View 4 RepliesI am trying to add a OpenPGP key for launchpad. It said to use this command.
Code:
gpg --fingerprint
When I use that command nothing shows.
Next I clicked on the the How to get the fingerprint. It said to go into Passwords and Encryption Keys. Then the My Personal Keys tab. I have nothing there. What should I do to get something there?
Is there a way to report a bug on a launchpad ppa? I see the Bugs section only has search, with no open bugs. Is there another way to report a bug on this system?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs this seriously the ONLY way to report a bug? I can't just fill out a form somewhere without running software to do it? When I try to do it the way explained in the guide, it tells me that I'm using a stable version of Xubuntu, and that only people running dev versions (like 11.10) can report bugs.This seems absurd. Are they saying that all stable releases are perfect in every way? Surely one must be able to report a bug for them...

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with installing ubuntu 11.04 I get this message:
Code:
Hspell: can't open /usr/share/hspell/Hebrew.wgz.sizes
It's get stuck with the updating time from internet servers process but I can't find a way to report it to launchpad.
I've already encountered a couple bugs, and thought it would be nice to be able to report new ones there and/or comment on old ones. But their register button only leads to "Invalid OpenID transaction," and I think that's a bug, and I think I ought to report that over here since I obviously can't register or report it over there.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI finally figured out how to upload onto Launchpad into a PPA, but unfortunately, I cannot seem to get the version numbers worked out.
For instance, here is the original version of bleachbit-bonus:
bleachbit-bonus_0.8.2-1_all.deb
And I can successfully break it down into the correct source binaries for Launchpad, but when I try a folder name such as this:
bleachbit-bonus-0.8.2-1~ppa1
It uploads to the PPA just fine, but the versioning is bad. For some reason it breaks it down like this:
package name: bleachbit-bonus-0.8.2
version: 1~ppa1
Also, I really don't care what the version name is, I just want it working so I can mimic for several packages.
Is anyone else having trouble...I'm getting a ton of "Failed to fetch..." errors while updating.The site itself is working fine. No news here [URL]. Normally I wouldn't be concerned, however this happened right when I modified my sources so I'm hoping I didn't mess something up.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI always hear 'do NOT install anything from anywhere except the official repositories'. But I find a lot of great apps that are not included in repositories and would like to ask. How actually secure launchpad is? Are the codes reviewed by anyone? How do I make sure that a piece of software is not going to harm my Ubuntu? If I add a PPA for some program I won't going to check it's code every time it updates or am I being too cautious?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI cannot find where to post bugs in the launchpad anymore? What happened to the launchpad? It's sort of goofy that there is no (report a bug) link anywhere. But if you search bugs then you can see a link to the right, but nothing anywhere else. And even then you can only post a bug regarding that same category and subject. So it would appear the launchpad has a bug, or I just can't figure out how to navigate to report a bug.

If you have problem using Ubuntu 11.04 from USB, remove the U3 launchpad if you do not need it at all. It may solve your problem.Link: [URL] I am not a Ubuntu/Linux user but I do keep a copy of Ubuntu LiveUSB in my Sandisk cruzer micro 8GB USB stick in case of system failure. It comes with the U3 lanuchpad that I never use.The USB stick was working happily with Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10. However when I formatted the stick and put Ubuntu 11.04 (checksum is ok) into it, it failed to boot from the stick every single time. I was getting this error even though I have disabled all(one) my physical DVD-RWs in BIOS:
Code:
mounting /dev/sr0 on /cdrom. failed Device or resource busy.
I do not remember the wording...)The error message appeared when I saw the Ubuntu logo and the five animating dots. So I decided to remove U3 launchpad and voil�! I could boot for the first time (and 6th time in a row without problem now).sidenote: My physical DVD-RW drive is still blocking the bootup half of the times even if there is no discs in it. Disabling the drive in BIOS solve the problem. The error occurs before I see the five animating dots. The screen stops at
Code:
[figure varying each time] scsi 0:0:0:0: CD-ROM PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-111 1.29 PQ:0 ANSI:5
When I try:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gdm2setup/gdm2setup
Code:
sudo apt-get update
Code:
sudo apt-get install python-gdm2setup
On the update I have error in terminal:
Code:
W: Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found
W: Failed to fetch [URL] 404 Not Found
E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
Is there any launchpad ([URL] for debian) like service for building and hosting rpm?

I was playing around and by mistake I deleted the Chat and Mail panels which are default on the launchpad or whatever the top bar is called (where by default the date and power options/buttons appear). I want to bring it back.

View 2 Replies View Related[URL] Essentially, this module can be fine-tuned to the user's liking, using four integers instead of a boolean. By allowing for the red, green, blue, and alpha values to be fine-tuned, the user can control how transparent or opaque their desktop is. And how is this possible? C++ instead of C. How do you guys think of being able to customize RGBA?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've got the following problem: I just noticed that there were just very few notifications about updating the system (usually there are damn many of them in a week) So I opened the update manager and clicked on "refresh list". The following result popped up: p,li{white-space:pre-wrap;}E: Error http://ppa.launchpad.net natty/main/Sources Sources 404 Not Found First I thought, it would be just some kind of server problem, but it didn't stop. The next thing was to research the thread and I even found something. However, the solution suggested didn't work at all. (Things, which might have caused this: I installed the default software center |I'm using Kubuntu, but in this case that fact doesn't matter| and used it. To sum up:
- not able to update the system referring to the launchpad main sources for 11.04
- following error: E: Error http://ppa.launchpad.net natty/main/Sources Sources 404 Not Found It would be great if this was a common issue and I've been simply too stupid to find a proper solution. So you could just post the link.
The last few bugs I have reported on launchpad have met the response "submit it upstream". What's the point of submitting bugs on launchpad if the bug has to be reported again upstream anyway? Why not just report upstream in the first place and forget launchpad?
It seems like unnecessary duplication of effort. So can anyone give me some genuine reasons to bother reporting in launchpad?
In the past twenty four hours or more, all of the following have failed at launchpad [URL],
a. Login with existing account,
b. Email instruction for forgotten password, both for institutional email and gmail.
c. Creation of new account, again both for institutional email and gmail.
I'm new to Linux, so I decided to try using Wubi to get started. THe problem is, when it finished installing 10.04, I got this message: OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'C:\ubuntu\install\ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso' Is there any way around this? It might just be that overly restrictive thing called Vista (which I have the bad luck to be using). I was considering getting a USB drive for Ubuntu anyway..
View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently got interested with with OS.. So I downloaded wubi in Ubuntu website. I opted for the Ubuntu Netbook Edition as am using a lappy. However, halfway through finishing download I got an error. The log shows:
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'C:\ubuntu\install\ubuntu-10.10-netbook-i386.iso'
What is the difference between the Ubuntu Installer for windows and the Ubuntu CD image? If I use the ubuntu installer for windows, does it have the capability to partition my drive, will it enable to share files with windows etc or is it just a way not to have to burn a CD. Just curious, the exact details of the installation files were not made clear on the website. Note: Windows Version: XP, 32bit, SP3. I have not partitioned anything yet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have windows 7 installed on Disk2 (according to windows Disk Manager), and I installed ubuntu 10.10 on Disk0, choosing the dual boot option at installation.
However, grub does not load (presumably because its on disk0 and my machine appears to boot from disk3), so the machine goes straight into windows 7.
How do I get ubuntu to load?
