English (United States) is my locale.

[Bug 275344] Re: Gnome shows title of window of KDE applications as %c
I found another program that does it on this machine. Kopete in GNOME also shows %c as its title. I have tried issuing one command at a time and then quiting and restarting kopete, but I still see the title as %c. I have also tried issuing all the commands at one, some result. xprop output attached. ** Attachment added: xprop http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18313889/xprop -- Gnome shows title of window of KDE applications as %c https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275344 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 275344] Re: Gnome shows title of window of KDE applications as %c
Thanks for doing that. This is quite interesting. The xprop file you attach contains the line: WM_NAME(STRING) = %c This indicates that Kopete itself is claiming that its title is %c, rather than that any window manager is misinterpreting it. Furthermore, if all of metacity, kwin, and compiz show this effect, it can't be a window-manager-specific problem. The question is, then, why KDE applications are doing this. I should reassign this somewhere, but I'm not sure where. However, can you tell me whether you're running in a locale other than US English? It may be a translation error. -- Gnome shows title of window of KDE applications as %c https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275344 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 275344] Re: Gnome shows title of window of KDE applications as %c
Thanks for your report. I have just run KSig under GNOME on Hardy and it shows KSig as the title. So since I can't see it, please could you test some things? 1. Go through these commands and tell us whether you still see %c as the title: compiz --replace metacity --replace kwin --replace (I assume from what you say that you have all three installed. If not, it would be helpful if you did.) 2. Get KSig or any other application showing this behaviour, then run xprop from a terminal, click on the app with the crosshairs, and copy or attach xprop's output here.

Thank you for reporting this bug. Which version of Ubuntu are you using, and does the same thing occur if you try it out on another ubuntu computer? ** Changed in: metacity (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None = metacity ** Changed in: metacity (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- Gnome shows title of window of KDE applications as %c https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275344 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 275344] Re: Gnome shows title of window of KDE applications as %c
This is in hardy 8.04.1. Yes, I have tested this on many ubuntu computers and in KSig the window is always %c. This happens with a lot of KDE applications when run in gnome. -- Gnome shows title of window of KDE applications as %c https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275344 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to metacity in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
