Upgrading to 12.04 caused some problems to my Firefox. It seems like that Firefox doesn't know how to handle downloads.

After some researches, I've found this solution : Kubuntu 12.04 Firefox and Rekong don't know how to open downloaded files

but it still doesn't work as it should, in fact it opens my mp3 with Audacity and not with the default player.

But the worst thing is that "Open folder" opens Gwenview instead of Dolphin!

Suggestions?

I've upgraded to 12.04 and I had to switch from Ironhide to the latest version of Bumblebee.

Now, when I try to run bumblebeed, I get this error:

FATAL: Module bbswitch not found.
[ERROR]Module bbswitch could not be loaded (timeout?)
[WARN]No switching method available. The dedicated card will always be on.

I don't really need to use the secondary VGA on Kubuntu, so I would like to find a way to definitely shut the discrete GPU down and avoid wasting battery. I can't disable it from the BIOS because I use it on Windows. My card is an nvidia 540M.

I've got an ETPS/2 Elantech Touchpad which works fine in Windows.

Since my first install of Ubuntu, and even now on Kubuntu, it randomly autoclicks.

Even the type of click is random, because sometimes it just moves my caret, but it also happens that I find something pasted in the wrong place, as if it autoclicked with two fingers (2 fingers tap pastes from clipboard).

I removed KMouseTool, believing that it's accessibility features where the problem, but I still got it, so I don't know what to do.

Is there any solution?

It's making hard to work with netbeans because it pastes code at random -.-

Thanks :)
