[Bug 1396048] Re: Evince misses font and only displays squares in menus

2015-05-22 Thread Dan Muresan
For me it seems to happen with symlinks from /usr/share/fonts to a
different partition

[Bug 631088] Re: Incompatibilty with Windows font Deja Vu Sans 9.9990234375 makes evince menu unreadable

2015-05-22 Thread Dan Muresan
Still not working in 14.04. Strangely, using strace -eopen evince I
can see that an open() system call returns  EACCES, even though from the
shell I can access the symlink (and its target)

Aha, it's Teh Apparmor. Edit /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.evince and add

/**.[tT][tT][fF] rw,

after the other supported formats (bmp, djvu etc)

[Bug 17962] Re: newly opened gnome-terminal windows don't have .bash_profile sourced

2013-10-16 Thread Dan Muresan
That was absolute bull. Ubuntu obviously ships with /etc/profile, which
is a version of bash_profile, so #8 was a specious argument. And
placing profiley stuff into bashrc slows down the shell (as if it's
not slow enough already!)

Some .xsessionrc file (or whatever is read by the *dm's) must make sure
to read /etc/profile. If that is not done at the system level it must be
recommended to users as the preferred workaround for this utter
nonsense.

[Bug 515915] Re: evince hangs on start-up

2012-03-22 Thread Dan Muresan
The only way I can get out of this bug, when it bites, is to exit my X
(and presumably dbus) session and log back in. Really annoying. evince
prints all sorts of useless console clutter, but fails to print any
useful diagnostics in this case.

[Bug 726480] [NEW] gnome-screensaver forces itself upon xscreensaver users

2011-02-28 Thread Dan Muresan
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

gnome-screensaver installs the DBus file

/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.gnome.ScreenSaver.service

which unconditionally starts gnome-screensaver whenever some other
process (e.g. nm-applet, update-notifier) pull the trigger. This is
troubling for users of non-gnome desktop environments, e.g. LXDE.

A workaround for me was to install the following
/usr/local/share/dbus-1/services/org.gnome.ScreenSaver.service:


[D-BUS Service]
Name=org.gnome.ScreenSaver
Exec=/bin/sh -c 'if xscreensaver-command -version /dev/null 21; then renice 
+10 $$ /dev/null 21; while sleep 60; do :; done else exec 
/usr/bin/gnome-screensaver; fi' gnome-screensaver-placeholder

The dummy process remains active because if it exited immediately, dbus
might try to restart gnome-screensaver. I don't know if this is really
necessary.

First of all, this needs to be fixed -- screensavers should not step on
each others' toes. Secondly, is there a more elegant workaround? Note
that because of bug #726471, a user can't override a misguided
/usr/share/ service file in his home (~/.local/share) configuration:

[Bug 726480] Re: gnome-screensaver forces itself upon xscreensaver users

2011-02-28 Thread Dan Muresan
My remark about processes that pull the trigger was based on an
empirical observation: if I start LXDE with a disabled
/etc/xdg/autostart/update-notifier.desktop, xscreensaver runs, and there
is no gnome screensaver. Whenever one of nm-applet or update-notifier
starts, dbus loads gnome-screensaver.

What these two applets seem to have in common is that they both pop up
small banner-like notices. I can't find any actual code in update-
notifier that tickles the screensaver.

[Bug 665195] Re: plymouthd alive when umountroot runs (prevents clean unmount)

2010-10-22 Thread Dan Muresan
I'm getting the feeling that the mechanism used to keep plymouth up /
down appropriately AND avoid a VT change all the while is brittle; there
are too many unpredictable interactions between plymouth, plymouth-stop,
[gkx]dm and rc*.d stop.

That's why I filed against plymouth in the first place -- perhaps there
could be a simpler design...
