Python-gobject 3.0.3-2 here and I’m able to reproduce this. I haven’t got an exact recipe for it, but enough wiggling around in software sources (with the mirror and such) seems to bring it on. I *think* it happens only when I finally close the window and not before. I’ll keep looking for the exact steps, but I’m pretty confident this is still unfixed, as apport always points me to this report.

Thanks for the Google Music Manager application-specific password solution

@Roger: Thanks for the solution. On Ubuntu Precise, GMM 1.0.23.1334-r0 seems to use /usr/local/share/applications instead of /usr/share/applications for the desktop file (there’s also a copy in /opt/google/musicmanager/, but it’s apparently just used for installing the effective file into /usr/local/).

@Nuno: I’m not sure I see the point of encrypting the application-specific password, and then be prompted to enter the key for decrypting the password. Isn’t it more straightforward to just specify the application-specific password when GMM prompts you to? Actually, with the caveat that specifying the password on the commandline means exposing it to trusted users, isn’t having GMM prompt for it a *better* solution securitywise? I guess you do get the benefit of getting to specify your own password which can be as easily memorizable as you dare use though (the application-specific passwords are difficult). Instead of OpenSSL I’d probably use GNOME Keyring, as it gets unlocked during login without an extra prompt for another password. Then pick the key for GMM using gkeyring.

I’ve found an MP3 file that does the same

I’ve found an MP3 file that also exhibits this. Can’t link it for © reasons, but I’ve got it here for testing.

Inserting newlines

6. tammikuuta 2012 klo 19.46
Sijainti: Keskustelupalstat: WordPress Support Forums
Avainsanat: WordPress

There was a topic about replacing br tags with newlines on Urban Giraffe, but it seems to have led nowhere, so I’m posting this here just so that I can find it when I again need it, and maybe of help to others too.

I modified the search_and_replace function on line 37 of models/search.php so that $this->replace is assigned a replaced string itself:

$this->replace = str_replace("\\n", '
', $replace);

This means I want to replace any occurences of ”\n”’s in my replacement string with actual newlines just prior to applying the replacement.

It’s an ad hoc solution which I’m reverting once I’m done with newlines. I’ve not explored any possible side effects this solution may have, so use with caution.

Edit: Forum ate my br.

Voisin periaatteessa käyttää tuon kilkkeen tarjoamaa tietoa blogatessani

Sijainti: Blogit: Tuhat sanaa
Avainsanat: aktivismi, Internet, SOPA

Tuon lisäksi, mitä Riku sanoi, ainakin itse ajattelin, että voisin periaatteessa käyttää tuon kilkkeen tarjoamaa tietoa blogatessani siten, että jos linkittäisin liputettuihin sivustoihin, mainitsisin SOPAn siinä yhteydessä. Voisin siis levittää tietoa edelleen. Toisaalta voisin myös jättää linkittämättä, mikäli tarkoitus on vinkata kaupantekomahdollisuuksista kyseisen tahon kanssa (vaihtaa esimerkiksi iTunes-linkin jonkin toisen musiikkikaupan linkkiin). Ilman lisäosaa jokaisen linkin takaa löytyvän tahon SOPA-kantaa tuskin tulisi erikseen tarkistettua, lisäosan kanssa se selviäisi viimeistään samalla kun testaisin linkin toimivuutta.

Aika rajalliset käyttötarkoitukset siis nähdäkseni, mutta sinänsä varmaankin varsin hyödyllinen väline niissä jotka sillä on.

Currently I’m unable to bring up X entirely with the intel driver

Avainsanat: Intel, Ubuntu

I should note that currently I’m unable to bring up X entirely with the intel driver. Too bad I didn’t make a note of which upgrade this started with. With intel it now just freezes when login screen should appear, with just the cursor showing on a purple background. It’s such a tough lockup that REISUB from the keyboard won’t work, I have to power off to reset. Comparing logs might help determine if it’s the same issue on a grand scale or an unrelated one, but I don’t know how (or if) I can get useful logs from such lockups.

Apport retracing service: typo in ”Crash report cannot be processed” comment (”an useful”)

3. tammikuuta 2012 klo 22.32
Sijainti: Vianhallintajärjestelmät: kieli
Avainsanat: Apport

I got this comment from the bot in a bug report (bug #907668):

”Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate an useful symbolic stack trace). This
might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system
at the time of the report:”

And so on.

Instead of ”an useful” it should say ”a useful”.

gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in g_closure_invoke()

I had plugged in my phone via USB (as a mass memory device), after which Nautilus and Miro crashed. I was trying to send a report from Miro when this occurred. Other GUI apps running at the time were Synaptic, Chromium and Transmission.

There are lots of reports with this title already, but they are all from pre-11.10 era, and I believe there’s a bot that’ll tell me if this is a duplicate so no harm done if it is.

Transmission’s icon looks like a scanner

3. tammikuuta 2012 klo 10.20
Sijainti: Vianhallintajärjestelmät: Launchpad
Avainsanat: saavutettavuus, Transmission

I think it’s worse than just that the icon doesn’t convey the program’s purpose: it looks way too much like a flatbed scanner. I appreciate the difficulty in crafting a descriptive visual representation of a BT client, but IMHO an icon should at least be sufficiently unique so as to avoid mistaking it for other apps of completely unrelated purposes. That’s where Vuze’s frog for example is better (as long as you’re not into Frogger clones). I’ve been running Transmission whenever I’m logged in for years now, and I still occasionally wonder why I have a scanning app running, when in fact it’s just Transmission’s… I’m-not-sure-what-it-is.

I realize this is not a very constructive argument so long as I don’t have anything better to suggest in the current icon’s place, but I promise I’ll start thinking of one right now and hopefully come up with ideas some day.
