[Bug 291259] Re: smb url don't work in the run application dialog

2009-05-27 Thread Brett Howard
If you add a bookmark to an SMB share in Nautilus these bookmarks can be
seen in the Places menu.  Until you run the fix for this clicking on
these links generates the same error message.  I see this as a much
bigger issue as I've had several customers wonder why this doesn't work.
I'll run these commands and save off my images again for the Ubuntu
netbooks that I've been selling so as to quit getting this question!

I should be receiving a BB Storm 9530 tomorrow and will probably give

I was using writer and its not all that low of a res.  Its 1440X1050.  Right
now my system is in the middle of a rebuild or I'd try it again but in the
event that its still there for me I'll be more specific about where I have
it in the screen and what not and take some screen captures if I can.  Even
with it doing what it was its a VERY minor thing as simply clicking out of
the menu and opening it again moves me back toward the top.

[Bug 211471] [NEW] Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

This is similar to bug #185209 in that I've seen this happen on this box
and fixed it by deleting some of the entries in ~/.gnome2.

When I'm at home my computer works just fine on my WiFi access. My
access is a WPA 802.11G point.

When at work I tried connecting to a WPA2 network and a WEP network and
both crashed nm-applet or at least I assume that it was nm-applet that
was crashing but it seemed to take gnome-panel with it and I think
nautilus as well as I was unable to click on icons on the desktop. I was
still spin the desktop and all that fun stuff using compiz though.

I also noted this same problem when connecting to a wired network at the
same location. After this rebooting would still present me with a gnome-
applet that was dead. However my system monitor applet seemed to never
die. Just the Applications/Places/System and all of the launcher icons.
Things seemed to die after clicking on an icon but it was always the
first icon after successful connection to an "other" network. Not sure
why it works so well here at home but its a NO GO at work.

Deleting the .gnome2 folder in my home was the only way to get the panel
back after causing one of these crashes.

This is under 8.04 Beta and the nm-applet I'm running is 0.6.6. This
install of 8.04 was an upgrade from Gutsy and the gutsy install worked
perfectly! The network card is an ipw2200.

It was suggested that I run nm-applet in a terminal and look at what it
says when this happens..  So I did this and posted another post that
read:


** Message:  Forcing device '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/eth1'

** (nm-applet:9168): CRITICAL **: nm_gconf_wso_set_key: assertion `key != NULL'
failed

** (nm-applet:9168): WARNING **:  real_write_secrets_cb(): Error saving 
secret for wireless network '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in keyring: 5


At this point in time clicking any of the launcher applets in the gnome
panel (such as evolution or firefox) causes the system to pretty much go
down. After that hovering over a panel icon will not allow it to
illuminate. Hovering over the desktop icons does cause them to
illuminate still (but not always) and they won't open. However Compiz
still seems to be very alive and pidgin seems to be working just fine
and is actually connected to the net. Connecting from somewhere else
makes pidgin disconnect on the laptop and show all the messages that it
should. After this in order to reboot I have to do a ctrl+alt+F1 and
then reboot from there...

Whoa.. Ok take that back.. The icons on the desktop DO open but they
take FOREVER! Like minutes. I just opened up a folder and a few minutes
later it opened the folder in nautilus then immediately turned grey. Its
probably just still operating very slowly...

Hitting Ctrl+c in the terminal that was running nm-applet doesn't seem
to bring it back.

I have a thread where I've been posting anything new that happens related to 
this bug here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4634642#post4634642

Now that I have this as well I'll start posting any updates to here.

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
If I reboot with out deleting things in the ~/.gnome2 folder when it
auto connects the gnome-panel doesn't load at all.  It just looks like a
white band.  But I *DO* get connected to the network and my pidgin which
auto loads *IS* able to sign onto the chat networks.  I get a message
box titled error but it says nothing in it at all.  Not sure if this is
related or not as I've never seen it before but it just popped up while
typing this.

I'm still able to load videos off of the desktop but trying to open a
folder results in another box that just says Error in the title bar but
has no text in the window portion.

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
Not sure if it adds much to the conversation but after deleting just the
file in the keyrings dir under .gnome2 upon boot I was presented with a
window asking for the network key.  While this prompt was there the
gnome-panel was white.  After canceling out of this prompt the gnome-
panel loaded.  Then I simply plugged in an ethernet cable and clicked an
icon on the panel and it didn't load.  The panel was dead.

Then I ctrl+alt+f1ed and killed nm-applet from the console.  Then alt+f7
brought me back to X.  The panel was empty except for the trey icons and
the system monitor.  ie the menus launcher and clock were all empty.
After waiting just a couple of seconds the panel lit back up and all of
the buttons that I'd clicked on finally opened.  I closed them and typed
nm-applet into a console and nm-applet came back.  However trying to
connect to an access point again after that kills things yet again.. (at
least its consistent... :))

2008-04-12 Thread Brett Howard
After rebuilding the box from scratching with an 8.04 beta disc and
installing all updates I still have this same issue.  Its not that the
panel totally crashes now though.  Things just respond VERY slowly in
comparison to when I'm at home.  I've noticed this operation on 3
different access points up and down the street.  Just driving down the
street had enough points listed that it had to scroll several
screenfull's just to see the one I wanted to connect to.  The points I'm
connecting to are straight up open 100% public free points.  The one at
home is WPA Personal.

Once applications are open they seem to respond generally fine but the
applications menu becomes painfully slow...

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-05-08 Thread Brett Howard
I should have done this earlier.  Fortunately since the release of 8.04
I've no longer had this issue.  Not sure if something was issued as a
fix or if a fix for something else also fixed my problem but I seem to
be working fine now.  I've also rebuilt this installation several times
and have yet to be able to reproduce this issue with 8.04 release but it
happened everytime on 8.04 beta and RC.

I was using writer and its not all that low of a res.  Its 1440X1050.  Right
now my system is in the middle of a rebuild or I'd try it again but in the
event that its still there for me I'll be more specific about where I have
it in the screen and what not and take some screen captures if I can.  Even
with it doing what it was its a VERY minor thing as simply clicking out of
the menu and opening it again moves me back toward the top.

[Bug 211471] [NEW] Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

This is similar to bug #185209 in that I've seen this happen on this box
and fixed it by deleting some of the entries in ~/.gnome2.

When I'm at home my computer works just fine on my WiFi access. My
access is a WPA 802.11G point.

When at work I tried connecting to a WPA2 network and a WEP network and
both crashed nm-applet or at least I assume that it was nm-applet that
was crashing but it seemed to take gnome-panel with it and I think
nautilus as well as I was unable to click on icons on the desktop. I was
still spin the desktop and all that fun stuff using compiz though.

I also noted this same problem when connecting to a wired network at the
same location. After this rebooting would still present me with a gnome-
applet that was dead. However my system monitor applet seemed to never
die. Just the Applications/Places/System and all of the launcher icons.
Things seemed to die after clicking on an icon but it was always the
first icon after successful connection to an "other" network. Not sure
why it works so well here at home but its a NO GO at work.

Deleting the .gnome2 folder in my home was the only way to get the panel
back after causing one of these crashes.

This is under 8.04 Beta and the nm-applet I'm running is 0.6.6. This
install of 8.04 was an upgrade from Gutsy and the gutsy install worked
perfectly! The network card is an ipw2200.

It was suggested that I run nm-applet in a terminal and look at what it
says when this happens..  So I did this and posted another post that
read:


** Message:  Forcing device '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/eth1'

** (nm-applet:9168): CRITICAL **: nm_gconf_wso_set_key: assertion `key != NULL'
failed

** (nm-applet:9168): WARNING **:  real_write_secrets_cb(): Error saving 
secret for wireless network '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in keyring: 5


At this point in time clicking any of the launcher applets in the gnome
panel (such as evolution or firefox) causes the system to pretty much go
down. After that hovering over a panel icon will not allow it to
illuminate. Hovering over the desktop icons does cause them to
illuminate still (but not always) and they won't open. However Compiz
still seems to be very alive and pidgin seems to be working just fine
and is actually connected to the net. Connecting from somewhere else
makes pidgin disconnect on the laptop and show all the messages that it
should. After this in order to reboot I have to do a ctrl+alt+F1 and
then reboot from there...

Whoa.. Ok take that back.. The icons on the desktop DO open but they
take FOREVER! Like minutes. I just opened up a folder and a few minutes
later it opened the folder in nautilus then immediately turned grey. Its
probably just still operating very slowly...

Hitting Ctrl+c in the terminal that was running nm-applet doesn't seem
to bring it back.

I have a thread where I've been posting anything new that happens related to 
this bug here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4634642#post4634642

Now that I have this as well I'll start posting any updates to here.

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
If I reboot with out deleting things in the ~/.gnome2 folder when it
auto connects the gnome-panel doesn't load at all.  It just looks like a
white band.  But I *DO* get connected to the network and my pidgin which
auto loads *IS* able to sign onto the chat networks.  I get a message
box titled error but it says nothing in it at all.  Not sure if this is
related or not as I've never seen it before but it just popped up while
typing this.

I'm still able to load videos off of the desktop but trying to open a
folder results in another box that just says Error in the title bar but
has no text in the window portion.

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
Not sure if it adds much to the conversation but after deleting just the
file in the keyrings dir under .gnome2 upon boot I was presented with a
window asking for the network key.  While this prompt was there the
gnome-panel was white.  After canceling out of this prompt the gnome-
panel loaded.  Then I simply plugged in an ethernet cable and clicked an
icon on the panel and it didn't load.  The panel was dead.

Then I ctrl+alt+f1ed and killed nm-applet from the console.  Then alt+f7
brought me back to X.  The panel was empty except for the trey icons and
the system monitor.  ie the menus launcher and clock were all empty.
After waiting just a couple of seconds the panel lit back up and all of
the buttons that I'd clicked on finally opened.  I closed them and typed
nm-applet into a console and nm-applet came back.  However trying to
connect to an access point again after that kills things yet again.. (at
least its consistent... :))

2008-04-12 Thread Brett Howard
After rebuilding the box from scratching with an 8.04 beta disc and
installing all updates I still have this same issue.  Its not that the
panel totally crashes now though.  Things just respond VERY slowly in
comparison to when I'm at home.  I've noticed this operation on 3
different access points up and down the street.  Just driving down the
street had enough points listed that it had to scroll several
screenfull's just to see the one I wanted to connect to.  The points I'm
connecting to are straight up open 100% public free points.  The one at
home is WPA Personal.

Once applications are open they seem to respond generally fine but the
applications menu becomes painfully slow...

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-05-08 Thread Brett Howard
I should have done this earlier.  Fortunately since the release of 8.04
I've no longer had this issue.  Not sure if something was issued as a
fix or if a fix for something else also fixed my problem but I seem to
be working fine now.  I've also rebuilt this installation several times
and have yet to be able to reproduce this issue with 8.04 release but it
happened everytime on 8.04 beta and RC.

Should also state another difference from the original bug that I

I was using writer and its not all that low of a res.  Its 1440X1050.  Right
now my system is in the middle of a rebuild or I'd try it again but in the
event that its still there for me I'll be more specific about where I have
it in the screen and what not and take some screen captures if I can.  Even
with it doing what it was its a VERY minor thing as simply clicking out of
the menu and opening it again moves me back toward the top.

You're correct.  When it scrolls down it fits it all and the blows away

[Bug 211471] [NEW] Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

This is similar to bug #185209 in that I've seen this happen on this box
and fixed it by deleting some of the entries in ~/.gnome2.

When I'm at home my computer works just fine on my WiFi access. My
access is a WPA 802.11G point.

When at work I tried connecting to a WPA2 network and a WEP network and
both crashed nm-applet or at least I assume that it was nm-applet that
was crashing but it seemed to take gnome-panel with it and I think
nautilus as well as I was unable to click on icons on the desktop. I was
still spin the desktop and all that fun stuff using compiz though.

I also noted this same problem when connecting to a wired network at the
same location. After this rebooting would still present me with a gnome-
applet that was dead. However my system monitor applet seemed to never
die. Just the Applications/Places/System and all of the launcher icons.
Things seemed to die after clicking on an icon but it was always the
first icon after successful connection to an "other" network. Not sure
why it works so well here at home but its a NO GO at work.

Deleting the .gnome2 folder in my home was the only way to get the panel
back after causing one of these crashes.

This is under 8.04 Beta and the nm-applet I'm running is 0.6.6. This
install of 8.04 was an upgrade from Gutsy and the gutsy install worked
perfectly! The network card is an ipw2200.

It was suggested that I run nm-applet in a terminal and look at what it
says when this happens..  So I did this and posted another post that
read:


** Message:  Forcing device '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/eth1'

** (nm-applet:9168): CRITICAL **: nm_gconf_wso_set_key: assertion `key != NULL'
failed

** (nm-applet:9168): WARNING **:  real_write_secrets_cb(): Error saving 
secret for wireless network '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in keyring: 5


At this point in time clicking any of the launcher applets in the gnome
panel (such as evolution or firefox) causes the system to pretty much go
down. After that hovering over a panel icon will not allow it to
illuminate. Hovering over the desktop icons does cause them to
illuminate still (but not always) and they won't open. However Compiz
still seems to be very alive and pidgin seems to be working just fine
and is actually connected to the net. Connecting from somewhere else
makes pidgin disconnect on the laptop and show all the messages that it
should. After this in order to reboot I have to do a ctrl+alt+F1 and
then reboot from there...

Whoa.. Ok take that back.. The icons on the desktop DO open but they
take FOREVER! Like minutes. I just opened up a folder and a few minutes
later it opened the folder in nautilus then immediately turned grey. Its
probably just still operating very slowly...

Hitting Ctrl+c in the terminal that was running nm-applet doesn't seem
to bring it back.

I have a thread where I've been posting anything new that happens related to 
this bug here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4634642#post4634642

Now that I have this as well I'll start posting any updates to here.

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
If I reboot with out deleting things in the ~/.gnome2 folder when it
auto connects the gnome-panel doesn't load at all.  It just looks like a
white band.  But I *DO* get connected to the network and my pidgin which
auto loads *IS* able to sign onto the chat networks.  I get a message
box titled error but it says nothing in it at all.  Not sure if this is
related or not as I've never seen it before but it just popped up while
typing this.

I'm still able to load videos off of the desktop but trying to open a
folder results in another box that just says Error in the title bar but
has no text in the window portion.

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
Not sure if it adds much to the conversation but after deleting just the
file in the keyrings dir under .gnome2 upon boot I was presented with a
window asking for the network key.  While this prompt was there the
gnome-panel was white.  After canceling out of this prompt the gnome-
panel loaded.  Then I simply plugged in an ethernet cable and clicked an
icon on the panel and it didn't load.  The panel was dead.

Then I ctrl+alt+f1ed and killed nm-applet from the console.  Then alt+f7
brought me back to X.  The panel was empty except for the trey icons and
the system monitor.  ie the menus launcher and clock were all empty.
After waiting just a couple of seconds the panel lit back up and all of
the buttons that I'd clicked on finally opened.  I closed them and typed
nm-applet into a console and nm-applet came back.  However trying to
connect to an access point again after that kills things yet again.. (at
least its consistent... :))

2008-04-12 Thread Brett Howard
After rebuilding the box from scratching with an 8.04 beta disc and
installing all updates I still have this same issue.  Its not that the
panel totally crashes now though.  Things just respond VERY slowly in
comparison to when I'm at home.  I've noticed this operation on 3
different access points up and down the street.  Just driving down the
street had enough points listed that it had to scroll several
screenfull's just to see the one I wanted to connect to.  The points I'm
connecting to are straight up open 100% public free points.  The one at
home is WPA Personal.

Once applications are open they seem to respond generally fine but the
applications menu becomes painfully slow...

[Bug 210003] Re: Loss of whitespace in text entry

2008-05-22 Thread Brett Howard
Apologize.  I've added the PPA repository and installed that version of
FF3RC1 and this issue seems to be fixed.  Guess it was an upstream
problem.  Sorry I didn't mention it that way sooner.

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-05-08 Thread Brett Howard
I should have done this earlier.  Fortunately since the release of 8.04
I've no longer had this issue.  Not sure if something was issued as a
fix or if a fix for something else also fixed my problem but I seem to
be working fine now.  I've also rebuilt this installation several times
and have yet to be able to reproduce this issue with 8.04 release but it
happened everytime on 8.04 beta and RC.

[Bug 290576] Re: 0.7 RIM Blackberry 8100 not detected by NetworkManager as modem

2008-11-26 Thread Brett Howard
I can add that when I plugged in my windows mobile device NM detected it
but a connection through NM never seemed to work.  However my console
based attempts would result in success.

I should be receiving a BB Storm 9530 tomorrow and will probably give
this a try.  Would really like a nice clean solution for tethering as
well as using aircards but I'm not really expecting it.

I will note that it looks like there is some promising looking work done for BB 
users here:

[Bug 210139] [NEW] In Save as once scrolled down the list of format types you can't scroll back up

2008-04-01 Thread Brett Howard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

When you first get there there is an up arrow on the box but once you
scroll down this up arrow goes away and the only way to get the top
items back is to click out of the box and re-enter by clicking the
button again.

2008-04-01 Thread Brett Howard
I was using writer and its not all that low of a res.  Its 1440X1050.  Right
now my system is in the middle of a rebuild or I'd try it again but in the
event that its still there for me I'll be more specific about where I have
it in the screen and what not and take some screen captures if I can.  Even
with it doing what it was its a VERY minor thing as simply clicking out of
the menu and opening it again moves me back toward the top.

You're correct.  When it scrolls down it fits it all and the blows away
the arrows and everything is accounted for on the list.  It just kinda
threw me.  Was a long day yesterday and I missed it.  Thanks much
gentlemen.

[Bug 211471] [NEW] Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

This is similar to bug #185209 in that I've seen this happen on this box
and fixed it by deleting some of the entries in ~/.gnome2.

When I'm at home my computer works just fine on my WiFi access. My
access is a WPA 802.11G point.

When at work I tried connecting to a WPA2 network and a WEP network and
both crashed nm-applet or at least I assume that it was nm-applet that
was crashing but it seemed to take gnome-panel with it and I think
nautilus as well as I was unable to click on icons on the desktop. I was
still spin the desktop and all that fun stuff using compiz though.

I also noted this same problem when connecting to a wired network at the
same location. After this rebooting would still present me with a gnome-
applet that was dead. However my system monitor applet seemed to never
die. Just the Applications/Places/System and all of the launcher icons.
Things seemed to die after clicking on an icon but it was always the
first icon after successful connection to an "other" network. Not sure
why it works so well here at home but its a NO GO at work.

Deleting the .gnome2 folder in my home was the only way to get the panel
back after causing one of these crashes.

This is under 8.04 Beta and the nm-applet I'm running is 0.6.6. This
install of 8.04 was an upgrade from Gutsy and the gutsy install worked
perfectly! The network card is an ipw2200.

It was suggested that I run nm-applet in a terminal and look at what it
says when this happens..  So I did this and posted another post that
read:


** Message:  Forcing device '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/eth1'

** (nm-applet:9168): CRITICAL **: nm_gconf_wso_set_key: assertion `key != NULL'
failed

** (nm-applet:9168): WARNING **:  real_write_secrets_cb(): Error saving 
secret for wireless network '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in keyring: 5


At this point in time clicking any of the launcher applets in the gnome
panel (such as evolution or firefox) causes the system to pretty much go
down. After that hovering over a panel icon will not allow it to
illuminate. Hovering over the desktop icons does cause them to
illuminate still (but not always) and they won't open. However Compiz
still seems to be very alive and pidgin seems to be working just fine
and is actually connected to the net. Connecting from somewhere else
makes pidgin disconnect on the laptop and show all the messages that it
should. After this in order to reboot I have to do a ctrl+alt+F1 and
then reboot from there...

Whoa.. Ok take that back.. The icons on the desktop DO open but they
take FOREVER! Like minutes. I just opened up a folder and a few minutes
later it opened the folder in nautilus then immediately turned grey. Its
probably just still operating very slowly...

Hitting Ctrl+c in the terminal that was running nm-applet doesn't seem
to bring it back.

I have a thread where I've been posting anything new that happens related to 
this bug here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4634642#post4634642

Now that I have this as well I'll start posting any updates to here.

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
If I reboot with out deleting things in the ~/.gnome2 folder when it
auto connects the gnome-panel doesn't load at all.  It just looks like a
white band.  But I *DO* get connected to the network and my pidgin which
auto loads *IS* able to sign onto the chat networks.  I get a message
box titled error but it says nothing in it at all.  Not sure if this is
related or not as I've never seen it before but it just popped up while
typing this.

I'm still able to load videos off of the desktop but trying to open a
folder results in another box that just says Error in the title bar but
has no text in the window portion.

[Bug 211471] Re: Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
Not sure if it adds much to the conversation but after deleting just the
file in the keyrings dir under .gnome2 upon boot I was presented with a
window asking for the network key.  While this prompt was there the
gnome-panel was white.  After canceling out of this prompt the gnome-
panel loaded.  Then I simply plugged in an ethernet cable and clicked an
icon on the panel and it didn't load.  The panel was dead.

Then I ctrl+alt+f1ed and killed nm-applet from the console.  Then alt+f7
brought me back to X.  The panel was empty except for the trey icons and
the system monitor.  ie the menus launcher and clock were all empty.
After waiting just a couple of seconds the panel lit back up and all of
the buttons that I'd clicked on finally opened.  I closed them and typed
nm-applet into a console and nm-applet came back.  However trying to
connect to an access point again after that kills things yet again.. (at
least its consistent... :))

[Bug 145134] Re: [gutsy] networkmanager crashes when trying to access a wpa-enterprise or open network

2008-04-03 Thread Brett Howard
How does your X freeze?  Is it actually X that freezes or is it gnome
and the gnome-panel?  I think this sounds quite similar to my experience
that I have under bug 211471.
