Re: [Bug 359975] Re: evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts
I guess this has been fixed long ago. Not really long ago, but it is not a serious problem any more. By chance, I had this error just yesterday, after months of not seeing it, while printing almost simultaneously from two different evince instances. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359975 Title: evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/359975/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Francesco, if you have still such a problem and are able to reproduce it, please report a new bug, telling which version of Ubuntu you are using and assign it to GTK+2.0 if you are using Natty or older or to GTK+3.0 if you are using Oneiric. Thank you. Should it happen again, and should I be able to reproduce it, I will. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359975 Title: evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts (Printing requires keeping the mouse moving in the window of the app) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtk/+bug/359975/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
Re: [Bug 359975] Re: evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts
Happily using Mac OS X for printing, so I'm not bothered with Evince anymore. But thanks anyway to those who have been trying to fix it, and sorry about that to those who have been trying to use it. 2009/10/16 Peter Gervai g...@grin.hu I do not ubuntu :-) so maybe my comments aren't welcome, but since I'm following the life of this bug here as well as on gnome bugzilla I've observed the latest comments... I think this bug is important for evince usage (not grave though), but fixing it isn't easy. OTOH suggested workaround (lpr) isn't really good unless you conjure up how to set _all_ the printing options, which is (as far as I remember) not really possible. Printing without these is crappy at best, if not outright useless, considering the wide range of pdf material available, which may require different resolution, color mode, and optimalisations to set. I don't think it would be a good workaround, not to mention solution. -- evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359975 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. -- The best way to predict the future is to invent it. - Alan Kay http://www.galileon.co.uk/ -- evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359975 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

Ubuntu developers and I suppose Linux developers in general apparently don't really care about these little bugs that turn out to be huge usability stumbling blocks, just like they'd rather stick to a cumbersome form of software management that really only works well if you follow the exact guidelines set out for you rather than wanting to doing something like, oh, I don't know, updating to the latest version of a program before the next distribution is released. Nobody is stopping you from updating to the latest version of a program before the next distribution is released. You can always build from the source on your own. You can also run the latest distribution before it is released. But it's not always a simple crap to do that, because there can be a bunch of dependency changes, which might affect other parts of the system. This is why we have releases, where everything is hopefully in a somewhat stable state. Try running Gentoo if you want to be able to upgrade to the latest packages with little regard to how it affects the rest of the system. It's a lot of work to get everything working together. This is the work that the Ubuntu developers are doing. Face it, Windows and Mac may be broken in a variety of ways, but simple crap like this that prevents people from getting their work done, or makes them have to work harder to get their work done, would just never fly. If you are better served by Windows or Mac, then why are you messing around with Ubuntu? Just use what's best for you. -- evince sometimes yield error Error printing: Too many failed attempts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359975 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
