[Bug 994527] [NEW] Gimp Toolbox and Layers, etc. docks obscured by Unity Launcher and Panel

2012-05-04 Thread Mal
Public bug reported:

When Gimp is run after a fresh install on 12.04 Precise Pangolin, the
Toolbox and the Layers, etc. Docks are located in the top-left and top-
right corners of the screens such that they are partially obscured by
the Unity Launcher and Top Panel.  This results in the Toolbox, in
particular, being unusable, because some of the buttons are
inaccessible.  It is not possible to move the docks away from these
positions.

I was able to work around this problem by changing the "Window
Management Hints" in "Preferences/Window Management" from "Utility" to
"Normal".  After closing and reloading the Gimp, this places the docks
in normal windows that are clear of the Launcher and Top Panel and able
to be relocated.  However, this will not be obvious to a new user.

[Bug 439448] Re: visual corruption affecting several panel applets

2010-09-11 Thread Mal
To All,

As an experiment, I have adjusted the positions of the panel applets to
leave some space between them and then added separators.  After a few
days, I have not seen any visual corruption.  However, as this is an
intermittent problem, I can't be sure that these changes have actually
made any difference.

If anyone else would like to try this, it might be useful to see if this
could be an easy work-around.

Mal.

[Bug 164120] Re: file manager hangs when mounted nfs drive is no longer accessible

2010-08-09 Thread Mal
If it's any help, I think this bug actually arises from a change in
kernel behavior introduced after version 2.6.22 and fixed in kernels
from 2.6.33.  See my posts 17 and 18 in this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/234480.

I added the 3 second delay to 2 machines and they have not seen the

Actually, it appears that a patch has been submitted for this problem
(see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=556932#c10).  I don't
know how long it will take for this to filter through to Ubuntu.  Maybe
it will be fixed in Lucid.

[Bug 282315] Re: Gnome-sudoku timings all wrong

2009-11-28 Thread Mal Gamble
I have also found that Sudoku in Karmic always reports game times of
about 58 seconds.

After having a bit of a look around the source, it seems that the
problem relates to the autosave function.  Autosave is triggered ever 60
seconds (or the time set by gconf /apps/gnome-
sudoku/auto_save_interval).  On each autosave, the module saver.py
triggers a "timer.finish_timing" event.  This stops the timer and means
that the final reported game time will be incorrect.

I found that by setting the autosave interval to a large number (I used
6),  autosave is effectively disabled and the timer works correctly.
I also tried setting this to zero, but this just causes the program to
default to 60 seconds.

I'm not sure if there are any serious consequences of disabling the
autosave feature.  I guess it just means that the game state could be
lost if the session is ended unexpectedly.

[Bug 164120] Re: nautilus hangs when mounted nfs drive is no longer accessible

2008-08-07 Thread Mal Gamble
Actually, I think this bug is related to problem with mount.nfs trying
to mount an export on a non-existent server.  See
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/234480.

This problem has appeared in Ubuntu Hardy but not in Gutsy.

By the way, I don't see why a design flaw couldn't be a bug.  (I think
Microsoft would call a design flaw a "feature")  :-)

I am seeing this problem with the updated nfs-common package in Hardy.
As shown below, I get about a 38 second hang when attempting to mount an
export from an off-line server.  The same thing on Gutsy produces a "No
route to host" message and returns in about 3 seconds.

[Bug 132939] Re: [gutsy] Suspend does not work from GDM login screen

2007-11-23 Thread Mal Gamble
I have the same problem with 2 different desktop computers.  The
following error message appears in /var/log/syslog after an unsuccessful
attempt to suspend from the gdm login screen:

"... gdm[6792]: WARNING: Request for configuration key
daemon/SuspendCommand=, but not type STRING"

The SuspendCommand setting in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf looks OK to me.

The Shutdown option on the gdm login screen works fine.
