it's just (in my opinion) terrible discoverability of the Gnome status bar. James On 20 July 2015 at 10:35, James Cook wrote: > Package: sparkleshare > Version: 1.2-0.1 > Severity: important > > Dear Maintainer, > > After upgrading to jessie, I no longer see the Sparkle

Bug#793036: sparkleshare: Sparkleshare status icon no longer visible in default Gnome DE after upgrading from wheezy to jessie

2015-07-20 Thread James Cook
Package: sparkleshare Version: 1.2-0.1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, After upgrading to jessie, I no longer see the Sparkleshare icon. I depend on it to tell me whether my repository has been synced. Sparkleshare is still successfully running and syncing in the background, though. I'm u

Bug#720122: Bah, premature send ...

2013-08-22 Thread James Cook
I accidentally poked send before I was finished. I'd like to see wheezy's lxc patched to avoid all the frustrations I had trying to diagnose why their guest VMs don't work. It's fine to say that unstable or testing has working versions but that doesn't address brokenness in stable. -- James

Bug#720122: Submit patch to wheezy-updates-proposed?

I see that the bug was closed referencing an updated package in experimental, but this is kind of a big deal for running any distro that's patched the CVE report (removed pt_chown) as a guest. =/ -- James

Package: lxc Version: 0.8.0~rc1-8+deb7u1 Severity: important The release of glibc 2.18 removes pt_chown to address CVE-2013-2207. Guests that use that version of glibc thus cannot use PTYs rendering them useless. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT poli

Bug#718673: s3cmd should recommend python-magic

2013-08-03 Thread James Cook
Package: s3cmd Version: 1.1.0~beta3-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, s3cmd says the following when I copy files to S3: "WARNING: Module python-magic is not available. Guessing MIME types based on file extensions." Probably python-magic should be a dependency or at least a recommended packag

2012-08-07 Thread James Cook
Okay, I upgraded my kernel from squeeze-backports to linux-image-3.2.0-0.bpo.2-amd64, and suspending seems to work (I only tried it from X). If you want more information to help get this working without backports, let me know; otherwise I might not follow up again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to d

I tried newer versions of pm-suspend: 1.3.1 and 1.4.1, installed from source from http://pm-utils.freedesktop.org/wiki/. Either version seems to fix everything except the video: after resuming, I can ssh into the machine, and if I started in text mode, I can continue typing commands, but the scree
