[Bug 310088] Re: restore-trash crashes if the original path does not exist (even if it's in the same trash can)
One more suggestion: Don't name the trash command trash-file unless there are absolutely compulsory reasons for it. My arguments against trash-file: * It is not intuitive and therefore unnecessarily difficult to memorise. * It is unnecessarily long. * Every change in the name of programs causes confusion, so the new solution should be a clear improvement (which it isn't). * It is even wrong: Directories can be trashed, too. Just trash was much better. However, I welcome the renaming of restore-trash to trash-restore, list-trash to trash-list etc. This is intuitive and allows the user to look for the appropriate command with the tab key. -- restore-trash crashes if the original path does not exist (even if it's in the same trash can) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/310088 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 66104] Why is this bug only medium importance??
I don't understand why this bug is labelled only medium importance. It should be critical or important, at least. The workarounds don't really solve the problem. This bug seriously threatens to scare off users who need multiple input methods - they may not be the majority, but they are an important segment of the linux population. On windows, input methods always work flawlessly for me. If I look at the critical bugs, there are things like synaptics touch pad(laptop) clicks too easily, and if I look at the high importance section, there are shocking problems like Cannot create a user håkan. Please don't get me wrong, I don't want to offend anyone. But I seriously believe that the standard, pre-installed input method changer in Ubuntu absolutely needs to work properly if Ubuntu wants to be what it wants to be. I'm looking forward to downloading the solution to this problem, and thank you to anyone who helps to solve it! Christoph P.S.

[Bug 155826] networked printer spits out extra blank page
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: cupsys [Is cupsys really the right package for this problem?] After every print job, a blank page is ejected, be it a normal print job from any application or a test page from the xfce printing settings dialog. The same printer works fine by USB and on Windows (USB and network). This is very annoying because the blank pages cause paper jams if I try to reuse them.

[Bug 66104] Re: scim: input freezes in various applications under XIM mode, additional information
I can reproduce the error by opening a bash terminal and hitting ctrl+shift+t many times without pausing. When I do this, not _all_ keyboard input is blocked: * ctrl-shift-t and ctrl-shift-w work (open and close tabs) * I can copy text with ctrl-shift-c * alt-F4 works, to close the window Another weird behaviour: What I do, variant A: * I open one terminal * I type some special character (ä, ü, à, etc.) * I open a new terminal with ctrl-shift-n (sometimes it also happens when i switch to an existing terminal window) What I do, variant B: * I open one terminal (this works also with thunderbird) * I open a new terminal with ctrl-shift-n * Before the new terminal is ready, i type anything. What i get: * Both windows are basically keyboard blocked. * But not really, I give some examples: - close all terminals (works the same with thunderbird) - open new terminal (I call it window1) - ctrl-shift-n and without delay n (or any other letter). window2 appears. - input (window2): hello. no reaction. - alt-tab (works fine, focus changes to window1.) - input: gugus (and here, at the first key stroke, the n appears in window2, along with the first g in window1!) - alt-tab (focus on window2 again, nothing else happens.) - alt-tab (focus on window1, nothing else) - input: x (xugus appears, making sxugus). It's not always exactly the same, but there seems to be something wrong with the assigning of input to a certain window if one does not wait for the window to completely build before one types. With Thunderbird, it's much worse because the same thing happens and there, the windows take more time to load. I don't know it that's the same bug as the one above, but it seems to me.
