[Bug 884941] Re: Ctrl-L on desktop puts location on the top of the screen (when using no toolbars)

2011-12-01 Thread Mark Wilkinson
Hmm; it may be a bug that's present in the upstream version, but I can't
seem to reproduce it on Oneiric when logged in to a guest GNOME session
(i.e. one using gnome-shell). It may be that there's some behaviour that
blocks Ctrl-L when nautilus is running under gnome-shell that isn't
working under Unity.

That said, the functionality of being able to open an arbitrary folder
is quite handy so it'd be a loss to lose it completely.

[Bug 884941] Re: Ctrl-L on desktop puts location on the top of the screen (when using no toolbars)

2011-12-01 Thread Mark Wilkinson
Nautilus handling the desktop under gnome-shell seems to be the default
for the guest session, according to gnome-tweak-tool and observed
behaviour. For example, right clicking on the desktop allows you to
create new folders and documents. The Ctrl-L bar is definitely not
appearing: there's nothing taking input focus so typing '/tmpReturn'
doesn't open a file browser, and the wallpaper doesn't shift as you've
observed it does when the Ctrl-L bar does appear.

I don't have gnome-panel installed at the moment so can't compare the
behaviour there.

[Bug 884941] Re: Ctrl-L on desktop puts location bar behind panel

2011-11-30 Thread Mark Wilkinson
Ok, here's a screenshot of what I see when I press Ctrl-L on my login.

I've tried reproducing while using the guest session, but it doesn't
seem to have the same problem. This suggests it could be something to do
with the settings that I have accumulated from previous versions of
nautilus, but I'm unsure what setting turns this behaviour on.

Ah, worked it out. Open a normal nautilus window and choose View  Main
Toolbar to remove the toolbar from nautilus windows. Click on the
desktop and press Ctrl-L and the location field appears at the top of
the desktop, behind the Unity panel.

[Bug 884941] [NEW] Ctrl-L on desktop puts location bar behind panel

2011-11-01 Thread Mark Wilkinson
Public bug reported:

When using Unity, clicking on the desktop to give it the keyboard focus
and then pressing Ctrl-L causes a location bar to appear behind (and
partly obscured by) the Unity panel, and the icons on the desktop
shuffle down slightly. In previous versions using Gnome 2 this shortcut
would bring up a dialogue box in which you could type the path name of a
folder to open, which was very handy. The functionality still works, but
the presentation is obviously incorrect.

From the article in the previous comment it looks like this might be a
duplicate of bug #740126. Plenty of discussion and investigation going
on there.

[Bug 785521] Re: In 11.04 ~/.Xresources fails to load correctly after login from gdm

2011-06-03 Thread Mark Wilkinson
I've just run into this too, after trying to hook the Solarized colour
scheme Xresources https://github.com/altercation/solarized/blob/master
/xresources-colors-solarized/Xresources into my ~/.Xresources file.
Because the file isn't being processed by the C preprocessor any more
the preprocessor symbols don't get expanded and, in my case, urxvt
(rxvt-unicode) substitutes bright pink for the colours it can't make
sense of.

It's a bit misleading, because a first look around would suggest that
the resources are loaded by /etc/X11/Xsession.d/30x11-common_xresources
and there the -nocpp option isn't used. It's only when you dig a bit
deeper that you spot the the resources are actually loaded in
/etc/gdm/Xsession with the -nocpp option. Further, where
/etc/gdm/Xsession does run through the scripts in /etc/X11/Xsession.d,
it doesn't set up the environment completely. The fix to bug #398300
added some of the required environment variables (around lines 290 to
294) but didn't finish the job by setting up everything that
/etc/X11/Xsession would do.

The workaround that I posted in bug #398300 still works for this bug:
Create a ~/.xprofile that contains the following:

SYSRESOURCES=/etc/X11/Xresources
USRRESOURCES=$HOME/.Xresources

and the 30x11-common_xresources script should work as intended. It seems
a bit redundant as it duplicates behaviour from the /etc/gdm/Xsession
script - xrdb is being run more times than really is necessary. But it
works for me.

Of course, I don't expect this to get fixed. The next release will
replace gdm with LightDM so we'll have a new session setup script to
debug.

2011-05-18 Thread Mark Wilkinson
A quick run through the comments suggests that the Intel graphics
adaptor might be a common factor here. Is anyone having this problem on
a system that isn't using Intel graphics? If not, that may implicate
xserver-xorg-video-intel.

[Bug 398300] Re: The new gdm doesn't give an option to use .xsession

2009-12-09 Thread Mark Wilkinson
I've got an alternative explanation for what's going wrong here. The
default GNOME session runs gnome-session and this in turn runs
/etc/gdm/Xsession as mentioned in comment #14. As pointed out there,
/etc/gdm/Xsession runs through the session scripts in
/etc/X11/Xsession.d. This includes 50x11-common_determine-startup which
should cause ~/.xsession to be picked up. What's going wrong is that a
set of environment variables that are normally set by /etc/X11/Xsession
are not set by /etc/gdm/Xsession, including things like USERXSESSION. So
when the scripts run they don't behave as designed.

A simple kludge to get things working is to observe that
/etc/gdm/Xsession sources /etc/xprofile and ~/.xprofile very early on,
and we can use one of these files to set the environment up correctly
for the Xsession.d scripts. Stick the attached script into /etc/xprofile
(or ~/.xprofile) and see if that gets .xsession working again. It works
for my dot files that depend on .xsessionrc getting sourced.

I'm not sure what a more correct fix would look like as I haven't delved
into which files are sourced from Debian/Ubuntu sources and which are
from upstream (and hence less favourable for changes).
