[Bug 1075923] Re: nautilus hangs copying large directories from a samba share
Bug exists with Thunar in 13.04 64-bit up-to-date Xubuntu. The bug likely also crashes libreoffice (3.x and 4.x) when it wants to save a file that you opened on the samba share. Workaround for that: save on the local drive and copy to the share afterwards. That may not work, but at least you'll have your document. NB mount workaround will be a problem if you do not have root privileges. Then try FTP, or if you have dual boot save to a place where Windows can access your data. Then reboot and use Windows to copy to the shared drive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075923 Title: nautilus hangs copying large directories from a samba share To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gvfs/+bug/1075923/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 631088] Re: Incompatibilty with Windows font Deja Vu Sans 9.9990234375 makes evince menu unreadable
Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 LTS, upgraded from Dapper Pango problem every now and then also halts at system boot just before the graphic screen appears. Only restart helps. This has happened 3 or 4 times at irregular intervals. Message on the screen could not be found in logs, so unfortunately this info is not extensive: message: unknown:279 Pango-WARNING **: scaled font status is: out-of-memory unknown:279 Pango-WARNING **: shaping failure, expect ugly output I also saw that the Deja Vu Sans font was mentioned as the offending font, that is why I thought that this thread was the most appropriate. Reboot and normal login gave the same problem. The only (!) workaround I could find was: reboot (ctrl-alt-del) start in system recovery mode. Choose normal start. Login. Type startx Next reboot all works fine, that is why I could not exactly repeat the message. This is not the first problem I have with pango in combination with Windows fonts. I also had squares instead of text at startup, which only disappeared after long waiting (see http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu- b...@lists.ubuntu.com/msg2656512.html). I think that pango needs some serious attention. Both problems could put people off who are new to ubuntu.

In addition to previous post (#19): I compressed and extracted all contents from whole /usr/share/fonts/msttcorefonts from a computer with a working login screen. This trick worked ONCE. After that I had the same frustrating login window with squares. I know how to login, because I did so many times before. In a multi-user system this would be a killer.

The same happened to me. Observations: No error messages in syslog The monitor menu says it still has signal (although black), switching with ctrl-alt-F1 etc did not work. Remote shell is possible, but not remote NX session. Obviously something with the graphical shell. Remotely monitored: in top Xorg takes 100% CPU and the process cannot be killed even with sudo.

[Bug 215499] Re: Nautilus not preserving timestamps
Gnome-bugzilla is too high-level for the average ubuntu user (like me) Therefore I truly hope that the resolution of this bug will be used for an updated package in ubuntu 8.04 LTS given its LTS status. Nautilus should preserve timestamp by default wherever possible, in local system file copying (Ext3, fat32, NTFS, all FS where possible, workaround: gnome commander) and (s)ftp (workaround: gftp). If other gnome programs and command line can do it, Nautilus should be able to do it as well. If there were no workarounds available I would have to switch to windows for file copying, because I do not want to lose timestamp info. I don't see the the advantage of NOT preserving the timestamp, but if there would be an advantage this should only be possible as an option, and certainly not by default. -- Nautilus not preserving timestamps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215499 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
