[Bug 203782] Re: Support low color depth to improve speed
I'm using the backported vinagre, which helps. But I have a question: Is it possible to set a lower color as the default? I'm guessing, if some command line call could be passed for low color, that the default low-color setting could be set via gconf-editor at /desktop/gnome/url- handlers/vnc/command. Right now it's vinagre %s. I'm trying to help my dad half-way across the U.S., and for some reason we can't get any vnc to work except when he shares his desktop through Empathy. Empathy then calls vinagre, and vinagre defaults to maximum colors; this makes helping him nearly impossible, and it's taking up my entire winter break. If there's a way to make that default to low color, I'd be one happy unpaid tech slave. -- Support low color depth to improve speed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/203782 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 359862] Re: package acroread 8.1.3-0medibuntu0.8.10.2 failed to install
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 359518 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359518 I ran into this problem last night, and here's my hasty work-around: Purge all the currently installed acroread packages. There are three acroread files in /var/apt/archives that need to be forefully removed: /var/cache/apt/archives/acroread-dictionary-en_8.1.3-0medibuntu0.8.10.2_i386.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/acroread-l10n-en_8.1.3-0medibuntu0.8.10.2_i386.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/acroread_9.1.0-7intrepid1_i386.deb This can be done with: sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives/acroread* *NOTE: If you're not familiar or comfortable with sudo rm -rf, don't ever touch this command -- its the command-line equivalent of a wildfire, tsunami, hurricane, tornado, and famine, and leaves nothing behind.* Then run sudo apt-get update And sudo apt-get install acroread You'll be asked to configure it, but it then installs without issue. -- package acroread 8.1.3-0medibuntu0.8.10.2 failed to install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359862 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 291242] Re: NetworkManager 0.7 does not recognize p12 keys
Just wanted to add that I've managed to get this to work at our university. It took some changes from the previous procedures -- a .pem needed to be made of a key, and the university's root certificate needed a little tweak, but after that, it's connecting just right. If only UVA'a secure network was more stable. I'm going to update http://uvalug.ue8.org/wiki/Cavalier_Wireless_with_Network_Manager when I get the chance, and hopefully those instructions will be of help to some others. -- NetworkManager 0.7 does not recognize p12 keys https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291242 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 280395] Re: Synaptics quick search and search button conflict
I was coming on here to file the same bug, and was beaten to it. It should be a simple enough tweak for synaptic to just clear Quick Search whenever Search is opened. The way it is now can be especially confusing to new users, non-computer-savvy users, and oldsters like my dad who uses Linux but is still trying to figure out what the purple chicken is about (Pidgin). -- Synaptics quick search and search button conflict https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280395 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
