[Bug 1076944] Re: Libreoffice crash when I try to save the files

2013-01-30 Thread Frank Zimmerman
I had a similar problem with Kubuntu 12.10. Someone suggested it was a
problem with the KDE Dialogs and ibus.

I turned off the KDE dialogs in LibreOffice options and no more
crash...but I think it could be related to something interacting with
the KDE dialogs (like ibus?).

Anyway, the LibreOffice dialogs aren't nearly as nice, but I haven't
experimented more to see if I could get it to work by removing some
other libraries...

[Bug 720446] Re: memory leak in compiz when using places, dashboard, and exposing launcher icons with multiple quicklists

2011-06-11 Thread Frank Zimmerman
Andreas,

Wish I could say the same...I'm still seeing a slow but steady creep in
memory on the Compiz process, and opening and closing Dash (with the
Super key, pressed repeatedly) shows a regular climb of about 0.5mb per
open/close. This is on a relatively new computer (Phenom Quad, 4GB Ram)
with Nvidia 8400GS PCIe card.

Was this patch ever applied? I'm seeing the same problem with Ubuntu
11.04, 64-bit, and the latest Evolution. The evolution-rss is listed
as 0.2.2-0ubuntu1. It's causing the same problem. If I remove this
package, inline pictures work again.

2011-06-06 Thread Frank Zimmerman
I have the same problem on a Toshiba Portege M400. Same version of Natty
(i386), same graphics (Intel 945). My screen resolution is 1400x1050. If
I toggle it down to 1024x768, it rotates okay. But if I leave it at the
native resolution, I get the black bar at the top of the screen.

[Bug 720446] Re: possible memory leak in compiz when using places, dashboard

2011-05-09 Thread Frank Zimmerman
I also saw a rapid rise in memory usage with compiz on an update from
10.10 to 11.04 on two different machines (both with Nvidia 8400GS).

So I tried a fresh, clean install on one of these computers. It seemed
fine for the first day, but the next day compiz was at 2GB memory usage.

I was also using indicator-multiload and terminated it. This stopped the
constant steady rise in compiz memory usage, but did not stop all memory
increase.

Now, with the System Monitor open and Compiz highlighted, I can bring up
either Dash (Super key), Alt-F2, or Apps (Super-a) and watch the Compiz
memory increase as I open and close these launchers. It goes up roughly
1MB per open/close.

So I think that it is more than just the multiload indicator...that
perhaps is something that shows up the problem more readily, but the
problem is deeper and remains.

[Bug 448600] Re: My machine froze while installing Sun JDK 6

2009-10-14 Thread Frank Zimmerman
This morning, I encountered the exact same error and consequences as
posted above while trying to install the Sun Java runtime and plugin.
I'm using the 9.10 beta, i386 version. I just noticed that I
accidentally have Firefox 3.0 installed as well as 3.5. I'm not sure if
that could have affected it. The unfortunate thing was that I had about
20 programs queued up for installation in the Software Center and now
they are all gone. It would be nice if this program had remembered the
list in event of crashes, and just continued installing when you started
it up next time.

[Bug 31037] Re: Vino-server takes 90% of cpu when only listening for incoming connections

2009-07-16 Thread Frank Zimmerman
I just noticed this behaviour of vino-server on a netbook (Acer
AspireOne) running Jaunty. It did not occur before. I tried a restart
and the CPU usage still went up after restart (to about 60%). Running
top from terminal showed vino-server near the top of the list. Ran a
killall on it and CPU went down to normal.

Someone mentioned capslock. I did happen to have caps lock on when I
first noticed the problem. But I don't have it on now, so I don't know
if that is related.

I also don't see the problem on my other computers yet (most of which
also run Jaunty).

[Bug 343714] Re: Kubuntu Jaunty KDE 4.2 very high memory usage

2009-05-13 Thread Frank Zimmerman
I just noticed a similar problem.  I just upgraded this computer (2 gb
RAM) to Jaunty last night (but I installed Ubuntu, not Kubuntu).  Now,
after about 6 hours of use my System Monitor shows 38% memory in use by
programs and 61% in use as cache.  We also have Ubuntu 9.04 on a Netbook
with 1.5gb of RAM, and it doesn't seem to have the same problem,
although it is not used heavily (mostly just a program or two open at a
time).  I just ran a test on another computer we have in the house with
2gb RAM and Jaunty recently installed.  It also shows the cache memory
climbing with each application opened, especially KDE apps, although I
only tested it for a while, and did not get it over about 50% combined
program RAM and Cache RAM.  My computer seems worse, but I'm using the
Kontact suite and a number of other KDE programs regularly.  This
problem did not exist in Ubuntu 8.10.  There is definitely something
going wrong here, but I can't pinpoint it.  I tried killing processes,
but couldn't get the cache ram to go down.

[Bug 343714] Re: Kubuntu Jaunty KDE 4.2 very high memory usage

2009-05-13 Thread Frank Zimmerman
One more note: I was able to get rid of the excessive cache ram by
issuing the following commands from terminal:

sudo su
echo 1  /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
echo 2  /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
echo 3  /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches

That doesn't solve the problem, but at least keeps the system going a
little longer...

[Bug 376292] [NEW] Editing date field causes weird behaviour

2009-05-13 Thread Frank Zimmerman
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org

I have a simple spreadsheet that I use to track my home-based business.

It has a date field in the first column on the left, and since the sheet
is only for the current year, I've chosen to format the field as Jan
01, leaving the year hidden.

I usually just copied the format down the column to the next cells
(either by dragging the small square on the right corner, or by
selecting all the cells and choosing the format as MMM DD). So, when I
entered a new row, I just typed in the current Month/Day, and the year
was assumed (and formatted but hidden) to be the same as the last entry.

This worked fine until the recent update to OpenOffice (3.0.1).  Now
when I try to enter, for example, Mar 21, as soon as I leave the cell it
gets set to Mar 01, and the year is taken from the day number (usually),
so the above example would yield Mar 01, 2021.  Very annoying!  It is
not a problem if I format the MM DD as numbers, such as 05-01, but only
when I type in the Month as a string.

This used to work!  I just tried the same exercise in Gnumeric and it
works the way it used to in Open Office...so I'm can't be doing it
wrong.
