100%
3.0 Task Description

The new multiple screens betatesting is ready to be used, this task will be to better track all that is needed to betatest:

How to use it: Everything should be automated, so just upgrade your system with the command “apug” and restart to a new desktop configuration (from elive menus), which is important too. It should detect that you have multiple screens and ask you to configure them, or use an existing configuration, etc in contrary case you still have the configurator available (only one now, which is an elive tool)

Things to betatest: This is the list:

  1. all the options and behaviours (what if select no, yes, save, not save, remove, etc), this is more or less already betatested by me
  2. try to disconnect the extra screen, reboot computer, your desktop should be equally functional (and I assume not asking/saying anything about)
  3. poweroff again the computer, connect again the extra screen, it should remember that configuration for your second screen and going back to these settings (without asking anything, i assume)
  4. there’s some games that changes your screen resolution (in order to play in fullscreen), if the game exits with an error your desktop is messed up (desktop running in a strange resolution), the normal behaviour is to return to the correct resolution when the game exits correctly, but i dont know if this happens or even if goes to the correct multiscreen mode. Also: a reboot should perfectly return to the normal behaviour
  5. maybe already said before, but switching between “using and not using” the external screen should be not a painful experience (and/or with reboots), it should be “work on the fly”
  6. ecomorph (special effects) should work correctly, except for the “exposé effect” which doesn’t seems to like it so much (confused numbers of desktops, etc, not sure if this one works better after the full implementation)
  7. detail: technically speaking, there’s two launching of the “load screen settings”, one happens before the desktop is loaded and the other when the desktop has started to load... in other words: if there’s a widget/question that asks for anything it should always happen when you already have access to the window controls (including window borders for example)
  8. since i found a strange behavior with the “automated fonts sizing calculation” feature, i include this betatest point: test if the font sizes are not reconfigured “smaller than normal”
  9. we have hotkeys to switch between virtual desktops, do we have a setup for between screens? i just tried to configure a new keyboard hotkey (ctrl + alt + shift + arrows) for switch to another screen 0/1 but doesn’t looks like to work on virtualbox... will need to do test in a real machine (and implement the hotkey in the default configuration)

Notes: if any of these betatests are not working as expected, please include the details of the “steps” about how to reproduce it, and the exact (first words) of the “conflicting” message found

3.x (beta's)1 Task Description

Hola! Tengo tres problemas:


1- Al cerrar sesión el sistema se bloquea.

2- Cuando pongo el equipo en suspensión o le doy a hibernar, me ocurre que al volver al escritorio Internet no funciona y si reinicio todo vuelve a la normalidad, esto ya me pasaba con el sistema estable.

3- Cuando intento actualizar no me deja y todo es darle al botón pero ahí se queda sin poder actualizar.


P. D. - Por lo demás todo perfecto.

Un saludo!

4.02 Task Description

Eltrans was the easiest way to get big parts of the os translated for free. It needs to go live again, so what is the problem that prevents it from working? Is there any way we could write a new version of it so you do not need to waste your time? In that case, what are your requiremetns and what kind of interface should we give it so that it can just be put in place of the older one?

100%
Task Description

Synaptic will not update everything. If i update lists, and select the option to mark all, it cannot update. (it displays the folowwing error:)

E: This installation run will require temporarily removing the essential package libglu1-xorg due to a Conflicts/Pre-Depends loop. This is often bad, but if you really want to do it, activate the APT::Force-LoopBreak option. E: Internal Error, Could not early remove libglu1-xorg


This is a problem of the upgrade of xorg7, well, the more simple option is “upgrade your Elive” from the Elive installer (a new feature similar a upgrade than a installation), it reinstall the system automatized saving your /home partition, users, files, main configurations, etc

100%
Task Description

Using Thunderbird on a Elive 0.5 on my laptop. The default language is French (Fr_fr), and default charset is utf8 for the system.
Some headers of emails don’t print correctly in the headers window of thunderbird, and changing the charset in the menu View→ Character Encoding doesn’t solve the pb... Maybe a pb of compilation of the pgm ?

I also had a pb with accents in xfe, I didn’t manage to solve (Those french and their accents !...)

Thanks for all with this wonderfull distro !

 23 2006-09-102007-04-01Bug Report IPod causes two instances of Thunar to start Closedlontra
100%
Task Description

When I plug in my IPod it causes two instances of Thunar to open. This is a rather trivial, but annoying bug, as I immediately have to close one instance of Thunar and click cancel when it asks me to if I wish to unmount the device.
I think it would be better if Thunar didn’t open when I insert my IPod. Instead GTKPod could handle IPods and other mp3 players by default instead of Thunar as most people won’t use Thunar for IPod management (as it can’t sync, read, etc.) only GTKPod.

 34 2006-10-132006-11-06Bug Report Booting from Firewire DVD-Recorder not possible. ClosedTalyzP
100%
Task Description

The live cd does not boot from a firewire dvd-recorder; at least not the one which came with my Acer Travelmate 3012wtmi.

Both Debian and Ubuntu boot with no problem at all (Debian used to have the same problem before, though) and in Gentoo, it works when the “doscsi” kernel argument is passed. I have not successfully booted Elive with this drive, however.

I don not think this will be a problem very hard to fix; it just needs to be detected ;).

I will try the latest Elive as well (downloading now) and report, but I don not expect it to work, since this bug is not mentioned on the “Fixed Bugs” list.

Task Description

Mouse speed REALLY slow for dell inspiron 510m when x is started..

To fix it, I needed to add:

Option        "SHMConfig"     "on"

to the section in xorg.conf:

Section “InputDevice”

Identifier  "Synaptics"
Driver      "synaptics"

EndSection

(this allows one to set the synaptic properties in real time in X)

Also, these needed to be set:

      Option      "LeftEdge"         "75"
      Option      "RightEdge"        "790"
      Option      "TopEdge"          "58"
      Option      "BottomEdge"       "600"
      Option      "FingerLow"        "14"
      Option      "FingerHigh"       "15"
      Option      "MaxTapTime"       "180"
      Option      "MaxTapMove"       "220"
      Option      "MaxDoubleTapTime" "140"

      Option      "VertScrollDelta"  "10"
      Option      "HorizScrollDelta" "10"
      Option      "MinSpeed"        "0.3"
      Option      "MaxSpeed"        "0.75"
      Option      "AccelFactor"     "0.05"
      Option      "EdgeMotionMinZ"  "30"
      Option      "EdgeMotionMaxZ"  "160"
      Option      "EdgeMotionMinSpeed" "0"
      Option      "EdgeMotionMaxSpeed" "400"
      Option      "EdgeMotionUseAlways" "0"
      Option      "UpDownScrolling" "1"
      Option      "TouchpadOff"    "0"

      Option      "TapButton3"     "3"
      Option      "CircularScrolling" "0"
      Option      "CircScrollDelta" "0.05"
      Option      "CircScrollTrigger" "1"
      Option      "CircularPad"    "0"
      Option      "PalmDetect"     "0"
      Option      "PalmMinWidth"   "10"
      Option      "PalmMinZ"       "200"
      Option      "CoastingSpeed"  "1"

I think that not having the”SHMConfig” is a bug in eLive, and possible having incorrect synaptics settings could be a bug in the synaptic driver.

But it could be possible to probe for specific laptop type, and set up decent parameters based on that.

sorry for an annoying bug! And close it if it’s too hardware specific..
