[Bug 903422] Re: Ubuntu does not work with Samsung Galaxy phones (Unable to open raw device 0)

2013-05-22 Thread Derek Simkowiak
There was recently a change to the adb tool. It now does authentication;
the user is prompted to allow a new computer when the phone is
connected to it. The old adb is not compatible.

This change is probably why it fails, even though MTP on the Samsung
Galaxy Nexus previously worked.

I used the new adb (with the authentication) to manually push files.
That worked fine. Trying the other forum posts (like changing the udev
rules) did not work for me.

It was very aggravating to get the cool new phone (Nexus 4) and then not
be able to transfer files to it.

[Bug 221363] Re: Policy Kit Unlock Buttons Greyed Out when using NX / VNC / LTSP

2011-09-12 Thread Derek Simkowiak
Milan said in #62: Have a look at files in /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/
and try to guess what are the files you need to edit. Then it's probably
useful to file bugs so that it's fixed upstream, if applicable.


What are the criteria to know what files need to be edited?  I saw 
org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends.policy and gdm.policy mentioned above.   
Are those the only two?

Would it be more correct to replace every allow_active with
allow_any in 100% of those files?  There are 25 files that say
allow_active in them.

I want to help fix this bug, which means filing a bug report for every
package that needs a revised policy file, like gdm and system-tools-
backends:

root@cst8:/usr/share/polkit-1/actions# dpkg -S gdm.policy 
gdm: /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/gdm.policy
root@cst8:/usr/share/polkit-1/actions# dpkg -S 
org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends.policy
system-tools-backends: 
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.SystemToolsBackends.policy
root@cst8:/usr/share/polkit-1/actions#

I just don't understand what criteria to use to know which other
packages should have a bug filed.

[Bug 846808] Re: PolicyKit button doesn't allow authenticating

2011-09-11 Thread Derek Simkowiak
First: I did not see Authentication agent listed when I ran gnome-
session-properties on my 11.04 server.  I did not see it on my Ubuntu
10.04 workstation, either.  Not sure what's up with that.

However, you did identify the root of the problem.  I did not mention
that I am using VNC.  When I log in locally (with a physical keyboard
and monitor), then I am able to Click to make changes and change my
hostname.

When I log in using a physical keyboard, it looks like this when I run
who (my username is ubuntu):

  ubuntu   tty8 2011-09-11 18:33 (:0)

But when I log in with VNC, it looks like this:

  ubuntu2011-09-11 18:32 (127.0.0.1:1)

I am guessing the difference between (:0) and (127.0.0.1:1) is why my
VNC session is not authorized to make changes.  So I am marking this bug
as invalid.

Thank you for your help. I'm off to read the PolicyKit documentation
now... but if you could give me a hint as to where I need to add
127.0.0.1:1 it would be much appreciated :)

[Bug 846808] [NEW] gnome-network-admin menu entry does not use gksu

2011-09-10 Thread Derek Simkowiak
Public bug reported:

I want a desktop GUI method to change my hostname.  So I apt-get install
gnome-network-admin.

But now when I go to System  Administration  Network, the program
network-admin says Not authorized to make changes.  I must manually
launch a shell and run gksu network-admin.  (This is using the admin
account created during install, which is a member of the admin and adm
groups.)

It should just prompt me for my password.  I see no way to edit the
system hostname without going to a shell.

[Bug 34813] Re: gedit fails to save files over smbfs/cifs

2009-09-03 Thread Derek Simkowiak
So, in summary:

- Affects the default text editor
- Open for 3.5 years now (!!!)
- Over 100 comments...
- Gedit blames CIFS.  CIFS (and VirtualBox) blames Gedit.  From virtualbox.org:

Q: I get an error Unexpected error: Text file busy. when trying to edit a 
file.
A: When using gedit, this can happen on shared folders. This is a bug in 
gedit, not VB. Use a different editor.


I'm working in a Big Organization with a CIO who's a Windows Lover.  I've 
used virtualization to get around SafeBoot and other Windows-only garbage.  I 
now have access to all the tools I know and love... *except* the text editor.  
Ye gods!

   Don't you want Ubuntu to integrate smoothly into a Windows-centric
environment?  See Bug #1.

   I agree with the many others who are stuck with this problem.  This
bug needs to be upgraded to Importance: High.
