The newer tablets will be supported in 16.04 when the right wacom
drivers are available. There are currently no backports I know of for
the driver (which is a real problem)

I agree to the above assessment, this needs to be marked as a duplicate
of bug #171795 since the gdtk-pixbf method isn;t coming back for the

[Bug 1340740] [NEW] Rhythembox sink is hidden by normal user interface

2014-07-11 Thread Martin Owens
Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.04 64bit

This might be a situation that doesn't happen a lot but... My computer
is currently on a hard drive and is booting on different computers. Thus
the audio hardware changes between boots and this might have confused
pulseaudio regarding rythembox.

Symptoms:
 * Walltop: All sound works, no issue. Internal Intel audio only
 * Laptop: Sound works, tests work, gstreamer (Totem) plays sound, rythembox 
fails to play any sound. Internal intel audio.

Investigation: Install pavucontrol and notice sink for rythembox is set
to HDMI output, even though hdmi output is a) not enabled and b) not
available in the regular volume/sound settings user interface.

I set the audio sink to the right hardware interface and sound played
without issue.

But, this is a user interface issue, because there was a setting which
stopped sound from being played (or played it to the wrong sink
potentionally) but for which the sound control pannel failed to either
notice, notify or allow to be changed.

Pulseaudio also failed, because it allowed rythembox to fallback to an
application level hardware sink which was not in use. The walltop
doesn't have hdmi, so I think it just fell back to another hardware sink
after failing to lock onto hdmi.

[Bug 166371] Re: Illustrator CS SVG won't load: namespace URIs in entities

2013-09-10 Thread Martin Owens
ScislaC: I can confirm the replacement in Firefox. Now that I have real
entries, I've tested it completely and read up more on libxml2 mailing
list. It looks like the parsing of SYSTEM/PUBLIC entity data caused them
to drop the NOENT replacement option, giving us no option to disable
SYSTEM/PUBLIC parsing or introducing custom entities before the parser
croaks.

Thus, I'm convinced that a patch to libxml2 is the only solution without
hacking inkscape to read in the xml first and search and replace
entities from a set list for illustrator files. Which I would hate to
have to do.

2013-09-10 Thread Martin Owens
Testing with r12504 of trunk, the bug can not be duplicated. All files
with entities in their headers are loaded correctly and the NONET option
has been tested to make sure it's still in effect and the XXE vuln has
been tested for both local and net loading.

I'm going to go back through revs to see where it was fixed, but for now
this bug Is fixed.

[Bug 785701] Re: Inkscape freezes at opening

2013-06-28 Thread Martin Owens
I've been pondering this bug all day, I couldn't work out a safe way to
test it without causing network errors.

Instead I decided to build a FUSE file-system which can be set to break
on certain calls. It will freeze just like this bad network effect and
we can test any kind of bad IO handling from there. See
https://code.launchpad.net/~doctormo/+junk/gremlinfuse and the
accompanying readme. Let me know if you are able to test and what your
results are.

2013-06-14 Thread Martin Owens
Looks like the crash was caused when inkscape tried to render a preview
svg into a pixmap for display in Inkscape::UI::Dialog::FileListViewText,
it may be a bug in rsvg but it's hard to know for sure without that svg
file. If you can find the svg file you were trying to open and it's
still causing inkscape to crash, please attach it here.

We should make a wishlist bug report on launchpad to develop the missing
parts which would allows wishlist bug reports to have some of the
features of brainstorm. Bringing the functionality into the project
management ecosystem and simplifying things for developers and users.

We don want Ubuntu to be accused of shuttering a service which is
dedicated to listening to users when there has been such a bad
reputation for not listening in the past. Even if it's not being used.

Personally I think it should have been closed years ago and replaced
with launchpad.

Hey Legwan, the problem that the majority on this bug report are
suffering, is with the 32bit version. That this version works for you,
probably means it's a different bug. Or perhaps a related bug.

For everyone else using the 32bit version and getting creamed by a

bring the issue up as important is the ubuntu developers mailing list.

[Bug 947577] Re: Pressure sensitivity broken on Ubuntu Precise

2012-03-05 Thread Martin Owens
Yes I can confirm that Gimp on Oneiric has issues, but those issues were
corruptions, something to do with a change in the Gnome API. But testing
on precise shows those issues to have been cleared up in Gnome and I
think we're just waiting for inkscape to be fixed now.

[Bug 661248] Re: PCI Race Condition with COMPAL FL90

2012-02-13 Thread Martin Owens
I can confirm the bios=pci method on this COMPAL FL90 (System76 Pangol')
after testing every kernel option with multiple boots (7 each) it's the
only thing that would start the computer even into safe mode... which is
odd since you wouldn't think safe mode would have anything to do with
the graphics card driver.

[Bug 930737] [NEW] Tablets don't work with Unity bar (new mouse strenth bug)

2012-02-11 Thread Martin Owens
Public bug reported:

The new Unity configuration allows the mouse to move beyond the side of
the screen which is calculated as 'pressure' which then activates the
display of the normally hidden Unity bar.

The problem is for Wacom and other tablets which have absolute
positioning. there is no way to go beyond the side of the screen since
that's the side of the tablet.

It's possible to turn off the hidden mode, but it'd be nice for unity to
detect that the xinput is coming from an absolute pointer and for it to
change modes to something which will work for these devices.

Re: [ubuntu-marketing] How to convert a cyber cafe owner to Ubuntu?

2012-01-27 Thread Martin Owens
Hi Vibhav,

I run an Ubuntu public access computer lab here in Boston. The tools and
skills needed to run a multi-user environment are quite different to the
skills needed for a simple desktop.

I think the first job is to find out as much as you can about the tools
which you can use in a cyber cafe which will give the owner some
advantages. Ways to control the computers remotely, ways to time the
session (I wrote a session manager for this kind of thing available in
my greeter ppa) and ways to identify users and bill them if required.

Secondly it's useful to demonstrate the many themes and looks the
computers can have. From the elegant Unity interface to the XP, Windows
7 and OSX themes which can make Ubuntu computers look like anything. We
actually use all four interfaces and teach them so users understand not
to be afraid of new interfaces.

Lasty you may need to get him to see the advantages of learning more
about Ubuntu himself directly. Get his personal computer dual booting
and get him into the whole free and open source and idea.

Good luck!

Best Regards, Martin Owens

[Bug 918333] [NEW] PCI Failure in Precise

2012-01-18 Thread Martin Owens
Public bug reported:

I talked with awp on irc about how to report this issue. In the report
below you will see a working set of logs from dmesg and a working lspci.
I will add to this a log containing the non-working dmesg and lspci

Basically for 90% of boots the computer fails to load because it can't
load  the graphics driver. You can actually tell when the boot will work
because it will show the full plymouth boot animation. In all other
cases it's either the text plymoth or a purple screen which then goes to
black and a non-functioning computer. Requiring a hard reset.

Some additional information before I build the upstream kernel:

In my attempts to boot into recovery I could not get a successful boot.
It would always stop on:

pci: 00.000.01 ICH7 LPC Generic IO decode 4 PIO at 1640 (mask 007f)

I've just gone through the kernel's pci boot options. Almost all of them
have no effect except for pci=bios which causes the computer to boot
into both recovery mode and into normal Ubuntu 12.04 flawlessly. I've
booted 8 times with this option set to make sure it's not intermittent.

Yes, technical problems. Pulling in the gwibber stack itself isn't
really required, it's a matter of loading the service (dbus) and then
hijacking the existing web frame space in the ui for the authentication
page which is simply passing the token information back as json.

But yes, I understand that making sure gwibber is running, making sure
we're online, checking all the boxes for all the social and privacy
concerns that are doubtless to arise would be something to do only when
we're confident about the architecture and test suite available for
ubiquity.

I just thought I'd throw in an interesting target on a 2009 blueprint
which paints this relatively tame idea in a contrasting light.

Perhaps some added documentation in the udev rules or a commented out

You could even stick in some of your points directly into the file to

You seem to be saying it's not legacy, and then saying that it should be
legacy? I'm confused because the documentation/enablement is so poor a
systems administrator can not currently use saned whether he is informed
or ill-informed about it's security implications.

If it has security problems, then just say it's disabled and can be
enabled thusly, report a bug upstream about it's crappness and how it
should use ssl, gpg etc. Otherwise we have a feature that sounds
dangerous (could blow up in your face) and is so difficult to set up
that setting it up looks like a big fat packaging bug.

Surely normal operation shouldn't look like a bug, regardless of how
carefully you want systems administrators to consider the security of
their system?

 some parallel port scanners).
 
 And even then, data is sent unencrypted so it is not suitable for use
 with sensitive documents.
 
 If you really want to share a scanner, the correct solution is scan 
 send (either mail or private network share), not saned. Most of the
 time
 you'll just end up using an old workstation and have users log into
 it,
 scan their documents and save them to their network share.

OK sounds like we've found the problem with the package. We need to
still create the scanner group in the libsane package. We should get
this information to the debian/ubuntu package maintainer.

Psy, on my oneiric machine, I have a scanner group, I also have a saned
group. I believe the problem is between these two groups. I've emailed
the maintainers to ask for advice.

libsane and acl group selection in udev rules

2011-10-24 Thread Martin Owens
As per the launchpad bug #773617[1] we've managed to track a
multi-release issue in oneiric to a packaging/acl issue.

It appears that the 40-libsane.rules file contains the following line:

ENV{libsane_matched}==yes, RUN+=/bin/setfacl -m g:scanner:rw
$env{DEVNAME}

Which should add the scanner to the scanner group and allow network
scanner sharing to work again. But we also have a saned group which I
believe the saned network scanner is using instead of scanner.

Should we change the setfacl to use saned? change saned to use the
scanner group? Add both scanner and saned permissions into the rules
file? Or add the saned user to the scanner group?

Please advise.

Best Regards, Martin Owens

It's encoded in a C program the acl problem called from that rules file.
I think it's changing the owner back to root. There's a program to list
the extended permissions on a file. the program is super stupid about
being able to expand what groups and users can access a file.

The correct fix is to change udev-acl to accept a group param to make
sure it goes into the right group, or give the saned user special
privileges.

Welcome Joel,

It's great to have you here. Are you mainly in the area of design and
production (html/php) or can you do drawing art as well?

What kinds of things would you like to help with? Do you know any
python? PLaces like the loco directory need more design help and general
help, there are also lots of small pieces that could do with some
art/design attention.

Psy, In maverick I added:

ENV{libsane_matched}==yes, GROUP=saned

to /lib/udev/rules.d/70-acl.rules

But I also think that saned should be fixed to use the acl instead of
looking for the saned group, it's weird how any users are allowed to
access it but saned is not.

2011-10-18 Thread Martin Owens
I can confirm the issue with my system76 Pan3 nvidia-driver. Moving any
window causes compiz cpu load to spike to 100%. Even if this needs
fixing in the driver (why I don't know) compiz is broken in chewing
through resources. I'd rather it just failed to move windows and then we
know that there is an issue that can't be ignored than move the windows
with software rendering and having the bug be ignored.

 * Anything to do with how something looks, workflow or speed is not

with bugs as he feels like it and expects patches.

I understand your point Nick, I'd really like a cycle that focuses

 beyond what's normally considered free software 

With this meta package it gets very tricky, firstly because we've got

case of DMCA issues. Most of the software/content in the package is free
software and only 3 hack scripts pull in non-free software/content:

ubuntu-restricted-addons (meta)
 - adobe-flashplugin - Non-free software
 - flashplugin-installer - Hack script because we can't convince adobe
to change their distribution license.
 - gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg - Free software, lib issues*
 - gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 - Non-free, not sure why we're using this
instead of libmad which is free software.
 - gstreamer0.10-pitfdll - pulls in w32codecs which contains very
certainly copyright infringing dlls (long time since I rechecked this
though).
 - gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad - Free software, lib issues*
 - gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly - Free software, lib issues*, pulls in
libmad (mp3 dupe?) and libdvdread4 which is a hack to install a script
to install libdvdcss because we can't be sure if libdvdcss falls under
the DMCA safe harbour so we do the wrong thing.
 - icedtea6-plugin - Free software, but lots of users want the non free
Sun java-plugin because yahoo games didn't used to work with icetea.
Maybe we should tell our users?
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse - Free software, lib issues*
libavcodec-extra-53 - Free software, lib issues and packaging issues.
ttf-mscorefonts-installer - Hack script to install the Microsoft fonts,
unlikely we'll ever get a distribution agreement for this non-free
content.
unrar - Actually fixed by the FSF, there is no need for unrar-nonfree
any more and unrar could probably go into the distro/main/multiverse
(and probably is) so this should be removed.

* Library issues are mainly due to patent issues which we have no data,
we do know that certain libraries have a high probability of stepping on
known aggressive patent pools but without data we end up sticking all
media support together in a just in case package.

I think if Canonical can engadge with the LoCo teams and other community

local media and other contacts we might have.

At the moment, I don't know if it's possible to re-submit Canonical's

Otherwise, the community does make announcements, it just doesn't submit

We don't have any proprietary codecs, the need for w32codecs package is

Re: why is there no mention of the word Linux on the ubuntu.com frontpage?

 This might not seem like a big issue, bug given Ubuntu's commitment to
 open source it's at least a bit strange. I would appreciate some
 background on when this happened, any why. 

Because Ubuntu isn't Linux and Linux isn't an operating system. Linux is
a kernel. You'll note the lack of 'Gnome', 'Xorg' and 'PulseAudio' too
on the front page.

Because 'Linux' is a toxic brand in the desktop space. Anything that can
convince users that what we have here isn't Linux, the better. Otherwise
we face resistance from people who tried redhat 6 back in 1999 and
didn't like it and think we offer the same.

I'm more chaffed by the lack of 'Free Software' or 'Free and Open
Source' on the homepage. That shows a lack of support more than
including the word 'Linux' there.

Attached is the dmi information, a fresh natty install just failed.

Did you install the nvidia driver yourself or did the system install it
for you during the install?

Bigger isn't always better. What we want is a healthy Canonical in

I don't agree with being told to pick one of the three.

[Bug 773617] [NEW] Saned group is missing permissions to access scanners via udev-acl

2011-04-29 Thread Martin Owens
Public bug reported:

The udev rules for scanners now allow everyone to scan by using acl
control,  the problem with this control is that it doesn't allow the
saned user/group to access the scanner.

This prevents scanners from being scared over the network, unless
they're hp scanners. There are some workarounds for instance:

http://blog.crox.net/archives/64-Scanner-permissions-in-Ubuntu-Karmic-
udev-libusb-saned-problem-with-udev-acl.html

Which when tested didn't work for Maverick. But I think this should be
fixed in the saned rules/acl rules somehow to guarantee the saned
user/group can access scanners.

 The Gnome developers are also upset at Canonical.  No idea why. 

It's because Canonical only ate their ice cream cone and wouldn't eat
their ice cream. I remember when Gnome developers* built a rocket and
visited the moon, brought back a whole ton of cheese.

I tell you one thing that'll stop people using Unity... if it doesn't
actually work. Hardware issues are a lot more pressing that design
issues, especially now that the design is much more demanding on the
hardware.

Also I don't like that I can't write anything in python that looks like
Unity, I have to write it all in C and talk directly to OpenGL, which is
messy. If I tried to use Gnome3 then I'd end up having to write in
javascript, which I hate for no apparent reason.

Oh woe! Won't someone let me write cool stuff in python?

As much as I would love to show up Gnome by writing a qt4 gdm-greeter,
it doesn't really work well. Gdm has issues with compositing that I
can't quite get my head around.

Perhaps I'll try it again some other way, not much experience with qt4
so perhaps I did it wrong in my tests.

Standards, standards, standards ;-)

We have all sorts of problems now because Gnome project sets the
standards for Ubuntu (or what should work in Ubuntu). It becomes
apparent that we will more clearly have to specify that our platform
here is not Gnome but something else. So if you have a Gnome app it'll
mostly work, but if you have an Ubuntu app, it'll work perfectly.

[Bug 734325] Re: Natty: Users should be able to easily turn off (disbable) global menu

2011-04-05 Thread Martin Owens
MPT - Consider changing classic ubuntu in this release so it doesn't
use global menu bars, or that they are switched off by default.

At least in this release, since users have enough problems coping with
their upgrade to Unity without having even more headaches with the
classic ubuntu setting not actually looking or acting anything like
10.10.

Next release do what you want, but this release... soft landing time for
options.

Hey Cassandra,

Thanks for coming to help :-)

There are lots of things to do, for icons I think the best place is to
go to the Tango project (for gnome icons) and to the specific project
for program icons.

There is lots of art required for posters, flyers and such. Let us know
what kind of media you can do in that regard.

Everything else is pretty much up to you and other groups who come here
and ask for art from time to time.

I did some installable wallpapers, they're interesting and hard to make
because you need to both install the wallpaper and modify all current

You will probably need to know debian packaging quite well in order to
navigate the mess that is wallpaper packaging.
