[Bug 386583] Re: Unable to build driver on AMD64

Confirmed. I can reproduce this, and a user in the forums also hit it http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7446117postcount=21. Manually installing dpkg-dev allows the module to build successfully. ** Changed in: bcmwl (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- Unable to build driver on AMD64

Yes. The other day, I temporarily enabled the root account so I could use it with cupsaddsmb. When I was done, I locked it with 'sudo passwd -l root' per the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo. Actually, I just did some more searching bases on what you said, and it looks

Show the mount point (with '/media/' prefix stripped off) instead of 'XX MB removable device' for mounted volumes without a label. This behavior seems to be broken in Hardy. I have a computer with two external hard drives (NTFS-formatted) mounted to /media/external and /media/backup,

2008-03-09 Thread Jonathan Rascher
Ah, I think you may have misunderstood me. I agree 100% that we shouldn't expect users to work around this problem on their own. That would be extremely lame. All I was trying to suggest is that instead of waiting until the next kernel update to fix this, Ubuntu could just release an update to

While I agree that this is a serious and very annoying bug, I don't think a kernel backport is necessary to fix it. A simple udev rule is all that's needed to make sure the allow_restart flag is always set. Here's how to fix it on Gutsy: 1) Open a terminal. 2) Type [ sudo nano

Oops, I typo'd the udev rule in my last comment. It is missing a comma. Oddly enough, udev appears to parse it just fine, but I doubt you'll want to rely on that. Here's the correct version: # Set the allow_restart flag for all USB mass storage devices ACTION==add, \ SUBSYSTEM==scsi, DRIVER==sd,

Double oops. It turns out that the last udev rule I posted doesn't always work. I can't figure out why that is, but here's a simpler rule that seems to work all of the time. # Set the allow_restart flag for all SCSI disks. ACTION==add, \ SUBSYSTEM==scsi_disk, \ ATTR{allow_restart}=1 (Note that

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: hal On Feisty with hal 0.5.8.1-4ubuntu12, there are several valid NTFS-3G mount options that are not listed in the volume.mount.valid_options key for NTFS filesystems. This can cause mounting NTFS-3G devices through GNOME to fail unnecessarily. I
