sebras paulgardiner: care to test one thing in mupdf/android?10:06.32 
  paulgardiner: if I have auto-rotate enabled when loading a pdf in mupdf and view it landscape.10:07.14 
  and I either lock the screen or wait for the lock timeout, then when I unlock the screen mupdf will have reverted to portrait again.10:08.00 
Robin_Watts sebras: Have you tested this with other apps ?10:08.46 
paulgardiner Yeah i see that, but for me it immediately rotates to landscape again10:08.58 
sebras Robin_Watts: yes, acroread keeps the orientation.10:10.15 
  paulgardiner: even if you keep the device flat on the table..?10:10.38 
  any accidental movement will of course cause it to switch to landscape.10:10.50 
  something tells me that orientation should be kept in the savedInstance Bundle...10:11.09 
paulgardiner I sort of doubt that. The activity doesn't control it. In fact, any single instance of the activity only ever sees a single orientation. The activity is killed and recreated each orientation change10:13.38 
sebras paulgardiner: I also found that there was some kind of android:????Config="orientation" that one could add in the manifest-file for each activity.10:30.58 
  maybe this is what is lacking..?10:31.10 
paulgardiner Yeah, maybe10:32.02 
Robin_Watts unleashes UTF8 hell on gs.11:30.09 
Flx_ Hi12:51.04 
  Is there somebody available for a little help?12:51.23 
chrisl Flx_: that would depend on what help you need......12:55.45 
Flx_ i'm working on a website, and use ghostscript to convert PDF into JPG12:56.41 
  everything is working in local (WAMP, windows 7)12:57.07 
  but when i upload to my production server (linux, 1&1 hosting), colors are oversaturated12:57.34 
chrisl Like as not, the hosting server has a different (probably older) Ghostscript version on it12:58.15 
Flx_ i used -dUseCIEColor and its works, colors are normal, but i have no real black : there is a strange white overlay12:58.42 
chrisl That's pretty normal for UseCIEColor - it's a horrid hack from before Adobe had proper color management12:59.30 
Flx_ i've used the same version (9.05). On linux i found a function to install it, i thought it would be enough12:59.41 
  Do you have an idea about how i could correct this ? I saw something about ICC color profile, could it help ?13:00.50 
chrisl Put simply, I don't know. I have no idea about how the Linux version was built, or installed, or setup - specifying ICC profiles might help, but not know what the problem *is* makes it difficult to suggest a fix13:02.22 
  If the Linux version was built with out default build, it should produce essentially identical output to the Windows one13:03.06 
  s/out/our13:03.14 
Flx_ Ok, if the result should be identical, my installation must have failed, and its working on the probably older version from 1&1.13:04.19 
  Thanks for your help, i will search that way13:04.29 
chrisl Flx_: if you setup your script (or whatever) to capture stdout/stderr and *don't* specify "-q" and "-dQUIET" then you can see the version being used in the back channel messages13:05.40 
Flx_ ok13:06.20 
  same result than "-v" ?13:06.34 
chrisl Yes13:06.50 
  Also, you're install may have worked, but not overwritten the original, so you might have to specify the full path to the new versions executable, rather than relying on the search path13:07.36 
  Flx_: by the way, I assume you also posted to stackoverflow? If so, the "-dPDFSETTINGS=/screen" is totally pointless (ignored) for JPEG output.13:10.48 
Flx_ Yeah, its my post. Thanks, i wasnt sure about this.13:12.45 
chrisl It related to PDF *output* with pdfwrite, not PDF input13:13.35 
Flx_ You were right about the version13:18.18 
  it's still using 8.7113:18.35 
chrisl Flx_: Okay, so distribution installs usually the exe in "/usr/bin", but custom installs usually use "/usr/local/bin" or similar, you could check there for the newer exe13:19.51 
Flx_ Ok, i've found the right dir, will try to make this work. Thanks a lot sir for this help, have a nice day13:31.22 
henrys holiday in the US ...14:36.09 
chrisl You mean I could have had the day off? Darn!14:37.07 
henrys ;-)14:38.06 
  Robin_Watts: the interesting thing about the new retina macs (to me) is support for more than one external monitor - so it could be a desktop replacement.17:14.06 
Robin_Watts henrys: Well, if you're prepared to live in 768Gig.17:16.48 
  and having no optical drive.17:17.06 
  and a stupidly small number of USB adapters.17:17.15 
  Oh, and probably those external monitors need to be thunderbolt ones.17:18.05 
henrys one can be hdmi17:21.19 
Robin_Watts Oh. one displayport/hdmi one, and one thunderbolt one.17:21.59 
henrys actually: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-3121_7-57460642-220/how-to-power-four-simultaneous-screens-with-the-retina-macbook-pro/17:23.10 
Robin_Watts fair enough.17:26.14 
  Of course, you could buy a really kickass PC with some lovely monitors for the price of that lot. but it wouldn't be portable.17:26.56 
  s/that lot/the macbook alone/17:27.14 
henrys yeah I'm still on the fence about it, nice to consolidate to one machine but the limitations and the apple tax are annoying17:30.04 
Robin_Watts henrys: I wish I'd bought Windows 7 Pro for this one, so I could remote desktop in.17:31.52 
  henrys: Urm... does hintak not have an NDA?20:31.11 
  (re bug 693576)20:31.31 
  oh, you were talking to Math, probably. sorry.20:33.10
