[Bug 1734541] Re: encrypted home-directory is not unmounted on logout
Still an issue as of today 2020-04-13, for Ubuntu 18.04. Please set this critical immediately, this is a strong security issue for the use case of multiuser device! Using a "guest" user to share your device with others is a quite common use case. Everyone would expect that logging out and pass the device to another person would benefit from a eCrypt FS user homdedir setup. I myself usually log out and set my device to standby on a daily routine. That has me left unprotected by a while now it seems. I usually log out when taking the laptop to unsafe spaces like traveling, conferences and events in public spaces etc. I had expected that logging out would keep my data safe to some level.

[Bug 1805468] [NEW] Snap mounts bloat system footprint by inactive apps
Public bug reported: Affects: Ubuntu 18.04 Snap filesystems mounted by snapd use kernel (and maybe userspace?) ressources just for providing apps. Even if the app is not running, the mount is still there, conuming system ressources. We must remember that we are only at the beginning. If more and more apps migrate to snap format, the filesystem mount table and thus permanently used system ressources would grow even for any non-used app. In the past, most unused features (beside system services like printer environment etc.) on a linux system consumed disk space only, and affect system performance only for some works, eg. doing a backup of the system disk. With snapd behaveing this way, we have to expect every utility (like a clock, unused fonts, emoticon updates, ...) will permamently affect system performance and user experience at any occasion mount points are to be browsed. Personal opinion: This strongly reminds me to the way Windows behaves, and is hated for since ages.

[Bug 1741902] [NEW] Drag and drop state may be freezed by rogue application
Public bug reported: I had some issues with nautlilus in the past time, that of cause need to be resolved by the nautlilus devs, but it turns out that IO freezes (eg. dropped sftp connections) may freeze nautlilus while drag and drop operations, and hence freeze metacity in some kind, as d&d seems to lock some control to the participating applications. What I do: Drag a file from nautilus. What happens: Nautilus blocks for some reason, eg. dropped sftp connection. The mouse pointer stays in dragging state after releasing the mouse button. No drop action is executed. Windows can still be bought to front by clicking them, but never gain focus and no application (besides nautlilus I guess, which is stalled) receives clicks or keystrokes. If at some point nautilus crashes in turn, the system usability is fully restored. If not, a restart by hard shutdown is needed to regain control. What should happen: If an application fails to commence it's drag and drop interaction, the action should be canceled on metacity's behalf. Otherwise any rogue application can stop user interaction down to moving the pointer around, requiring hard reboot. Security considerations: Low. The freezed state seems to block screen locking, and may reveal an unprotected desktop if the rogue application releases control at some point, eg. by crashing.

[Bug 1565780] Re: Xenial flashback session lacks access to nautilus preferences menu
I think we have a much deeper problem here: Some apps (nautlilus, control panel, gitg, ) are using new features (like the launcher icon context menu, mabye first provided by Unity, borderless windows etc.) and do not provide a reliable fallback for old desktops. So if the new features prove useful, the old desktops should retrofit them somehow (eg. making for example gnome-fallback handle external application menus like the Unity launcher icon menus) or the libs used to access these features should provide an internal fallback mechanism. A borderless window should never be shown without resize handles if it would have some in Unity. It is bad to load up the developers of apps with the handling of this new features, as many of them would fall to "new style" promises and would produce Unity-only apps this way.

Still affects me on 14.04. As it is already said, there is no reliable way to assign a touch device to a certain display device. So I suggest a two phase design: 1) Check if there is information for making an automatic assignment in some database. If there are more then one equal device, use display output and USB port id for identification. 2) If none is found, select the by some simple heuristics. Then launch a (to be made) settings program, that displays a centered button the first screen "PLEASE TOUCH HERE". If the button is pressed, the coordinates are checked against the center of all possible displays from 'xrandr' or gnome-display-settings information. If it matches, the assignment is stored to the local database. The procedure continues with the second screen, if there is a third one and so on. If for some reason the database gets outdated (eg the user exchanges screens) phase 2 will be entered autmatically as you see. The only caveat may be exchanging the output assignments of multiple equal display devices. For this case, the phase 2 program should be integrated into the system settings center, and easily be reached without proper touch operation (eg. launch via Unity by keyboard). -- 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/1287341 Title: Touchscreen controls both screens in dual-monitor setup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/1287341/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 1465647] [NEW] GNOME classic session using Compiz does not switch windows on Alt+TAB
Public bug reported: On Ubuntu 12.04, the GNOME Classic session based on Compiz does not provide the Alt-TAB window switching. The 'no effects' session (based on metacity) however does. The reason is that the Compiz used does not include the Compiz 'switcher' plugin. It is contained in the compiz-plugins package, which is not installed. Should be fixed cleanly: The package gnome-session-fallback should not provide a session that depends on compiz, without providing compiz and the compiz-plugins package. And maybe a script that add 'switcher' to the default enabled plugins (seems to be using the gconf backend, so it just need to bring an additional gconf file I guess) is needed. If gnome-session-fallback should not depend on compiz, the Classic session using compiz may move to a new package, and this one only contains 'no effect' variant then. This is actually a variant of bug #971051 which is filed against compiz, which is wrong I guess, as it is not a problem of compiz itself, but rather its configuration in the gnome fallback package. ** Affects: gnome-session (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-session in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1465647 Title: GNOME classic session using Compiz does not switch windows on Alt+TAB To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1465647/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 49579] Re: screen doesn't lock when panel menu is open
This gets more and more important by today, as most users doesn't shutdown their system but use standby. I expect my notebook to be locked if I close the lid. More and more everyday devices like phones and pads trains that expectation and establish screen locks as a tight security feature. So something should be done instantly, even if it is a short living hack that will be overcome by a better design elsewhere. ** Summary changed: - screen doesn't lock when panel menu is open + screen doesn't lock when some menu is open -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-screensaver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/49579 Title: screen doesn't lock when some menu is open To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-screensaver/+bug/49579/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gthumb Using 2.11.3, i cannot move or copy files by drag and drop to the file tree. This is totally in broken in several stages: First, a selection of thumbnails gets deselecten when starting a drag operation in favor of the dragged one.

Second, only the draged one sticks to the mouse pointer shown as one full thumbnail, making it very hard to target a folder in the directory tree pane.

If the user decided to do something after the launch click, the launched application's window should open behind the currently focussed window. This behavior can be seen at Windows XP too for example.

[Bug 577215] [NEW] gnome-display-properties needs manual override
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center gnome-display-properties should have a manual override for display settings. There are now several display connection systems and thousands of misbehaving devices in the wild, so the "normal user" must have a chance to get his display working well if autodetection fails. I experience this every some days, and I don't expect that getting better. While VGA interfaces will not die out that fast, more DisplayPort and HDMI devices come to the market, and more small and embedded systems with non-mainstream video adapters are used. That keeps the chance of failure high. On Windows for example, the user expects the device manufacturer to deliver apropriate drivers. Linux cannot rely on this. If that allways need fallback to xorg.conf or xrandr tweaking, many users will consider the OS just broken. ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gnome-display-properties needs manual override https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/577215 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 572690] [NEW] launched applications steal focus
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-panel If an application is launched via a gnome panel launcher or the gnome main menu, its main window gains focus if opened, even if the panel lost the focus meanwhile. For example... What I do: Editing on gedit, click on a Firefox launcher, then continue to edit. What happens: When Firefox finally opens, it appears in front and steals the focus from gedit. What should happen: Firefox window should open behind gedit silently. This also has light security implications, someone could enter login data to firefox addressfield and thus google for example.

[Bug 569353] [NEW] Merge should skip identical files only
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus I usually use "merge all", then "skip all" to update/backup/resyncronize a copy of a folder. However, if for example a previous copy was interrupted, a partially done file is left. After doing merge with skip, this file don't gets overwritten, so the two directorys stay out of sync. So the only way to do a secure backup is to "replace all", or even better then delete & recopy the folder to remove source deleted files also. This either means copy all files again. I think a "skip all unchanged files" mode, or even "synchronize" mode (that deletes destination files) would be very useful.
