[Bug 984574] Re: [network]: gnome-control-center crashed with SIGSEGV in refresh_ui()

2012-05-02 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Booted AMD x64 Desktop CD as "Try Ubuntu" on my desktop machine to see
how it would handle my FireMV video card. No install done - I'm running
the live CD.  8GB memory.

Went to the Dash Home, typed "n", selected Network.
Selected All Settings.  Selected Network.  Died.

Repeatable.  Every time.  I can open any number of other Settings
entries, but I can't open Network twice.  It always dies on the second
try.  Once, even opening another Settings icon also caused it to die
(after starting with Network).

I have one onboard 1G NIC, two PCI 100M NICs, one USB 1G NIC (that's
four "Wired" entries).

[Bug 855967] Re: vinagre crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_cast()

2011-10-27 Thread Ian! D. Allen
So vinaigre crashed (Ubuntu 11.04) and sent me through the bug reporting
process, collecting 50MB of reporting information and uploading it all.

Here in Launchpad, I was offered two similar crashes and asked if either
matched mine.  Of course one did, so I chose it.  As far as I can tell,
Launchpad then threw away all my uploaded crash report tracing info and
simply added my name to the "this affects me" count.

Now that I open up this bug, I see that it is "Incomplete" requiring a
"useful symbolic stack trace".  For all I know, my crash had one, but
Launchpad in its wisdom threw away my stack trace when it decided that
my crash was similar to this one.

Shouldn't Launchapd *always* upload the additional crash report info for
developers to look at, rather than throwing it away, especially for bugs
marked "Incomplete - need stack trace"?

I have the dump sitting here at home if you want me to do something with
it:

[Bug 467169] Re: keyboard shortcuts UI issues; fails to set shortcut

2010-10-19 Thread Ian! D. Allen
These bugs still exist in Maverick.

10.10 Maverick: Open: System | Preferences | Keyboard Shortcuts.

Verfify that "Toggle maximization state | ALT+F10" works on a window.
Disable the keyboard shortcut with "Backspace".
BUG: The UI shows "Disabled", but ALT+F10 still toggles maximization.

At this point, the UI shows no mapping for ALT+F10, but the shortcut
still maximizes windows.  Disable has done nothing.

Map "Toggle maximization state" to ALT+MOD4+F10 and verify that it works.
Note that ALT-F10 now does nothing, as expected.
Disable the keyboard shortcut with "Backspace".
BUG: The UI shows "Disabled", but ALT+MOD4+F10 still toggles maximization.

At this point, the UI shows no mapping for ALT+MOD4+F10, but the shortcut
still maximizes windows.  Disable has done nothing.

Map "Toggle screen reader" to ALT+MOD4+F10.
Disable the keyboard shortcut with "Backspace".
Map "Toggle maximization state" to ALT+MOD4+F10.
Now, ALT+MOD4+F10 does nothing, and no amount of playing around will
get it to do anything.  I cannot assign ALT+MOD4+F10 to anything else.

It seems that any shortcut that you assign to "Toggle screen reader"
gets killed and made useless for anything else.

If you try to assign ALT+F11 or ALT+SHIFT+F11 to two functions, it will
correctly complain and tell you in the reassignment that one will be
disabled.  But you can assign ALT+MOD4+F10 or ALT+MOD4+F11 to multiple
functions and it won't complain at all.  One of the functions might work;
the others will be ignored.

Map "Toggle maximization state" to ALT+F12 and verify it toggles.
Disable the keyboard shortcut with "Backspace".
BUG: The UI shows "Disabled", but ALT+F12 still toggles maximization.
Map "Toggle shaded state" to ALT+F12.
BUG: ALT+F12 still toggles maximization, even though the UI says it
should toggle shaded state.
Map "Toggle maximization state" to anything other than ALT+F12.
Now ALT+F12 correctly toggles shaded state.

This is a mess.

[Bug 515935] [NEW] causes Xorg to consume CPU unless Gnome is running

2010-02-02 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

If I run gnome-system-monitor under Gnome, my Xorg process uses one or
two percent of one CPU core and this seems normal.

If I shut down Gnome and run gnome-system-monitor with *no* window
manager (only Xorg), or with "vtwm" as my window manager, the Xorg
process use goes over 15% on one of the four cores.  Killing gnome-
system-monitor causes the Xorg CPU use to drop back to near zero.

This makes gnome-system-monitor somewhat unusable except when Gnome is
running.  I did not expect Xorg CPU use to become unreasonable when
gnome-system-monitor is run under a non-Gnome environment.

I already gave one example:

   "e.g. "Minimize window / ALT-F9".  The UI says "disabled" but the
shortcut still works, until logout/login."

Here are others that, after I disable them and the UI shows "Disabled",
are not actually disabled but continue to work:

Show the panel's "Run Application" dialog box
Show the panel's main menu
Take a screenshot
Activate the window menu
Toggle maximization state
Minimize window
etc.

See also the same problem here:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/467169

I use the standard 9.10 install into a new VMware.  The install did not
ask me about any desktop "effects", so I don't know what they might be.

[Bug 467169] Re: keyboard shortcuts UI issues; fails to set shortcut

2009-11-01 Thread Ian! D. Allen
I find this Gnome bug reporting process via Ubuntu to be discouraging,
unfriendly, and in need of reworking.

I've just spent a bunch of my time researching and documenting a bug,
registering it with Launchpad, searching for duplicates, and reporting it.
Now Ubuntu tells me: "we don't write this software; go login somewhere
else and repeat the whole process somewhere else".  I read other Ubuntu
bugs where others are being told the same thing.  This is discouraging.

You should have told me to go elsewhere at the time I was first reporting
the bug, so that I wouldn't duplicate all the login and search work:

   "Thank you for attempting to report a Gnome bug, but the piece
of software you are listing isn't written by Ubuntu and so any work
you do registering with Ubuntu Launchpad and searching for duplicate
bugs will be wasted, because we're going to tell you the bug isn't
our problem.  Rather than waste your time, please go directly to
the people who write the software and report the bug there."

Even when telling me to go somewhere else, you use jargon words such as
"upstream" that I'm sure mean nothing to most Ubuntu users.

The Wiki you sent me to should say in the opening lines: "You've been
sent here because your bug report needs to go directly to the people
who wrote the software.  Here's how to transfer a Launchpad bug report
to be a Gnome bug report.  Follow these steps."

   "If you've already gone to all the trouble of creating a Launchpad
account, searching for duplicates, and submitting your Gnome bug, then
we're sorry to say your time has been wasted unless you also create
a Gnome Bugzilla account, again search for duplicates, again submit
a bug report, and then link your Bugzilla bug to your Launchpad bug
(and vice-versa).  You have to do the work twice, otherwise nobody
will know about the bug."

The first several screens worth of text in the Wiki don't even mention
Launchpad, and they don't say why I was sent there or what to do.
The first sentence on the Wiki page again uses the jargon word "upstream"
without explaining what it means.

Instead of a prominent heading "Transfer Launchpad bug report to Gnome",
I have to look several screens down under "Filing new bugs" to know
what needs to be done.  The points in that section aren't even ordered
correctly - the bullet item "open a new bug" appears *before* the title
"Before submitting a new bug".  Why not just put the steps in order,
rather than telling people, after the fact, what they should have done?
And who is going to read all the way to the bottom line on the page,
where you are told to link your Launchpad bug to your Bugzilla bug?
Why not put that right into the bullet list of points on what to do?

This isn't friendly.  Can I (or someone else) rewrite that Wiki page
into a single, numbered list of steps to follow?

2009-11-01 Thread Ian! D. Allen
 * Is this reproducible?
 * If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?

Yes.  To recreate it, do what I said to do, above:  Try to use a keyboard
shortcut to "maximze" the window.  Does nothing.  Set your "Titlebar
Action" to be "Maximize Vertically" and then double-click on the title
bar of the window.  Does nothing.  Dragging with the mouse works.

 * Do you use compiz therE?

I don't know what that is.  I did a standard install of 9.10 into an
empty VMware virtual machine.  It never asked me about compiz.

[Bug 467169] [NEW] keyboard shortcuts UI issues; fails to set shortcut

2009-10-31 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Fresh install of 9.10 karmic into VMWare running on 8.10.

Keyboard Shortcuts are mangled under 9.10 karmic.  (They may be mangled
under previous releases, but I didn't ever try to use them.  This is my
first try to use Gnome instead of vtwm.)

Watch this:

9.10 Karmic: Open System | Preferences | Keyboard Shortcuts.

Verfify that "Move between windows immediately | ALT+Escape" is working.
Disable it with "Backspace".
BUG: The UI shows "Disabled", but ALT+Escape still moves between windows.

At this point, the UI should show no mapping for ALT+Escape, but the
shortcut still tries to move between windows.

Map "Switch to workspace on the left of the current workspace" to
  "ALT+Escape" and verify that it works (bringing up a little desktop
  viewer menu that says "Desk 1").
Disable it with "Backspace".
BUG: The UI shows "Disabled", but ALT+Escape still switches workspaces.

At this point, the UI should again show no mapping for ALT+Escape, but the
shortcut still tries to switch workspaces.

Map "Move between windows immediately" to "ALT+Escape" again.
Try to use it.
BUG: It doesn't work - ALT+Escape still tries to switch workspaces.
Disable it with "Backspace".
BUG: The UI shows "Disabled", but ALT+Escape still switches workspaces.

At this point, the UI should again show no mapping for ALT+Escape, but the
shortcut still tries to switch workspaces.

Map "Switch to workspace on the left of the current workspace" to
  "ALT+Escape" and verify that it works (bringing up a little desktop
  viewer menu that says "Desk 1").
Map "Move between windows immediately" to "ALT+Escape".  The UI warns you
  that you are re-assigning the shortcut.  Say "Reassign".  The UI shows
  that the shortcut moves from "Switch workspace" to "Move between".
Try to use it.
BUG: It still doesn't work - ALT+Escape still tries to switch workspaces.
Disable it with "Backspace".
BUG: The UI shows "Disabled", but ALT+Escape still switches workspaces.

At this point, the UI should again show no mapping for ALT+Escape, but the
shortcut still tries to switch workspaces.

Map "Switch to workspace on the left of the current workspace" to
  "ALT+1" and verify that it works (bringing up a little desktop viewer
  menu that says "Desk 1").
Now try ALT+Escape (which the UI shows as not being mapped).
BUG: ALT+Escape now moves between windows again, even though it doesn't 
  show anywhere in the UI, and wasn't mapping correctly a moment ago.

Disable "Switch to workspace on the left of the current workspace".
BUG: ALT+1 still tries to switch workspaces.

At this point, the UI should show no mapping for ALT+Escape, but the
shortcut still tries to move between windows.

At this point, the UI should show no mapping for ALT+1, but the
shortcut still tries to switch workspaces.

Map "Move between windows immediately" to "ALT+1".
Try to use it.
BUG: It doesn't work - ALT+1 still tries to switch workspaces.
ALT+Escape, which was working, even though it shouldn't,
has now stopped working and doesn't do anything.

This is unusable.

2009-10-31 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Fresh install of 9.10 karmic into VMware running on host O/S 8.10.

The "Keyboard Shortcuts" window lets me use my mouse to resize it by
dragging on the borders, but it ignores keyboard shortcuts to
"maximize", and if I set double-clicking window titles to "maximize
vertically", the window ignores that, too.

I don't see why this window should be treated any differently from any
other window.  Let these things work.

[Bug 466948] [NEW] keyboard shortcuts disable requires logout/login

2009-10-31 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Fresh install of 9.10 karmic into a VMware virtual machine (host O/S is
8.10).  All updates applied (October 31, 2009).

Nowhere do I read that you have to logout/login for keyboard shortcut
disables to take effect.

If disables are supposed to work without a logout/login, then this is a bug in 
the software.  If you are supposed
to logout/login for a shortcut disable to be effective, then this is a bug in 
the documentation and the
"Keyboard Shortcuts" window should say "logout/login for changes to take 
effect".

Pick any keyboard shortcut and disable it, e.g. "Minimize window / ALT-F9".
The UI says "disabled" but the shortcut still works, until logout/login.

There are more problems with re-assigning keyboard shortcuts; I'll
document them in a separate report.

2009-03-30 Thread Ian! D. Allen
This is still a problem in 9.04 Jaunty Beta.

This failure of Nautilus to start makes it difficult to configure 9.04
to run well in a VMware virtual machine, since the VMware Tools CDROM ISO
image can't be attached without causing a Nautilus crash loop that fills
the task bar.  You have to SIGSTOP Nautilus, mount the CDROM ISO file
manually, install VMware tools, unmount the ISO, then SIGCONT Nautilus.

This is a documentation content error, not a program execution error.

[Bug 338193] Re: clock manual preferences do not match clock applet

2009-03-06 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Sure would be nice if the "Report a problem" function on the yelp Help menu
made the distinction between "report a problem with yelp" and
"report a problem with the documentation yelp is showing".

Of course, for the Clock Manual there is a link to "About this Document" that
has a Feedback button that says "to report a bug regarding the Clock Manual",
but that's the very button whose link is broken:  ghelp:gnome-feedback
(It's also broken in Ubuntu 8.10 as well as 9.04.)  How do you report a problem
with the mechanism that reports problems?

I note that the Feedback button is buried under several screens worth of Legal 
Notice.
You have to really want to post a documentation bug to go looking for that 
button, which
might explain why this has been broken for so long.

2009-03-05 Thread Ian! D. Allen
> this looks like bug 325973

It resembles it, but in my case nautilus is actually dying over and over with a 
SIGABRT,
where the above bug doesn't show that symptom.

Backtrace attached, such as it is.

It's tricky to get a backtrace of a system program that faults every two 
seconds and dies.
I had to "killall -STOP nautilus", set up the gdb session, and then kill -CONT 
nautilus and
attach gdb quickly to the pid.  I hope the result is useful.

In the Clock Manual, the Preferences page lists preferences that are not

the clock applet doesn't offer Unix Time or Internet Time or Use UTC, etc.

[Bug 338192] [NEW] yelp run from command line cannot report a problem

2009-03-05 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: yelp

Ubuntu 9.04 jaunty Alpha 5 with several hundred package updates applied.

I had asked for help from the Clock applet, and I noticed the help didn't match
the applet, so I chose "Report a Problem", which started up a browser report for
something called "yelp".  I double-checked the About menu and was told that
the application was "Help 2.25.1", not "yelp".  I did a process listing, and 
didn't
see anything named "yelp" running, only "gnome-help".  So I read the "yelp"
man page and then started "yelp" from the command line, and it started the
Gnome help application (a second copy).  Is the program "gnome-help" called
"yelp" in the packaging and documentation?  That's confusing.

I did a process listing, and I could see the yelp I had run from the
command line:

4 0  5840  4796  20   0 121652 50904 poll   Sl   pts/0  0:03
yelp

I did some searches in the new Gnome help window, then went back to the
previous Clock help window, and at some point the yelp I had run crashed:

I/O error : Is a directory
I/O error : Is a directory
[1]+  Segmentation fault  (core dumped) yelp

The top menu bar showed a "!" icon telling me to click on it to report a crash.
I tried to do that; the report a crash application apparently itself crashed 
and I
couldn't submit anything that way.

So I started yelp from terminal again, e.g. just typed "yelp" at the bash 
prompt.
When yelp opened, I tried "Report a Problem". and I got this mess:

[Bug 337910] Re: nautilus repeated SIGABRT in VMware on live CD and DVD

2009-03-04 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Goodness, it's a pain to do all the configuration and download all the
software needed to get a backtrace, isn't it?  I'll try to find time to do
all that later.  Couldn't you build a little script that would do all the
work, e.g. "ubuntu-backtrace nautilus" would do all those config steps,
download the symbols, etc.?  Please make bug reporting and tracing as
painless as possible!

I have more information on the nautilus problem:

I reran my virtual machine.  I chose the "Install" menu item from the CD
(which is a virtual CD - the virtual CDROM is attached to the Jaunty
ISO file on my host system) and everything installed fine onto the
virtual disk, and at reboot and login my desktop came up without any
looping/dying nautilus problem.

Then I noticed that the CDROM was listed as "disconnected" - I didn't
have the Ubuntu CDROM icon visible on the desktop and there was a red
"X" over the CDROM in the VMware Workstation status line.  So I used
Workstation to enable the CDROM.  Boom - nautilus started looping.

I disconnected the virtual CDROM.  The looping/dying stopped.

I reconnected the virtual CDROM.  The looping/dying started.

I configured a second virtual CDROM and attached it to the ISO file, and
enabled it.  The looping/dying started again.  I disconnected it.

I attached the virtual CDROM to my real, physical CDROM, stuck in an
old Ubuntu install CD, and enabled it.  The CD spun up and the Ubuntu
icon appeared on my desktop.  No looping.

So, the nautilus looping/dying problem only happens when the virtual
CDROM is connected to an ISO image in the host file system.

[Bug 337910] [NEW] nautilus repeated SIGABRT in VMware on live CD and DVD

2009-03-04 Thread Ian! D. Allen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

I used VMware Workstation to create a 1GB/8GB virtual machine, attached
the latest (Feb 28) Jaunty DVD to the CDROM port, and booted it as
"try without installing".  Both the CD and DVD versions came up with a
desktop background and a task bar showing nautilus processes starting
and dying - the task bar was filling with nautilus entries and nothing
ever appeared on the desktop.

I started a terminal and did "killall -STOP nautilus" to stop the looping
nautilus and then straced the stopped nautilus process (which resumed
as soon as the strace attached to it).  Nautilus quickly died with
a SIGABRT and another nautilus started, which died, etc.  I repeated
this STOP/strace sequence twice.  Each nautilus died with this system
call pattern:
