[Bug 218982] Re: gnome-panel doesn't hide all the way
@NoOp: I sent a patch some time ago to the gnome developers, adjusting the standard settings regarding autohide size, hide/unhide delay to sane values. This patch was included, so for most people the obvious symptoms are fixed. But I would suggest leaving this bug open here as a reminder, until the real problem is fixed. -- gnome-panel doesn't hide all the way https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218982 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 650968] [NEW] gnome-network-manager: Clicking Apply System-Wide requests password seven (7!) times when clicking Cancel
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center Ubuntu 10.10 dev, gnome-control-center 1:2.32.0-0ubuntu1. In gnome-network-manager there is a button to apply the settings system- wide. After clicking on it I get that System policy prevents ... dialog, requesting my password. If I click Cancel it asks again six times, with sometimes even different dialogs! This should be fixed.

[Bug 554487] [NEW] Auto-hidden panels on left/right do not return from hidden
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-panel I have panels on the top and the left. Both are set to auto-hide with a hidden size of 1 pixel. When I move my mouse over the top panel reappears, but the left panel won't. It has worked in 9.10, but does not work in an up-to-date Lucid.

[Bug 157398] Re: GNOME default DPI doesn't match X default DPI
After talking to seb128 on #ubuntu-desktop, it's now clear that the hardcoding of 96 dpi was due to this bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/118745 many people had during the Gutsy dev time frame. In my opinion that workaround should be removed again, because a) hardware detection has improved a lot, b) Gnome has added code to handle these problems in a more sensible way (which doesn't get used because of that workaround), c) the workaround is duplicating Code and makes it harder to debug problems and d) the Gnome fix might work, considering the status of the equivalent Novell bug. -- GNOME default DPI doesn't match X default DPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157398 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 157398] Re: GNOME default DPI doesn't match X default DPI
The whole situation could be compared to the bash-dash transition. People were upset about it and complained, but the transition has been made. Either we do the transition or we wait until 2050 when all displays report nicely to xorg. What has to be done imo is the following: - Remove that debian/ubuntu-gnome-specific workaround - The code from Gnome to handle wrong/missing DPIs will now actually work! - Remove that single integer DPI box on gnome-appearance-properties-Fonts-Details... people abuse that setting If people really have to manually correct their DPI now, the following is needed: - Add 2 DPI boxes to gnome-display-properties, one for the horizontal, one for the vertical DPI. The boxes have to accept floating point values. (Or make a whole new widget ... see mockup) - The DPI values shouldn't be stored in some Gnome-specific file, so that all toolkits can access it - There should be a system-wide setting and an user-specific setting (PolicyKit). - The settings should be display-specific, they could probably be stored as hal/udev rules so that the computer remembers if the user has manually corrected the DPI. ** Attachment added: dpi-widget.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20990277/dpi-widget.png -- GNOME default DPI doesn't match X default DPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157398 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 157398] Re: GNOME default DPI doesn't match X default DPI
I'm currently looking into http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnome-settings- daemon/branches/gnome-2-24/plugins/xsettings/gsd-xsettings- manager.c?view=markup (search for get_dpi_from_gconf_or_x_server (GConfClient *client)) Judging from the code: Basically Gnome uses the dpi value xorg reports when these values are within a reasonable range, but only if the user hasn't overidden these values in his gconf (e. g. via gnome-appearance-properties). If the user hasn't specified a dpi value and xorg's value is 50 or 500, gnome-settings-daemon will choose 96 dpi. My steps: 1. Create a new user 2. Check xdpyinfo | grep resolution - DPI value is RIGHT (and not 50 or 500)! 3. Check gnome-appearance-properties - DPI value is WRONG! 4. Check ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/font_rendering/%gconf.xml - DPI is NOT set! In this scenario gnome-settings-daemon should choose xorg's value but does not. -- GNOME default DPI doesn't match X default DPI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157398 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
