[Bug 882588] [NEW] LibreOffice opens repeatedly when browsing with Mozilla Firefox or reading mail with Mozilla Thunderbird

2011-10-27 Thread Alex Thurgood
Public bug reported:

With LibreOffice 3.4.3 for Ubuntu Oneiric, LibreOffice is launched
without being requested to do so when browsing using Firefox or reading
e-mail with Thunderbird. The problem goes away if the package mozilla-
libreoffice is removed.

[Bug 453330] Re: [Karmic] pipes are somewhat brocken

2010-08-27 Thread Alex Thurgood
I have a tgz file that weighs in at 4Gb because it is a backup of my
system produced with the SimpleBackup utility, stored to an Iomega 500Gb
USB drive. When I try to untar this file, whether on Windows XP with
7zip, or on my Ubuntu Lucid Aspire One netbook, I systematically get the
EOF error message, for example, when using the Archive Mounter or the
Extract here command from Nautilus. The version of tar installed on my
system is 1.22-2.

My questions are : What is the point of making backups if one can't then
replay them back when needed (as is my case at the moment) because the
utility is faulty (under the most commonly used circumstances) ?

Has this bug really been fixed ? In my case at least, it would appear
not to have been.

Alex

[Bug 106155] Re: Sbackup should report when a backup fails

2010-08-27 Thread Alex Thurgood
Hello all,
I have a question : Does this new improved nssbackup check to see whether the 
file system it is writing to supports file sizes of more than 4Gb ?

Why ? Because, as others have pointed out here, guaranteeing data
integrity in an End User backup product (or any backup product for that
matter) is an absolute requirement. I have just discovered (as in
today), whilst attempting to restore my system after a motherboard burn
out, that sbackup fails on big writes to VFAT external USB drives
without warning to the user, thereby producing corrupted tgz files which
are useless for the purposes of restoring my system. As a business user,
this is unacceptable (and even as a personal user, I am mightily upset
(an understatement). Essentially, I have 3 months of absolutely useless
backups because I put my good faith in a touted as mainstream End User
backup solution.

If I were a more vindictive person, I would sue the backside off the
persons or entity responsible (Canonical included) for making this
software available, and as a lawyer, believe me that would be easy to
do, irrespective of all the leakridden liability waivers that may or may
not be apparent to the user (of which there are none with sbackup via
the graphical interface at least AFAIK).

Get it right before you release it into the mainstream distro, otherwise
someone, somewhere will end up suing you.


I sincerely hope that nssbackup is better, for everyone's sake.

[Bug 563387] Re: X Server crashes due probably due to wacom tablet driver

2010-08-27 Thread Alex Thurgood
I might add that plugging in or plugging out the USB cable causes GDM to
exit without saving and restart. In Karmic, the Xserver just used to
freeze occasionally or cause text on screen to be selected without
releasing the selection mechanism. The only way out of this was to
unplug the Wacom tablet, but at least it didn't cause X to crash. Now it
crashes, quits the session and returns the user to the login screen. It
seems to be indiscriminate in when it happens, in that I haven't noticed
an increase in system load for example. However, every time I pull out
the cable or plug it back, X crashes.

[Bug 576531] Re: netdiscovery: relocation error segfault

2010-08-23 Thread Alex Thurgood
Sigh, this bug also affects me, below is the output when starting
xscanimage or xsane from a terminal in Ubuntu Lucid Lynx :

netdiscovery: relocation error: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libnss_files.so.2:
symbol strcmp, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link
time reference

I might add that this worked flawlessy with Karmic over the local
network. I have tried re-installing the official Samsung drivers, and
network enabled printing configuration works fine, the printer is
detected and configured correctly and printing works (as it did in any
case before the driver re-installation). However, the scanner list that
is called up via the Samsung utility shows no network scanner any
longer).

I am in a professional office environment where I used to scan all
incoming mail documents over the network, so the fact that this has
ceased to function with the upgrade to Lucid Lynx is a major issue for
me.
