[Bug 491585] Re: Authentication box does not place cursor as do all other authentication boxes in Karmic
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 433851 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433851 The speed of the computer probably affects how quickly the password dialog appears after you click Install. This, in turn, affects whether the window manager decides to focus the dialog. This is because PolicyKit (the software that powers the dialog) doesn't know that the dialog is supposed to be modal to the main Ubuntu Software Center window. This is because the PolicyKit maintainer refuses to accept an API that would let us communicate to PolicyKit which window the dialog should be modal to. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 433851 Authentication dialog doesn't get focus -- Authentication box does not place cursor as do all other authentication boxes in Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/491585 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

I can confirm this issue as well. Whenever I click Install, the password box comes up and I begin typing, but instead it starts searching in the Ubuntu Software Center behind it. And not in the actual search box, just searching as if you click in the window and start typing. ** Also affects: hundredpapercuts Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Authentication box does not place cursor as do all other authentication boxes in Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/491585 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

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Is this bug reproducible? I have checked it on Ubuntu 9.10 amd64 and the cursor is placed in the password box. -- Authentication box does not place cursor as do all other authentication boxes in Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/491585 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

Hi Alex, I had no idea that it would be different under different systems, but yes, it is consistent and reproducible. I admit I can't imagine what would make that kind of difference. If it helps any, the laptop is an Acer 5570Z, with a dual core T2080. If I can furnish any further info, please just ask. E-mail is in my profile. But it is minor and cosmetic. -- Authentication box does not place cursor as do all other authentication boxes in Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/491585 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

Hi Alex, well the plot thickens. I tried it on my desktop which is also running 910 on a Intel Pentium IV. It also places the cursor correctly, so this seems peculiar to my machine or processor. I do not have a clue where this is leading, but I'm willing to try anything you can suggest. -- Authentication box does not place cursor as do all other authentication boxes in Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/491585 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
