[Bug 682788] Re: Global menu is not ergonomical on large screens

2011-12-10 Thread Graham Hawkins
@Romano
Yes - Unity does indeed work quite nicely with focus-follows-mouse  and 
auto-raise. I've also removed the packages that implement global menu, and 
turned off screen-edge window maximisation.   And I'm reasonably happy with the 
result.

It's just that I'd have preferred to have a GUI (or maybe a file) to
configure these items in one rather than having to jump through hoops to
do it...

[Bug 682788] Re: Global menu is not ergonomical on large screens

2011-12-10 Thread Graham Hawkins
"Click to focus is the only supported focus model in 11.10 (and older
releases?). In the same sense as having a global menu bar isn't an
option anymore, click to focus isn't an option either."

I've use focus follows mouse and autoraise for about 20 years, and I'll
go to some lengths to configure my system so as to be able continue to
use it...

Global menus don't sit well with such a configuration - so to be able to
configure them off (or limited) would be good. And I also quite Manny's
suggestion of #106.

More generally (and probably off topic) I somewhat lament the trend
towards non-configurability in today's desktops. They look pretty, and
work to the design team's vision of how a desktop should be, but not all
users share that vision in all respects. I suppose I should write my own
to suit myself, but really, all I want to do is edit a config file to
make the desktop comfortable for me, and get on with my work..

2011-05-29 Thread Graham Hawkins
@varun kumar, for me there are two ways to suspend:

(1) Although the screen is garbled, the dialogue asking for your
password is there - just type it and hit return. On my screen, the left
hand 25% is clean, so I can find the power down options and suspend.

(2) Alternatively, and much more simply, I can just close the
screen/lid. With the correct power management options, the PC will
suspend.

[Bug 369005] Re: ath5k : disconnection / slow network - "unsupported jumbo" error

2010-06-01 Thread Graham Hawkins
Applied  Jussi Kivilinna's patch (see #20 above) to compat-
wireless-2010-05-29, and compiled against 2.6.32-22-generic. Had to
change calls to pci_pcie_cap() in the patch to calls to
pci_find_capability():

From:
pos = pci_pcie_cap(pdev);

pos = pci_find_capability(pdev, PCI_CAP_ID_EXP);


 (I think the newer API is not in 2.6.32-22).

The connection drop due to large transfers is gone - I moved ~1GB of
files up & down without failure.

I did notice that the new driver seems slow to connect from cold boot.
Might be something I did... not sure.

Don't see jumbo packet warnings with the ath5k build from the bleeding edge 
tarball.
Probably this is why:

[Bug 369005] Re: ath5k : disconnection / slow network - "unsupported jumbo" error

2010-05-31 Thread Graham Hawkins
Continued from #17 above.
Sorry, should have said this is Ubuntu NBR 10.04. 
Standard & linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32.22 ath5k drivers (from 10.04 
repository) show loss of connection, so I tried the bleeding edge versions 
built from source.
BTW, I'm not totally convinced the jumbo packet reports are linked. If I 
throttle the wireless rate on my AP right down to 1Mbps, I get much more data 
through before the disconnection (but _very_ slowly!). I still see jumbo packet 
reports though, and scattered throughout the transfer (this is with the 
repository drivers, didn't try this with bleeding edge one).

[Bug 210303] Re: [hardy] kaffeine loops on "Codec package is already installed"

2008-04-22 Thread Graham Hawkins
On my Hardy upgrade I also got the 'Kaffiene installer loop'.

But I also got another dialogue:

"xine Message - Kaffiene Player
The source can't be read.
Maybe you don't have enough rights for this, or source doesn't contain data 
(e.g: no disc in drive). (/dev/dvd)"

I found that the link for /dev/dvd did not exist, but the 'xine Engine
Parameters' pointed to it.

A link '/dev/dvd1' did exist, and pointing the 'xine Engine
Parameters->media->Beginner Options->dvd.device' at it fixed both
symptoms - 'the codec install loop' & 'the can't be read'.

Beware, you seem to need to click 'Apply' before leaving the xine Engine
dialogue, otherwise the changes made are lost.

[Bug 84717] Re: SRU: updates necessary for Kubuntu Upgrade Tool in Edgy

2007-04-06 Thread Graham Hawkins
Worked fine on my home installation. Only mild complaint is that after
having upgraded to 7.04, Adept Updater always says 'A new version of
Kubuntu is available! Click next...' after installing any patches. the
Next button is greyed out but it is a bit misleading.

Did not work at all on my office installation. I suspect that this is
because it is behind a proxy.  I have set a http_proxy environment
variable, and have proxy lines in apt.conf. Normally Adept works fine.
But after following the instructions
(https://wiki.kubuntu.org/KubuntuDistUpgrade) the box offering the
upgrade to 7.04 did not appear.
