[Bug 338982] Re: evolution crashed with SIGSEGV during MAPI authentication

2009-04-14 Thread Ramesh Dharan
I am as annoyed about this as anybody else; this is the *single* feature
that I cared about in Jaunty and in fact I upgraded my main  desktop
from Intrepid to Jaunty as soon as Evolution 2.26 was "released" just
for this functionality.

That having been said, it seems more appropriate to direct our
frustration at upstream. Ubuntu hasn't invested in evolution or
evolution-mapi at all and they're just taking what GNOME claims to be
giving them; the evolution team meanwhile should be raked over the coals
for claiming this thing works when it's little more than a cruelly
painful joke right now.

That having been said, if you guys are going to drop it from Jaunty, you
should do so explicitly rather than letting users find out for
themselves that it doesn't actually work. Right now there's all kinds of
nice fluffy press coverage about how evolution-mapi lets Linux users
talk to Exchange; this cookie cuttery copy is all clearly written by
people who don't even use Exchange (and probably don't even use Linux),
and who clearly have not tried out the feature before touting its
availability.

Agreed with Mahdi, icedtea simply doesn't cut it for Java, and
nspluginwrapper is unfortunately still quite broken in Hardy. It stops
working after about 10 minutes, or anytime you have multiple tabs open
using Flash simultaneously.

Just take a look at how many views and questions there are on the forums
from people trying to do the chroot thing (which sucks too - I lived
that way for about a year and it was awful).

Please don't tell us that the plugin simply "works well", when what you
really mean is that it works well for you in a five minute sniff test.

Ahah!

That explains a lot.

Thanks, Chris. Now if only I could get Trevino's package to work in
Gutsy.

2007-10-25 Thread Ramesh Dharan
Does the Xgl X server *still* not support XKB? That was a blocker for me
in the past (plus a source of frustration - why the heck would you want
XKB in your regular X server but not Xgl?!).

I believe nvidia-glx-new *is* required for some cards, including (I
believe) my NVS 285 Quadro. I tried nvidia-glx instead but the stupid
lrm-video script wouldn't let the module actually load and refused to
tell me what was going on; I didn't bother to track it down. I'll give
it a shot again.

[Bug 151168] Re: Memory leak in nvidia-glx-new's GL_EXT_texture_from_pixmap

2007-10-25 Thread Ramesh Dharan
Matt, I fail to see how this is strictly NVIDIA's fault. Many of the
people who have commented on this bug (including myself) had working
Compiz setups in Feisty, and they have now regressed to an unusable
state in Gutsy.

I was running the exact same NVIDIA driver (100.14.19) in Feisty as I am
in Gutsy. Compiz worked in Feisty, Compiz blows in Gutsy. To me, that's
a regression on the Ubuntu/Compiz side.

The black window bug had a workaround: compiz --use-copy. Though people
didn't seem to be aware of it.

[Bug 151168] Re: memory leak with ring

2007-10-18 Thread Ramesh Dharan
I should also add that the amount of memory leaked appears to be
(somewhat unsurprisingly) proportional to the size of the window.

That is to say, if I open and close a new firefox window, I see compiz
resident memory jump by ~10MB. With a smaller terminal window, it's ~3MB
as noted before.

[Bug 151168] Re: memory leak with ring

2007-10-18 Thread Ramesh Dharan
Is it possible to change the title of this bug? Something like "compiz
leaks memory with NVIDIA proprietary driver" (or similar)?

I just filed a new bug about compiz leaking memory and I ignored this
one because the title said it only affected the Ring plugin which I
never use.

On my machine, it's *really* bad. I see resident memory usage increase
by ~3MB each time I open a window.

*Sigh*. So I can't run Compiz on my work machine, because it leaks
memory like crazy with NVIDIA cards. And I can't run it at home, because
it locks up my laptop with an ATI Mobility 9600. Are Intel cards the
only ones that can actually run this damn thing? What gives?

[Bug 154210] Massive memory leak in compiz

2007-10-18 Thread Ramesh Dharan
Public bug reported:

I'm running the Gutsy release bits, with the NVIDIA 100.14.19
closed/proprietary driver and compiz enabled with full desktop effects.

Compiz is leaking 3MB of memory every time I open and close a window.
That is to say, I can see resident memory usage in 'top' (not just
virtual address space) increasing steadily, and every time I open and
close a terminal window I see it jump by 3MB.

I just had to power-cycle my system because compiz.real was using 1.7GB
of resident memory, and it locked up the machine when I tried killing
it.

** Affects: compiz (Ubuntu)
 Importance: Undecided
 Status: New

[Bug 108527] Re: X freezes when compiz is enabled on ATI cards

2007-10-15 Thread Ramesh Dharan
I very much doubt the AGP aperture has anything to do with it. FWIW, my
AGP aperture has been at 256MB the whole time.

The crashes seem to be entirely unpredictable in nature. Several of the
times it has happened, I have only had one window open, with no wobbling
or cube transitions or anything else crazy going on - e.g. I was just
clicking on an OK button, and it would freeze

[Bug 108527] Re: X freezes when compiz is enabled on ATI cards

2007-10-15 Thread Ramesh Dharan
This happens for me all the time with the Gutsy RC: screen freezes up
*except* the mouse cursor, and the machine is still alive but I have to
power-cycle it.

I have the same hardware as MikeMLP: T42, Mobility 9600 (M10). I'm
running the stock Gutsy configuration, and free/oss ati/radeon driver,
with all desktop effects enabled.

I experience the hang quite regularly with both the stock 2.6.22-14
kernel as well as my hand-built 2.6.23.1. I'm happy to run any tests or
provide logs or whatever else is needed if it will help resolve this
problem.
