[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1653828] [NEW] Grammatical mistake in package description
Public bug reported:
This is an excerpt from the description of the package:
The use of this driver is discouraged if your hw is new enough (ca.
2007 and newer). You can try uninstalling this driver and let the
server use it's builtin modesetting driver instead.
Obviously, "it's" should be "its"; "builtin" also should be "built-in",
and "hw" probably should be all caps ("HW").

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1273291] Re: Copying doesn't work in Gmail if "Show position of pointer when the Control key is pressed" option is turned on
The bug does not appear under Chromium. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1273291 Title: Copying doesn't work in Gmail if "Show position of pointer when the Control key is pressed" option is turned on Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Copying via the Ctrl+C shortcut doesn't work in Gmail when said option is turned on. To be precise: the copying (filling the clipboard) action is probably functional, but when I press Ctrl, the selection highlight disappears, so no text is copied. Pasting via Ctrl+V works, but that does not require highlighting. The problem is actually not only with Gmail. If I highlight a word in Firefox (say, on this page), and press Ctrl, the highlight remains, but turns grey, instead of the usual green color, as if the window had lost the focus. When I release the Ctrl key, the green color is restored. Also, in this scenario (provided I also press C, of course), the highlighted text IS copied to the clipboard. Finally, other applications, like LibreOffice or GEdit do not exhibit any of the problems described above. I am using Linux Mint 16, Cinnamon, 64bit. Firefox is at version 26.0 (i.e. the official Linux Mint version). This problem most likely affects Ubuntu as well. To reproduce problem 2: 1. Load a page in Firefox. 2. Highlight a word. 3. Push down Ctrl do not release it yet. 4. Observe that the highlight has become grey. 5. Press C. 6. Release the Ctrl key. 7. Observe that the highlight is green again. 8. Paste the contents of the clipboard to somewhere, and observe that the word you highlighted in Firefox is copied successfully. To reproduce problem 1: 1. Load Gmail in Firefox. 2. Click on 'Compose'. 3. Write a few words, highlight one of them. 3. Push down Ctrl do not release it yet. 4. Observe that the highlight has disappeared. 5. Press C. 6. Release the Ctrl key. 7. Press Ctrl+V, and observe that nothing gets copied (or only the previous contents of the clipboard, if it wasn't empty).

Public bug reported: I was watching the videos here: http://spoonyexperiment.com/2012/08/11/ultima-9-ascension-finale/ , when the screen suddenly (albeit gradually) turned off. Apparently the number of minutes specified in the Brighness and Lock settings panel had elapsed, so to save power Ubuntu turned off the screen. The problem is: watching a video IS an activity.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 730155] Re: ibus in Kubuntu uses the GTK gui, icons missing

(I used uim before.) I have configured it via im-switch. However, even though I am using KDE, the GTK panel applet is used. This can be seen from two things: 1. the icons in the right-click menu are replaced with the generic "no icon" icon (see screenshot); 2. the Preferences menu item brings up the GTK dialog, which is ugly, since it is not even using the theme set up in System Settings. When I first started the ibus daemon from the command line, (yet without im-switch,) both the QT and the GTK applet were started. What should happen: Under KDE, the QT applet should be started.

Currently the user is capable of selecting a locale, and that locale will determine how dates are displayed, the first day of the week, etc. However, it is not possible to override any of these choices -- it's a 'take it or leave it' decision. There are several problems with that: 1. If the system language is English, and I set the RF to Hungarian, the names of months, days will be Hungarian, while the rest of the interface remains English, which is confusing. 2.

That may be a problem for developers (or for users who download scripts from a developer's page, which, with smartphones, Calibre, etc., is not so uncommon as someone might think). The settings for the GUI and the command line should be distinct. 3. Very often one would like to change just one setting (A4 paper size for printing, Monday as the first day of the week, etc.), which is currently not possible.

However, the fix only added the Regional Formats tab, and ignored part of the problem of the reporter: "it's impossible to configure a system that uses English GUI strings and the rest in native format."
