[Bug 617211] [NEW] Fade Windows can get stuck if rapidly toggled
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: compiz-fusion-plugins-main Tested on: Fresh install of 10.04 Note that I'm assuming that 'fade windows' comes from the main plugins package - it did not seem to be in either? Maybe its part of the core? The Fade Windows plugin is used by several other plugins (such as the ADD helper). If one of those plugins causes it to rapidly fade and unfade, it can get stuck faded. This only happens when in constant time' mode - constant speed never sticks. To cause this problem: * Enable Fade Windows * Switch Fade Windows to Constant Time instead of Constant Speed. * Cause windows to rapidly fade and unfade (the goal is to have a fade overlap an unfade on the same window). My favorite way to reproduce this is to turn on another plugin like ADD helper (Which makes unfocused windows fade) and then turn on Ubuntu's Select Windows When the mouse moves over them option (in system-preferences-windows). Then just put two windows on your desktop and shake the mouse rapidly between them to cause them to flicker. Note that you HAVE to have 'constant time' not 'constant speed' selected. There's probably an easier way to reproduce this, by turning the fade time very high so you have plenty of time to cause multiple fades to begin on the same window or something. Note that even without trying to cause this to happen, after about a day of using the machine, all windows will inevitably have had the fade effect stick just due to alt/tab or popup windows or such... so the only workaround is to make sure its set to constant speed. ** Affects: compiz-fusion-plugins-main (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Binary package hint: compiz-fusion-plugins-main + + Tested on: Fresh install of 10.04 + Note that I'm assuming that 'fade windows' comes from the main plugins package - it did not seem to be in either?

[Bug 576496] Re: Lost ata interrupt, usb hid (mouse keyboard) freezes
This problem affects me too. However, its different, it only affects USB devices on the same IRQ as the SATA_NV driver: 23: 786792 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi ohci_hcd:usb2, sata_nv In my case, that OHCI_HCD (usb hub) is actually an external hub built into my monitor. Once I moved my mouse and keyboard away from that hub, they were no longer affected by this issue. (However, I still get the issue, and the computer freezes up while its doing the soft reset). It seems pretty random, and I scanned for bad blocks on the HDD (badblocks) and found none. The other thing different is that for me it didn't completely freeze the mouse, but it did lower the sample rate to like 2hz, so the mouse moved very slowly (and typing was very delayed). -- Lost ata interrupt, usb hid (mouse keyboard) freezes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/576496 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 373367] Re: Pointer goes offscreen on non-rectangular dual-head
I have written a qt tray-icon based background app that basically keeps the mouse in the screen by polling for when its gone out of the screen, but this is a very suboptimal solution since it has to poll many times a second and eat cpu. It sometimes reaches 1% cpu even! And X is still getting the events, so it kind of bounces at the edges, not a great solution (but better than nothing). A proper solution would be to somehow get the driver or the X system involved, because we'd want to intercept these pointer events before they reach X or at least before it sends them on to client applications. If someone has information on where to start looking if I wanted to mess around with this at a higher level (X or driver or something) please let me know - I have the means, but I'm kind of lost in the architecture here.

[Bug 209338] Re: [Hardy] Move To Trash broken with new gnome-vfs
Possibly. I was under the impression that each individual app that used to move things to trash needs to have gnome-vfs support to work properly now (ie, there is no universal fix). I could be wrong. If it's indeed the case that individual apps needs upgrades, it means bug #208277 would be because of any random app that hasn't got the vfs support yet. However, the 'symptoms' of this bug are different from whats described there... to be more specific the system-wide trashcan shows up as empty, and opening up the trash can using the trash applet (or vfs link) shows nothing there. (Becuase the files were moved to a different folder which the trash can applet is not watching). Basically, if the user is not knowlegable enough to know that its moving the files to ~/.trash, it will appear to them as if the files are being erased, but they will gain no disk space.

[Bug 64814] Re: apt wants to auto-remove all my system!!!
iKs wrote: kubuntu-desktop is a meta-package anyway so removing it wont affect your system at all. But its still a problem that apt-get doesnt know how to handle dependencies correctly. As a temporary solution, I would tell you to use aptitude, which works perfectly on my system (ubuntu-desktop) and which is supposed to be the new generation apt tool :) That's what I thought too - and it was true the first few times. Like, it'd say its removing kubuntu desktop but it'd be all fine. So then I removed kaffiene and keb too, and each time it listed more and more packages as being removed. I guess once kubuntu-desktop has been removed, it believes that all the packages inside kubuntu-desktop are no longer necessary. So each time if I remove 2 or 3 things like kaffiene and keb it will uninstall the entirety of KDE. This is on the latest feisty btw. And I tested it via the 'add or remove programs' graphical UI and it had the same result. In other words I can screw up this system (recoverably, if you're not a newbie user, but I dont like to make that assumption) just by removing things like keb and amarok via the 'add or remove programs' gui. -- apt wants to auto-remove all my system!!! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64814 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 64814] Re: apt wants to auto-remove all my system!!!
This has happened numerous times on this system. Needless to say I've had to reinstall. It screwed up the system a couple times already.I do something like 'hmm, I don't have a sound card so I don't need amarok' and so I apt-get remove amarok and it erases kubuntu desktop, everything. It seems to be triggered anytime I remove anything that comes with the kubuntu-desktop package. Maybe the system doesn't realise that kubuntu desktop is needed by other packages or something (I dont know how the packages work, tbh). In one case it even removed my network connectivity stuff and I couldn't even apt-get to fix it because apt-get update failed (no connectivity). Somehow, it thinks that nothing is referencing kubuntu desktop if you remove any component of it. -- apt wants to auto-remove all my system!!! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/64814 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 103018] ksysguard applet displays become unusable if they ever become blank
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: kdebase Version: Latest Feisty Beta, updated just before making sure its reproducable to post this bug. Environment: kubuntu-desktop under VMWare (So, no crazy compiz or compositor or anything like that) 1. Add the System Guard applet to the KDE panel 2. Right click on the system guard settings (not the individual display settings, but the settings for the applet itself) and add additional displays -- The displays appear blank. This is fine. The problem is, there is nowhere obvious to click to fill them back up with information. In fact, there doesn't appear to be any way at all to fill them with data. Any clicks you make on the blank panels appear to go through them to the underlying KDE bar instead of allowing you to configure that display. This problem is made worse if a user accidentally alters the original 2 panels (CPU and Mem or whatever) or reduces the number of panels, causing them to blank out because it can never be restored. Clicking on the border / all over the empty panel does nothing. It remembers this blankness everytime you remove the applet and add it again, so it appears it is forever unusable from that moment on. ** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- ksysguard applet displays become unusable if they ever become blank https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/103018 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for kdebase in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
