Bug#948288: A workaround ...

2020-02-02 Thread Md Ayquassar

... that circumvents both problems but does not solve them turns out to be
disabling Wayland and sticking with Xorg by means of changing
#WaylandEnable=false
to
WaylandEnable=false

in /etc/gdm3/daemon.conf and rebooting. The original problems didn't go away, of
course; the bugs still persist in whichever state they might be.


Bug#948288: bugs 948288 and 950504 are related but not the same

affects 948288 gdm3

affects 950504 gnome-shell

In http://bugs.debian.org/948288 , we deal with a segfault of gnome-shell and
Mesa issues using the default kernel command line without nomodeset. In
http://bugs.debian.org/950504, we deal with the boot process getting stuck when
nomodeset option in the kernel command line.


Bug#948288: gnome-shell reproducibly crashes on boot, and the boot process gets stuck

2020-02-02 Thread Md Ayquassar

Dear Bernhard,

As to what happens with nomodeset, I posted another bug report against gdm3:
http://bugs.debian.org/950504. There, we probably won't have to deal with a
gnome-shell segfault and Mesa issues that we have to deal with here.

Best regards,
Md Ayquassar


Bug#950504: gdm3 reproducibly gets stuck upon boot with nomodeset kernel setting: boot photos 1

2020-02-02 Thread Md Ayquassar

Here are some initial boot photos.


Bug#948288: gnome-shell reproducibly crashes on boot, and the boot process gets stuck

2020-02-01 Thread Md Ayquassar

I added nomodeset as described in https://askubuntu.com/a/38834 . Then, the boot
process displayed some error concerning UMS and radeon early in the process, and
the screen resolution is different. The boot process still gets stuck, and
switching with Ctrl+Alt+F1 followed by Ctrl+Alt+F2 makes it continue, but the
segfault message disappears from dmesg.

2020-02-01 Thread Md Ayquassar

In the attachment you find /var/log/Xorg.0.log. It contains some error message.
Concerning nomodeset: can I add it during boot process when the grub screen pops
up?

Bug#948288: gnome-shell reproducibly crashes on boot, and the boot process gets stuck

2020-01-30 Thread Md Ayquassar

First, thanks for a quick response.
Second, is a reassignment to some Mesa package required?
Third, is there anything else I can do as a user to help the developers to 
bugfix
this? Bug at line 1017 is strange: if there is a NULL dereference there, there
should also probably be one in line 1016 unless someone has a deterministic
concurrent access to that data.
Fourth, I apologize for long delays.I don’t always have the laptop at my direct
disposal.

 31.01.2020, 02:09, Bernhard Übelacker  Hello Md
 Ayquassar,
 sorry, I did not recognize that you
 seem to have a usrmerge'd system.

 Then I get following backtraces from your
 core dump, with and without debug symbols.

 It looks like a function pointer gets called
 unconditionally, while containing NULL.
 Seems to be graphics driver related.

 Kind regards,
 Bernhard

Bug#932375: Re: Bug#932375: How to make UXterm use reverse colors automatically?

2019-07-20 Thread Md Ayquassar

Thank you!

The new title describes the issue pretty well.
As for me personally, I'm more interested in a slightly different question of 
how
to have white-on-black uxterm by default. (Naturally, one could hack
/usr/bin/uxterm, but this is likely to break on the next package update).

Reassign reason: as suggested by Sven, the issue is apparently more related to
the window/display manager rather than to UXTerm itself, cf.

Do you run xterm on a different machine than your desktop?

It's all on one and the same laptop for one and the same user.

The first two are definitely ignored, the third ought to work, I think.

For me, it doesn't (see my message from Sat, 20 Jul 2019 17:36:27 +0300).


However, I don't use Gnome and the only Wayland experience I ever had> was with

Weston.

I never used Weston. Right now:

$ echo $GDMSESSION
gnome


There will be nobody who tracks the issue if it remains assigned to
xterm, so that point is rather moot. You could file a wishlist bug for
mutter instead and link to the Gnome gitlab issue I gave you.

I won't be able to write a *good* bug report or a wishlist issue for mutter,
since it's not a user-level application that I interact with directly: I know
nothing about mutter. However, I may reassign the current bug report there.

 That's strange, it should take effect whenever you launch a new uxterm.

 There will be nobody who tracks the issue if it remains assigned to

 mutter instead and link to the Gnome gitlab issue I gave you.

 BTW, instead of reverseVideo you may want to set the Foreground and
 Background resources.

So, would

$ cat .Xdefaults

and a reboot be sufficient? Without rebooting, there is no effect so far. As for
the startup files, I am not aware of any user-level user ones beyond .xinitrc,
~/.Xresources and ~/.config/autostart/*desktop, and all of them seem to be

As for closing the bug report, I see your point. Of course, if you are a Debian

I know about the -rv option. It's one-off, i.e., you have to provide it again 
and
again. As for .xinitrc, I thought that wayland doesn't source it on startup.

 The command-line option -rv is the easy way to turn on reverse-video:

 -rv This option indicates that reverse video should be simulated by
 swapping the foreground and background colors. The
 corresponding resource name is reverseVideo.

 and if I wanted to make my .xinitrc more portable, I'd use -fg and -bg

2019-07-18 Thread Md Ayquassar

Package: xterm
Version: 344-1
By default, the color of a uxterm is black foreground and white background.
However, I'd like to have it reverse: white text on black background. To this
end, I put

UXTerm*reverseVideo: true


into my ~/.Xresources, run xrdb ~/.Xresources, and reboot. I observe no change: it's still black on white as before.  However, there should be a change, and some folks do observe it on other systems: 


https://superuser.com/questions/1461093/how-to-make-uxterm-white-on-black?noredirect=1#comment2203810_1461093

For several (all?) IMAP e-mail accounts of mine in Thunderbird, whenever I write

Bug#915070: wodim ignores -dummy

2018-11-29 Thread Md Ayquassar

Package: wodim
Version: 9:1.1.11-3+b2
Severity: critical

Starting with a blank 4.7 Gb DVD-R in the optical drive "HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW 
GS30N",
my_file.iso containing a freshly downloaded copy of Windows 10 (US English, 
x64),
and issuing
$ sudo wodim -v driver=mmc_cd_dvd dev=/dev/sg1 -dummy -dao speed=1 fs=100m
driveropts=noburnfree -data my_file.iso

twice, I discovered that the first dry run succeeded, but the second did not.
Upon ejecting the disc, I saw a differently colored ring on the disc. So, wodim
didn't turn off the laser completely and thus made the disc unusable.

So, we can no more test wodim's features without destroying discs. In practical
terms, this makes wodim a harmful program. I suggest removing it from Debian
completely.
