[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1902385] [NEW] At times I have an app. menu that opens and never closes

2020-10-31 Thread Alexis Wilke
Public bug reported: It has happened twice in the last little bit where I opened a menu on an icon in the dock and the menu remains opened "forever" (until next reboot). Opening other menus from other icons in the dock works as expected. In most cases, the menu that's stuck is "transparent" to c

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1616650 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1616650 Okay, another updated happened today (version 79.0.3945.79) and I can confirm that it creates the issue where I lose the dot under the Gnome icon. So bug $1616650 definitely looks like the solution to this p

2019-12-06 Thread Alexis Wilke
Well, I can't really confirm whether it is a refresh (which I called auto-restart) after an auto-update or a an actual crash... but for sure the window does not change yet it gets disconnected from the Gnome Desktop (and that has happened many times now). At least I'll post to confirm that the hist

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1855489] [NEW] Chromium auto-restart feature breaks many features

2019-12-06 Thread Alexis Wilke
Public bug reported: Once in a while, Chromium "auto-restarts" to take advantage of new features and especially apply security patches. This sounds like a great feature only it currently has very bad repercussions (as in, it's terribly bogus). Steps to reproduce: 1. start Chromium 2. browse to v

I got here because of a question asked on the Ubuntu stack here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/115333/how-do-i-disable-the-sleep- button-on-my-keyboard My keyboard Sleep button is right next to the Esc key. It's just too close and way to easy to end up clicking on it. It would be nicer to have

I rebooted on Ubuntu 16.04 (4.4.0-142-generic) and it worked as expected once gpm was turned off. I used the following command to prevent gpm from starting on a reboot and messing up the login screen: sudo systemctl mask gpm -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desk

I have the exact same problem on Ubuntu 16.04 (vmlinuz-4.4.0-142-generic). I will try to turn off GPM and see how my console functions without it. What a surprise though! Not being able to log in the simplest console. Not something I've seen in ages... -- You received this bug notification beca

Sure, I don't think anyone has ever looked in this problem, unfortunately. Although "it works for me" now, doesn't mean it's fixed. That's all I'm saying. The code of Thunderbird is huge so I was never able to look enough through it and understand where the problem could be. Anyway, it can be clos

I don't recall having that bug happen to me for some time. However, it stops only because I understood what was causing some other problem. You have a feature called "Compact Folders" which is bogus and I think that when that other problem occurs, this very bug happens. I have had it with Thunderb

There is information about KWallet. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE_Wallet It is marked as optional because it is allowed to fail as it does when you are running with Gnome (unity uses Gnome by default). So this is not a bug. You make comment out the lines as shown in #19 but you may reg

I have the same problem. I cannot use the global menus because I setup my X environment to focus the window my mouse goes over. That really does not work with global menus since I lose those menus as soon as I move the mouse over another window (although Atl-F10 can help, it's not easy to type that
