Elive

Thenuxnewbie (princeamd’s friend?) reported a crash on e17 “trying to move gadgets from shelf” he said, attached crasdump file

<Thenuxnewbie> im on wifi and i just noticed something, it would allow me to remove the gadget as long as the wifi signal strength isn’t displayed in what i presume is the system tray
<Thenuxnewbie> but as long as it’s showing signal strength bar, trying to remove the gadged crashes e17

So try to remove the wifi widget with the systray active to reproduce the bug

<Elive_user_en_18> when selecting english Canada changes to French Canada

This report seems to reffer to wizard languages selector I assume

English is english, so french canada is wrong (note that canada has french and english, betatest too if the keyboard is correctly set too)

In my thinkpad laptop, if i run wizard (new .e) i got the audio configurator that asks me twice, see if this happens after to upgrade to 3.0-rc

If you open terminal from thunar, which is assigned to urxvt, the colors theme is not considered, it doesn’t read our .Xdefaults file ?

I’ve noticed something with the tabs and windows in chromium that u might find interesting :)

Chromium ‘bugs’ with handling from one instance tab → window → another instance tab http://mwow.dk/data/action/vid/this-1-1.ogv

This bug happens since some update of chromium in debian wheezy, 35.0.1916.153-1~deb7u1, it works with the previous version 34.0.1847.116-1~deb7u1

You said recently that you have found the cause of the bug where teh windwos are positioned in the first screen (xinerama) when looking at something else about borders?, but i still having the bug around, did you commited the fix ?

I don’t see the mixer module in e17-stable

If you press the power button (which shows a menu option in E to close computer) and extremely-fastly you press any keyboard key, you got a segfault

This can help making it to appear: cd /tmp ; mprime-cpu -t
Also if you add a “drop caches” on that command should help too, giving you more human-time over computer-time

<PrinceAMD> what i think is happening here is
<PrinceAMD> an object is deleted, then a key pressed on the object causes seff
<PrinceAMD> so i think some check is needed in _e_manager_cb_key_down
<PrinceAMD> i'm guessing this is a keybinding bug, so lets say the binding trigger a call of a deleted pointer,

After to have opened the menu it frozen and then segfaulted, computer is a nettop, seems like nettops are much more prone to segfault since they are slower :)

If you run something like “berusky” (small game, which don’t works in fact), it fucks your X resolution without possibility to recover it (BIG BAD BUG)

In short it seems like to: change your E resolution, don’t restore the original one, but E saves and remebers it

We should need a way to detect that the resolution was changed by FOO, when FOO finishes and some seconds passed change the resolution to the original one if we are not on it (not sure if this is possible)

Also, is needed to save the resolution on E confs only when we select to save it, seems like there’s a trigger that saves it automatically, this is very bad :P

Notes: betatest in e19 to see if the bug is solved (and so just cherry-pick the fixes)

Beta 2.6.14

If the prior version installed on the hard drive uses the LABEL= partition naming convention in /etc/fstab, both the / and /home partitions should be changed to UUID= or if one wants to risk it /dev/sdc or sda or whatever # blkid from the live boot calls it.

Since i am not too sure about the handling of multiple users on /home I am now going to clone a home partition to test the install.

PLEASE be describable, clear, and direct. Think that we need to understand, found, and solve the bug.

Remember to set the Due in Version box into the next stable version number.

Thank you

elive 2.9.2 USB I have tried this in a Pentium system and cannot fully boot an hangs with message: module dm_raid45 not found in modules.dep

I have also tried booting an Acer 5532. Same problem

a back button is needed in during the installation progress

Hi,

I have yesterday finished installation of last beta version. Unfortunately I wasn’t front of my laptop when the installation process went to an end. I think that there’s probably on last step something like how to boot the system isn’t it? Now the system doesn’t boot and I can’t access bios... Have you some idea what to now? I’ m using Lenovo ThinkPad E530c.
Thanks.

BR,

Vlad.

When creating a DB in libreOffice base you get loads of errors.

It can be helped by installing

sudo apt-get install libreoffice-sdbc-hsqldb

this maybe included in the next beta

The text in menu of XFE is not right encoded (with the french menu). For exemple “Propriété” is “Propri&#128;©t&#128;©”.

If I created a file or rename it i have the same problem.

The site not works very good since is used http://bugs.thanatermesis.org instead of the real site... for example not is posible to “copy the link of the site” because it stills on http://bugs.thanatermesis.org all the time
Also when you make a login, sometimes give you a strange blank page

Any recomendation for the redirection of the site ?

Ok, i have look thunar and its a perfect candidate, very good options, not big, nice features, and a look vision to the future, you can install it actually on your Elive via apt-get...

Use from now this application normally, and look options and stuff, if you look any thing to looks bad, write here in a comment... write also a list of the special options to you think to needs to are configured for Elive (no mime-types for launch the correct applications), and you put here in a comment, and then i start to implement it for the first 0.6-beta’s release :)

1. There are several windows in the installation of Elive GEM that has a “generic” name on the top. And would be really better if we could write a correct description. Examples:

• Many windows has “SELECTS ITEMS FROM THE LIST”. That’s a generic name and it doesn’t reveal the content of the window when you press alt+tab. For example in: “Select partitioning method”, “Choose partition”, “Choose filesystem”.

This is particulary annoying when you are doing other things while installing. For example I had many windows opened and I didn’t noticed that “SELECTS ITEMS FROM THE LIST” was the “Select partitioning mehotd”.

Best regards,

This could be not considered even a “feature request” because is my own desire.

During the installation of Elive, sometimes you have to wait several minutes between installation steps. During this minutes I have tempted to do some other things (in fact I was using the IRC).

But I had a problem with my installation because an installation window suddenly raised to focus and I pressed “space” (because I’m writting on the IRC) and, obviously the installation window assumed that I’ve pressed some button on its screen.

The fact is that maybe installation windows doesn’t have to raise to focus or maybe, no keyboard shortcuts would be available on those screens.

Regards!

- Félix

There is any way to go back one or, maybe, several steps on the installation?... because I made a mistake and I couldn’t go back.

Thanks!

if you put a cd/dvd in system at boot, it does not mount until you open thunar and click on it.

Even after installing thunar thumbnailer thunar is unable to show raw camera images

Hotkeys doesn’t correctly disable and enable the wifi adaptor.

When using elive on an eeepc exalt doesn’t work correctly:

• It doesn’t show the quality of signal giving always minimum signal

• It doesn’t show open or encrypted access point showing and treating all of them as encrypted
