[Bug 839157] Re: Bluetooth applet (OBEX send/browse) does not work anymore

2011-12-25 Thread quixote
For what it's worth, this bug seems to affect me too, running LinuxMint
Debian squeeze, and trying to connect via bluetooth to a Nokia N900. If
I run bluetooth-applet from the terminal, I get these messages:

[Bug 227753] Re: gvfs reports root partition 100% full

2009-02-07 Thread quixote
Patrick- Thanks for asking!  I've moved to a new laptop and 64-bit
Intrepid.  In normal usage, I have not had this problem with gvfs.  But
after the problems it caused with SimpleBackup, I've never dared to try
to use that program again.

I'd be willing to risk it if it would help :-)  Would it serve any
purpose to try?

[Bug 229144] Re: [hardy] screensaver fails to start and screen fails to completely black out

2009-02-07 Thread quixote
(Shriek!) Now I'm having the screensaver problem again with Intrepid!
Please at least give us a workaround!

I'm using 64-bit Intrepid, using my Pictures folder for the screensaver,
compiz is at the intermediate setting.  Somewhere on the forums I saw
the suggestion to disable unredirect windows in the compiz general
settings, but that hasn't fixed it.  Graphics is Intel GMA X4500.

I just found a workaround.  (Must be something about posting a problem.
I've been looking for this for ages.)  From PhilCash in this thread
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6680279 :

Find the dir used by one of the default screensavers and put your link
there.  For instance, cosmos is in
/usr/share/pixmaps/backgrounds/cosmos/

[CODE]sudo ln -s /full-path-to-desired-pictures/eg/astron-general/
/usr/share/pixmaps/backgrounds/cosmos/astron-general [/CODE]

[Bug 93281] Re: Suspend failed message gives false advice

2008-05-31 Thread quixote
I get that error message regularly in Hardy 8.04.  Your computer failed
to suspend. Check the help file for common problems.  It's definitely a
low priority because it doesn't actually seem to affect function.  But
what irritates me is that check help file business.

WHICH HELP FILE?  Maybe the term help file could be made into a link
to the right one.  Or it could be turned into the full path to the
relevant file.  The way it is, it's just frustrating.

By the way, I didn't get that message in Gutsy or Feisty.  Instead the
system just crashed.  So this is an improvement :D

After today's (May 15th) update, the screensaver seems to be working.
Keeping my fingers crossed.  Like rfvuhbtg, I've didn't have this
problem in feisty.  (I couldn't run gutsy with my weird graphics, so no
data there.)

2008-05-14 Thread quixote
After the most recent updates, I'm having the same problem.  Worked fine
before, then around May 10th I turned screensaving off because I needed
to see what was happening during some backup jobs.  Today I turned it
back on, but after the screen dims, it comes back up with the regular
background, not the screensaver.  (I'm using photos in the Pictures
folder.)

I should add that I'm using Hardy,  and have ATI Mobility Radeon 7500
graphics.  The screensaver has worked without any issues through all
three versions of Ubuntu (back to Dapper) that I've used in the past
couple of years.

[Bug 227753] Re: gvfs reports root partition 100% full

2008-05-11 Thread quixote
This is what finally worked to get my hard drive back:

All done as root:

umount gvfs-fuse-daemon

Change ownership of backup file generated by SimpleBackup on network
drive, and move to another location.

Change group of that network directory from 1000 to root.

remove that directory and all its subdirectories (#rm -r /mnt/network-
drive/backup)  It had no visible or hidden subdirs, but an ordinary
rmdir command kept saying it was not empty.

On my computer (not the network drive), remove .gvfs both in my user
home dir, and in root's home directory.

exit root.  reboot.

The gnome devs really need to get to work on this issue.  A filesystem
that can make your computer next to nonfunctional is not a minor bug.

[Bug 227753] [NEW] gvfs reports root partition 100% full

2008-05-07 Thread quixote
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs-fuse

This is a major problem since it prevents any operation that wants to
store to the filesystem, including /tmp.  gvfs seems to have decided
that one of my network drives is in my root partition.  That makes it
think the root partition is full.  (it isn't, really.)

A backup, made with Simple Backup, is in /mnt/mediavault/backup
/computer-backup-filename.ful .  That dir and backup now show up no
matter what.  I can't umount the partition, even using -f.  I moved the
backup out of that dir, and it still lists as being in that location,
although it no longer is.  In desperation, I tried to remove ~/.gvfs,
hoping that would straighten gvfs out, but it won't let me since the
resource is busy.

I'm running, 8.04.  gvfs-fuse 0.2.3-0ubuntu5

This is similar to, but not the same as these bugs:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/217389 root partition usage
reaches 100% without reason.  In that case extra backup files weren't
noticed and could be removed once they were.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-utils/+bug/211789 disk
usage analyzer shows twice disk capacity  Deselecting gvfs-fuse-daemon
and rebooting did not solve the problem for me.  Also, this bug is said
to be fixed upstream but whatever is causing my problem is not fixed
:(

How can I wake gvfs up to the fact that 2.2GB are NOT on my root
partition, but somewhere else entirely?!

[Bug 75324] Re: Gnome file chooser/selector is way to small

2008-04-21 Thread quixote
If it's been fixed, why in hell do I have a pathetically small file
selector box under Hardy 8.04?

One of the early commenters was right: this is one of the first
usability issues a new user bumps into.  If it annoys an ubuntu fanatic
like me, what's it doing to them?

And, no, sorry, I don't know enough to contribute to fixing the bug.
Nor do I know how to recompile gtk.  I'd just like a dialog window I can
resize THAT STAYS THAT WAY.  (Do I sound frustrated?  Really?)

If it's compiz's fault --and much as I like compiz on the whole -- how
do I turn it off?  Can I turn it off?

Honestly, this is such a visible and important usability issue that it
really needs to be dealt with faster than two years!

I wish I could fix it.  Unfortunately, all I can do is complain :(
