[Bug 34058] Re: Selecting SSL/TLS encryption for IMAP account connects to wrong server port

2010-05-18 Thread Gabriel Bauman
Matt - set the port you wish to use, apply your settings, restart
Evolution, and things will work fine.

The bug is that custom port settings don't take effect until a restart.

[Bug 565051] Re: gnome-terminal background remains faintly transparent when solid color background selected

2010-05-13 Thread Gabriel Bauman
You've set this bug to Invalid in gnome-terminal.  Fair enough, but
clearly the Ambiance and Radiance themes are breaking expected
behaviour.  Retargeting this issue would have been a better choice.

As to bug status - I confirm my own bugs when I reproduce them on
several machines. If that's a problem, I suppose I could simply dump
unconfirmed reports into Launchpad and forget about them, then find them
years later when someone says There've been many changes in Ubuntu
since you reported this bug! Is it still an issue in Ubuntu 19.04? That
would be really productive.

[Bug 443004] Re: Buttons disappear or do not respond to mouse clicks in Eclipse

2010-04-22 Thread Gabriel Bauman
@mbudd

The problem you are experiencing is not related to this bug, which has
nothing to do with inactive buttons. Sufferers of this bug had to
click *active* buttons more than once to get them to work.

Also, there is no benefit to using dpkg over synaptic.

I've had the issue you are experiencing before, and it was solved by
making sure Eclipse had full write access to its own directory. If
you're allowing eclipse to install features and plugins in ~/.eclipse,
you are going to have problems.

[Bug 565051] [NEW] gnome-terminal background remains faintly transparent when solid color background selected

2010-04-16 Thread Gabriel Bauman
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

This is very subtle. To see this bug, set your desktop background to
black. Open a Nautilus window (or any window with a white background).
Don't maximize the white window.

Now, open gnome-terminal and set the background mode to Solid Color.
Drag the terminal over the edge of the white window. You will be able to
faintly see the white window through the gnome terminal window.

I had desktop effects enabled when I noticed this. I've reproduced it on
multiple machines running Lucid.

This problem causes gnome-terminal windows to lag badly when dragging
them around on slower machines using non-accelerated compositing (such
as the Metacity compositor).

[Bug 418064] Re: Apple.com blocking Gstreamer

2010-04-06 Thread Gabriel Bauman
Apple seems to have re-written their Javascript check for QuickTime
again (April 2010, Lucid beta). Trying to watch a trailer on
http://apple.com/trailers gets me nothing but an Install Quicktime ad.

The problem is that while GStreamer can play Quicktime just fine,
Apple's web site is using Javascript to try to verify that the
'official' version of Quicktime is install. GStreamer doesn't quite
match their test.

This was fixed for a while. Should be simple to fix again.

[Bug 410407] Re: Clicking on items in Flash player does nothing [READ DESCRIPTION]

2010-03-15 Thread Gabriel Bauman
I've seen this on every AMD64 install I have, in both Karmic and Lucid.

In all cases, removing the Ubuntu flashplugin-installer and
nspluginwrapper packages, then manually installing the Adobe Labs 64-bit
native Flash plugin solved the issue.

See http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10_64bit.html to grab it.

Once you've done this, clicks works normally in Flash. No more right
click - left click - left click dance.

The Flash 10 beta should probably be SRU-ed out to amd64 Karmic users
and packaged as default for amd64 Lucid.

[Bug 290527] [NEW] GStreamer applications cannot play .gsm sound files in Intrepid

2008-10-28 Thread Gabriel Bauman
Public bug reported:

I have a service that emails me my voicemail messages in .gsm format. I
have all available gstreamer0.10-* plugins installed, including universe
packages.

Totem and other GStreamer players cannot play these .gsm files. I get an
error saying Cannot determine type of stream.

I can play the files using the command-line program sox and  libsox-fmt-
gsm.

There used to be a gstreamer0.8-gsm package in older versions of Ubuntu.
Perhaps this plugin got dropped when the 0.10 series changed to the
good/bad/ugly packaging.

Find attached a demo sound file and a totem debug log.

I am affected by this when first logging into GNOME after a fresh boot.
As soon as the desktop appears I get two (sometimes three) overlapping

time) and then everything works fine.

I only get this on resume when the machine has been suspended or
hibernated long enough for the gnome-keyring session to have expired.

I'm on a Dell Latitude D620 with the ipw3945 chipset, and an up-to-date

I think the default Dapper behaviour makes sense.

If I put an file on my removable device into the Trash, and then walk to
another machine, it's very convenient that the file appears in the trash
on that machine too.

Most people are only upset about this because USB mass-storage cameras
aren't handled well in Ubuntu. *Cameras and MP3 players* should not
allow .Trash-$USER to exist - plain USB keys should.

[Bug 52722] Re: Consistent 15-second hang with no window painting at launch

2006-07-22 Thread Gabriel Bauman
Nope, just 'eth0', but that line of inquiry is dead; read on.

I got to thinking that this is a network problem, since this is
obviously not a widespread bug. I figured maybe epiphany was doing a
network request that was taking a long time. Bingo!

During the hang, `sudo netstat -a4p | grep epiphany` shows epiphany with
an established UDP connection to the domain socket on my gateway, a
linksys router.

So, I fired up Ethereal and watched packets. A cursory analysis:

 o Hang seems to be originating from some Avahi/MDNS queries related to 
discovering 'Local Sites' bookmarks.
 o There turned out to be a (misconfigured) Avahi server on another machine on 
the LAN. It serves up some MDNS web site pointers for devices on the LAN that 
don't have the capability to do that for themselves.
 o Those devices had been removed from the LAN, but the rogue Avahi server was 
serving _http._tcp.local TXT records for them still.
 o epiphany on my machine gets the SRV records from MDNS, then queries MDNS for 
A records for the advertised services, which it never receives. It then tries 
to query the DNS service on the router to find the records, which fails. This 
happens a few times. Finally it stops trying and the hang ends.
 o ephy starts up. The dummy, invalid 'Local Sites' appear in the menu. 
Selecting one of them sends ephy into the same query fits, but does not hang 
the UI, and the request eventually times out normally.
 
 That narrows it down some. I'm attaching a dump of network traffic during the 
hang.

I'm not familiar with the code, but a simple fix would seem to be making
epiphany  avoid querying for A records from MDNS until the user actually
clicks one of the Local Sites bookmarks.

I can't imagine spurious SRV are all that rare, be nice if this kind of
thing were handled more gracefully. Sorry this took so long to figure
out.

[Bug 53190] Re: Attaching USB camera causes two photo import dialog boxes to be spawned

2006-07-22 Thread Gabriel Bauman
Since this report, the two-dialog problem has occured consistently when
I first connect the camera after booting.

One dialog is definitely meant for mass-storage cameras, and one is
meant for other cameras that require drivers.

After running 'sudo invoke-rc.d networking stop', I can open epiphany
without the hang. So to summarize, Epiphany hangs in the following
situations:

 o The network is up and epiphany is started
 o Epiphany is running and the network is started

Again, CPU usage is normal during the hang.

[Bug 53190] Re: Attaching USB camera causes two photo import dialog boxes to be spawned

2006-07-16 Thread Gabriel Bauman
Interesting!

Disconnecting, then reconnecting the camera gives only one of the gthumb
dialogs (the one with three buttons). The dual dialog spawning only
seems to happen when first connecting the camera. I haven't been able to
duplicate it since.

Perhaps this is a gthumb bug? The dialog with two buttons seems to
launch a gthumb Import dialog (which doesn't see the photos on the
camera), while the dialog with three buttons simply opens gthumb to
browse the camera's USB volume (which is stupid, since import implies
copy to hard drive)

I'd say the dialog with two buttons is only supposed to show when a non-
USB-Mass-Storage camera is connected, and the dialog with three buttons
is only meant to be shown when a USB-Mass-Storage camera is connected.

If you can confirm that this is a gthumb issue, please move this bug.

[Bug 52829] 'Move To New Window' should be removed from the 'Documents' menu to comply with HIG

Public bug reported:

From the GNOME HIG :

===

The Windows menu contains commands that apply to all of the
application's open windows. Only use a Windows menu in multiple document
interface (MDI) applications.

You may also label this menu Documents, Buffers, or similar according to
the type of document handled by your application.

==

Given those guidelines, the Move to New Window option should be
removed from the Documents menu, since it only applies to the active

With an up-to-date Dapper, Epiphany starts up, shows its window, then
freezes for 10 to 15 seconds. During that time, window contents are not

normally and is quite snappy. CPU usage during the delay is a little
high, but not pegged.

Comment:
I reported this about a week ago. See #34058 for a quick summary.

The problem seems to be with evolution not applying settings when you
would expect. Try  editing your account, setting your TLS options etc.,
then:

1. CLick OK in the Account Editor.
2. Click Close in the Evolution Preferences window.

At this point, your changes should have been applied - try hitting
Send/Receive. If it still goes for 143, try doing the above and then
closing/reopening evolution.

Unmount or Eject, why is something being Removed?

 o The bold text, Writing data to storage device device label is
much more indicative of what is actually happening (if a bit wordy).

Might I suggest something like the following:

 o Window title: Saving changes
 o Bold caption: Saving changes to files on device label
 o Warning: Please do not remove the device until this operation is complete.

Description:
This report applies to evolution package 2.5.92-0ubuntu1.

While editing my IMAP account properties, Evolution lets me select
connection encryption type under the Security heading on the
Receiving Email tab.

The problem is, if I choose SSL or TLS encryption, Evolution attempts to
connect to my mail server on port 143. Many IMAP servers are configured
to offer TLS/SSL connections on server port 993 (imaps).

Since this version of Evolution does not allow me to specify the IMAP
port it should connect to, and since it does not use port 993 when 143
is closed, I cannot check my email.

[Bug 34175] Broken internet radio playlist handling

2006-03-08 Thread Gabriel Bauman
Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/34175

Affects: rhythmbox (Ubuntu)
   Severity: Normal
   Priority: (none set)
 Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
This is an upstream problem affecting rhythmbox package
0.9.3.1-0ubuntu2.

Right now, when a user clicks on a URL linked to a radio station's PLS
or M3U playlist file, the playlist appears to get downloaded by the
browser, and opened by Rhythmbox. Rhythmbox then makes an entry in its
Radio screen FOR EACH ENTRY in the playlist. This results in several
entries for the same radio station in Rhythmbox. Worse, radio stations
update their playlists to point to different streaming servers over
time, so all those entries get stale and stop working.

For a demonstration, click the following link and open it in Rhythmbox:
http://somafm.com/groovesalad.pls . You will get something like six entries in 
the station list for the same SomaFM station, all linked to different IPs. This 
is clearly wrong, since the IPs used by those entries may change in the future 
and the playlist is the only way to find out about such changes.

You can also see this problem if you use Music-New Internet Radio
Station. If you enter the URL of a .pls or .m3u file, you again get
multiple entries for radio stations that will expire over time.

The only way to get Rhythmbox 0.9.3.1 to handle things properly is to
right click an existing internet radio station, select Properties,
Details tab, and change the Location to the URL of the playlist. This
appears to force Rhythmbox to reload the playlist on play, then pick the
first available stream, which ought to be the standard behaviour.

So, Rhythmbox needs to receive the URL of the playlist when a .PLS or
.M3U link is clicked, then associate that URL with a single entry in the
Radio screen. It should never keep the contents of a playlist cached
between listening sessions.

Another note: I mentioned this in #rhythmbox on GimpNet, and got the following 
response...

neiras Man... I really find the Internet Radio directory in 0.9.3.1 annoying. 
Create a new Internet Radio feed, feed it a .pls location, and BOOM - six 
entries for different streams offered by the radio station
neiras There should be one entry for a station. IPs in PLS files can change, 
often.
moch anyway, yes, there are various annoyances in how we handle playlist 
files at the moment.  what we really need is to change the way stations are 
stored so we can handle multiple stream urls, but that would be quite difficult.
neiras Even if the multiple URLs aren't stored? The PLS file should really be 
downloaded every time the user goes to play the station, and the first working 
stream URL should be selected.
neiras You really only need to store the PLS url
moch there's some reason we stopped doing that, but I can't remember what it 
is.
neiras ayee
moch doctau might remember, but he seems to have vanished.
