[Bug 446872] Re: gnome-panel keeps disappearing

2010-02-09 Thread Andrew Cowie
Still occuring. New machine, fresh install, nothing copied across.

Same applet family in this single panel : Menu, Workspace Switcher,
Window List, Weather Report, Notification Area, Clock, Window Selector.

Still disappearing periodically.

[Bug 1082232] [NEW] gnome-screensaver 3.6 does not unlock

2012-11-22 Thread Andrew Cowie
Public bug reported:

After sliding the lock screensaver out of the way, either a) the screen
is grey [debian logo] and unresponsive, or b) you get the dialog to
enter your password but keystrokes are not accepted. Only way out is to
reboot.

It's  possible that this is resolved by
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=686800 ;
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688700 was marked a duplicate
of it, though it has a better title. If this is indeed the fix, then an
urgent backport ahead of 3.6.1 would be advisable. Being forced to
reboot after resume from suspend is not really that fun.

[Bug 982831] [NEW] Evolution can't create meeting, reports no backend for VEVENT

2012-04-16 Thread Andrew Cowie
Public bug reported:

I can no longer create meetings or appointments from Evolution! This was
happening in Oneiric, and now that I've upgraded to Precise it's still
broken. An error is reported in the GtkInfoBar it pops up saying

  No backend factory for 'file' of 'VEVENT'

This is moderately horrid. My clients keep asking us to send the meeting
invites, and we can't do it!

[Bug 805747] [NEW] Unnecessary gst-keyboard-xkb appearing in Notification Area when multiple keyboard layouts enabled

2011-07-04 Thread Andrew Cowie
Public bug reported:

Running GNOME3 and enabling a second keyboard layout has caused a
"[broken image] gst-keyboard-xkb" to appear in my Notification Area.

gnome-shell's active layout indicator up next to accessibility and
volume is present and working. But a separate thing, calling itself
"gst-keyboard-xkb" with a menu is incorrectly appearing in the
Notification Area.

The annoying thing in the Notification Area would appear to be related
to the libappindicator3-1 dependency but may be a GtkStatusIcon driven
fallback.

Rebuilding the package to remove the appindicator support patches would
likely fix the issue; that's not the right resolution of course but
upstream does not consider this their problem since it arrises from an
Ubuntu patch.

[Bug 632594] Re: xvfb 1.9 and/or metacity not working on the buildds

2010-10-28 Thread Andrew Cowie
If it's a case of a DBus dependency (and if not, we're swerving off
topic here) then the question is how to run a "private" DBus instance
for the build in question.

I ran into this ~2 years ago in that I had to run a a gnome-settings-
daemon privately under the Xvfb for metacity's themes to work, but that
*broke* when it all moved to DBus because gnome-settings-daemon would
quit with an error saying there already was already such a daemon one on
the bus ... ie, the real Desktop's one!

So how to start a new DBus channel that offers test / build isolation
but which everything running under that (X server?) would find (rather
than the user's real one, I don't know.

Observing this on Maverick. Quite annoying. It's especially common with
menus but happens with tooltips too. The only thing to do is to kill the
parent process.

Can anyone with metacity experience suggest the code path that we should
be looking at?

[Bug 446872] [NEW] gnome-panel keeps disappearing

2009-10-08 Thread Andrew Cowie
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

Periodically, the gnome-panel vanishes. The allocation space on the
desktop remains (windows don't grow larger as they do if you're doing
panel hiding) but the panel itself is gone and the background image
shows through. As far as I can tell, proper applets and notification
area GtkStatusIcons continue running.

This time it happened when when I closed the Weather Applet's "Details"
dialog. But it happens other times, at least once a day. Running
Slashtime [which has a notification area icon] often causes the problem.

The workaround is to issue

$ pkill gnome-panel

which quite readily causes the panel to reappear (after a whole bunch of
maximized windows faffing about thinking they can grow in size, only to
shrink back to normal when the new panel appears).

This is presumably a problem in the upstream code as I occasionally (but
with far less frequency) observed this running GNOME 2.26 on Gentoo.

[Bug 454396] [NEW] [Karmic] when upgrading, gnome-power-manager should not be restarted as root

2009-10-17 Thread Andrew Cowie
*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

It seems that after a package upgrade, suddenly a second gnome-power-
manager is run (resulting in two GtkStatusIcons in the NotificationArea
applet tray) which is wong.

This is bad enough, but far worse is that the second gnome-power-manager
process is being run as root, which is wrong and a security weakness.

The package upgrade should a) not start a new gnome-power-manager
process and b) suggest the user log out and log back int again, thereby
starting a new session and a new gnome-power-manager process.

No. Nothing unusual at all. But it's been happening a lot (I tested a

It's not a Google specific problem. We use a perfectly sound CAcert
certificate and suddenly, on upgrade to Maverick, this warning started
appearing. Really annoying. As stated above, "ignore SSL errors" is not
ideal; there's nothing wrong with the cert. So, maybe there's a problem
with the root certificate chains now, or the GIO code which walks them?

Still occuring. I suppose I should note that it's a composited metacity

matter, but hey.

I keep an eye on ~/.xsession-errors and friends, but so far nothing has
jumped out at me. I'm tempted to grab gnome-panel from jhbuild just to
see if it makes a difference. :/

[Bug 273142] Re: screensaver won't release with mouse movement

2009-09-20 Thread Andrew Cowie
Upgrading from another distro with a fully working GNOME 2.26
installation, now running Ubuntu 'K' with it's 2.27 (about to be 2.28
packages), I am experiencing this problem.

This hardware & GNOME & different distro, the cosmos screensaver
deactivated on mouse movement, but now on Ubuntu (same hardware, same
almost everything) it requires a keystroke to banish the screensaver.

Very jarring.

[Bug 435106] Re: Can't remove software-store from main menu

2009-09-23 Thread Andrew Cowie
Huh? I'm running Karmic. That's where the problem is.

Or, are you saying that the solution is to tell people to uninstall this
"software-store" package?

[Bug 435106] Re: Can't remove software-store from main menu

2009-09-24 Thread Andrew Cowie
Ok, I figured out what I was missing: Alacarte showed the "Software
Store", but over on the right hand side, after Applications (ie not in
any of Applications's immediate subcategories). Because it was showing
in the main menu as a top level (between "System Tools" and "Places") I
had been looking on the *left* hand side for the menu entry to uncheck.

So, not a bug, though perhaps it could be taken as a suggestion on the
discoverability front.

[Bug 24280] Re: applications run through gksu cannot use themes in ~/.themes

2009-10-02 Thread Andrew Cowie
The present behaviour is NOT a good feature. There is no value
whatsoever in having the user experience go from smooth to crap just
because the distro has decided to escallate a program to root
prividledges. The fact that in Ubuntu you have to [graphically or
otherwise] provide [sudo] your password in response to a "you need to
have administrator priviledges to do $this" repeatedly is, I should
think, more than sufficient to warn the user they are escallating.
Making (eg) synptic look terrible afterwards as a "further warning" is
just ridiculous

[Bug 572082] Re: evolution not at current release

2010-05-01 Thread Andrew Cowie
Hm.

So we found https://launchpad.net/~francesco-marella/+archive/unstable-
evolution which of course isn't unstable. It's the latest upstream
release, and since anyone who has a problem with Evo is going to be told
to upgrade to stable 2.30, we're going to get a huge number of people
*long before lucid+1* using this.

Is there a way we can have a current stable evolution release shipped by
Ubuntu? After all, xulrunner has 1.9.1, 1.9.2, etc all present slotted.
Maybe we call it "evolution-lts" and "evolution"?
