[15:44] Yes, hi. :) [15:46] hey [15:46] i am new to this, but would like to help and a certain bug is driving me and a lot of other people mad ;-) [15:46] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tsclient/+bug/270374 [15:46] Ubuntu bug 270374 in tsclient "[intrepid] enter a computer name then hit enter, list stays on screen and steals input" [Undecided,Confirmed] [15:46] oooo thats nice [15:47] anyway there has been a simple source patch posted which has been suggested upstream, but it doesn't look like it gets released often, so my question is: [15:47] can i submit a debdiff for that patch for inclusion in jaunty until it is fixed upstream? === jjesse_ is now known as jjesse [16:34] Ubuntu 8.10, I have the Disk Mounter applet in my top panel. I have an Audio disk mounted. If I click on it and select Play CD the "Disk Mounter" applet quits and I can choose to reload it. Anybody can try this on their system? [16:35] I believe the applets are just a bunch of *.so files, so the bug may be with the applet itself and not "gnome-panel" as a whole. [16:38] Is anyone able to run "System -> Administration -> System Testing" under Jaunty? [16:39] MrKanister, what does it do? Is that a new thing? [16:39] I suspect it can not be run because of python 2.6...is gives a deprecation warning about the md5 module [16:41] MrKanister, I never test the development releases, but I did hear they were going to migrate to python 2.6, so how is it going? Still a lot of broken packages? [16:42] vocx: I am not that much into the migration of python, but it seems like many packages were already succesfully migrated [16:42] vocx: I found the bug report about the "System Testing " bug... bug #335773 [16:42] Launchpad bug 335773 in checkbox "[Jaunty 9.04 alpha5] "System Testing" won't start (checkbox-gtk)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/335773 [16:45] MrKanister, about the last comment in that bug, it appears that /usr/bin/checkbox-gtk is not a python script, so it cannot be run with python directly. It's probably a shell script that calls python though. [16:45] vocx: yep, it's a shell script, but running "python2.5 /usr/share/checkbox/run /usr/share/checkbox/configs/checkbox-gtk.ini [16:45] " also gives an error [16:48] By the way, a few weeks ago I was trying to figure out why nautilus took so much time to load directories with several files, it is due to Assistive Technologies "at-spi". If anyone is interested, you can check bug #159042 [16:48] Launchpad bug 159042 in nautilus "Nautilus is very slow in list mode with assistive technologies enabled" [Low,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/159042 [16:51] Can anyone confirm that bug for Jaunty? Perhaps the simple solution would be to turn Assitive Tecnhologies by default while the real problem remains to be worked out by the gnome people. [17:00] vocx: I tested it on Jaunty (the nautilus thing) and I can confirm it. I also left a comment [17:01] MrKanister, did you read my post? Activate Assitive Technologies, check top for "at-spi-registryd" and all of that? [17:03] I haven't obtained a backtrace or similar...I just tried opening /usr/lib/ once with AT activated and once without it.
