[Bug 244050] [NEW] cannot turn off program autostart on ipod connection
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-volume-manager I'm trying to disable autostarting rhythmbox or banshee when connecting my ipod. However this behavior continues after disabling it in 2 different places. first of all the original place to disable this has diasappeared. used to exist in System Preferences Removable Drives and Media I was able to find a tutorial that led me to another default program that did list media players and disabled autostart there (forget the program, but was exactly like Removable Drives and Media with more devices) I then also disabled the functionality in gconf (desktop gnome volume_manager) and unchecked autoipod both of these listed rhythmbox as the default however I keep having Banshee launched when inserting my ipod. There however is no option in banshee to set this behavior and checking with them they don't even offer it, so it must still be a gnome-volume-manager bug. is there a way to see what is initiating the autostart? ** Affects: gnome-volume-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- cannot turn off program autostart on ipod connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/244050 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-volume-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 128803] Re: [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup
personally bootchart won't do anything for me since the problem is not on booting but on gnome login. I believe someone above was able to make it work all the way through the desktop loading, but i don't think i have the technical skills to make that work. If there is an easier way that you know of to analyze the gnome login please let me know and i would be glad to find the problem. however, until that time Gutsy will continue to login to gnome in 2-3min for me. hoping a clean install of Hardy will make this all go away in 2 short months -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 128803] Re: [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup
thats one way to do itmaybe devs will realize how annoying this can be. this bug needs instructions on how to approach self-diagnosing the problem. many people have removed all applets with no results. sweetsinse seemed to do an extremely thorough job and suggested it may be a problem with the compiz script used by ubuntu. has this been explored by any developers knowledgable in this area? looking at bootchart doesn't mean anything to me, if i go through the trouble of patching and installing it to analyze login will someone take a look? first though, how do i do that? I for one use both compiz and deskbar as i have since edgy, and i've still noticed a good 15-30sec jump in login time since moving from feisty. removing them doesnt seem to change much, but when you're talking about 45sec login vs 60sec its still waaa too lng. -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 128803] Re: [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup
to the contrary, YES, switching to other distros also running Gnome 2.20 has made a big difference to some of the users above. I believe one person tried Arch linux with more panel aplets and still had 10sec less than Ubuntu. Then as you saw, anibal switched to Mandriva and seems to not have the problem anymore. So to both Sebastien and Ricardo, YES it does make a difference. this is an Ubuntu specific problem, How do I help? have not tried the feisty kernel, but do not have the time right now to test that -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 128803] Re: [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup
i agree, do remember a good drop in time with feisty as well, which would make this a regression more than anything. not as comparable to edgy -- [Gutsy] very slow gnome startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128803 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 157306] Re: greyed options in right click context menu
1. insert a cd or usb drive and make so it appears on desktop 2. right click on it 3. Notice Options in menu (13) Open Browse Folder Cut Copy Make Link Rename... Move to Trash Stretch Icon Restore Icon's Original Size Copy Disc Create Archive Eject Properties 4. Notice Options actually available to select (7) (i.e. not greyed out) Open Browse Stretch Icon Copy Disc Create Archive Eject Properties therefore only 7 of 13 options are selectable, yet all are displayed. Why display them if they are not possible? It clutters the menu My problems with this: 1. Open Browse Folder - currently do the same thing. For audio CD/DVD, Open should play the content in preferred application. Otherwise shouldn't be listed. 2. Cut - you can't Cut a drive. shouldn't be in the menu at all 2. Copy - should be available and should copy the contents of the media where ever the user chooses to paste it 3. Make Link Rename - not useful in this instance 4. Restore Icon Size - why display an option to restore icon size before anything has been done to the icon. anything else? -- greyed options in right click context menu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157306 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 44686] Re: Pressing multimedia buttons on laptop with lid closed should not turn on screen
bug still relevant in 7.04 Feisty Fawn don't think this is a screensaver problem as much as a power-management problem. When I look at the Power History it shows that closing the lid initiates DPMS Off but when pressing the multimedia buttons the computer changes to DPMS On, turning on screen. only later when i open my laptop lid does it show that the laptop lid is opened. unlike the original post though, my screen eventually goes black as set to do, although not sure about timing. basically, DPMS should not be set On when lid is down on laptop and multimedia buttons are pressed. different behavior may be desired on desktop such that the screen does come on when keys are pressed, but on a laptop as long as the lid is closed the screen should not be initiated until opened -- Pressing multimedia buttons on laptop with lid closed should not turn on screen https://launchpad.net/bugs/44686 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
