[Bug 313341] [NEW] preferred terminal forgets gnome-terminal setting

2009-01-02 Thread Andrew Kay
Public bug reported:

In Ubuntu intrepid:

seems if I change the default terminal and its execute flag, then when I
go back to gnome-terminal it forgets it should use -x.  If I type a
custom command "gnome-terminal" it selects the built-in option without
giving me a chance to change the execute flag back (so the work-around
is to set the execute flag first)

[Bug 786317] Re: wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

2011-06-03 Thread Andrew Kay
more information:

xinput test -proximity

appears to generate matched button 1 press/release, properly nested inside 
proximity in/out
-- so I don't think it's the driver

incscape seems to work ok, so it's probably not gtk+ ??

only gimp :-(

So I can't use gimp.

I agree with Stefan Zeyen.

Although I did always have trouble (since approximately Jaunty!) with
operating menus with the stylus or the mouse, the problem with failure
in the actual painting canvas is brand new in Maverick.

2011-10-16 Thread Andrew Kay
I haven't tried ocelot yet, but on Natty it is only a problem with Unity
-- ie going back to gnome removes the problem.

When you look at the output from "xinput" it seems (and I'm not
experienced here) that the driver is generating the right combination of
ups and downs.

So it seems to be some interaction between unity and some strange
assumption that gimp is making (because I haven't seen any complaints
about similar applications)

[Bug 786317] Re: wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

2011-10-24 Thread Andrew Kay
"up"graded to oneiric ocelot 11.10 (what ARE the Ubuntu people of power
thinking about these days?)

with Unity2D the gimp problem is different (but equally crippling) --
Wacom Intuos 3: when I touch the pad to introduce a stroke (eg brush or
eraser), the gimp appears often to get a signal to draw in the top left
hand corner, or sometimes on the left edge, so I end up with a long
diagonal line or horizontal line, terminating at the real pen position.

Naturally this makes gimp unusable.

Maybe it is relevant that I have the windows set so that focus follows
the cursor, something that makes gimp MUCH nicer to use than it is on a
windows-style click-to-focus. I don't think the Unity team really
understand this mode.

I haven't yet tried with the gnome shell.

2011-10-24 Thread Andrew Kay
thanks Chris -- though the reason I think it's the same bug is that the
solution is the same, ie go back to gnome desktop.  I've now tested it
and it works pretty well on gnome.

(Actually, I still saw the sudden leap to x=0 or y=0 once or twice in
hundreds of test strokes -- it must be some kind of race condition)

(I just get the impression that Unity is nowhere near ready to use for
the mainstream. I don't think any of the features are particularly
helpful, and there are so many things that seem harder to do.  As you
say, eventually things will be sorted out. Meanwhile, I just want to get
on with using the computer to create stuff...!)

cheers
Andrew

2011-10-25 Thread Andrew Kay
I'll have to get back to you on these. I'm still using gimp 2.6, mainly
out of cowardice.

meanwhile, I don't know the difference between "gnome" "gnome shell" "ubuntu 
classic" "unity" "compiz" "metacity"
-- some of them are window managers, some are something else. It's confusing 
and I haven't seen anything that clearly explains what is what or the official 
way to choose between them in ubuntu.  I followed some instructions, but I 
don't know now whether I have gnome or gnome shell...

regards
Andrew

2011-12-27 Thread Andrew Kay
I tried to do some more work this time using Gimp 2.7.3 (compiled myself on 
Xubuntu 11.10 from some instructions)
And using my Wacom intuos 3.

I can confirm that both bugs are still there:

- sometimes you make a stroke , but you might have just as well stayed
in bed, because gimp won't move the tool

- sometimes you get a stray point (x = 0 or y = 0) added to your stroke,
resulting in long horizontal or diagonal splodges where you don't want
'em (some kind of race condition I expect)

I'm using vanilla Xubuntu, so there's just xfce4 & its desktop - no
unity/metacity/...

[Bug 786317] [NEW] wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

2011-05-21 Thread Andrew Kay
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gimp

It appears that sometimes when the pen is lifted a "button up" command is 
somehow not sent to gimp.
This is new in Natty (it all worked beautifully in Maverick)

gimp 2.6.11, 
ubuntu natty
Wacom intuous3 6x8

To reproduce:
make sure you have selected wacom as extended input device.  Press "P" to paint.
Make a stroke.  Very often (but not always) at the end of the stroke when the 
pen is lifted the paint cursor remains at the end of the stroke and does not 
follow the pointer.  It's necessary to click again (anywhere, or with any 
button) to get the cursor following the pointer again before you can draw 
another stroke.  This makes gimp unusable.

[Bug 2108956] [NEW] GNOME terminal crashes on second and later graphical logins without a reboot

2025-04-23 Thread Andrew Kay
Public bug reported:

When attempting to activate the GNOME Terminal on my heavily-modified
Ubuntu 24.04.x LTS system, I have noted that the terminal emulator is
unable to launch properly after logging out of my first graphical system
and logging into a second, third, or later successive graphical system.
Even when operating on my vanilla GNOME desktop installation under Xorg,
I have noted that my GNOME Terminal is not currently in an operable
state. When starting an X session from a tty, I have also been unable to
operate the GNOME Terminal.

I had expected an operational GNOME terminal emulator, regardless of the
number of attempts or X sessions that the terminal had passed through.
Initially, the problem had been attributed to my initialization of VNC
desktops, but I believe I had later identified the problem as the issue
of multiple X sessions, regardless of concurrency status.

Output from `lsb-release -rd` (sorry if this issue tracker does not
support Markdown formatting):
