On Xubuntu 12.04, I keep getting this message when select an update:

---
The list of changes is not available yet.

Please use [link to online changelog]
until the changes become available or try again later.

This has happened for *every* update for the past two weeks or so.
Anyone else with the same experience?

modem question

Linda — 2012-05-25T15:04:06

I have a computer set up so you can dial in and work on it from another location. Lately I am having problems that if the line disconnects (our phone lines have problems) the computer is not releasing the modem so you then can not call back in and reconnect without having someone on site shutdown the computer and restart it.
My question is should I be looking at settings for the modem or for mgetty to ensure that if the call is broken that ttyS1 is freed back up and the modem is reset so it can answer the new call.  In the past the most I had to do was get someone to turn off the modem and turn it back on in a few minutes to reset everything so you could call in.
                 Thanks
                 Linda

Re: thunderbird stoped saving sent msgs

oxy — 2012-05-25T14:36:06

its not Gmail, its a local email server from my work.
I logged in to the web interface of this server and sent
mail is there in the folder called sent-mail.

I had deleted it on thbird. Recreated the account n it works now.

Thx ...

Dave Woyciesjes — 2012-05-25T14:13:55

Did you verify in the account settings as to which folder sent messages 
are being saved?
I assume this is for your GMail account. Did you login to the webmail 
interface an dsearch through all the folders to see if they are getting 
stuck somewhere else?
Keep in mind, GMail has a de-dupe process in place for thier email. 
Simply put, in reality you don't have actual email folders. THey are all 
stuck in one folder, and each message has tags that say which "folder" 
the message should appear in.

AD = active directory

Re: open iptables to connect as client to windows network

Tom H — 2012-05-25T12:53:57

If you load your iptables rules from "/etc/network/pre-up.d", I
presume that your iptables rules will supersede the ones loaded by ufw
but they won't overwrite the on-disk ufw rules. So you cannot work
with both simultaneously.

Whether you use "pure" iptables or ufw, you can display the active
rules with "iptables -L" or "iptables -S".

Re: What started using a keyring?

Pritam Baral — 2012-05-25T11:14:01

The password is most likely your first Ubuntu password when you installed
Ubuntu. It get's set when a user account is created. It can be changed
graphically. Or, if you don't remember the password, the keyring can be
deleted too.. Just make sure you create a new keyring and set it as
default, some apps (Google Chrome/Chromium) use the keyring to store their
passwords..

I think the GUI app that let's you do this is called "Passwords &
Encryption Keys". Look for it.

I have been using Thunderbird for some 10 years or so now and this has 
never happened.

There are 2 SENT folders - one for INBOX and  another for LOCAL. Which 
one do you have configured for Sent messages?

(I know what you wrote above but have you checked that the latest 
upgrade did not stuff things up for you?)

if ufw is a frontend to iptables, it will just overwrite my
iptables rules, right?

So i can work with both parallel. Can u tell how iptables
show the rules for samba under ufw config?
