[Bug 744615] Re: No sounds should disable even the login sound

2012-01-04 Thread T.J. Crowder
@Sebastien: I'll disagree that this isn't a bug (the VAST majority of desktop systems are primarily administered by a single person), but we can agree to call it an issue. :-) What other open issues are there that relate to this? At a minimum, when no sounds is chosen, if the user in question is a

Help me out here, folks: Is this harmless or not? On the one hand, if it's just a matter of /etc/mtab claiming there's something mounted that isn't, that seems (relatively) harmless. On the other hand, we have at least one user reporting here (comment #9) that they see a significant performance

Re Comment #86: You don't have to wait. In terms of the released versions, the bug only existed in 3.6.14. The current version is 3.6.15, which was released specifically to address this problem (by temporarily backing out the other change that caused it). So you can safely update Firefox right

(In reply to comment #81) I seem to have a general problem with java-scripts since 3.6.14. [snip] You think this is related?? If the problem is really with *JavaScript*, then no -- Java and JavaScript are unrelated technologies (just with similar names). This bug relates to Java applets, not

(In reply to comment #64) The 3.6.15 we're releasing today does not fix this bug... Today's release is a re-release of 3.6.14 plus a fix for a bug that prevented many Java applets from starting up. A _different_ bug that prevented Java applets from starting up? Because this one does too
