Re: [Festival-libestools]Can someone show me the magic to compile the libestools?
On 10/23/08, yueyu lin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, dear developers, I'm a voice application developer. Recently I use the Festival in our project. First, I downloaded the festival and speech tools source codes and compile them in my Ubuntu8.04. Then I wrote a test C++ application which can run well to invoke the libFestival as part of the application. Then I use JNI to wrap them to a Java interface. Unfortunately the same native codes implementation crashed JVM every time. Thanks to the open source codes, I can track it's because of the libestools crashed the JVM--- but the native application runs well. When I finally plan to give up and try to use the festival client, I installed the festival and the libest from Ubuntu repository. Actually, they have the same newest version. When I recompile the native codes after removing the -L option, the magic happened-- it works, no codes change at all! I really got confused I even use the same configuration in speech_tools-- enable SHARED, why my homebrewed library will always crash the JVM? BTW: the JVM indicates the libestools use invalid memory address. I really want get the answer from the maintainer of the Ubuntu Festival-libestools. Can you give me some clues about how you set the compilation options? Since Ubuntu is only my work station, our real production platform is RHEL and CentOS(sadly, our Ops think they are enterprise level Linux, although I don't agree it that much...), I want to use the same compilation options for our production boxes so my application can run in these boxes well. Thanks a lot! -- -- Yueyu Lin -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
Re: Release notes
I think we should put a URL in the release notes, rather than an explicit list, so that it's current whenever people read it.

Re: System-Administration cleanup
AFAIK, these are real bugs as most are in conflict with this implemented blueprint : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MenusRevisited The separation between Applications System Tools and the System menu must be removed. This will be achieved by removing the items in Applications System Tools * With above, items that are mostly system administration tasks and/or use gksudo should be moved to System Administration * Items which affect only the current user are to be moved to System Preferences * _Anything else that is not going to be hidden/removed is moved to Applications Accessories_ -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

State of xserver-xorg-video-nv
Hi there, I would like to request some extra attention for the xserver-xorg-video-nv package. There are quite a number of bugs, and one of them is buggin' me. :) The bug is: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nv/+bug/275029 I get a 800x600 resolution when using nv. I'm not sure why, logging and config is attached to the bug. I just managed to get into 'failsave' which had a good resolution. So now I configured use of the Vesa driver in xorg.conf, and resolution is ok now. Please have a look at this, if there's still time. If input is needed, feel free to contact me.

Re: State of xserver-xorg-video-nv
If you have a patch from upstream that you can confirm fixes the issue, I can take a look, but otherwise you're a bit too late for intrepid which is already into RC freeze. You're right that there's lots of -nv bugs; I've upstreamed several in recent weeks but they seem not to get attention upstream. On the other hand, -ati and -intel bugs do seem to get productive attention upstream, so I've focused my energies more towards those. If you would be willing to lend some time to assist with triaging and upstreaming -nv, I can provide mentoring. Pop into #ubuntu-x on IRC and flag me down. As to your particular bug, you're missing some important details needed for troubleshooting. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Reporting for tips on what to include in X bug reports.

Removable Drives and Media is really preferred applications for handling removable drives and media, so it doesn't really need to be separate. That is of course true, but it's a separate problem, not a problem with gnome-control-center. It exists both in the Ubuntu menu and in gnome-control-center. I'm fairly sure it's a known problem upstream and there is at least some gradual work to combine utilities (such as the Appearance utility). -- Matthew East http://www.mdke.org gnupg pub 1024D/0E6B06FF -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
