Confirmed #32 in 19.10 
I added Terminal=0 . Then I right-clicked on the icon and selected "Allow 
Launching" from the menu. The launch worked, just as in Windows 3.1 Thanks 
Adeel!

  xdg-open *.desktop opens text editor

Status in GLib:
  New
Status in gvfs:
  New
Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xdg-utils

  In order to reproduce it execute "xdg-open *.desktop" (choose any
  .desktop file, e.g. one from /usr/share/applications). Actually your
  favorite text editor will open the file. Expected result: It'll be
  executed.

  Because of this bug, desktop entries with the new "#!/usr/bin/env xdg-
  open" shebang feature were opened in the text editor when executed
  from command line.

Title:
  hplip issue during hp-setup - stuck at plugin install

Status in hplip package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Fresh install of Kubuntu 19.04 
  Installed hplip from repositories, available version is 3.19.1+dfsg0-1

  When I start setup with hp-setup, this happens:
  1. I am asked connection type. I select network ethernet
  2. My printer is detected. I select it and hit next
  3. I am told about the proprietary plugin to download. I confirm, accept 
download. I enter my user's password. I get a confirmation that the plugin is 
correctly Installed.
  4. On next screen, I get a warning and cannot continue installation. I am 
told this printer needs a proprietary plugin to work correctly. After this I am 
stuck in a loop between points 3 and 4. I also tried to start hp-setup from 
super user on command line. but no way around this issue.

  What I did next, I manually downloaded hplip-3.19.3.run from HP
  website. Removed version of hplip installed from repositories.
  Installed from manually downloaded package, followed the very same
  steps. Everything worked fine and printer is installed successfully.

  I hope this information is useful.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1244158] Re: GNOME: Modifiers Only keyboard layout switch have no effect

2014-04-26 Thread whitefawn
I have Right Control key as keyboard layout switcher.

if I click and hold RightCtrl and then press any keyboard key, the
layout switches and I can type in another alphabet.

If I simply press RightCtrl, the actual keyboard layout is back to
English, despite the layout indicator switches

Experienced on Ubuntu Gnome 13.10 and 14.04.

Title:
  GNOME: Modifiers Only keyboard layout switch have no effect

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After setting up Alt+Shift keys to change the keyboard layout (via
  gnome-tweak-tool or via gnome control center), these key combinations
  do not provide the expected result.

  Expected Result:
  Keyboard layout is changed and keyboard indicator display updates

  Actual Result:
  Only keyboard indicator display updates, leaving the actual keyboard 
indicator in English.

  I have English-Hebrew keyboard layout configured with alt+shift for layout 
switching.
  Once the layout is on Hebrew, alt+shift switches back to English properly. 
  Once the layout is on English, alt+shift changes the keyboard indicator to 
"he", but actually the systems layout is still English.
  At this point, pressing Alt+Shift results in changes to the indicator display 
only, resulting in no actual layout switches.

  If "Allow different sources for each window" is selected in "Input Sources 
Options" then:
  - Changing the layout to Hebrew.
  - Alt-Tab to another window with a different layout.
  - Alt-Tab back, allows me to type back in Hebrew.

  When Alt+Shift "switches" to English:
  $ setxkbmap -query
  rules:  evdev
  model:  pc105
  layout: us
  options:compose:caps,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,grp:alt_shift_toggle

  When Alt+Shift "switches" to Hebrew:
  $ setxkbmap -query
  rules:  evdev
  model:  pc105
  layout: il,us
  variant:,
  options:compose:caps,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp,grp:alt_shift_toggle

  Which seems right. But still when typing, English chars are being
  typed.

  I tried this with the packages from the official repos, gnome-ppa, and 
ppa:attente/1218322 as described here:
  
http://askubuntu.com/questions/356357/how-to-use-altshift-combo-to-switch-keyboard-layout-in-13-10
  All with the same effect.

  Ubuntu 13.10
  gnome-settings-daemon 3.8.5-0ubuntu9

(as a side note, I find it highly ironic that Ubuntu, once advertised as
international OS, now has the bug that affects users all over the world
) :)))
