[Bug 378783] Re: xdg-open *.desktop opens text editor

2016-06-02 Thread skierpage
re: comment #15 In Kubuntu 16.04, xdg-open is a bash script that determines your desktop environment (starting with the value of $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP) and calls the file opener for that desktop. For XFCE that appears to be exo-open. So run exo-open in debug mode to see what's going on. >

2014-06-12 Thread skierpage
Ubuntu 14.04 just updated Firefox to 30.0 and for the first time I'm seeing this problem. `top -H` shows two mpegaudioparse0/1 threads at 98.6 and 96.6 %CPU. I have totem and totem-mozilla packages installed. Confusingly, Totem doesn't appear in about:addons Plugins, but if I click the _More_

[Bug 1327910] [NEW] gnome-disks should display a copyable disk UUID

2014-06-08 Thread skierpage
Public bug reported: I needed to get the UUID of my swap partition (to compare and/or supply it to the `swapon` command). So I ran Ubuntu `disks`. When I click my swap partition, Disks shows some useful info about the partition (which I can copy, yay, but only field-by-field, boo!). But the

2014-06-08 Thread skierpage
This problem remains in Ubuntu 14.04. Pressing F1 in the Disks window now brings up some help (yay!), but GNOME Help » Hardware » Disks storage » Manage volumes and partitions is light on details and says nothing about these icon badges. Besides giving these badges a tooltip, the panel

2014-06-08 Thread skierpage
To correct myself, the UUID in gears icon Edit partition Type dropdown Linux Swap (0657fblah-blah-blah) seems to be the UUID for the type of partition, not the partition found on disk. So there seems to be no way to determine disk UUID from gnome-disks, let alone copy it. -- You received this

2014-04-27 Thread skierpage
This happened to me in Ubuntu 14.04. Clicking the disk icon for the drive in the Unity dock silently fails, because the partition is already mounted. I had to switch back to the other session and manually unmount the drive. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

[Bug 1247317] [NEW] Document Viewer help references non-existent File menu

2013-11-01 Thread skierpage
Public bug reported: Document Viewer doesn't have any menus, they've migrated to its Gear icon. But the help for it, I think /usr/share/help/C/evince/ , is full of references to Click File ▸ Print. These are all completely incorrect in Ubuntu, there's no File menu. (And the Unity HUD doesn't

The HUD doesn't work for evince (bug 1088778 ?) , and the help for evince clearly states in many places to click a non-existent File Print (bug 1247317). Together they make the absence of a Print button a bigger issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu

2012-04-29 Thread skierpage
I'm running Kubuntu 12.04 (precise) amd64 , and I found the obsolete defoma, x-ttcidfont-conf, and psfontmgr packages on my system, even though my system's packages include the libpango1.0-0 version 1.30.0-0ubuntu2 mentioned here that supposedly drops these dependencies. It turns out I also had
