I need to reply to my own email to add info.  I attempted to re-start
a service and received the same error - so it has nothing to do with
networking but rather authentication.  You had already assumed that,
I am simply proving it.

System/Administration/Services
click on "Unlock" and receive the following message
Could not authenticate
An unexpected error has occurred.

Tonight's upgrade included several PolicyKit pkgs and I did verify
that I am running network-manager-gnome 0.6.5-0ubuntu11 and
network-manager 0.6.5-0ubuntu17.

Now clicking on "Unlock" yields a window stating:
"Could not authenticate  An unexpected error has occurred."
This occurs by simply clicking on the "Unlock" button - not given
the chance to enter a password.

ok, now I get it .. since these are based on not being false, they are 
set.  and "sudo lshal | grep quirk" shows that they are not set to 
false.  So, I just have to rearrange the order of these lines like so, 
and it works:

[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_S3_BIOS" = "true" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-s3-bios"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_S3_MODE" = "true" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-s3-mode"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_DPMS_SUSPEND" = "true" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-dpms-suspend"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_DPMS_ON" != "false" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-dpms-on"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_RESET_BRIGHTNESS" != "false" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-reset-brightness"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_VGA_MODE_3" != "false" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-vga-mode3"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_VBE_POST" != "false" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-vbe-post"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_VBEMODE_RESTORE" != "false" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-vbemode-restore"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_VBESTATE_RESTORE" != "false" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-vbestate-restore"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_RADEON_OFF" = "true" ] && 
QUIRKS="$QUIRKS --quirk-radeon-off"
[ "$HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_NONE" = "true" ] && QUIRKS="$QUIRKS

Now this is fine for my dell with nvidia driver, but I hope it works for 
others too.

nice.  so i guess this ocnfirms that the gnome power button uses
pm-utils, but i wish i could see how the hal script is called.

i don't see either.  i tried this:
$ dpkg -L hal | xargs grep "HAL_PROP_POWER_MANAGEMENT_QUIRK_S3_BIOS"
but didn't get any helpful hits.  

that shouldn't matter though -- presumably the relevant variables *are*
set, so the quirk gets added; by changing the order of the tests, the
ordering of the quirks also ought to be affected.  give it a try!

That sounds like bug 176060. Now that gnome-system-tools uses PolicyKit, you
need to run it as a normal user, and not through gksu. Could you verify that you
have network-manager-gnome 0.6.5-0ubuntu11, which fixed this issue, and that
running 'gksu network-admin' keeps it greyed out, and that running
'network-admin' you can unlock it?

I edited /usr/share/hal/scripts/linux/hal-syspem-power-suspend-linux and 
added a line to log the value of $QUIRKS when it was called, as follows:

then, after suspending, I just grepped /var/log/messages for "quirks"

If I suspend my laptop, I'll lose my mouse pointer.
The mouse action is still there, but no mouse pointer, so I cant see what I'm 
clicking.

I'm up to date, and using the menus, I just get a full grayed window and cant

If I try the old Network Monitor 2.12.1, it just says that the interface

take a look
at /usr/share/hal/scripts/linux/hal-syspem-power-suspend-linux & related
scripts -- the $QUIRK variable is built up in these scripts
progressively; all you would need to do is to alter the order in which
that's done.  you might also want to submit a patch or at least
bugreport to upstream, as i imagine no one's especially wedded to the
order of those quirks.

which package owns the gnome quit button?

2008-01-15 Thread Matt Price
as mentioned earlier in this thread, suspend now works for me using
pm-suspend, hibernate -F /etc/hibernate/ram.conf, and shutting laptop
lid (also works from the gdm login menu); but it fails if i try to quit
from the gnome system menu or the gnome panel 'quit' button.  i'm just
trying to find out who owns these applications so i can look at the code
to see what process they invoke to initiate a suspend or hibernate
event.  anyone know offhand?  thanks as always,

matt

Ok, I switched over to gdm and gnome and have similar problems.  It
suspends but does not resume.  So, I've been trying to work it out in a
terminal.  What I've discovered is that I can enter this and it works:

sudo pm-suspend --quirk-dpms-on --quirk-vga-mode3
--quirk-reset-brightness --quirk-vbe-post --quirk-vbemode-restore
--quirk-vbestate-restore

However, when I hit the suspend button, hal initiates the quirks in this
different order:

--quirk-dpms-on --quirk-vbestate-restore --quirk-vbemode-restore
--quirk-vga-mode3 --quirk-vbe-post --quirk-reset-brightness

so, if I try it in a terminal, it suspends but does not resume (same
result as suspend button):

sudo pm-suspend --quirk-dpms-on --quirk-vbestate-restore
--quirk-vbemode-restore --quirk-vga-mode3 --quirk-vbe-post
--quirk-reset-brightness

Now, I believe the problem is that my nvidia driver does not support the
vbetool.  But, why it works in the different order is puzzling to me.
Did you know that order matters?

Also, I have tried and successfully resumed from:

paul :~$ sudo pm-suspend --quirk-dpms-on --quirk-vbestate-restore
--quirk-vbemode-restore --quirk-vga-mode3 --quirk-reset-brightness

and successfully from:

paul :~$ sudo pm-suspend --quirk-dpms-on --quirk-vbestate-restore
--quirk-vbemode-restore --quirk-vga-mode3 --quirk-reset-brightness
--quirk-vbe-post

This makes me think that  --quirk-vbe-post is the problem, but only is
ok in certain orders.  I'm not sure I have enough time to try all the
combinations?

Also, I have gone back to kdm and kde and have the same experience in
the terminal, so there's not a problem in kde

Now that I know that, is there someplace I can config which quirks are
called and in what order?

Blue Marine is one program I've seen recommended for proper handling of EXIF

alternative to F-Spot because of the poor EXIF-handling at the time.

Ok. Sounds like KDE is failing to respond to the sleep button signal.

I personally don't have a problem with Mono or Java.  Both are excellent
technologies in my book.  Each has advantages and disadvantages like any
technology.  But when I last defended Mono and F-Spot, I got jumped like
a gang member in the wrong neighborhood.

Just trying to show options here.  Looking for solutions to defuse the
argument that erupted last time this was brought up, before the argument
erupts again.  Hoping to show that while gThumb is a poor product on its
best days (editorial, I know, but face it, its not good), but F-Spot and
Mono are not our only solutions.  There are other programs out there
that are of some serious quality.

The BM page says that the product is not quite of release quality, but
lets be real, its not of a professional release quality.  For the
average consumer, its perfectly stable enough.  I would not want to rely
on this if I was a professional photographer until a few bugs were

product.

BTW, I have just briefly played with Blue Marine, and that is one hell

rate Windows based graphical tools, and right at the far superior Mac
based one.  It would definitely be a capabilities upgrade from anything

This is not good.  I  had a kernel update so had to reboot anyway.  Now 
I find that even Fn-Esc does not work.  The only way to suspend is by 
konsole with "sudo pm-suspend" and it still works ok.  The 
kde-power-manager menu "suspend" does not work. either nor the keyboard

acpid needs restarting, so rebooting is the easiest way to do that. If

yes, especially since the missing deps for vinagre now break the

Not to mention that nautilus and eog already handle 95% of gthumb's
functionality.  You can open a folder in Nautilus, browse the files
within it, double-click to make them bigger and use Next/Previous
buttons to move between them at full size.

Main inclusion for transmission, vinagre and cheese

2008-01-15 Thread Wouter Stomp
Hello,

After it was decided that ubuntu would ship transmission and vinagre
in hardy, these were directly moved from universe to main. Cheese is
also new in main. I couldn't find main inclusion reports for these
packages. Even though it is already decided to go with these programs,
shouldn't these programs go through the usual main inclusion process
first?

Wouter.

To reduce duplication. F-spot is included to organize your photos (not
movies, but I don't think gthumb does that either?).

No of course not. This is only one of the many issues mentioned
earlier. Have you read my first email? Besides that, development of
brasero is very active, with bugs like these getting fixed very fast.

Why?

The amount of duplicates doesn't say anything. This bug is not likely
to occur often, but when it happens, you have wasted a cd or dvd. This
is just something basic that applications should get right.

Plenty of comments in the upstream bug report.

Yeah, something's clearly catching that. Can you try changing 
/etc/acpi/events/sleepbtn to call sleepbtn.sh and not sleep.sh?

And next time you find a bug in brasero not fixed yet you will advice
switching to yet another software? 
That's not really a constructive comment. The bug has no duplicate, no
comment since it has been opened and no new subscriber, it doesn't look
like an issue really annoying users and such not a priority to be worked

No matter how easy it is to fix, that is irrelevant when it isn't
done. There has been an open bug report on that for 18 months.
