[Bug 130441] Re: desktop effects error dialog doesn't close
Just encountered this bug in the current Hardy release candidate. The posted patch is the obvious fix and I confirm that it works (though I did not apply the patch but added the line manually). Please fix this. -- desktop effects error dialog doesn't close https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130441 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 132612] Re: memory leak in evince?
I've since discovered a way to kill evince when it freezes my system: First press Ctrl+Alt+SysRq+R and then press Ctrl+Alt+SysRq+F. This should kill the process that is abusing your memory most and make your system useable again. -- memory leak in evince? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132612 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 132612] Re: memory leak in evince?
Same problem here, I think. I'm working on a 500 page LaTeX document which compiles to a 25mb pdf. If I scroll too much, evince just eats up ALL of my 1gb of memory AND my 1.2gb of swap. It actually looks like it keeps eating memory for a while even after I stop scrolling. Sometimes I catch it just before it's eaten all my memory (I have the system monitor applets in my panel) and am able to press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, which after a few more minutes of swapping kills my GUI and gets me a useable window manager again. I have had a couple of hard lockups because of this; I don't know why evince isn't getting killed automatically (as I would expect, and like someone else said happened for him/her). -- memory leak in evince? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132612 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 132612] Re: memory leak in evince?
To add to my earlier comment, I also very much disagree with the low priority. This bug that has the unexpectedly taken down my session and all unsaved work in it multiple times makes using Evince an unacceptable risk. -- memory leak in evince? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132612 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 69894] Re: gnome-volume control crashes (preferences)
Hi, sorry for the late reply. Luckily, this doesn't happen every time I go to prefs. In fact I haven't been able to reproduce it since. My alsa config is now fixed after deleting some (trivial, or so I thought) custom config files left over from dapper (/etc/asound.conf and .asoundrc). Symptoms were all kinds of strange behaviour, esp. relating to multi-channel output (stuttering, refusing to play, non-working volume controls etc.). -- gnome-volume control crashes (preferences) https://launchpad.net/bugs/69894 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 69894] Re: gnome-volume control crashes (preferences)
Ah, just to clarify, the custom changes I had made to my config files were an extra pcm to duplicate stereo to 5.1 in my .asoundrc and some code in asound.conf that made sure the correct sound card was used IIRC (I have onboard audio and a separate card). I no longer have the old asound.conf unfortunately. -- gnome-volume control crashes (preferences) https://launchpad.net/bugs/69894 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 69894] gnome-volume control crashes (preferences)
Public bug reported: Although my alsa config is somewhat broken at the moment, gnome-volume- manager is the only app that actually manages to crash because of it.
