15:40:08 <cstim> chris: hi
15:40:20 <cstim> chris: your idea about the auto-save sounds good.
15:40:42 <cstim> chris: would you be willing to implement this? It's solely a question of changing that dialog and the outcome.
15:47:36 <chris> cstim: sorry, I'm swamped - no chance I could get to it.

15:51:25 <cstim> well, I might give it a try this weekend.

23:12:42 *** ram has joined #gnucash
23:15:14 <ram> Am running V2.0.2 on SuSE 10.2. Checking account seems corrupted. Any way to sanity check the database? Have tried Actions->Check&Repair. Didn't fix.
23:15:31 <warlord> How is it 'corrupted'?
23:15:37 <ram> The running balance is not computed properly.
23:15:38 <warlord> Also, 2.0.5 is current stable
23:15:59 <ram> See same problem on 2.0.5 on another machine
23:16:03 <warlord> running balance is only computed based on the standard sort order. Reset your visible sort order.
23:16:22 <ram> how do I do that?
23:16:38 <warlord> View
23:16:42 <warlord> er, View Menu
23:18:23 <warlord> View -> Sort by -> [ standard or default ]
23:19:34 <ram> I have Sort by set to Standard Order. Still see running balance goofed up
23:20:48 <warlord> Even in 2.0.5?
23:21:34 <ram> I have a balance of 6365.28. Then a decrease of 3885.74. Now the balance is 2479.54 (correct). The next entry is a decrease of 130.00. The balance now is -5421.94
23:21:51 <warlord> Can you show a screen shot?
23:22:02 <ram> It appears that instead of subtracting 130.00, it subtracted 2*3885.74
23:22:20 <ram> this is on 2.0.2
23:22:29 <ram> how do I show you a screen shot?
23:22:51 <warlord> You really should update to 2.0.5
23:22:59 <warlord> 2.0.2 has LOTS of bugs in it..
23:23:14 <warlord> as for screen shot, um, gnome has a screen shot app in the menu.
23:23:23 <ram> Let me go over to my other machine which has 2.0.5
23:24:18 <ram> KDE has a snapshot. Let me try
23:28:49 <ram> OK, I have .png file snapshot of my 2.0.5 exhibiting the problem. How do I ship it to you? Am an IRC newbie
23:28:59 <warlord> put it up on a website.
23:29:05 <warlord> then send the URL
23:29:38 <ram> email possible?
23:30:08 <warlord> um... i suppose...
23:30:33 *** kam has joined #gnucash
23:30:58 <warlord> (keep in mind it's 11:30pm here right now)
23:33:48 <ram> yep is 11:30 where I am too
23:33:55 <ram> The mail has been sent
23:34:25 <ram> warlord: don't stay up late on account of this
23:34:29 <warlord> ok
23:35:32 <warlord> ram: this is on 2.0.5?
23:35:49 <ram> Yes, the snapshot was on 2.0.5
23:36:30 <ram> does it look strange to you?
23:44:56 <warlord> yes.. looks like it didn't properly recompute... but istr a bug about that fixed a while ago. but maybe after 2.0.5..
23:48:24 <chris> ram: try temporarily changing the date of the incorrect transaction.
23:53:53 *** twunder has quit IRC
23:55:54 <warlord> This really sounds like a bug that you or hampton fixed, chris.
23:56:30 <ram> chris: changed the date of the incorrect transaction to be later than the next transaction. Well the next transaction now has an incorrect running balance
23:56:53 <ram> Any workarounds?
23:57:05 <warlord> Did you try exiting gnucash and restarting?
23:57:17 <ram> Yes, restarting does not fix.
23:57:35 <ram> Can I keep adding transactions?
23:57:51 <ram> Is the database fine? Just the balance computation messed up?
23:58:17 <warlord> ram: I think it's just the balance computation that's messed up.
23:58:32 <warlord> can you edit the $125.00 txn and re-commit it?
23:58:52 <ram> Will try ...
23:58:55 <warlord> Just edit the 125 value.. You dont have to change the number, but, say, delete a 0 after the decimal..
23:59:05 <warlord> Basically, need to force a balance recomputation.
23:59:24 <warlord> I assume everything is a single currency.
23:59:54 <chris> warlord: I thought it was a sorting issue.
23:59:59 <ram> Everything in my checking is a single currency
