[Bug 345754] Re: gvfsd-trash crashed with SIGSEGV in g_simple_async_result_complete()

2010-03-19 Thread Wes M
I'm not sure if I'm having the same problem, but Nautilus crashes
constantly when emptying the trash on Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit. There is no
crash report but I do see something like this in my system log
immediately after:

kernel: [271660.316416] gvfsd-trash[26882]: segfault at 28 ip 00411e14 
sp 7fffdc55c5c0 error 4 in gvfsd-trash[40+25000]
kernel: [271683.371537] nautilus[26820]: segfault at 8 ip 005041ce sp 
7fffdd025c60 error 4 in nautilus[40+1b3000]

Oddly enough, once it happens the first time it doesn't happen again
until after I've logged out and then logged back in.

[Bug 236232] Re: Admin. progs. hang before prompting for authentication

2009-07-19 Thread Wes M
I just recently had this exact same problem with Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04).
It had been working fine for months until today, when for some reason
authentication through PolicyKit started failing and any apps that
needed elevated privileges would just hang. Here's what I did to fix it:

1 - Open up the PolicyKit configuration file (gksudo gedit 
/etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf)
2 - Find this section:






...and change  to  (with "you"
being your user name, not the word "you"). This will essentially give
you root access to everything. Now open up System > Administration >
Users and Groups and you'll notice that everything will be unlocked
without you having to click the unlock button. While you're here, make
sure your main group is admin - if not, change it. Close the Users and
Groups window, then go back to PolicyKit.conf and remove your user name
from the file (meaning it should just say  again).
Now if you open Users and Groups again, all the other user names should
be grayed out, and the unlock should be active again. Click it and you
should see the familiar authentication prompt asking for your password.

[Bug 395692] Re: Drag-and-Drop behavior in the menu editor is inconsistent and confusing

2009-07-14 Thread Wes M
@Richard: I patched the file in /usr/share/pyshared/Alacarte and it
works exactly as expected now. Thank you for your help, and hopefully
the patch will make its way into the next release.

[Bug 395692] Re: Drag-and-Drop behavior in the menu editor is inconsistent and confusing

2009-07-14 Thread Wes M
@Richard: I must have done something wrong then because I'm still having
the same problem in Jaunty 64-bit. I downloaded the source code for
alacarte, moved the patch file into the source code folder, and applied
the patch (patch -p0 < MenuEdit.patch). It said that the patch was
successfully applied, so I compiled and installed it (./configure &&
make && sudo make install). After that I logged out, then logged back in
and opened up the Menu Editor to test the patch. Is there something else
I needed to do?

[Bug 395692] Re: Drag-and-Drop behavior in the menu editor is inconsistent and confusing

2009-07-14 Thread Wes M
@Richard: I like the immediate feedback that your patch adds to the menu
editor. It's a definite improvement, but It doesn't really solve the
problem of where the items get placed once you drop them. If you open
the Menu Editor and drag an item up or down, you'll notice a black line
that appears when you hover between any two items. The placement of the
line implies that when you drop the item, it will be placed in between
those other two items, but if you're dragging downward the item directly
below gets pushed up and the item you were dragging is placed below the
line. When you drag an item down, the item should be placed above the
black line, not below it. Dragging an item up behaves as expected,
though. I'm attaching an image that demonstrates what I'm talking about
just to clear up any confusion.
