[Bug 1164016] Re: restore type-ahead find

2018-08-13 Thread Andrew Simpson
There is a fundamental difference between search (what you do when you
don't know where something is) and navigate (what you do when you know
exactly where something is, and want to go there). Why the gnome team
have chosen to conflate them, and their mental state while doing so, is
anyone's guess. But from a usability perspective, it is broken.

[Bug 1775517] [NEW] Inputlirc systemd file incorrect syntax

2018-06-07 Thread Andrew Simpson
Public bug reported:

With the installed package the following appears in syslog:

systemd[1]: /lib/systemd/inputlirc.service:4: Failed to add dependency on udev, 
Ignoring: Invalid argument
systemd[1]: /lib/systemd/inputlirc.service:4: Failed to add dependency on 
lircd, Ignoring: Invalid argument

I have fixed this by changing the 'After:' line in the referenced
inputlirc service file to:

After=system-udevd.service lircd.service
Wants=system-udevd.service

No errors in syslog.  Inputlirc runs normally.

Note that I also have ir-keytable and lirc installed, though this should
not affect the issue.

2018-03-07 Thread Andrew Simpson
It's a shame there is no way to vote for things here, and instead weight
seems given to bugs with a large number of comments / activity.

The current version of nautilus, which is the very core of Ubuntu, is
broken. Search is not the same as navigation. I do not want to search my
files when I know exactly where the file I want is - I want to go to it.

There are full time Ubuntu developers. This should not be waiting for a
user to contribute a patch.

If that is genuinely the reason (and this bug has been marked as "Fix

[Bug 1164016] Re: restore type-ahead find

2013-07-24 Thread Andrew Simpson
To add my voice to this bug, I installed 13.04 today, on my work
computer (previously Windows 7 only), to enable me to use a variety of
bash scripts to process a large number of files on an external ext3
drive. At home I have 12.10 installed.

The files are images, several thousand per folder, stored in dated
folders (such as 11-04-23-country_location). Now I know, for example,
that I was in Belgium in May 2005, so I type '05-05' and a folder NEAR
the one I want was previously highlighted, allowing me to quickly and
easily find the correct folder. A related task is to go to the next, and
previous, folders. Both of these uses are broken with the new search
set-up.

The Gnome team's total brick-walling of the furious users should give
pause for thought. I simply cannot believe they have shot themselves in
the foot so categorically as to make the staple piece of software, that
underpins their entire user interface, so crippled.

This is a far more serious usability issue than anything thrown up with
the migration to Unity. I would rate it, probably, as the highest, most
disruptive user interface bug I have ever come across in Ubuntu (and
I've been with you since Warty).

The workaround linked by M4he above is good news, but the idea of having
to install a patch to get basic file-browser functionality is insane.
Even more insane than firing up Mac OSX and being faced with the
abomination that is Finder.

Sebastian, it's great news that Ubuntu are listening, and seeing this as
an issue, and I hope a proper solution is forthcoming. At what point
does a frankly bizarre upstream user interface decision like this become
priority #1 at Canonical? When it begins to compromise the very good
work being done with Unity? When does it become worth moving a developer
from Unity onto an issue like this?

[Bug 1019579] Re: No splash; monitor powers off before login

2012-12-16 Thread Andrew Simpson
Much the same as Comment #1.  New install (with old home directory on
separate partition and saved).  AMD64 Kubuntu 12.10 on i5 with Radeon HD
6450.

Shutting down with multiple users causes the system to 'hang' and
require cntrl-alt-del.  I think because the dialog box in Kubuntu for
shutting down other users wasn't showing up.

Changing from DVI to VGA cables has no effect.  Playing with BIOS for
on-board i5 video has no effect.

Added 'plymouth:debug' to kernel boot, and resulting log is attached.


Changed from open source Radeon driver to ATI proprietary (using 'additional 
drivers') and plymouth works as normal.

Using Kubuntu 11.10 the software cannot find all the required icons and
crashes.

Mail-notification has a dependency on 'gnome-icon-theme' but this is not
a full set of icons that are required.

Installing 'gnome-icon-theme-full' package fixes this bug.  Presumably
Ubuntu (Gnome) installs this by default, but of course Kubuntu does not.

Workaround:  Install 'gnome-icon-theme-full' package.

FIX:  Make  'gnome-icon-theme-full' a dependency on 'mail-notification'.
Remove 'gnome-theme-icon' dependency.

[Bug 755342] Re: Samsung Xcover 271 B2710 mass storage does not mount automatically

2011-07-27 Thread Andrew Simpson
Confirming the fix by Michael B also works with a Samsung S5510.

The problem is with usb_mode_switch and the associated udev rules in
/lib/udev.d/rules/40-usb_modeswitch.rules:

# Samsung U209
#ATTRS{idVendor}==04e8, ATTRS{idProduct}==f000, RUN+=usb_modeswitch 
'%b/%k'

These lines do not represent a unique product; the Samsung Xcover 271
B2710 and Samsung S5510 (and others??) also match this line (lsusb gives
04e8:f000).

Commenting out this line fixes the problem on the Samsung 5S5510, and I
would guess the Xcover 271 B2710 too.

[Bug 796871] Re: qualcomm modem wont work

2011-07-17 Thread Andrew Simpson
The blacklist lines in the udev rules '77-mm-qdl-device-blacklist' are
to prevent modem-manager grabbing the port before the firmware is
loaded.  The firmware is loaded through a serial port on /dev/ttyUSB0.
Once the firmware is correctly loaded a new port will open up on
/dev/ttyUSB1.

The problem seems to be that the firmware is not loaded.

To the original poster:  Check that you have 'qcserial' and 'gobi-
loader' installed.  You will also need the firmware files from a Windows
install.  If you Google around for 'gobi 2000 linux' you will find a
number of instructions.  It's a bit fiddly...

[Bug 807889] [NEW] Add hp un2420 to udev blacklist

2011-07-09 Thread Andrew Simpson
Public bug reported:

The UN2420 wwan card needs to be added to the udev blacklist  '77-mm-
qdl-device-blacklist.rules'.

This card is found in several current HP models including at least HP
Mini 5102 and 5103.   It is based on the Qualcomm Gobi 2000 chipset.

The required stanza is:

# HP un2420 Gobi QDL Device
ATTRS{idVendor}==03f0, ATTRS{idProduct}==241d, ENV{ID_MM_DEVICE_IGNORE}=1

The effects of this bug are as previously reported (and fixed for other
cards) in #686418.

Just to avoid confusion:

The UN2420 card starts up with ATTRS{idProduct}==241d  and then when
fully initialised it changes to ATTRS{idProduct}==251d .  The
attached file udevadm.txt is from after initialisation.

We want modemmanager to leave the card alone while it is initialising.

[Bug 654376] [NEW] xfce4-terminal doesn't set TERM env variable

2010-10-03 Thread Andrew Simpson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xfce4-terminal

In terminal Edit -- Preferences -- Advanced -- $TERM setting appears
correctly as 'xterm'

Checking on terminal command line gives:

asimp...@hebe:~$ echo $TERM
dumb
asimp...@hebe:~$ export TERM=xterm  
asimp...@hebe:~$ echo $TERM

[Bug 574462] Re: udisks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM violations

2010-06-26 Thread Andrew Simpson
General Note:

The workaround in Comment #3 won't work for many machines.  This is
because the kernel tries to detect whether the device is an SSD and is
meant to set /sys/block/sda/queue/rotational to '0' for SSD or '1' for
HDD.  However it often gets it wrong (or wrong info from the drive).
Many of the SSD's we have are telling the kernel that they are
rotational!

Use the workaround in Comment #7 or Comment #32 (both same).

[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death

2010-04-20 Thread Andrew Simpson
I'm not convinced this recent problem is related to devkit-disks-probe-
ata-smart (the original bug).  I have experienced the recent problem
once - during an 'apt-get update'.

From what I see it's typified by the kernel giving a READ DMA or WRITE
DMA command, to which the drive responds in an unexpected manner (HSM
Violation).  After a suitable timeout the drive is reset and things
continue.

Also, the bug does not occur at boot, but randomly during use.  And
using the probing with 'Disk Utility' has no affect for me.

The bug is still present, but at least the symptoms can be addressed
this way.

[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death

2010-02-19 Thread Andrew Simpson
@Guy Taylor
The hardware has been generically identified - most Super Talent and Patriot 
devices and less commonly a few others.  The problem seems to be at the SSD 
rather than the bridge. There are enough people following this bug to enable 
compilation of a reasonably complete list if asked.

What device information is required for a quirks table?  Output from
lspci -vv?  Or something else?

[Bug 524243] [NEW] Python-boto crashes with Duplicity and Amazon S3

2010-02-18 Thread Andrew Simpson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python-boto

Using Duplicity to back up to Amazon S3 with Karmic.  Having been using
this back up method for long time (more than one year), but has suddenly
stopped working in the last few days.

Can verify the problem on another machine with clean install of Karmic.
A Debian Stable machine on same network works with Duplicity + Amazon
S3, ruling out network problems.

Installing latest Duplicity from source made no difference.

Installing newer python-boto from Lucid (Python-boto-1.9b-
1ubuntu3-all.deb) fixes the problem.

2010-02-18 Thread Andrew Simpson
@Raf
I closed the kernel bug report (it was my bug report) since it's not relevant 
to the kernel.

I've also nominated this bug for Lucid release - whatever that does.

More importantly the upstream maintainer seems to have lost interest in
fixing this bug.  How does one go about nominating packages for removal
from Ubuntu due to lack of response from upstream maintainer?

[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death

2009-12-18 Thread Andrew Simpson
O.K., I think I have a better workaround for this bug.

The problem is that udev reads the udev rule files into memory and then
uses inotify to watch for changes in the file.  As soon as the rule file
changes, udev is informed and re-reads the file.  That means that when
apt-get updates the rule file, damage can be done before you get a
chance to patch it again.

What I have done is put a dummy file in for devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart
and used dpkg-divert to make the system accept the dummy file.

Run the following command:

$ sudo dpkg-divert --divert --add --rename --divert /lib/udev/devkit-
disks-probe-ata-smart.bak  /lib/udev/devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart

This renames the existing file to devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart.bak and
tells dpkg / apt-get to install any new updates to the _changed_ file
name.

To see your divert (and others in the system):

$ sudo dpkg-divert --list

Now we create a dummy file:

$ sudo /lib/udev/nano devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart (or some other
editor of your choice)

#!/bin/bash
#
exit 0

Save the file.

This dummy file does precisely nothing, but it allows udev to run it...

Make the new dummy file executable:

$ sudo chmod 755 /lib/udev/devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart

That's it.

When the bug gets really fixed, we need to remove the dummy file and
divert:

$ sudo rm /lib/udev/devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart
$ dpkg-divert --rename --remove  /lib/udev/devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart

[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death

2009-12-18 Thread Andrew Simpson
Carrying on from above:

Here's how to patch and install a system safely from the LiveCD (or live
USB) of Ubuntu 9.10.

I booted up the LiveCD and patched the live system as above.  That made
the live system safe to use.  I then installed from the LiveCD (no
errors - good).

However instead of immediately rebooting, I patched the SSD from the
live system:

$ sudo mkdir /target

(In my case it already existed from the install)

$ sudo mount /dev/sda1  /target

$ sudo chroot  /target

You are now in the new (SSD) system as root, but safely running on the
patched LiveCD.  Follow the steps above, but leave out 'sudo', because
you are root.  When finished you can leave chroot by:

# exit

Edit on previous comment:

$ sudo /lib/udev/nano devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart (or some other editor

 $ sudo nano /lib/udev/devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart (or some other

[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death

2009-12-14 Thread Andrew Simpson
@Gav Mack
This is probably a fairly crude workaround, but it works for me.  I just 
disabled the ata-smart disk probe in the udev rules:

In the file /lib/udev/rules.d/95-devkit-disks.rules look for these lines
(Lines 73  74):

 # ATA disks driven by libata
KERNEL==sd*[!0-9], ATTR{removable}==0, ENV{ID_BUS}==ata, 
ENV{DEVTYPE}==disk, IMPORT{program}=devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart $tempnode

Add a '#' in front to make the rule line a comment, like this:

# ATA disks driven by libata
#KERNEL==sd*[!0-9], ATTR{removable}==0, ENV{ID_BUS}==ata, 
ENV{DEVTYPE}==disk, IMPORT{program}=devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart $tempnode

Save the file.

To make sure it's reloaded do these commands:

sudo service udev stop
sudo service udev start

Test with gparted... and notice the difference.

[Bug 445852] Re: SSD stall during boot

2009-12-09 Thread Andrew Simpson
O.K., Reviewing what we do know:

Scott has suggested providing system information, however this already
seems to be listed in this bug report and in the upstream bug report.

He has also suggested trying different kernels to isolate when the
problem started.  This is what we have been doing, HOWEVER comments #75,
#76  #87 have now all shown that something in 'Karmic' is the problem -
and not directly the kernel version.  Have we been chasing the wrong
problem?

We can rule out ext4 and NCQ from comments #79, #87 and #88.

While I would agree with Scott that 'userspace applications' shouldn't
affect the kernel, it does appear a 'userspace application' is affecting
the kernel.

I can confirm that Mandriva 2010.0 (after several weeks of use  lots of
checking) does not have this problem.

My own experience and comment #80 confirms that Fedora 12 does have the
problem.  I have searched the Fedora Bugzilla and can't see a bug report
there.  It would be good to file a bug there.  One of the Fedora kernel
devs has been commenting on the upstream bug report.

What is different about Mandriva 2010.0 compared to Karmic and Fedora
12?   Anything of note other than upstart?

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 445852 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445852

This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug #445852.  However it is
not related to bug #445852, because of the following reasons:

- Bug #445852 is caused by a lost interrupt.  This bug is being caused
by media errors.

-  Bug #445852 results in a HSM violation.  This bug gives a media error
response.  Looking at the syslog there are also plenty of other media
errors as well.

- Bug #445852 is recovered by soft reset of the drive.  This bug can not
be recovered as such and the drive has to be hard reset.

- This bug is occurring in the Intel SSD drive originally fitted to the
early Acer Aspire One.  Bug #445852 has been reported in literally every
(!) netbook SSD, other than the Intel SSD (I have an AA1 with an Intel
drive too, so I have firsthand experience).

2009-12-06 Thread Andrew Simpson
The upstream bug report has asked whether anyone has tested kernels
2.6.29 or 2.6.30 as this would help narrow down when the bug was
(re)introduced to the kernel.

For my own interest, I have noted that the bug generally occurs with
newer/faster SSD units.  For instance the Intel SSD originally fitted to
the early Acer Aspire One is, well, rather slow, but doesn't show the
bug (I have one).  However another same machine (they were brought as a
pair) upgraded with the Super Talent unit does have the problem.  Anyone
notice any similarity?

Alan Cox has suggested that the SSD is responding to a command so fast
that the kernel misses seeing the interrupt.

[Bug 445852] Re: SSD stall during boot

2009-11-18 Thread Andrew Simpson
@Ubuntu Bugs

Can you please have a look at the status of this bug (currently
'undecided')?  This bug could do with some input from the Ubuntu devs.
Here's why:

1. The bug is occurring on a wide range of net books with SSD units.
This is a growing target audience for Ubuntu.

2. In the simplest case the bug makes the machine unresponsive and
impractical to use.

3. If the user continues with the above state, the machine often gets
'bricked'.  Total data loss occurs, and the SSD can only be recovered
with low level formatting (Normal rescue tools don't work).

Total data loss with bricked machines confirmed several times over and
no apparent workaround, has to be a more than 'undecided' bug?

I have opened a bug report on the kernel bug list which is getting some
high level attention.  It would be good if Ubuntu was able to give some
support on this.

@Johan
Interesting comment.  I have private doubts that this bug is totally due to 
hardware 'quality' problems (see the current kernel bug report).

If the hardware was at fault then: firstly, the bug would not be spread
over such a range of differing hardware, and secondly, Ubuntu 9.04
should also be failing in a similar manner?

2009-11-12 Thread Andrew Simpson
A possible work around from the upstream bug report is to boot with
'irqpoll' in the kernel boot parameters.  It's not a good fix, the logs
are still full of error messages, but at least the 'stall' is reduced.

Regrettably, it's probably best to avoid using Karmic on SSD equipped
netbooks.  Use Jaunty instead, since this bug probably won't be fixed in
the near future.

[Bug 445852] Re: SSD stall during boot

2009-11-09 Thread Andrew Simpson
Playing with LiveCD (on a USB stick) with an Aspire One with Super
Talent 16Gb SSD:

- Normal LiveCD boot shows the problem in dmesg.

- Booting with 'libata.dma=0' in kernel line fixes the problem (by
disabling DMA) in dmesg.

- Booting with 'libata.ignore_hpa=0' had no affect.

Since the problem looked to be DMA related, I tried slowing down the
transfer with 'libata.force=udma/33'.  No affect, though plenty of logs
about UDMA being forced to 33.

The same machine is working fine with Jaunty.  Another Aspire One with
the standard (factory) 8 Gb SSD is running Karmic without any problem.

Another 'me too'.

Just upgraded an Acer Aspire One A110 (ZG5) from existing (factory

Running the LiveCD (on USB stick) with 9.10 RC, then opening gParted
shows the essentially the same messages in dmesg as other reports (and
it takes a long time).

Everything else seems fine.

Sorry folks, this turns out to be some kind of USB stick and/or BIOS
problem.

I had copied the ISO image to the USB stick with 'USB Startup Disk
Creator' in Jaunty.  It worked normally on an Acer Aspire One, but not
with the Thinkpad T41 (as outlined above).

Today, I copied the files again with my old reliable Fedora (?) script
'isotostick.sh'  (Had to patch udevinfo -- udevadm to get it working).

Now working 100 % on the Thinkpad T41 with no errors.  Something related
to 'USB Startup Disk Creator' is upsetting the T41.

[Bug 453604] [NEW] Ubuntu 9.10 beta installer hangs on Thinkpad T41

2009-10-16 Thread Andrew Simpson
Public bug reported:

Installing from USB stick with standard i386 installer.  Live CD option
didn't work either.

Installer hangs while detecting system with no useful error messages.
Screenshots attached showing the screens under 'cntrl-alt-f8' and
'cntrl-alt-f1'.

After logging this information, I was able to do 'cntrl-alt-del' and the
installer was able to carry out a shutdown and halt.

Note that one of the screenshots shows /dev/fd0 errors (The T41 has no
floppy drive).  I believe this to be unrelated, and fixed post-beta.

[Bug 444369] [NEW] Settings for Vodafone New Zealand

2009-10-06 Thread Andrew Simpson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mobile-broadband-provider-info

Settings for Vodafone New Zealand are partially wrong.  Three services
are offered: Vodafone, Vodafone (Restricted) and Vodafone
(Unrestricted).

Vodafone points to the APN live.vodafone.co.nz, which is a WAP service
(Not required for Ubuntu?).  The other two have the correct APN
(www.vodafone.co.nz / internet), user (none) and password (none).

Vodafone uses auto assigned DNS.  The DNS servers given on the next tab
are wrong (They do not belong to Vodafone either).  Setting the tab to
'Automatic PPP addresses only' stops the connection working.

Reference: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=40topicid=9780

Now for the record, NZ has two other suppliers.  I have looked up their
details, but I can't verify them as working:

Telecom NZ - XT Network

APN: internet.telecom.co.nz
IP Address: automatic
DNS: automatic
Use Proxy: No
Username: N/A
Password: N/A

Reference: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?ForumId=39TopicId=32983

2 Degrees

APN:  internet

Looks like no username  password.

2degrees currently runs a 900MHz GSM mobile network. Data is provided
using both GPRS and EDGE technology. In the not so distant future we
will run a 2100Mhz 3G/HSPA+ network.

[Bug 378671] [NEW] mouse cursor disappears when stationary

2009-05-20 Thread Andrew Simpson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg

I upgraded from Intrepid to Jaunty on a machine with an ATI card. As per
the warnings, I have changed my xorg.conf file to use the 'ati' driver
instead of 'fglrx' I was previously using. The bug is also present when
using the 'vesa' driver.

In gnome (any application), the mouse cursor now vanishes after about 2
seconds of being idle, much as it normally would when using a full-
screen video application. In some applications, for example where mouse-
over text is important, this is extremely frustrating, since the text
disappears with the cursor.

I'm aware this may be a setting somewhere, but nobody on the forums
could help with where. Even if so, it is unexpected behaviour.

No ath5k module present before, or after upgrade.  This may have been
because the linux-backports-modules package was uninstallable in 8.10

Manually installed linux-backports-modules-jaunty as per the workaround.
This pulled in a whole lot more related packages (that I failed to note

2009-04-10 Thread Andrew Simpson
I've been following this bug pretty much forever now, and I have to say I
think touristguy is not being rude or disruptive, but is bang on the mark.
The discussion was wondering off track and needed pulled back to the point.

Talk of admins granting permission to users, choice of file systems etc is
irrelevant. When I (admin and single user on 3 machines) hit the delete key,
I want the file (created, owned and writeable by me) to be sent to the trash
can. I don't care if it's on my external ext3 hard drive, my reiserfs home
partition or my vfat SD-based camera.

The fact that this doesn't happen is a bug. Let's not get bogged down in
silly rants about security, inexperienced users and other systems but, as
touristguy said, let's get this silly, long running and extremely irritating
bug fixed.

[Bug 350068] [NEW] gdm fails to start X with autologin

2009-03-27 Thread Andrew Simpson

Problem:
Network upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty with Xubuntu.  On reboot after upgrade, 
normal bootup, but error message:

'No exec in session file: .xfce4'  (Can't remember the exact words -
this is close).

Then gdm defaults to a failsafe X mode with just an xterm.  Rebooting,
playing around  looking in logs revealed nothing and fixed nothing.

Fix:
Typed 'exit' at xterm (I see you've disabled alt-ctrl-bksp) to get back to GDM. 
 Logged in and got message:

Earlier on in the base install I saw a message on tty4 that 'lpia' was an 
unknown architecture.

[Bug 305402] [NEW] debian-installer no kernel in lpia

2008-12-04 Thread Andrew Simpson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: debian-installer

This is really a duplicate of #291670 which is filed in the wrong place.

ubuntu-8.10-alternate-lpia.iso from
http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/intrepid/release/

After installing the base system, the installer throws an error:
No installable kernel was found in the defined APT sources

It then offers you to continue without a kernel, or you can say no and
it throws you back to the select a step menu.

I can confirm this bug on an Acer Aspire One.

I wonder if this is because the the kernel is in 'linux-lpia', which may
not be where the installer expects it to be?

** Affects: debian-installer (Ubuntu)
 Importance: Undecided
 Status: New

[Bug 269831] Re: toshset does not support tlsup module (Intrepid)

2008-11-18 Thread Andrew Simpson
I've now managed to get this working. It involved patching and
recompiling simply the toshiba_acpi module, then manually installing the
module. Since I don't really understand what I'm doing, I don't know if
this is the easiest way to get it to work, but it fixed the problem for
me.

I've put a step-by-step guide on the Ubuntu forum here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6203606#post6203606

To try and answer questions individually in case it's still useful:
Andy Whitcroft: I'd figured out the same as you about commenting out the line 
in toshiba_acpi.modprobe, however this caused the modprobe to silently fail. No 
output, but lsmod would not find it.

Ante Karamatić: I guess the patch that shipped is the one I applied?
Even though it says 'historic reference,' it's very much needed:
http://memebeam.org/free-software/toshiba_acpi/

Apparently because of the patch, it's not possible to load the toshiba
and toshiba_acpi modules simultaneously - I don't know what the toshiba
one does though, I don't seem to need it. Depending on which is loaded
first, the second gives a device or resource busy error. I think this
is because they both create/use /dev/toshiba ?

Andy Whitcroft: I'll download and try that kernel now.
