Here I typed Cltr+A to  Select All in the Yelp window and blindly tried
to move the selected content with the mouse.

Indeed, the documentation is there but it appears all white in the Yelp
window.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1914077] [NEW] Add Greek langpack to LibreOffice snap package

[Simos Xenitellis ]

Public bug reported:

Currently, the Libreoffice snap package supports the following UI
languages:

English (USA)
Catalan
Chinese (Traditional)
French (France)
German
Hungarian
Italian
Japanese
Polish
Portuguese (both Portugal and Brazil)
Russian
Spanish (Spain)
Turkish

Greek is spoken by 11.1m people, which is a similar number for Catalan and 
Hundarian.
In the Greek Public Service (for example, the judicial system), there are many 
Ubuntu laptops with no upgrade path for the latest version of LibreOffice.

Can you please add Greek to the list?

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1285444] Re: Login Successful, Desktop Never Loads

[Simos Xenitellis ]

This bug report is from 2014.

I get this issue (return almost immediately to the login screen) in Ubuntu 
20.04 Beta with the 5.4.0-21 kernel. 
But with the immediate previous kernel, 5.4.0-18 works and I get a desktop 
session.

Anyone who found an existing report on such an issue?

  Login Successful, Desktop Never Loads

Status in at-spi2-core package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Here is what I encounter
  1. Boot computer, boot proceeds normally
  2. Reach standard Ubuntu login screen, nothing seems to be amiss
  3. Enter user name and password
  4. Login disappears, just see the pink "Ubuntu 14.04" background

  The desktop never loads, not even after ~30 minutes. The launcher
  never appears, and the Desktop background never changes to the user-
  configured background.

  Other features:
  * Cursor works fine, it can be moved around the screen
  * No error messages pop up
  * ALT+F1 etc. can be used to switch to different TTYs; all files on the 
system appear to be intact
  * Print screen button works (I will upload a screen shot when I get a chance 
to copy it onto a USB drive)
  * Hitting power button pops up a window prompting the user to decide whether 
to shut down
  * CTRL+ALT+DELETE prompts the user to log out
  * Desktop does not load on any user accounts, including the guest account

  HOW TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Install LibreOffice snap ('nonfree' tag) from Ubuntu Software.
  2. Click on the 'Launch' button once you have it installed.

  WHAT IS EXPECTED: 
  It should launch the LibreOffice wizard instead of any of Writer, Calc, etc.

  WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS: 
  It launches LibreOffice Database.

  
  WHY THIS HAPPENS?

  Ubuntu Software probably picks the first listed command

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1661590] Re: GNOME Software only supports running one application from a snap

[Simos Xenitellis ]

Hi!

On Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) I enabled the `xenial-proposed` repository and
upgrade `gnome-software`.

$ apt policy gnome-software
gnome-software:
  Installed: 3.20.5-0ubuntu0.16.04.10
  Candidate: 3.20.5-0ubuntu0.16.04.10
  Version table:
 *** 3.20.5-0ubuntu0.16.04.10 400
400 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-proposed/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
 3.20.5-0ubuntu0.16.04.8 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages
 3.20.1+git20160420.1.ca63436.ubuntu-xenial-0ubuntu2 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages

I launched `gnome-software` and located the `libreoffice` snap package.
I clicked on the Launch button.

WHAT HAPPENED: LibreOffice Base was launched (the wizard for Base to open a 
database).
When I do 'snap info libreoffice', libreoffice.base is the first in the list.

WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN: 
It should launch `libreoffice` instead.

Bug description:
  HOW TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Install LibreOffice snap ('nonfree' tag) from Ubuntu Software.
  2. Click on the 'Launch' button once you have it installed.

  WHAT IS EXPECTED: 
  It should launch the LibreOffice wizard instead of any of Writer, Calc, etc.

  WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS: 
  It launches LibreOffice Database.

  
  WHY THIS HAPPENS?

  Ubuntu Software probably picks the first listed command
  (libreoffice.base), as shown in

  $ snap info libreoffice
  name:  libreoffice

and creation of spreadsheets, slideshows and databases"

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1681513] Re: Ubuntu 17.04/17.10: New feature in NetworkManager stops several WiFi adapters from working (MAC Address Randomization issue)

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@Marcos:

Thanks for reporting that the same issue exists in current 17.10.
There has been a change in the default settings in NetworkManager in upstream
so that the MAC address randomization is not enabled by default.
Currently, Ubuntu 17.10 (daily) has NetworkManager 1.4.4.
I suppose it will get upgraded to 1.6.2 
(https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager)
which most probably has the new change.

@aleandro: Most probably something else is wrong with your case. 
If you can connect for a bit and soon you get disconnected, then definitely 
something else is the problem.
Can you file another report for your case?
You can do that by running in a terminal the command: 

ubuntu-bug network-manager

and then follow the instructions.

Bug description:
  According to 
  
https://blogs.gnome.org/thaller/2016/08/26/mac-address-spoofing-in-networkmanager-1-4-0/
  there is a new privacy feature in the new version of NetworkManager.
  This privacy feature can cause some USB WiFi adapters to stop working
  while they used to work with older versions of NetworkManager (Ubuntu 16.10 
or older).

  The purpose of this privacy feature is to get your computer to report a new 
random MAC address whenever you connect to a WiFi network.
  This privacy feature is especially useful when you connect to public WiFi 
networks, so that the operators cannot identify you when you connect multiple 
times.

  The downside of this privacy feature is that some USB WiFi adapters misbehave 
when NetworkManager tries to change their MAC address repeatedly. 
  The result is that those USB WiFi adapters cannot connect anymore to the WiFi 
 network.

  Original report follows:

  My Panda USB wi-fi adapter works just fine on 16.10, but when I try to
  connect to my wi-fi router in 17.04, GNOME network manager reports
  "Connection failed." I did some tinkering, and noticed that my MAC
  address for my wifi adapter, according to GNOME, is DIFFERENT every
  time I make it forget my wifi settings and try to reconnect. Weird,
  right? Any leads on a possible fix or work-around?

  I'm running the latest beta of Ubuntu GNOME 17.04, kernel
  4.10.0-19-generic, GNOME 3.24.0.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1226962] Re: Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout

[Simos Xenitellis ]

** Description changed:

- New keyboard layout changer in Ubuntu 13.10 introduce  old-new bug. Any 
system or application hotkey witch use char (for example: ctrl+alt+t for 
terminal or ctrl+t for new tab in browser) become unfunctional when selected 
non-latin keyboard layout.
- Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly.
+ Keyboard shortcuts are key combinations like Alt+F (usually opens the
+ File menu) and Ctrl+O (usually opens the File→Open... dialog box).
  
- Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system
- parameters->keyboard->hotkeys->windows works perfect with any keyboard
- layout.
+ There is an issue with non-latin keyboard layouts that the keys under F or O 
(for Alt+F and Ctrl+O respectively) would correspond to some other character.
+ What should happen then? There is some smart functionality (at least in the 
GTK+ library) that when we press a shortcut, it will try to make Alt+F or 
Ctrl+O work, even if the active keyboard layout is not English.
  
- Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non-
- latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead of
- ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with
- english layout.  If you use english and two different non-latin layouts
- this workaround helps only with one of them.
+ For this smart functionality to work, it requires us to have as first 
keyboard layout the English (en) layout. Then, GTK+ will be able to
+ check whether the shortcut makes sense for English, and if so, will run it.
+ All that even if the active layout is Greek or Russian or something else. 
  
+ This report has over 300 comments and these comments include all sort of 
corner cases that indeed shortcuts do not work. In general, shortcuts work,
+ but in specific cases there are issues that need to be fixed.
  
- Dear Ubuntu users and developers!

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@nrbrtx: As noted in #329, the shortcuts for Super+A/F/M/C/V indeed do
not work on Unity.

However, the shortcuts for Super+S/W actually work. This means that the
functionality is there to make Super+A/F/M/C/V work as well. See the
screenshot at #329 that demonstrates that Russian is OK for Super+S/W.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1226962] Re: Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@dror-sign: I have tested with Ctrl+O (File→Open...). 
Indeed, when they keyboard layout is in Hebrew, Ctrl+O in Libreoffice does not 
work.
However, Ctrl+O in LibreOffice for at least Greek and Russian works.

Therefore, this inability for Ctrl+... shortcuts not working in
LibreOffice for Hebrew is an issue by itself, that is specific to Hebrew
(and needs a new report that is specific to Hebrew and other layouts
that are affected in the same way).

You are supposed to have as primary keyboard layout the English (En)

  New keyboard layout changer in Ubuntu 13.10 introduce  old-new bug. Any 
system or application hotkey witch use char (for example: ctrl+alt+t for 
terminal or ctrl+t for new tab in browser) become unfunctional when selected 
non-latin keyboard layout.
  Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly.

  Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system
  parameters->keyboard->hotkeys->windows works perfect with any keyboard
  layout.

  Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non-
  latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead
  of ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with
  english layout.  If you use english and two different non-latin
  layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.


  Dear Ubuntu users and developers! 
  Please include the following information to your comment about non-latin 
shortcuts problems:
  1. What Ubuntu version do you have (Ubuntu 13.10, Ubuntu 13.10 GNOME, Ubuntu 
14.04, Ubuntu 14.04 GNOME and so on), upgraded (describe version) or clean 
installed
  2. What keyboard layout do you have
  3. What shortcut for keyboard layout switching do you use 
  4. On which session you have problems - that is one from Unity, GNOME Shell, 
GNOME FlashBack/Fallback (Metacity), GNOME FlashBack/Fallback (Compiz)
  5. With which program and its version and origin (Ubuntu repositories, PPA, 
non-deb binary package from some website) you have problems.

  By providing this information you can make bug-fixing much simpler and
  may be faster.

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@xeron-oskom: Indeed, Super+A/F/M/C/V are not adapted and do not currently work 
with Greek either. 
However, what is working, are those shortcuts that I show in my screenshot 
(Super+W, Super+S).

Here is a screenshot that shows that when you switch to Russian keyboard
layout, the Unity shortcuts for Super+W and Super+S are adapted
automatically for Russian.

The way that Super+W and Super+S work, makes me believe that these are not 
hard-coded but dynamic.
Here is relevant code

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@nazar-pc: It is very important to care and make an effort to figure out what 
is going on.
Your case is about Java apps, which is a distinctive group of GUI programs. 
I am not aware of functionality that XIM ('setxkbmap') would offer the feature 
to have working shortcuts with non-English layouts, unless it is some hack that 
is specific to the Java app.

For your case, I highly recommend for you to create a new bug report under 
"java-common",
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/java-common
with a title like "Shortcuts/hotkeys not working when non-latin layout is 
active",
and describe in detail the problem and add your workaround using "setxkbmap".

Then, post the URL of the report here so that those that are interested, can 
subscribe as well.
I'll then look to find the appropriate upstream project and link there.

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@xeron-oskom: The Unity 7 shortcuts are adapted accordingly when the keyboard 
layout is switched to Greek. See screenshot below. 
When you keep pressed the Win key, you get that information text with all 
shortcuts. 

Admittedly, I just checked that a few shortcuts are not adapted for Greek so 
they require specific bug reports. However, the general functionality is there.
Can you check what is shown in my screenshot, but for Russian?

This bug report has reached 325 comments. Any developer would struggle
to make sense as it is now.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1226962] Re: Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@nazar-pc: Java GUI apps on Linux is a special case. Firstly, they are
no such apps pre-installed, so it is somewhat a non-Ubuntu problem.

Gedit is written in the C programming language and is part of the core
GNOME apps. It is well-support and shortcuts work. It has been working
for 10+ years, since the multi-layout shortcut support was added to
GTK+.

This ability to use shortcuts even when the active layout was not
English, was added to GTK+ (GNOME) at around 2005, perhaps earlier. It
was the first UI toolkit to have such support for shortcuts when the
active layout was not English. Qt did not have it for a long long time
(has it been added there?).

I am inclined to close this report in a few days if we do not get a 
reproducible case of shortcuts not working.
At the same time, I'll open (if they do not exist) individual reports regarding 
shortcuts in Java GUI apps and other toolkits that do not have that support.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1226962] Re: Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout

[Simos Xenitellis ]

I think this report needs to clear up. The title and the description
should get an update.

I am using stock Ubuntu 16.04.2 (i.e. Unity 7) and I have configured two
keyboard layouts, EN, GR.

I start gedit and I press the Ctrl+S (Save) hotkey. 
In both cases (Layouts: EN (English), GR (Greek)), the Save dialog box appears.
Similarly, I tested with Firefox, Chrome and Chromium and it worked as well 
(Ctrl+τ to open a new tab).

Therefore, it is working for me at least for these apps.

Is there anyone that cannot get this to work on Ubuntu 16.04?
If so, tell me what keyboard layouts you have enabled. 
Note that the first keyboard layout MUST be "En" (English).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1681513] Re: Ubuntu 17.04: New privacy feature in NetworkManager stops some WiFi adapters from working (mac address randomization)

[Simos Xenitellis ]

@Don Cady:

The source of the problem is the Linux kernel driver for the specific
WiFi adapter or perhaps the firmware of the WiFi adapter.

In most of the drivers, they have implemented the facility to change (by 
software) the MAC address.
There are even tools to change the MAC address, like "macchanger". Or, you can 
even use "ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55". Or, you can change it 
with NetworkManager, a facility available for many years already.

A WiFi card can support many other interesting features, including "AP
Mode" (make your Ubuntu act like an Access Point), and "Monitor" mode
(using those Aircrack tools). However, it takes effort to reverse-
engineer AP Mode or Monitor mode, so many adapters do not support these
features. It is much more common in USB adapters not to have full
support for these features, and in some cases it is a deficiency in the
firmware (firmware files: /lib/firmware/, and nothing can be done about
it).

It is not clear how widespread is the problem. If you are reporting,
please include which kernel driver is used for the WiFi and also what
firmware is loaded.

@wolfy1339:
I think the MS Surface Pro has an (internal) USB WiFi card and uses the kernel 
driver "mwifiex_usb". Have a look in "lsmod".

  Ubuntu 17.04: New privacy feature in NetworkManager stops some WiFi
  adapters from working (mac address randomization)

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  According to 
  
https://blogs.gnome.org/thaller/2016/08/26/mac-address-spoofing-in-networkmanager-1-4-0/
  there is a new privacy feature in the new version of NetworkManager.
  This privacy feature can cause some USB WiFi adapters to stop working
  while they used to work with older versions of NetworkManager (Ubuntu 16.10 
or older).

  The purpose of this privacy feature is to get your computer to report a new 
random MAC address whenever you connect to a WiFi network.
  This privacy feature is especially useful when you connect to public WiFi 
networks, so that the operators cannot identify you when you connect multiple 
times.

  The downside of this privacy feature is that some USB WiFi adapters misbehave 
when NetworkManager tries to change their MAC address repeatedly. 
  The result is that those USB WiFi adapters cannot connect anymore to the WiFi 
 network.

  Original report follows:

  My Panda USB wi-fi adapter works just fine on 16.10, but when I try to
  connect to my wi-fi router in 17.04, GNOME network manager reports
  "Connection failed." I did some tinkering, and noticed that my MAC
  address for my wifi adapter, according to GNOME, is DIFFERENT every

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1681513] Re: Ubuntu 17.04: New privacy feature in NetworkManager stops some USB WiFi adapters from working (mac address randomization)

[Simos Xenitellis ]

Jesse, I do not have 17.04 so I cannot test these myself. You guys could
help:

At https://blogs.gnome.org/thaller/2016/08/26/mac-address-spoofing-in-
networkmanager-1-4-0/ it mentions that:

Update-2017-01-25: with 1.6 release and newer, the default value changed
from “permanent” to “preserve” [commit],[bug].

The "preserve" default value means that NM will not attempt to change the MAC 
address upon activation. 
I just checked the source of "network-manager" on 17.04 (using LXD with 17.04 
container) and it goes not have this update.

Could you please check in NetworkManager to see what is the default value for
“ethernet.cloned-mac-address” and “wifi.cloned-mac-address”, on a Ubuntu 17.04 
installation?

I think that "nmcli device show" might show it. If not, try somehow to
figure out the default.

  Ubuntu 17.04: New privacy feature in NetworkManager stops some USB
  WiFi adapters from working (mac address randomization)

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  According to 
  
https://blogs.gnome.org/thaller/2016/08/26/mac-address-spoofing-in-networkmanager-1-4-0/
  there is a new privacy feature in the new version of NetworkManager.
  This privacy feature can cause some USB WiFi adapters to stop working
  while they used to work with older versions of NetworkManager (Ubuntu 16.10 
or older).

  The purpose of this privacy feature is to get your computer to report a new 
random MAC address whenever you connect to a WiFi network.
  This privacy feature is especially useful when you connect to public WiFi 
networks, so that the operators cannot identify you when you connect multiple 
times.

  The downside of this privacy feature is that some USB WiFi adapters misbehave 
when NetworkManager tries to change their MAC address repeatedly. 
  The result is that those USB WiFi adapters cannot connect anymore to the WiFi 
 network.

  Original report follows:

  My Panda USB wi-fi adapter works just fine on 16.10, but when I try to
  connect to my wi-fi router in 17.04, GNOME network manager reports
  "Connection failed." I did some tinkering, and noticed that my MAC
  address for my wifi adapter, according to GNOME, is DIFFERENT every
  time I make it forget my wifi settings and try to reconnect. Weird,
  right? Any leads on a possible fix or work-around?

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1661590] Re: GNOME Software only supports running one application from a snap

[Simos Xenitellis ]

A note here that when you run "snap info libreoffice", the order of the
commands actually changes every time you run it. I suppose that snapd
does not have the order of the commands as given in snapcraft.yaml.
That's what I get with snap 2.12

A workaround could be for Ubuntu Software to pick the shorter filename
(for LibreOffice, that would be "libreoffice", the wizard, which is what
is expected to run).

Bug description:
  HOW TO REPRODUCE:

  1. Install LibreOffice snap ('nonfree' tag) from Ubuntu Software.
  2. Click on the 'Launch' button once you have it installed.

  WHAT IS EXPECTED: 
  It should launch the LibreOffice wizard instead of any of Writer, Calc, etc.

  WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS: 
  It launches LibreOffice Database.

  
  WHY THIS HAPPENS?

  Ubuntu Software probably picks the first listed command
  (libreoffice.base), as shown in

  $ snap info libreoffice

  The order in snapcraft.yaml is different, so probably Snapcraft is changing 
the order (it might assume that 'libreoffice' is 'libreoffice.libreoffice', so 
it puts it further down.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1226962] Re: Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout

[Simos Xenitellis]

See http://www.whizzy.org/2015/09/big-bug-bonanza-16-04-lts/ for a sprint
to fix issues in Ubuntu (targeting 16.04).
Since there are patches for this and these patches work, it is important to
get the issue fixed during the sprint.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1445358] Re: Pulseaudio fails to run when system's language is in Greek

[Simos Xenitellis]

The relevant message in /var/log/syslog is:

Apr 20 14:03:45 user-laptop pulseaudio[1661]: [pulseaudio] module.c:
Failed to load module module-alsa-card (argument: device_id=0 name
=pci-_00_1b.0 card_name=alsa_card.pci-_00_1b.0
namereg_fail=false tsched=ναι fixed_latency_range=όχι ignore_dB=όχι
deferred_volume=ναι use_ucm=ναι card_properties=module-udev-
detect.discovered=1): initialization failed.

What is says here is that insmod (or similar) was called with
parameters like tsched=ναι, and failed.

git blame says:
d806b197 src/pulsecore/core-util.h (poljar (Damir Jelić) 2013-06-27 19:28:09

+0200  93) return b ? _(yes) : _(no);

which means that about a year ago a change was made to make yes/no
localisable.

A quick fix is to make pa_yes_no() non-localisable again.

** Patch added: Make pa_yes_no() non-localisable.

Title:
  Pulseaudio fails to run when system's language is in Greek

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Changing the System Language in Greek resulted in the corruption of
  the sound in the entire system. This happened when the latest updates
  applied and after a reboot.

  I have attempted a new installation in Greek getting the latest ISO
  image and the problem exists there as well.

  If I go back (turn the system) to the English Language and reboot the
  problem disappears.

  I have also tested another Language (Russian Localization) but the
  problem does not occur.

  How to reproduce: 
  Apply the latest updates and install the Greek language packages 
(language-pack-el , language-pack-el-base). 
  Choose Greek as the system's language and reboot.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1244548] Re: Keyboard shortcut for changing keyboard layout does not work on lock screen

[Simos Xenitellis]

@minniegaliev-r: It comes out as obnoxious to post a comment like Why 
importance only medium?. 
It should have been a complete statement as in: 

I think the importance for this report should be raised to High. The
reason is that if you get locked out in the screensaver while your
current keyboard layout is not English, then you are stuck badly. If you
do not have a mouse to click-switch to English, you have no other option
than to hard-reboot your computer ;-'( This is a big issue.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1226962] Re: Hotkeys not functional in non-latin keyboard layout in 13.10

[Simos Xenitellis]

A bit of essential fact-checking:

X.Org/XKB consider different the shortcuts like Ctrl+T (latin t) and
Ctrl+Τ (greek τ) and so on. Because they are different characters.
Obviously.

It is because of gtk+ (with gtk+ input method) that shortcuts like
Ctrl+Τ (greek τ) work just like Ctrl+T (latin t). This has been really
amazing and usable, and we all like it. It's a gtk+ feature (if you use
the gtk+ input method), and when we move to different toolkits/input
methods, we need to make an effort to replicate the functionality.

Apart from an amazing feature, it is also a hack. It makes a mess to
those that use unconventional layouts like dvorak. Ok, those are a
minority compared to us...

In this report, the source of the issue is either not using the gtk+
input method in gtk+ apps, or non-gtk+ apps (which obviously do not use
the gtk+ input method). Also, there might be cases (I am speculating)
that keyboard filtering might mess up as well.

If you want to figure out whether the gtk+ input method is actually
working, you can type Ctrl+Shift+u (latin 'u'), then type aa and then
press spacebar. If you get ª, then the gtk+ input method is working for
you.

non-latin keyboard layout.
  Hotkeys with F1-12, numbers and other non-character buttons works perfectly.

  Window manager hotkeys not affected by this bug. All hotkeys in system
  parameters-keyboard-hotkeys-windows works perfect with any keyboard
  layout.

  Workaround for some system hotkeys and two layouts (english and non-
  latin): rebind all hotkeys in your local layout. For example instead
  of ctrl+alt+t use ctrl+alt+τ (greek tau). That hotkey still work with
  english layout.  If you use english and two different non-latin
  layouts this workaround helps only with one of them.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1246583] Re: All hotkeys of LibreOffice don't work in non-English keyboard layout [ubuntu 13.10]

[Simos Xenitellis]

I am running 13.10 with all updates applied. I have enabled English and Greek.
The LibreOffice shortcuts such as Alt+F (File menu) does not work either for 
English, neither for Greek.

Can someone verify whether the shortcuts work for English in LibreOffice?
Because if they do not work in English either, then the problem is wider.

(if someone has enable just a single keyboard layout, does that make a
difference?)

Title:
  All hotkeys of LibreOffice don't work in non-English keyboard layout
  [ubuntu 13.10]

Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hotkeys (Ctrl+b, Ctrl+s etc) in LibreOffice are language dependent and
  work in English language only. While writing in any other language
  i.e. any Cyrillic, it's impossible to use hotkeys, they just don't do
  anything. Switching to English input language enable hotkeys once
  again. This is very frustrating as user needs to switch language to
  save document, to make it bold, or italic, etc.

  This was not experienced in Ubuntu 13.04.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. System Settings  Text Entry.
  2. Add another keyboard layout beside English [In my case it is Bengali 
(Probhat)] 
  3. Now launch Writer.
  4. Switch the keyboard layout from English (US) to Bengali (Probhat) by 
pressing Ctrl+Space.
  5. Press Ctrl+B to change font weight to bold.

  Error: 
  Font weight does not get changed.

  Expected: 
  Font weight should change to bold.

  Note:
  none other system hotkeys work as expected. I.e. Ctrl+s to save, or Ctrl+b to 
subscript, or Ctrl+i to italic etc.

  Workaround: 
  The only way is to -
  1. change the keyboard layout to English
  2. then press desired hotkey
  3. then switch keyboard layout back to Bengali.

  The issue is critical, as it make writer very slow for keyboard-only
  typing.

I also want to add https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60126 to
this report but cannot figure it out. If someone can figure it out,
please add it.

From a comment above: 
The problem with both the LibreOffice and Latex generated PDF files seems to be
that they have a very small or zero volume /Rect field. The annotations in the
attached test case are in fact there. There is a very small area where hovering
the mouse shows the first comment.

Additionally, the annotations do not contain a /Popup field, which means
clicking them does nothing.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1185489] Re: soundcloud will not play in chromium on ubuntu 13.04

[Simos Xenitellis]

UPDATE: Apparently Chromium does not close completely when you close the 
browser window. 
After a restart, Soundcloud with Chromium 25.0.1364.160, and Flash 11.7.700.203 
works fine.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1173217] Re: Screen edges are in the middle of the screen! AMD Radeon HD7570M

[Simos Xenitellis]

I get screen corruption and general problems as well.
Tried both free and proprietary drivers, 12.04.2 and 13.04.

The nasty workaround for me is to connect an external HDMI monitor, which helps 
/fix/ the problem.
When Ubuntu tries to clone the laptop screen, this ends up fixing the screen 
corruption, when using the fglrx driver (For both the HDMI display and the 
laptop screen). I can then disconnet the HDMI display and the laptop screen 
continues to work well.
When I use the radeon (free) driver, the HDMI display works find, however the 
laptop screen shows artifacts (either 'split' screen or flickering).

Since both the free and proprietary drivers exhibit similar behaviour, it does 
look like a common kernel issue.
Will try newer kernels.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1076298] Re: fglrx proprietary driver installation- Samsung 535U4C

[Simos Xenitellis]

@Adam: I think this bug report is duplicate of
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1123024

I tried 13.04 with kernel 3.9.0-raring (from mainline PPA) and the problem 
persisted.
I then tried Ubuntu 13.10 Daily ISO (has kernel 3.9.0.x) with a LiveUSB and it 
booted just fine. This is with the radeon (free) driver.
I assume that fglrx should work as well.

[Simos Xenitellis]

Which versions of fglrx did you try? I tried with AMD Catalyst 13.4
(released a few days ago).

I manage to get into Unity, however the screen is not usable; there is
uniform corruption all over the display. I can distinguish though the
Launchpad and the indicators.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1094872] Re: Installation information cause letter format instead of DIN A4

[Simos Xenitellis]

We (Ubuntu-gr - Greece) are facing an issue that we believe is related
to the above change in the code.

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1158750

Specifically, what happens is that currently the code sets (by mistake)
the locale to 'el_GR' instead of 'el_GR.UTF-8' (or 'el_GR.utf8').

The default for a 'el_GR' locale (without .utf8) is to use the old 8-bit 
deprecated encodings, which cause severe issues in a 13.04 installation. For 
example, LibreOffice simply refuses to start!
The reason is that Greek text for Mon/Tue/Wed/Thu/etc that come from the Greek 
locale, are being read in the deprecated ISO-8859-7 encoding.

We are trying to test if this issue exists with other locales as well,
and also how to solve. It appears that a small code addition (adding '.utf8') 
should suffice.

If you have any input, it would be helpful to get this resolved quickly.

Bug description:
  Dear ladies and gentlemen,

  I switched to Debian unstable after problems with TeXLive installations 
introduce about Oneiric.
  As experienced Unix administrator (AIX and RedHat certified) I was astonished 
not to be able
  to solve the problem.
  After several attempts I found out that my choices given to the installer:
 English - Berlin timezone - German eliminate deadkeys
  yield without any reason to the assumption that the paper format is letter.
  E.g. scientists in Germany allways use English language and Berlin time (i.e. 
the real place being Germay),
  which should clearly qualify to DIN A4 choice, so the choice for 
/etc/papersize (letter) should be altered
  to a4 under these (and similar) selections.
  The behaviour is there as already stated since Oneiric - before it worked as 
expected -
  and is present in the latest flavour.
  I currently work under Xubuntu 12.10 but have several installations 
(including Ubuntu 12.10
  [which is really unstable and Unity still not configurable] and Debian Wheezy 
[testing,
  the latter working out of the box without changing /etc/papersize manually]).
  As this bug is quite clear I hope you can fix it before 13.04 - this bug is 
really mean as the
  real problem is hidden for the user and even when trying to change problems 
relvealed in
  TeXLive installation relying on the wrong set of papersize  the TeXLive 
scripts for that purpose
  are not working (Debian related).
  But this is _NOT_ a TeXLive problem - when in Germany (Berlin time) and 
setting English
  (i.e. /etc/default/locale  being: LANG=en_US.UTF-8), papersize should be a4 
and NOT letter.
  Otherwise one should ask for papersize seperately.
  If other data is needed (not think so - but anyway) please contact me:
 jochen.m.br...@gmx.de

  Many thanks in advance for your help!

  JMB

  P.S.: If I missed something - like an expert mode of the installer - please 
inform me.
 But as unexperienced users may have similar selections the problem should 
be fixed anyway.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1069186] Re: problem with backlight

[Simos Xenitellis]

@m-sigalas86: I notice that you are not using fglrx (does not support
your Evergreen graphics card). It's good.

@Rafał: I have tried that line and the whole screen highlights,
returning to the original brightness. I cannot change the default
brightness. I use 12.10 on the AMD 6230.

  Dear root owning overlords,

  When using grep recursively I only get local results:

  grep -R fish_t  /home/noob/fish_game/*

  /home/noob/fish_game/fish.h: struct fish_t {
  /home/noob/fish_game/fish.c: struct fish_t eric_the_ fish;

  or worse:

  grep -R shark_t  /home/noob/fish_game/*

  /home/noob/fish_game/fish.h: struct shark_t {
  /home/noob/fish_game/fish.c: struct shark_t_t mark_sw;

  I declare this a bug for two reasons:

  1. The output is boring.
  2. The terminal has more than 2 lines!!!  It's an unefficient use of my 
screenspace.

  I believe the reason for this is that the grep command only searches
  locally for things I am actually looking for, I kind of expect the
  results I get from my codebase and as such it removes any sense of
  mystery or something new and exciting to spice up my dull geek
  existence. That's boring, grep -R should also search amazon, so I get
  more exciting results such as:

  Please can you change the grep warez to have this feature, and just

  erm, have root, so it should be easy for you to do :-)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1037180] [NEW] GSD should have an option to show extra keyboard layouts

[Simos Xenitellis]

Public bug reported:

xkeyboard-config has been remodelled and non-basic keyboard layouts have
been moved to the 'extra' group.

Ubuntu does not offer a way through the GUI to enable the extra group
for those users that need the special keyboard layouts.

How to replicate: 
1. Click on System settings/Keyboard, then Layout Settings, then click on the 
[+] button to add a new layout.
2. Try to find the Avestan keyboard layout. Although it was added last year to 
xkeyboard-config, it is not shown in the list.

How to fix manually: 
1. Start 'dconf-editor' (requires installation) and navigate to 
'/org/gnome/libgnomekbd/desktop/'
2. Find 'load-extra-items' and enable it.
3. Now the Keyboard layout list shows all keyboard layouts, including Avestan.

What should be done:
- There should be an option in the Keyboard Layouts dialog box (in the 
Keyboard settings) to enable/disable the extra keyboard layouts. 
a. The text for the checkbox could say 'Enable additional keyboard layouts'.
b. The checkbox action would enable/disable the field 
'/org/gnome/libgnomekbd/desktop/load-extra-items'.
c. The default should be not to show additional keyboard layouts.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 995401] Re: Ubuntu 12.04: keyboard layout does not change languages

[Simos Xenitellis]

I have Ubuntu 12.04 (upgraded from Ubuntu 12.04 Alpha1) and I exhibit this 
issue.
Here is my understanding of the problem and I would like your help to verify.

When you first install Ubuntu, you can select keyboard layout settings or 
accept the default provided by the installer.
These settings become the default, and can be found at /etc/default/keyboard
For example, if you installed Ubuntu by selecting the US English installation 
option, then you get the layout for US English.

If you later change your layout settings in the graphical user interface, the 
file /etc/default/keyboard will remain as it is, and the GUI will be informed 
that the user has a custom (different layout) that should be enabled.
I believe that bug is with the GUI not detecting that we have changed the 
default layout, and that we now have custom settings. 
This explains how in the keyboard settings you can see your new layout 
settings, but they are not active. 
You can force to re-apply for the current session your custom layout settings 
simply by (for example) changing the order of the layouts and then changing 
them back to the original order. In this way you can avoid opening the terminal 
to run setxkbmap.

Thus, if you are affected by this bug, please check /etc/default/keyboard and 
see whether your default layout is the one described in that file.
If my theory is correct, then a proper workaround would be to edit for now your 
/etc/default/keyboard so that it matches your desired layout settings.

Bug description:
  Probably this problem is reported but the ubuntu-bug system cannot
  trace it.

  I have upgraded to 12.04 from 11.10 which was a clean install. My
  keyboard language-settings (in the login screen as well) were
  norwegian and greek. However when I installed the 12.04 version my
  keyboard-layout was changed to english but the keyboard layout manager
  was showing norwegian.

  On the keyboard-layout settings I put the english(US) layout and I
  removed greek and norwegian. Typed a bit and then put norwegian and
  greek and I removed the english (US) again and chose the Alt-Shift
  combination for changing layouts.  What I get is an unchangable
  english(US) layout.

  Important note: My keyboard is US-keyboard. I mean the hardware.

  P.S. The ubuntu-bug system has a serious bug. When I was looking about
  the bug on Google I could find the launchpad relevant subject. I
  wanted to use the ubuntu-bug system in order to report my system's
  details. Then I could not find the subject again through the launchpad
  search engine and I was forced to report it as a new problem
