[Bug 296937] [NEW] Firefox not rendering pages from Windows web server correctly
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox-3.0 Firefox 3.0.3 on Ubuntu 10.4 is rendering the same HTML page differently depending on which server it gets the page from, and if it gets the page from a Windows server, it's not rendering the page correctly. Now, I'm no more a fan of Windows than the next Ubuntu user, but it's not practical (yet) to avoid every site hosted on a Windows server. I have attached a screenshot showing what the page looks like when it's served up by Windows [1], and I'll attach another screenshot showing the exact same page pulled from a Linux server.[2] Note, for example, that when the page is pulled from the Windows server the CSS for displaying the borders between cells is not honored for all of the cells ("Jim's Juice" and "Crocinic Acid" are in separate cells, but you can't tell that from what Firefox displays - though you can if you look at the HTML source).

[Bug 132350] Re: Mozilla-thunderbird does not save drafts
I was tempted to create a new bug report, as this one does not exactly match the behavior I've observed with Thunderbird (which does save drafts -- just not all the time). Nor is 190877 the same (the reporter for that issue was trying to override default draft-saving behavior for multiple accounts, and I'm not trying to do that). Nevertheless, those two issues are close enough that I strongly suspect an attempt to create a new bug report would be marked as a duplicate of one of these, so I'll start off by adding my observations, and if encouraged to do so, will create a separate issue. Generally, saving a draft in Thunderbird does work for me, but occasionally TB will lose a draft, usually (always?) right after bringing up the draft, editing it, saving it, and closing the window for the draft. Happened again this morning. I had a message which had been sitting in the Drafts folder for at least a couple of weeks. I brought it up with a double-click, added a subject line, and then selected Save from the File menu. At this point I was asked for the password for another IMAP account than the one in whose Drafts folder this message lived. I assumed that it was just a coincidence that TB had decided to check for new messages for that account, but given what happened subsequently, I'm not so sure that assumption was correct. Since I didn't want the draft to be moved to the Drafts folder for the other account, in case my assumption wasn't right (why would TB want to do that?) I clicked Cancel to the password request. Then I closed the window for the draft message which I thought I had just saved. But then I noticed that the message was no longer in the drafts folder. Fortunately I take nightly backups of all my systems, but TB should not just throw away a message. I used to write email gateway software, and at the very top of the "no-no" list is throwing away a piece of mail silently. I would regard this is as a critical bug.

[Bug 231683] Re: Printer Dialogue doesn't work properly
I stumbled across the same problem, then I noticed that this feature has been moved to the Options tab (which is unfortunate, since I use this frequently, and the tab selection isn't sticky). Another puzzling thing is that in your screenshot you have "Markierung" where I have "Current" so something seems to have been lost in translation (my "Current" is greyed out, so I guess either that feature has also gone away, or by "Current" they really mean "Current Selection"). In any case, I'd say they were drinking too much beer when they decided to release this beta (and when it was decided to include a beta version of Firefox in the release version of Ubuntu). Don't get your hopes up now that you know where the feature lives now: it's badly broken (only prints the first line or so -- or sometimes nothing at all) as other bug reports document. -- Printer Dialogue doesn't work properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231683 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 237612] Re: Heron freezing with latest kernel (2.6.24-18)
Just to make this issue more intriguing, I thought I should note that in researching the problem I came across cases of three separate Ubuntu users whose system was hosed when they updated to 2.6.24-18-generic, and who reported that they solved the problem by (are you sitting down?) deleting the older kernel images! http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=818241 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=818608 Now, I'm having a hard time understanding how just having the bytes for the images sitting there in the file system could possibly cause a computer to freeze up so consistently. At first I conjured up far- fetched theories like corrupted file systems with garbled cross links between the blocks for the image files. But as wildly improbable as that would be for a single case, the odds against that happening to three separate users are beyond astronomical. I should point out that for at least one (perhaps all) of these three cases the users got no better results with the solution I used, which was to just pick the older kernel from the grub menu, so I'm not really sure how much commonality there is between the bug(s) I ran into and their situations. I would be *very* interested in any light anyone can shed explaining (rationally, not "it's just voodoo") how the presence of older kernel images could possibly affect the behavior of the computer in any way. -- Heron freezing with latest kernel (2.6.24-18) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237612 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

Not sure whether you were directing this request to me or to Daz (or both), but in any case while the instructions to which you link appear to have plenty of useful information about juggling Firefox profiles, they don't address the issue to which I was referring. I've seen estimates that there are over 8 million Ubuntu users. I'd be surprised if as many as 8,000 of them (.1%) have a sufficiently thorough understanding of how the package management system works to know the answers to all of the following questions: 1. If someone asks me to install a package on my Ubuntu machine and it doesn't show up in Synaptic's list of available packages, what do I do? 2. If I need to manipulate the list of package sources, how do I know which ones to trust? 3. If I need to add sources for packages, how do the sources interact with each other? 4. What are the possible drawbacks to adding package sources? 5. If I remove sources, what happens to the packages I got from those sources? 6. What bad things can happen if I install software without going through the package management system? 7. What are all of the things I could do to cause the package management system to stop working correctly? 8. What do I do to fix the package management system if it stops working correctly? Surely the Ubuntu team wants to get bug feedback from a broader community than this elite subset of Ubuntu gurus. I'm definitely not in that group, but these are questions that cross my mind when I'm asked to try the latest beta of some program to see if the bugs are fixed, and I know I've got plenty of company. I've asked on more than one occasion for someone to direct me to documentation which addresses these questions comprehensively, and I'm inclined to think that such documentation doesn't exist, based on the lack of response.

[Bug 237612] Re: Heron freezing with latest kernel (2.6.24-18)
An update on the reports of similar lockups with the latest kernel: one of the three users described above as having solved the problem by eliminating the older kernel images did some additional experimenting and reported the following sequence. First he re-installed 2.6.24-17 kernel image and headers and rebooted into that kernel. His system was hosed. Next he removed the kernel image for 2.6.24-18 and rebooted back into 2.6.24-17. System still didn't work. Then he removed the kernel headers for 2.6.24-18 and rebooted back into 2.6.24-17. System working perfectly. I post this information not because I understand how the presence of older header files could affect system behavior (I don't), but in the hopes that the maintainers who know more about the kernel and the package management system than I do will find useful clues in it. In contrast with the issue tracking systems used for the software I write myself, where the users of the software have adequate means for communicating the severity of a problem, it doesn't appear that I have any way of setting the "Importance" value for bugs that I file against Ubuntu. It seems like a broken kernel that freezes the whole system for a bunch of users would merit more urgent attention than (for example) cosmetic flaws. What can I as a mere mortal do differently when I file a bug report for a serious show-stopper like this in order to get the attention of those doing triage on the incoming reports?

[Bug 296937] Re: Firefox not rendering pages from Windows web server correctly
I'm sorry, but the machine on which this behavior occurs is my main production workstation, and I'm reluctant to upgrade it, given that the last time I tried to upgrade an Ubuntu system from 8.04 to 8.10 the upgrade process crashed, and the bug report filed with launchpad for this crash was ignored. In fact, this seems to be the standard pattern for most of the Ubuntu bugs I have taken the time to file. Nothing happens after I file a report until a long time has passed, at which point I get a message (possibly automated?) saying "there hasn't been any activity in [the reported issue] recently" and asking if I could do some more testing to find out if the bug has disappeared so it can be closed. I know this is not commercial software, but Ubuntu is the only widely-used open source software I have used for which taking the trouble to report bugs appears to be a waste of time. I'm sure some on the Ubuntu team are aware of the value of carefully prepared bug reports from the user community, but unfortunately that understanding isn't sufficiently widespread to make a difference that I can see. -- Firefox not rendering pages from Windows web server correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296937 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

I guess I don't understand how having our valid bug reports flagged as invalid is supposed to make us feel like filing more bug reports. I looked up the definition [1] for the "Invalid" bug status, and what I found was "Invalid: the report describes the software's normal behaviour, or is unsuitable for any other reason." I assume you didn't mean that failure to display some of the borders between cells was the "software's normal behaviour" (since you referred to the behavior as a "problem" yourself), so that would leave the conclusion that it is unsuitable for users to file bug reports if the developer who fixes the bug is going to fail to record the steps taken to correct the behavior.

Perfect! Had to log out and back in for the removal of notify-osd to take effect, and then the notification to wait for flushing to the device to complete disappeared when it was safe to remove it.

There is data that needs to be written to the device [device-label] before it can be removed. Please do not remove the media or disconnect the drive." This message is never updated to indicate that the flush activity has completed and that the device can be removed (I once waited several days to see if it would eventually change).

[Bug 1237562] [NEW] Software updater broken
Public bug reported: I rebooted my Xubuntu 13.04 laptop after a set of updates. When the machine came back up, the update icon was back in the tray, saying "There are 11 updates available." So I clicked on "Show updates" at which a dialog window came up and said "The software on this computer is up to date." So, thinking the tray icon needed to catch up, and that it would do so after I dismissed the dialog window, I clicked OK. But the tray icon remained, still insisting that there are 11 updates to be installed. So I clicked on "Show updates" again and got the same dialog window saying the computer is up to date.

Right, it never goes away. However, what you're calling a "bubble" is actually a dialog window. The name "bubble" brings to mind the picture of something less substantial than a full-blow dialog box. More along the lines of a hovering shape with rounded corners, a little bit of text, no widgets, perhaps less than complete opacity, and no user interaction required for it to disappear.

[Bug 998573] Re: xfdesktop displays permanent instructions not to remove ejected media
Thanks, Lionel. When you say "you should probably use notify-osd only with Unity only" do you mean I need to switch to a different desktop manager, or are you suggesting that I replace notify-osd with some other comparable package that plays better with xfdesktop? I'm not 100% how the pieces fit together. I gather I've somehow inadvertently installed some incompatible components. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998573 Title: xfdesktop displays permanent instructions not to remove ejected media To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfdesktop4/+bug/998573/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks, Lionel. I'll dig around and see what I need to do to replace notify-osd with xfce4-notifyd without breaking anything further. :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/998573 Title: xfdesktop displays permanent instructions not to remove ejected media To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfdesktop4/+bug/998573/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 223357] Re: "print selection Only" does not work in firefox3
> Does this error still occur ...? Not as described in the original report, which said that only one full line and portions of two additional lines were printed, but the behavior is still not correct in 12.04 LTS / Firefox 17.0. I followed my own repro instructions in comment #21, and the output omitted all but a couple of pixels' height at the bottom of the top line (the line which says "Daz wrote:" which was included in the selection), but printed the rest of the lines intact; see the attached image of the print output, showing that the top line is almost completely chopped off. This would be a regression, as several of us posted comments quite some time ago confirming that the bug had been fixed. ** Attachment added: "Scan of print output" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/223357/+attachment/3447971/+files/ubuntu-bug-223357.jpg -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223357 Title: "print selection Only" does not work in firefox3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/223357/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
