Pulse audio being disabled
I have seen in last few releases that PA gets disabled when i reboot. This is not due to updates or reboot i dont think since it happens all the time after updates than reboot. -- Sincerely Yours, John Vivirito https://launchpad.net/~gnomefreak https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JohnVivirito Linux User# 414246 How can i get lost, if i have no where to go -- Metallica from Unforgiven III signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

Apache Maven to be removed from Karmic?
Currently, the Apache Maven package doesn't work due to the libplexus packages (a Maven dependency) being synced from Debian but not Maven itself. According to the bug reports [1][2], this isn't going to be fixed for Karmic and the Maven package will most likely just be dropped. First, as a Java developer I hope this doesn't happen as Maven is pretty much required for Java development (at least in the U.S.). Second, There are a great many people who are currently using Maven in Ubuntu. If it is necessary to drop the packages you really need to warn people during the upgrade process so they won't spend too much time wondering why their projects aren't building anymore (or so they can stick to 9.04 for the time being). It should also be mentioned in the release notes that Ubuntu no longer supports Maven because that would certainly come as a surprise to developers and would factor into their decision on which version to install. I've created a bug report for that [3] but it doesn't appear to have been looked at yet. True, it's only been a few days, but since the release date is quite close now I figured I'd shoot off this email so hopefully this will be resolved one way or the other before the release. 1. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/427539 2. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/417164 3. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/450554 -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
murrine themes and rgba patches in ubuntu
to be able to apply RGBA transparency (Real transparency) sometimes we need murrine themes, so it is a good idea to convert current themes to murrine, and apply by default rgba patches as emesene has by default to be able to apply real transparency, I do not know how much possible it will be with the new gnomw shell that is about to land but as we are going about to drop compiz, maybe how do not know how much, we have to begin thinking about it.. I just has brought this into conversation, so let's talk about it -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss

I could state that a LiveCD build of Nexuiz is essential to a successful Linux build, because everyone wants to play FPS games and we can't have a real operating system if you can't just reboot your computer onto a cleanroom disc with Nexuiz in it. While Nexuiz does exist, and is fun, it's hardly essential for anything (even flexing Ubuntu as a gaming platform), and a LiveCD boot to run a single application is obviously just a pet project of mine. I will continue to laugh at people who present anything with *a* user base as something *essential* to an *entire* class of users, unless it obviously is and thus dropping it would horribly break Ubuntu's functionality or drastically alter the user experience for the entire install base (i.e. libc-dev for C programmers, OpenOffice.org-Writer or Firefox getting dropped, etc). Something only used by a subset of a subset of the userbase isn't required for that whole subset to function, just the further subset thereof. Again, case in point, if Ubuntu drops Maven and suddenly every Java application fails to build on the BS, then Maven is required for Java programming.

Re: Apache Maven to be removed from Karmic?
You're *seriously* trying to make the argument that a build tool--especially the one that is due to replace Ant--isn't essential to Java developers?

It _is_ pretty much required for any significant J2EE development.
