[Bug 1888317] [NEW] on screen keyboad pops up nor requested

2020-07-20 Thread sandro dentella
Public bug reported:

Every now and then the on-screen keyboard pops up not intentionally
required and no evident way to clear it is available.

The only way I can clear it is via "universal access" adding (it is
normally not set) and then disabling it.

I noticed an issue that was closed and invited those who experiment this
problem to re-open an issue... here I am.

It only happens when working on my touch notepad (laptop keyboard).
Never happens if I use external keyboard.

[Bug 1513251] [NEW] Sync preferences not visible in device properties window

2015-11-04 Thread Sandro
Public bug reported:

After upgrading to wily the Sync Preferences list tree box appears
empty. Resizing the window does not help. The same problem occurs when
booting Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 from a live CD. The device I want to sync
music to is an Ipod shuffle model xC323. I also tried resetting it to
factory to no avail.

I was expecting to see a list tree with my Music library on top and all
my playlists as child nodes.

The problem could in fact be a GTK problem, but I've only seen it in
Rhythmbox so far.

[Bug 390662] Re: several nautilus shortcuts don't work shortly after opening directory

2010-03-20 Thread Sandro Mani
I think that rather than several nautilus shortcuts don't work shortly
after opening directory, [...] don't work shortly after nautilus
window received focus would be more appropriate. I.e. I have some
nautilus window open, delete a file, the confirm dialog pops up, then it
often happens that if I fire a keyboard shortcut on some other item in
the same folder, then it is ignored.

[Bug 11334] Re: MASTER Copy-Paste doesn't work if the source is closed before the paste

2010-02-23 Thread Sandro Mani
Tralalalala:
1. I don't know if you ever coded or worked on a larger project, but I can 
guarantee you that no matter how good the documentation of a program is you 
still first have to read through the whole code if it wasn't you writing it. A 
program consists of the written part which everyone can see and more 
importantly of the logic behind it that the programmer developed in his mind, 
it is very hard that any text can give you complete insight of what was going 
on inside the programmer's head when he was writing the program.
2. I don't give a fuck about that bugs. Fix it yourself.: first of all keep 
in mind that many proprietary companies really don't give a damn about bugs 
reported by normal users since they are not worth it economically. They often 
do not even provide you (as a normal user) with any insight about what issues 
are known with their software, what's the status and so on. Here you will find 
plenty of examples which show that developers listen to you no matter who you 
are. And again, developers are not your slaves. As a developer there is always 
a certain amount of passion involved in creating a program, hence it is quite 
unlikely that they will remain indifferent to a major flaw, but you must also 
respect the fact that they make choices what is for them higher priority that 
may be different than what you might want. And in this particular case it is 
not even clear if it is X that should be fixed, since the specification is 
actually clear and it's the programs that in some cases don't implement it. And 
keep in mind, it is very likely much easier to fix the bad behaving 
applications than to radically change a core part of the xserver, possibly 
causing other regressions that don't make you any happier.
3. Open-source software means that anyone actually has the possibility to 
contribute, which indeed DOES give you the possibility to improve something if 
you are not happy with the current situation. Again, it is highly unlikely that 
developers do not care, but since most of the work is done on a voluntary basis 
in their free time you should also respect their choices
4. Since you probably never donated anything to any project, while you are free 
to point out bugs, it is quite rude at best to call developers non-caring 
whatevers and such.

[Bug 11334] Re: MASTER Copy-Paste doesn't work if the source is closed before the paste

2010-02-20 Thread Sandro Mani
Geees will people stop complaining for something they got for FREE? It is like 
if you got a present and start insulting the person which gave it to you 
because it does not work the way you want. It is certainly okay to point out 
things that have some design flaws, but please just try to keep in mind that
1) If there were such a trivial fix, it would already have been fixed
2) You cannot simply swap out something buried so deeply into the window 
manager without risking considerable breakage  
3) The person(s) who originally implemented the clipboard may very well not be 
working on Xorg anymore, hence someone would have to read through the whole 
unfamiliar code and understand it, just like we
4) Developers are not our slaves, and calling them stubborn and whatever surely 
won't motivate them to give up more of their free time for people insulting them

If we are so determined to see this issue fixed, why not just create a wiki 
page somewhere and work together to
- Identify what is wrong with the current specification
- Find out how it works on mac and windows, and discuss what the correct 
specification should look like
- Find out how the current clipboard mechanism is integrated with the other 
components of the window manager and identify the critical parts which could 
cause breakage if altered
- Work on a fix

It is obvious that this is a lot of work, but so would it be for any
developer willing to fix it, and the chances of success are considerably
higher if the 52 people here would spend time researching instead of
writing long, heated comments.

[Bug 407621] Re: (design decision) Icons missing from context menu , dialogue buttons , firefox bookmark favicons

2009-08-18 Thread Sandro Mani
Another issue: bug #387796 concerned actually _adding_ icons to the menu
(for the open-with application list), it is sort of counter-productive
to fix the bug there and then remove the icons again with this
setting...

[Bug 393158] Re: There is no warning message when inserting a forbidden symbol (/) in filename

2009-08-18 Thread ale-sandro
@Sebastien Bacher:
As Mac_v already said, the problem is that not everybody knows that / marks a 
subdirectory. Actually, an average user isn't even supposed to know that he is 
allowed to type the entire filepath in a box called Name . I myself wasn't 
aware of it for a long time, so I think that an informative warning about what 
you can and what you cannot put in there would be precious.

2009-08-04 Thread Sandro Mani
In my opinion this is a really bad design decision. I think a user
actually reads the text of the context menu he uses often only the first
few times, then remembers where the relevant entries are approximately
located and simply locates them by the icon. Like this the user always
has to double check and read if he is not by mistake pressing delete
(maybe bypassing trash) instead of what he actually wanted.

I experience the problem too, although only the shortcut does not work
only the first time I press it, if I press the shortcut twice, it works
fine. Usually it happens when I switch from some other application to
nautilus and press the shortcut, afterwards, as long as I work with
nautilus, everything works perfectly. But after working with some other
application again for some time, the issue is likely to occur again.

2009-06-29 Thread ale-sandro
@ Sebastien Bacher: it is very easily reproducible (it's rather a usability 
imperfection than a software bug).
You just need to create a new file (as I said above, I've tried this with 
Openoffice.org, Gedit, Archive manager, Brasero, Sound recorder and Gimp and 
they all had the same behaviour) and then give it a name containing a (/). It 
will appear a dialog saying
THE FOLDER CONTENTS COULD NOT BE DISPLAYED:
Error stating file 'home/ale/x' : no such file or directory

I think that such a message is misleading, as I said above (I have to
admit that I myself didn't understand is meaning until Ilya B came).  It
should be easy to find a more user-friendly sentence!

Thank you for your great job with Ubuntu

[Bug 36189] Re: Applets do not scale well with changing resolution

2009-05-01 Thread Sandro Mani
I've done some more testing (switching resolutions, logging out and in at 
different resolutions) and I must say that my applets always retain their 
correct position since when I've set all positioning values manually. Though 
what I noticed is that while right_stick is always preserved, positions change 
oddly, but consistently, i.e. before I had
right-applet-1: position=0
right applet-2: position=1
etc
and now I have
right-applet-1: position=-80
right-applet-2: position=-79
etc.

So from what I can tell, what one would have to do is:
1. fix the ways positions are stored when adding the applet (as stated above 
somewhere, I have the impression that manually added applets (always?) use left 
absolute positioning even if they are aligned to a stack of applets to the 
right)
2. once that is done, simply prevent any changes to gconf while changing 
resolution.

While the second step would brutally said only require to comment out
the right sections of the source, the first one would require an pretty
deep knowledge of GTK, i.e. how to detect if an applet touches a stack
of applets that are aligned to the right and count them, in order to use
relative positioning values (i.e. incrementing position values always by
one)

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 36189 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/36189

From my experience the issues are related in the fact that it is the way
gnome stores the positions of the applets that is problematic. Try,
after unlocking and relocking, to have a look at gconf under
/apps/panel/applets to see how the positions are stored. This would show
if the information is not updated at all or if the information is stored
chaotically.

[Bug 36189] Re: Applets do not scale well with changing resolution

2009-04-24 Thread Sandro Mani
From what I can judge the problem is not how the panel behaves when it
is resized, but how it behaves when adding applets to the panel, i.e.
practically always choosing to store the position as absolute from left,
instead of from right. In fact, once I corrected all the settings
manually in gconf, all applets retain their correct positions no matter
how often I change resolution, i.e. I would suggest gnome does not
really change any settings in the panel.

What would have to be done is, when adding an applet, make the panel
detect if the new applet touches an existing stack of applets that is
aligned to the left / right, and store the positioning of the new applet
consequently: either stick right enabled or disabled, and not using
full-width pixel positions, but rather storing à la index.

As said, I also do not think that the bug is only in gvfs (in fact, in my 
opinion it is not a bug in the common way, but a design issue with how gvfs 
deals with such problems), but it is mainly a problem with the different 
backends, mainly the cifs one (cfr CIFS VFS: Unexpected lookup error -112).

2009-04-02 Thread Sandro Mani
Starting from what package version should I be able to notice the
change? Currently I've got gvfs 1.2.0-0ubuntu2 and just today I had the
described issue when putting my laptop to sleep while a ssh share was
still mounted, then on resume nautilus, the gnome panels (i.e. pretty
much everything) hanged, in the virtual terminal messages such as

Apr  2 18:57:30 PC4 kernel: [37881.616153]  CIFS VFS: Error connecting to 
socket. Aborting operation
Apr  2 18:57:30 PC4 kernel: [37881.616166]  CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed 
w/return code = -113

appeared every few seconds. In the end, x crashed with

Apr  2 18:57:15 PC4 x-session-manager[15895]: WARNING: Failed to send buffer 
Apr  2 18:57:15 PC4 x-session-manager[15895]: WARNING: Failed to send buffer 
Apr  2 18:57:15 PC4 gdm[15349]: WARNING: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X 
error - Restarting :0 

(though I couldn't find any further information concerning the X crash).
Btw is the fix you mentioned for the gvfs part or also for the core-utilities 
part (i.e. the subsystem giving up sooner on unreachable hosts)?
Thanks

[Bug 36189] Re: Applets do not scale well with changing resolution

2009-04-01 Thread Sandro Mani
The best solution that works for me I've come up so far is the following:
The problem seems to be that gnome has difficulties to decide whether it should 
store the position of an applet as aligned to the left or to the right. 
Consequently, what I did was in the gconf-editor manually browse to
/apps/panel/applets
and under applets and objects, manually set the panel_right_stick and position 
keys to the correct values, incrementing the position value by just one pixel 
between the different applets/objects in order to be sure that they really 
stick as much left resp right as they should. I.e.:
main menu: position=0
firefox launcher: position=1
[...]
user switcher applet: stick right, position=0
date applet: stick right, position=1
volume applet: stick right, position=2

and so on - so far worked well after changing resolution several times,
applets always nicely ordered!

[Bug 341463] Re: Unreachable network mounts cause annoying hangs

2009-03-27 Thread Sandro Mani
The problem is not the program crashing, but I guess rather an issue with the 
way the behavior with shares is designed. The hang is only due to the cifs 
subsystem trying to access the unavailable share, and nautilus (and any other 
program that might want to access the share location, even the terminal, wait 
for the cifs subsystem to answer, which is what causes them to hang.
With my limited knowledge of the cifs subsystem I'd summarize the issue to the 
following points:
- CIFS waits too long before giving up accessing an unavailable share. It 
should either give up sooner or/and there should be a settable timeout option 
somewhere. Additional a brute-force option to the umount command would be 
usefull, as both -l and -f seem to want to contact the host before unmounting, 
which makes the process terribly slow.
- Nautilus and all nautilus-related applications hang if one instance tries to 
access an unavailable share, this because that specific instance waits for a 
response from the cifs subsystem.

I am not sure if this behavior is limited to cifs shares, possibly it is
the same for ssh shares and other. Also, I am not sure this issue has
only to do with gvfs: from what I can judge it is gvfs for the part that
concerns every nautilus-related application to hang, for the rest the
core utilities such as umount themselves.

[Bug 318684] Re: seahorse-agent crashed with SIGSEGV in g_object_newv()

2009-03-11 Thread Sandro Mani
Sorry for the long silence - I tried upgrading to 9.04 and noticed that
now the user is prompted to use the driver settings utility instead of
the display utility (as nvidia does not support the needed xrandr
extensions), which would solve the above problem. From what I can judge
the bug may also be closed.

[Bug 330745] Re: file-roller hangs a while when extracting item via drag and drop

2009-02-23 Thread Sandro Mani
Indeed it is not a crash, but a hang - after a few minutes (this on a
2.66GHz T9550). Looking a bit closer at the archive, the main issue
seems that it contains a huge amount of files (i.e. 32'000 files in one
folder). But what is strange is that the issue does NOT occur when
directly selecting extract here from the context menu... I guess the
profiling data best describes the hang.

Backtraced attached. I interrupted the program with ctrl+c after about
one minute, as otherwise the program would eventually recover from the
hangup and finish as expected, this providing no backtrace information.

[Bug 81339] Re: Cannot get laptop panel brightness

2008-10-18 Thread Sandro Mani
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 43572 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/43572

I get the result described in this bug in Intrepid 8.10 (used to work in
8.04). I am not quite sure if the issue I am experiencing is the same as
the one described in bug #43572. Changing the slider in the applet
actually does set the screen brightness correctly, but the applet fails
to show the percentage (displaying Cannot get laptop panel brightness)
for any level below 100%. Hardware is a Dell Inspiron 1720.
