[Bug 369012] Re: Firefox instability after security update, before restart

2009-04-29 Thread tvst
Yes, a more informative notification would be great.

But to me the larger problem is that Firefox seems to be the only
program in the default Ubuntu installation that requires a restart when
updated (and can fail horribly if not restarted). This should be fixed.

[Bug 371093] [NEW] [wishlist] Click to dismiss

2009-05-02 Thread tvst
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: notify-osd

Currently (and by design), the notifications in notify-osd cannot be
clicked on. Instead, the notification becomes translucent and the click
is propagated to the application below it.

The problem with this design decision is that before hovering over the
notification the user cannot see with any clarity what is underneath it,
making it hard to aim the mouse in the correct direction. Instead, the
user must hover over the notification, look for the widget he wants to
interact with, then click on it.

Even worse, when the user types on a text field that is beneath the
notification (like Firefox's search field), the translucency of the
notification above it adds unnecessary visual clutter, hindering
legibility.

Additionally, there currently is no way dismiss a notification pop-up --
except for waiting it out.

I propose that the notification pop-up become click-aware. Upon a left-
click the notification should be dismissed, giving the user the ability
to freely interact with anything that was previously covered by it.

[Bug 318261] Re: ATI USB remote keypresses ignored

2009-01-25 Thread tvst
I'm also having problems with my multimedia keys in Jaunty. I'm using a
Dell wireless keyboard (don't know the model, but it's the default type
with the Studio Hybrid desktops). The multimedia keys worked fine in
8.10, but after the dist-upgrade, they do not work anymore.

"xev" shows nothing, but, strangely, I can see using "top" that "hald"
and "hald-addon-input" jump to around 6% processor load (from 0%) when I
press the multimedia keys.

How do I even begin to debug this?

[Bug 323864] [NEW] gnome-volume-control does not list virtual sinks

2009-02-01 Thread tvst
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-media

The new gnome-volume-control in Jaunty does not list virtual Pulseaudio

[Bug 291863] Re: [Intrepid] Connecting to SSH server with Nautilus. Can't transfer file because "free space: 0 bytes" (gvfs bug ?)

2009-03-07 Thread tvst
I'm having the same problem. It seems that Nautilus now tries to work
around this issue by redirecting you to the "sftp://hostname"; equivalent
of the "~/.gvfs/sftp on hostname" address.

For example:
1) connect to some ssh server on Nautilus
2) type "~/.gvfs/sftp on hostname" on the location bar
3) press Ctrl+L to show the address and notice that the location bar changed to 
"sftp://hostname";

The problem is that this solution creates inconsistencies, as it breaks
your bookmarks in gvfs-unaware programs.

Try this, for example:
1) connect to some ssh server on Nautilus
2) bookmark "~/.gvfs/sftp on hostname" by dragging it to the places sidebar
3) open Firefox, click on File > Save Page As
4) notice that your new bookmark is not on the file browser!!

As a work-around, I created a symbolic link to my "~/.gvfs/sftp on
hostname" folder, and bookmarked *that* instead. But then, while this
works just fine on Firefox, it does not on Nautilus. Instead, when I try
to copy a file to the symbolic link, Nautilus acts as originally
described in this bug report, saying "There is not enough space on the
destination. Try to remove files to make space."

[Bug 350721] [NEW] [wishlist] Caps lock OSD (pop-up notification)

2009-03-28 Thread tvst
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: lock-keys-applet

It would be useful if the lock-keys applet had the capability to display
on-screen notifications of the toggle events of each lock key. The
rationale behind this is that:

1) Wireless keyboards (which often have no LEDs) are becoming increasingly 
popular
2) Screens are getting larger and larger, so the lock-keys applet icon is often 
quite far from the entry-box where the user is typing. This means that a 
relatively long distance must be travelled by the users eyes to reach the icon, 
disrupting their work. Meanwhile, the presence of an OSD message can be 
detected from the corner of the eye.

I've had the same problem for a long time now (since edgy, maybe before)
but I believe I managed to find a temporary solution. Before I go on, I
must say that NetworkManager 0.6.5 **did not** fix the issue for me.

But then I noticed that my logs always mentioned something about IPv6
near the place where the re-connects were occurring. So I decided to try
turning off IPv6 by editing /etc/modprobe.d/aliases, changing the
line...

alias net-pf-10 ipv6

...to...

alias net-pf-10 off ipv6

...then I restarted the computer.

It's been running fine for 2 days now. Given that the re-connects used
to happen every 15 minutes or so, it appears that it's all fixed now.

[Bug 158481] IPv6 causes wireless to disconnect/reconnect often

2007-10-29 Thread tvst
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

I have had the following bug since Ubuntu 6.10:

- I connect to a wireless network with Network Manager (doesn't matter whether 
it's hidden or has any type of encryption)
- After a few minutes my connection goes down (usually around 10-30 minutes)
- I can immediately see nm-applet trying to reconnect or connect to another 
network

My computer is a Thinkpad T60 with an Atheros-based internal wireless
interface (more specifically, AR5212 802.11abg NIC) using the default
MadWifi drivers that are shipped with Ubuntu.

This is a big problem when doing long downloads, or using SSH or VNC. At
times, nm-applet would even fail to reconnect to any of the available
networks, requiring me to restart the NetworkManager process by hand.

This does not happen on the same machine when running Windows, so
malfunctioning hardware and anything external to the computer are
obviously not the underlying cause. Other (Windows) computers on the
same wireless networks operate without any problems.

Also, the problem survived through clean installs of Ubuntu 7.04 and,
later, 7.10. So this is not an issue related to my specific settings.

After a while looking for a solution for almost 1 year, I finally found
a temporary fix: to disable IPv6. I'm not sure *why* this works, but the
fact is that it *does*. I've been happily using my WiFi now for 20 days
without a single reconnect. This is how I disabled it:

- edit /etc/modprobe.d/aliases
- change line "alias net-pf-10 ipv6" to "alias net-pf-10 off ipv6"
- reboot

I explained these steps on another bug report
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/64173),
but since I'm not sure whether the original poster's bug was related to
mine, I figured it would be better to open a brand new one.

[Bug 94148] Re: atheros wifi card drop connection and low signal

2007-09-27 Thread tvst
The low signal reading is actually a known problem with the madwifi
drivers (used for the atheros chips). Madwifi reports their signal can
go all the way up to 94, when in reality it goes up to (something like)
60. This is "fixed" in the gnome-network-preferences tool, which adjusts
the readings from madwifi. The problem is that network-manager does not
incorporate the same "fix", so the result is that you cannot trust its
signal strength indicator.

[Bug 3581] Re: New ext3 partitions should not have max-mount count

2007-08-11 Thread tvst
In my opinion, the best solution is to make fsck run on *shutdown*
rather than on boot-up. The rationale behind this is that people usually
turn on their computers to do something with it. At those times, people
want their computers to boot up as fast as possible.

Conversely, people usually do not shut down their computer to do
something to it. The exceptions to this are when one is going to replace
some hardware, or move a laptop around. Other than that, shutdown speed
is not as important.

Thus I believe fsck should run on shutdown by default, and there should
be an option to change its behavior if the user would prefer that.

that nm received a "signal 15". I'm not sure what that is, but I had
been reading an article online for the previous 5 minutes, so it was not
any user interaction that caused signal 15 to be emitted.

[Bug 188790] Re: Can't browse sftp

2008-08-03 Thread tvst
I have this problem with GVFS 0.2.5-0ubuntu2 in both gvfs-mount and
Nautilus. It seems to be due to an offending RSA key, as shown below:

When I logged in through the terminal with SSH, I got the following
message:

Warning: the RSA host key for 'X' differs from the key for the IP 
address 'X'
Offending key for IP in /home/X/.ssh/known_hosts:8
Matching host key in /home/X/.ssh/known_hosts:25
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
(everything went fine after this)

To make GVFS work all I had to do was delete line 8 in my known_hosts
file.

In this situation, Nautilus/gvfs-mount should pop-up/print-out a message
to the user, similar to what SSH does.

only applies to "connecting to the server for the first time". That is,

2007-06-06 Thread tvst
I've been getting the same error here after a clean feisty install.
Well, the install was not *entirely* clean since I kept my home
partition with all its hidden configuration files. Anyways, when I press
the OK button on the "Your session lasted (...)" dialog box, X restarts
and gives me the gdm login screen again. If I do not click OK (that is,
if I leave the warning on the screen), I can use the computer normally.
The only thing I cannot do is run gnome-session-properties, but that's
understandable because gnome-session is probably not running.

What is really strange is that I don't have a ~/.gnome2/session file on
my system. Could this be the source of the problem? Is there any way to
manually make a sessions file?

Ok, this is solved for me, but I'm not sure what did it. Browsing the

mentioned it could be the permissions/user/group on the .ICEauthority
file, but I don't think that was the case for me. I even deleted the
file (it comes back, so that's ok) but the problem persisted. So I
created a new user and saw that everything worked for him. I, then,
compared the  everything I could (with 'ls -al') between my user and the
new one and couldn't find any differences. So I moved all my hidden
folders into a temporary folder with 'mkdir ~/hidden && mv .* ~/hidden'.
Then I logged in and it was all good. Next I slowly started moving
things back from the hidden folder. I'll let you know which folder was
the problematic one, but if it's .gconf, i'm not descending into its
subfolders!

2007-06-09 Thread tvst
Well, here's how it turned out: due to a few other issues I was having I
just decided to rename my home folder and reinstall feisty. After that,
I moved all my files back and most of my hidden config directories. I
*did not* move .gconf, .gnome, and .gnome2 back. At that point,
everything worked perfectly. Then I started apt-getting my favorite
software. At some point, yesterday, after I thought the problem was
finally dealt with, I got the same "Your session lasted (...)" message.
It was happening every time I logged in after that. Since I had just
installed the mail notification sys-tray applet, I decided to go into
its preferences and unselect "autostart mail notification upon session
opening". It worked. The problem went away. Every time I re-select that
option, the problem comes back. This is very strange because the
.xsession-errors file does not mention that program at all. In any case,
I just thought someone else may want to know that, at least in my case,
it seems the mail notification applet is the culprit.

[Bug 121793] "lock screen" option doesn't work (always locks)

2007-06-22 Thread tvst
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

Steps to reproduce: 
1) go to "system > preferences > screensaver"
2) uncheck "lock screen when screensaver is active"
3) close
Then, when the screensaver goes on and you move the mouse or press a key to 
resume your session, you are prompted for your password even though the 
checkbox in step (2) is unchecked.

I solved this by changing the gnome-power-manager options like so: I
opened gconf-editor, navigated to "/apps/gnome-power-manager/" then
unchecked "lock_on_blank_screen" and checked
"lock_use_screensaver_settings". so now the screen locking follows the
behavior set in the screensaver gui as it should have in the first
place.

This is a fairly small bug, and the solution is to make sure
"lock_use_screensaver_settings" is checked by default in Gnome.

[Bug 121793] Re: "lock screen" option doesn't work (always locks)

2007-06-23 Thread tvst
Just an fyi:
I looked it up online before posting, and i have to agree with you that it's 
not a common error. I couldn't find anything on google.

It doesn't matter which screensaver i use, though. It happens with all
of then. That is, until i fixed the gconf entry as stated earlier.

It's strange, thought, because it happened on this computer (a Lenovo
T60 laptop) under a clean ubuntu 6.10 installation and a clean 7.07 as
well.Iit also happened on my old Dell Inspiron 8100 laptop under 6.10 (I
haven't tried with 7.04).

I haven't seen it happen on other ubuntu installs. I just thought I'd
post it here so the Ubuntu maintainers would make sure the default is
not "lock_use_screensaver_settings = false".

[Bug 190754] Re: Over-optimistic buffering in PulseAudio causes underruns (audible stuttering, pops)

2008-05-25 Thread tvst
"As far as I know, dmix is setup by default in ALSA when no asound.conf file is 
present."
Conn: that's what I thought too (that's what the ALSA wiki says). But my 
experience is that I get not software mixing unless I specifically add dmix to 
asound.conf , and I tried this on 3 completely different computers (where only 
one had more than one sound card) and at least 3 different Ubuntu versions. 
That's one of the reasons PulseAudio is so interesting to me. It makes software 
mixing easier to set up, plus adds individual volume control for each stream, 
and lets me easily select the default soundcard. 

I will try the proposed kernel and will report back.

2008-05-25 Thread tvst
I just booted with the 2.6.24-17 kernel, and there's no audio at all. In
fact, there's no /proc/asound, so i can't even list the contents of
/proc/asound/cards. Similarly, the Device selectbox in
System>Preferences>Sound is empty.

Also, I just went to my other laptop (also clean hardy install, but
different machine) using the default generic kernel and saw that there's
no stuttering/pops with the internal audio card no matter what I do. The
other machine is a Thinkpad T60, Core 2 duo, ATI mobility radeon x1300
(fglrx), 1.5GB RAM. I'll try connecting it to the USB card and see what
happens.

[Bug 236999] [NEW] On suspend/resume, USB soundcard loses "default" status

2008-06-03 Thread tvst
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

Steps to reproduce:
1) Open PulseAudio Volume Control, set USB soundcard as default
2) Suspend (you can either close all programs or leave them on, doesn't really 
matter which)
3) Resume from suspend mode
4) Open PulseAudio Volume Control, check that USB soundcard is no longer the 
default one (the internal card is)

Aditionally, the USB card also loses its "Default mixer track" status
that was set in Gnome's System > Preferences > Sound menu.

System info:
Clean install of Ubuntu 8.04

2008-05-24 Thread tvst
I get the same behavior as just about everyone else here, but I do not
thing it's a PulseAudio issue. At first it did seem it was Pulse-
related, since thinks worked smoothly when I killed the PulseAudio
daemon and used ALSA instead. That is, I could play music, Alt-Tab,
switch desktops, listen to audio from Flash sites, all at the same time.

However, when I listen to music with Rhythmbox and play a movie in Totem
(even if the movie is paused) I can produce glitches on the music by
Alt-tabbing, switching desktops, etc.

I'm on a Pentium M 1.73MHz, with 1GB RAM, Mobility Radeon x300 (fglrx),
2 soundcards (one internal, one USB) and no compiz.

Since I never use the internal card, I don't know if the glitches happen
only on the USB one. I will test that and report back.

[Bug 269656] Re: AN IRRELEVANT LICENSE IS PRESENTED TO YOU FREE-OF-CHARGE ON STARTUP

2008-09-14 Thread tvst
Here are the options as I see them:

1) If you don't have a problem with EULAs in general:
1.1) Show the EULA as a popup window (what is currently implemented)
1.2) Show the EULA during the Ubuntu installation
1.3) Show a better popup explaining the EULA in plain English, and with a 
button to install an alternative browser
1.4) Show the EULA in a tab or in the default home page.

2) If you do oppose EULAs the only option is to have another browser installed 
by default. This browser could be:
2.1) Epiphany
2.2) IceWeasel
2.3) abrowser
2.4) An Ubuntu-branded version of Firefox

Option 1.1 is the worst possible choice in my opinion.

To reach a consensus, Canonical and the Ubuntu community have to decide
whether or not EULAs are acceptable. If they are, then Options 1.2 or
1.4 present a minimal amount of annoyance to the end user.

If EULAs are deemed unacceptable, then I vote for Option 2.4: the Ubuntu
brand is a strong one and the names "IceWeasel" or "abrowser" don't
particularly inspire much confidence. And the default home page can
contain a panel explaining that the Ubuntu browser is a rebranded
Firefox.

[Bug 188790] Re: Can't browse sftp

2008-08-03 Thread tvst
I have this problem with GVFS 0.2.5-0ubuntu2 in both gvfs-mount and
Nautilus. It seems to be due to an offending RSA key, as shown below:

When I logged in through the terminal with SSH, I got the following
message:

Warning: the RSA host key for 'X' differs from the key for the IP 
address 'X'
Offending key for IP in /home/X/.ssh/known_hosts:8
Matching host key in /home/X/.ssh/known_hosts:25
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
(everything went fine after this)

To make GVFS work all I had to do was delete line 8 in my known_hosts
file.

In this situation, Nautilus/gvfs-mount should pop-up/print-out a message
to the user, similar to what SSH does.

I believe the other fix mentioned by Oliver Gerlich

only applies to "connecting to the server for the first time". That is,
it just shows a "Add fingerprint to database?"-type dialog. That's why
it doesn't solve the "offending key" issues.

drivers (used for the atheros chips). Madwifi reports their signal can
go all the way up to 94, when in reality it goes up to (something like)
60. This is "fixed" in the gnome-network-preferences tool, which adjusts
the readings from madwifi. The problem is that network-manager does not
incorporate the same "fix", so the result is that you cannot trust its
signal strength indicator.

[Bug 158481] Re: IPv6 causes wireless to disconnect/reconnect often

2007-12-05 Thread tvst
After 3 days of use, I finally got 1 (just one!!) crash. Since it's not
happening nearly as often as it used to, I'm not sure if its the same
issue.

The relevant part of the syslog is attached (i deleted lines upon lines
of "-- MARK --" from the beginning of the file). At 11:54 it appears
that nm received a "signal 15". I'm not sure what that is, but I had
been reading an article online for the previous 5 minutes, so it was not
any user interaction that caused signal 15 to be emitted.

[Bug 158481] IPv6 causes wireless to disconnect/reconnect often

2007-10-29 Thread tvst
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

I have had the following bug since Ubuntu 6.10:

- I connect to a wireless network with Network Manager (doesn't matter whether 
it's hidden or has any type of encryption)
- After a few minutes my connection goes down (usually around 10-30 minutes)
- I can immediately see nm-applet trying to reconnect or connect to another 
network

My computer is a Thinkpad T60 with an Atheros-based internal wireless
interface (more specifically, AR5212 802.11abg NIC) using the default
MadWifi drivers that are shipped with Ubuntu.

This is a big problem when doing long downloads, or using SSH or VNC. At
times, nm-applet would even fail to reconnect to any of the available
networks, requiring me to restart the NetworkManager process by hand.

This does not happen on the same machine when running Windows, so
malfunctioning hardware and anything external to the computer are
obviously not the underlying cause. Other (Windows) computers on the
same wireless networks operate without any problems.

Also, the problem survived through clean installs of Ubuntu 7.04 and,
later, 7.10. So this is not an issue related to my specific settings.

After a while looking for a solution for almost 1 year, I finally found
a temporary fix: to disable IPv6. I'm not sure *why* this works, but the
fact is that it *does*. I've been happily using my WiFi now for 20 days
without a single reconnect. This is how I disabled it:

- edit /etc/modprobe.d/aliases
- change line "alias net-pf-10 ipv6" to "alias net-pf-10 off ipv6"
- reboot

I explained these steps on another bug report
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/64173),
but since I'm not sure whether the original poster's bug was related to
mine, I figured it would be better to open a brand new one.

[Bug 106934] Re: compiling the ov511 driver fails

2007-08-02 Thread tvst
i tried to run:

cd /usr/src/modules/ov511
sudo sed 's_linux/config.h_linux/autoconf.h_' *.c
sudo sed 's_linux/config.h_linux/autoconf.h_' *.h


but, then, module-assistant still gives me an error about there not being a 
'config.h'!! and the source files are restored to their original form, with 
"config.h" instead of "autoconf.h". 

what's going on? is this a problem with module-assistant? or should i
modify the source files in some other folder?
