[Bug 1371854] Re: users-admin: group name limited to 16 characters
(copied from latest Debian bug message) It appears that this issue is resolved simply by adjusting max_length of the group_settings_name GtkEntry widget. Attached is a patch which increases max_length from 16 to 32 characters. I do not know if this is only appropriate for recent Linux distributions (i.e. if kFreeBSD or other platforms using g-s-t have more conservative limits). ** Patch added: "Increase maximum group name length to 32 characters" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/1371854/+attachment/5023714/+files/max_group_name_32_chars.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1371854 Title: users-admin: group name limited to 16 characters To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1371854/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1404006] Re: grub2-themes-ubuntu-mate partially obscured submenus
Using the default configuration, as of grub2 2.02~beta2-36 the edit dialog seems to no longer be obscured as in the screenshot I had uploaded in 2014: it is drawn over only a centered portion of the screen (see new screenshot "unobscured edit dialog"). However, I've also found that if the GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub/themes /ubuntu-mate/theme.txt" parameter is specified in /etc/default/grub, then update-grub reports "Found theme: /boot/grub/themes/ubuntu- mate/theme.txt", and the submenus use graphical rather than console appearance, and are not obscured (see new screenshot "graphical submenu"). I'm guessing the GRUB_THEME approach for setting the theme is what grub recommends, and that the current method used (file /usr/share/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-mate-logo/ubuntu-mate-logo.grub from package plymouth-theme-ubuntu-mate-logo) is somehow insufficient, since each approach seems to have a different effect on how grub.cfg is generated. So while there may be an issue in how grub is being configured to use the theme (whether from the right package or using the right configuration parameters), there might still be an inconsistency in how grub itself mixes graphical and console interfaces, or fails to detect improper theme configuration and fallback to providing a safe workaround for the user. ** Attachment added: "graphical submenu" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1404006/+attachment/4640333/+files/graphical%20submenu.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1404006 Title: grub2-themes-ubuntu-mate partially obscured submenus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-mate/+bug/1404006/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1364111] Re: Num lock toggling causing mate-settings-daemon, xorg cpu runaway, LED astable
I have duplicated the behavior in VirtualBox 4.3.22 using the 64-bit 15.04 beta 1 livecd, but only when all CPU cores are completely busy (e.g. setting 1 core for the VM and running dd /dev/zero /dev/null). ** Description changed: If the Num lock key is toggled rapidly, there's a chance that mate-settings-daemon will go into runaway CPU usage (causing Xorg to also appear to be in runaway CPU usage), and the Num lock LED will flash/blink erratically (randomly--this is not the steady 2Hz blinking when a kernel panic occurs). By killing mate-settings-daemon, the system can recover; mate-settings-daemon respawns, Xorg goes back to normal CPU usage, and the Num lock LED is stable. - This behavior is present on an up-to-date installation of Ubuntu MATE 14.10 (beta 1)as well as the LiveCD. This seems to apply only to hardware Num lock toggling, as rapid toggling in onboard does not seem to cause the issue. The same does not appear to happen to the caps lock key. The state of num lock is indeed indeterminate when this occurs (e.g. numeric 4 will vary between typing '4' and left-arrow). This appears to be directly related to prior CPU availability, as it is more of a problem on older hardware (e.g. with 2001 Pentium M) where it can be triggered on an idle system, and more difficult to duplicate on later hardware (e.g. with a dual-core processor) unless the CPUs are busy (e.g. other runaway processes). - Only tested on 32-bit; will upload apport info. - --- + Tested on both 32-bit and 64-bit.

[Bug 480159] Re: grub console is ridiculously slow
I'm experiencing this with the NVIDIA Quadro FX 500/600 AGP (if I remember correctly), and ONLY on the DVI port--both when using a DVI monitor or a DVI to VGA adapter. Using grub2-2.02~beta2-15 on Ubuntu MATE 14.10 which by default uses a graphical theme (grub2-themes-ubuntu- mate), so I don't know if I'm experiencing a better or worse degree of slowness. Rather than using the monitor's 1280x1024 resolution as do Linux and grub2 on other machines, it seems to fallback to 640x480 and very few colors, and unless I pass a kernel argument (e.g. vga=795) the console output is unreadable white blocks. The drawing speed seems slightly faster on one of the machines--which I assume is due to a faster FSB (533MT/s vs 400MT/s, since they both use AGP 4x and the one that draws slower has a faster CPU clock: 2.9GHz vs 2.4GHz). If I use GRUB_GFXMODE=1280x1024 in /etc/default/grub, it behaves much faster and in full color, just like when using the VGA port. Fast forward to 2014, and I can find various reports of similar bugs but for quite a variety of hardware, and some of which have been resolved.

I then upgraded to the preview version (2.02~beta2-18 at the time) and noticed a change in some of the boot behavior--e.g. there is now a visible menu and 10 second countdown displayed as well. I think this is due to items of /etc/default/grub (GRUB_TIMEOUT, GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT, etc.), so it might help to post that if it's been modified at all, and I'm not inclined to put myself as affected by this bug unless I can try out/reproduce your configuration. The following should let you try grub2-2.02~beta2-19 for amd64 (BIOS) to see if that makes any difference: mkdir grub-preview cd grub-preview wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/grub2/grub2_2.02~beta2-19_amd64.deb wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/grub2/grub-common_2.02~beta2-19_amd64.deb wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/grub2/grub2-common_2.02~beta2-19_amd64.deb wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/grub2/grub-pc_2.02~beta2-19_amd64.deb wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/grub2/grub-pc-bin_2.02~beta2-19_amd64.deb sudo dpkg --install grub*.deb To revert to 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 (current version for 14.04 trusty, may change): sudo apt-get install grub2=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 \ grub-pc=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 \ grub-common=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 \ grub2-common=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 \ grub-pc-bin=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1318865 Title: The grub boot menu is often not drawn or visible To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1318865/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1247700] Re: default kernel order issue with RC and final versions
At first, it looks like this is simply because /boot/vmlinuz-3.12.0-031200rc7-generic is lexicographically greater than /boot/vmlinuz-3.12.0-031200-generic, but I haven't actually looked at the source for grub2, and something in /etc/grub.d/10_linux may also be responsible for sorting the entries. I haven't come across documentation saying whether or not this is expected behavior, but in bug 476540 it was mentioned how the entry sorting was changed to the algorithm used by dpkg. The discussion in http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42597 would indicate this is issue is due to the intended behavior of /etc/grub.d/10_linux, at least upstream. There are several other similar discussions grub2's kernel menu sorting and /etc/grub.d/10_linux. There was a similar issue reported with update-initramfs that was resolved by using the linux-version command (from linux-base): cf. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=770394 . This might be something to incorporate into /etc/grub.d/10_linux as a solution to this and similar issues. I happened to be testing mainline kernels at the moment, and as a workaround I use grub-customizer to specify which kernel to boot. ** Bug watch added: GNU Savannah Bug Tracker #42597 http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42597 ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #770394 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=770394 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1247700 Title: default kernel order issue with RC and final versions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1247700/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1352523] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 i386 will not boot on Dell Dimension 4600
The graphical capabilities in grub2 are supposedly rather sophisticated nowadays. Graphical boot can be disabled by uncommenting GRUB_TERMINAL=console in /etc/default/grub and running update-grub. This is probably better for your monitor anyways. I would think there are certain modules in grub2 that are responsible for this, but I am not familiar with troubleshooting them other than version-hopping, not unlike you have done. I might suggest installing a more recent version of grub not yet in 14.04 to see if a more recent version has fixed this. Here's how we can install grub2-2.02~beta2-18 (while it's available): mkdir grub2.02b2-18 cd grub2.02b2-18 wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/grub2/grub-common_2.02~beta2-18_i386.deb wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/grub2/grub2-common_2.02~beta2-18_i386.deb wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/grub2/grub2_2.02~beta2-18_i386.deb wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/grub2/grub-pc_2.02~beta2-18_i386.deb wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/grub2/grub-pc-bin_2.02~beta2-18_i386.deb sudo dpkg -i *.deb We can downgrade back if necessary, but what could possibly go wrong? sudo apt-get install grub2-common=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 grub2=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 grub-pc=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 grub- common=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 grub-pc-bin=2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 (2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1 is the current version for 14.04 at the moment; change this for each package if this no longer the case.) I wouldn't think the chipset is an issue, but I don't have any 845PE-based machines on me at the moment. According to the chipset specifications, this model does not have onboard video, so if you happen to have another AGP graphics card, I would suggest swapping to see if the graphics card is indeed an issue. ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1352523 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 i386 will not boot on Dell Dimension 4600 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1352523/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1314924] Re: Adressbox Entries unreadable: Grey/Black Mask overlaying text
As I reported upstream (mozilla-bugs:1005501), the bug is due to xserver-xorg-video-intel, and was fixed somewhere between 2:2.99.910 and 2:2.99.911 (c.f. freedesktop:79165). The bug is therefore already fixed in 14.10, so it should be fixed in 14.04 once the 14.04.2 point release is published (i.e. xserver-xorg-video-intel-lts-utopic becomes available on trusty-updates) on 5 February 2015. I don't see a 12.04.6 point release scheduled, however, so if 12.04.5 is affected, upgrading to 14.04.2 may be necessary. Aside from using ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa (dangerous) and xserver-xorg-video-intel-lts-utopic on ppa:canonical-x/x-staging (which doesn't look meant for general or even troubleshooting use), I otherwise don't know how to obtain a packaged fix ahead of time for 14.04 or at all for 12.04.

[Bug 1364111] [NEW] Num lock toggling causing mate-settings-daemon, xorg cpu runaway, LED astable
Public bug reported: If the Num lock key is toggled rapidly, there's a chance that mate-settings-daemon will go into runaway CPU usage (causing Xorg to also appear to be in runaway CPU usage), and the Num lock LED will flash/blink erratically (randomly--this is not the steady 2Hz blinking when a kernel panic occurs). By killing mate-settings-daemon, the system can recover; mate-settings-daemon respawns, Xorg goes back to normal CPU usage, and the Num lock LED is stable. This behavior is present on an up-to-date installation of Ubuntu MATE 14.10 (beta 1)as well as the LiveCD. This seems to apply only to hardware Num lock toggling, as rapid toggling in onboard does not seem to cause the issue. The same does not appear to happen to the caps lock key. The state of num lock is indeed indeterminate when this occurs (e.g. numeric 4 will vary between typing '4' and left-arrow). This appears to be directly related to prior CPU availability, as it is more of a problem on older hardware (e.g. with 2001 Pentium M) where it can be triggered on an idle system, and more difficult to duplicate on later hardware (e.g. with a dual-core processor) unless the CPUs are busy (e.g. other runaway processes).

This appears to be directly related to prior CPU availability, as it is more of a problem on older hardware (e.g. with 2001 Pentium M) where it can be triggered on an idle system, and more difficult to duplicate on later hardware (e.g. with a dual-core processor) unless the CPUs are busy (e.g. other runaway processes).

[Bug 1338324] Re: CTRL (SHIFT) SPACE blocked by keyboard layout switch - unable to insert non-breaking spaces in Writer
In the xfce keyboard settings, I don't even see ctrl+space as a listed shortcut for Change layout option. Nonetheless, if you are able to change this and it allows typing NBSP, then that is a workaround. Two more workarounds: - In LibreOffice, go to Tools Customize Keyboard and pick a different shortcut for NBSP. - Or, go to Insert Special Character and choose Subset Latin-1, which should select NBSP (unicode U+00A0 (160)). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1338324 Title: CTRL (SHIFT) SPACE blocked by keyboard layout switch - unable to insert non-breaking spaces in Writer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4/+bug/1338324/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

You use a German locale--do you use multiple keyboard layouts? As in bug 1338324, there is a conflict between Ctrl+Space (which I cannot confirm) as an XFCE shortcut and NBSP, which looks like it can be changed in Keyboard settings. If that is the case, this report is duplicate.

[Bug 1291976] Re: installing LO 4.2.1 installs also outdated openjdk-6-jre
The package libreoffice has been dependant on default-jre (e.g. through libreoffice-base) and not any specific openjdk version. default-jre, for 12.10 and more recent, now depends on openjdk-7-jre (unsure as of when), so this issue should be resolved, although it was not a libreoffice issue to begin with. However, I think that if openjdk-6-jre is already installed by something else, libreoffice will not require default-jre (and not openjdk-7-jre either). ** Also affects: java-common (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: java-common (Ubuntu) Status: New = Fix Released ** Changed in: libreoffice (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1291976 Title: installing LO 4.2.1 installs also outdated openjdk-6-jre To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/java-common/+bug/1291976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
