[Bug 95177] Re: HTML mail confirmation dialog list needs a scrollable widget

A couple of workarounds from bug 242231: Add [a second row of] workspaces or remove the acceptance dialog in the preferences Also, if you do *not* have Visual Effects enabled, you *can* Alt-drag the dialog beyond the top of the screen (at least, it works for me). So, running “metacity --replace”

[Bug 242798] Re: Ekiga - "Registration failed: Forbidden" with an 'ñ' in the pwd

I don’t think that this is the same problem as the upstream bug. The upstream bug is about checking that the registrar and realm fields are sane. It is reasonable to question the registrar field, because this identifies a server, and therefore presumably contains an IP address, host name or do

[Bug 74360] Re: Several compose key combinations don't work

Not with Firefox, but with other applications such as gedit and gnome-terminal, there *is* a graphical way to change your input method temporarily to the X input method. Right-click (if your pointing device is set for right-handedness :^]) in the text input field, and choose Input Methods and

[Bug 247123] Re: Rhythmbox cannot download some podcasts (port 8000)

I think that the problem is actually that listening.at refuses to respond helpfully to an HTTP HEAD request on port 8000: it instead returns a 400 Bad Request error. RFC 2616, Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1, states: The metainformation contained in the HTTP headers in response to a

[Bug 247123] Re: Rhythmbox cannot download some podcasts (port 8000)

It seems that Überklang is running Icecast2, so you could install apt:icecast2, try to reproduce the bug in that, and file a bug here in Launchpad or upstream if you manage to do so. There are mailing list posts from November 2006 regarding Icecast’s lack of support for HTTP HEAD, so I don’t k

For completeness, here is a log to show that Rhythmbox does indeed make a HEAD request: HEAD /ueberklang/ueber220608.mp3 HTTP/1.1 Host: listening.at:8000 User-Agent: gnome-vfs/2.22.0 neon/0.25.4 Keep-Alive: Connection: TE, Keep-Alive TE: trailers HTTP/1.0 400 Bad

I wrote the following (and attached) shell script to see if I could reproduce the problem in Ubuntu 8.04 (file-roller version 2.22.3-0ubuntu1): #!/bin/sh FILE=$(tempfile) echo Hello world >$FILE gzip --to-stdout $FILE >$FILE.gz tar --create --gzip --directory=$(dirname $FILE)
