[Bug 433654] Re: [Karmic]&[Lucid] Only one user has sound; no hw shows in Sound Preferences
Milan, I think that removing audio group is not a good idea. There are at least 2 reasons. 1. It might affect a lot of system components at least udev, libmtp, alsa which might cause regressions. 2. It would prevent group based access control to the audio device - mind that /dev is dynamic, so configuring back /dev/dsp group owned by audio will not be that easy - i.e. this kind of access control is crucial if your box is used remotely as a juke box. -- [Karmic]&[Lucid] Only one user has sound; no hw shows in Sound Preferences https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433654 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Good point Erik. I'm not sure about that 'Administrator Profile' either - that's why I didn't propose to change it. But It seems to be reasonable to remove audio group from all three profiles. I guess packaging is not a problem, committing the changes and making them to Lucid might be though.

[Bug 433654] Re: [Karmic]&[Lucid] Only one user has sound; no hw shows in Sound Preferences
Regarding the property 'Use audio device' and my motion (comment #48).
Giving it a second thought the rename might be unfortunate. Especially
if one does not have consolekit installed.
If consolekit IS NOT installed than assigning a user to audio group
makes an audio device accessible to him, which translates into 'Use
audio device' property which does that (by the way it seems that all
these properties translate into assigning the user to particular
groups).
If console kit IS installed, than upon log in/user switching, it
applies, through udev, acl to make /dev/{snd,audio,mixer) accessible by
the user which logs in/is switched to. Than, assiginig a user to audio
group doesn't make any sense and the name is misleading.
Bottomline. Since consolekit depends on ubuntu-dektop, which makes it
default and necessary package for ubuntu, the best solution would be not
to include a default desktop user in the audio group. It can be
performed by altering the gnome user profiles in /etc/gnome-system-
tools/users/profiles, see included attachment.

[Bug 433654] Re: [Karmic]&[Lucid] Only one user has sound; no hw shows in Sound Preferences
Actually the problem is more general and it regards permissions to access certain devices (and files in /dev directory). Historically if a user needs access to particular device he is assigned to a group which group-owns the device file. It has worked for ages in the unix world i.e. access to an audio device, cdrom, cd burner etc. This group based approach has several well known limitations. Now it seems that such an access is controlled by consolekit/policykit/udev, which makes some sense, at least because of the dynamic nature of /dev directory. The gnome-system-tools and especially users-admin seem not to know anything about acl. I'm not sure whether it's good or bad - it depends, espoecially that gnome is cross platform - on other systems /dev might be static or there might be no acl at all. So I guess it should be up to the ubuntu team to keep the group assignments and acl sane and well documented, and the entire mechanism clear. Unfortunatelly I haven't found any explanation of it :( in the documentation. Perhaps a good idea it is to start a thread about it in the ubuntu formums. However, in my opinion, such a big thing as device access policy should be officially documented - not reverse engineered! -- [Karmic]&[Lucid] Only one user has sound; no hw shows in Sound Preferences https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433654 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 433654] Re: [Karmic]&[Lucid] Only one user has sound; no hw shows in Sound Preferences
PS2. Disabling 'Use audio device' removes the user from audio group. And since /dev/dsp is acl controlled, access to it is granted to the user which currently uses the display. I guess that the ACL magic is done by policykit/udev - but i'm not sure though. So, to enable sound switching with user switching, just remove your users from audio group. -- [Karmic]&[Lucid] Only one user has sound; no hw shows in Sound Preferences https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433654 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-system-tools in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Sebastien, Could you ask upstream if there is any other reason for not loading subtitles for a file ending with .txt, please ? This very behavior, loading .txt as well as .srt subtiltes, is implemented by some other players such as mplayer and xine (and as far as I know a couple of standalone DVD/DivX players also). I'm a little bit confused by the upstream statement that they will not use .txt since it's hard to tell if it is a subtitle file or not. There are a couple of subtitle standards anyway, so one way or the other upon upening a subtitle file there has to be an algorithm implemented which detects the subtitle standard and read it. So what's wrong with trying both .srt and .txt files then?

[Bug 494741] [NEW] enhancement proposal: ability to move windows
Public bug reported: I have a dual-head setup (NVidia TwinView) where the second screen is an overhead projector. I would find it extremely useful if I could just drag windows using the Workspace Switcher between my screens. This would help a lot especially at times when the projector is blanked or switched off and I would like to move some windows to be projected when switched on/unblanked. For now windows can be dragged to different workspaces without altering they relative position (within workspace). What I propose is to make it possible to change the window position WITHIN the workspace by dragging it. Such a functionality is present ie. in the fvwm workspace switcher (whatever it's called). I made a modification which implements the proposal (see the patch) and submitted it upstream. I'm reporting it here just in case if the upstream decides to dump it. ** Affects: libwnck (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- enhancement proposal: ability to move windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to libwnck in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
