I've got Ubuntu 10.10 and just set up Empathy to chat on the ejabberd
channel on conference.jabber.ru. I'm seeing the error a lot.

[Bug 150559] Re: [gutsy] deskbar applet locks up during first search after startup

2007-10-11 Thread Christopher Armstrong
I had similar problems with the deskbar and they went away when I
disabled the window switcher. Does the problem continue for you guys if
you turn off the window switcher?

[Bug 23244] Re: keyboard shortcut mixed when using several keymaps

2007-04-06 Thread Christopher Armstrong
Ok, I found an example that really enrages me. Gnome Dictionary won't
let me type in a z in Dvorak. I cannot look up the definition of
zebra! Instead, it pops up the search bar. That's because dvorak 'z'
is on qwerty '/'.

By the way, much more useful information about this problem is in the
bug I reported (which was marked as a duplicate of this one), at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/control-center/+bug/51871 --
at least reading the comments should clarify the issue a bit.

The lame excuses about being able to use latin keybindings from non-
latin keymaps are getting old. This is becoming a serious usability
issue. I understand the need to offer those keybindings to non-latin
keymap users, but something needs to change so it doesn't screw up the
usability for people who use alternative latin keymaps.  (I realize that
the 'lame excuses' are coming from upstream, not Ubuntu. Just venting.)

[Bug 70951] Re: double click in file from my desktop folder open the application, but focus is not in new application.

2007-02-12 Thread Christopher Armstrong
cibercol, is this with a two-monitor setup?

I have what might be the same problem; when a window happens to be
mapped to the display that the currently-focused window is not on, the
new window is not focused.

[Bug 72732] Re: alt-f6 doesn't reliably switch between windows within an application

2007-01-30 Thread Christopher Armstrong
This is rather disappointing, given that it also doesn't work with other
applications like Emacs.

* Is there a way for me to easily get the Group name of arbitrary
windows? xwininfo doesn't provide it, as far as I can tell. Even
something that's accessible through a Python interpreter would be fine.
I guess I could do a little ctypes-ing...

* Are there any other potential sources of information to determine
which windows are from the same application, that you can think of?

[Bug 51871] Re: gtk apps reading accelerator keystrokes incorrectly with alternative keymaps

This remains annoying. Can someone at least verify that this bug is
reported in the correct place?

[Bug 51871] gtk apps reading accelerator keystrokes incorrectly with alternative keymaps

2006-07-04 Thread Christopher Armstrong
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

This is a pretty strange and complicated interaction. I'm using an up-
to-date Dapper installation.

1. My low-level keymap is set to dvorak (whatever that means). That is,
when I installed Ubuntu I told it I want to use dvorak. My keyboard is
physically qwerty. Both my Linux console and X are using dvorak by
default.

2. Without adding any alternate keymaps to the keyboard selector applet,
everything works fine.

3. When I *add the option* to switch to qwerty via my keyboard indicator
applet (something I occasionally do when pair-programming with other
people), all gtk apps (gedit, gtimelog, gaim) stop reading keyboard
accelerators correctly: When I hit ctrl-q, the app does not try to quit,
when I hit ctrl-l, it does not clear the screen, etc -- HOWEVER, when I
hit *ctrl-'* (ctrl and single quote), it tries to quit. When I hit
ctrl-n it clears the screen. single-quote happens to be where the q
key is physically on my keyboard n happens to be where the l key is
physically on my keyboard. Note that I didn't actually *switch* to
qwerty here, I just added the option to my keyboard selector.

All other apps, for instance emacs, do not get my keyboard accelerators
confused.
