[Bug 1364492] [NEW] findutils uses nearly 100% CPU and memory resources
Public bug reported: findutils is using a find command, probably to auto-update indexing database. While this is normal behaviour, i found out that shortly after the indexing update started, findutils is using 100% of CPU resources (Haswell Pentium G3258), all of my system's memory (8GB RAM) and some of the swap, rendering the system completely unusable.

[Bug 1277502] [NEW] Firefox package is not updated for Trusty-updates repository
Public bug reported: For Precise, Quantal Saucy versions of Ubuntu, the 26.0+build2-0ubuntu0 version is available on the $(lsb_release -sc)-updates repository, and probably somewhere in the next days it will be updated to latest stable version 27.0 which is already available on http://www.mozilla.org . For the Trusty version, there is no firefox package available in the trusty-updates repository. Thus, if a Trusty user does not activate the trusty-proposed repositories, is left with an outdated version of the web browser. Given that Trusty is a development release, i think that it would be safe to assume that it would contain at least the same package versions with previous releases, if not latest.

[Bug 1242567] Re: Indication does not change when using XKB shortcut to change layout
@Sebastien: Up until 13.04 version, layout switching was handled by XKB ( http://www.x.org/wiki/XKB/ ) and was set to alt+shift as a default shortcut. Setting this through any DE's graphical keyboard configurator was the equivalent of the following command: setxkbmap -option grp:switch,grp:alt_shift_toggle,grp_led:scroll us,el For 13.10 and 14.04, layout switching is primarily handled by i-bus, so Ubuntu's graphical keyboard configurator is not about changing some XKB setting via setxkbmap command, but is about changing an i-bus setting. The point is that though there may not be a graphical keyboard configurator for XKB anymore, the setxkbmap command still works because it is a part of xorg and xorg is still installed. So, a common workaround for users is to use a setxkbmap command setting for layout switching. This way, the user avoids the effects of the #1218322 and #1226962 bugs. The #1218322 bug is now fixed. For the #1226962 bug things are also mainly ok, but there is still a problem with LibreOffice, so there still is a point using a setxkbmap command to set layout switching via XKB. What is happening is that when changing layouts via the shortcut set by a setxkbmap command, the indicator does not see that a change has been made. Sorry for the long reply, i hope this is clearer now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242567 Title: Indication does not change when using XKB shortcut to change layout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1242567/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for reply @Sebastien. I am running now the 0.0.0+13.10.20131010.1-0ubuntu1 version from saucy-proposed (i couldn't find it in trusty-proposed though, so i couldn't test it to 14.04 as well). The indication still does not change when i use the XKB shortcut to change layout. Neither does the selected item in the indicator menu. THe symptoms are exactly as in the original description. It gives the impression that the indicator reads only the i-bus status. I noticed that if i set the same shortcut for both the XKB and the i-bus (eg. alt+shift), then all changes are shown normally, but then i 'm affecterd by the bug #1226962 when using LibreOffice, so it seems that xhen i do that, the system gives priority to i-bus for the layout changes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1242567 Title: Indication does not change when using XKB shortcut to change layout To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-keyboard/+bug/1242567/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1242567] [NEW] Indication does not change when using XKB shortcut to change layout
Public bug reported: On my first Ubuntu installation (13.10 upgraded from 13.04), the XKB layout switching shortcut works in parallel with the ι-bus layout switching shortcut. The same stands for my 2nd installation (13.10 clean install). Most of the times i tend to use the XKB shortcut for layout change as it is more convenient. When using the XKB shortcut, the indication on the keyboard indicator does not change. The same stands when i hit the two layout change shortcuts one after another. For example, if i am typing in EN layout, hitting the XKB shortcut changes the layout to GR, but the indication remains as EN. Then, hitting the i-bus shortcut changes the indication to GR and layout remains to GR. Hitting again the XKB shortcut changes the layout to EN, but but the indication remains as GR and i have to hit again the i-bus shortcut to change back the indication to EN.

@ Dmitry: This is somewhat different, i don't mean that i can't change layout with some custom shortcut. I'm using the default shortcuts (super+space, shift+super+space) and these do not work anymore. But this is not the reason why i mentioned it, of course we can deal with that later. The reason was that prior to the upgrade through the PPA, when i was confirming the layout change with the mouse (i mean change the layout to Greek through super+space and then change it to Greek once more with the mouse), made the shortcuts work on Gedit Text Editor (but not on global shortcuts).

[Bug 1228422] Re: Severe regressions to typing in Greek, Russian, etc due to IBus
I have done some testing using different applications and different input mode settings on Ubuntu Saucy, and i notice that there are some differences concerning keyboard shortcuts, depending on the application used. Long story short, while on LibreOffice and Chromium Browser we can see a stable behavior regardless of the input mode used, Gedit seems to be reacting differently to some actions. I am attaching a screenshot of an analysis table for these tests, in hope that this will be helpful to the dev team. If more testing is needed, i 'll be glad to help out. On the matter that if the layout shortcut changes then it cannot be reverted back to default, i saw that when trying to set the layout shortcut back to Super+Space in the Text Entry Settings window, then the input is read as Mod4+Super+Hyper+Space, so one cannot revert to default any more. But when trying the exact same thing through System Settings Keyboard Shortcuts Typing, then the Super+Space shortcut is read correctly and the user can revert to default. Maybe there are some differences between the two setting modes? So that leaves the matter of the available layout changing shortcut. Please, let me explain briefly why this is so important. In many non-English documents, we can find a lot of words written in English, such as technological terms, names, brands, product model names, and even measurement units. This is not a problem for a non-English speaking but user as long as the user's language uses the latin alphabet. That is because at this case, English characters are a subset of the user's native layout. For example, a French user can type any English word using the French layout. This is not the case for Greek or Cyrillic alphabet language users, as no Latin characters are part of the Greek or Cyrillic layout. This means that in a single page of document, one may need to change layouts up to 100 times (50 from native to Latin and 50 back to native). That gets even worst when shortcuts like cut/copy/paste do not work in native layout, so additional layout changes must be made. So, it is clear that something that is used so often, should be as convenient as possible. That means thta the layout changing shortcut should: - Be enabled by just one hand (ideally the left one, as the right hand controls the Enter, Backspace, etc). - Contain as less keys as possible (preferably just one, two at the most), that are located close to each other. This sets a limit to the lower left side of the keyboard. The Alt+Shift is not considered an ideal solution, but due to its long time usage from a widows user, is achieved relatively easy. Even better alternative solutions, are the Ctrl+Shift shortcuts (offered also as an alternative on Windows), and plain Caps Lock key (available also in Windows machines via AutoHotKey application). I am referring to windows because a lot of users are dual booting, or even use windows machines in work environments, so there should be some compatibility of something used so much. My sincere apologies for the length of my comment and for pointing out things that may be obvious, my intention was just to make sure that a point haw been made about why this is an important bug, as it so far renders the 13.10 as unsuitable for everyday use. ** Attachment added: Analysis on using greek layout with different applications https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1228422/+attachment/3834215/+files/greek-layout-saucy.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1228422 Title: Severe regressions to typing in Greek, Russian, etc due to IBus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1228422/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1205713] Re: unable to type Greek characters to the dash
I'm sorry, i cannot understand what the phrase 'this bug is no resolve' means, does it mean that the bug *will not be resolved*, that *will not be resolved yet* or that *it cannot be resolved*? The situation now is that we no longer can change the keyboard layout with just one shortcut, but we have to use two. Also, we cannot set the shortcut just like eny other distribution to Alt+Shift or Caps Lock (that i use), but we have to use the Super key+ simething, so that every time we change the keyboard layout, the Launcher appears. One other thing, is that the keyboard indication is set to *En* and it does not change even if the keyboard layout changes to *Gr*. Ok, i'm truly sorry if that sounds (or reads) somewhat saucy (pun fully intended), but this really is not 'fix commited', this is hiding a problem while creating another, possibly bigger one. I would surely rather not having the option to type in Greek to the Dash, than adding two keys in my keyboard layout shortcut and not beeing able to see what my current layout is.

@ Brandon Sorry for the late responce, i have a serious case of lack of time lately. I tried the im-config -n xim workaround, but that didn' t work. The echo $XMODIFIERS command returned nothing when i checked. Then i tried the ibus-setup fix. That worked like a charm, thank you! The only thing i have noticed, is that when using the Ctrl+Space shortcut for the ibus, then the copy (ctrl+c), cut (ctrl+x) and paste (ctrl+v) shortcuts work only on English keyboard layout and not in Greek. Assigning the ibus on the Super+space shortcut, fixed that too. That of course causes the Launcher to show up for a second when switching layouts, but that's just a minor annoyance. Can we revert the ibus change so that we can check for the final fix? Alternatively, is there a way to assign a custom shortcut to the ibus?

Sorry for the late reply. I did not try to reproduce the bug for sometime now, i see that there is no issue at all at this time. Unfortunately i cannot point at the exact update that fixed this bug, but i can confirm that i can change the HUD binding using the Compizconfig Settings Manager.

[Bug 746761] Re: can't type characters with accent (dead keys)
I can confirm the reappearance of the bug for the 12.04 version. In detail, pressing the accent key shows the accent alone without waiting for the press of the accented letter key. As result, instead of typing the accented character as one character, two consecutive characters are typed, the accent and the letter to be accented.

[Bug 871986] Re: autohide of the Unity Launcher does not work. The launcher does not appear when moving the mouse on the left side of the screen
The autohide option does not work properly on my system. The launcher does not appear when mouse is eiither on the left side nor on the upper left corner. This happens at all reveal sensitivity settings from the system settings-appearance-behavior menu. All other unity settings is default (i have set a unity --reset script on startup). This happens independently of the window status on the display, even with no active window. The launcher is not revealing unless i press the alt+F1 keybinding.

[Bug 937621] [NEW] Altering HUD enabling keybinding has no effect
Public bug reported: Changing the key binding that enables the HUD from the ccsm settings finishes without errors but the keybinding that has been set does not activate HUD, unless no windows are active. Some of the keys or keybindings i tried are alt+space, ctrl+space, ctrl+shift+space, Lshift+Rshift, ctrl+alt+space, alt+Home, ctrl+Home, Fn+alt, fn+altgr, ctrl+ctrl and F12. All resulting as described above. Activation of the HUD happens only when no windows are active. When in default setting (alt key), HUD activation works perfectly. This happens on a 12.04 X86 installation both as virtualbox Guest in Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200 processor and Intel integrated graphics controller (82G33/G31 [8086:29c2] (rev 10))Host system, and as a test installation on a 8GB USB pendrive on that same system. I can reproduce that anytime, just by modifying the HUD activation keybinding from the ccsm relative setting. In both cases (virtualbox and test installation) Unity version is 5.4.0, compizconfig-settings-manager version is 0.9.5.92 and all updates are installed. Keyboard is Microsoft Comfort Curve 3000 (ID 045e:0780) working otherwise perfectly on Ubuntu 11.10 and other distros (Linux Mint Debian Edition-Gnome, Bodhi Linux-E17, Sabayon-KDE) that i occasionally may use.

[Bug 923749] Re: New push mouse offscreen feature really difficult to get
After falsely subscribing to bug 871986, i see that now i'm in the right place. After reading the comments on thiw bug, i confirm that it easier for the launcher to reveal after the adjustments proposed. I still however have to hit hard the left part of the screen to reveal the launcher, something that i don't consider a right setting, because of two reasons: 1. It is not an obvious decision to start hitting the left side of the screen. An obvious thing to do is to leave the cursor there for a little longer, something that sadly does not work. 2. It reminds me of the you just need a bigger hammer logic, of which i am no t a fan. I also want to point out that this cannot be solved when using 12.04 in virtualbox guest installation, as pressuring left with the mouse just a) exits the mouse off the guest OS onto the host OS if the host OS is on never hide launcher setting, or b) reveals the Host OS launcher if the host OS is on autohide or avoid window launcher setting. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/923749 Title: New push mouse offscreen feature really difficult to get To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/923749/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 923384] Re: HUD shows up when switching keyboard layouts with alt-shift
I also run into this issue (HUD showing when trying to switch keyboard layouts with alt+shift) and tried as a countermeasure to change the HUD enabling key combination using ccsm. Sadly none of the key bindings i tried (alt+space, ctrl+space, ctrl+shift+space, Lshift+Rshift, ctrl+alt+space, alt+Home, ctrl+Home, Fn+alt, fn+altgr, ctrl+ctrl are some of my tries) succeeded at that purpose. HUD is only enabled using the default (alt) enabling key. As you can understand, this is making writing bilingual texts (something i have to do very often) very difficult, so i am forced to totally disable this otherwise very nice feature of Unity. Please reconsider the priority of this bug, or otherwise please advise me on where (i mean which application) to file a bug report about not having the ability to change the HUD mapping. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/923384 Title: HUD shows up when switching keyboard layouts with alt-shift To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/923384/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
