I see that a lot of work has been done to get this change into precise,
but it is not clear to me what the status of this change is for raring
and saucy.

[Bug 408903] Re: Does not handle microphone mute button (KEY_MICMUTE)

2013-06-30 Thread Thomas Hood
I was about to test the new versions of the various packages but then I
noticed that x11proto-core isn't currently installed on my Ubuntu
Desktop 13.04 system. So clearly I am failing to understand something.
Exactly which package versions should I install on Ubuntu Desktop 13.04
in order to test the newly added support for the ThinkPad microphone
mute button?

[Bug 31286] Re: Displays repeated keyring dialogs on resume from suspend and login

2013-01-24 Thread Thomas Hood
From bug #1067555:

I found to reproduce this bug by 2 ways:

1. When not connected to a secured (without password saved) wifi, try to
connect to the secured wifi (do not type password or do anything), go
take a rest, unlock computer and see a lot of nm-applet dialog.

2. When not connected to a secured (without password saved) wifi, try to
connect to the secured wifi (do not type password or do anything);
repeat from the begining.

To fix this, the dataflow should be like this: On connect event: If
keyring-dialog is visible, do nothing, else if connection needs password
and password is not saved, display keyring-dialog.

[Bug 408903] Re: Does not handle microphone mute button (KEY_MICMUTE)

2012-01-12 Thread Thomas Hood
The microphone mute key yields Linux key input event KEY_MICMUTE which
has the value 248.  Add 8 to get the X KeyCode number, you get 256.
This is greater than the maximum KeyCode that X handles, 255.

See: http://www.x.org/wiki/XI2

The problem is similar to the problem with the Zoom hotkey combination
on the X220, Fn-Space.  The key combination yields KEY_ZOOM, value 372.
The corresponding X KeyCode, 380, is also above 255.

A workaround is to remap the keycodes to ones that X can handle.

See:
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Ubuntu_11.04_(Natty_Narwhal)_on_a_ThinkPad_X220#Fix_for_hotkey_shortcomings

(This page doesn't describe a way to control the LED on the Microphone
Mute key.)

[Bug 878277] [NEW] Keyboard Layout Options | Alt/Win behavior incomprehensible

2011-10-19 Thread Thomas Hood
Public bug reported:

Just upgraded to oneiric.

The Keyboard Layout Options | Alt/Win key behavior alternatives are:

* Default
- So what is the default?
* Add the standard behaviour to Menu key
- What is the standard behaviour?  What is its relation to the default?
- Which is the Menu key?
* Alt is mapped to Right Win, Super to Menu
- What does mapped to mean?  The term map is symmetrical, but the 
application here is asymmetrical.  Does this option map the Alt function to the 
Right Win key, or the Right Win function to the Alt keys?  Presumably the 
first, but it isn't clear.  Please say something like Alt functionality
* Alt and Meta are on Alt keys
- Does this mean that Alt functionality is mapped to the left Alt key and 
Meta to the right Alt key?  Or what?  Not clear.
* Left Alt is swapped with Left Win
- This and other options are not inherently mutually exclusive.  So why are 
these options on radio buttons?

A Help button on the dialog would be nice.

[Bug 408903] Re: Thinkpad T400s, T410s, T410, T510 microphone mute button does not work

2011-08-26 Thread Thomas Hood
The microphone mute key is not currently supported in Ubuntu but the fix
is fairly straightforward.

First, udev needs to map the micmute key's scancode to a keyname which
corresponds to an X key event.  This has been fixed[0] in udev upstream.
It is possible to make the same change locally, as described here[1].

Second, the key event needs to mute the microphone.  This can be
accomplished with a small script as described here[1].

Yes, there is an Alert volume slider with Mute button.  I didn't

I didn't know that they were the same thing.  My apologies.  It's true
that this slider has no effect on the volume of the sound that gets
played when the workaround (pactl upload-sample... and xset b 100)
is applied.

Regarding the workaround,  I have since discovered that pactl upload-

go in ~/.xprofile and xset b 100 has to go in ~/.bashrc.

2011-07-13 Thread Thomas Hood
 5) gnome-volume-control doesn't.
 The Sound Effects tab of gnome-volume-control
 offers to set the volume and sound for system bell
 events, but these have no effect. This is because
 gnome-volume-control is trying to control system
 bells through metacity. Ideally, it should be rewritten
 to control module-x11-bell instead, but a temporary
 fix could be to simply disable this tab.

In natty, on the Sound Effects tab there is no control for system bell
events.  So this part of the report seems fixed.

FYI, on a fresh natty install, as a workaround, to enable beeps (e.g.,
terminal bells) permanently I created a ~/.xprofile file with:

pactl upload-sample /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/glass.ogg bell.ogg
xset b 100

[Bug 486154] Re: System beep broken in Karmic despite heroic efforts to fix it

2011-05-06 Thread Thomas Hood
Pete, thanks for the information.

To summarize what I now know

There are several separate issues.  One is the traditional square-wave
beep function.  Many people say that it is necessary to:

  * Un-blacklist the pcspkr kernel module and load it.

However, I have just discovered that this module is not needed on a
Lenovo ThinkPad X61 for echo 3  /proc/acpi/ibm/beep to work.
The latter requires only the thinkpad-acpi module.

Orthogonal to that issue is getting terminal and other bells to
play in the new way, via X, the window manager and pulseaudio.

For the terminal bell to ring, it is still necessary to:

  * enable Terminal|Edit|Profile Preferences|General|Terminal bell
  * set gconf setting desktop|gnome|peripherals|keyboard|bell_mode
to on.

Under natty compiz then the gconf setting
apps | metacity | general | audible_bell makes no difference.

Before receiving the tip from Pete Ashdown I was re-enabling the
compiz-managed newfangled audible bell by deselecting and selecting
System Settings|CompizConfig Settings Manager|General|Audible Bell.
This actually enabled the traditional square-wave bell!

But now I see that
  * pactl upload-sample /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/glass.ogg 
bell.ogg
suffices to enable the newfangled bell.

After logging out and in the bell was still enabled without my having
to run xset, but I can imagine it may be necessary to run
  * xset b on
  * xset b 100
under some circumstances.

We shouldn't depend on upstream fixing this by removing
behavior that upstream regards as a feature.

It would be nice if upstream made their feature easier to disable.
But we shouldn't wait for them to do that, either, before fixing

* On the terminal window, tick Edit | Profile Preferences | General | 
Terminal bell
* Run gconf-editor and at apps | metacity | general tick audible_bell.
* Run gconf-editor and at desktop | gnome | peripherals | keyboard change

* Use the alsamixer program to unmute and raise Beep volume to a suitably

 In gnome-system-manager, memory used by a program is measured in 
 Kibibytes, Mebibytes, or Gibibytes, etc. According to the JEDEC memory
 standard, this is incorrect.

According to Ubuntu policy (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UnitsPolicy) it is correct
to use base-2 (i.e., kibibytes et al.) for RAM sizes.

[Bug 80780] Re: uses unusual units to report memory and disk sizes

2011-01-05 Thread Thomas Hood
I realize that this bug report is, according to the title, only about
memory and disk sizes, but comment #19 above mentions that network
throughput uses KB/s (in the tooltip) and I would like to point out
that this is indeed contrary to Ubuntu policy and the bug still exists
in Ubuntu 10.10.  According to Ubuntu policy
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UnitsPolicy), kilobytes should be symbolized
kB.

I was about to make this comment at #366235, since that began as a
report about incorrect network speed (throughput) units, but the
latter has been assigned to gnome-bugs #580471 where the discussion has
sidetracked into the question of whether the average user prefers to see
throughput measurements in bits or bytes, and into other questions.

Perhaps the decision whether to report bits or bytes can be left to
upstream; but let Ubuntu make sure that the symbols used always follow
Ubuntu standards.

[Bug 277948] Re: Virtual screen size too small when using dual head

2008-10-26 Thread Thomas Hood
I also have this problem.

Whatever underlying problem there has various misbehaviors as results.
Here is just one example.

I just tried to set the desktop image to a 3080x1050 image which exactly
fits my dual-monitor screen area (LVDS 1400x1050 and DVI-0 1680x1050).
The image would not display correctly using any of the Style settings
on Appearance Preferences | Background | Wallpaper.  Then I used
System | Screen Resolution to move the DVI to the left of LVDS; then
back to the right, restoring the original situation.  Then with Style
set to Fill screen the desktop background displayed correctly.

This suggests to me that nautilus's understanding of the screen
dimensions is not correctly synced with X's understanding of the screen
dimensions.

Another example: Sometimes after logging in the desktop comes up on both
monitors but I cannot move the mouse outside the LVDS.  Grabbing the
title bar I can move about 90% of a window onto the DVI-0 monitor.

Another bug which may or may not be related: The window list applet in
the LVDS doesn't show windows on the DVI-0 unless Window List Content
is set to Show windows from all workspaces.

[Bug 269244] Re: /usr/lib/libconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 256

2008-09-12 Thread Thomas Hood
I had the same problem: after entering username and password the GUI
hung with an empty brown desktop.

Installing gnome-panel fixed the problem for me.

[Bug 36946] Re: Screen Resolution tool (gnome-display-properties) does not change refresh rate, resolution in Dapper

2006-04-07 Thread Thomas Hood
I have the same problem.

I have a laptop which I use in several locations where I have several different 
external monitors that I like to use alongside the laptop's panel.  Last year I 
installed Breezy and added these lines to the Section Device for ATI 
Technologies, Inc. Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]:

Option  AGPMode   4
Option  AGPFastWrite  True
Option  EnablePageFlipTrue
Option  MergedFB  True
Option  CRT2Position  RightOf
 Option  MetaModes 1400x1050 1400x1050-1280x1024 
1400x1050-800x600 1400x1050-640x480

When I dist-upgraded to Dapper last week , initially X would not start at all.  
Something had overwritten xorg.conf.  I re-added the lines above and as a 
result I can use any of the external monitors *IF* I start X with that external 
monitor connected.  However, I cannot use 
System|Preferences|Screen_Resolution_Preferences|Resolution to change the 
resolution.  When I click Apply, the dialog box closes and, simply, nothing 
happens.  xrandr -s does work, though.
