Ubuntu :: Print Dialog Box Hang With Gedit/firefox/chromium?
Oct 27, 2010
My System spec is::Ubuntu 10.04/Kernel 2.6.32-25-generic #45-Ubuntu i686 GNU/Linux
gnome::2.30.2. Laptop - Dell E6400. today I updated it, the problem I'm facing occurs even before update so update is not the cause.till yesterday night every thing worked fine.Problem::>>When ever i try to print from firefox/Chromium/Gedit the print dialog appears shows just print to file and hang up !>>I checked in System->Administration->Printing and it shows list of network printers(I'm in Lan). Even i can successfully print from gvim/writer.>> once i left that dialog box left open, may be around 10 min latter i saw the list of printer but when i tried again same thing- Hang I even checked with cupsd it is running normally.Admin team just solved the problem it was due to the shared printer option enabled in System->Administration-Printing.Hope the shared printer call was delaying too much to cause hang.

I have a Ubuntu 10.10 installed on my HP Mini 210, and is having a problemth authentication dialogs when applications requests for elevated permissions. As far as I concern, there are two types of them, one is the kind when you run anything with gksu where the background dims and a dialog pops up. Another type is when you try toinstall software through Synaptic and a dialog box requests for your password. I am having problems with the later one.
Whenever the authentication dialog box pops up, after typing my password and presses enter, or the Authenticate button, the password field disappears while leaving the authentication dialog on the screen. The Authenticate and Cancel buttons are still clickable, but they are not bringing any actions by clicking them. I would have to let the application to continue with elevated permissions by manually closing the dialog. There are very very rareoccasions where the dialog disappears after I click on authenticate, which I can say is 1 in every 100 times

I am using Ubuntu 10.10 and have run into a problem recently. When I use print preview in gedit, a "print preview" screen comes up and all of the pages are blank. Sometimes, one or two pages are shown but it is random. This just started to happen when I upgraded to 10.10. I did a fresh install so a partial update would not be an issue.
Are there any ideas what could be wrong? Sorry if this thread exists somewhere else but some google searching and ubuntu fourm searching resulted in nothing.

Adobe Reader 9.3.3 on Slackware 13.1 (32 bit). This is the stand-alone reader, not the browser plugin. The Reader crashes the second time I open the print dialog. Even if I cancel, and do not actually print. For example: Open a PDF, File=>Print, Cancel, File=>Print. Then the Reader window is gone, with no message anywhere I can find.

I'm running Kubuntu 10.10 with a Laserjet 5M printer. When I attempt to print a job from Firefox or from Okular, the job never gets onto the print queue. However, I can print test pages on the printer and also print from OpenOffice, so this seems to be app-dependent. I know the jobs aren't being queued because the job number doesn't increase (as shown by the jobs for the test pages). Both Firefox and Ocular give every indication that the print job has been processed correctly.

Notice how LQ is pinned as an App Tab, just like the case with Chrome and Chromium? Notice also how the tabs are placed above the address bar, just like Chrome and Chromium?
Just why was this done and for what purpose? I'm posting this here because this screenshot was taken on Ubuntu and I'm using Ubuntu. I also tested Firefox 4 on Ubuntu before and didn't have this realignment of widgets.

I'm trying to set up the Firefox extension 'Web Developer' to view the source of a webpage with gedit.
I've done this previously on Windows with notepad just by adding the command 'notepad %1' to the appropriate entry in 'Web Developer'.
In Firefox under Linux Mint 9, I tried replacing that command with 'gedit %U' but nothing happens. I can launch gedit from a terminal, but how do I get it to run from another application?

I'm having a problem getting the website [URL]... to display and function properly on 10.10. What I thought odd was that it fails to work in both Firefox and Chromium, although other Flash applications work fine. Is anyone having the same problem I am? Does anybody know what the issue might be?

I have got a problem with Adobe Flash. Flash is freezing firefox or chromium (I installed it just for test) until I kill plugin-container (in firefox).
I tested intensively and I can say that it freezes when Flash is going to reproduce a sound.

After updating to Natty Narwhal, Chromium began to occasionally crash, with the screen going black except for the mouse,which would freeze seconds later. Any sound playing will loop the last second or so, and no keyboard commands have any effect. As far as I can tell only a hard restart works.
The exact same thing happens with Firefox as well, except that Firefox freezes with the screen image, not blackness.
It is not consistent, but has been getting more frequent, and I have noticed a pattern of the crashes being associated with paying Flash video, and is almost certain with such.
I have tried updating Flash, Chromium, and running the Update manager roughly daily for a while now.
I can follow instructions well and usually actually understand what you're talking about.

After spending what seems like an eternity trying to learn how to host a couple of webpages on my laptop for no better reason than to practice creating them without paying for a server. .for the time being, I kept getting the usual errors (stuff I have seen lots of tutorials on) and this time kept getting
"The connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost"
Just by random chance I happened to open up Chromium for one of my attempts and low and behold, I get the much awaited

It works! This is the default web page for this server.The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet. I can even login to phpMyAdmin from Chromium. So what's going on with Firefox? Doesn't work in Seamonkey either. Using 10.04

Does anyone know of any download manager that allows you to time your downloads to start off at certain times / hours et cetera? I currently use DownThemAll! as an extension in my Firefox, but I don't think that has such a capability. I would prefer a browser extension, but if there's an application that would do I'd be thankful if you could name it.
I need this so that I time my downloads at certain hours and have them run automatically, due to the fact that my ISP allows some uncharged hours at night which I basically never made use of (but now I have to, as my free data download limit is close to being used up).

I would like to know if you guys think this is a safe plugin/extension to use with either Chromium or Firefox.
There is an old page that shows it had security issues in the past.[URL].. Would it be safe to use this or do you think someone could use it to steal my passwords, etc. while browsing?

I've been going through the Comprehensive multimedia and video howto a couple of times and never get streaming going. When testing on the Apple trailers site and this here I don't get it to work. I tried both streaming options set in the thread, (a) Gecko Media Player and (b) MPlayer Plug-in (removing the other one in between) and am getting very annoyed. Currently have option (a) installed.

I recently installed Chromium and went to listen to one of my favorite podcasts, only to find that it wouldn't play. Like the title says, it plays perfectly well in Firefox. Is there some Chromium extension I need in order to play .mp3 files?

I've got a fun one for you. What makes absolutely any attempt to view a flash video crash Ubuntu 10.10, both in firefox and chromium? Lately, firefox began doing this. I switch to chromium, same thing. Also, the system completely locks up after about 30 minutes online if I can get the thing to work at all. When this happens, the rounded edges of all windows disappear, the menus become unresponsive, and any attempt to open the system monitor to end the offending process results in an "Unable to fork new process, system resource unvailable" something like that.
My entire online routine goes like this: open terminal, su to admin account to enable ufw (which will not run at boot no matter what I try), su to normal, limited account, open web browser, things explode (or work for 15 minutes before freezing completely.)

After finding firefox too slow, i recently shifted full time to chromium. and now i know why it has such a fan following ! its seriously fast, especially as compared to firefox - which at least in my case would appear to have got bogged down because of numerous add-ons etc.
However, there are 2 things that disturb the basic functional of chromium.
- Whenever i click on the browser icon, the window that opens up is never in "maximized" size. so every time i need to double click on the title border to maximize the window. is there some way in which the browser window will open in maximized mode the first time i click the icon ?
- Firefox wouid readily open pdf files within the browser window itself. however, chromium asks me to first save the file at some location, and then only can i open it !

get the java plugin to work with either firefox or chromium on a Centos 5.6.I have created the symbolic links in what I think are the proper directories, but nothing. about :plugins shows zippo.I am running Centos 5.6
Java runtime is : jre-1.6.0_25-fcs
For chromium, I have the following symlink:
/usr/chromium/lib64/chromium/plugins/libnpjp2.so -> /usr/java/jre1.6.0_25/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
For firefox, I have:
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libnpjp2.so -> /usr/java/jre1.6.0_25/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so
alternatives --config java shows:There are 2 programs which provide 'java'.

I had recently reinstalled Kubuntu after breaking it for the n-th time and downloads will no longer open from the Downloads window of Firefox. Instead, it brings up a dialog with the title Launch Application and asks me which application I should open it with. This seems to happen all of the file formats I have tried; namely pdf, zip, deb, and png. This did not happen from before the reinstallation.

I've got a strange problem with firefox on Fedora 14 x86_64, at startup it just shows a dialog with a heading Malformed File and the following description:Firefox could not install this item because "" (provided by the item) is not well-formed or does not exist. Please contact the author about this problem.(see attachment.)there is only an OK button. Pressing it, nothing happens! firefox doesn't come up! I tried firefox --safe-mode,the same dialog pops up but after pressing ok, the "Firefox Safe Mode" dialog shows. No matter what I select on this dialog, firefox simply never comes up! I even created a new user, to try firefox without any addons, but the results are the same! Reinstalling doesn't help also! It has started since last firefox update (firefox-3.6.13-1.fc14.x86_64)
