 kthxbye

Hi Julien,
In my case, I use a laptop whose keyboard was rendered useless in X
with this update.
Thankfully I only had a small upgraded set of packages on this day so
the culprit was fairly obvious, and I was able to boot to runlevel 3
and a downgrade to the testing package got me going temporarily.

I also don't use an /etc/X11/xorg.conf, but I have a config in
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ for my synaptics touchpad to enable tapping.

Please consider resetting the severity to higher than wishlist.

Regards,
Bernie

Bug#568872: This issue also affecting radeon 3200HD on anamorphic 16:9 1024x768 plasma display

2010-02-24 Thread Bernard Gray
Hardware is a radeon hd 3200 onboard graphics card, using xorg radeon
driver, outputting to a 42 plasma display @ 1024x768 anamorphic
aspect ratio (rectangular pixels).
Prior to this xorg update it was reporting/working at correct
resolution and aspect ratio. Now xdpyinfo is reporting an incorrect
physical size, and as such applications such as moovida are now
displaying incorrectly (a stretched image).

Xorg.0.log is giving mixed messages - Max Image Size [cm] is correct,
Image Size gives correct aspect ratio (16:9), but Setting screen
physical size is wrong (4:3 aspect ratio).

$ grep -i  size /var/log/Xorg.0.log | tail -n 5
(II) RADEON(0): Using exact sizes for initial modes
(II) RADEON(0): Setting screen physical size to 270 x 203

Bug#513554: Splitting Left/Right or Up/Down creates a non-functioning terminal area in KDE 4.2

2009-01-29 Thread Bernard Gray
Package: yakuake
Version: 2.9.4-1
Severity: normal


Hi,
I'm using yakuake from experimental with KDE 4.2 (also from exp)
If I use the ctrl+shift+T or ctrl+shift+L shortcuts to split the
terminal it creates a blank terminal area with no prompt.
This area does not accept input and cannot be closed unless all other
visible terminals in the split are closed too.

I have pastebin'd a screenie @ http://imagebin.ca/view/w635F1.html

Using the shortcut to create a 4 way split in a new tab does work however.

 I don't understand the above feedback, can you please clarify?

Yeah sorry, I was just saying it may have been purely coincidental
that the icon started appearing after the libqt4-svg package was
installed. My decision to install it was a semi informed guess only.

There is a thread on the sidux forums[0] (in DE section) where the
icon had disappeared and reappeared for seemingly no reason, which
made me second guess what I thought was a 'fix'.

Bug#488538: [PATCH][RFC] ifplugd: improve co-existance with wpa-roam mode of wpasupplicant

2008-07-06 Thread Bernard Gray
Hi,
I have been using the wpa-roam mode of wpasupplicant in (a frequently
dist-upgraded) Debian unstable for about 12 months or more to handle
the transparent wireless roaming. It is robust, reliable, is simple to
configure, and very much a set-and-forget type app.

I would call myself a typical laptop user, I roam between up to 3
wireless networks a day and on occasion require the use of an ethernet
connection for faster file transfer when copying/syncing large amounts
of data from/to my home server (as well as other places on the odd
occasion). When I require ethernet, I manually bring my wireless
interface down and plug my cable in.

I've been testing the patch provided by Kel for the last week, and it
just works as expected in the same set and forget fashion as the
wpa-roam mode. I plug my ethernet cable in, my wireless if is
automatically taken down and the ethernet interface is automatically
brought up and configured. Do my file transfer, unplug my ethernet
(which then brings up the wireless if again) and continue roaming
wirelessly as per usual.

I can see this would be very beneficial to people who roam multiple
ethernet _and_ multiple wireless networks - but for me it is a great
convenience and a logical step forward in network configuration for my
(the average users) purposes/configuration.

As such, I would love to see this patch/functionality incorporated
into the debian package by default :-)

Hi Mike,
Installed iceweasel-gnome-support, but the bug is still appearing
(tested on 3x hosts, iw 2.0.0.14 + kde 3.5.9, debian sid) .
On one host, cancelling the file save dialog then reclicking the file
to save reverts to correct behaviour - as though there is a timeout
period for the broken-ness. However this was not consistent across all
hosts tested.

Further patterns I've noticed:
I was premature saying OpenOffice 1.x formats were susceptible - they
are the only ones (out of the list on the link in my orig post) not
failing within a reasonable period  - 30 clicks.

Bug#473557: iceweasel: Forgets standard application for application/pdf mime types

2008-05-25 Thread Bernard Gray
I can confirm this bug - I've done a bit more testing though and have
the following results:

Firstly, I can only replicate this on iceweasel/firefox + KDE (or at
least, if there are kde mimetype handling packages installed) - it
does not happen on a clean gnome install. Therefore the bug is likely
with IW's handling of mimetypes defined in/by KDE (which seems to be
particularly complex, with multiple definitions in multiple locations)

It is not just pdf file/mimetypes that are forgotten, I can confirm on
all common document formats, (with openoffice.org installed):
OpenDocument: odt, ods, odp
MSOffice: doc, xls, ppt, docx, xlsx, pptx
OpenOffice: sxc, sxw, sxd

There are some sample files at: http://silenceisdefeat.org/~ajd4096/ex2/

To replicate, click on a filetype (.xls in my experience is the
quickest to show the issue), it should get the correct mimetype, and
indicate a default application as per:
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/clearyss/xls1.png

Choose [ok] so that openoffice starts, then close openoffice

Repeat the above (on the same filetype) until the mimetype is
forgotten in the open/save dialog as per:
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y131/clearyss/xls2.png

I find that sometimes all mimetypes are forgotten, sometimes only a
selection are forgotten.


Other environments/testing info:
Confirmed: Debian sid + kde 3.5.9 + iceweasel 2.0.0.14
Confirmed: Debian sid + kde 3.5.9 + fluxbox (running fluxbox as the
WM) + iceweasel 2.0.0.14
Confirmed: Debian sid + kde 3.5.9 + Firefox 2.0.0.14 binary from mozilla.org
Confirmed: Ubuntu Hardy + kde 3.5.9 + Firefox 2.0.0.6 (from gutsy repo)

Cannot Replicate: clean Debian sid + Gnome 2.20.2.2 + iceweasel 2.0.0.14
Cannot Replicate: Windows XP + firefox 2.0.0.14
Cannot Replicate: Mac OS X v10.5 + firefox 2.0.0.14

-

Other notes: it is budget time here, a lot of users are receiving a
lot of attachments, it's causing quite a bit of disruption. If more
information is required, I am at your immediate disposal ;)

I would also be interested to know if there are other paths to
resolution that you would recommend I take in parallel to this one.

Bernard Gray

 Your bug report is similar to the upstream bug at the URL above. This one
 is marked as fixed in driver 2.3.0. So I am closing this debian bug.

 If you happen to reproduce your problem with xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.3.0
 (currently in experimental) or 2.3.1 (soon in unstable), feel free to reopen.

Thanks for the response - I've been testing the 2.3.0 driver in debian
experimental the last 4-5 days and the problem is not reproducible.

Bug#477419: New Upstream version available 0.9.3

2008-04-23 Thread Bernard Gray
Package: smb4k
Version: 0.9.2-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,
Due to general stability issues with unmount I'm experiencing with the 0.9.2
release, plus the authentication issues, could you please package the new
upstream release:

From https://developer.berlios.de/project/shownotes.php?release_id=14254 :

Release Name: 0.9.3

Notes:

Overview:This version comes with a backport from the current development
branch that improves the handling of login information. To achieve this, the
format of the data that is written to the wallet had to be changed and,
thus, Smb4K 0.9.3 is not compatible with earlier versions. The conversion of
the old data will be done automatically. Apart from that two (un)mount
issues and a regression in the network browser have been eliminated.

MD5 sum: f3a7f08c442c9db821244c8b5d3d4718 smb4k-0.9.3.tar.bz2
SHA256 sum: 6ea441c176eea9ca5712244411c38b74563a94be689fda1d836d473114e44f01
smb4k-0.9.3.tar.bz2
Changes:

* Revised and optimized the code of the password handler. One
consequence is, that the format of the wallet entries is not compatible with
previous versions. The old entries will be converted automatically.
* Fixed a regression in the browser, where the list of shares was not
deleted when an host item was collapsed.
* Fixed an unmount problem that occurred when mount.smbfs is indeed a
symlink to or a copy of mount.cifs.
* The mount command now includes the NetBIOS name of the local host,
which is at least needed when using port 139.


Thanks,
Bernard Gray

Hi Roger, no probs (and I apologise for my delayed response too :/  )


  Firstly, about the printer models.  I don't own either a Stylus Photo
  915, nor an R300, which means I can't personally do much about the
  problems.  If you subscribe to the gimp-print-devel mailing list at
  sourceforge.net
  (https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gimp-print-devel), you
  will be able to ask the developers directly--it's likely this will be
  rather quicker than for me acting as a go-between).  However, see below
  before you do this:

  All of the Epson printers which gimp-print supported should continue to
  work in gutenprint.  So, the developers will be interested in fixing any
  problems with particular printers which don't work.

  Klaus: you will need to set LogLevel to debug in cupsd.conf, restart
  cups and then look at the log file after printing a file.  It should
  show you what's going wrong.  Just send the whole log to this bug
  address if you're unsure.

  Bernard: the same applies here, but from your mail, the device URI:

   Device URI: epson:/dev/usb/lp0

  looks wrong.  The epson backend should be replaced by the usb
  backend.  You can do this by editing /etc/cups/printers.conf and
  restarting cups, or by modifying the printer in the web interface.


I emailed the gimp-print-devel list with some updated info (included
testing on an Epson Stylus Photo RX590 as well) - but I think they are
waiting on a response from you?

Ok, I found (and fixed) my issue:
In the interest of presenting a clean log, I booted a sidux 2008-01
pre2 livecd to test from.
There still seems to be a bug in the kde control center when adding
the printer (that's for another report), but adding it from the cups
web admin interface from a fresh livecd boot worked a treat (much to
my surprise).
The printer now appears twice in the list of possible devices:
EPSON Stylus Photo RX590 USB #1 (EPSON Stylus Photo RX590)
...
Gutenprint USB Printer #1 (EPSON USB2.0 MFP(Hi-Speed))

After choosing the first entry, the correct driver is automagically
chosen in the next step of the setup dialog, and after completing
setup, the printer works flawlessly :)

With the broken cupsd.conf, only one entry appears in the cups admin
interface selectable devices list:
Gutenprint USB Printer #1 (EPSON USB2.0 MFP(Hi-Speed))

In the KDE control center, the new cupsd.conf also has a selectable
Local Printer option which was greyed out with the broken
cupsd.conf.

Sure enough, I copy the /etc/cups/cupsd.conf off the livecd boot, onto
my hd install and I can install the printer and it works! So, it seems
user error is the cuprit here, a dist-upgrade without diff-ing a major
cupsd.conf format change (in my case at least).

I'm not sure of the easiest way to rebuild the cupsd.conf file via
dpkg/apt (I can't find a sample floating round in /use/share/*), so
I'll just post the working cupsd.conf  -

Bug#471413: q965 frequently hard locks when starting X

2008-03-18 Thread Bernard Gray
Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.2.1-1
Severity: important

Kernel: 2.6.24-1-686

I am experiencing the issue reported on the xorg bugtracker here:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14867

It only occurs on my machines with intel q965 graphics chipsets (I
have tested on 3 identical Dell Optiplex 745 desktops), and does not
affect Intel (82)Q35 graphics chipsets (tested on Dell Optiplex 755
models).

The symptom is: upon X starting, just before loading mouse cursor the
screen goes black with a single non-blinking cursor in the top left
corner. The machine does not respond to keyboard input, mouse input,
or pings and must be power cycled. This symptom does not occur every
time, but it occurs in the majority of cases (~80% of the time)

I have tried building the version of xserver-xorg-video-intel in the
xorg git tree according to the suggestion in the upstream bug report,
it did not help, and so far exhibits the symptom described above 100%
of the time.

startx output seems to be getting buffered before it writes to the log
file and consequently no new output appears in the Xorg.0.log after
reboot. I can capture the output if I startx from a remote shell
(output is listed below)

Bug#470832: new upstream release available (0.46)

2008-03-13 Thread Bernard Gray
Package: Inkscape
Version: 0.45.1-1.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,
Inkscape 0.46 for linux has been released as of the 10/3/08 - due to
outstanding issues in the win32 build the PR release is being delayed
til the 24/3/08 (and as such I'm guessing you may not have been
notified via DEHS)

Source is at:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93438package_id=99112

Ubuntu have a package in Hardy as of yesterday:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/inkscape

This is my first report of this kind, I hope I've included enough information -

Thanks,
Bernie

Bug#468101: installing ocsinventory-agent pkg in a chroot jail hangs

2008-03-02 Thread Bernard Gray
  Hi,

  I'll need more details to solve this problem.

  Can you try running some debug commands, for ex strace (strace -p pid
  of process) to see where the installation hangs ?
  Also, since it is a chroot, please ensure that /proc and /dev are
  mounted.


/proc and /dev are mounted. As a side note, I can install a full suite
of desktop software in the chroot as well (xorg + kde), but
ocsinventory-agent is the only package having an issue.

strace in the chroot results in the following (let me know if I cut
out too much):


# strace apt-get install ocsinventory-agent

### a lot of output while it sets up deps ###

Bug#468101: installing ocsinventory-agent pkg in a chroot jail hangs

2008-02-26 Thread Bernard Gray
Package: ocsinventory-agent
Version: 1:0.0.8-1
Severity: normal

Symptoms:
Running `apt-get install ocsinventory-agent' inside a chroot jail
causes the install process to hang at

 Setting up ocsinventory-agent (1:0.0.8-1) ...

Restarting the install does not help.
Previous releases (with no debconf selection options) did not have an issue.
It does not seem to matter whether I choose local or http options, and
debconf preseeding produces the same symptoms.

Bug#467177: With newer versions the Epson Stylus Photo 915 dosn't work anymore

2008-02-26 Thread Bernard Gray
I am finding I am unable to print to a usb connected Epson Stylus
Photo R800 on debian sid:

ii  cupsys-driver-gutenprint
5.0.2-2   printer drivers for CUPS

I create a new printer via the cups admin web interface:

aaa-eps-r800
Description:
Location:
Printer Driver: Epson Stylus Photo R800 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.2
Printer State: idle, accepting jobs, published.
Device URI: epson:/dev/usb/lp0


When I try and print a test page from the cups admin web interface, it
returns the error:

Unable to open parallel port device file: Permission denied


$ ls -l /dev/usb/lp0
crw-rw 1 root lp 180, 0 2008-02-28 01:41 /dev/usb/lp0

My user is a member of both lp and lpadmin groups

If I restart the printer, and try to print another test page I get a new error:

/usr/lib/cups/backend/epson failed

This error appears in a current cupsys bugreport on the ubuntu bts:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cupsys/+bug/183110


If I restart the printer a second time, and try to print another test
page I get the original error:

Unable to open parallel port device file: Permission denied

Is there more information I can provide?

 But this is the former path, and it wasn't changed in the value passed
 to debconf because it would break existing installations.

Ok that makes sense - I noticed you tagged it as pending too.

Thanks for the quick responses :)

Bug#452344: incorrect DEBCONF_DAEMON path in /etc/init.d/gdm

2007-11-22 Thread Bernard Gray
  -DEBCONF_DAEMON=/usr/bin/gdm
  +DEBCONF_DAEMON=/usr/sbin/gdm

 Sorry, but this path is correct. Debconf is passed the /usr/bin/gdm
 value, not /usr/sbin/gdm.

 What is the contents of /etc/X11/default-display-manager on your system?

as mentioned above, the contents are:
/usr/sbin/gdm

I can get past the 'if' test in /etc/init.d/gdm start) if the path in
/etc/X11/default-display-manager is changed to: /usr/bin/gdm

but this path is non-existent:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/bernie# apt-file update

hence the bugreport.

Why does /etc/init.d/gdm rely on a bogus path in
/etc/X11/default-display-manager ?

Bug#452344: More info

2007-11-21 Thread Bernard Gray
It was brought to my attention that perhaps some extra info was required - I

# echo /usr/sbin/gdm  /etc/X11/default-display-manager

then start gdm with

# /etc/init.d/gdm start

This draws the error because of the following test:

$ grep Not starting gdm.init -B 2
  start)
if [ -e $DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER_FILE -a
$HEED_DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER = true -a $(cat
$DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER_FILE 2 /dev/null) != $DEBCONF_DAEMON ];
then

is not the default display manager

I hope that is enough info -
