[Bug 621343] Re: sky2: kernel does not power off NIC on shutdown when WOL is disabled

2010-09-12 Thread Spang
I'm not sure I saw it pass yet. But I wanted to note that removing the
network-manager and network-manager-gnome all together and switching
back to good old config files /etc/network/interfaces is a workaround
for this problem as well.

see also: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=511182

I am facing (faced) the same problem and solved it this way.

My case:
Asus P5K Pro (Marvell88E8056® PCIe Gigabit LAN controller featuring AI NET2)
Ubuntu 10.4.1 amd64

I think I had the problem before without it leading to trouble, probably due to 
the fact in before cases that part of the network wasn't used if the 
perpetrator was powered down.
When changing that context the network appeared unusable when this computer was 
powered down, apparently caused by the traffic flood of the zombie NIC.

[Bug 597753] Re: Entire UI(Gnome+apps) behaves like shift button is continually pressed

2010-07-16 Thread Spang
Ok,

The issue still occurs with the GDK fix disabled. I must note however
that the same fix is in place in order for flash to work decently
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-
nonfree/+bug/410407 and most of the time some flash stuff is running in
the back due to an open browser.

Still most cases of occurrence is in eclipse and while using left hand
shortkeys (like ctrl+space).

I'm still uncertain about the undo effect. Afaik, I need to leave
eclipse focus (like going to gedit) and than pressing some combo of
ctrl, shift and capslock seems to undo it eventually (maybe tab is
involved). Not necessarily from the first try.

I'm not sure if it is the only case when it occurs, but most of the times it 
seems to be triggered while using auto completion (ctrl+space) in Eclipse.
Currently I'm using Eclipse 3.5.1 downloaded independently (not from Ubuntu 
repository).
I remember that (at leat in Ubuntu 9.10) there was a gtk/swt bug that forced me 
to use following startup script.

export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=1
~/localapps/eclipse/eclipse

I'll disable that, and see if it makes any difference.

2010-06-23 Thread Spang
Public bug reported:

What happens is when working on my Ubuntu 10.04, at a certain moment it's like 
my keyboard shift key is stuck.
That means, click becomes select. Scroll in firefox becomes back and forward. 
Quite anoying and somewhat hazardous. 

I don't think it's a hardware problem. I have no idea what triggers it.
ctrl+caps lock seems to undo it.

 The audioscrobbler plugin for Quod Libet depends on the Python bindings for 
 LastFM, but these aren't installed by quodlibet-plugins. In order to get this 
 plugin working, one must also install lastfmsubmitd.
 
 Perhaps it'd be a good idea to pull the lastfm bindings into a separate 
 package that both lastfmsubmitd and quodlibet-plugins depend on?

There are actually currently *two* plugins in Quod Libet
for submitting to Last.fm / using the audioscrobbler
protocol. Only one of them requires the lastfmsubmitd
daemon. I believe upstream is at least considering
deprecating the one that uses the daemon.

Same here. Fix working. About the same config (64 bit lucid, and 8500

So I guess setting System  Preferences  Appearance to none and adding
compiz --use-root-window --replace to System  Preferences  Startup

[Bug 574540] [NEW] Language selection fails to set all locale environment variables correctly.

2010-05-03 Thread Spang
Public bug reported:

- Migration from 9.10 to 10.04.
- Default language set to dutch nl-be. (family computer)
- My desktop set to us english
- resulting in mixed dutch english gnome ui

When I looked around a bit locales command told me that env var LANG
was set to us english, but LANGUAGE var was set to nl be. So apparently
selecting language (e.g. at login) sets the one but not the other

I was finally able to fix it by adding
export LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8
to .profile in my home dir.

Took quite a while to find this.

Yes, this used to work with the bum solution. Afaik it worked because
qemu fired up kvm on start, I don't think actual parallel use of qemu

inconvenient indeed.

2010-04-21 Thread Spang
Hmm, some looking around has made me think this is an error in the qemu-kvm 
packaging.
Removing qemu-kvm should remove the qemu-kvm upstart job (which actually loads 
the module).
Qemu can run without kvm, but then it isn't using hardware virtualization. This 
could be a solution for people only using qemu sporadically.

People who want to keep the option of hardware qemu could modify 
/etc/init/qemu-kvm.conf
changing
start on runlevel [2345]
to
#start on runlevel [2345]
effectively disabling this line.
Probably running 
sudo initctl reload
afterwards to reload the settings.

This should make the kvm module loading manual, with modprobe or with
sudo stop qemu-kvm
and
sudo start qemu-kvm

Comment cited from over there:
Been on Lucid since beta 1. Upgraded to the latest package versions just 
yesterday. For the first time since the migration to KDE4 apps I kept the 
Kaffeine upgrade (0.8.7 to 1.0). Since this is marked duplicate of bug 531306 I 
should note here that when using Kaffeine screen saver inhibition, or at least 
stand-by inhibition, is not working when watching tv from dvb.

btw, this problem occurred in the KDE3 version package as well, was then
caused by a missing build dependency (I think) and was solved with a ppa
package. (bug 365770)

2010-04-21 Thread Spang
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kaffeine

When playing back video in PAL format, either live or recorded from DVB,
the video speed is a bit too fast. Something in the order of 25fps
played back at 30fps. Audio seems to be fine. Audio and video seem not
to get out of sync because about every 30 seconds video jitters and ends

[Bug 532633] Re: [Master] Window Control buttons: position/order/alignment

2010-03-27 Thread Spang
@Pako

Watched the screencasts so I could make somewhat of fair judgment. As
far as I can tell window management buttons are still on the right :P.
I'm kidding, though again I think even here I can generalize. I'd say
Gnome 3.0 shell allows you to keep your old basic habbits, window
management on the right, taskbar, some sort of menu, but allows you to
extend them. I even deem it possible my mother wouldn't be confronted
with any of the new features. Fact of the matter is, I was actually
planning to upgrade that PC to Lucid and then stick with the LTS while
it was supported. ;)

Look, I'm not saying that an OS should be designed with 62 year old
ladies in mind. But changes that impact very basic computer interaction
patterns for some reason feel like they outweigh others by far. Things
change in Gnome 3.0, but as far as I can tell they seem to be respecting
the basics. And, changes that are there seem to have reason.

Don't change things for the sake of change, or to differentiate. Make changes 
because they make improvements.
(as I said before, no one would just changes the order of throttle and brake in 
a car, without a very good reason)

Btw,I should clarify. I don't think it's an outrage that Canonical threw
the buttons over to the left in this beta. On the contrary, I think it
was a great experiment. So an alpha/beta is the place to do it.

It has spawned a lively debate and in this debate I'm simply expressing
my opinion. I disagree with the idea as it stands and I believe it isn't
wise to include it in to a final LTS Ubuntu.

Let me mark the marketing in that statement:
-differentiate is important
-Better cars (Sprot-Cars, expensive Cars) moved the gearshifts to the steering 
wheel
-Apple slogan is: Think different ... and

First and last are pretty much the same. A comment on that better cars
though. Euhm, a lot of these cars have the gear paddles to give 55 year
old midlife crisising men that can afford them, an F1 feeling. Afaik,
rally cars have the gear in the middle. F1 cars have it on the wheel
because there's no other place to put it. That said, I chose brake and
throttle with that in mind and because they are more essential.

Concerning Ubuntu's marketing, last time I checked, it was something
like, linux for human beings (that would include 62 year olds) and not
Think different... (which till tis day is actually implied when using
linux, so no need to shout about it :P) .

So much for marketing, what about good science. Is it true improvement?
My cursor doesn't spend most of its time in the top left, it's pretty

@Pako

If what I said leads you to that conclusion, you're cutting a bit to
much corners...

@Bernhard  scholli

The theme dependent position is indeed somewhat of a compromise. I don't
think it changes anything at the core of the debate though.

Anyhow, I think I've done enough community participation (or whining) on
this certain subject on launchpad. I've expressed hopes and thoughts. In
the end the call is made by Mark and the design team.

2010-03-26 Thread Spang
As the debate is still alive and kicking, let met drop in example of an
argument that has surely passed the board. (What about novice users, and
their willingness to migrate)

About a month ago I migrated my 62 year old mothers PC (pretty much used
for PC-banking only), from XP tot Karmic. Something I would never have
considered before Ubuntu times.

Anyhow a long story short, the transition form XP to Karmic went quite
smoothly, no complaints so far. I am afraid however, if I'd migrate that
home PC from Karmic to Lucid, without putting back these buttons where
they were, the first question would be to go back to Windows.

I think thats a fear easily generalized. Moving those buttons will
reduce the likelihood that people actually migrate from the most used
desktop OS so far. I'm not even sure I would have gone Ubuntu all the
way a few years ago, with those buttons over there. I may not be a
kernel hacker, but as a computer science engineering graduate I wouldn't
qualify myself a novice ;)

[Bug 382626] Re: Nautilus location bar toggle icon implies unrelated function

2010-03-23 Thread Spang
@David:

Yes, I found the ctrl+L keys. Only, it's not a toggle. But more
importantly, it's a right hand key combo. In my opinion right hand key
combo's slow down computer interaction, as you have to move your hand
from mouse to keyboard. And even if it was a left hand one. Nautilus
interaction is mostly mouse based (as opposed to for example a text
editor), so having to use key combo's is in conflict with that.

In user testing, we observed people clicking on this toggle
button in an attempt to create new documents simply because the icon
had a document in it.

My apologies for being frank. But, an OS should be intuitive, yes, but not 
necessarily idiot proof. The effect that toggle button has, isn't very 
dramatic, you click it, some UI element changes, you click it again and it 
changes back. If you click it once to make a new doc, seems possible. But you 
should be capable of noticing that is has some other functionality. In fact, 
most UI elements have tooltips these days, there's no crime in looking at them 
once in while.
In the long end, trying to find a better icon might be a good thing. But 
killing it because someone might mistakenly toggle it, what's that about?

Then again, as Vish mentions, it might have some other reason. But if
you ask me, there should at least be an option to the button. As long
time nautilus users have grown accustomed to it. While it could make
sense to recover some screen space on a netbook, when you're on a 26
display, having the button there makes more sense.

2010-03-22 Thread Spang
Look I'm not opposed to progress, if I was, why on earth would I mind
installing a beta OS. But the concept behind progress is that there is
actual improvement. Changing things for no good reason is simply
unproductive.

Why could you oppose change in this case. Because it forces us to change
habits, more specifically in this case automatisms. Automatisms allow us
to live life without having to think about trivial tasks. They aren't
there when you're born, but are built with experience, which takes time.
By forcing people to change automatism (for no good reason) your
actually forcing people to waste thinking time on trivial actions.
It's like changing the order of the throttle and the break in a car,
just because the designer liked it better that way?

If the potential fancy new toy in the right corner was actually there,
people wouldn't be feeling that the changing effort is for nothing.

And by the way, for those who state it's all about options. Yes, options
are great, but they are no excuse for poor decisions. By which I'm not
stating this one is a poor decision. I do strongly disagree with it
though and form me it's back to menu:min,max,close for now.

I suffered from this bug.

It would seem that it is some kind of migration error. Following faulty
dependencies all the way lead to libparted1.8-12 that needed to be
libparted0. Once that was switched most things got fixed. It think it is
an important remark though, since it forced the removal of gvfs and all
dependent packages all the way up to ubuntu-desktop.

To be honest a bit of an unpleasant struggle, but glad it got fixed, by

2009-10-04 Thread Spang
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mozgest

When upgrading all of the packages posted in the Karmic repo up to now, since 
Friday, my Firefox (3.5) stopped working properly. It refuses to open new 
browsing windows. And some of the graphical features of some of the extensions 
don't work anymore as well. The extensions them self are still working when 
accessed via the add-ons window, except for Mouse Gestures Redox. (no gestures 
working, preferences window blank)
When that extensions is disabled, everything is back to normal. Currently I'm 
using the mouse gestures package from the repo. After finishing this report, 
I'll try removing it and installing via the standard Firefox method.

[Bug 404970] Re: DVB-T play fail with error

2009-10-04 Thread Spang
I'm happy to participate in the beta improvement. In my opinion, the way
you find the most bugs is by using the beta as primary system. I don't
mind the beta hick-ups and I don't mind reporting them. But when I want
to sit back and watch some tv, or record a show, I would like it to
somewhat work. Having to reboot every time I change the channel is a bit
much for me, even with the very quick boot times of Karmic ;) .

I don't want to disrespect all the hard work that is put in to the
rewrite of Kaffeine and the packaging effort, but maybe the time for the
new Kaffeine in the Ubuntu repository hasn't just come yet.

For now, for me I solved the problem by downgrading to the jaunty
version of Kaffeine, until the new version is fixed. To do this I:

 * Uninstalled Kaffeine
 * I fetched the debian-package from 
http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/kde/kaffeine
 * Installed it (simple double click does the trick these days)
 * Locked the version with synaptic, so the update manager ignores it

Maybe this is helpful for others in the same situation.

[Bug 409640] Re: Video is tinted blue after update

2009-10-01 Thread Spang
I'm experiencing the same problem.
To specify further, video backed by xine (like kaffeine DVB) don't experience 
the problem immediately. When gstreamer backed video (Totem) is started, all of 
it flips (both xine and gestreamer backed playback). Odd thing is, simply 
starting the nvidia-settings app solves the problem, until a new gstreamer 
backed video is started.

Indeed, when using the hue parameter for XVideo in de nvidia-settings,
the effect can be replicated by putting it to + or - 1000. When the
nvidia-settings app is allready running, changing the hue  and putting
it backt to 0 brings everything back to normal.

I'm  running a Karmic AMD64 as well.

[Bug 213494] Re: Glipper dies when desktop starting

2009-05-28 Thread Spang
Jaunty AMD64
For me the sleep thing doesn't seem to fix it.
On the contrary, it stalls the rest of my gnome from loading.

[Bug 311373] Re: [i945] xserver always crashes after being loged in for a few hours

2009-02-19 Thread Michael Spang
This also happens with current jaunty. Sometimes the crash just logs me
out, other times it breaks the display completely until reboot.

[Bug 247677] Re: Error starting domain: virDomainCreate() failed Failed to add tap interface 'vnet%d' to bridge 'br0' : Permission denied

2008-11-18 Thread Spang
That's because virsh uses the root libvirtd and virt manager uses the userspace 
one.
The same result is achieved by running virt-manager with sudo.

Still, thanks a lot for the information because I was experiencing the
same problem, but then on a personal Ubuntu server I access remotely.
X-forwarding and sudo aren't the best of friends and so virsh is a very
welcome alternative to virt-manager.

I do believe that this means that the userspace virt-manager is isn't able to 
bridge.
So I guessing that bug 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virt-manager/+bug/192605 is still or 
again an issue.

If you use this
  virt-manager -c qemu:///system
You can even skip the sudo's.

Make sure you are part of the libvirtd group.

[Bug 285234] Re: Corrupted files after tranfer to Nautilus automounted scp directory.

2008-10-30 Thread Spang
So steps I take:
1. Log on to the vpn of my University (But this should not be the problem, the 
WinSCP travels over the same vpnc connection through NAT)
2. I connect with the server through Nautilus: sftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED] (so 
when I said SCP I might have been mistaken)
3. I do a copy-paste operation from a local folder to a folder on the server, 
with that UTF-8 xml
4. If I fetch the file back with either Nautilus or WinSCP, the file is 
corrupted.

3b. I put the file there with WinSCP.
4b. If I fetch the file back with either Nautilus or WinSCP, the file is OK.

So yes, at least on my system it is reproducible.

Side notes:
I'm not sure, but I think it is a Windows OS running on the server, because the 
folders I write to are published with IIS. If that is necessary I can try to 
find out more.

When I try to use standard scp, to put the file in place I get:
  00029: Remote execution access has been disabled by the system administrator.

[Bug 285234] [NEW] Corrupted files after tranfer to Nautilus automounted scp directory.

2008-10-17 Thread Spang
Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 8.04.1 AMD64

Nautilus 1:2.22.5.1-0ubuntu1

openssh-client 1:4.7p1-8ubuntu1.2

After transferring UTF-8 files to a remote scp server, they become
scrambled up and unaccessible by simple textreaders like gedit. The
transfer was done by copy-pasting local files in a scp-directory
accessed through Nautilus.

Using WinSCP in a VM, does not have the same problem. Transfering files
from the server (that were put there with WinSCP) does not have the same
problem.
