[Bug 353826] Re: Thumbnails in Nautilus have the wrong orientation

2009-04-22 Thread Tom Kirby
Phil, thank you so much! That solves the problem for me too. I can't
understand why, because it was happening with photos imported since I
upgraded to Jaunty.

I still get the problem that when I set a rotated photo as a desktop
background, it shows up wrongly oriented. This happens even for a fresh
user, so it's not a problem with my config. Has a bug been reported for
this?

2009-04-21 Thread Tom Kirby
OK, so now it turns out (using current Jaunty) that the problem doesn't
occur if I create a brand new user and test with the same image. Does
anyone have any idea how I can fix this without taking the risk of
wiping out my entire GNOME config?

[Bug 353826] [NEW] [Jaunty] Thumbnails in Nautilus have the wrong orientation

2009-04-02 Thread Tom Kirby
Public bug reported:

When I import photos from my Canon EOS 400D (I think this is a Digital
Rebel XTi in the US), the ones taken with a portrait orientation
appear rotated through 90 degrees.

The camera is of the type that automatically senses what orientation
you took the photos at - I think it then writes this in the EXIF data.
Nautilus used to deal with this correctly in Intrepid, but in Jaunty it
shows them un-rotated.

Did Nautilus previously display thumbnails by reading the whole image
and scaling it? And does it now do so by taking the existing embedded
thumbnail from the image file? This is the impression I get, because it
is now way quicker than it used to be at creating the thumbnails. My
suspicion is that the new thumbnail code doesn't honour the EXIF tag
that determines orientation.

I attach a screenshot: you can see that for the photo selected, gThumb
reports the value of the Auto rotate tag as being Rotate 270 degrees
CW; with a landscape photo, gThumb reports this value as None.

My Nautilus version is 2.26.0-0ubuntu4, and I'm using the pre-release of
Jaunty Jackalope.

[Bug 191889] Re: [MASTER] [WORKAROUND] Offline Mode feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager.

2008-10-08 Thread Tom Kirby
I'm getting this problem in Intrepid with NM 0.7. This might be because
I have the following setup:

eth0: wired Ethernet, always connected
eth1: used for a wireless device that is currently unplugged

Will this be fixed before Intrepid comes out?

[Bug 186345] Re: histogram disappears in gimp's curves tool

2008-02-04 Thread Tom Kirby
Looks like I've found out what's going on.

Basically, the colour of the graph and its background are linked to
colours in the current theme. Looking at the Colours tab in the
Customize Theme box from the Appearance preferences, it seems that the
graph itself is set to the Windows colour, whilst the background is
set to the Input Boxes colour.

To make the graph visible, all you need to do is  go to
System-Preferences-Appearance-Themes-Customize-Colours, and set the
Windows theme and Input Boxes theme to different settings, e.g.
#CC and #FF respectively.

I'm not sure the curves tool should use colours from the theme, in case
these two colours get set to be identical, thus making the graph
disappear.

Any ideas? Shall I pass this on upstream to the Gimp devs?

Tom

[Bug 186345] [NEW] histogram disappears in gimp's curves tool

2008-01-27 Thread Tom Kirby
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gimp

Hi,

I'm using Gutsy (Ubuntu 7.10) and Gimp  2.4.2-0ubuntu0.7.10.1.

When I bring up the curves tool, the histogram appears briefly, and
immediately disappears. This happens every time. I think it might only
have started happening when the package manager updated gimp from the
release candidate version that came with Gutsy to the full 2.4.2
release.

It's a really annoying bug, because it prevents me from adjusting the
curves on an image properly, so help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Tom Kirby

[Bug 109579] Re: thumbnail problems with relative soft-links

2007-05-07 Thread Tom Kirby
I can't get thumbnails in symlinked directories either.

/home/tom/Desktop/2007-05/ is a symlink pointing to
/home/tom/pictures/photos_archive/2007-05/.

If I open ~/Desktop/2007-05/ in Nautilus, and then double-click one of
the photos to open it with gthumb, then go to the browser view, no
thumbnails appear.

If, on the other hand, I go to
/home/tom/pictures/photos_archive/2007-05/ in gthumb, all the
thumbnails show up.

I don't know whether this is a problem with gthumb or gnomevfs, as it
could be to do with an error in detecting whether or not the directory
in question is a network share.

I have attached the output I get from gthumb when using
~/Desktop/2007-05/. I get no output at all when I use
~/pictures/photos_archive/2007-05/.

Changing the thumbnail setting in Nautilus to allow viewing thumbnails
on network shares does not solve the problem.

I did not get this problem in Edgy.

[Bug 46217] Re: totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin gives an error in a page

2006-12-17 Thread Tom Kirby
I'm no longer getting the same specific problem on the same specific
page. This could be due to the fact that I'm now on Edgy, or that the
page has changed, or I might have installed some different
firefox/gstreamer plugin since the problem first occurred. Will try to
report back with more info later.

[Bug 46217] Re: totem-gstreamer-firefox-plugin gives an error in a page

2006-08-23 Thread Tom Kirby
I am experiencing rather irritating problems visiting
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/uk/

I don't just get one error message, but hundreds. They just keep coming,
which is a far worse bug than a missing codec, as it means I have to
quit Firefox to stop the messages clogging up my system. In fact, I'd go
as far as to say that there's the slightest chance this could constitute
a potential security hole in Firefox/Totem on systems that have the
Firefox Totem plugin but not the WMV9 Totem plugin.

In other words, this could be serious.

The error looks something like: Totem could not play
'mms://.../wm.rootmedia/84/84325_300.asf...

Video codec 'MS WMV 9 (win32)' is not handled...
