[Bug 517750] Re: udev rules under /etc have incorrect path to firmware files

2019-03-10 Thread Ben Shadwick
I'm running Ubuntu MATE 18.04.2 in VirtualBox 6, and have my MidiSport
UNO routed to the VM. This package isn't working for me.

It doesn't install anything in /etc/udev/rules.d, although it does in
/lib/udev/rules.d.

I tried copying the /lib/udev/rules.d/42-midisport-firmware.rules to the
corresponding /etc location and rebooting, and the device shows up as
"MidiSport 1x1" in ALSA utilities, but attempting to send data to a
synthesizer via the interface does not work.

[Bug 1577029] Re: ubuntu-mate-desktop depends on both caja and nautilus

2016-04-30 Thread Ben Shadwick
Looks like it was actually libnautilus-extension1a that was triggering
the ubuntu-desktop uninstall, which got picked up when I tried to do a
sudo apt-get purge '.*nautilus.*'.

libnautilus-extension1a is required by deja-dup, but it's probably fine.

[Bug 1577029] [NEW] ubuntu-mate-desktop depends on both caja and nautilus

2016-04-30 Thread Ben Shadwick
Public bug reported:

When I install ubuntu-mate-desktop, I end up with two file managers
being installed. Shouldn't Ubuntu MATE ship only a single one by default
in order to keep things more streamlined/focused?

ben@shodan:~$ sudo aptitude why caja
i   ubuntu-mate-desktop Depends caja
ben@shodan:~$ sudo aptitude why nautilus
i   ubuntu-mate-desktop Dependscheese  
i A cheese  Recommends nautilus-sendto 
i A nautilus-sendto Dependsnautilus (>= 1:2.91)

If I try to purge either package, apt demands that ubuntu-mate-desktop
and other dependent packages also be uninstalled.

FYI, I installed Ubuntu MATE via http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate-
dev/trusty-mate/ubuntu + http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate-
dev/ppa/ubuntu PPAs. My original installation was Xubuntu 14.04.4 Trusty
LTS x64, but I decided to convert.

[Bug 583994] Re: Consider replacing ntpdate calls by 'ntpd -g'

2015-04-19 Thread Ben Shadwick
@aquina:

ntpd doesn't have to be shipped with a configuration that will launch it
as a daemon. It can easily be used to do ntpdate's job without
daemonizing.

Also, the ntpd binary is actually only around 2/3 the size of the
ntpdate binary, so I think you may be backwards on which one is bloated.

[Bug 371897]

2014-05-15 Thread Ben Shadwick
While I agree, there's sadly no point in arguing. The Wine devs are so
irrationally close-minded about this issue that they even resorted to
semi-personal attacks against people attempting to provide winepulse
audio drivers and citing of silly procedural issues as an excuse to
avoid having to incorporate fixes.

It's always sad and frustrating to see open source projects be so
insensitive to the concerns of end-users, but when people go so far as
to contribute actual code changes and still be rejected out of hand,
there's just nothing to be done.

Situations like this are what cause a lot of projects to fork, which is
the worst way for things to work themselves out because it causes the
community to split their efforts.

Note that the sourceforge page now has a .deb package for amd64, which
installed fine for me on Kubuntu 13.10 x64 except for the fact that
g15stats is not configured to start up by default.

What is the process for getting this updated at the Ubuntu level if the

This bug is going to be ignored unless you can get someone to revert the
fix released status. I've contacted some of the people who set that
status on this bug, and I suggest that others do the same.

Personally I have no stake in this any more, since I ditched Ubuntu
proper and have been using derivatives such as Xubuntu, Mint and
XMBCBuntu that do not use Unity.

[Bug 371897]

2012-10-16 Thread Ben Shadwick
Yet another user chiming in here (how many will it take?):

I see no mention here of technical objections to Maarten's work; in
fact, it sounds as if the Wine development team turned their noses up at
it without even looking it over. So Maarten committed a faux-pas by
submitting his patch at a bad time; is this ***really*** such a harsh
crime that you are doing right by the end-users in punitively
ostracizing him? Seriously?

This all looks like more of the same silly bureaucratic/political
posturing to me that we've been seeing here all along, which is a huge
disservice to us end-users who are still waiting for this major 5-year-
old issue to be properly resolved. You should be ashamed of yourselves
for acting so self-righteous, both at the expense of us end-users and as
an insult to the greater spirit of collaborative open-source software
development.

My advice is to have Andrew stop wasting time reinventing the wheel, and
at least review Maarten's work and collaborate with him to work through
any issues prior to merging. We all know that Maarten has a very mature
patch that is already being field-tested by hundreds (at least) of end-
users, and he has been very eager for and responsive to feedback. We're
not being fooled into thinking that Maarten or his work should be
shunned.

[Bug 388547] Re: Volume keys don't work inside a full-screen game

2012-10-09 Thread Ben Shadwick
Leonardo: That's a good idea, but it would never work due to the fact
that the entire issue here is that Ubuntu allows apps to take control of
the entire keyboard.

No special key combinations or multimedia keys are serviced by the
window manager when full-screen games are running, so the only key
combinations that work are those serviced by the OS and maybe the
session manager.

The real fix is to mimic the behavior of other OSes in not allowing
full-screen applications to completely override the window manager's
keyboard handler. Unfortunately this is an X.Org issue, and they're
probably never going to fix it because they just don't understand why
they should have to.

Ubuntu will never be taken seriously as a desktop gaming platform until
this is resolved. Maybe Valve will fix it for them as part of trying to
make Ubuntu into a Steam platform :)

[Bug 160311] Re: Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult

2012-07-17 Thread Ben Shadwick
** Description changed:

  *
-  No more comments needed 
  
  This should mostly be fixed for Natty and might get backported to
  earlier releases as well.
  
  For Precise (12.04)  this is again broken for unity-2d (as of 17.7.2012 
unity-2d 5.12.0-0ubuntu1.1).
  Note that if the window has a scrollbar, you can grab that to resize the 
window. If not, you are stuck with the 1px border. Workaround: NONE KNOWN (see 
comment 320)?
  
  *
  
  *Blueprint for Natty, Ubuntu 11.04:
  
  https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/packageselection-dx-n
  -resizing-windows
  
  Work items1 * Make sure the new resize grip fits in current applications; 
doesn't interfere with anything. We should make some noise about this during 
the Natty cycle so people keep their eyes open and file bugs.
  2 * Invisible window resize area - around 3px invisible area to allow resize 
on all sides.
  
  *
  
  Working grip backported to gtk2 already available in ppa :
  https://launchpad.net/~bratsche/+archive/gtk
  
  *
  
  Workaround:  Edit /usr/share/themes/Ambiance/metacity-1/metacity-
  theme-1.xml.  Set the following values in frame_geometry_normal as
  desired:
  
  distance name=left_width value=3/
  distance name=right_width value=3/
  distance name=bottom_height value=3/
  
  
  
  Binary package hint: metacity
  
  - The issue has been an issue for users (especially of large) screens
  for several releases- Trackpad users seem to be particularly impacted by
  this- The issue appears to have been significantly aggravated in Lucid
  by changing the border width from 3 pixels to 1 pixel
  
  The window borders in metacity are far too thin to be used for
  comfortable window resizing, and resize handles are not available in all
  applications (or even most). In fact, of all the windows I have open
  right now, not a single one of them has a resize handle. The result is
  that I get a lot of misses when I try to drag a window border, which
  usually results in my clicking on the wrong window altogether. The best
  fix for this usability bug is to create an invisible region around
  each non-maximized window about 4px thick that can be used for resizing
  (in addition to the visible border). Or perhaps there should be a border
  thickness option on the System  Preferences  Windows dialog (although
  the default thickness should still be increased considerably). Ideally
  all windows would also have a resize handle but I realize that these
  have to be application controlled (at least that seems to be the
  position of the metacity team).

I'm also seeing this in Xubuntu 12.04 x64. I've tried running via a

I believe the scores file issue is meant to be fixed by adding the user

 Maarten is aware, the issue was discussed in more depth on IRC.

According to Maarten, you are mistaken: apparently the latest version of
his patch has been rejected out of hand with no consideration
whatsoever. I find this news to be rather concerning, as is the fact
that nobody seems to be on the same page about the situation.

(In reply to comment #345)
 It looks like from here:
 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.wine.patches/103536
 that the patch that makes a pulseaudio driver is coming back sooner rather 
 than
 later. There is also a 1.4rc5 source of wine that will build with a pulseaudio
 driver here: http://repo.or.cz/w/wine/multimedia.git
 
 I have tested it with civ5 and no problems so far.

Apparently Wine has again rejected a winepulse patch after Maarten
Lankhorst put a bunch of work into improving it in his
wine/multimedia.git repo (http://repo.or.cz/w/wine/multimedia.git).

A discussion thread has been started about it on the Ubuntu forums:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1960599

I'm actually a bit confused about the current state of things, as Art
Taylor declared his earlier versions of the winepulse patch to be
obsolete due to Wine's mmdevapi implementation, but then Maarten pulled
it into his wine/multimedia.git repo and did a bunch more work on it.

  Apparently Wine has again rejected a winepulse patch after Maarten Lankhorst
  put a bunch of work into improving it in his wine/multimedia.git repo
  (http://repo.or.cz/w/wine/multimedia.git).
 
 Would you please provide some ground for your statement about rejection of the
 patch? 

Alexey,

I only know what I read at the two links that I posted. I have asked for
more information on the Ubuntu forum thread, but have not yet received a
reply.

I believe the forum post may have been made by Maarten himself (but I am
not 100% certain), and it was certainly Maarten who recently added the
following comment to his v16 version of the winepulse patch:

-
+/* Give one visible warning per session
+ * Sadly wine has chosen not to accept the winepulse patch, so support 
ourselves
+ */
+if (!warn_once  (warn_once = CreateEventA(0, 0, 0, 
__winepulse_warn_event))  GetLastError() != ERROR_ALREADY_EXISTS) {
+FIXME_(winediag)(Winepulse is not officially supported by the wine 
project\n);
+FIXME_(winediag)(For sound related feedback and support, please visit 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1960599\n;);

Here is the commit in which that comment was added:

 Argh, bad luck then :-(. Hope it isn't a final resolution for this path, as 
 PA,
 being a plague of a modern linux desktop, seems to be one of the things that
 Wine would have to cope with.

Indeed, and I have argued the same in this discussion. Unfortunately for
us end-users, the Wine leadership seems to think that denying the
prevalence of Pulseaudio is the best solution.

It's sad that this basic usability bug affecting all users is over 4

As far as I know, gizmod is the only way I can get my multimedia

This issue still exists in Xubuntu 11.10 (and presumably Ubuntu 11.10).
Unfortunately, gizmod is no longer an easy solution because it was
dropped from the Ubuntu 11.10 repositories due to the fact that it no

[Bug 41994] Re: closed Laptop Lid to reliably keep Backlight off

2011-10-13 Thread Ben Shadwick
I can't believe this is another 5+ year old bug that is still
unresolved. I am experiencing this issue on Ubuntu/Xubuntu 11.04. The
problem is that somehow dpms calls are being made to turn the backlight
back on when a mouse event occurs, even though the lid is still shut.

I ran into some difficulty because the Ubuntu acpi-support scripts don't
run if they detect a desktop (gnome/kde/xfce/etc) power-manager app
running. It's a pain to have to kill those, because I lose all GUI-based
power management (battery indicator, etc.) on my laptop. However, I got
so fed up with this issue that I felt it was worth it to block the
power-manager app so that acpid could run the show.

In the end, the best solution I could find was to run lid.sh on a
1-minute recurring cron job. This forces the backlight off when the lid
is closed and on when it's open. Not a very elegant solution, but at
least I won't have to worry about burning out my laptop's monitor any
more.

Also vbetool did not work for me. Specifically, it was able to turn off
the backlight, but was not able to turn it back on. After using vbetool
to turn off the backlight, I had to switch to a text console and back to
get the backlight to come back on!

[Bug 371897]

2011-10-12 Thread Ben Shadwick
(In reply to comment #333)
 I usually agree with the 'stick to latest versions' thing, but I believe one
 thing should be noted here:
 http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page_News
 The official ALSA releases have been kind of rare lately (1 during 2010, and
 the latest being 2011-01-31), so the only way to keep it updated is to 
 actually
 compile it, which can be a problem for those users who don't have a clue on 
 how
 to do it; just think at those who try Linux (mostly Ubuntu) and then find out
 their games/programs aren't working as they expected under Wine (and believe
 me, I've seen way too many of those)... 
 I don't want to sound harsh, but unless there's a better way to keep
 alsa-plugins updated (at least to a version that does make the sound work), PA
 shouldn't be considered 'supported through alsa'
That sounds backwards from my understanding of how things work, at least on 
Ubuntu. I thought that PulseAudio is in charge of everything by default, and 
when an app (like Wine) thinks it's using ALSA in this setup, it's actually 
using a wrapper provided by PulseAudio that translates ALSA calls to PulseAudio 
calls?

2011-09-30 Thread Ben Shadwick
(In reply to comment #326)
 Yes, PulseAudio is supported through its ALSA compatibility plugin. It's
 possible that a PulseAudio driver might happen at some point, but there's no
 plans for one at the moment.
 There's some more information here: http://wiki.winehq.org/Sound
Thanks Andrew, but this makes it sound like none of the Wine compatibility 
issues with PulseAudio have been addressed on Wine's end via the mmdevapi 
rewrite. Is this true?

A link from your link suggests that a PulseAudio alsa-plugin fix may be
in Ubuntu 11.10 that addresses buffer underrun issues. This is a good
thing, but does mean that those stuck on other Ubuntu versions (or non-
Ubuntu distros using older PulseAudio versions) may still have issues
with Wine + pulseaudio.

[Bug 221363] Re: Policy Kit Unlock Buttons Greyed Out when using NX / VNC / LTSP

2011-09-12 Thread Ben Shadwick
I'm unsure as well, and given the fact that my gdm bug report is still
listed as UNCONFIRMED after 4+ months, so I'm not too
motivated/encouraged at this point to perform the legwork necessary to
report this issue everywhere.

It also doesn't do a single thing to prevent future developers from
making the same mistake.

Like Derek, I also wonder if allow_active is *ever* appropriate to be
used in favor of allow_any (at least by default). I did a search-and-
replace on all files in that directory at one point, but I'm pretty sure
that my changes have been slowly regressing as updated versions of the
affected components are installed on my system.

[Bug 371897]

2011-08-08 Thread Ben Shadwick
Thanks for the update, Stefan. I dug some links out of the repos in case
anyone is interested:

Looks like a winepulse driver was added to Maarten's unstable audio
changes fork of the Wine source (
http://repo.or.cz/w/wine/multimedia.git/commit/ee9bf8dfd43ce818d4f5ac48b08bde5e3031f945
). Subsequent commits show continued work on the winepulse driver. This
is exciting news, but I think it may be a while before we see these
become official (I think this branch may be part of the long-term effort
to implement the mmdevapi stuff).

In the official Wine source, however, I do see an ALSA underrun fix for
Pulse users from Andrew Eikum (
http://repo.or.cz/w/wine.git/commit/9ad60d1d143809c6ae477eb53e75c3dc93736e0e
). It is mentioned in the release notes for Wine 1.3.26 (
http://www.winehq.org/announce/1.3.26 ), so that build might work better
for some people.

[Bug 371897]

2011-05-03 Thread Ben Shadwick
(In reply to comment #314)
 I'm no expert, but here's what I know. 
 In ubuntu, the standard way to not have pulseaudio is to disable it among the
 start menu options, and then edit
 /etc/pulse/client.conf 
 so that autospawn is uncommented and changed to no.
 
 Wine uses the default soundcard, so changing the default soundcard should use 
 a
 little script in the user's file called .asoundrc
 
 which should have as its text something that points to whatever soundcard you
 want to use. The following is a sample script that points away from the 
 onboard
 card (which is 0) and to the installed pc card, which is technically card #1,
 at least on my machine. 
 
 pcm.!default {
 type hw
 card 1
 }
 ctl.!default {
 type hw   
 card 1
 }
 
 I realize that this is all useless for someone still trying to make pulseaudio
 work with wine, even using pasdp.

I appreciate the info, but I fear that discussion of end-user
workarounds may serve only to derail discussion of a real fix unless the
Wine developers really have no intention of working this issue.

It should also be mentioned that this workaround has also already been
discussed here. In fact, I recently commented that it causes me to lose
the ability to adjust Wine's volume in Ubuntu via the volume buttons on
both my laptop and my USB keyboard :(

[Bug 762926] Re: Dash should organize installed apps by categories

2011-05-02 Thread Ben Shadwick
Considering that this is the main interface that everyone is going to
see first when trying to launch apps via Unity, I see this as a serious
usability issue and am both concerned and greatly disappointed to see
that it has been so quickly wishlisted :( For me personally, this
usability issue resulted in replacing Unity with GNOME 3 (plus KDE, LXDE
and XFCE for fun) on one of my two Ubuntu 11.04 boxes.

I also just found out that you can supposedly right-click the
application lens (or launcher or whatever it is called) to get a
category list. This might be seen as an acceptable
workaround/implementation, but I never thought to try that because it is
unintuitive! I'm also wondering how touchscreen users would access that,
although I myself am not one of them.

[Bug 221363] Re: Policy Kit Unlock Buttons Greyed Out when using NX / VNC / LTSP

2011-04-30 Thread Ben Shadwick
I'm seeing this issue with both Maverick and now Natty with x2goserver-
one.

jhansonxi's fix doesn't work for me.

I'm using system-tools-backends 2.10.1-2ubuntu1, so maybe Milan's fix
will flow down soon?

What's the best workaround at this point?

2011-04-30 Thread Ben Shadwick
Milan: Thanks. That seems to have at least partially fixed things, as
update-manager and users-admin are now properly prompting for password
and allowing access to locked items.

Unfortunately the Unlock button of gdmsetup still doesn't work, but
maybe something else is going on there? If I run it from console I get
no message when clicking Unlock.

Thanks again. I was able to fix gdmsetup by making the suggested changes
to gdm.policy.

I'd happily submit a bug report if I knew where and what to report.

[Bug 371897] Re: Occasional sound drops in Wine via PulseAudio

2010-12-09 Thread Ben Shadwick
Over the course of this year I've been occasionally using Wine 1. 2 and
1.3 on Ubuntu 10.04 x64 and 10.10 x64 on my Dell XPS M1730 laptop. I've
always started out using the default PulseAudio setup in Ubuntu and the
Alsa output in Wine, but this results in almost all menu sounds in
Baldur's Gate having their first half second or so cut off. This does
not happen when I use a Wine 1.2 or 1.3 version with the winepulse patch
built in that is then configured to use the PulseAudio output.

Also, pasuspender doesn't work for me. It causes games in Wine to freeze
when they'd normally start making their first sound. Killing pulse when
set to not autorespawn does work, but then I lose the ability to change
volume via the volume buttons on my laptop and Gnome and other apps tend
to seize up when failing to connect to pulse in order to produce sounds.

2010-10-18 Thread Ben Shadwick
georgehu: It's actually currently a per-theme setting in the theme
definition files, and there are some themes that are set to provide
thicker grab bars than others. In my personal opinion it should be a
theme-independent setting that is configurable by end-users via a GUI
control.

Alden: I agree 100%, and this is why I think it should be something that
can be easily controlled by the end-user rather than dictated by the
particular theme. It's a usability issue, not an aesthetic one.

It would be nice to see some discussion of a theme-independent solution
to this issue. Expecting end-users to edit per-theme configuration files
is a non-ideal solution at best. This is a huge ease-of-use issue for me
and many others: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/2571/
