[Bug 921013] Re: can no longer drag and drop an unread message in evolution

2012-04-14 Thread Russ W. Knize
Yes, this has been driving me crazy.  Another side effect is if I select
several messages and try to move them.  If the last message I click is
not already marked as read, then when I go to drag them they all get
deselected because the UI instead decides that my drag is a click on the
unread one.

[Bug 771896] Re: No way to save current session

2011-06-13 Thread Russ W. Knize
One of these days I want to try to revert Didier's patches on gnome-
session to see if I can fix this.  I've switched to Linux Mint, but
they've inherited this same bug in their latest version based on natty
(11).

I'm a bit confused with those session management work items.  Isn't
GNOME Classic being removed for oneiric?  What is the point in fixing
it?

[Bug 771896] Re: No way to save current session

2011-05-02 Thread Russ W. Knize
This seems to have been broken by accident or on purpose.  Very
frustrating.  You can enable it with gconf-editor (Configuration
Editor) under /app/gnome-session/options/auto_save_session, but it does
not work for Unity or GNOME (Ubuntu Classic).

[Bug 771896] Re: No way to save current session

2011-05-02 Thread Russ W. Knize
Looks like it was removed deliberately:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1672787

The original rationale is that it was broken and they didn't have time
to fix it.  However the subsequent discussion shows that they do not
intend to.  The reasoning is highly flawed.  I keep my machines on 24/7.
I have 10 or more workspaces and dozens of terminals, editors, and you-
name-it.  It is how I manage doing many things in parallel since my
brain cannot.  I use this feature when I am forced to reboot due to a
security update or some other major issue.  Losing all of that context
is detrimental to me.  I've been struggling to figure out how to work
with Unity, but after discovering this I fear I am going to have to say
goodbye to Ubuntu.  I've been using it since Breezy (and Debian much
longer than that), but it is going in a direction that is not for power
users and clearly not for me.

[Bug 408336] Re: rhythmbox-metadata crashed with SIGSEGV in free()

2010-03-24 Thread Russ W. Knize
I am seeing this issue as well after upgrading to lucid lynx from hardy
(last update 03/24/2010).  Rhythmbox becomes unresponsive shortly after
startup and rhythmbox-metadata pegs the CPU while it spits out
backtraces about bad free()s.  The tracks are on an external USB hard
drive.

Have you tried my suggestions?  Have you looked at gnome-power-manager

[Bug 34233] Re: g-p-m failing to use DPMS to power off display

2008-09-04 Thread Russ W. Knize
I've had this problem ever since I got my LCD monitor (HP LP2065).  The
problem has been the same for edgy, feisty, gutsy, and hardy.  It may
have something to do with the Avocent SwitchView 1000 KVM between my
desktops and my monitor, however my Windows box can put the display to
sleep just fine regardless of how I have Windows setup to control it.  I
suppose it could also be a quirk with the graphics card in this box
(nVidia Corporation NV44 [GeForce 6200 TurboCache(TM)] (rev a1)).

After experimenting with the DPMS method used by gnome-power-manager, I
was able to get it to work by using the standby method for:

/apps/gnome-power-manager/backlight/dpms_method_ac

I would try experimenting with all three settings for your particular
cases.  I restarted gnome-power-manager between each test, but this may
not be necessary.  Note that you have to actually wait for the screen
saver to start before gnome-power-manager sets the DPMS settings for the
power savings timeout (1 minute screen saver + 1 minute display sleep in
my case).  When looking at the output of gnome-power-manager --verbose
--no-daemon for each method with a 1+1 minute timeout, I see (once the
screensaver starts):

BACKLIGHT parameters 60 0 0, method '2' for standby
BACKLIGHT parameters 0 60 0, method '3' for suspend
BACKLIGHT parameters 0 0 60, method '4' for off

In my case, my monitor/KVM combo only responded to the standby method.
YMMV.
