[Bug 235878] Re: Incorrect case for a folder path on a fat-formated volume creates a duplicate folder

2008-11-10 Thread MikeMLP
This bug is still present in Intrepid final.  Please re-open.

Easy steps to re-create:

1. mount a fat-formatted volume

2. create a folder with a capitalized name, (put a subfolder or file
within the folder -optional)

3. change the folder name to lower-case in the nautilus path, and hit
enter

4. watch 2 folders appear in tree view, one with the capitalized name,
one with the lower-case name.

(See the video, the formal steps at the top of the page.  The same steps
apply to Intrepid).

[Bug 195051] Re: X freezes in drmCommandWrite() when Compiz is enabled on ATI Radeon Mobility 9600

2008-05-19 Thread MikeMLP
I have a laptop with a radeon mobility 9600, and I would like to check
to see if the "Option 'AccelMethod' 'EXA'" workaround works over here.
How do I override the blacklist and enable Compiz on this laptop?  I am
running Hardy.

[Bug 235878] [NEW] Incorrect case for a folder path on a fat-formated volume creates a duplicate folder

2008-05-29 Thread MikeMLP
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

See video:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1fsngMKQyU
See also forum thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=805971

Bug is in: Ubuntu 8.04
(Assumed) Package: nautilus 1:2.22.3-0ubuntu1

Rationale:

Fat filesystems are not case-sensitive, and are not compliant with Unix
naming conventions.  Fat filesystems are still common on dual-boot
systems and are widely used on USB thumb drives and digital camera
memory cards, and some attention should be given to make sure fat's
limitations are handled gracefully, especially given its continued use.


Expected to happen:


A user has a folder with subfolders and data, called 'Oh-no' on a fat 
filesystem.  The user is working with tree view open on the side panel in 
Nautilus.  The path of the folder is /fat/Oh-no.  The user types the path 
incorrectly, mistaking the case - '/fat/oh-no.'  
Nautilus should: 

A. Ignore the mistake and point to '/fat/Oh-no,' possibly correcting the
path's incorrect case for the user (this is what MS explorer on Windows
XP does.  In Dolphin on KDE 4.1 beta 1, the path is not corrected for
the user, but no unexpected behavior occurs. [see "what happened
instead"]).

-Or-

B. Return an error, saying that '/fat/oh-no' does not exist (as it does
does not, using strict case-sensitivity).


What happened instead:


In tree view, on the left hand side pane, a second folder appears.  Both 
'/fat/Oh-no' and 'fat/oh-no' are visible.  Both appear to contain identical 
subfolders and files, though only one copy of the data exists.

Why this bug should be fixed:  
The creation of a duplicate folder invites the user to press "delete" to remove 
the redundant files.  Yet there is only one copy of the data.  Nautilus 
misrepresents the data on the drive, compounding user mistakes.

[Bug 235878] Re: Incorrect case for a folder path on a fat-formated volume creates a duplicate folder

2008-06-13 Thread MikeMLP
That is unfortunate.  Now that I am aware of this behavior, it is easy
enough to work around, I just wish that I hadn't learned by losing data.
The only thing I can suggest is to try again with upstream.  Perhaps
"bump" the message on the 16th, 1 week from original posting.  It may
have gotten lost among pre-existing discussions of ongoing debate on the
list.


On the mailing list, you said, "I've noticed this bug has been reported in the 
past, and that on the bug-page it was mentioned that if this bug were to show 
up again to e-mail the list."  Do you have a link to the past bug report in 
Gnome's bugzilla?  Linking to the bugzilla report that you saw might also be 
helpful to anyone considering a response on the mailing list, if you choose to 
"bump."

Out of curiosity, I notice that this bug is marked "incomplete."  I am
unsure of the criteria for each of the various "status" options, so I'm
imagining, without having all of the information, what is required to
change a bug's status from "incomplete" to "confirmed."  Does it require
several users to notice the same behavior?  If so, then another user has
reported identical behavior in the forum post that I have linked to in
the original report.  Does it require that upstream acknowledge the bug?
If so, then it seems we are back to waiting for the nautilus mailing
list.

I think this scenario is pretty easy to duplicate, but please let me
know if any additional information is required, and I will be happy to
assist.

Finally, one additional note:  If one follows the youtube video exactly,
deleting /fat/oh-no, and causing /fat/Oh-no to be deleted, if one then
decides to create a new folder, /fat/Oh-no following the deletion, this
creation of /fat/Oh-no will also "respawn" /fat/oh-no automatically.
The only way that I could find to end this behavior was to log out of
gnome, return to GDM and log back in.  In summary, it appears as though
nautilus "remembers" the duplicate state of a previously deleted folder
affected by this issue while in the same gnome session.  As you might
imagine, this made it take longer to get a "clean" video of this
behavior in action.  I share this anecdote in hopes that it might help
track down the source of the issue.

Thank you both for your efforts, I will check back periodically.

[Bug 108527] Re: X freezes when compiz is enabled on ATI cards

2007-10-17 Thread MikeMLP
Since posting, I have had freezes both with and without the mouse cursor
still able to move.  Usually, the mouse cursor is still able to move,
and usually I am able to reboot with alt+sysrq rseiub.  My uptime is
basically unlimited with effects turned off.  Since I've used Compiz for
over a year without this problem, my best guess is that the bug that I
am experiencing is located within the new version of X in Gutsy.  I wish
I could help pin it down more though.

2007-10-10 Thread MikeMLP
I am also experiencing freezes.  See 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3508187#post3508187
Some users have reported that their mouse cursor still moves.  Mine does not, 
so my symptoms appear to be slightly different.  Uptime when using compiz 
ranges from 1 minute to 23 hours.  Uptime appears to be unlimited when I use 
metacity only.  I have been using Compiz / Beryl / Fusion for over a year, and 
have only experienced freezes like this in Gutsy.  Will try the steps here: 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingXorg and report back.

Unlike the OP, I do not experience any of the further bugs, such as not
being able to minimize windows.  Additionally, I have noticed this bug
in Tribe 5.  I moved back to Feisty for a while, and found the same bug
present in 7.10 Beta.

Limited Specs:
IBM Thinkpad T42
ATI Mobility 9600
AIGLX on Free ATI driver

Please let me know what I can do to help debug.

2007-10-20 Thread MikeMLP
To those of you who were experimenting with different plugins:

I ran a test today, enabling Compiz with _no_ plugins.  Navigation was a
bit difficult, though entirely doable.  The computer froze after several
hours running Compiz with _no_ plugins enabled.  alt sysrq did not work,
and the mouse cursor would not move.

I do not think that the issue lies with Compiz or its plugins.  I am
fairly certain that the issue is with the new version of x.

[Bug 92482] Re: NumLock gets enabled unexpectedly on my laptop

2007-05-24 Thread MikeMLP
Also, my symptoms were slightly different - My numlock light gets stuck
on and the altered keys ('letter' keys which become transformed into
'numeric keys' when numlock is on) will not create any output at all
when pressed, not even the expected numeric output.  The only way to
turn off numlock is to use an external keyboard.  If the computer starts
up with numlock off, and it is turned on by pressing fn+scroll lock,
there is no way to turn it off unless an external keyboard is plugged
in.  My issue may, then, be a separate issue with somewhat similar
symptoms.

 To quote Jingo:
  "Same problem. T42.

  Solved it by disabling gnome's "remember_numlock_state".
  Open up gconf-editor and search for "numlock", and you will see."

I have not tried this solution myself yet, so try at your own risk.

I did a test by running Compiz and turning off _all_ of the plugins
(Window management was slightly difficult :) ).  The machine froze with
_no plugins_ running after a few hours.  I am on a Thinkpad T42 with a
Radeon Mobility 9600.

Right now, my uptime is nearly 8 days (on the same machine) with no
stability problems... but I have all Compiz effects off, and am only
using Metacity.

[Bug 69382] Freeze on audio files when right clicking, Save Link As

2006-10-30 Thread MikeMLP
Public bug reported:

This is a problem with firefox and/or totem mozilla plugin using
gstreamer on K/Ubuntu 6.10

When I click an audio file, such as a podcast on ubuntuos.com, I expect
the save-as dialog to open up.  Instead, the default behavior seems to
be to play the audio embedded in firefox as a totem object.  Not
expecting this behavior, I click the back button, then right click the
same link, and click Save Link As to save the audio file to my HD, and
the Save As box partially appears, and Firefox freezes.

If I re-open firefox and avoid playing the audio directly through totem
with a left click, and instead skip to saving the file with Save Link As
on the right-click menu, Firefox does not freeze, and the Save-As dialog
appears as normal.
