[Bug 670201] Re: evince freezes with high iowait, locks up entire OS

2010-11-08 Thread David Dean
It turns out I was having some problems with a failing hard drive
causing high iowait when swap memory was being used.

However, I have replaced the hard drive and are still having similar
problems (but of a lesser magnitude) in a clean Ubuntu 10.10
installation.

I have a HP 530 Notebook PC with 1 GiB of RAM and 4.7 GiB of swap. I'm
happy to provide other details if you think they are relevant.

The memory usage of evince appears to move around a bit while it is
trying to load the third page (I assume one of the diagrams is causing
the problem) from around 300 MiB to 600 MiB, but the memory taken away
from the system appears to be higher. This can be seen in the attached
screen shot of system monitor after I killed the evince process, where
around 700 MiB of memory and 1.4 GiB of swap are returned to the system.

[Bug 181915] Re: page scroll causes loss of context to the reader

2009-11-04 Thread David Dean
Just a quick note that a workaround that seems to work for me is to
peform the page-down by clicking on the empty area on the scroll-bar.
This seems to perform a more sensible approach, with only a line or so
of context instead of the much too large amount when the space bar or
page down is used.

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

2009-06-22 Thread David Dean
So this has been reported a number of times in different guises .. for
example:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/72714

which links us back to:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=150521

Which shows that the gnome folk are not interested in fixing this.

So as a distribution, Ubuntu includes a .bash_profile which will not be
sourced if you're a local user. Seems odd.

And all the possible points of fixing it are marking bugs invalid:
- gdm bug? nope, gnome don't care.
- terminal bug? nope, see gdm bug
- ...

As an end user I just want my ~/bin/ to work, I don't much care how we
get there.

[Bug 278883] [NEW] [intrepid beta] totem doesn't load playlists

2008-10-05 Thread David Dean
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem

When I try to open a text .m3u playlist file with totem, it complains
that it cannot open the playlist with the message: "GstDecodeBin: This
appears to be a text file". The following messages are also output to
the console:

** Message: Error: This appears to be a text file
gstdecodebin.c(1657): type_found (): /play/decodebin3:
decodebin cannot decode plain text files

The particular playlist was just a one-file-per-line playlist I
generated using shell scripts:

[Bug 259294] [NEW] Evince takes a long time, cpu to render document

2008-08-19 Thread David Dean
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

Occassionally with some pdf documents evince seems to take a very long
time to render pages (and sticks at 100% cpu usage while doing so too).
In this case it appears to be happening with some pdfs exported from
openoffice impress. I'm not sure if this is a bug in evince, or in
openoffice's export, or both - but it seems likely to be evince to me.

I will attach the pdf that has this problem. I don't seem to have any
trouble viewing this pdf in Adobe Acrobat 6.0 in Windows, but both
evince and xpdf seem to have problems.

[Bug 159414] Re: skip forwards is different than skip backwards

2008-01-08 Thread David Dean
It seems this is by design. But I still feel it should at least be
mentioned in the menus as it is not obvious and can take some getting
used to

>From http://www.gnome.org/projects/totem/ :

Q: Why does seeking with the keyboard keys (Left and Right arrow) in Totem not 
seek the same amount of time in either direction?
A: This is on purpose. To find a particular point in a film, most people will 
seek forward and then realise that they've gone too far. Seeking back, if it 
used the same amount of time, would mean going back to where they last seeked 
from. You can experiment with pressing Ctrl or Shift along with the arrows to 
seek further, or closer (respectively).

[Bug 159414] Re: skip forwards is different than skip backwards

2007-12-20 Thread David Dean
I'm pretty sure it happens for any file. I have tried it with mp4s avis
and mp3s and the same think happens for all of them. One minute
forwards, 15 seconds back.

I've kind of gotten used to it now, and If it is by design I could
probably put up with it, but it still seems a little counterintuitive.

My normal skipping technique has become go forward until I'm past where
I want and the back a few times to fine-tune, which seems sort-of
logical I guess. Perhaps it should just be documented in the menus so
'Skip Forward (60s)' and 'Skip Backwards (15s)' instead of just 'Skip
Forwards' and 'Skip Backwards'.

[Bug 159414] skip forwards is different than skip backwards

2007-11-01 Thread David Dean
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem

'Skip Forwards' in totem skips 1 minute, but 'Skip Backwards' only goes
back 15 seconds. This seems counterintuitive to me, at at least should
be configurable in some manner, as the 1 minute skip is a bit long for
watching short video podcasts, such as skipping ads in Boing Boing TV or
webalert.

15 seconds in both directions may be a good amount for this type of
content at least. Maybe the (default) jump size should be based on the
length of the video.

Just to demonstrate, hit this link .. it kills my firefox instantly (and
gets saved in the current session, so firefox then crashes on start. )

[Bug 85102] symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/totem/libtotem-narrowspace-plugin.so: undefined symbol: NS_CStringContainerInit

2007-02-17 Thread David Dean
Public bug reported:

I found this in liferea, when clicking the below item from an rss feed -
liferea dies instantly.

I'm guessing it's the Quicktime embed? Are these supposed to work on
Feisty?

with --debug-all flag on:
** Message: NP_Initialize
** Message: NP_Initialize succeeded
/usr/bin/liferea-bin: symbol lookup error: 
/usr/lib/totem/libtotem-narrowspace-plugin.so: undefined symbol:

And the offending item:
 


Hilarious video blogger Ze Frank takes on one of the "sad little things that makes us human" in a recent episode: procrastination.

If you've ever "taught yourself a whole other programming language instead of making something useful with the one you already know," this is for you. Taking the time out to watch this short video won't make you more produc tive but it will help you master the art of procrastination and give you a laugh at the same time.
