[Bug 261068] Re: kdenlive missing menu icon in gnome

2008-09-11 Thread Alexei Colin
Thanks for the advice! =) I will contact the kdenlive developers about
this small patch.

Hm.. I started from apt-get source kdenlive -- the source that was there
+ this patch built for me and the (non-source) package installed fine.
I'm sure you'll find the culprit.

[Bug 282387] Re: scrollwheel emulation breaks after suspend with 2.6.27-7

2008-12-23 Thread Alexei Colin
To add to obsidian's comment #68, it seems that HAL policy file is being
read, but it is not being read in correctly. Here are two examples of a
line in the policy file and what output from xinput it leads to after
reboot:

4 5
Wheel Emulation Y Axis: 4, 0

5 4
Wheel Emulation Y Axis: 5, 0

Maybe it is worth filing a bug report about this one if people agree.

Perhaps fixing this is a good small project for a new want-to-be
contributor. Harald, would you mentor me on this one, please? As far as
I can tell, a .desktop file must be included into the package, which
would specify how the menu should be populated.

Please let me know if I could try and help with this one.

[Bug 261068] Re: kdenlive missing menu icon in gnome

2008-09-07 Thread Alexei Colin
Harald, thank you for giving a direction -- it sped up the diagnosis.
The problem is due to a change made outside of kdenlive: the .desktop
files used to be stored in /usr/share/applnk/ but now they
should be stored in /usr/share/applications/kde. The icon appears to be
in order.

The fix involves:
1.  edit kdenlive/CMakeLists.txt: 
- INSTALL (FILES kdenlive.desktop DESTINATION share/applnk/Multimedia)
+ INSTALL (FILES kdenlive.desktop DESTINATION ${XDG_APPS_DIR})

2. edit kdenlive/kdenlive.desktop:
- Icon=kdenlive.png
+ Icon=kdenlive
(possibly other edits to make kdenlive.desktop comply to the specification -- 
it doesn' t now)

Both files are part of the kdenlive source tarball. No changes are
needed to the Debian package, strictly speaking. Is it good practice to
change the package so that it patches these files in the original
source? The Ubuntu packaging docs suggest that no. Also, the
CMakeLists.txt change is implemented already in the latest kdenlive
source in SVN (sort of.. -- they chose to hard-code the XDG_APPS_DIR
value). So, what's the correct next step of bringing this fix to the
people? :)

Thanks and sorry for my inexperience!

Harald, I tested the built patched package on my system, the fix worked.
So, here's the debdiff. I tried to read about the next step in Ubuntu's 
Sponsorship guide, but still need to ask you what would it be? 

Also, for sending the .desktop changes upstream, should I open a bug
report in Bug Tracker kdenlive.org? or what's the nice way to let them
know?

Re: [Bug 190585] Re: System lags after resume due to high hard drive activity

2008-02-17 Thread Alexei Colin
Iulian and Mark, thank you for replying!

It just so happened that I added some RAM to my computer a few days
ago: from 1GB
to 2GB. With 2GB, I cannot reproduce the bug. I've maxed out RAM usage
and had lots
of swap usage, but even though this would have caused the bug before,
now the system
resumes fine every time (under Compiz). I did not try it under
metacity with new RAM.

I swear the bug was consistent on my system before. But I cannot
guarantee that the
RAM upgrade was what fixed it because I also rebuilt swap (mkswap) a
few times between
now and then.

If it is worth it, I would be willing to take out the new 1GB of RAM
and try to reproduce
the bug again. Let me know if that would be helpful.

Mark, if this is not a Compiz bug, which project should we report it
under?

[Bug 147902] Re: Battery disappears on restore, no longer reacts to lid close

2008-02-08 Thread Alexei Colin
A similar problem happens in gnome:

After restarting HAL (i.e. sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart), the suspend button on 
the
keyboard stops working and the system does not respond to lid closure. Suspend
(and resume) continue to work fine through the GUI menu button in the 
gnome-panel.

I manually restart HAL as a fix of a separate problem: wireless controller is 
lost
(i.e. not detected) after resuming. It reappears after a HAL restart, so I put 
the
command for restarting HAL in a script that is run on each resume. The problem
in this post is of course not applicable if I remove the script.

Please let me know if I should post this as a separate bug-report or if you came
across an existing report. Thank you!

[Bug 27643] Re: system lags after suspend to memory

2008-02-09 Thread Alexei Colin
Similar problem, months later on this system:

Thinkpad T60 with ATI Radeon X1400
Ubuntu 7.10 (Kernel 2.6.24-4-generic)
Catalyst 8.01 video drivers (fglrx)
Compiz Fusion

To replicate the problem, the computer must be suspended when RAM use is above 
~60%.
Then, upon resume there is mad harddrive activity, but almost no CPU usage and 
nothing 
strange with memory usage. The system is extremely slow. I don't know which 
process is
accessing the harddrive so much (how to check this?).

Running
sudo swapoff -a   
sudo swapon -a
fixes the lagging and brings the system back to normal (but this takes a long 
time).

The problem does not exist in Metacity. So, I guess I should be filing a
Compiz bug report.

[Bug 190585] [NEW] System lags after resume due to high hard drive activity

2008-02-09 Thread Alexei Colin
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

System lags (to a point where it is not usable) after resuming from a suspend 
to RAM. 
The lagging is due to extremely high hard-drive activity. 

System:
Thinkpad T60 with ATI Radeon X1400
Ubuntu 7.10 (Kernel 2.6.24-4-generic)
Catalyst 8.01 video drivers (fglrx)
Compiz Fusion package v. 1:0.6.2+git20071119-0ubuntu1~gutsy1 

To replicate the problem, the computer must be suspended when RAM use is above 
~60%.
Then, upon resume there is mad harddrive activity, but almost no CPU usage and 
nothing
strange with memory usage. The system is extremely slow. I don't know which 
process is
accessing the harddrive so much (how do you check this?).

Running
sudo swapoff -a
sudo swapon -a
fixes the lagging and brings the system back to normal (but this takes a long 
time).

If suspend was done when the RAM usage was low, system is normal after
resume.

The problem does not exist in Metacity -- hence the bug report in
Compiz.

Thank you!

Suspend/resume works with Compiz! It takes about 15sec to suspend.

Compiz runs smoothly. BUT

2008-01-25 Thread Alexei Colin
Same problem on Ubuntu Gutsy (Kernel 2.6.24-4) on Thinkpad T60 with ATI Radeon 
X1400
and ATI's fglrx v8.01, and Compiz.

When LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT is set (default, unfortunately):
- glxgears: a bit choppy at fps=3500
- fgl_glxgears: Segmentation fault

When LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT is unset (manually in a terminal):
- glxgears: works at fps=4200
- fgl_glxgears: works at fps=900 (without window decoration, though)

Compiz works smoothly; suspend/resume works also.

A separate fix would be to fix the "segmentation fault" in fgl_glxgears and 
replace it with
an informative error message about LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT

[Bug 502653] Re: directory change not saved

2010-01-21 Thread Alexei Colin
Hi. Just for the sake of contributing some more information on this
case, I went through your steps and here's what I got (also, Ubuntu 9.10
with rtorren t 0.8.2-0ubuntu2).

Case 1:
 1. Add torrent (adds into a CLOSED state, so no files are created in the 
default directory)
 2. Change torrent download directory
 3. Start the download (files created in the new directory)
 4. Kill rtorrent *not* graciously (e.g. killall -9 rtorrent) to simulate a 
crash
 5. Start rtorrent
Result: rtorrent opens with the torrent in the CLOSED state and directory set 
to the *default* directory. 
 (5a - no effect). Start rtorrent (files created in default directory, since 
nothing was ever there), stop and close the torrent back.
 6. Change download directory to the new directory (with partial data)
 7. Start the torrent (Ctrl-s)
Result: Hash re-check is automatically triggered and torrent download is 
continued into the new directory.

At least this use case does not necessary suggest a bug. rtorrent is not
cleanly shut down so the directory change does not make it to the
session file, so when it starts back up the session information is out-
of-date. The straightforward recovery from the situation worked for me
(whereas it did not for you -- strange). I haven't read the code, so
this might not be relevant, but perhaps session changes could be pushed
to the file more frequently (and maybe fsync() should be used, esp. on
events like directory change) -- just a thought. Note that if I cleanly
quit rtorrent in step 4, then the directory change is remembered as
expected.

By the way, to change the default directory without reloading
.rtorrent.rc  you can do Ctrl-x, directory=/path/to/dir.

Case 2:
 1. Add torrent
 2. Start torrent (creates files in the default directory)
 3. Stop and close torrent
 4. Change directory
 5. Try to start torrent (Ctrl-s)
Result: Cannot start torrent (error in log: "could not find file [one of 
torrent content files in torrent's new directory]"). 
 6. Try initiating hash recheck (Ctrl-r).
Result: rtorrent *crashes* with "rtorrent: TrackerManager::send_later() 
m_control->set() == DownloadInfo::STOPPED." and return code 255.

This use case looks like a bug, though. But maybe it was fixed in latest
version of rtorrent.. I should try that soon.

[Bug 492941] Re: Error connecting to bus: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.LimitsExceeded: The maximum number of active connections for UID 1000 has been reached

2009-12-16 Thread Alexei Colin
I stumbled on this D-Bus LimitsExceeded error (and applied a workaround)
while trying to fix wireless connection using NetworkManager that no
longer worked after upgrading to Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic. The problem was
that NetworkManager calls dhclient and expects dhclient to communicate
the DHCP lease to it via D-Bus, but dhclient fails to access D-Bus with
the same error:

Error: could not get the system bus.  Make sure the message bus daemon
is running!  Message: (org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.LimitsExceeded) The
maximum number of active connections for UID 0 has been reached

Following this old post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=779992 I added 
a value for max_connections_per_user limit into /etc/dbus-1/system.conf : 
256

After this, dhclient and NetworkManager are all happy, which suggests
that this is indeed an issue on the D-Bus side (perhaps related to
configuration?). Hope this helps.

[Bug 445141] Re: Podcasts don't download if the files are all the same filename.

2010-12-26 Thread Alexei Colin
The fix above seems to cover one case, but there's another that I just stumbled 
upon. The standard::copy-name attribute might not be set by the gvfs backend. 
In that case, currently, we fall back to edit-name attribute (and only if 
that's not set either -- to escaped URI). That causes the original undesired 
behavior that prompted this bug report: podcasts with non-unique file 
attributes/file names are unusable. Here's a real example:
$ gvfs-info http://computersciencepodcast.com/download-mp3/1/episode.mp3
display name: episode.mp3
edit name: episode.mp3
...
attributes:
  ...
  standard::display-name: episode.mp3
  standard::edit-name: episode.mp3

A fix for this particular case could be to fall back to the escaped URI
and not to edit-name attr when copy-name is not set (see trivial patch
for this below). However, that wouldn't really cure the real issue: it
would be nice if Rhythmbox were robust against non-unique file
attributes (ie, even if they are set) and file names on podcasts. Of
course, this is a problem of podcast creators, but it might still make
sense to work around it, esp. since in the canonical Rhythmbox user
doesn't care about filenames of saved podcasts at all. A patch for this
is not included but seems simple as well -- just always use the current
fall-back-to-URI path for the local filename.

Patch to not fall back on edit-name when copy-name is null (for real
example above):

[Bug 944468] Re: keyboard layouts plugin forgets all settings at random times

2013-02-25 Thread Alexei Colin
Re #13:
I think essentially what you suggest (to have Xfce keyboard settings own the 
persisted settings and xkb-plugin interact with Xkb without persisting), has 
been done on the plugin side in commit fb667951f66a05b87949b3eaf9e7c04697899fea 
which is not in 0.5.4.3. Perhaps it's time for a release of the plugin.

Side question: if we let Xfce control the layout (i.e. uncheck "Use
system defaults" in Keyboard Settings), then how does one set the
default layout? Is it the first in the list? But then, there are no re-
ordering contols other than remove then re-add.

2012-01-15 Thread Alexei Colin
Same problem on Thinkpad T60 running 3.0.0-14-generic with a non-native
but compatible CD drive (took it from a T40, iirc): /dev/sr0 only
created with acpi=off boot parameter. There is no BIOS setting to
disable the drive (re comment #18). The drive model is in the log
(during acpi=off boot only):

The drive used to be detected by Ubuntu fine at some point in the past
(I don't remember if this was before or after grub->grub2 update, but I
don't think I ever used lilo). Should this bug be marked as a
[regression]? Is there any debugging information that can be provided?
Should we file an upstream report if it has been positively determined

[Bug 863834] Re: [regression] Suspend on lid close broken on Oneiric

2012-01-08 Thread Alexei Colin
In my case (Gnome3 on Oneiric on Thinkpad T60 with Radeon X1400) this is a 
collusion of two issues pointed out separately above:
(1) Gnome3's intended behavior is to disallow suspend while more than one 
monitor is active (comment #8, comment #3, [1])
(2) upower returns a false positive when asked whether more than one monitor is 
active (aka the is-docked state) for *some* graphic devices (comment #20, Bug 
#854404 and [2] is related but my false positive manifests on a system with a 
single video card)

Potential fix for issue (2) is in a patched upower package available at
ppa:alexei.colin/upower (details on the patch are in [2]). Run 'upower
-d | grep docked'. Note that because of a known issue with notifications
[3] you might have to restart upowerd daemon to see the effect of
turning off a screen; also note that the monitor must be cleanly turned
off from display settings, pulling the cable doesn't change any state in
my experience).

RANT: 
(1) see upower rant in [2]
(2) This Gnome3 behavior should be configurable. Once issue (2) is fixed, the 
Gnome3's *intended* behavior is actually working, but that just creates the 
issue of how to get rid of this behavior... anybody know if it's configurable 
at least manually if not in Gnome GUI settings? (I'm not hopeful for more GUI 
settings after [4])

[3] From comment on PollDockDevices in UPower.conf:  Poll the kernel for dock 
state changes. Some drivers are still broken, and do not send out uvents when 
the connected state changes. default=false

You can do Alt-SysRq-l to dump a kernel stack trace to kernel log
(dmesg).  See /Documentation/sysrq.txt.

When I did this on my machine with 'firefox' in the same state: it
revealed try_to_wake_up/afs_cv_wait in openafs module. Not completely
sure, but probably spinning somewhere there in the networked file system
code.

[Bug 1070994] Re: Boot failes after upgrading the kernel from 3.2.0-29 to 3.2.0-30 and following

2012-11-19 Thread Alexei Colin
On my T60 3.2.0-33-generic-pae it seems very likely to be related to the
docking station (or to a pair of them). This is on BIOS 2.27   25 Apr
2011.

After suspending while docked in station A, it hung on resume in station
B. This did work fine before. It continued to hang on boot even after
hard reboot, undocking, and full battery removal (a couple of tries). I
checked the log only on last hang: "Illegal UART type: undefined". It
booted successfully only when I re-docked and booted while docked (using
power button on dock -- that might make a difference).  I successfully
suspended while docked and resumed fine previously (on this BIOS
version; old BIOS would lock up in this scenario).

Once the boot failure happens, it's persistent, but it does not seem
reproducible at will. If I do reproduce it, will try to test upstream.

2013-05-14 Thread Alexei Colin
Yes, firefox was the unkillable process in that case. I did save a tiny
shell log at the time:

acolin@thinkpad ~$ ps aux | grep firefox
acolin3904 51.4  8.9 774456 276596 ?   Rs   18:06  18:20

acolin5693  0.0  0.0   4392   808 pts/3S+   18:42   0:00 grep firefox

Sadly, I don't have any more information and don't have any hopes of
reproducing this, but hopefully the stack trace shed's light on possible
causes.

[Bug 764330] Re: Move window annoying slow with compiz

2011-08-06 Thread Alexei Colin
Call me crazy, but in my case the severe lag on moving windows shows up
*only* when Firefox >= v4.0 is running.

In fact, the lag is proportional to the number of Firefox windows open
(but not to the number of tabs). The Firefox window state and which
workspace it is in relative to the window being dragged does not matter.
Reproducible  with about:blank and in Firefox safe-mode (no add-ins). No
other application (tried a few: from Chrome open to GIMP) causes any lag
regardless of number of windows, also Firefox v3.6 does *not* cause the
lag either (so I downgraded for now). Yes, it sounds crazy -- but that's
it: the fewer Firefox windows open, the less lag, and no lag when
Firefox is not running!

Why? My only wild guess is: Firefox 4.0 is the first one that came with
Unity integration (however, I have the "menu bar integration with Unity"
disabled... and Unity turned off). In any case, its tab control is
noticeably different from v3.6 (and feels like it comes from outside of
Firefox -- pure speculation). It might not be Firefox's fault, but it
does something to bring up the problem wherever this problem is.

Different mice (Thinkpad's trackpad, trackpoint, external Logitech
wireless) exhibit noticeably different degrees of lag -- so it does seem
mouse related in some way. Setting mousepoll=10 (and confirming it had
that value after reboot) makes no difference (for the usb mouse).
Killing unity-window-decorator and moving window using context menu's
Move also lags in same way. Playing with above-mentioned params in
compiz config makes no difference. Restarting compiz makes no difference
-- lag disappears after Firefox is closed *without* any restart.

System:
Ubuntu Natty, Radeon X1400 with open source drivers
gnome-panel+compiz (Unity turned off)
All other actions in compiz e.g. cube are smooth regardless of whether Firefox 
is running, although when Firefox is running, there is a lag when rotation is 
initiated.

[Bug 445141] Re: Podcasts don't download if the files are all the same filename.

2011-01-06 Thread Alexei Colin
@Luca: I'm no authority on this but your situation looks strange. The
filename you are seeing is constructed as a result of the patch that was
submitted to fix the bug. However, for you podcast it shouldn't fall
back to the "escaped uri" filename because gvfs-info reports that
stardard::edit-name is set, which means edit-name should be taken as the
filename (since copy-name is not set). I would look at the debug output
when downloading any of those podcasts: run "rhythmbox -d".

Sidenote re my comment #19: it seems people do care about filenames. But
handling podcasts with episodes with identical copy-name's (and/or edit-
name's) still needs to be resolved. Perhaps a new bug needs to be
submitted?

[Bug 569680] Re: Hard disk write/read freezes for 10 seconds several times in session

2011-02-17 Thread Alexei Colin
Hardware: Norhtec MicroClient JrMX (an i582 SoC based on Xcore86) with HD 
hooked up to SATA
Kernel: compiled from source 2.6.36 #7 Wed Dec 8 22:05:03 EST 2010 i586 
GNU/Linux
Distro: Ubuntu 10.04
Symptoms: rare (once in tens of hours) freezes for arbitrary amounts of time 
during significant network and hard-drive activity

Suspecting this might be a HD problem, I switched to a spare HD (dd'ed
the file system) only to find that the problem persists. Until today's
miracle I didn't even have any output from my headless box, but today
the box unfroze after almost *4 days* of being in the frozen state (I
have logs that prove it, in addition to observations). First thing I did
after I noticed that it came alive was dmesg and there was the error
cited above in this bug report [ attached ].

I vaguely recollect that the freezes started with 10.04, although there
were other problems before (network interface dying) [which prompted me
to compile the kernels with hopes of newer network driver fixing
things]. I will test with an earlier kernel and report back -- I
apologize for not doing so before posting: wanted to get another vote
out to this bug sooner rather than later.

lspci [useless? the only possibly relevant entries are these, but there exists 
an SATA interface... ]:

[Bug 463983] Re: error upgrading to karmic libc6 : ldconfig failed with 'illegal instruction'

2010-11-02 Thread Alexei Colin
Check with gdb what's the Illegal instruction:
$ gdb /path/to/bad/ldconfig.real
> run -V [ I assume even ldconfig.real -V fails ]
Starting program: /path/to/bad/ldconfig.real -V
Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
0x0806a7ae in ?? ()
> info reg eip
eip0x806a7ae0x806a7ae [example output]
> x/4b 0x806a7ae [ view the memory at address where eip is at obtained above ]
0x806a7ae:  0x0f0x45 0xc2 0xc3 [example output]

In this example, the illegal instruction is 0f 45 : cmovne.
This is a real case: that's what I see on my Xcore86 (x586) CPU, on upgrade to 
libc-bin_2.12.1-0ubuntu8_i386 (attempted but failed upgrade from Ubuntu 10.04 
to 10.10). Apparently, very sadly, Maverick dropped support for x586 ( 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/ReleaseNotes#Linux%20kernel%202.6.35 ).

Hope somebody someday might find this useful.
