[Bug 2025523] [NEW] tracker3 taking 100% CPU for a long time
Public bug reported: /usr/libexec/tracker-extract-3 and /usr/libexec/tracker-miner-fs-3 are constantly taking 100% CPU, causing the machine to overheat and the fans to work overtime. This should not happen. What doesn't help: • Ubuntu Settings > Search > turn off search. • Restart the machine. The problem is that on the next boot, tracker3 restarts and again takes 100% of CPU. What does help: • kill -9 for both processes (until the next boot). • Disable tracker3 according to: https://www.linuxuprising.com/2019/07/how-to-completely-disable-tracker.html Description:Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS Release:22.04 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 Package: tracker-extract 3.3.0-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.19.0-46.47~22.04.1-generic 5.19.17 Uname: Linux 5.19.0-46-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu82.5 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass Date: Sat Jul 1 07:06:47 2023 ExecutablePath: /usr/libexec/tracker-extract-3 InstallationDate: Installed on 2022-08-28 (306 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS "Jammy Jellyfish" - Release amd64 (20220809.1) SourcePackage: tracker-miners UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: tracker-miners (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug jammy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to tracker-miners in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2025523 Title: tracker3 taking 100% CPU for a long time To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tracker-miners/+bug/2025523/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 2024424] [NEW] Right-click menu on dock doesn't scroll when it is long
Public bug reported: When you right-click on a "Favourite" in the dock, it shows a small menu relating to that app. For example, right-click on Nautilus to show the options "All Windows", "New Window", and the various Nautilus shortcuts. However, when the menu is long (I have many Nautilus shortcuts, so this happens with me), the top of the menu, which is the most important bit (for me, anyway, as I want "New Window") disappears above the screen. The attached screenshot shows the very top-left of my monitor after I've right-clicked on the Nautilus shortcut. As you can see, the top part of the menu has disappeared off the top. Unfortunately, this menu cannot be scrolled; there's no scrollbar, and the mouse wheel does nothing. The menu needs to be scrollable.

@seb128 — Hmm, maybe I'm wrong about it being maintained. It's just that it shows a lower level of compatibility in its Extensions listing. Sorry if I was wrong. I don't recall where specifically I have came across the recommendation for NG, but I found it referenced in several places when I was trying to solve another problem with Desktop Icons (it shows a permanent error that cannot be fixed). In any case, even if Desktop Icons is maintained, it lacks the features that NG has, so it would be much easier to just use the latter than to try to fix the former.

[Bug 1906420] [NEW] Please replace default Gnome extension "Desktop Icons" with "Desktop Icons NG (DING)" (by the same author)
Public bug reported: By default, Ubuntu installs the Gnome extension "Desktop Icons" [1] (by rastersoft). Unfortunately, this extension is now unmaintained, is problematic, and leads to several bugs, including but not limited to Bug #1901150 and Bug #1813441. The same author has created, and continues to maintain, the far superior "Desktop Icons NG (DING)" [2]. It solves a number of problems including the two aforementioned bugs. It's possible to disable, but not uninstall, "Desktop Icons", and then to install "Desktop Icons NG (DING)". I did this a while ago with great results. If Canonical replaces the former with the latter, not only will Ubuntu be using a better desktop manager, but also it will be able clear all related bugs at a stroke. This is a simple, cheap, quick and effective solution that will let the devs concentrate on more important tasks. Please give this serious consideration.

[Bug 1901150] Re: No "Are you sure?" question when deleting something from Desktop
I'm using Ubuntu 20.04. On my desktop, Delete (which moves the item to the Recycling bin) just deletes it. Shift+Delete (which deletes the item permanently) does ask. To me, this is correct behaviour and shouldn't change. But... I don't know if this has anything to do with the extension that is used to control the desktop. In Ubuntu, the default is the broken "Desktop Icons" [1], which should be replaced with the fixed "Desktop Icons NG (DING)" [2] (by the same author).

( 'a' )

CONFUSING_LINE="case esac"
Starting from the line with the command substitution, gedit thinks that
the rest of the file is within quotes — except those that are parts that
are actually within quotes! This makes it confusing to edit a large
script.
Thank you

[Bug 796076] Re: When run as root [gksudo gedit whatever] gedit tries to open a 2nd 'untitled document 1'
@samuel - Thanks for the function. Unfortunately, that only works from
the terminal; it doesn't work from Alt+F2.
For that reason, the simplest method is to create a new file (I call it
ggedit), place it in your path, and make it executable. The file
contains just one line:
gksudo gksudo gedit ${@}
Use ggedit (or whatever you call the script) instead of gksudo
gedit, and this will work from Alt+F2, the terminal, or anywhere else.

[Bug 1009607] [NEW] User Accounts does not delete all files when deleting a user with an encrypted folder
Public bug reported: System Settings User Accounts delete a user: If the user has an encrypted home folder, this action does not delete his (encrypted) files. This is a potential (though highly unlikely) security vulnerability, as recreating the user can reveal the previous files (as described below). How to duplicate: 1. Create a user with an encrypted folder. The easiest way to do this AFAIK is to install gnome-system tools. Start Users Groups Add (fill in details) Encrypt home folder to protect sensitive data. You can see that the user has an encrypted folder: (a) /home/newuser contains two files, viz. Access-Your-Private-Data.desktop and README.txt. (b) /home/.ecryptfs/newuser/.ecryptfs contains a few files. (c) /home/.ecryptfs/newuser/.Private contains a few encrypted files. 3. Log into the new user and create a new file with some information, for example a text file on the Desktop. 4. Log out of the new user. 5. Delete the user and his files. (a) If you do this from gnome-system-tools, this works correctly; it deletes /home/newuser and /home/.ecryptfs/newuser. (b) But, if you do it from System Settings User Accounts - Delete Files, although it deletes /home/newuser, it does not delete /home/.ecryptfs/newuser. 6. Recreate the new user with the same password as before. 7. Log into the new user; you will still see the previous file that you created.

Clark Everetts: Thank you for posting your work-around. I have just tested it with my WMF files. Unfortunately, as Libre Office crops larger WMF files, the saved-as pictures are also cropped, and I have no way around that. For me, the only work-around remains either running 10.04 in a virtual machine or booting into Windows. I clearly hear what you say about working to a deadline, as that affects me every month!

[Bug 1001570] [NEW] Regresson: Unable to import WMF images into GIMP, or convert them using wmf2xxx
Public bug reported: I have put the package on this bug as GIMP, but seeing the range of problems (described below), it is probably something else. SUMMARY: 1. In Lucid 10.04, GIMP would flawlessly import WMF files. 2. Starting Maverick 10.10, it would not work. 3. There was, at least, a work-around, in that the tools wmf2xxx could convert the files into a different format (e.g. EPS), which GIMP could import. 4. But with Precise 12.04, even that work-around fails. MORE INFORMATION: * When trying to open a file with GIMP, GIMP incorrectly recognises the WMF dimensions as having dimensions of -1x-1 (see attached screen-shot), and having negative X and Y ratios. GIMP will allow you to correct the width and height, but not the resolution, making importing impossible. * wmf2xxx fails with error code 1 but no error message. * convert (from ImageMagick) fails with error code 1 and the message: failed to scan file `t2.wmf' @ error/wmf.c/ReadWMFImage/186. * Surprisingly, Libre Office Writer and Draw are able to import WMF files. Unfortunately, Libre Office crops the images, so that they anyway cannot be used. This regression has been hanging around for 19 months, and really needs fixing. The only remaining work-around is to either boot into Windows or run 10.04 in a virtual machine, neither of which is an acceptable solution.

[Bug 995885] [NEW] Custom keyboard shortcuts do not work if they use the Super key
Public bug reported: Prior to Precise 12.04, you could use the Super key in shortcuts, for example Ctrl-Super-M. However, with 12.04, if you set a shortcut with Super, it simply does not work. There is no error message; it just doesn't do anything. To duplicate: First, ensure that zenity is installed (it should be, by default). Second, create the shortcut: 1. System Settings Keyboard Shortcuts Custom Shortcuts 2. Press +. 3. Name: Test 4. Command: zenity --info --title='Test' --text='Testing shortcuts' 5. Apply. 6. Click on Disabled. 7. Press Ctrl-Alt-M Third, test it: 1. Press Ctrl-Alt-M 2. A dialogue displays. 3. Close the dialogue. Fourth, use the Super key: 1. Click where it says Ctrl-Alt-M 2. Press Ctrl-Super-M Fifth, test it again: 1. Press Ctrl-Super-M 2. Nothing happens. What should happen: A dialogue displays.
