| holstein | asterismo: i would just share the error | 16:00 |
| holstein | should be normal user permissions... | 16:00 |
| asterismo | thunderbird makes no trouble to sending signed mail | 16:00 |
| asterismo | Operación de envío abortada.USERID_HINT 1DF929837E07A4F8 Nadia Martinez (clave openPGP) <nadia.martinez.216@gmail.com> | 16:00 |
| asterismo | NEED_PASSPHRASE 1DF929837E07A4F8 1DF929837E07A4F8 1 0 | 16:00 |
| asterismo | GOOD_PASSPHRASE | 16:00 |
| asterismo | INV_RECP 0 0x1CBB2500CDC84C16 | 16:00 |
| asterismo | that is the error | 16:00 |
| asterismo | Operación de envío abortada means in spanish "Sending operation aborted" | 16:01 |
| holstein | so, its just enigmail now? | 16:01 |
| asterismo | thunderbird+enigmail | 16:01 |
| asterismo | the PGP key was created in seahorse | 16:01 |
| asterismo | with my assistence | 16:01 |
| asterismo | by chat | 16:01 |
| asterismo | and it is uploaded in ubuntu keyserver | 16:02 |
| holstein | im just asking, now thunderbird works? | 16:02 |
| holstein | the issue is only with enigmail now? | 16:02 |
| asterismo | thunderbird works, and it works sending signed mail | 16:02 |
| asterismo | but not encripted | 16:02 |
| asterismo | she imported other public keys (like mine and other co-workers) | 16:03 |
| asterismo | but when she tries ti encrypt the message, that error comes up | 16:03 |
| asterismo | strange | 16:03 |
| holstein | so, the issue is with both thunderbird and enigmail? | 16:04 |
| asterismo | yes, but the error itself does not tell me anybody | 16:05 |
| asterismo | anything, sorry | 16:05 |
| holstein | http://www.hoylen.com/articles/it/email/security/thunderbird.html looks something like what you have done? | 16:05 |
| asterismo | does noy tell me anything about the error, maybe you do understand what it is about | 16:05 |
| holstein | also, http://lifehacker.com/180878/how-to-encrypt-your-email | 16:06 |
| asterismo | is there anyway to reset gnupg, or seahorse, and all key management to default? | 16:06 |
| asterismo | this person may have screwed up the system permissions, several months ago | 16:07 |
| asterismo | so maybe this issue is related to that | 16:07 |
| holstein | asterismo: i would say, this is related | 16:07 |
| holstein | one easy way.. make a new user and test | 16:07 |
| holstein | otherwise, make sure the permissons are correct and start removing .config files from ~/ til its reset to default | 16:08 |
| asterismo | i mean all system permissions | 16:09 |
| asterismo | all in / | 16:09 |
| asterismo | maybe something screwed up in /usr/lib/gpg | 16:09 |
| asterismo | or something | 16:09 |
| asterismo | i compared permissions but nothing appears to be wrong | 16:10 |
| asterismo | but maybe there is other folder, like the keyring, seahorse, or where passphrases are saved.... dunno | 16:10 |
| holstein | i usually test as a different user | 16:11 |
| holstein | i would just look at what you typed above, and anytime you say "maybe", just go and confirm | 16:11 |
| asterismo | is it safe deleting the .config folder? i mean, no email will be lost or something? | 16:14 |
| holstein | asterismo: i would look for, and backup all data you need/want | 16:15 |
| holstein | i usually dont deletd them anyway.. i just move them out of the way | 16:15 |
| asterismo | there is no thunderbird folder in ~/.config folder | 16:16 |
| holstein | https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Thunderbird/Thunderbird_Configuration_Files | 16:17 |
| holstein | this is also another reason why testing with a new user account can make it easier | 16:17 |
| holstein | if the issue is still there with a new user, then you dont need to bother with what you are doing right now | 16:17 |
| holstein | maybe locate thunderbird in the terminal would help you find it | 16:18 |
| holstein | holstein@aphrodite:~$ cd /home/holstein/.thunderbird/ | 16:19 |

| asterismo | anyway to generate a 8192 bit PGP key with seahorse? | 21:01 |

| asterismo | please help | 21:01 |
| ironbutt | hello | 22:43 |
| ironbutt | I installed Ubuntu 12.10 64 bit desktop yesterday, and the primary reason is so that I can try out the steam for linux. One problem, I can't figure out how to get my graphics card working correctly. | 22:45 |
| ironbutt | my problem is: The driver from amd results in unity failing to load, and I do not want that to happen. | 22:46 |
| ironbutt | More information: My graphics card is an AMD Radeon HD 7970. The solutions I have seen are either for the hd 4000 and older (legacy) or max out at the 6000 series. | 22:46 |
| ironbutt | any thoughts on how this problem could be solved? | 22:47 |
