+1 to username The whole Home Folder concept is daft, because to me that means /home. Although I know Home Folder is /home/*username*. If everyone turns to Windows Vista (even though I hate it so much) it has changed My Documents to *username* in the start menu and the sub-directories inside of it is Documents, Music, etc etc...

[Bug 3923] Re: Cannot change default character encoding
Above method does work reliably. Only 1 of my Ubuntus will not accept it - but then it isn't reading the current default locale of en_GB.UTF-8 either which is why its resorting to ANSI(ASCII). I might try just reinstalling Gnome Terminal. The Ubuntu in question is a 6.06 LTS - but then others of these work OK.

[Bug 3923] Re: Cannot change default character encoding
A permanent config for the character set would be very useful. It has long been a feature of PuTTY (Terminal Translation Chr Set). It would be best set in Profiles (similar to PuTTY's saved session) rather than globally, because its often required only for some specific purpose. The only way I have been able to do this so far, as suggested in http://osdir.com/ml/gnome.os.redhat/2002-10/msg00022.html, is to first setup the required locale eg: via: $ sudo locale-gen en_GB.ISO-8859-15 so that the new locale is listed by $ locale -a (as 'en_GB.iso885915'). Then I start GT like:- $ env LC_CTYPE=en_GB.ISO-8859-15 gnome-terminal ... --disable-factory But some of my Ubuntu's are resistant to enabling or using the new locale. Although it is listed by 'locale -a' as above, when I try to start GT as described above I get: gnome-terminal: 7773: ... locale not supported by C library. And yet I can select the same chr set from GT's Terminal Set Chr Encoding menu!? One of my GT's also shows its 'Current Locale' as 'ANSI_X3.4-1968' even though this is not listed by 'locale -a' at all!? Any helpful comments about these problems would be much appreciated. -- Cannot change default character encoding https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/3923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I can confirm this bug in Xubuntu 6.10 with AbiWord 2.4.5. I can print multiple times from gedit and Firefox, but only once each time I open AbiWd - even with the same document.

[Bug 19101] Re: nautilus's clever anti-hax0r detection is really dumb
I had the same problems after a recent upgrade from Dapper 6.06LTS to Edgy 6.10. It particularly affected HTML and XML files which I noticed first in yelp - it opened these files in gedit. I also had similar problems with icons like bug 41772. With .tar.gz archives I also got the message No application suitable for automatic installation is available for handling this kind of file. The steps below fixed all these problems for me:- It did not seem to be necessary to move or rename ~/.local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache as reported by jefight for 7.04. I did actually do that first, but when I restored it again after step 3 below, the problems remain fixed. 1. sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime 2. sudo dpkg-reconfigure shared-mime-info 3. $ killall gnome-panel $ killall nautilus Haz -- nautilus's clever anti-hax0r detection is really dumb https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/19101 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 59507] gksu -u and 'Run as different user' (not root) problems
Public bug reported: I'm not sure if this is a bug in gksu, a bug in Ubuntu 6.06, or just to do with documentation. In Breezy (5.10) I used to run several apps as another user on the same machine via 'gksu -u other-username cmd' (after giving the other user's password to gnome-keyring when prompted). Now I've upgraded to 6.06 Dapper this fails. No prompt for password, just the errors:- Xlib: connection to :0.0 refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified unable to display :0.0 It works if I just do 'gksu cmd' to run the cmd as root, but not with '-u username' to run the cmd as a different user. Similarly, if I go via Gnome Apps System Tools Run as different user, I can run commands as root, but not as any other user. The solution I am using is to run 'xhost +local:' either manually from the X session, or via Gnome System Prefs Sessions Startup Progs. I'm not sure if this is the proper way to allow 'gksu -u' or if there is a better way. I did try creating /etc/X0.hosts (with a zero) and adding the line: 'local:', then restarting X. This seems to do part of the job: if I then do 'xhost' it shows 'LOCAL:' as needed, BUT if I do 'gksu -u otheruser cmd', or 'sudo -u otheruser xhost', I just get the Xlib errors. I've also tried lots of other possibilities in X0.hosts eg: 'localhost', 'username', '+local:', etc, etc. I did make /etc/X0.hosts executable (755). The password requirements have also changed: whereas I used to be prompted by gnome-keyring for the pwd of the other user, now I just get prompted (sudo - style) for my own pwd.

[Bug 59361] Icon folder browser doesn't show icons even as list
Public bug reported: Choosing an icon eg: for a launcher via 'browse' opens a 2 pane 'Browse' window. This browser is fine for getting to the folder you want, if you know whats in that folder, but it only shows sub-folders not icons in the folder. As you double-click down through the folders, and finally double-click on a folder containing only icons it appears to be empty. Once you understand this behaviour, you know to click 'Open' on any folder that *might* contain icons, so that it opens the separate, single pane 'Browse Icons' window, and shows whether there are any icons there or not. Seems to me there are two problems with this:- 1. It is counter-intuitive, especially for newer users - you can easily assume that a folder is empty when it is really stuffed full of icons. 2. It just makes finding the right icon so much harder that it already is (because there are so many different folders to search). ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Icon folder browser doesn't show icons even as list https://launchpad.net/bugs/59361 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
