The main problem is probably changing video modes.  Maybe the new
kernel-based modesetting in recent drivers might help here though?

This default depends on the list admin.  I configure it to (by default)
send 2 mails when the sender explicitly asks for it.  ;)

We already have 1.22 in Intrepid.  Unless 1.30 is going to be released before 
feature freeze, we probably don't want to update the package.

Mailing list filtering [Was: usplash and alternate resolutions]

The problem is that the only reasonable way to filter mailing list posts
is to use the X-Mailing-List header. When the CCed email is sent, it
won't have that header in place and will miss that filter.

I actually prefer to receive two copies of the email (one from the
mailing list with headers intact, one directly from the sender). This is
actually a good thing, because mails that are directed at me via CC get
to my inbox and receive my direct attention, while a copy of the entire
list stays in the mailing list folder.

Recent mailman versions have learned to only send one by default, so it
is necessary to configure it each time I sign up for a new mailing
list.

Thanz for the link. Though I'm sad to say this looks like another sad
example of FLOSS design. :(

There's no mention on the design of the aesthetic capabilities. What
"pretty" can all this code do?

But I guess this is a chat for another list. :P

We were already at that point. You were responding to Alexander's

that effect. I was responding directly to this:

Suggesting that he missed the point, and it would be an oval
regardless of the logo being overlaid on black. My point being, if we
made those changes, usplash would work perfectly fine at any
resolution.

transmission-1.30b1

2008-07-22 Thread Kevin Bortis
Hi, I have played the last two days with learning how to make a deb  
package. I tried it with transmission bittorrent client and the  
builded packages are seeming to work.


So if the Maintainer of transmission likes to include the upcoming  
1.30 release in Intrepid Ibex they could possibly just take the diff's  
from my files.


What I have done:
- Updated the package from 1.06 to 1.30b1 on hardy
- Cleaned the debian/copyright file because a lot have changed
- Added the new integrated web interface to transmission-common

The experimental packages are in my PPA: https://launchpad.net/~bortis/

If you can't use it, then I have at least learned something about  
packaging :)

right, but usplash currently doesnt support overlaid logos, currently
you only have the "wallpaper" (which is a black pic with the logo on it)
and the progressbar ... usplash itself tries to display that in a 4:3
format which on a physical wide screen becomes a stretched 16:9 (or
16:10 or whatever phys. size your screen has) picture ... 

to achieve what you describe usplash needs code changes and someon who
actually does them :)

Why would it be an oval?

a 300x200 logo

on a 800x600 monitor, an 800x600 black background is generated, and
the 300x200 logo overlaid on it (placed accordingly for our startup
progress stuff to appear).

on a 1280x800 monitor, a 1280x800 black background is generated, and
the 300x200 logo overlaid on it.

The point is for the logo to stay the same pixel size, regardless of
resolution, or at least only grow at the correct ratio; if the ratio
of the monitor is different than the ratio of the logo, use a black
background to compensate.

Their  mail client likely lacks a Reply to List, so they use Reply to

you can abuse the existing images and squeeze them into the right
resolution, i.e. on the classmate i used to have an image that
registered itself as 640x480 but was in fact a 640x400 image ... its
massively painful to maintain though and indeed breaks the 640x480
default image i guess thats solvable with a *-artwork-usplash-wide
package though, that contains the fake resolutions and replaces
*-artwork-usplash

Does anyone know if there is work underway in usplash to support

Re: Pulseaudio/Jack in Ubuntu Hardy

2008-07-22 Thread samk
See Thread at: http://www.techienuggets.com/Detail?tx=34200 Posted on behalf of 
a User

> In Ubuntu Studio we have a wrapper script around jackd to stop Pulse for
> JACK and restart it once done. This is what most users have wanted based

Where do I find this wrapper script?  I use ubuntu studio hardy on amd64, and 
am just starting to play with jack, ardour, hydrogen, and the constellation of 
stuff out there.  so far it seems that i have to kill pulseaudio from the 
command line (ps thru grep to find then kill via pid); start ardour, jack, et 
al, and when done I seem to have to LOG OUT and BACK IN to get pulse audio 
back.  Yech.  Not to mention the whole log on/off processes take way too long 
to begin with.  This script sounds like a headache saver; how do I get it and 
use it?

Thanks in advance,

Tim

In Response To: 

Hi!

I had a problem with ardour/jack/pulseaudio in Ubuntu Hardy and I was 
told to take it to the mailing list. I cc'd parties that may be 
interested. Please ignore this mail if you are not.

The related bugs in Launchpad are:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ardour/+bug/220576
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/214256

The problem is that ardour as installed by "aptitude install ardour" 
doesn't work. Recording is possible but playback doesn't work.
I was able to resolve the issue by manually starting jack with "jackd -d 
alsa".

My only concern is a working ardour after installing. For me it is 
extremely annoying to have manually fiddling with jackd.
I also do not care about latency or similar stuff.
I also imagine a new user (read composer/musician) to linux who 
immediately returns to windows after playback in ardour doesn't work.

Also it is not possible to use for example mplayer and ardour at the 
same time.

I was told that configuration of jack is a non-trivial thing to do 
because a professional user normally has a second sound card and jack 
has to be configured to use that (professional) equipment.

My opinion is that it should be possible to provide a _default_ 
configuration where jackd connects to pulseaudio (this is what 
module-jack-source is for, right?).

Let me repeat my two concerns:

1. Ardour in Ubuntu Hardy doesn't work out of the box
2. It is not possible to use mplayer and ardour at the same time

I believe it is possible manually fix this up but I have still the 
opinion that it should be possible to provide a simple default 
configuration.
So please convince me that I'm wrong (and it isn't possible to have a 
working ardour on a notebook) or tell me how this can be resolved.
You put so much hard work into ardour/jack/pulseaudio that it should not 
  fail because of a small configuration mistake.

Thanks for your work/ideas/help,

Gonz

Re: acpi-support: Lock screen with dbus during resume

How come this happens on resume?
When I suspend my screen fades to black and then suspends (implying that 
the screen was locked), but on resume my desktop is shown briefly before 
locking.
I don't tend to have anything horrifically incriminating on display 
anyway, but it seems a bit odd.

Cheers,
