Yes, this is no longer a problem.  You can close the bug.

This bug concerned how Thunderbird and Password Manager worked together.

The "Password Manager" was more trouble than it is worth, so I don't 
have it installed any more.

Yes, this bug has been fixed, I tested it in Thunderbird just now.
It is no longer a problem.

I have had much worse bugs in Linux since I reported this one.
I have had so many that I don't bother reporting bugs any more.

[Bug 575623] Re: Advanced Topics → About U sers and Groups links to a local file

2010-06-14 Thread Martin Sondergaard
I'm using Kubuntu 10.04, and the link doesn't work for me.  When I click
on the link, nothing happens at all.  Not when I use Firefox, which is
my preferred web browser.

There is a Help app in the KDE menu, but this seems not to be related to
the Ubuntu website, it does not show the same content.  So when you said
in that system help, the link to the base-passwd page works, this only
works in Ubuntu, not in Kubuntu. I cannot find a Help application in
Kubuntu which is able to open the link.

Perhaps this issue can be fixed by providing a Help application for
Kubuntu which shows the same content as the website.  I think that there
may be one for Ubuntu with Gnome already.

The file /usr/share/doc/base-passwd/users-and-groups.html does exist on my 
Kubuntu system, and if I use Dolphin to browse to the file, then I can open it.
Also, I have just discovered that if I open Konqueror and use that to view the 
official Ubuntu website, then I can open the link; it opens the local file.  So 
perhaps the issue can be fixed by adding a sentence to the website that says 
that if Kubuntu users cannot open the link with Firefox then try it with 
Konqueror.

Broken links on the Ubuntu website seems to be a persistent problem.  I
reported similar bugs in about 2007.  Other people were reporting the
problem then too.  The broken links were caused by links to local files,
that would not open, like this broken link reported here.  And when the
broken links were reported, the bug reports were met with a similar
response : a statement that the broken link would not be fixed.  I guess
that the bug was then forgotten by the Ubuntu docs developers.

[Bug 345096] Re: No Sound In Flash

2009-08-31 Thread Martin Sondergaard
I'm having this same problem with Kubuntu 9.04, (AMD64 version).  Jaunty.
It seems to be mostly people with 64-bit Kubuntu who have this problem.

Flash videos in Firefox and Konqueror had no sound.  Amarok sound was
fine.

Here is the work-around that I used.
I used K-Mixer, from the system tray, to change the channel PCM to maximum.
(I then restarted Firefox, but this didn't work, sound was still off.)
I then shut down my computer, and restarted.  This worked.  My sound is fine 
now.

As this problem still exists, I am changing the Status of this bug to
Confirmed.

Are you thinking that the permissions of the file bookmarks.xml change
when Dolphin starts up, regardless of whether Dolphin writes to this
file?

Or are you thinking that if Dolphin is run with sudo, then its
impossible for Dolphin to create a file which has permissions set so
that everyone can write to it?

[Bug 267147] Re: Enter your password repeated 100 times.

2008-10-29 Thread Martin Sondergaard
I now realize that it would ask me for my password repeatedly because
Password Manager was not functioning.  It was not functioning because I
had forgotten the correct password for Password Manager, and I always
entered an incorrect one.

Of course, its incorrect for Thunderbird to ask for the password
repeatedly.  But its no longer a problem for me because I have reset the
password for Password Manager, and I can remember this password.  This
makes Thunderbird work much better.

[Bug 267147] [NEW] Enter your password repeated 100 times.

2008-09-06 Thread Martin Sondergaard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

I have 5 email accounts.  But when I try to receive emails, it always asks for 
my password about a dozen times.
I use Password Manager, but it still asks me for passwords for my various email 
accounts.

I left Thunderbird open overnight.  The next day it had over 100 dialog boxes 
open asking me for a password.
The title bar of one of them said Enter your password: 104.

I clicked the Cancel button for over 80 of them.  At number 19 it
got stuck, and would not exit from this dialog box.  Both the Cancel
and OK buttons got no response.  And I could not exit from
Thunderbird, which is its normal behaviour when its waiting for a
password, but which was a problem at this time.  I had to use KDE
System Guard to kill the process.

I am using Thunderbird 2.0.0.16 with Kubuntu 8.04.1.

[Bug 267154] [NEW] Password Manager is ignored.

2008-09-06 Thread Martin Sondergaard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

I have 5 email accounts.  
When I try to receive emails, it always asks for my password for each account.

I have put a password in Password Manager, but this doesn't work.   When
I click on Get Mail to get mail for all accounts, it asks me for the
Password Manager password.  But then it also asks me for a password for
each email account.  The Password Manager is ignored.

Also, it sometimes says Sending the passsword did not succeed. ... Mail Server 
... responded Could not determine server.  It says this for each account.  
Despite these messages saying it did not succeed, it *does* manage to download 
emails.  So this error message appears to be unnecessary.
(I think I should report this as a separate bug.)

[Bug 264142] Re: Thunderbird will not display emails any more!

2008-09-04 Thread Martin Sondergaard
Since I submitted this bug report, I have managed to get my copy of
Thunderbird working again.

In the screenshot, you can just see that the left-hand border looks a
bit wider than the right-hand border.

There is normally a narrow vertical bar that separates the list of
folders, on the left, and the list of emails, on the right.  This bar
had moved to the extreme left of the main window, and had merged with
the border of the window.

I was able to use my mouse to separate the vertical bar from the border
of the window.  I was then able to move it to where it should be, so
that the list of folders appeared on its left, and the list of emails
appeared on its right.

I think this problem was initially caused by a fault in my mouse, or in
software that controls my mouse.  This is not under the control of
Thunderbird developers.

Perhaps this sort of problem, with the vertical bar disappearing and
with no visible way to get it back, could be prevented.  There could be
a minimum gap of 20 pixels between the vertical bar and the left-hand
border.

Or possibly there could be an item in the View menu to restore the view
to normal.

2008-09-02 Thread Martin Sondergaard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

While I was using Thunderbird, the vertical border between the list of
folders and the list of emails moved, as I moved my mouse.  It moved
with my mouse.  But the mouse button was *not* being held down.  Then
the border moved far to the right, and could not be moved back.  Then
the view changed so that only the HTML page introducing Thunderbird was
visible.  (The page with the header Thunderbird Mail - Local Folders.)

I cannot change this view.  So I cannot see any emails, or even a list
of folders.  Rebooting doesn't help.  My copy of Thunderbird is now
completely non-functional.  Its useless.

[Bug 263429] Re: Kubuntu Thunderbird menu option Run Filters on Folder fails to work.

2008-09-02 Thread Martin Sondergaard
The same bug also affects Thunderbird in Windows XP.  I.e. when I try to
run the menu option Run Filters on Folder, this does nothing at all,
in Windows XP too.

I have similar filters in Thunderbird in Windows XP and in Linux, and similar 
account details.
I don't know if this bug is specific to these details, or if it affects 
everyone.

The menu item with the problem is only needed to test Thunderbird to see
if the Filters work, when using Thunderbird for the first time.  So
possibly this bug is only seen by people new to Thunderbird.  These
people are probably unlikely to report a bug.

(Only this Run Filters on Folder menu item fails to work in Windows.
The other menu item, Run Junk Mail Controls on Folder, works fine in
Windows.)

I am using Thunderbird 2.0.0.16 for Windows, with an up-to-date version
of Windows XP.

[Bug 263429] [NEW] Kubuntu Thunderbird menu option Run Filters on Folder fails to work.

2008-08-31 Thread Martin Sondergaard
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

I'm using Thunderbird 2.0.0.16, with Kubuntu 8.04.1.

The menu option Tools, Run Filters on Folder doesn't work.  
It does nothing.

The folder that was highlighted when I clicked on the option was the
Inbox, and it had emails that should have been moved by the filters.
But they were not moved.

I had to run the filters by using the Message Filters dialogue box,
and clicking on the button Run Now.  This button works fine.  So the
Filters can work, its just the menu option that didn't work.

Also the menu option Tools, Run Junk Mail Controls on Folder doesn't work. 
It does nothing.  (I'm reporting it here in this single bug report because it 
may be a related bug.)
I tried creating a folder named Junk, (because there isn't one by default) 
but this made no difference.  This menu option still doesn't work.

[Bug 27508] Re: Only 60 Hz display refresh available from gnome screen resolution utility

2007-07-09 Thread Martin Sondergaard
I have a similar problem, with a different graphics system.
Could this be related to the bug reported here?
If not, I might report it elsewhere.

I have a SiS 730 graphics system, which means its on-board graphics,
on a SiS motherboard.  I think its not a very good graphics system.

The highest resolution I can get is 1280 * 1024, and its only 60 Hz!
I am using Ubuntu 7.4.

I have a dual-boot system, so I can boot into Windows XP on the same computer.
In Windows XP, I can get 1280 * 1024 at 60 Hz or 75 Hz or 85 Hz.
In Windows XP I can also get 1600 * 1200 at various frequencies up to 75 Hz.

I must admit that the good resolutions and frequencies that I can get 
in Windows XP are only possible when using 16 bit color depth.  
I.e. 16 bits per pixel.  
When I set color depth to 32 bits per pixel then I can only 
get 1280 * 1024 at 60 Hz, the same as in Ubuntu.
(I don't know if this is relevant or not, it may not be.)

My monitor is not the problem, it is capable of much better.
When I use it on another computer, it can use 1600 * 1200 at 100 Hz.

This may not count as a bug.  It may just be that the app in Gnome 
for changing the monitor resolution assumes that everyone 
wants to use 32 bit color depth.
This app doesn't offer me the ability to change the color depth.

But for me personally, with my graphics system,
I'd like to be offered a higher refresh rate than 60 Hz,
even if I have to accept a lower color depth with it.

I have heard that I can probably fix this problem by editing xorg.conf.
That may be able to solve my problem.
But I wonder if this is a bug, and whether it is likely to be fixed.
I'm a Linux newbie, so I'm curious about whether this is a bug,
and what happens when a bug is reported.

If anyone wants to see the contents of my config file, 
tell me what to type into the terminal.

so I thought this meant that my system had just been upgraded.
The message was not actually true.  So thats a bug.
It failed to say that a new version was available.

I have seen it written, elsewhere in this bug system, 
that this failure to update Ubuntu can happen
when the update server is down for scheduled maintenance.
For the server to be unavailable sometimes is ok,
but there needs to be a proper error-message saying
that this is what the situation is.

[Bug 89432] Re: update-manager -c wont work for upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10

2007-07-05 Thread Martin Sondergaard
I had the same problem.  I think its the same one.

I reported it in Question #9122 in update-manager in ubuntu.
Its a question, not a bug report.

I started update-manager from the Gnome menu,
and left it running, thinking it would update my software
while I was away.
I came back after a few hours, and saw that it said
my system is up-to-date.  It didn't say a new release is available.

So I took this to mean that it had updated my system.
But I wasn't sure, so I sent in a question about this, #9122.

[Bug 123668] Can't print to the Network Printer.

2007-07-02 Thread Martin Sondergaard
Public bug reported:

Trying to print from gedit, I go this message in the terminal: 
(gedit:26724): GnomePrint-WARNING **: Could not create filter from description 
'frgba': filter 'frgba' is unknown

My printer is on the network, on a PC running Windows XP.  
The network seems to be responding ok to other things.
I have set Windows to share the printer.
Windows manages to share the internet connection ok, but not the printer.

I have just seen this same error message in another bug report on this
website.

I'd like to tell you which version of Ubuntu I have, but I can't find out due 
to another bug.
 System, About Ubuntu opens a Yelp file that says Thank you for your 
interest 
in Ubuntu 6.06..  But I've just updated Ubuntu, two days ago, with the Update 
Manager.  
So why is it such an old version?  Or is it now a new version, with an old Yelp 
file 
thats opened when I use System, About?  
I don't know if it is still version 6.06 or if it has been updated.
