[Bug 1250532] Re: Very Slow to Show Properties of a File (window dims out)

2015-06-13 Thread benmoreassynt
** Description changed:

  When I right lick on a file, in Nautilus, and then click properties, I'm
  experiencing a great deal of lag before the properties are displayed.
  
  It doesn't matter if the file is small or large; it takes about 10
  seconds before the properties are displayed, and the Nautilus window
  becomes dim during the wait.
  
  I've noticed this behavior since upgrading from Ubuntu 13.04 to 13.10,
  and have never experienced it prior (using the exact same hardware).

  My hard drive is very capable of pulling a file's properties quickly, so
  I'm reporting this as a bug in Nautilus (where I'm experiencing this
  issue).

[Bug 229573] Re: [wishlist]Thinkpad - Utility to enable/disable the trackpoint/trackpad

2008-05-12 Thread benmoreassynt
Thanks for your bug.

There is the Synaptics TouchPad util which seems very similar to what you 
require.
 
In Ubuntu, install gsynaptics. In Kubuntu, ksynaptics. You should find you can 
then add the applet to your panel.

Let me know if that resolves what you want.

[Bug 224520] Re: problem with inkscape

2008-04-29 Thread benmoreassynt
Hi,

Check that your user permissions on
/home/kawika/.inkscape/preferences.xml are correct. I have seen
configuration file permissions get changed in an Ubuntu update before
(in other applications).

The quickest way is like this:

In terminal type:

cd ~/.inkscape

ls -lah

You should see something like:

-rw-r--r--  1 kawiki kawiki  2165 2008-03-21 23:16 extension-errors.log
-rw-r--r--  1 kawiki kawiki 14385 2008-03-21 23:49 preferences.xml

If instead of kawiki kawiki you see root root, you need to change the ownership 
and group.
Type:

sudo chown kawiki preferences.xml

type in your admin password when prompted, then type

sudo chgrp kawiki preferences.xml

You now also need to make sure your permissions are writable by Inkscape.
Type
chmod 664 preferences.xml

If this solves your problem, please answer here, so the bug can be
closed.

[Bug 224521] Re: Firefox Crashed

2008-04-29 Thread benmoreassynt
This issue does not relate to Ubuntu as it is cross platform. I have not
been able to reproduce it in Firefox 3 (32bit).

It sounds like a bug with msnbc.com, rather than Firefox. However if
there is a genuine browser bug, it should be addressed to Mozilla
developers at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/. You will need to exactly
identify how and what is causing the browser crash there.

Regards.

Obvious typos corrected:

sudo chown -R username ~/.kde/share/apps/kate
sudo chown -R username ~/.kde/share/apps/katepart

I also had an issue the other day with kde totally locking me out after
a language update, requiring jiggery-pokery with apt-get and Gnome to
solve it. It's effected quite a few people. See
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=695073&page=2

So issues with non us_EN locale seem persistent. I've had these problems
since a fresh install of Feisty on a clean hard disk.

[Bug 173283] Re: Kate (?and Quanta and KDevelop user preferences) do not save

2008-02-27 Thread benmoreassynt
I've also resolved it. The particular files involved differed from those
mentioned by David Knippers and newsun.

The solution was:

sudo chown all files mentioned by David Knippers to your own username.
My settings still would not save.

Next

sudo chown -R username ~/.kde/share/apps kate
sudo chown -R username ~/.kde/share/apps katepart

This removes all settings files from root ownership and readonly status
for other users.

I can't see that there's ever a good reason why files in ~/.kde should
be owned by root, so I was happy to chown everything.

I'd be interested to know if all users (like me) use or have used
English locale settings set to something non-standard (ie not US) and/or
had the problem with borked text in the KDE menu. See

Hi David,

Brilliant useful post, thank you! I have not tried yet, but it sounds
exactly the same, so I am hopeful your solution will work for me.

I also had the locale en_CA issue with Kicker, so these problems all

Thanks for your reply. I am using the same versions of Gutsy, Kate and KDE as 
you.

I don't think I can reproduce this behaviour (however I'm not sure I
follow 100% what you mean). I do notice that the Kate custom colour
selector defaults to black though, so you have to drag the selector to a
'brighter' location each time you use it. After pressing OK in the color
selector the correct colour appears in the "Highlight Text Styles" tab,
but after pressing Apply and/or OK, the colour is not applied, and the
settings are lost.

[Bug 173283] Kate (?and Quanta and KDevelop user preferences do no save

2007-12-01 Thread benmoreassynt
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kate

At least two Ubuntu users have experienced a bug whereby Kate (and
possibly other text editors) will not save user preferences. In
particular, any attempt to customise code highlighting fails, sessions
are not saved on exit, attempts to customise toolbars fail.

See discussion here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=611348

For example, to reproduce problem with text highlighting:

1. Open Kate and open a code file (for example a PHP file)
2. Open Settings/Configure Kate
3. Select Fonts and Colours
4. Select Highlighting Text Styles, and make sure the highlight: dropdown 
corresponds to the type of code in the file you opened.
5. Make a change to the code highlighting. For instance, in PHP change the 
color of a function to red.
6. Press apply.
7. Press ok

Result: functions will be highlighted the old way. Returning to settings
will show that the old colour is still there.

That is an example of just one of the bugs. Any other settings changes
also seem not to save - esp customising the toolbars.
