[Bug 192172] Re: Notification area tray icons take a long time to load.

2008-05-09 Thread Siegfried Rutherford Sheldrake
I have been using Hardy Alpha 6 and have not (as yet) updated to the
full 8.04 release, which may be aggravating matters.

However, I have not changed anything out of the ordinary, nor altered
the startup sequence or programs called.

The only things other than the default install that are enabled on this
machine are: NVidia Closed Source drivers, Compiz Fusion GIT Master.

I understand that this is not helpful in the slightest; I'm not exactly
sure what would be useful for getting this bug fixed- are there any
files or logs that would help you (I'm more than willing to get them,
but I have no idea as to which ones would be useful for you)?

[Bug 203666] [NEW] Thumbnails for high-resolution images are generated each time folders are opened.

2008-03-18 Thread Siegfried Rutherford Sheldrake
Public bug reported:

In Hardy Heron (8.04) alpha;

If high resolution images are viewed with thumbnails, and the zoom
increased from 100%, the thumbnails are generated for those images, as
expected.

However, these thumbnails are NOT cached and navigation to that folder
causes them to be regenerated each time. As you might imagine, this
causes the system load to increase whenever those folders are opened,
especially if there are a great deal of pictures in those folders.

This seems to be a problem with all image types.

(I do not know about .CR2 or RAW files, as I do not have a plugin for
viewing them)

I have tried the method that you stated; It was not .gconf that was
causing the problem, it would seem. I removed .gconf and booted to find
the same problem. I then removed .gnome2 from the home directory to user
the standard config for those files; the issue was rectified.

Unfortunately in the process of doing this, I seem to have deleted the
file indefinitely.

This error has also occurred on my Gutsy gibbon install, after creating

2008-02-18 Thread Siegfried Rutherford Sheldrake
I haven't managed to identify the exact configuration that is causing
this; I have created a new user and migrated all my personal settings to
it, excluding the .* files in my ~/ directory.

This has fixed both this bug and
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/187862 (bug
187862)

However this appears to have lead to another bug coming into effect:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-panel/+bug/192172 (bug

I am not exactly sure what has caused this. However, I would recommend
anyone else who has experienced this bug to create a new user and
migrate all files across to it. :)

[Bug 192172] [NEW] Notification area tray icons take a long time to load.

2008-02-15 Thread Siegfried Rutherford Sheldrake
Public bug reported:

(This occurs on Hardy Heron for me, although I have spoken to other
users who experience it on Gutsy Gibbon)

After logging in from the GDM screen, the icons in the Notification area
tray do not load in a reasonably time (~5-10 minutes at times). This is
especially important for programs such as Compiz's fusion-icon, as
without it, no window manager can be started and unless one is started
from a terminal using Application-Accessories-Terminal and starting
either Compiz or Metacity in this way, can you use the computer at all.

This problem may be attributed to the use of Wireless drivers, as all
the cases I know of (and on my laptop, using the proprietary Intel
drivers) occur on installations with wireless internet access.

Is it possible that the system waits for some call or response from the
internet that it cannot receive as the nm-applet has not been loaded,
and hence hangs for an undetermined amount of time...?

(If required I can post any information necessary; at the moment I don't
know what would be most helpful in resolving this problem :) )

[Bug 187858] Re: Notification Area intermittent right click error- Panel's menu displayed instead of the application's in Area.

2008-02-03 Thread Siegfried Rutherford Sheldrake
This issue is relatively new; It did not occur when I first installed
Gutsy on both the laptop and the desktop, using Nvidia and ATI cards
respectively, so I'm fairly certain it's not a graphics problem per-se.

The bug occurs from boot, no other steps are necessary to get the
problem.

*.xsession-errors included with post*

When the problem occurs, I cannot un-tray any of the programs that are
running on it. Left mouse button goes to handle to allow the entire
tray to be moved, and Right mouse button just displays the menu for the
applet not for each individual application running in the notification
area, even when the mouse cursor is fully on the icon (so it does not
select the blank space that surrounds the icons.

I'm fairly certain it must be something that has altered itself on my
configuration; it used to be intermittent but now it appears to be
occurring on every boot.

[Bug 187858] [NEW] Notification Area intermittent right click error- Panel's menu displayed instead of the application's in Area.

2008-01-31 Thread Siegfried Rutherford Sheldrake
Public bug reported:

(Occurs on Ubuntu Gutsy and Hardy Heron Alpha)

Intermittently, the gnome-panel applet for Notification Area will not
display any of the menus of the applications that are in the
notification area upon right clicking. Instead, the applet's menu is
display (the same that is displayed when the blank space around icons is
right clicked).

This behaviour is not constant, and there appears to be no relation as
to why it happens. As stated above, this also occurs on Hardy Heron
Alpha.

This is not a critical problem, but is incredibly irritating when I wish
to access Pidgin or Fusion-Icon's menu system, and requires that the
applet to be removed to access these applications again (as the tray
catches the minimised state). This issue does not occur on every boot,
however there is no way to tell if the session that is being used will
be affected- I have only seen this occur when using a default session.

If any files are required I will upload them.

[Bug 187862] [NEW] Taskbar does not allow for selection of minimised windows- only the far left one may be selected from it.

2008-01-31 Thread Siegfried Rutherford Sheldrake
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

This may be related to Bug #187858.

In the gnome-panel taskbar, the open windows may not be selected using
the mouse as expected. The far left window (but only this one) may be
selected.

Additionally, the only window in the taskbar that responds as expected
to hovering- the window bar appears depressed and when the mouse hover
is taken off, the effect is remove- is the far left. About 5/6 of the
distance across the far left window the hover behaviour ends; this may
be indicative of something getting in the way of the mouse capture
(?).

If the mouse is hovered over on the far left window, additional windows
can be selected by scrolling with the mouse wheel in the usual fashion.

All active windows behave expected ways, apart from the selection bug.
Additionally, all other windows can be selected using Ring Switcher,
Alt-tab, Shift-Switcher, etc in Compiz-fusion or Metacity.

[Bug 163578] Workspace switcher causes all windows and icons to disappear on all desks

2007-11-18 Thread Siegfried Rutherford Sheldrake
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Workspace switcher only shows 4 desks, even if the number is increased
in preferences. Compiz still picks up on the changes and alters the
change in the number of desktops (using cube plugin). However, if the
workspace switcher is used to change desktop, all icons and windows
completely disappear from the desktop, leaving only the background image
displayed.

Additionally, switching to an alternate viewport using the cube plugin
erases all the current windows from the viewswitcher (when in another
viewport) and any further windows opened are displayed as being on desk
1. On switching back to desk 1, the windows from desk 2 disappear
and the original ones for desk 1 are redisplayed.

I am not entirely sure if this is just a compiz problem or something
more fundamental.

Additionally, the workspace switcher (when on another desk, for example
desk 3) will still display the far left desktop as Current Workspace
desk 1 with no relevance to the workspace you are in. Perhaps this is
just a problem with the workspace switcher redrawing itself?
