Re: [Bug 1088731] Re: sudo apt-get install wine produced an error, exit code 1

Problem solved!

I rebooted, and then, as recommended, executed
sudo apt-get install -f

This worked; no more problems!

[Bug 1088731] Re: sudo apt-get install wine produced an error, exit code 1

2012-12-20 Thread Saul Lubkin
As noted above, the problem cam when I executed

sudo apt-get install wine

I believe the problem was related to the following:  At one point, a
grey window came up, indicating that there was microsoft code or some
such thing, and requiring that I click on a radio button indicating
"Yes".  I was unable to click on the radio button; I tried.

So I killed the process.

The problem "debconf, etc." .. has now occurred, every time new software
is attempted to be installed.

But the software seems to work fine.

I've just installed a new linux kernel.

My guess is, that I should reboot.

Had the "debconf error" not occurred, I believe that that would have
been the next step requested by the system.

Re: [Bug 1082728] Re: The Glib library has bugs that affect Thunderbird

2012-12-02 Thread Saul Lubkin
Hmmm...

Dear Philip,

So it actually is a bug in Ubuntu Thunderbird -- Thunderbird has problems
running zimbra email.

Also, the messages almost definitely have to do with the lag that i am
seeing -- they occur at exactly the same time.

Only one thing wrong with that:  Thunderbird on my wife's Windows computer
has no trouble with exactly the same zimbra mail account.
So, if the bug is in Thunderbird, then it's only in Ubuntu Thunderbird.

Nikki thought that it was a bug in Ubuntu's Glib.  She directed me to
emails indicating a similar problem with Firefox and Ubuntu glib -- but
that's been fixed.

`selection_changed' is invalid for instance `0x958b87c0'

(thunderbird:3175): GLib-GObject-WARNING **:
/build/buildd/glib2.0-2.32.3/./gobject/gsignal.c:3393: signal name
`selection_changed' is invalid for instance `0x88d090a0'

According to Nikki (and it seems very believable to me), this is the source
of the bug in Thunderbird -- actually a bug in Glib.  (I was hoping it
would be fixed in the new version of Ubuntu -- but, no change).

Balsa mail works perfectly.

(Also, I should note:  Thunderbird has no trouble with my gmail account.
The problems occur with my zimbra mail account (my business email:
z.rochester.edu))

Hope that you can hep,

Re: [Bug 1082728] Re: The Glib library has bugs that affect Thunderbird

2012-11-30 Thread Saul Lubkin
Initially this was a question that I posed on Launchpad.  I was asked to
put the content of .xsessions into a pastebin, as well as the
output in a terminal when I started Thunderbird in the terminal.  The
output in the terminal had the error messages for Glib calls.  Nikki from
Ubuntu Launchpad told me to close the case with "this solved my problem",
and to make a bug report about the Glib problem.

I have.

BTW, there appears to be a new version of Ubuntu.  How can I upgrade to
that?  Maybe that will solve the problem?

[Bug 1082728] [NEW] The Glib library has bugs that affect Thunderbird

2012-11-24 Thread Saul Lubkin
Public bug reported:

When I double click on an email in Thunderbird, Thunderbird (correctly)
puts a copy of that email in a new tab.

But when I delete the new tab, Thunderbird greys; it makes extensive use
of the hard disk, causing a large whirling sound, for two or three
minutes, before Thunderbird returns to normal (not greyed out).

As a result, my Thunderbird is very difficult to use, and is putting far
too much demand on the computer.

In fact, just single clicking on an email (to read it) often causes Thunderbird 
to grey, and to whirl the hard disk, for
a minute.

Something must be wrong with my Thunderbird.

I've tried;

sudo apt-get install --reinstall Thunderbird -- this did not help.

Help much appreciated.

  -- Saul

The Ubuntu/Thunderbird problem described above is caused by a bug in
Ubuntu Glib.
