[Bug 231811] Re: freedom is a dependancy for prboom... but shouldn't

[Jon Dowland]

I've just uploaded -5 to debian which moves the wad dependencies to
Recommends:. I received one comment on the games list which was an
affirmative.

Whether or not ubuntu decides to use game-data-packager or not is up to
you folks, of course. If you opt not to, there's a patch in -5 which
adds some descriptive text to the "IWAD not found" error recommending
the package - you may want to drop that if it does not exist in the same
repo as prboom in ubuntu.

[Bug 231811] Re: freedom is a dependancy for prboom... but shouldn't

[Jon Dowland]

You do need a wad file and prboom is useless without one. I guess you
are suggesting that the wad file should be seen as similar to e.g. a
JPEG used in conjunction with the GIMP: you don't need to provide a JPEG
in a package for GIMP to be in the archive. The difference of course is
the GIMP can be used to create a new JPEG from scratch.

With the dependency, people who are not familiar with doom are protected
from installing the package and having something that won't work. People
who are familiar and own doom can easily build a doom-wad package using
doom-package (or game-data-packager). The trouble seems to be that most
of the people in this category don't read the prboom package description
before installing it (indeed, they seem to blindly hit OK in their
package manager enough times to get freedoom downloaded and installed
before they notice).

FWIW, I'm the upstream maintainer of the package in Debian.

I think this bug report is evidence that people *aren't* reading the
package description, or they'd know about doom-package and how to avoid
installing freedoom.

That is certainly a stronger argument now that plain apt installs
recommends by default as well as synaptic and aptitude. You could also
quote "The Depends field should be used if the depended-on package is
required for the depending package to provide a significant amount of
functionality." however.  I shall raise this on the debian-devel-games
mailing list.

(If we're quick, we might get a change in *just* before the Lenny freeze
:-) -- not that this impacts you folks much. )

> The doom-package description says "Currently doom-package supports DOOM 2

game-data-packager (a newer version of doom-package) supports doom,
doom2 and both of the final doom IWADs. It is currently in the Debian
NEW queue so I guess it will make its way to multiverse (or is that
something that needs human intervention?): the code is at
svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-games/packages/trunk/game-data-packager/ if
anyone is curious in the mean time.

g-d-p also installs .desktop files, alternative in /usr/share/games/doom
and icons for the menu entries. We will be removing the .desktop file
from the engine packages in Debian soon. The installed-size of the
package reflects the IWAD size so you have a fair idea of what payload
the packages carry in the package manager interfaces. We will be able to
introduce hooks to automatically build GL nodes for installed wads too.

[Bug 176363] Re: i cant find teh games i downloaded from synaptic package manager

[Jon Dowland]

Games go in /usr/games. The PATH above does not include /usr/games. It
does include /usr/sbin though. Root, by default, does not include
/usr/games but does include /usr/sbin.

The user is most likely running as root. I suggest running as a normal
user.

You can see the list of files installed by a package by running "dpkg -L
packagename".

This therefore seems to be a question ("where are my games"), not a bug.

[Bug 231811] yes it should.

[Jon Dowland]

If you read the prboom package's description, you should see "PrBoom
requires an IWAD to play. A free IWAD is available in the freedoom
package. You can install your commercial Doom IWADs using doom-package.
".

The reason for using Depends: is that prboom cannot be used without an
IWAD. In Debian therefore, it did not belong in the distribution because
it couldn't be used without additional non-free parts (so it would go in
contrib).

When freedoom was introduced, it was possible to use prboom using free
components (freedoom), so it was moved to main.

You can satisfy the boom-wad | doom-wad dependency by building a package
that contains your commercial IWAD if you have one. doom-package in
debian does exactly that. I see doom-package is in multiverse, I wonder
why.

I think applying this patch would degrade the quality of the prboom
package because people could install it, try to run it and it won't work
without additional bits.

[Bug 101936] Re: [apport] prboom crashed with SIGSEGV in free()

[Jon Dowland]

It's a problem with MIDI playback and some hardware, not all. Timidity
fixes it because that makes prboom use software MIDI playback rather
than hardware. It shouldn't be a dependency because not all hardware
MIDI is affected.

I think it's a bug in the SDL mixer library.

You can get around it by either touching /etc/timidity/timidity.cfg or
running with -nomusic (which still gives you sound effects).

Penguin command apparently might behave the same:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=298982

It was a while ago but in the libsdl1.2-mixer documentation it says "do
not do ", I think if you are using it asynchronously,  prboom
does. When I stopped it doing that (patch not available but I recall it
wasn't too complex), the crash wasn't prevented, but it did happen later
on (and the backtrace became more useful). I'll see if I can remember
what it was  I did.

Even aside from the issue of responsibility (game or WM), freedoom is
merely a lump of world data and does not draw any windows at all. The
window drawing is performed by an engine, most likely "prboom".

[Bug 358391] Re: Window games should start in the centre of the screen

My comments: definitely a window manager issue, although maybe some
games could provide "hints" to the WM. The concept of "centered" doesn't
even make sense in some environments (tiled awesome, ion2, ion3, etc.).
If a game does try to position itself centrally, it would no doubt
suffer from many bugs relating to what "centre" means in multi-screen
environments, etc.

[Bug 61855] Installer crashed (powerpc,edgy knot 3)

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

I attempted a fairly basic install using Edgy Knot 3 powerpc desktop CD.
I had to manually edit partitions to create a swap and ext3 partition:
the disk was previously partitioned using mac os x installer's disk
utility to have 10GB HFS+ partition first, then 10GB free space after.

During the gparted stage of the edgy install, it appeared that there was
128MB of free space at the front of the drive. I can't account for this
from my disk ultility activities. I thought perhaps it was just a macosx
quirk, or maybe that's where it hid it's swap partition (I'm not a
macosx expert).

I was given a warning message from the installer: "No NewWorld boot
partition was found. The yaboot boot  loader requires  an
Apple_Bootstrap partition at least 819200 bytes in size, using the HFS
Macintosh file system." Two options: Go Back, Continue. I opted for
continue to see what would happen.

Later, I received an "Installer crashed" window with a python backtrace
in it. I'll attach a screenshot of that, the yaboot message, and my
partman and syslog files.

[Bug 60618] Re: Can't use some MMC cards

[Jon Dowland]

Hi: just a general pointer, this bug report would be a lot easier to
read if you attached the big dmesg output as an attachment rather than
in-line and only provided the relevant line from lspci (at least for me:
I'm not sure what the kernel team or general launchpad etiquette is).

Regarding upstream development, what is "a long time" for inactivity?
Things seem to have slown down a little bit since 2.6.17 (the first
mainline kernel to have the driver integrated) but I don't think they
have stopped.

What is the capacity (i.e. 512MB, 1GB, etc.) of your working SD card and
your non-working SD card?

It's worth trying the vanilla 2.6.18 kernel as supplied by kernel.org.
If the problem does not exist with that, then it's a matter of
backporting the fix, I imagine. If the problem _does_ occur with 2.6.18,
then the sdhci-devel people will be interested.

Here's a preliminary script for acpi-support to support hot
docking/undocking.

For the thinkpad "undock please" button to work, you need to unmask it
in /proc/acpi/ibm/event; I'm not sure if acpi-support or hotkey-support
do this already.

You'll need thinkpad-acpi loaded for that /proc bit to be present, and
dock loaded for the stuff in /sys which this script pokes.

Note that this doesn't work with a bay present in the dock yet: so you
get dockable power, usb, video/ps2 passthrough etc., but not IDE/ATA
devices.

[Bug 570697] [NEW] non-sensical items in context menu for DVD-ROM icons

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

the icon for my DVD drive / an inserted DVD within the "Computer" menu
includes an item "Rename..." which purports to allow me to rename it.
This is nonsensical. If I attempt it, I am greeted with a dialogue
"Sorry, could not rename "CD/DVD Drive: Ubuntu 10.04 i386" to "wtf.04
i386": Operation not supported by backend".

The icon for my DVD drive that appears on the desktop correctly has this item 
greyed out. (Why have it at all?) However this icon has an option "Compress..." 
which was not present in the "Computer" version of the icon. Attempting this 
results in a error dialogue "tar: Ubuntu 10.04 i386.volume: Cannot stat: No 
such file or directory
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors" (indeed there is no 
.desktop file  in ~/Desktop for this launcher, it is a virtual one created on 
demand by the insertion of a disc)

Both context menus need pruning to items that make sense for this
particular icon. The least confusing thing would be for the two items,
visually and functionally equivalent, to have identical context menus.

[Bug 570590] Re: empathy can be running without a visible UI

[Jon Dowland]

With no indicator applet, this causes empathy to draw an icon in the
notification area.

so the bug can be restated as:

With no indicator applet in gnome-panel and with the default options set
(i.e. "show incoming messages in the messaging menu"), on clicking the
'close' button on the empathy main UI, empathy will remain running but
without any visual indication it is doing so.

Suggested solution:

When deciding whether to draw an icon in the notification area, take
into account both the "show incoming messages in the messaging menu"
preference and whether or not the indicator applet is running.

Additionally:

When there is no indicator applet nor notification area loaded in the
panel, the behaviour of the close button should change. It should either
exit the application (as per HIG), perhaps prompting the user for
confirmation (since this is not the usual behaviour) or minimize the
application (functionally equivalent to "docking" the app in the
notification area or indicator applet, and the behaviour chosen by MSN
messenger in Windows 7)

[Bug 570577] [NEW] fixed-width font sometimes mis-aligns

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: chromium-browser

An odd one this. Perhaps not chromium's fault, but that is where I've
witnessed the problem. Whilst editing a wiki page
(http://ikiwiki.info/tips/convert_mediawiki_to_ikiwiki/) I noticed that
some vertical bar characters did not align correctly. Screenshot
attached. The issue does not occur with Firefox.

This is a nearly-fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 RC with no configuration
changes to font settings anywhere.

[Bug 570590] [NEW] empathy can be running without a visible UI

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: empathy

The default behaviour for empathy with the indicator applet present on
gnome-panel is to hide the UI when you click the close button but keep
running.  The UI can be brought back to life by selecting "Chat" under
the indicator applet.

If you remove the indicator applet from gnome-panel, empathy's behaviour
will not change, but the main UI will disappear. It cannot be retrieved
via the indicator applet, obviously, but remains running, so you are
listed as "present" etc. on your IM networks.

In this situation it is possible to get the UI to re-appear by launching
a new empathy instance (which causes the original instance to display
its UI) but this is not particulary intuitive.

Empathy should perhaps quit like a traditional program when you click on
the close button and do not have an indicator applet.  Perhaps with an
"are you sure" prompt.

[Bug 514454] Re: freedm crashes after starting

"freedm" is calling whatever is providing "/usr/games/boom" on your
system, most likely prboom, and that is crashing. Freedoom and freedm
are essentially just game data, but they also carry a small shell script
(/usr/games/freed{oom,m}), a .desktop file, icon etc.

Please confirm which package is providing your "boom" binary (readlink
-f /usr/games/boom), check for reports against that package (to avoid
duplicates) and if necessary, file a bug there.

[Jon Dowland]

At the moment, Fabian and I are working on implementing rott support in
game-data-packager. It should be quite trivial for us to extend that
support to the commercial data. One issue though is I do not currently
own a copy of the game. It looks like it can be bought from 3drealms.com
for about  5.52 GBP. I'm not prepared to buy it myself right now (other
priorities) but may do so once the shareware support is finished. On the
other hand, if someone wanted to buy it for me, I might do it faster.

It looks to me like you have it set to one of the X-powered front ends

Thanks. Unfortunately we need a backtrace with debugging symbols which
means one from a rebuilt package (there is no seperate debugging symbols
package for prboom at the moment)

I've passed this onto upstream who suggest just disabling all asm. I
don't kNow who is responsible for the ubuntu package, but I'll submit
myself to motu in the meantime.

I may make the change in the Debian package, as it's likely this will
bite us too, depending on what change caused it.

[Bug 375498] Re: prboom exits with signal 8 on karmic

[Jon Dowland]

Robert J Lee, thanks for your offer. For info, in general, if you define
the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS environment variable to include "nostrip", then
the package build process will not strip debugging symbols from
binaries.

However, I passed this onto the upstream author, who suggested that
there was no harm in simply disabling all the assembler. It's very
unlikely to result in a noticeable performance hit for any users of the
Ubuntu packages. So, I suggest that Ubuntu do just that.

I'm planning to submit myself to MOTU. If the package has not been
updated by the time that is done, I will make the correction myself.

[Bug 435949] Re: should Conflicts and Provides metacity

[Jon Dowland]

Erm...

a) the OPs suggestion would prevent you from installing mutter alongside
metacity, which is pretty important for curious people who might want to
perhaps evaluate mutter, but not commit to using it, and need an exit
strategy. Especially since mutter fails to start for many people right
now. Since they do not, in fact, conflict, and play nicely together (at
least when mutter is in a working state), conflicting is not a good
idea.

b) Matti, if gdm were to depend on metacity or mutter, you would prevent
people from choosing to only install an alternative window manager (of
which there are many). The current situation is to recommend on metacity
| x-window-manager, which is correct - it strongly suggests metacity but
does not insist on anything.

I just attempted to start mutter from a failsafe terminal session (no

the same error.

[Bug 513688] [NEW] FTBFS in Lucid (2 clause open(2) with O_CREAT)

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: archfs

Looking at http://launchpadlibrarian.net/35890741/buildlog_ubuntu-lucid-
amd64.archfs_0.5.4-1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz

problem appears to be the use of the 2 clause version of open(2) with
O_CREAT unmasked in the second argument, which is invalid. Fix is to add
a third argument with a mode. This patch should fix it (unsure: my local
gcc doesn't fail with the 2 clause version):

[Bug 375498] Re: prboom exits with signal 8 on karmic

[Jon Dowland]

Could someone who is experiencing this bug please provide a backtrace?

It looks like some of the assembler in prboom is not liked by the
version of gcc being used by Ubuntu. I'm guessing this is a more recent
version than Debian (or some feature or patch applied is missing on
Debian) so the problem doesn't occur there.

--disable-i386-asm fixes the problem by disabling *ALL* of the
assembler. A backtrace would help to pinpoint which bit of the assembler
specifically is to blame.

Thanks to ferrazrafael for your efforts in providing a "fixed" package,
but I don't think it's a good idea to advise people to install unsigned
packages.

[Bug 375498] Re: prboom exits with signal 8 on karmic

[Jon Dowland]

Ok I can confirm this using karmic's prboom package on a Debian sid i386
machine. Using the latest version of the package in Debian (-5 rather
than -4) is fine.

I suspect a bad build or something.

Someone who looks after this stuff in Ubuntu should either schedule a
rebuild or pull in the more recent package from Debian.

[Bug 1731680] Re: quake3 demo shows 8-10 fps only

[Jon Dowland]

Hi, thanks for the report. This is likely a local configuration with
your quake3 engine of choice (ioquake3) and not an issue with your data
package nor with game-data-packager. It would be helpful for further
diagnosis if you could report whether you get a different framerate with
different data, or what framerate you are expecting: I'm guessing you
are suggesting that 8-10fps is too slow for your machine, but you
haven't made that clear.

[Bug 1714787] Re: Launching chocolate-doom or prboom-plus crashes Wayland session

[Jon Dowland]

Can you try either prboom or chocolate-doom with the '-nofullscreen'
command-line option? My hunch is the problem is related to trying to
change the display resolution whilst entering fullscreen mode.

It's likely actually an SDL1 bug. In Chocolate Doom's case, we are
moving to SDL2 with the next release (v3) which we consider to be the
proper way to address bugs like these, although I don't think prboom has
any plans to change.

[Bug 686609] [NEW] the fuse filesystem for gvfs has got "stuck"

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gvfs

$ df -h | grep gvfs
gvfs-fuse-daemon   92G   87G  960M  99% /home/jon/.gvfs
/dev/fuse  92G   87G  960M  99% /home/jon/.gvfs

j...@sobek:~$ fusermount -u .gvfs
fusermount: /home/jon/.gvfs not mounted
j...@sobek:~$ umount .gvfs
umount: it seems /home/jon/.gvfs is mounted multiple times
j...@sobek:~$ sudo umount .gvfs
[sudo] password for jon: 
umount: /home/jon/.gvfs: not mounted

There's a more general issue about FUSE and inconsistent advice on mount
state.

Maybe I can force a umount?

j...@sobek:~$ umount -f .gvfs
umount: only root can do that
j...@sobek:~$ sudo umount -f .gvfs
umount2: Invalid argument
umount: .gvfs: not mounted
j...@sobek:~$ umount -l .gvfs
umount: /home/jon/.gvfs is not mounted (according to mtab)
j...@sobek:~$ fusermount -uz .gvfs
fusermount: entry for /home/jon/.gvfs not found in /etc/mtab

One of the above commands cleared the problem, but I'm not sure which (I
assumed they all failed when I ran them)

[Bug 682629] [NEW] occasionally moves to occupy 50% hoz space of screen

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

I have a single gnome-panel at the top of my screen.

Occasionally,  the panel moves to occupy the right-hand 50% of the
screen, horizontally.  The panel also stretches off past the visible
edge on the RHS.  It's as if the panel hasn't changed shape at all, but
believes the screen to begin 50% to the right of where it actually does.

I seem to recall in the past when this has happened that the wallpaper
can be drawn badly too.  This might have been when I let nautilus draw
the desktop, although currently I have that disabled to avoid another
bug.

Killing the panel and starting afresh resolves the problem.

This is a similar trace to nautilus in #620323.   Although since nobody is 
likely to ever read these reports, I don't now why I trouble myself to point 
that out.  I'm fairly sure that the composition manager is at fault, personally.

[Bug 666217] Re: backlight controls on a toshiba r700 don't change backlight after resume from suspend

[Jon Dowland]

Hello,  I have no reason to believe that the bug has been fixed (two
minor revisions in the kernel since I filed) but unfortunately I cannot
confirm as the mainboard in the R100 I was using has died.

We have another R100 that I will be putting the HDD into, but I won't
recover that for another week.  I will try to report back whether the
problem remains once I have the hardware.

[Bug 641134] [NEW] upgrades cause chrome errors in running instances

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

If I upgrade my system using upgrade-manager and thunderbird is amongst
those packages upgraded, my running instance will occasionally stop
working (noticed this twice so far).  I've seen similar things happen to
Firefox in Debian.

I suspect that the running instance is depending on (mozilla) chrome
stuff to be in particular places or to have particular properties which
have changed. The result is zero-width, zero-height blank prompt windows
popping up, search result windows turning up empty (implying no matches
to search) etc. until  I realise what has happened and kill thunderbird.

I think this needs to be handled more gracefully, perhaps a prompt
indicating that running instances have been detected and should be
restarted would be a first start (I've seen a debconf prompt for this on
libc upgrades for running daemons)

Hi, sorry for the noise. I can't see this patch applied to the vte3
package. Should it be? Is there a separate bug to track for that
package?

[Bug 751453] Re: External monitor doesn't work on Toshiba Portege R600

[Jon Dowland]

I think I've figured this out.

In my BIOS (hit esc and/or f1 repeatedly at boot to get to it), there's an 
option "Power on Display".  It's not visible on the first page; I had to hit 
page down to bring up the second page.

My laptop was set to "auto-selected", if I switch it to the only other option
"LCD+Analog RGB", then I can hot-plug an external display at run time in Linux,
regardless of whether I booted with one attached.

Note that I still think there's a bug in Linux here:  if the ext display is not 
powered,
but still detected, it should power it up.  I think Windows gets this right, 
but I have
to confirm that.

[Bug 1077531] Re: debhelper lacks example rules files

[Jon Dowland]

Those files were removed on purpose in 2011-04-01 (here's the commit:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=debhelper/debhelper.git;a=commitdiff;h=54fbbed4eb8bf4086e12f4c22204ab75729a4f65)

I think the reason is that the old, long-form way of writing rules files
is deprecated, at least from the debhelper maintainer's POV.

You are best to start with the tiny file and override what stages you
need to for your particular package. Here's a short example of such a
rules file, with two or three targets overidden:
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-
games/freedoom.git;a=blob;f=debian/rules;h=78c4b4271775f6c59f232bc85670f1fb806ec498;hb=HEAD

Check the dh(1) manpage, section "OVERRIDE TARGETS" to learn more about
how it works.

[Bug 1174635] [NEW] gnome-shell "Power Off" menu item confusing, incongruous with GDMs

[Jon Dowland]

Public bug reported:

Hi,

gdm 3.6.1-0ubuntu4
gnome-shell 3.6.3.1-0ubuntu6

When logged into GNOME 3, the right-hand menu has an item "Power Off" at
the bottom. Clicking it brings up a context menu which gives you the
option of logging out or suspending as well. This is confusing as the
menu item does not end with an ellipsis, which is the traditional way of
indicating that a menu item leads to further options (e.g. "Power Off…")

When you are not logged in and are instead facing the GDM login screen,
you have the same menu (albeit with a power off icon instead of the
logged in user's name). However this time "Power Off" does just that
with no prompts.

I think the logged-in version should be qualified with an ellipsis to
indicate that it offers further choices. This would draw a distinction
between the different behaviours the item has when logged in or not.
