[Bug 54750] Cannot install libgtk2.0-dev on Dapper.

2006-07-31 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libgtk2.0-dev

I have attempted to do this various ways, including downgrading packages
to make things match, but ultimately, if this is downgraded, synaptic
will attempt to uninstall the entire (useful) system.

I had this problem with glib and pango, as well, but I am including the
pango portion in here, because it is the reason that this package will
not install.

Thank you.  I did not realize that it wound up being disabled, but
somehow or another it did.

I re-added it back to the sources.list file and everything seems to work
again, which is good.  I apologize for the ignorant bug report—I was too
confused to know where to look, since it seemed to be getting some
software and not others.

[Bug 2961] Re: Default Monospace font in gedit is too big

2006-08-05 Thread Michael Trausch
This bug is still not fixed, actually.  It is rather old and is affected
by the upstream source code.  There is an open bug in the GNOME
bugtracker that is still open on this issue—it is the same issue and yet
a different one, so I am not sure if a new bug should be opened or not.
The reasonable default should be that gedit should use the default
system monospace font so that it can be consistent with the
profile/theme of the system.

[Bug 46613] Re: Always prints A4 paper

2006-08-06 Thread Michael Trausch
I am having this issue on my system as well.  The printer that I have is
a Lexmark E240, which uses the PCL 6/PCL XL driver.  I select “US
Letter” both for “PageRegion” and “Paper Size” in the gnome-cups-manager
applicaton.  However, every time I print the test page, it is sending it
to the printer as A4, and the bottom of the page is not visible because
it runs off the paper.  The laser printer control panel on the front
reports an error—page is too long for paper—and after every “long page”
that is printed a button has to be hit on the printer control panel.

I only found out that this was the problem when I inadvertantly tried
switching to the E210 driver, which uses a different printing protocol
entirely.  The top of the output contained:

“$PJL JOB START
$PJL RESOLUTION = 600
$PJL COPIES = 1
$PJL PAGE A4 AUTO
$PJL BITMAP START”

… before launching into a stream of GDI that went on until I could reset
the printer.

Printing pages from application software, such as Mozilla Firefox, does
not work properly, either.

Another weird problem with this is that the top margin—no matter the
printer driver or version of PCL attempted—is not in sync with what it
should be on the paper.  The absolute top of page is approximately 1"
from the top of the paper, and left and right sides are about 0.3"-0.4"
in from the side.  The printer is capable of printing to the edge of the
paper, so I am not sure why it is behaving like this.

I do apologize that I do not have any more data to offer other than
this.  If anything extra is needed, please let me know what it is and
how to obtain the information, so that I can put it together for this
report—this bug is really important to me!

[Bug 46613] Re: Always prints A4 paper

2006-08-06 Thread Michael Trausch
A sidebar—I have always found it amazing that once you give up on
something, the solution kind of appears right in front of you.  In the
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=4235"; title="How
to change default paper size - Always prints in A4 - Ubuntu
Forums">Ubuntu forums there is an answer to at least my problem.
The file /etc/papersize by default has a setting of “a4”.

My problem was fixed by:

* Changing “a4” in the /etc/papersize file to read “letter”.
* Removing the printer.
* Adding the printer back.

The test page now appears right, and all of the margins are correct.

This brings to mind an interesting question:  Is A4 a reasonable default
size?  Or, is there a way to have a “country based” default setting?
Say, a user designates in the installer program that he or she is in the
New York timezone in the United States, should the setting be toggled to
US Letter?  I don’t directly know of anyone in the US that uses A4
paper, since Letter is the standard here.

[Bug 2961] Re: Default Monospace font in gedit is too big

2006-08-09 Thread Michael Trausch
This doesn’t make any sense.  It should simply be the default monospace
font.  If the default terminal font is too small for a user, than should
that not just be adjusted instead, system-wide?

The issue here is that the application does not follow the expected
convention.  Is this not about usability?  Should the applications not
follow expected conventions so that they are usable.  For that matter,
other GNOME software does the same thing—Anjuta, Bluefish, and
others—where one has to tweak the settings *for* *each* *application*.
This is a usability nightmare!

[Bug 58689] keymap not (completely) honored

2006-09-03 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xterm

When using xterm under Edgy, the xterm does not completely honor the
settings for the keymap that I am using.  I was previously (with Dapper)
using the us-intl keymap, but I am now using the "U.S. English
Alternative international (former us_intl)" keymap.  When I attempt to
type the ' character, I actually get ´ (immediately) instead of the
ability to type the ' key and a space to get the apostrophe.  This means
that I cannot type characters like é any longer in an xterm, so I cannot
type the word résumé, for example.

I actually just ran into a problem with emacs-snapshot-gtk that may show
that this is something of a wider problem; but I cannot say that it is
global, because so far, xterm and emacs-snapshot-gtk are the only two
packages that seem to exhibit the behavior.  I have had to revert to
using the emacs21-nox package so that I can edit source code again...
that makes me sad.  :-(  (Regular emacs does not work either; I have to
use the -nox version, or unset $DISPLAY so that I can use the regular
emacs package.)

You may want to take a look at bug 58492 which talks about this bug but

[Bug 59543] Unicode keyboard entry no longer works

2006-09-08 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

In Edgy, I am unable to enter Unicode code points directly as I was able
to do in Dapper.  I cannot find any information on this, so I am not
able to assume that a new system has been developed for Unicode
character entry.

For example, using Dapper, I was able to type Ctrl+Shift+2122 to produce
the Trademark (tm) symbol, Ctrl+Shift+3c0 to produce the pi character,
and Ctrl+Shift+2014 for the em dash.  These no longer work under Edgy.

I do not have the slightest clue as to what package to report this bug
against, so I am sorry that it is currently not associated with
anything.

[Bug 59543] Re: Unicode keyboard entry no longer works

2006-09-08 Thread Michael Trausch
Oops.  Okay.  A user of my local lug pointed out that it is now
Control+Shift+u, where  is the character code point.

However, this does not work in some applications (notably, emacs-
snapshot-gtk and xterm).  IIRC, the old system worked before with those;
so the real issue more likely than not that it just does not work in
those applications.  I will change the report itself to reflect that.

** Summary changed:

- Unicode keyboard entry no longer works
+ Unicode keyboard entry does not work in multiple applications

** Description changed:

- In Edgy, I am unable to enter Unicode code points directly as I was able
- to do in Dapper.  I cannot find any information on this, so I am not
- able to assume that a new system has been developed for Unicode
- character entry.

You can restart it manually.  It has taken me as many as five attempts
to get it to run and stay running.  Other than that, the best solution
is a complete restart.  I haven’t the faintest idea why it is behaving
this way, though.

To restart it manually, just press Alt+F2 to bring up the “Run” dialog,
and type “gnome-settings-daemon”.  If it stays running, you do not have
to try again.  :-P

[Bug 71156] Acceleration fails to work with Dual-Head configuration.

2006-11-09 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-i810

This is a problem with the version of X.org distributed with Edgy; X.org
claims in their bug that it is something to be fixed with the upcoming
X11R7 7.2.0 release.

The problem is that 3D acceleration does not work (and crashes the X
server with a signal 11 if use is attempted) when the i810 driver is
using a dual-head configuration as would be used on a laptop computer.
The machine that I am using is a Toshiba Satellite A55-S1064 with the
Intel 915GM graphics chipset hardware.

Will attach the upstream bug report, which contains more information.

[Bug 66332] HTML Preference does not apply itself to newsgroups

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

The HTML handling preference (found in Edit -> Preferences ->
Composition -> General -> Send Options -> Text Format) does not apply
itself for posts to an NNTP server.

The first message posted to an NNTP server asks for what it should do
(Text?  Text+HTML? HTML only?), and subsequent posts go as text only,
even when the setting is "Send in HTML anyway" in the above preference

More details -- It seems that the actual pattern is that when a message
is sent using Control+Enter, it bypasses the dialog and sends text.

It needs to send HTML only, anyway, according to my preferences.  :-/

On an HP Pavilion Slimline s7700n computer, the sound driver does not
sense when I plug in headphones to the jack in the front.  The hardware
has the capability of sensing when a jack is plugged in/unplugged to the
headphone jack, as Windows mutes the rear audio output when a headphone
is plugged in.  The current setup in Feisty has a switch to disable the
headphone jack, but nothing to monitor that jack for the headphone being
plugged in to mute the main audio output.  I am wondering if it is
because it is detecting the ALC883 as an ALC888, which it is not.

This problem exists both in the Feisty ALSA driver, and the driver that
is presently (as of yesterday) in release candidate status from the ALSA
people.

It may also be prudent to note that I went through the sources to find
all of the “model=” options for the driver for my chipset, and I did try
them all, as well as the “model=ref” option.  None of these options
changed the behavior of the card in any noticeable fashion, though the
mixer controls changed (but the new options that showed up with some of
the options failed to do anything useful, as well).

Indeed it is.  I just printed a single page mail, and did not get the

I think that the bug can now be tagged "Fix Released, if others can

If there are, they aren't on the web sites that I have looked at (from
the vendor of the card and the PC).

It's alright, though; I wound up just running wires.  The only driver
that works correctly can't be used/controlled by NetworkManager.  It's a
native one written by the company (and available on their site).  The
(beta!) driver currently shipping with Ubuntu doesn't work at all unless
the PC has been in Windows Vista for an init first, though.  Or using
the older Linux driver.  But, all of that is just too much a hassle.
*shrugs*

I'd love to help with development, if only I knew how on these issues.

Indeed.  Letter, as expected on my system.  It just tries to print
outside of the hardware-enforced paper margins (which on my laser

q, and y, for example).

That might work for you, but it does not work for me:  My printer throws
an error any time it detects that the application is trying to print
outside of the hard range for whatever page type is currently in the
feeder.

Unfortunately for me, the local Wal*Mart doesn't carry A4 paper.  If
they did...

I would buy it.  Just to work around this bug.

[Bug 139815] Firefox/Thunderbird seemingly randomish crashes

2007-09-15 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

I am not sure which package to file this bug against; it exhibits itself
both in Firefox and Thunderbird, running on a fully-up-to-date Gutsy
installation.  The following three packages/libraries are in both
backtraces:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/libnspr4.so.0d
libnspr4-0d: /usr/lib/libnspr4.so.0d
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -S /lib/libpthread.so.0
libc6: /lib/libpthread.so.0
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ dpkg -S /lib/libc.so.6
libc6: /lib/libc.so.6
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ 

So, I am not sure if this is a libc6 bug or a libnspr4 bug.  Or maybe
something else altogether.

Anyway, when running Firefox or Thunderbird, I get this same crash.  In
Thunderbird, I do not know how to reproduce the crash without having my
profile installed; I can't reproduce the TB crash with a clean profile.
However, in Firefox, the crash is easy to reproduce:  Go to Preferences
(Edit→Preferences) and it crashes every time for me, whether in my
profile or a freshly created one.

More information coming directly in the form of attachments.

This is fixed by the backports that have been done by Neatchee and
myself of Pidgin to Feisty.  http://www.trausch.us/pidgin for
instructions on how to acquire the software, or build yourself should
you desire that route, as well.  I have been using the packages for as
long as we've had them backported, which has been awhile now.  It is
lots more stable—I haven't run into a crash yet in any of the 2.x series

not all) of the available plugins from Gutsy.

Sebastien-- That's why we do not GPG sign the packages, and make the
users think about using unofficial packages.  However, we also provide
instructions for performing the backports.

This would not have been necessary if Pidgin were to have been
backported as requested months ago, however.  Doing the actual backport
itself is trivial, and is a self-contained upgrade built from the actual
Gutsy source repository; the upgrade path is clean, should Ubuntu decide
to release official package for Feisty, or users upgrade to Gutsy.  We
made sure of this.

[Bug 105249] Screensaver comes on while playing Battle for Wesnoth

2007-04-10 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: wesnoth

Firstly, this may be a regression or recurrence of bug 32457.

When playing “Battle for Wesnoth” in Feisty (and using both the keyboard
and the mouse) in full-screen mode, the screen saver attempts to come
on.  It seems that it thinks that I am idle and not using the computer,
when in fact I am playing the game.

This does not seem to happen when the game is not in full-screen mode.

When the screen saver comes on, it kicks the game out of full-screen
mode, and stops coming on when I move the mouse or to something else.
However, it does not restore the full-screen game; I have to click once
on the task bar to minimize the game, and then click again to restore
it.  Upon restore, the game becomes full-screen again.  (I can't click
the minimize button because it is off the screen; when I play in full-
screen mode, I use my monitor’s native resolution, 1440x900, which is
the same resolution that I have my desktop configured to use.)

To reproduce, set the screen saver timeout to be five minutes, and play
“Battle for Wesnoth” for longer than five minutes in full-screen mode.

[Bug 105261] Feature Request: Right-click to erase/format removable read-write media

2007-04-10 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubuntu-desktop

This is a request for behavior similar to that found in Windows XP and
Windows Vista regarding the treatment of removable devices that are
read-write in nature.

When such devices are put in (e.g., a CD-RW is placed into the drive, or
a SD card is inserted into a built-in SD reader on the computer), they
are automatically mounted and a new Nautilus window is presented to the
user for the device.  However, there are no options to erase/blank CD-
RWs, or format removable USB or SD card storage devices.  ATM, one must
open a terminal and manually unmount the device(s) in question and
commence blanking or formatting manually, using wodim or mkfs and
friends.

Optionally, there should be a related option for USB/SD card/etc. type
devices to allow their partition tables to be easily changed.  Ideally,
all of these options should be present in context menus within Nautilus.

It does not seem possible to have a Nautilus Script handle this in all
situations, because it does not seem that it passes the directory value
for items right-clicked under “Computer”.  It should probably look at
whatever is being right-clicked and, if it is in “Computer”, see if (a)
it has media present, (b) if so, is it read-write, and (c) what type of
media is it.  Then it should present the relevant options (“Blank CD-
RW”, “Blank DVD-RW”, “Format SD Card”, “Format USB drive”, etc.) and
start a program to handle the option.  In the case of blanking RW
optical media, it should merely be a small status window that shows how
far along the process is, and estimated time remaining, probably calling
wodim to handle the blanking itself.

http://www.askdavetaylor.com/0-blog-pics/windows-format-disk-options.png
has a picture of what the Windows formatting window looks like; it might
be useful in modeling an applet to do the same job under Ubuntu, with
the added ability to find out what mkfs.* utilities are installed and
present options for formatting filesystems with them.

[Bug 105370] [apport] gaim crashed with SIGSEGV in realloc()

2007-04-10 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gaim

There seem to be a lot of problems with this software.  I know that I
have submitted a problem in the past myself, but this one seems
different.  It crashes far more frequently than on my laptop (the
difference being that the laptop is a uniprocessor 32-bit system, and
this is a dual-core AMD64 system).  Usually, it seems to crash right
after I receive notification that someone has signed on, which comes
through gaim-festival and gaim-libnotify.

OTOH, it does not happen *every* time this happens, but when it does
happen, it seems to happen within 10 seconds of the notification being
issued, reasonably predictably.  I cannot go through all of the GAIM
bugs to figure out which is what, but I have the feeling that whoever is
flagging those issues will know if this is truly a dup or not.  If it
is, sorry for the dup bug.

[Bug 89189] Re: Some windows do not render with "Desktop Effects" enabled on some hardware

2007-04-10 Thread Michael Trausch
That sounds like an issue with i810.  I know that I have had that
problem (with various other things, not directly with Desktop Effects)
on an i810 setup with my Toshiba laptop.  For example, sometimes
switching from dual-head to single-head and back would make it so that a
reboot was required before the X server would start back up again.
X.org 7.2 seemed to fix most of those problems, though.  Just a comment
on the situation.

[Bug 104382] Re: Wireless rt73usb requires Windows init and performs quite poorly

2007-04-11 Thread Michael Trausch
I found a workaround!  Well, actually “rausb0” in #ubuntu on Freenode
did.  At least, it is a partial workaround.

There is a file, http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/rt73-cvs-daily.tar.gz
from the http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php/Downloads page,
which fixes this issue.  The rt73 driver both initializes the device
from a cold-start (e.g., power removed) without Vista having to init the
hardware, and it also restores the expected performance and
functionality (no packets disappear into the ether!).

The only downside is that NetworkManager absolutely refuses to manage
the device.  I don't know why it refuses, I just know that it doesn’t
work.  It does not detect the wireless networks, offer to set them up,
or even handle a static configuration when placed in
/etc/network/interfaces.  So, there is something definitely wrong there.
If both of these drivers could be combined, the result would be
perfection!  :)

[Bug 86426] Re: Printing fails to correctly render on page (print preview, too)

2007-04-11 Thread Michael Trausch
If multiple users are having the problem, is that good enough to get the
bug marked “confirmed”?  This isn’t a problem that should be permitted
for the release.  I know that the release is scheduled for one week and
one day from now, but Evolution is a major, major component of the
overall Ubuntu system.  If nothing else, from a user standpoint, it
should work correctly.  Printing might not be something that more
technically knowledgeable users do terribly often, but I know some
people whose e-mail filing system is “print it all out and put it in a
filing cabinet.”  As much as that makes me shudder, I do have the
occasional need to print a message, and typically, that message is not
less than one page in length, so it is subject to lossage on paper
because of this issue.

Is there any way to have this fixed by or shortly after the release?  Is
there any more information that would be useful in attempting to get
this problem figured out?  It is easily reproduceable, by opening a mail
message in Evolution longer than one printed page and attempting to
print it or preview it.  If it matters, my configuration is to use
letter-sized paper, not A4.  Also, the problem is reproduceable on
printers other than my laser printer; it does the same for my locally
connected ink jet printer, too.

All of my settings across the board here are for letter printers,
including /etc/papersize on both the client printing system and the
print server.  The drivers are also configured to use letter printing by
default, so unless there is another setting hidden somewhere... I don't
know.  What I do know is that it shows the print preview on a piece of
letter paper, but in the print preview window, it runs off the bottom.
It is almost as if the margin setting were negative, but I cannot find
anything in my configuration to corroborate that notion.

Understandable.  If I were competent enough to do anything on the
programming side of things, I would be more than happy to help.  I still
poke around when I find things, though I have yet to contribute
anything.  Most things I encounter are things that I have not the
slightest clue what would cause the failure, even if I can narrow things
down to the component and get good with providing debugging info... :-)

In any case, if I knew where to even begin on some of these bugs, I
would be happy to knock them out of the way.  This and bug 104382, which
not everyone would feel comfortable working around, are bugs that I
would love to know how to fix.  :-(

2007-09-21 Thread Michael Trausch
Indeed it does.  Sorry that I didn't see the response to this far
earlier.

In fact, handling has gotten worse in newer releases of Thunderbird.  I
was driven to Evolution, and then driven away from that again by its
various quirks.  Back at Thunderbird now, which is even worse than it
used to be in this department.  It seems that preferences in Thunderbird
are just guidelines that can be moved aside if it's not convenient for
the application.

I hope that the new Evolution that was just released for GNOME 2.20 will
make it worth my while to not have to roll my own mail/PIM software.

As I noted above, I tried all of the possible options, and none of them
helped.  The exact models I tried are (from
linux-source-2.6.20/sound/pci/hda/patch-realtek.c starting at line 132):

/* ALC883 models */
enum {
ALC883_3ST_2ch_DIG,
ALC883_3ST_6ch_DIG,
ALC883_3ST_6ch,
ALC883_6ST_DIG,
ALC883_TARGA_DIG,
ALC883_TARGA_2ch_DIG,
ALC888_DEMO_BOARD,
ALC883_ACER,
ALC883_MEDION,
ALC883_LAPTOP_EAPD,
ALC883_AUTO,
ALC883_MODEL_LAST,
};

... AND I tried the model=ref option, which is not in this list but is
elsewhere in the source, which can be found by (whitespace edited to
wrap better):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/sound/pci/hda$ grep ref *|grep \"
patch_sigmatel.c:   { .modelname = "ref",
patch_sigmatel.c:   { .modelname = "ref",
patch_sigmatel.c:   { .modelname = "ref",
patch_sigmatel.c:   { .modelname = "ref",
patch_sigmatel.c:   { .modelname = "ref",

patch_sigmatel.c:  "available, default to model=ref\n");

patch_sigmatel.c:  "available, default to model=ref\n");
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/sound/pci/hda$ 

I can't remember the place in the source that maps the constants defined
to the strings used for model=, but they are as you can probably see
above close enough to see what the strings are for the options.

  Thanks,
  Mike

Alrighty, I can try the .14 version again; hopefully, it will give me
diff. results than .14-RC4 did.

Will report back with status after installing/testing.

No change in behavior—“front” still controls ALL volume, and when I plug
in headphones, it still does not sense it.  The only thing that adding
that option does is prevent the following message from appearing in the
kernel ring buffer:

[   16.964000] hda_codec: Unknown model for ALC883, trying auto-probe
from BIOS...

Thanks for the idea to try the new ALSA though.  It would appear that it
is still an open issue.

2007-06-20 Thread Michael Trausch
Just filed a bug yesterday (sadly, I did not find /this/ bug until
today) that is a dup of this one - bug 121294).  I have a small
screencast showing the problem with an OTF font that I recently acquired
myself.  It's a shame, because the font is really good looking, IMHO.

Is there any way to make OOo use the font rendering that comes with
Ubuntu?  IIRC, OOo uses a lot of its own private copies of shared libs
and that is one reason that it has other issues, as well, including
increased memory usage because it isn't sharing with the libs that the
rest of the system is using.

[Bug 89884] Re: Giant memory leak

2007-04-25 Thread Michael Trausch
Wow.  I just spent some time searching on this, because it appears to be
using nearly 1 GiB of memory on my system.  I was investigating why I
have swap memory being used (407,548k of it!) when my system shouldn’t
be swapping out to disc.  I am wondering if this might be some of the
problems that have been reported with GAIM crashing.  I know that I run
it all the time, and isn’t there a limitation on how large a process’
memory space can be?  That might be the cause of some of the stranger
sig11 deaths that have been reported.  Anyway, “top” reports the
following on my system.  The output from top, by the way, is organized
by the “VIRT” column:

This might be an obvious question, but I cannot see why any of these
processes are using this much memory.  I know that some of this memory
(as I understand it, the memory in the SHR column) is shared with other
processes for things like shared libs and the like.  Assuming that this
is correct, there is 951-12=939m of system resources that GAIM is using…

Is there a resource that anyone knows of, by the way, for finding out or
reasonably estimating what a process’ memory footprint *should* be?  I
have a system that has 876 MB of RAM, and it should be very happy with
the things that I do on it in that configuration.  Granted, Windows
Vista is even *more* memory intensive with just its core system and runs
like lead, but that’s neither here nor there.  I am going to Google some
more on this one (re estimating reasonable footprints), but if someone
knows the answer to that, I would appreciate that, too.

[Bug 29622] Re: Many web browsers not print the headers and footers.

2007-05-01 Thread Michael Trausch
Alright.  Well, this has been one of those issues that has been around
forever—and not just in this distribution, but in any other distribution
that I have used (everything from Slackware on up).

I have two printers, an HP DeskJet, and a Lexmark E240 PCL printer.
Both of them print perfectly using Firefox under Windows {insert version
here}.  Literally, everything from Windows 98 to Windows Vista can do
this correctly.

However, when I print from Firefox under Linux, the header and the
footer from Firefox are cut off.  This is not a printer restriction, and
the location is the same under Linux as it is under Windows.  It just
doesn't doesn't print under Linux.  There are no settings that I can
find in CUPS regarding changing its perception of the hard margin, which
in the case of both printers is nearly the entire page size.

The most I can say with absolute certainty is that (a) Windows gets it
right, (b) No Linux distribution I have used (Slackware, Red Hat,
Fedora, Gentoo, Ubuntu) gets it right, (c) the bug is almost certainly
not in Firefox, because CUPS cuts off the header on both printers such
that a part of it shows up and the rest of it is clearly within the
printer hardware's printable range.

Perhaps I can scan a couple of copies of things I have printed on both
printers with identical settings, along with the output from print to
file, and along with the same things printed from Windows.  I am going
to need to find some time to do that, however.

As a point of record, even the Ubuntu test page does not print within
that area that the Firefox header/footer prints in; but the printer is
capable of it.

It would seem, then, that the problem is really that CUPS either does
not know that it can print there, or that the PPD is flawed in some way,
or that there are assumptions being made elsewhere in the system that
determine what can and cannot be printed.  Presumably, this means that
my HP DeskJet which supports "borderless" printing probably does not
support that under my current configuration under Ubuntu.  I've not the
$$ to test that theory, though.

[Bug 121882] MonoDevelop locks up waiting for "futex" (or, My MonoDevelop Just Became a Really CPU-Intensive Clock)

2007-06-23 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

While using MonoDevelop on Ubuntu Feisty, completely updated as of
23-Jun-07 15:22 UTC, when renaming a project, MonoDevelop hangs,
apparently waiting on a "futex".

I am able to reproduce this bug 100% of the time so far:

 1.  Load a solution with at least one project into MonoDevelop.
 2.  Right click on the project name to rename the project, and type in a new 
name.
 3.  Lose control of MonoDevelop, requiring a Force Quit from Nautilus or a 
kill -15 from the terminal.

Will attach strace output shortly.

Ahh, that would be nice.  Unfortunately, I don't know that it would be
possible given the way that X11 works.  Each screen connected and active
(using "standard" multiple display support) is a different $DISPLAY all
of its own.  This means that it should be autonomous, for example with
the tray notification areas in each window.  Some programs (such as
Metacity) can share information between both displays because it is
specifically written to be aware of how to handle them.

If you open a terminal on each screen, you'll notice that the $DISPLAY
on the first one is :0.0 and on the second one is :0.1---which means
that you can do something like:

$ DISPLAY=:0.1 firefox

... in a terminal on your primary display, and it will bring Firefox up
on the second display (that is, assuming that you do not have an already
running Firefox on the first display; there is a bug somewhere in
Launchpad for that issue, too).

In thinking about it, it seems that the multiple-display issues should
be abstracted at a lower-level, perhaps such as GTK+, so that all GTK+
applications are automatically aware of multiple X11 screens and able to
take advantage of them in a consistent manner.  Right now, as I
understand it, each application that wants to be aware of multiple X11
screens has to be taught to be aware of them independently.

Workspaces are a Window Manager concept, not so much an X11 concept.  It
depends on what level the thing takes place at... applications connect
to a $DISPLAY, and the window manager running on $DISPLAY then decorates
the window for the application, at its most basic.

You can even have different WMs on :0.0 and :0.1 if you want—it gives
people room to really customize things, which is why I like the layout.
Even so, there are some issues; like this bug, like the fact that
Epiphany and Firefox cannot be run on both displays at the same time,
and so forth. (Then again, for at least Firefox, anyway, the same
applies to different X11 sessions entirely; if you have :0.0 and :1.0
running for the same user, at least FF will error telling you that an
instance is already running somewhere else.)

This autonomousity lends itself to being quite flexible.  Of course, the
flexibility comes at the cost of the application-layer logic having to
do slightly more to deal with it.  I think that the way it works
currently (at least in this respect) is a good thing, and besides, one
distribution of the GNU/Linux system wouldn't dare change that—it would
break compatibility with everything else, and take away some of the
wonderful features of X11, like the ability to remote it without using
something like VNC.

That's why I think it should probably be done in the GTK+ layer.  The
more I think about it, the more that I think that a different bug should
be opened with the goal of doing this.  Then again, IANAD, at least not
for this project, and so my opinion matters quite little.  :-)

Yes, it is still an issue with Feisty Fawn; there are even additional
comments on the upstream bug about that.

It seems that this is going to be one of those stubborn issues...
perhaps a bug asking that GTK+ be fixed would be better?  Do you have
any insight on that, Sebastien?

[Bug 81170] Re: [feisty] etodo conduit times out when syncing with a palm device

2007-06-24 Thread Michael Trausch
+1 User Affected

Using Feisty (7.04), fully updated, and a Palm V device using a serial
connection as well as USB connection on the main PC.

EToDo goes from the PC -> Palm, but not the other way, it seems, at
least in my case.  I failed to save the crash, however... is another one
needed?  If so, I believe that I can trigger the bug again by backing up
my Palm and doing a reset on it, because when I attempted the first
sync, it was with all of the default things on the Palm.

[Bug 122321] GNOME “Create Document” f ails with NFS-mounted $HOME

2007-06-26 Thread Michael Trausch
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Prior to moving my $HOME to an NFS server on my home network, I made
*extensive* use of the Create Document template functionality accessible
by right-clicking on the desktop or in any folder and selecting “Create
Document”, and then the type of the document that I wanted to create
from a template.

However, now that $HOME is NFS-mounted, “Create Document” no longer
works.  The menu shows up, and I can select items from it, but it never
copies the template from ~/Templates; I have to do this manually now.

If I go back to not using NFS, it works again.  However, the whole
reason I have NFS is to exist with NIS and make it so that I have SSO
capability on my home network; one copy of $HOME, etc.

I have done this many times over the time since I installed Feisty's
testing releases, using both gnome-print-manager and the command line
(lpadmin) to work with the printer.  It has no effect; you'll notice
that the PDF print preview that Evolution generates is affected by the
same problem.  It would appear, given this, that the problem is
somewhere in Evolution's page generation mechanisms, but I certainly
cannot navigate the source to find out—it's huge, and I would have no
clue what to look for.

You know, I really should not forget to include that every time.  I seem
to be forgetting it more and more, lol.

I am using Feisty, completely up-to-date.

There is also (and I am not sure if this would be related or a new,
different bug) one other quirk with an NFS-mounted home:  Moving files
around from one folder to another (e.g., ~/Desktop to ~/Documents) now
requires the middle-click-and-drag to be done; when you DnD files, it
copies by default instead of moving like it does with locally mounted
filesystems.

My major question is, "Why is GNOME treating the NFS any differently
than a locally mounted filesystem?"  I suppose that not doing some
things is alright—like not thumbnailing every picture or previewing
every document—but why is moving broken, and why is the document
creation feature broken?  That doesn't make sense to me.

[Bug 86426] Re: MASTER: [Feisty] Evolution always tries to print A4

2007-06-27 Thread Michael Trausch
Well...

I just backported the Evolution from Gutsy to my system, and I am
slightly disappointed.

The paper size is fixed... but the other problems that are shown in the
PDF that I attached (the printing running off the page, the extra page
at the end) are not fixed.  If Gutsy were to be released tomorrow, it's
Evolution would be broken, too, it looks like.  I used Prevu to do the
backporting.

Attached is the PDF that Evolution generated for the print preview for a
newer CERT e-mail.  I just did this today.

I am not sure that it is a different bug... I would guess that it is the
result of running-over on the previous pages, and assuming that it needs
another page of output.  It could be a different bug, I suppose, but I
think that if the printing issues are fixed with regard to actually
printing on the page as it is supposed to, that the extra page will
disappear.

It looks like it has already been filed, though—see bug 94774.

[Bug 119604] Re: gnucash segfaults on investment entry

2007-06-28 Thread Michael Trausch
I am getting the very same segfault and was just about to report this
bug, as well.  In my case, I was creating a new expense account.

I cannot provide a very helpful backgrace because there do not appear to
be any debugging symbols in the repository.  If someone can point me to
those, I can generate a backtrace.  I am hesitant to send a core dump to
the public bugtrackers for obvious reasons; if there is someone who
works officially with this package within Canonical and has a GnuPG key,
I will be happy to send a core dump encrypted via GnuPG to that person
privately.

The upstream issue was resolved as a duplicate of

I don’t know if that should just be replaced in the tracker above or

[Bug 96069] Re: gtkhtml-stock-test-url icon missing in the insert link dialog

2007-04-07 Thread Michael Trausch
The button used to have an icon.  It is a new problem with Feisty.  I
was just about to file this bug myself, because it is rather annoying;
the button doesn't have a real description, which would likely be
sufficient even if there is no icon with it.  See the attached
screenshot.

2007-04-07 Thread Michael Trausch
I am going to go out on a limb and confirm that this happens, since
someone else reported the problem.  I’ve attached the screenshot
displaying the issue as evidence of it.  The only thing that I am not
sure of is if the bug is in Evolution or gtkhtml3.14.
