[Desktop-packages] [Bug 35248] Re: Regression: CUPS does not print to HP Deskjet 3745

2018-10-25 Thread Chas IRONS
I have just tried the simple fix shown above:

sudo sed -i 's/HP (HPLIP)/HP/' /usr/share/ppd/hplip/*

The result is:
sed: can't read /usr/share/ppd/hplip/*: No such file or directory

Bug description:
  The HP Deskjet 3745 USB printer worked under Hoary and Warty using the
  HP Deskjet 3740 print driver.

  In Breezy and Dapper I have failed to get it to work with the CUPS
  Deskjet driver (Deskjet 3740 doesn't exist anymore) or the hplip
  system.  It can't even print a test page.

  CUPS appears to think the printer sent the test page fine and the page
  printed; it never makes it to the physical printer.  It also seems to
  not notice the USB cable was pulled out; even though cups no longer
  sees the printer, it states its status is "Ready" at all times.

  Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'cups';
  however, that package was not published in Ubuntu.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 35248] Re: Regression: CUPS does not print to HP Deskjet 3745

2018-10-25 Thread Chas IRONS
My printer does not print since I upgraded Ubuntu to 18.04.1 about 10
October 2018.

I have followed advice in over 30 emails from several guys using ubuntu-users 
list without success.
The error "Filter failed" keeps appearing. 

I am a retired end user of Ubuntu since 2004, but still do not know much
about linux or cups or debian.

So I finally read some of the advice in 
https://wiki.debian.org/DissectingandDebuggingtheCUPSPrintingSystem
and started to do some steps but got very lost.

The printer works well if I switch to Windows 7 but that is little use because 
that has very few apps in it.
I am quite sure this problem can be solved but I only have the skills to do 
terminal commands that I can copy and paste.

Please help me get this printer to work again

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 527157] Re: Brightness controls skips Levels.

2014-02-02 Thread Chas Emerick
This bug seems to have gone stale (again?), but I'd like to report that
it affects me with:

* 13.10, fully updated
* Thinkpad T440p (FHD panel, if that matters)

Using the slider in Settings > Brightness & Lock, it seems that there is
~15 brightness levels (it's hard to get an exact count, since each level
is pretty subtle, and the mechanics of manipulating the slider aren't
the most precise).  However, using the screen brightness "media" keys
(doubling as F5 and F6), I can distinguish between only 4 brightness
levels.  Each press of these keys pops up the brightness
overlay/notification in the upper-right, and the bar there changes
properly, but the actual screen brightness changes in a step function,
rather than linearly.

  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

  Expected:
  Hitting brightness up key or brightness down key changes brightness by one 
level out of 15.

  Actual: 
  Hitting brightness up key or brightness down key changes brightness by two or 
three levels out of 15.

  
  When I use the brightness control keys from a fresh install, the brightness 
jumps THREE increments.
  By creating /etc/modprobe.d/video.conf and setting
  options video brightness_switch_enabled = 0
  I reduce this to consistently TWO brightness events, but this is still double 
the normal events.  If I kill gnome-power-manager, it returns to single 
brightness events.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1026046] Re: Missing support for thumb resting on bottom of clickpad

2013-08-13 Thread Chas Emerick
Confirmed with a 4,2 Macbook Air.  Thankfully I have a trackball in hand
most of the time, but this is definitely the biggest drawback I've
encountered so far since switching from OS X a couple of days ago.

FWIW, xf86-input-mtrack has recently added two options that sound
promising:

* IgnoreThumb - Whether or not to ignore touches that are determined to be 
thumbs. Boolean value. Defaults to false.
* BottomEdge - The size of an area at the bottom of the trackpad where new 
touches are ignored (fingers traveling into this area from above will still be 
tracked). This is represented as a percentage of the total trackpad height. 
Defaults to 10.

I don't have the heart at the moment to attempt to swap out the
synaptics driver for xf86-input-mtrack (the .deb I found looks like it
depends upon an experimental xorg input abi); hopefully a fix for this
comes along before I get desperate enough to try...

Title:
  Missing support for thumb resting on bottom of clickpad

Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “xserver-xorg-input-synaptics” source package in Precise:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When using the trackpad on the MacBook Pro In Mac OS X it is possible to have 
the thumb resting (ready to click) on the bottom part of the touchpad while 
moving the mouse pointer around with your index or middle finger. 
  Likewise it is also possible to use two finger scrolling with the index and 
middle finger on the upper part on the track pad while resting the thumb on the 
lower part of the trackpad.

  This behaviour is not currently supported with the synaptics driver in
  12.04. It wil register a two finger scroll when the thumb is resting
  in the bottom part and index finger moves around in the upper part.

  I have tried playing aroud with the setting AreaBottomEdge that
  disables all motion on the bottom part of the touchpad. Unfortunately
  when this setting is enabled it still detects a finger in the area, so
  it wil register a two finger scroll like before.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1059633] Re: Emacs 'Ediff' Window Shrinks Horizontally To One Column Wide

2013-02-24 Thread Chas Hewgley
Workaround I use:
after starting ediff-buffers, or ediff-files, for example:
1) ctrl-alt-num pad 5  -- this maximizes the small ediff window to whole 
screen; it contains text 'type ? for help'
2) type ?-- this brings up the help text; this window 
still fills up whole screen
3) type ?-- this minimizes ediff window; on my system, 
this little ediff window is not visible at all now
4) proceed w/ ediff session -- ediff responds as though commands were typed 
into little ediff window even though it is not visible.  Typing ? again brings 
up help text in a window that fills whole screen, then type ? again to make it 
go away.
*Note* if, in the middle of ediff session, user switches to different window, 
by using alt-tab for instance, then comes back to emacs, the focus will no 
longer be in the small ediff window, but in the emacs frame itself.

Using:
GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.10)
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
unity 5.18.0-0ubuntu2

  Emacs 'Ediff' Window Shrinks Horizontally To One Column Wide

  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Unlike previously reported bug #941790, this bug involves a horizontal
  shrinkage to one column wide (multiple rows), and is still present in
  GNU Emacs 23.3.1.  Resizing the window isn't a work-around, as the
  window immediately shrinks again.  The behavior is observed as
  follows:

  Run ediff-buffers
  A new window, 'Ediff', opens and contains the text "Type ? for hlep" 
  In the 'Ediff' window, type the character '?',  This is supposed to display 
helpful info on the ediff commands
  Ediff window will expand, then shrink horizontally to one character wide
  Grabbing the frame and reszing will cause the shrinking behavior to repeat

  Releveant packages / versions:
  Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
  GNU Emacs 23.3.1
  Unity 5.16.0-0ubuntu1
