[Bug 486024] Re: Unhelpful error message when trying to unmount busy device

2009-12-16 Thread Mr.Mizzen
Sequence Clarification:

Attach drive  Popup box to decrypt drive  Drive mounts and shows on desktop.
rsync data to drive
Some time later - minutes or even hours.
Right click drive on desktop  Safely remove drive
Sometimes there is an animated popup asking to wait while the file write is 
completed. Some times there is no such popup.
Animated Verification of write complete or not - 
the error message of device busy unable to unmount always pops up, but the 
device is in fact unmounted.
If I remount the drive and rsync again, there is no indication that a file did 
not complete the transfer.

Just a thought, but it could be rsync that is holding something open, or
perhaps cryptsetup luksclose gets hung up.

[Bug 496603] [NEW] aberrant behavior / .comments folders and xml files

2009-12-14 Thread Mr.Mizzen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gthumb


ProblemType: Bug
Architecture: AMD64
DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10
gThumb 2.10.11


It took a long time to track down what was creating these folders and files, 
but they are created when certain files are viewed with gThumb. 
I.E. If an image has any IPTC data, gThumb makes a hidden folder and xml file.

Normally I have gThumb set to show Thumbnails and File Name. “Comments”
are not selected.

For the sample image:
Selecting File  Properties  Photo Data (EXIF) tab it says:

Software:   Adobe Photoshop 7
Date Time:  2002:12:08 etc.
Image Description:  Long text

This same long text appears on the Comment tab.

Using mapivi to view all the embedded data, it shows:

IPTC: Long text
Comments:   
EXIF:   2002:12:08 etc.

Although I have many files with data in the field mapavi refers to as comments, 
this shows up no where in the image properties with gThumb. 
gThumb and mapavi refer to different fields with the name comment(s)

The real problem:
Every time gThumb displays a file with data in the IPTC / Comment field, it 
creates a .comment folder and a xml file for each image.
If all of my images had data in the IPTC field, I would end up with thousands 
of .comment folders and over half a million xml files.

Suggestions / Requests:
When the comment field is not set to show comments, gThumb should not make an 
xml file. That would solve most of the problem.
Next, if gThumb absolutely has to create these xml files in order to display 
the data, they should either be deleted when done, centrally located like the 
thumbnails are, or centrally located in an Sqlite file.

With as many images as I have, I have been working on a script to add
comments and keywords to the files. I think you can see that as of now,
doing that would then add over half a million xml files to my system.
Not a good idea

In the mean time, is there some special gconf setting I can use to completely 
suppress making the xml files? 
Can some one point me to the section of the gThumb source code to rip out or 
any compiler switch so that I can recompile without this feature?

Sample image that always makes the .comments folder and xml file

[Bug 486780] Re: Unable to mount blank optical disk

2009-11-24 Thread Mr.Mizzen
 * Is this reproducible? 
Yes
 * If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?
Use Nautilus Write to Disk with a DVD-R disk, when the write is complete, the 
error should pop up.

I mostly use RW media and with RW this has never happened. 
When the application finishes, apparently it does not check to see if there is 
a blank disk if RW media.
With R only media, the disk of course is not blank optical media  after a 
write, so it pops up the error.

[Bug 31102] Re: Can't disable tooltips

2009-11-22 Thread Mr.Mizzen
The worst offenders at the moment are the pop ups over the workspaces.

At the very least, with Compiz active, the pop up will say “Current Workspace: 
Desk 1”.
Every workspace has incessant reminders to “Click to start dragging  xxx”. I 
have known that for a few years now.
This situation is magnified when using Compiz.
The attachment shows how the pop up displays the entire title of a web page 
from Firefox. This pop up covers almost ¼ of the whole desktop every time the 
mouse passes over the workspaces.
The second screen shot shows what happens when the mouse goes over the Firefox 
task bar when in the same workspace.

Admittedly, the issues is not as bad if not running Compiz because the
pop up is somewhat truncated, but it is still an issue.

@aoirthoir:
The gtkrc files go with the themes. You will find the themes in either 
~/.themes/ or /usr/share/themes in the case of system-wide default themes.
There is no ~/.themes/ on my system. 
/usr/share/themes contains 118 folders. Controls and boarders and complete 
themes all have a folder, only icons get their own place /usr/share/icons

edit ~/.gtkrc-2.0
and add the line
gtk-enable-tooltips = 0

Rummaging through 118 folders to permanently change this setting  is NOT
a valid fix for this problem

[Bug 463200] Re: Nautilus no longer generates thumbnails for images

2009-11-19 Thread Mr.Mizzen
In an effort to track down the source of the problem,
Launching Nautilus from a terminal I get:

I installed nautilus-dbg, then tried gdb to get a back trace. 
I launch gdb with my usual setup:
gdb nautilus 21 | tee gdb-nautilus1.txt
(gdb) handle SIG33 pass nostop noprint
(gdb) set pagination 0
(gdb) run

However, it 
a) reports

(no debugging symbols found)...done.
b) exits and nautilus restarts without it.

Can someone give me a few hints on how to properly backtrace a nautilus process?

[Bug 463200] Re: Nautilus no longer generates thumbnails for images

2009-11-11 Thread Mr.Mizzen
(Nautilus Nautilus 2.28.1, AMD64)
Same or similar problem:
Some folders will randomly stop displaying thumbnails.
Selecting the folder on the left side tree view gives a blank display on the 
right side and a spinning cursor.
Deleting files from /.thumbnails has no positive effect. At best when I view 
the folder again, I get thumbnail place holders but no thumbnails.
I looked to see if it was a mime problem, but on my system there is no 
.local/share/mime folder as suggested above.

The only oddity about these folders is when I use gThumb to view files, it 
leaves a /.comments folder with an xml file I can not open.
So far the only semi cure I have for this is a reboot. 
Then at least once I can view the files / thumbnails within the folders. 
Anytime there after, I can expect a blank view to appear.

This directory is hung up at the moment:

From the terminal, if I launch gthumb, then view each file, I get this output 
on the term:
r...@imperial-command:/Archive/0/00 Wallpapers/New-Fantasy-Images# gthumb 
3128123_thumbnail.jpg
gth_minimal_exif_tag_read: TAG value does not fit, Can't read full value
gth_minimal_exif_tag_read: TAG value does not fit, Can't read full value
gth_minimal_exif_tag_read: TAG value does not fit, Can't read full value
r...@imperial-command:/Archive/0/00 Wallpapers/New-Fantasy-Images# 

This is probably what is making the unreadable .comments/name.xml
I assume exif tags would have nothing to do with making thumbs though.
