[Bug 792636] Re: Power section no longer allows configuration of when the lid is closed action in Oneiric

2011-09-06 Thread Tom Adams
 Is there any benefit to NOT allowing users to configure this behaviour
in the system configuration tools that ship with Ubuntu?

Here's a blog post about the issue from the point of view of a GNOME 3
developer: http://afaikblog.wordpress.com/2011/02/03/on-laptop-lids-and-
power-settings/

Their reasoning for this change is: The vast majority of people do not
like lots of settings

While I can understand that philosophy, the fact is that there ARE lots
of settings available and GNOME 3 is just making them harder to get to.

2011-06-04 Thread Tom Adams
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

The keyboard settings used to have a long list of configuration options
including ctrl key position. This has disappeared now (and so has the
gconf option apparently since what used to be my ctrl key is once again
a caps lock key).

Ignore what I said about the gconf option, gnome-settings-daemon wasn't
running or something. But the configuration options still aren't there
(including the option to change the keyboard layout, worryingly).

I've found a workaround for those who might need it:

Edit /etc/UPower/UPower.conf and change the line at the bottom
IgnoreLid=false to IgnoreLid=true.

[Bug 792636] [NEW] Power section no longer allows configuration of when the lid is closed action in Oneiric

2011-06-03 Thread Tom Adams
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

In Natty I was able to configure what happens when the laptop lid was
closed. Now that option doesn't exist in the power settings.

I tried to set the following gconf options to nothing, but they had no 
immediate effect:
/apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_battery
/apps/gnome-power-manager/buttons/lid_ac

It would be helpful to know a temporary workaround as I close my laptop
all the time but I never suspend/hibernate it.

[Bug 790925] [NEW] Empathy won't reconnect an account

2011-05-31 Thread Tom Adams
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

Every day, I find my Gmail account sitting in a red bar at the top of
the Contact List window saying Network error. It's very annoying if I
forget to check Empathy - then people can't get in touch with me for
hours.

I'm suggesting that whenever an account is disconnected, that it
automatically reconnect.

Binary package hint: empathy

When a contact uses characters outside the ASCII range, they appear as
their escaped XML entities throughout most parts of the UI, including:
the contact list, the title bar, the tab. But inside the chat window, it
appears as the intended characters.

In this case, the user's name is 大神, and the corresponding XML
character entity references are #x5927;#x795E;.

[Bug 767941] [NEW] Menubar-related options in GNOME Terminal make no sense with a global menu bar

2011-04-20 Thread Tom Adams
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

There are two options in GNOME Terminal that make no sense in Unity with the 
global menu bar:
- View  Show Menubar
- Edit  Profile Preferences  General  Show menubar by default

Whether the menubar is shown or not, it is visible at the top of the
screen when hovered over like any other globalised menu. When the
menubar is shown you can hold Alt and press V to get to the View menu
for instance, but when it is hidden the keystroke goes to the
terminal. But you can always move your mouse up there and click on it.

I can think of two solutions:
- One is to hide those two options when there's a global menu present (can the 
user still access the menu with the keyboard, I wonder?)
- The other is to just change the wording of the questions when there's a 
global menu available

[Bug 764161] [NEW] Mahjongg has two tilesets labelled postmodern

2011-04-17 Thread Tom Adams
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-games

In Ubuntu, Mahjongg has two tilesets labelled postmodern which look
identical except one has the GNOME logo on some tiles, and the other has
the Ubuntu logo.

Either the names should be changed to something like postmodern
(GNOME), postmodern (Ubuntu), or the GNOME tile set should be removed
from the Ubuntu package.

Thanks for reporting this.

Could you take a screenshot the next time you come across this bug?

Depending on the tile theme you use, the flower and season tiles may
look similar to each other, or very different. This may be what's
happening.

[Bug 762399] [NEW] Blinking cursor can be deactivated but only through gconf

2011-04-15 Thread Tom Adams
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

The blinking of the cursor in GNOME Terminal can be deactivated using
gconf (that was fixed in #188732). Though there is still the issue of
there being no UI to do this in the profile preferences, which was also
mentioned in that bug, but the bug was Fix Released, and I figured
this needed its own report.

[Bug 733882] [NEW] Several packages are named exactly the same

2011-03-12 Thread Tom Adams
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

This is an off-shoot of bug #733669.

When using unity-place-applications, unlike the Ubuntu Software Center,
you can search for Terminal and there are 3 applications all called
Terminal with no way to differentiate apart from the icons. In version
0.2.38, it also shows uninstalled applications from the Software Center
making the problem worse.

The proposal is that all applications named exactly the same (gnome-
terminal, vala-terminal, and terminal.app) should have their names
changed. Or at least the two Terminals that aren't installed by default.
