 Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
 Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been
 any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue
 for you? Can you try with development version of Ubuntu, Hardy Heron?

 Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry, I can't test it. For a variety of reasons, I've gone back to 
Windows.

I can tell you that I think the bottleneck is in the encoding.

 Hope the problem gets fixed as I don't want to upgrade until I know that
 I won't be faced by that again.

   

Don't count on it. This is the most ignored bug. It gets reported, 
confirmed, ignored, allowed to expire, dropped and then re-reported.

This is giving Ubuntu a bad name.


Personally, I think at this point it needs to get assigned to someone 
who will actually fix it. (Fire the dude who's been ignoring it) It's 
such a simple fix, too. Redesign the forms so they fit on 800x600.

[Bug 148424] package j2sdk1.4-doc None failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

2007-10-03 Thread paulmd
Public bug reported:

The documentation package didn't actually include the documentation,
and the installer said so. It directed me to Sun's website to download
and install it myself. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of having a
package manager in the first place?

[Bug 129383] Re: Slow CD ripping (Sound Juicer)

2007-08-05 Thread paulmd
Yet more Info:

Processor speed seems to be the bottleneck with Ripping. Some experiments. All 
Files encoded as OGG.
(forgive me if columns don't line up correct due to different fonts, i have put 
commas between fields, it may help)

Processor   RAM Ripping Speed 
Celeron 533mhz, 384mb,   1.5x   *
Celeron M 700 mhz,256mb,   2.5x
P3 933mhz, 384mb,   2.7x   *
Sempron 3800+, 2048MB, 11.5x


*These 2 are in fact the same machine, processor changed between tests

[Bug 129383] Re: Slow CD ripping (Sound Juicer)

2007-08-01 Thread paulmd
Some more notes: Ripping in MP3/OGG is much slower than WAV or FLAC (2x
slower).

wav and flac rip at 2.8x vs ogg at 1.5x, Perhaps the part of the problem
is in  the encoding phase.

Note that ripping with k3b does no better (a common dependency?).  But
3x on a machine that can do 20x is a problem.

[Bug 129383] Slow CD ripping (Sound Juicer)

2007-07-31 Thread paulmd
Public bug reported:

CD ripping is very much subpar with Sound Juicer. I have tried on 3
different machines:

IBM NetVista All in one, Celeron 800mhz, 384MB RAM, 20Xcd. Actual Ripping 
speed:  ~1.5x
Dell Latitude C600, 256MB RAM, 24X CD, Actual ripping speed: ~3.0x

Gigabyte GA-k8vm800m, Sempron 3400+, 2GB RAM, 16XDVD (52x CD), actual
ripping speed: ~11.5X


All of these machines are capable of much faster CD Ripping (and have done so 
under various versions of Windows).  There are no hardware problems with any of 
them.

All machines have the latest BIOS available.

[Bug 129386] Desktop effects strange behavior (Google Earth, VLC)

2007-07-31 Thread paulmd
Public bug reported:

It seems that Compiz and Google earth are not the best of friends. With
Compiz enabled, googleearth doesn't reliably display the links such as
Wikipedia and Panoramio.

Also not the best of friends with VLC. It wouldn't reliably play dvds
until compiz disabled.

Also, I can confirm bug #108443

Sempron 3400+, Radeon 9200 (128MB), 2GB Ram, Ubuntu 7.04, all updates as
of 7/31/07.

Actually, Pretty much everything that involves a video of some kind
produces unreliable video. with the Desktop Effects enabled.
