[Bug 1767299] Re: Ubuntu 18.04 Installer creates swap partition too small

2018-09-28 Thread Dave Long
I also agree that this 1 GB default is terrible. I have 16 GB RAM
(maximum allowed on this laptop) and on Ubuntu 16.04 I had 8 GB swap and
never noticed any performance issues. Now I reinstalled Ubuntu 18.04
from scratch and ended up with this 1 GB default, once I have a few
Docker containers running, an IDE, and lots of tabs open in Chrome or
Firefox, then I start getting slowdowns, sometimes to the point that the
machine grinds to a halt and the only solution is to power off and
restart.

I have added a swap file as per https://askubuntu.com/questions/1031275
/increase-swap-in-ubuntu-18-04-under-lvm-and-encrypted-file-system in
the hope this will let me work as I did on Ubuntu 16.04, but this still
could be improved for the out of the box experience.

[Bug 1724862] Re: acpi-call 1.1.0-2 ADT test failure with linux-hwe-edge 4.13.0-16.19~16.04.3

2018-01-11 Thread Dave Long
The proposed fix resolves this issue for me as well.

This now affects xenial with the standard HWE stack enabled (not just
hwe-edge) as linux-generic-hwe-16.04 currently selects kernel
4.13.0-26.29, but this errors during the build when dkms is installed
due to this issue.

[Bug 1573959] Re: On-screen text disappears after suspend

2017-03-01 Thread Dave Long
I was affected by this issue in 16.04 with kernel 4.4 but it seems to
have gone away since upgrading to 4.8; it's hard to tell because it is
apparently impossible to reproduce on demand, and only happened maybe 1
in 10 times for me after resuming from suspend.

@kyordhel: I am not sure that specific package is enough to fully
install kernel 4.8; you should try installing the linux-generic-
hwe-16.04 package which will give you the latest 4.8 kernel plus all
necessary dependencies - for example if you did not install linux-image-
extra-4.8.0-29-generic you may well be missing some modules that are
required for decent desktop performance.

[Bug 1663989] Re: Screen flickering

2017-02-20 Thread Dave Long
Confirmed that the bug is fixed in the 4.10 kernel series.

Further confirmed that this is down to the i915.enable_psr parameter:

Linux 4.8 with no command line => flickering (enable_psr defaults to on)
Linux 4.8 with i915.enable_psr=0 => no flickering
Linux 4.10 with no command line => no flickering (enable_psr defaults to off)
Linux 4.10 with i915.enable_psr=1 => flickering


** Package changed: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)

Sorry I should have explained better, I also have a Lenovo Edge E540
which is how I initially found this bug report via Google, but mine does
not have the nvidia chipset, only Intel, so I didn't see how this could
be caused by the nvidia driver.

I will try to test the newer upstream kernel when I get time.

Does adding "i915.enable_psr=0" to the kernel parameter line fix the

Same issue, although I only have Intel graphics. Adding
i915.enable_psr=0 to the kernel parameter line fixed the flickering for
me.

This is apparently solved upstream in kernel 4.9:

[Bug 1173492] Re: XRandR cannot set scaling mode

2014-11-17 Thread Dave Long
In my case the root cause of this issue was corrupted firmware rather
than problems with XRandR (X11-xserver-utils).  The machine in question
had been running lm sensors 3.3.2 which was discovered to potentially
cause firmware corruption in Sept 2013.

The issue was immediately resolved following a re-flash of the BIOS on
the T60 in question.

2013-05-02 Thread Dave Long
I'm using Intel integrated graphics instead of ATI/AMD, and I'm also on
a 32-bit kernel instead of AMD64.  I'm not sure if this points to
separate driver issues, or an issue with X.  I've also noticed that the
issue seems to affect only the Thinkpad LCD (LVDS1), a monitor connected
to VGA1 scales properly.

[Bug 1173492] Re: XRandR cannot set scaling mode

2013-05-01 Thread Dave Long
Seeing identical behavior running Xubuntu 12.10  13.04 on an IBM
Thinkpad T60.  Scaling mode quit working when updating to kernel
3.5.0-27 on 12.10 and continues to not work on 13.04.  Default
resolution for this panel is 1024x768; switching to either 800x600 or
640x480 results in a window of that size at the top-left of the screen
with black borders below and to the right.  Confirmed that booting with
the 3.5.0-26 kernel in 12.10 resolved the issue and scaling resumed
working.

[Bug 907716] Re: Install fails likely caused by a BSD partition.

2011-12-23 Thread Dave Long
I was  able to install a regular Ubuntu 11.10 on the first mentioned system 
without any problems.
Older Ubuntu versions also went without a glitch on systems with BSD partitions.

I don't mind doing a test reinstall of either Ubuntu 11.10 or Lubuntu 11.10 on 
the 2nd system,
but I'd need some guidance on where to look for logs or other things to report 
so others can fix the actual bug.
