 Is this bug reproducible with the latest Lucid packages ?

under lucid, when i attach the usb bluetooth dongle a small bluetooth
icon appears in the system tray.  when i click the mouse i get a
prompt (attached) asking me if i want to allow the device to connect,
if i allow it, nothing seems to happen.

if i then go and click on the bluetooth icon in the system tray it
allows me to connect to a new bluetooth device, and the logitech mouse
appears.  i select it and complete the wizard and voila it works!

thanks guys, you are my heroes! :)

I'm unable to reproduce any errors as i've nuked my upgraded 9.10

Sorry i can't help anymore; but this is a work machine and i coudn't

2009-11-01 Thread Julius Roberts
I have this same issue. Initially it was caused by hitting reply, and
now each time i try to start evo it starts and crashes out; the
following being the output if invoked from the CLI:

** (evolution:5659): CRITICAL **: atk_object_set_name: assertion `name != NULL’ 
failed
(about 7 or 8 times, followed by the Evo window starting up, asking me if i 
want to attempt to recover from a crash and then half a second later it 
disappears)
** (evolution:5659): CRITICAL **: atk_object_set_name: assertion `name != NULL’ 
failed
(a few more times then)
Segmentation fault

..and i’m dumped back out at the CLI.

I guess there’s no point saying that this is kinda urgent ;)

[Bug 368356] [NEW] mx5500 mouse doesn't work in Ubuntu 9.04

2009-04-27 Thread Julius Roberts
Public bug reported:

Hi there lovely bug fixers, you're the greatest!

I'm running Ubuntu 9.04.  Nothing happens after plugging the Logitech
mx5500 USB dongle.  I expect it to tell me what the device is, and then
magically ;) allow the mouse to work.  I don't mind if all the mouse
buttons don't work, even just emulating a standard 3 button mouse would
be fine.

If i do a lsusb, i see the following entries, one or all of which i
presume are related.  I have no other Logitech USB devices on this PC:

Bus 002 Device 007: ID 046d:c71c Logitech, Inc. 
Bus 002 Device 006: ID 046d:c71b Logitech, Inc. 
Bus 002 Device 005: ID 046d:0b06 Logitech, Inc. 

My problem seems most similar to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez/+bug/272352.  This says
the issue was resolved in bluez 4.12-0ubuntu4, but i have 4.32-0ubuntu4
and still have this issue?

Not sure which usb.ids i should be looking at, but if i search these files for 
my device i see nothing relevant?
hoo...@butterfly:/$ cat ./var/lib/misc/usb.ids | grep -iE 
'046d:c71c|046d:c71b|046d:0b06'
hoo...@butterfly:/$ cat ./usr/share/misc/usb.ids | grep -iE 
'046d:c71c|046d:c71b|046d:0b06'

Please let me know if i can provide any more info.  Kind regards, Jules

2008-11-23 Thread Julius Roberts
I should add that we can't get it working using SSL/TLS  we determined
that was a problem with our LDAP as well.  in other words, i can't
confirm evolution is working accessing an LDAP server using SSL/TLS

Jules

2008/11/21 reberhar [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 I had no luck. It did ask for the password unlike before, but after that it 
 claimed varous things, like no TLS, which I wasn't using. I was using SSL It 
 claimed an authentication error. It never allowed me to enter the password a 
 second time. I tried various ways of logging in.

 I have tried on the live 32 bit CD and my currently installed 64 bit
 8.10.

 I have no control over the LDAP server.

Okay, looks like evolution (2.24.1) is in the clear.  We have had a
close look at our LDAP server and the problem we were having lies
there; *not* with evolution.  Having resolved the LDAP server issues,
LDAP name lookup in evolution is now running fine.  Thanks for your

 I had this exact problem until I tried to ping the address book server
 from my linux machine, telling me it couldn't be found. From a windows
 machine it was found. One of the internal webservers are set up the
 same way - only windows-IP-resolution works, not DNS.

Unfortunately that is not the case in my instance; DNS is fine and
there are no issues with name resolution.  The server
(intranet.wilderness.org.au) exists and indeed i can access websites
running on the same server from my linux machine with no worries at
all.

2008-08-13 Thread Julius Roberts
Hi mate, ok, here's the deal:

my .xsession-errors had alot of content, i wasn't sure what was
relevant.  so i mv'd it to a backup to start again.
i set an alarm to alert 15 mins before an appointment, and every
minute after that.
I didn't get any alert at all.
thus far no .xsession-errors had been generated.
i played around with the gnome panel and tried to add an additional
notification area to my 2nd monitor, not much seemed to happen

created a user named test
logged in, started evolution and i set an alarm to alert 15 mins
before an appointment, and every minute after that.
I got the alarm OK, and the 'alarm baloon' (in the notificaion area)
dissapeared in about 5 seconds
It left a small clock icon in the notification area which when clicked
on, showed the current alarms.
cool

logged back in as me
on the 2nd monitor, there was an alarm clock, which showed me the active alarms.
after dismissing that alert
i didn't get any subsequent alerts nor did the clock reappear.
the alarms should have kept recurring all the way to the appointment
time, but there were none.
i had a look at the .xsession-errors and i've attached it

Hope that helps some, please let me know if i can do more

kind regards, Jules

[Bug 123282] Re: LDAP fails. Says it can't find the server, but the server is there and spelled correctly. Works in Windows. Problem is probably with the authentifiaction.

2008-08-11 Thread Julius Roberts
I can confirm the the bug descriptions, but not the exchange plugin
depedencies.

Ditto.  Is it reasonable for me to expect some kind of timely
resolution? :)

[Bug 256823] [NEW] evolution alarms last only seconds, no notification window

2008-08-11 Thread Julius Roberts
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

Runing Ubuntu 8.04 (Linux Oriole 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11
23:41:49 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux).  In Evolution 2.22.3.1 (default in
this distro) I can create alarms no worries, and at the predetermined
time they pop-up in the notification area.  Within seconds however, they
disappear and i simply miss most of them!  I'd like a window to pop up
and tell me about the alarm until i dismiss, or snooze etc.  This would
also notify me of past alarms if the PC was off when the alarm came due.

Re: [Bug 256823] Re: evolution alarms last only seconds, no notification window

2008-08-11 Thread Julius Roberts
Hi mate, thanks for your prompt reply.

  * Is this reproducible?
  * If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?

certainly.  I create a recurring appointment in Evolution, set an
alarm ok.  When the appointment nears the alarm time i get a very
short alarm in my notification area; lasts maybe 2 or 3 seconds,  Most
of the time i miss the appointment because i never see the alarm.  For
a long time i thought there were *no alarms* at all until i actually
saw one pop up momentarily and then disappear again.  I would expect
that the alarm would stay visible until i dismiss it (eg as in
outlook).

 The icon should be displayed until you click on it

This is certainly not the case, they dismiss themselves almost
instantly.

Thanks again, i hope we can work this out; it's a bit of an issue for
me as i can't rely on Evolution as a calendar app.
