[Bug 380377] Re: compiz-setting-manager key binding revert to QWERTY
I use the dvorak keyboard layout, and this affects me too. I've found a workaround: when your desktop is "up and running" and the gnome start-up process has completed, restart compiz (from a terminal, "compiz --replace &"). IINM (but I'm only ~60% certain), compiz doesn't get the keyboard layout wrong every time it starts up. My first-guess interpretation is that there's a race condition somewhere. My idea for a fix, if possible, is for compiz to listen for keyboard remapping notifications and then un- and re-grabbing keys when that happens. (FWIW, ISTR there being this kind of notify-mask-flag in xorg/xlib). This should be relatively easy to implement. -- compiz-setting-manager key binding revert to QWERTY https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380377 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 483108] [NEW] ccsm: uninformative plugin keybinding conflict dialog
Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: compizconfig-settings-manager
In ccsm, if two compiz plugins have conflicting keybindings, you are
faced with the following dialog:
"Some bindings of Plugin Static Application Switcher conflict with
other plugins. Do you want to resolve these conflicts?
[Do the right thing: nothing] [Do something arbitrary and unknown to my
configuration which I haven't backed up]"
(I have paraphrased the text on the buttons). Which bindings? Which
other plugins? I think that would be a useful thing to know, so I think
the dialog should contain that information.
Also, yes, I want the conflicts resolved, but I don't trust a button
that essentially says "fix things" to know which resolution I like. It
would be really great if I a bit of text was added so I'd have more than
a snowball's chance in hell of knowing what "resolve these conflicts"
will do---in operational terms! (i.e. what can I observe having changed
when ccsm is done resolving conflicts?)
Also, there are two spaces in "Some bindings [...]", and it might sound
more natural to say "[...] bindings of the ${NAME} plugin" than "of
plugin ${NAME}".

[Bug 333843] Re: vim should depend on libgail18
Sorry for being a paid in the ass, but I don't get it. I install the `vim' (which, judging from the `apt-cache show vim' description is the console version). Then I get the same error message as Steffen, about libgailutil.so.18, and vim doesn't run. And that's not a bug?

Shouldn't installing vim then prompt the user to choose a different alternative, suggesting the one that was just installed? (or at least one that works... ?) Should I have manually done one of the installation steps (updating the alternatives)? Of all the alternative-ized programs I've run, I've only come across this problem (of installing it, then it not working) with vim; is vim a special case? Or did I somehow manually remove libgail without removing vim-gnome? Or was this an issue in a version of vim-gnome different from the one Colin was examining? Or...? As far as I can tell, I've installed vim, observed that running '$ vim' doesn't work, and been told that it's not a bug for newly installed programs to not work.

[Bug 341083] [NEW] window drag: should snap to intended (!nearest) corner
Public bug reported: In metacity you can snap-drag by holding down alt, click-dragging a window and then pressing shift. Consider the following scenario: - There are three windows, A, B and C. None overlap, A is slightly to the left of B, C slightly above B. - If you alt-drag B just enough to pick it up, then move it a little, it's going to snap such that it's edge-to-edge with both A and C. If you want to drag B to the "opposite" corner, the one furthest away from the intersection of the bottom line of C and right line of A, you're going to be dragging the window away from the place it snaps to. The window snapping away from where you're dragging it is very counter- intuitive.

[Bug 324939] [NEW] Importing vpnc configuration: uninformative error msg
Public bug reported:
Steps to replicate:
- Try to import a vpnc configuration file that nm doesn't like (edit
connections -> vpn -> import)
- Face the following error message:
"The file 'invalid-1233678422.conf' could not be read or does not
contain recognized VPN connection information
Error: does not look like a Cisco Compatible VPN (vpnc) VPN connection."
The error message should state *clearly* whether the problems were the
readability of the file or its contents. No "It's A or B. It's A:
[explanation]".
Either say:
"The file '%s' could not be read: you don't have permission to read the
file. Would you like to make the file readable and retry importing it?
(You can give yourself permission to read the file by [suitable
description of actionable steps] at a later time if you don't do it
now.)
[No] [Yes]"
Or say:
"Error: does not look like a Cisco Compatible VPN (vpnc) VPN connection.
At line %d, column %d of $FILENAME, I saw %s but expected $TOKENTYPE,
for example $EXAMPLE (replace $EXAMPLE with your own username)."
Note that in the first case, the following are clear:
- at which step the operation failed
- why it failed at that step
- what can be done about it
and the user is given the option of "yeah, do the right thing".
If the user can't change the permissions of the file, the user should be
told this, and if the user can become root or $OWNER, the user should be
given the option to do that (and the explanation of how to do that
manually).
In the second case, my idea would be a little more informative than
"there's an error in your file". It'll let the user know that
everything up to line %d is fine, and if the user's a little clever,
he/she might put the problematic line last to see whether the lines
after the bad one are also OK. [Hmm, I think that gives a good problem
isolation algorithm when each line is correct independent of the ret...]
In fact, screw what I just said: nm should try out that strategy, see
what fails and then tell the user "lines %d, %d and %d look problematic.
On line {first %d}, {roughly same error message as above}."
By the way, my invalid-$(date +%s).conf file is a kilobyte offa'
/dev/random, FWIW.
I have a file that works fine with vpnc-connect, and I get the same
error message when importing it. It contains five lines, IPSec
{gateway, ID, secret} and Xauth {username, password}. The `secret'
field contains a % and both `secret' and `password' contains
is{upper,lower,digit} characters.
Make the computer do the user's work, please. At least as much as
possible. And tell the user why you can't and what the user can do when
it's appropriate to give up.

[Bug 304209] [NEW] FTBFS: missing package "treecc" and source files {eval, ordering}.tc
Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: dicelab
Steps to reproduce:
apt-get source dicelab
cd dicelab-0.6/
./configure
make
make clean
make
The last make errors out. Do "cd ..; tar zxf dice*orig*; cd
dicelab-0.6; make" and it builds again.
If I grab eval.tc and ordering.tc from http://www.semistable.com/dicelab
/dicelab-win32-0.6.zip, and install treecc on my debian box, the package
builds correctly.

[Bug 268412] Re: Evince - keyboard nav with arrow keys and pgup/-dn is counterintuitive
The bug is no longer. I experienced it in a pdf file generated by lilypond; it spanned two pages. It's a bunch of notes for a song that I don't hold the copyrights to. I can probably get permission to give you a copy (Poke me if you want the pdf from me), but I don't see the point. With almost the same pdf (c- and mtime being september 12th) and most definitely the same version of lilypond, but a newer evince, I see sane behavior from evince. I've generated a more minimal (and more publishable) example (1024 times the 440 Hz a-note) with intrepid-rc's lilypond, and I still see sane behavior from evince. Again, poke me. As far as I can tell, there was a bug at some point in time, but not any longer.

[Bug 239999] Re: nm should support easy bonding
> would this allow me to use [...] 1 interface for firefox and 1 interface for > torrents? The point of bonding is to make two interfaces look like one, so you'd be trying to shovel water uphill if you want to partially break the illusion. I suppose you could write an iptables module that lets you create rules that only apply to local packets originating from particular programs, and create an iptables target that says "despite my bonding policy, route these packets like this: [...]". But that's non-trivial. Also, what happens when one of your two bonded interfaces becomes unavailable? It sounds like you're trying to solve a traffic prioritization problem: you want firefox to not be bogged down by your torrent running in the background. There are solutions for that, but bonding isn't it. Splitting the traffic onto two interfaces is probably also not a solution, unless they have distinct IPs and your ISP allocates bandwidth per IP address. In most scenarios, there's a lot of bandwidth you don't get to use by keeping one interface free for firefox. I think it'd be better to configure some traffic prioritization if your current configuration is suboptimal; something like giving almost all your pipe to interactive traffic over bulk transfer (one can use iptables and the LOG target to see which apps are good at setting QOS flags), and also delaying bulk traffic in anticipation of interactive traffic. And you could put a $(($BANDWIDTH - $EPSILON)) cap on your bittorrent transfer; that should give firefox a small window to send out the first packets through. I'm sure google plus #ubuntu plus ubuntuforums will be happy to help you and/or go into the deep details of bonding if you want to :) > How would I be able to use 2 wireless interfaces at the same time? Well, if it ever comes to balancing+availability, you could have a twice-as-fast connection to your access point. Your internet connection is probably the most important bottleneck, so you won't get a faster internet connection, but you may be able to copy files between two local machines faster. How it's going to be presented to the user? Click some friendly "please bond" button somewhere in gnome-control-center. Then do what you've always done. -- nm should support easy bonding https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/23 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 268412] [NEW] Evince - keyboard nav with arrow keys and pgup/-dn is counterintuitive
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evince The keyboard navigation in evince is very counterintuitive. When you press uparrow and downarrow, evince moves by one page. When you press page down and page up, evince scrolls down/up the current page (or jumps to the top of the next/previous page). I propose instead the following behavior: When you press page up and page down, evince jumps to the top of the next/previous page. When you press uparrow and downarrow, evince scrolls a little (a lot less than page up and page down currently). Also, note that when you cross a page boundary from cur to prev with a small movement (i.e. the arrow keys in my suggestion, or page up and page down as it is currently), it's more sensible to put the user near the bottom of the newly entered page, not the top---i.e. next to where they came from instead of far away.

[Bug 239999] [NEW] nm should support easy bonding
Public bug reported: -- The feature: Network Manager should assist the user as much as reasonably possible in setting up a bond0 interface. -- Motivating scenario: I'm watching a movie, accessed via sshfs from my desktop box over the wired interface. I get hungry, so I decide to move my laptop to my kitchen and continue watching the movie while cooking. The sshfs connection should seamlessly stay alive, such that I don't have to restart mplayer. -- A sketch of a solution: Look at the IP address and netmask of available interfaces. If two interfaces lie within the same network, ask the user whether to try enabling bonding. If yes, modprobe bonding mode=1, set up bond0, enslave eth0 and eth1 (say) with the fastest being the primary. Let the user say "always bond", "always bond for $ESSID", "never bond", "never bond for $ESSID" after testing whether it works. -- Taking this one step further: Support other values of mode= for the bonds. Don't do this only for wired+wifi, but any number of wired and wifi interfaces.

Unless there's a compelling reason not to, I think SCIM Setup should look (and behave!) more like other configuration dialogs.
