[Bug 1346435] Re: Cannot enter name for new folder, can't make folder

 

I'm confused by this. The fix was a setting problem, and I was informed
a long time ago. Moribius1 nailed it on July 21st, in the page
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2235440&p=13078735#post13078735
, also referencing
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfe/+bug/1029256 . Fixed by :
System Settings > Language Support > Keyboard Input Method System > From
IBUS to None: Apparently a setting changed in 14.04 defaults from
earlier Ubuntu versions?

It works fine now, just rechecked it. Definitely NOT a BIOS problem.

I don't have the latest BIOS, but I also don't know of any bugs that
affect operations. Everything seems to work fine. Where can I see info
on the Ubuntu problems with this BIOS?

Just for reference, here is the output from the command sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date :

Title:
  Cannot enter name for new folder, can't make folder

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I select "new folder", window appears, but cannot enter name in text
  box to create new folder.

  It seems that some users have this problem, some not.  XFE has no
  variants, so I'm guessing the problem arises within Ubuntu and
  variations in Ubuntu setup.
