[Bug 45018] Re: Unlock screen is invisible with Nvidia twinview

2012-07-22 Thread Dave Brady
I'm experiencing what I think is the same problem.  I'm on Ubuntu 12.04,
with two monitors with twinview.  One monitor is 1920x1080, and the
other is 1280x1024.  The symptoms are exactly as described here by
another user:

http://askubuntu.com/questions/151337/screen-saver-issue

Interestingly, the problem doesn't occur if you merely lock the screen.
The problem only manifests if you also blank the screen.  I can still
move the mouse around the first screen, but it stops when I hit the
border to the second screen.  After I blindly enter my password, things
go back to normal.

[Bug 331807] Re: ogg123 buffer write failed writing to FIFO

2009-09-01 Thread Dave Brady
I spent most of my night trying to track down the cause of this not
working.  I'm giving up now, but I thought I would mention this tidbit
(apologies, it's very late, and I don't have time tonight to figure out
the bug fix submission process).  One of the patches applied to vorbis-
tools contains this snippet of code:

@@ -251,6 +251,11 @@
write_amount == buf-curfill ? buf-eos : 0,
buf-write_arg);
 
+if (!write_amount) {
+  DEBUG(Error writing to the audio device. Aborting.);
+  buffer_abort_write(buf);
+}
+
 LOCK_MUTEX(buf-mutex);
 
 buf-curfill -= write_amount;

This is correct, except for the case where write_amount starts out as
zero, which happened a couple of times while I was trying to test this.
It's very possible that Gregory's problem is a result of this bug.  It
shouldn't abort the buffer write if the write_amount is zero to begin
with.  It's an easy enough fix to make.  Just wrap the whole thing in an
if.

As for the bug at hand in this report, it's unrelated, and I have no
idea.  libao is returning an error in ao_play() is all I know.

[Bug 131132] i915 crash in getDrawableInfo

2007-08-08 Thread Dave Brady
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

I've been trying to isolate this bug for quite some time.  I've finally
gotten it to a reproducable state on my computer.  Unfortunately, I did
it with a program of my own writing that I am unable to share the source
or binary for, as I am using some proprietary code for which I do not
have permission to redistribute.

Basically, the problem is that when starting some 3D applications, one of two 
things will happen, about 10% of the time.
1) The X server will crash.
2) The X server will freeze and not allow switching to a tty, necessitating a 
hard power down.

Unfortunately, I have precious little debug information to share, aside
from this, which I gleaned tonight.  It seems to be a bug in one of the
update functions for the i915 driver, where it either crashes or goes
into an infinite loop.  However, if you tell me how to get more debug
information from the X server, I would be perfectly willing to crash my
X server many more times to get this bug fixed.

Hardware Information:
- Toshiba Satellite M50-YK4 laptop
- Pentium M 1.73GHz
- Intel 915GM integrated graphics
- 1GB PC2700

And for the record, this happens with both Feisty and Gutsy.  So far as
I know, it did NOT happen with Edgy.  This also does not happen when DRI
is disabled.  But that's hardly a solution.

Also, this does not happen with XScreensaver or glxgears.  It only seems
to happen with more complicated applications, such as SDL based OpenGL
programs (such as my own), or 3D games with Wine (such as Homeworld).

When the Xserver crashes, this is what is in the Xorg.0.log.old

[Bug 60042] Re: nice doesn't prevent cpu from scaling up.

2007-06-21 Thread Dave Brady
I haven't tried to run [EMAIL PROTECTED] for quite some time, due to this
problem.  I was checking the wiki for the installation script, and I
happened across this:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FoldingAtHome

According to that page of the wiki, the problem is because of Feisty's
switch to a kernelmode governor, and there's a workaround on that page.
I was very pleased to discover the reason and the workaround.  And I'm
thinking that this bug is likely a won't fix.  But I would still prefer
the default to be that the CPU governor ignores processes that are very
nice.

the package gaim-xmms-remote does not work.  The problem is that when
you try to enable the plugin via tools-plugins, it reports to you that
it cannot be enabled, as I am using gtk-gaim and the plugin requires
gtk.  Presumably, this is due to a change in the way GTK presents itself
to the plugin, or a change to gaim.

[Bug 60051] Re: Evolution freezes on close.

2006-10-02 Thread Dave Brady
Sorry, one more update on this bug.  I've discovered the source of this
bug.  It's a specific set of emails in my inbox.  Specifically, the
emails I get from the NCIX mailing list.  If you want to see the bug for
yourself, I can forward you an email, or you can subscribe to the list
yourself at www.ncix.com.

What happens when you get an email from the list is that the preview
pane for the email locks to that email when you view it.  You can view
other emails by double clicking, but the NCIX email is all that will
show up in the preview pane.  When you close the program, it doesn't
close.

I am thinking that separate threads are used for each pane, and the pane
that is showing the NCIX email is freezing.  Since the other panes are
waiting for that thread to be closed when you attempt to close the
program, it just locks up.

The problem does NOT occur when viewing a different email, which leads
me to believe that this is a bug in the XML parser.

[Bug 60043] Re: Grub display is corrupt

2006-09-28 Thread Dave Brady
Sorry, just an update to this.  Since the display is so corrupt on boot,
I was misunderstanding what was going on, and I have re-evaluated this.
I believe it happens like this:

Grub either does not initialize the display, or initializes an incorrect
display (I have since tried vga=792 with no success).  It says that it's
entering stage 1.5, and then goes to a blank screen.  The menu functions
properly, as I am able to select menu options with the keyboard at this
point and boot the correct kernel/OS.  I just cannot see it.

Since the grub has not correctly initialized the display, when the
kernel framebuffer is loaded, the display remains corrupt until X is
loaded.

However, Usplash works fine, although I'm not sure if the status
messages were deliberately removed or not, as this is my only Edgy box.
But I am unable to view console output with Ctrl-Alt-F1, or any of the
others.

Although everything works, I think this is a rather critical bug, as
grub is not overly useful without a display.

custom Metacity theme, called Mist-Khaos.  It's a darkish theme with
white text.  The problem I have is that Firefox tabs do not use my GTK
colours, but use a very light colour while using my white text.  The
result is white on white, and completely unreadable.

These are my vital stats:
Ubuntu 6.10
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1b2) Gecko/20060601 
BonEcho/2.0b2 (Ubuntu-edgy)
Using Tango Firefox theme from repos.

Expected results should be that if the background colour of the tab is
changed, then the font colour should be changed as well.

[Bug 58622] Re: compiz: firefox autoscrolling cursor leaves trailing marks

Confirming.  This has been happening with me for a long long time.  (I
was a compiz early adopter, and this has been present from day one).  I
still have this problem with Beryl.

[Bug 58622] Re: compiz: firefox autoscrolling cursor leaves trailing marks

2006-09-28 Thread Dave Brady
I'm not actually sure on that.  I've been running AIGLX for a long time.
But I did run XGL/Compiz when it first was released, and I don't recall
for sure, but I don't think that it exhibited the same symptoms.

But I do think that it's a compiz problem anyway.  The scroll icon does
not leave a trail when compiz is disabled and AIGLX is left running.
(It's enabled by default in Edgy).

Regardless, I never filed a bug because I thought it would be worked out
of compiz.  But I saw your bug when I was looking for solutions to the
slow scrolling, and I figured I may as well confirm it.

[Bug 60385] Firefox crashes

2006-09-14 Thread Dave Brady
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

I have been having a lot of issues with Firefox crashing... (Dapper).
So I began looking for the source of the problem, so that I could report
a bug.  First, this computer's specs:

Dapper, with all current updates.
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.5) Gecko/20060731 
Ubuntu/dapper-security Firefox/1.5.0.5
Please ask if you would like any more.

I found this page, which detailed a page that had the effect of crashing 
firefox:
http://www.quotesdb.info/freenode/ubuntu/14Jun2006/10.html

So.  I tried it myself, and it crashed Firefox.  Steps to reproduce:

1) Open up a page.  Any page.  This one is fine.
2) Open up this link in a new tab: (http://www.sparikassin.fo/)
3) Scroll the new tab.
4) Close the tab.

.xsession-errors reports this:

INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Did not understand spontaneous code 20

.XYyyZ...Xx.YyyZINTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Did not understand spontaneous

[Bug 60042] nice doesn't prevent cpu from scaling up.

2006-09-12 Thread Dave Brady
Public bug reported:

In Dapper, I could run [EMAIL PROTECTED] on my laptop at minimal cost of heat
and power.  However, with Edgy, despite my upping the FAH process to
nice -n 20, the CPU still clocks itself at its maximum clockspeed,
rather than keeping it at 800MHz.  This is unacceptable to me, as the
fan goes constantly at that speed, and the laptop gets pretty hot.  I
would rather that it have the Dapper functionality of scaling to meet
the needs at hand, and not scaling up when a process is trying to be
really nice.

I would not be reporting this, except it seems like this is a regression
from Dapper.

[Bug 60043] Grub display is corrupt

2006-09-12 Thread Dave Brady
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub

I have a Toshiba Satelite M50-Y2K3 laptop.  I have dist-upgraded to Edgy
from Dapper.  One of the unfortunate side-effects seems to be that grub
seems to have difficulty accessing the framebuffer.  When I first boot
up the computer, grub functions properly, but is almost impossible to
read, as there are vertical white bars going throughout the screen.
Once the Edgy kernel is loaded, the problem goes away, but grub has
severe display problems.

[Bug 60051] Evolution freezes on close.

2006-09-12 Thread Dave Brady
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evolution

Edgy Eft (dist-upgrade from dapper dist-upgrade from breezy)
Toshiba Satellite M50

When I close Evolution, it locks up.  I click the close button, and the
left menu goes grey, telling me it can't be clicked.  Then it stays that
way until I force quit.  I really don't know what else to say, but it's
reliable and does this EVERY time.

2006-09-12 Thread Dave Brady
Well, this is downright surreal, but it's working fine now.  I have no
idea what's going on, but please close the bug.  I'm sorry, this is just
embarrassing, given that I said not too long ago that it happens every
time.  And since then it seems to have stopped.

[Bug 44814] Re: No sound with Intel HDA/Realtek ALC861

2006-08-15 Thread Dave Brady
I am having a similar problem, that I would like to see taken care of.
I have the same chipset, but I am able to play audio just fine in ALSA.
The real issue for me is that OSS does not work.

cat /dev/urandom  /dev/dsp

Does exactly nothing.  It acts like it's working, but no audio plays.
Any app that uses OSS, be it an SDL application, or XMMS, is completely
silent.  Furthermore, I have no volume slider for the master control in
ALSA.  It's a switch... not a slider.  I have attached my sound
information... please let me know what I can do to help get this
resolved.
