[Bug 1015383] Re: Rhythmbox uses 100% CPU and high IO and then crashes

2014-05-30 Thread John Mills
On 14.04
What I did
Launched Rhythmbox from the Launcher.
Played a couple of wav files.
Closed Rhythmbox with the window's close widget.
Looked in the Sound menu to see whether it had made itself persistent. It had.
Right-clicked it there. After a long time it opened.
(may have played another file here)
The machine became very busy, mouse pointer disappeared.
Disk light continually on.
Opened another tty.
During the (very slow) login, a message appeared saying hda1 would be checked 
on next startup.
I ran top.
rhythmbox-metadata was taking 29% cpu and 60% memory.
Returned to desktop with Ctl-Alt-F7
In the background was the error message. Sorry, the program 'rhythmbox' closed 
unexpectedly. Your computer does not have enough free memory to automatically 
analyze the problem and send a report to the developers."
Apport was taking 100% cpu but no notification from it appeared.

[Bug 841409] Re: GEdit is the only choice as Calendar application in Default Applications dialog

2013-03-19 Thread John Mills
Hello Rainer,

I have to agree with you on this bug report. I have been subscribed to
this for well over a year and as an end user I have not seen any
progress. I advocate Ubuntu to a lot of people and generally I am happy
in the direction Ubuntu is taking. However I feel that this shows a lack
of commitment to detail.

I would not expect to find something like this in OSX or Microsoft
Windows. It is the little details that make the overall experience.
Defaulting a calendar to open Gedit is simply not good practise. A
calendar is a very basic item to have built in to your desktop and I was
astounded when it was removed in Ubuntu and even more so that it is
given such prominence in the touch edition of Ubuntu. Can any developer
explain this disparity?

It was stated that Thunderbird would provide the same level of
functionality as Evolution did when the switch was first mooted and that
Thunderbird would ship with a calendar. This is cleary an example of a
regression in Ubuntu when a feature is removed and not replaced with an
equivalent.

Let me just ask, why is it essential for my phone that a calendar be a
default application but not my desktop which I probably spend 10 times
longer using in a day? Surely you would want to link your calendar
across both devices in order to be productive.

I think it is time that Canonical take a holistic approach to the
totality of their computing experience and provide a consitent
experience.

Best regards,


J Mills
