[Bug 203877] Re: Hardy: gconf-editor changed settings ignored by system
I don't think this is a bug as such just a confusing and obscure method of configuring Ubuntu. To get VLC to play DVDs by default I followed the advice given at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=733559 #8 Step 1 is to set VLC as the default DVD player via: $ sudo gedit /ect/gnome/defaults.list And changing the line x-content/video-dvd=totem.desktop to x-content/video-dvd=vlc.desktop Step 2 is ensuring that VLC starts with menus enables this is done via editing two files first $ sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/vlc.desktop and changing exec=%U to exec=%m then sudo gedit /usr/share/app-install/desktop/vlc.desktop and changing exec=%U to exec=%m in this file as well. You can now go to Nautilus > Edit >Preferences>Media and select Open VLC media player for DVD Video -- Hardy: gconf-editor changed settings ignored by system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/203877 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 203877] Re: Hardy: gconf-editor changed settings ignored by system
Having exactly the same problem with Hardy Heron Alpha 6. After launching conf-editor and then navigating to the key /desktop/gnome/volume_manager/autoplay_dvd_command then setting value to vlc %m had no effect. Totem remains the default player. I think this might be because Nautilus is over riding these settings. In Nautilus under Edit > Preferences > Media > DVD Video the only media player option available is Totem. This is very frustrating as DVDs don't play properly in Totem as thier is no Menu navigation and only the first VOB is played. -- Hardy: gconf-editor changed settings ignored by system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/203877 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gconf-editor in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 188428] Re: gedit crashed with SIGSEGV in g_slice_alloc()
Latest Hardy Heron Kernel Linux 2.6.24-5 Generic Gnome 2.21.90 gedit 2.21.1-Oubunttu2 Hi not sure if this is the same bug as only gedit appears to be crashing. Should I report a seperate bug? When I changed /desktop/gnome/interface/file_chooser_backend key value to gnome-vfs the crash still occured. However on installing gvfs-dbgsym libglib2.0-0-dbgsym libgtk2.0-0-dbgsym the crashes appear to have stoped. However on running $sudo gedit I get this error message. $ sudo gedit [sudo] password for visitor: ALSA lib control.c:909:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL front:0 ALSA lib control.c:909:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL front:0 ** (gedit:9998): CRITICAL **: Error opening file: No such file or directory ** (gedit:9998): CRITICAL **: Error opening file: No such file or directory gedit still works though.
