resolution, and the Ubuntu theme is gone (it uses the default GNOME theme). Killing X with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace and re-loggin in fixes the problem. I have also had this same error message come up when I've booted the live CD. But only the first time! All the other times the live CD has booted fine.

[Bug 42712] Re: gdmsetup segfaults
I can confirm that the segfault was due to the absence of /etc/gdm/gdm .conf-custom after playing around with xgl/compiz. The instructions on the forums say that one should delete this file to disable xgl/compiz. It appears as mentioned above that removing this file causes gdmsetup to segfault.

[Bug 29960] Incorrect behavior when logging out of GNOME via keyboard shortcut
Public bug reported: https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/29960 Affects: gnome-desktop (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed Description: When logging out of GNOME using the Log out keyboard short cut, I find that the save session warning dialog comes up regardless of the save current session setting. To reproduce: 1) Under System-Preferences-Keyboard Shortcuts, Assign a key to the Log out keyboard shortcut. 2) Be sure that the Automatically save changes to session box is unchecked under System-Preferences-Sessions 3) Open some unsupported applications, such as firefox and emacs. 4) Log out using the keyboard shortcut. You will be warned that firefox and emacs do not support session saving. This is the bug---you should not be asked anything about session saving at all because you have save changes to session turned off. Logging out using the GNOME menu from the panel does not produce the spurious warning---only logging out via the keyboard shortcut causes the behavior. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
