Bug#388382: kdemultimedia-kio-plugins: wrong lame encoding option results in static-like files copying audio CD via konqueror

2006-09-20 Thread Alberto Marmodoro
Package: kdemultimedia-kio-plugins
Version: 4:3.5.4-1
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss

The default command line configuration, or any modification of it
accessible through kcontrol interface, will spawn lame with the -x
option.
This results in mp3 files containing almost white noise like sounds, at
least on this powerpc arch, with lame version 3.96.1.

Omitting this switch, the very same operation succeds. The option
however is not accessible to the user.

Suggested patch:
Omit the -x switch

Longer term solution:
Make the final command line accessible to the user, at least as an
editable entry in ~/.kde/share/config/kcmaudiocd_encoder_lame_rc.
Something like kaudiocreatorrc "commandLine" option would be much more
flexible.

Bug#368556: Unable to reproduce

2006-05-23 Thread Alberto Marmodoro
Thanks for your prompt reply. I'm eager to help, even if limited to
working with the laptop I'm writing you even now -a PowerPC iBook G4 by
the way, maybe this can better define the problem.
I' ve been doing a few attempt at the issue.
I can reproduce it consistently with the submitted configuration, but
only under my default user, and even then just when kooka is started
with the usb cable already connected and the scanner on (a
Hewlett-Packard PSC1110 all-in-one printer, working fine under cups and
xscanimage for example). Thus I marked the bug as preventing the package
usage.

A newly created, empty user is able to launch the program without
problems, under the same conditions; I think therefore the cause could be
some config validation issue reading files from ./kde, I' ll investigate
this as soon as I'll have gdb installed.
For now I'm attaching just a strace log. The KDE crash handler report is
"The application Kooka (kooka) crashed and caused the signal 6
(SIGABRT)"

So long for now; thank you,

Bug#368556: kooka: Crash on startup

2006-05-22 Thread Alberto Marmodoro
Package: kooka
Version: 4:3.5.2-1+b2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

*** Please type your report below this line ***line
The application crash right at the invocation:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ kooka
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x0cb22654 ***
KCrash: Application 'kooka' crashing...

xscanimage, on the other hand, works fine.
