[Bug 1893771] [NEW] gnome fonts too large / detected screen size incorrect
Public bug reported: Hi! after the latest update, I observe problems with the font size used by gdm and the gnome gui. It seems that the font size is now twice as large as before. This affects the login screen as well as elements of the gui (top bar, icon names on the desktop, pop up menus when right-clicking on the desktop). Fonts of standard applications (firefox, libreofffice, etc.) still have the correct size. I'm currently using a 43" 4K monitor. xpdyinfo correctly detects its resolution (3840x2160), but the detected screen size is obviously wrong (602x341 mm2, which would correspond to a 27" monitor). Please see attached screenshot. My NVidia Driver Version is: 440.100 The problem can be temporarily fixed by going to Settings->Displays, and then clicking "Scale 200%" and "Apply". A dialog appears and asks whether I would like to keep the setting. If I click "revert", all font sizes are now ok. Unfortunately the problem reappears after a reboot. Similar reports can be found under: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1268993/ubuntu-20-04-font-and-ui-elements-too-big-on-login Many thanks for your time!

Re: [Bug 1883234] Re: unix extensions not working?
Hello Andreas,Many thanks for the fast reply!I also had to set "client min protocol = NT1" and to start smbclient with "-m NT1", but it actually works exactly the way you said. I would never have found the solution without your kind help. Again, many thanks!!Maybe the fact that unix extensions are coupled to the protocol level should be mentioned in the samba documentation (man page of smb.conf). I did a fair amount of research on the net and could not find any hint about that.One last question: Is it possible to share files with correct file permissions under the current SMB3 protocol? I know the SMB protocol comes from the windows realm, but I think it is not completely unreasonable to use it to share files between linux boxes.Regards,Malte Kleemeier Ursprüngliche Nachricht Von: Andreas Hasenack <1883...@bugs.launchpad.net> Datum: 12.06.20 14:15 (GMT+01:00) An: malte.kleeme...@googlemail.com Betreff: [Bug 1883234] Re: unix extensions not working? Unix extensions only work for the SMB1 protocol, which has beendeprecated and is no longer used by default.

[Bug 1726064] [NEW] keyboard hanging after activating fcitx pinyin
Public bug reported: Release: Ubuntu 17.10 Package: fcitx 1:4.2.9.1-6 When I tried to activate fcitx pinyin input method after a fresh install of 17.10, keyboard immediately stopped working. After rebooting and logging in again, the system became completely unusable (mouse pointer on an empty black screen). This could be fixed by deleting ".xinputrc" in my home directory, but pinyin input still not working. Has anyone observed the same problem? ** Affects: fcitx (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1726064 Title: keyboard hanging after activating fcitx pinyin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fcitx/+bug/1726064/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 210741] Re: no way to read and write files on mounted samba share on hardy
Since I have not seen any new posts on this thread for some months, I would like to confirm the problems mentioned in the earlier bug reports: 1) After the upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04 I cannot access the files on a samba server any longer. When I try to mount the samba share by the following command line smbmount //SERVER/share /mnt/localmountpoint -o rw,username=my_username I get a permission denied error. I have been using this command for several years. I rechecked the permissions of /mnt/localmountpoint and they are ok. The server runs an older version of samba (2.x) with security = user and plaintext authentication. I cannot provide the exact configuration of this server because it is not administered by me. 2) All files on the server are still fully accessible when I use smbclient //SERVER/share. 3) When I tweak the SecurityFlags (as described in the readme file of the cifs kernel module) by echo 0x37 /proc/fs/cifs/SecurityFlags, I can mount the samba share by smbmount. After that I can see the files on the server, but I have no access to them (cannot read/write/create files, although the file permission listed by ls -al are ok). I have setup a minimal samba server on my box and found that the current cifs implementatation in the kernel has great difficulties when connecting to a samba server which requires plain text authentication (that is setting encrypt passwords = no in smb.conf). So far I have not been successful in mounting any share on this test server as long as it runs with the encrypt passwords = no-setting (I always got permission denied errors, tweaking the SecurityFlags had no effect). Everything worked fine when I turned on password encryption. When looking at the kernel source of the cifs module I could not find any code that would send passwords in plaintext to the samba server. There seems to be always some encryption taking place. The same issue is also discussed on http://www.nabble.com/No-connection-using-plain-text-password-td18611280.html where Bart Oldeman suggests a patch, which adds code for handling plain text authentication to the cifs module (http://lists.samba.org/archive/linux-cifs-client/2008-March/002815.html) Applying this patch and recompiling the cifs module resolved the problems (at least for me). I would be glad if the patch could be approved by the developers of cifs kernel module. If possible a corrected version of the kernel should distributed by Ubuntu soon.
