[Bug 801471] Re: Ubuntu 11.04 installer crash, right at the end

2018-04-03 Thread Eric Ongerth
Hi Simon,

I hope you can see that this report was from 2011 and that I commented
in 2014 saying it was likely too stale to bother. I was very surprised
today to see your comment and I recommend simply closing this issue
since the version is far in the past.

Same problem --

Fresh install of Ubuntu-14.04.1 64-bit .iso followed by two reboots and 
certainty of all apt-get updates installed
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 video card
No Additional Drivers detected by the built-in tools.

For now I'm enabling the xorg-edgers ppa but I shouldn't have to and
it's not the best way to go.

[Bug 1380002] [NEW] nvidia-331-uvm 331.89-0ubuntu5: nvidia-331-uvm kernel module failed to build

2014-10-10 Thread Eric Ongerth
Public bug reported:

Sorry for the scant awareness here, but I was just computing along
when this happened.  At the time, I think an 'apt get update' was
running and that's all I was really doing besides browsing Facebook or
something in Chrome and looking up Ubuntu community help topics in
Firefox.  Then the graphics driver crashed.  That's all I'm really aware
of for this one.

[Bug 1315167] [NEW] Cross-workspace app switching from launcher is broken after resume from sleep

2014-05-01 Thread Eric Ongerth
Public bug reported:

When I resume my computer from sleep there is only one problem I've
found.  Otherwise sleep and resuming from it work fine.

To reproduce:
1. Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit, all up to date.  Enable multiple workspaces (for 
example I use 2x2).  Start some applications on more than one workspace.
2. put computer to sleep (suspend).  Not hibernate, just regular suspend, using 
power menu at upper right corner.
3. resume.
4. Using the launcher, click an app that is running but is not on the current 
workspace.

Expected: the display switches to the workspace containing the chosen
app.

Actual: the display does not switch just by clicking an app that is
currently running on a workspace other than the current one.  Everything
else works, you can switch workspaces by keyboard or by using the
workspace switcher if present on the launcher.   And after you have
switched workspace manually like this, the normal expected behavior
resumes.

In summary, *if it is the first thing you try to do after resume from
suspend* the clicking of an app in the launcher when that app is running
on a workspace other than the one currently visible will not result in
switching the visible workspace.

Thank you for any action on this.  It is not a big problem so I don't
need a workaround.  But one hopes it will be fixed in time.

[Bug 927742] Re: banshee moves to next song then stops playback

2014-05-01 Thread Eric Ongerth
I can confirm this is still the case in my configuration -- Ubuntu
Trusty Tahr (14.04), 64 bit desktop version, and banshee 2.6.2.

It is somewhat ironic that enabling the gapless playback option
actually CAUSES a gap in playback.

I do not experience playback fully stopping, and in my case it is also
not intermittent.  Instead, each song begins playing, and then after
just the first fraction of a second of music, I hear about a half second
of silence, then the playback continues.

[Bug 751575] Re: banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound

2014-04-29 Thread Eric Ongerth
It's still not a bug, just a difference between what newer Linux users
may expect and normal Ubuntu behavior.

When I posted in 2011 I was still new to using Linux on a system with
multiple hard drives, though I had used it for longer on a single-drive
system.  Ubuntu, and Linux distros in general, are never going to auto-
mount hard drives by default.  The fact that Windows does so is an
interesting difference (which wastes a lot of electricity) but it should
not influence the Linux world.

The apparent banshee bug filed here has a simple explanation: the
drive(s) containing the music in your banshee library must be mounted
before you try to play your music.  When people (including myself)
noticed that re-scanning the library appeared to fix the problem, that
was only true because they actually had to mount the drives before they
scanned the library.  And they perhaps did not notice that the drives
became mounted as a necessary side-effect of going to look at them
manually in their file manager.

Regardless of my innocence in 2011, I think it's clear that it's not
banshee's problem if you want to play music located on a drive that is
currently not mounted.  Mounting and unmounting drives is an subject
whose primary issues are power conservation and connection or
disconnection from resources, allowing the facts of whether those
resources are local or remote to be nicely abstracted over.  That
subject has nothing at all to do with a music player, which is only one
of endless programs which may need to access content on a drive.

If banshee were to add the behavior of mounting drives when we go to
play music from them, it would not be responsible to leave them mounted
once banshee was closed, but it also would be wrong to unmount them on
closing banshee because other applications may be using them.  So there
again these are two issues at right angles to each other.

@michaelchirico4: Even easier (for some at least) than one line in the
terminal -- just open nautilus or whichever file manager you use and
you'll see your drives listed in its left column.  A single click on
each one that you want to mount should get it going.  The only waste of
time or space with this is that you then have a file manager window open
that you may not have needed.  But the drive(s) will stay mounted if you
close that window, or you can just minimize it based on the assumption
that you might end up needing a file manager view during your session.

Even simpler than that is that Ubuntu can show your drives in the
launcher so you can mount them from there.  Unfortunately as of 14.04
there is no right-click option to mount a drive, so you just click it
and this still opens a file manager window, but it does accomplish the
mounting so that's one click less.  Ideally the launcher view of drives
would by default show (visually) their mount status and have a right-
click option to mount.

[Bug 751575] Re: banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound

2014-04-29 Thread Eric Ongerth
Hi Michael, I agree with Chow Loong Jin that deleting your banshee
database and re-importing your library will most likely fix everything
in your latest description.

I'm sorry to hear of your frustration with Linux.  That was my opinion
circa 2008-9, but in recent years I have been much more pleased.  I
think I may have adjusted my use patterns.  I agree that an open-source
operating system just does not come with anyone who is paid to care
about the problems we experience.  But on the other hand, closed systems
sort of don't have support either unless you are willing to go through a
process that is at least as difficult, often worse.  In the long run I
am quite pleased with 14.04 and it's leaps and bounds ahead of where my
first Ubuntu box was with 10.04.

Best of luck with everything.

[Bug 1247221] Re: Nautilus doesn't remember setting for showing hidden files correctly when org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser show-hidden is true

2014-04-27 Thread Eric Ongerth
John Doe, if you have not done so already, uncheck Show hidden and
backup files in nautilus' Edit  Preferences  Views.  At least that
will change your default so you won't be reverting to showing hidden
every time you open a nautilus window.  It won't remember your use of
View  Show Hidden Files (or Ctrl+H) from one use to another, but at
least your default will be what you want.

[Bug 1247221] Re: Nautilus doesn't remember setting for showing hidden files correctly when org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser show-hidden is true

2014-04-22 Thread Eric Ongerth
@Sebastien: I tried a guest session just now.

1. This was my first time using a guest session since installing 14.04.

2. On this first opening of the guest session, the nautilus preference
was found to be unchecked, so it did not show hidden files.

3. Leaving the preference unchanged, I used Ctrl+H to show hidden files,
and observed that some files were displayed.

4. I closed nautilus and then opened it again.  Hidden files were not
shown.  I repeated this sequence again to be certain.

5. I changed the preference to Show Hidden Files (checked), and observed
that hidden files were displayed.

6. I closed nautilus and opened it again.  Hidden files were shown; the
preference was respected as before.

7. Leaving the preference unchanged, I used Ctrl+H to hide hidden files,
and observed that hidden files were no longer shown.

8. I closed nautilus then opened it again.  The setting was not
remembered, and only the preference was respected.


Conclusion: in a guest session, it appears that only the preference determines 
the behavior when nautilus is opened.  Once it is already open, the temporary 
setting can be changed via Ctrl+H (or View  Show Hidden Files), but it will be 
forgotten when nautilus is closed.

This is the same behavior as in my regular user session.  The only
difference is that for my regular user, the preference defaulted to Show
Hidden the first time I used nautilus after installing 14.04, while in a
guest session the default was NOT to Show Hidden.

Sorry for the length of my post : it is difficult to be exact about
these things in a short post.

[Bug 1247221] Re: Nautilus doesn't remember setting for showing hidden files correctly when org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser show-hidden is true

2014-04-21 Thread Eric Ongerth
My similar bug report on 14.04 got linked to this one.   But mine is not
identical.

The difference: on this report the original poster writes, When changed
via gui the setting is remembered correctly.  In my case that is not
true.  No matter whether I use Ctrl+H or View  Show Hidden Files, the
setting is never remembered after I close nautilus.

If I'm remembering correctly, this used to be remembered.  In 14.04 the
*preference* for it is remembered (in Edit  Preferences) but the
current value of the setting is not remembered.

Something that should be added to the symptoms in this bug report: it's
not just that the setting is not remembered; it's also that the
preference (In Edit  Preferences  Views ) is apparently set to Show
Hidden and Backup Files by default when you install or upgrade.  That
probably was not the intended behavior.

2014-04-21 Thread Eric Ongerth
Technically, the title of this bug report is a little misleading.

It says Nautilus doesn't remember setting for showing hidden files
correctly when org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser show-hidden is true.

But nautilus also doesn't remember the setting when the preference is
false.  So the title of this discussion is giving the false impression
that this problem is only happening in one of those two cases, when
actually it is both.

...Or else I have a distinctly different bug.

[Bug 1310390] [NEW] nautilus showing hidden files by default, does not retain view setting

2014-04-20 Thread Eric Ongerth
Public bug reported:

Summary:
Since 14.04, the nautilus file manager is always showing hidden items when I 
open it.  The setting can be changed, but reverts when I close the app so the 
next time I use it it again defaults to showing hidden items.

Expected behavior: nautilus defaults to not showing hidden files and
folders.  User can press Ctrl-H or use View  Show Hidden Files to
toggle the setting.  And the new setting persists when nautilus is
closed and later re-launched (or in future sessions).

Current behavior: nautilus defaults to SHOWING hidden files and folders.
The setting can be toggled as expected.  The setting does not persist
after the window is closed.

This is occurring both on the system I reported it from (an upgrade from
13.10 to 14.04) and on another system with a fresh install of 14.04.

2014-04-11 Thread Eric Ongerth
I experienced this during the process of upgrading from 13.10 to 14.04
final beta in a terminal window using the command sudo do-release-
upgrade -d.  Running the command suggested in the warning message in a
console window during and after the upgrade did nothing useful.  After
completing the upgrade and rebooting there has been no problem and
further invocations of apt-get update and apt-get upgrade have gone
smoothly.

I did have one failure to boot, the very first reboot after the upgrade
it appeared the video wasn't initialized or something.  This may be
unrelated but I summarize it here just in case.  Rebooted again, chose
Advanced Options, enabled network, ran dpkg several times to fix broken
packages.  Rebooted once more to find the wrong video mode, rebooted one
final time and everything is running correctly ever since.

[Bug 658865] Re: Install from USB fails: An attempt to configure apt to install additional packages from the CD failed

2014-04-03 Thread Eric Ongerth
Same as above, this is still a problem when installing 14.04 final beta
from a USB stick created with either unetbootin or ubuntu's own Startup
Disk Creator.  Same solution as above worked for me.

I want to recommend Ubuntu to my friends who are discontinuing Windows
but it's hard to believe I have to give them these special instructions
so that they can install it from a downloaded ISO and a USB stick.  I
hope it is clear that this is a very very popular path for installation
and it should not be broken.  It's surprising this has been an open
issue for over three years.

Same here, attempted to install Chrome stable .deb 64-bit using the
save-and-open option from Firefox, going with the default of allowing
Software Center to do the installation.

On a second attempt I saved the .deb in my Downloads folder and then installed

This worked correctly.

I had this bug back when Saucy was new, and the fix for it back then

unity-panel-service worked as an immediate fix, but I hope the bug does
not return.   This was on a fresh boot.   Apparently something

Thank you!  Here is the output of apt-cache policy banshee:

banshee:
  Installed: 2.6.1-2ubuntu1

  Version table:

The output of banshee --debug  banshee-debug-log.txt is attached.  As
you can see, an equalizer preset that I made appears to be getting
loaded, but I don't see any obvious reason why the equalizer is grayed
out and inaccessible in banshee's menus.

Thank you for the comment on reinstalling banshee.  I don't know why I
came to the incorrect conclusion that that would result in having to
reimport my audio files.  I must have been confusing it with other times
that I reinstalled my whole OS.

[Bug 879328] Re: Equalizer option is disabled / grayed out

2013-11-04 Thread Eric Ongerth
Hi Loong Jin,

Well, this may be good news  --

Ctrl+E still activates the equalizer!  I had not thought to try it
before since the option was grayed out on the View menu.

I suppose that is probably easier to deal with (though also lower
priority) than if the equalizer was becoming totally inaccessible.  I'd
love to see it fixed, but since it works for me by keyboard command I
won't make any more noise on this bug.

Thank you for the help.

Best,
Eric

Is anyone working on this?  Do I have to reinstall banshee?

Same problem, fresh new install (not upgrade) of 13.10, really wasn't
happy with rhythmbox under 13.10 so I installed banshee.  When first
installed, two days ago, banshee's Equalizer was available.  I changed
one or two extensions (I did NOT enable anything connected with
Last.fm.).  I cannot remember exactly which extensions I checked or
unchecked but both of the extensions relating to Last.fm are UNchecked.

gst-inspect-0.10 | grep equalizer shos 10 band, 3 band, and N band
equalizer in place and yes, gstreamer0.10-plugins-good is installed.

Any other ideas on this?  I hope I don't have to (a) reinstall Banshee
or (b) play a guessing game with all possible combinations of
extensions.  Thanks in advance.

[Bug 86689] Re: firefox does not recognize some font styles

2013-04-08 Thread Eric Ongerth
Yes, the same problem is still in effect as of Firefox 20.0 on all of my
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS systems including a clean install.

The problem and a successful workaround are described well here:
http://keramida.wordpress.com/2009/11/07/dejavu-condensed-as-default/

From reading other bug reports and issue trackers, it appears that
application teams (Mozilla and others) and GTK+ developers have pointed
at each other, so the problem is stuck in the probably won't fix zone
and has been for several years now.  This is bad for a lot of users who
find DejaVu Sans Condensed to be by far the clearest, most readable and
comfortable font on their machine, especially for web browsing.

I am sorry that I currently have to trick Firefox into recognizing this
font by forcing a font substitution.  At least it works, which is more
than I can say for Chrome... thus far I have not discovered any way to
make DejaVu Sans Condensed available in Chrome's font picker.  That
issue alone is completely constraining my choice of browsers.

[Bug 571568] Re: Dejavu condensed fonts not working in openoffice 3.2

2012-12-04 Thread Eric Ongerth
This is not actually an OpenOffice bug per se, but an interaction
between Ubuntu's fontconfig and several different programs, including
(but not limited to?) Open/Libre, Firefox, and probably several others.
What these seem to have in common is the use of GTK+ font chooser
dialogs.

There is an entrenched situation where devs from Ubuntu, GTK+, and
Firefox (to name a few) have all decided that it's each other's issue
and not their own.

I am very grateful to the author of the following post, which is the
only acceptible/elegant-enough workaround that I've found:

http://keramida.wordpress.com/2009/11/07/dejavu-condensed-as-default/

Currently there is really no default or easily installable font that
makes Firefox read as smoothly on Ubuntu as Windows defaults.  The
regular versions of DejaVu Sans or Bitstream Vera Sans are just
unnecessarily wide.  And it is a shame that this is so because DejaVu
Sans Condensed *is* 'available' -- just not actually _reachable_ within
Firefox or several other important programs without hacking.  Bah.

I third that... Ubuntu backup (deja-dup to Ubuntu One) has not worked

I'm sorry it's not working.  I'm not going to change backup folders

2011-12-02 Thread Eric Ongerth
OK to close -- see UPDATE at the top of original report above.

** Description changed:

- I'm fairly close to a noob on this, so I'm just reporting exactly what
- the error window says:
+ UPDATE: Possibly still a bug, but this resolved itself over two days.  1
+ day after this report, and after a reboot or two, the system was still
+ in an imperfect state -- if I ran Update Manager or tried apt-get
+ update from a shell, these programs would begin and then quit with no
+ message.  Update Manager would create its window and then disappear and
+ close itself, leaving no process running.  apt-get would just terminate
+ quickly with nothing printed to the terminal window (although curiously
+ the cursor would backspace over my prompt).  2 days after the report was
+ filed (i.e., today) the system runs normally and the error has not
+ recurred.  I can run update manager and apt-get as normal.
+ 
+ So this still seems like some kind of bug: the system was able to get
+ itself into a state where I both was unable to run update-manager or
+ apt-get update, an error icon was shown in the bar at the top right of
+ the screen, and the ordinary bug-reporting tool did not work with the
+ update-manager crash window (it seemed unable to identify the update-
+ manager package as update-manager).  But, since it resolved itself, I
+ withdraw my interest in this item.  Thanks.

[Bug 898758] Re: update-manager crashes; problem with merge list

2011-12-01 Thread Eric Ongerth
One last thing to add to my original report.  I also ran sudo apt-get
clean after running the Janitor utility.  But again, that was two or
three days ago and it seemed like the system was fine until then.  Then
just today, update-manager showed this problem.  So perhaps that is
unrelated.  But I am still suspicious that either janitor or apt-get
clean caused a dependency problem or mishandled the merge file that the
system reports is messed up.

Attaching the merge file that was reported in the error message:
/var/lib/apt/lists/us.archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_oneiric_universe_binary-i386_Packages
just in case that helps.

Happy to attach others if requested, sorry my attempt to upload the apt
logs etc. failed before.

[Bug 801471] [NEW] Ubuntu 11.04 installer crash, right at the end

2011-06-24 Thread Eric Ongerth
Public bug reported:

I am filing this report not from inside the installer, but still before
a reboot.  So according to the instructions below, I will attach
/var/log/installer/syslog and /var/log/installer/partman.  I was unable
to file from inside the installer because the wireless connection widget
did not appear at that time so I couldn't access the 'net.

Oops... OK, well maybe the above isn't true?  Because there is /var/log,
but there is no /var/log/installer.  Also, I have /var/log/syslog but
NOT /var/log/partman.  The latter just is not there.  So I'm submitting
just /var/log/syslog.

So the incident I'm reporting is: right at the end of the installer,
just before it finished, a window popped up to say the installer crashed
and recommending that I should make this report.  Oh, one other thing
too... the installer crashed in my previous attempt too, which was an
attempt to do a side-by-side install with an existing Windows Vista.
That was my first and only attempt before, and it crashed early in the
process, like right after partition adjustment.  So I abandoned that,
rebooted from my USB stick with the live CD image on it, and this time
(my second attempt in total) told it to erase everything and just
install Ubuntu 11.04.  The process went well, including downloading
updates for a long time, but then right at the end it reported this
crash.  I guess that's all I can say about it.

[Bug 751575] Re: banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound

2011-06-10 Thread Eric Ongerth
One more observation.  Today I forgot to mount my media drive before
starting Banshee and trying to play from a playlist.  When I clicked the
play button, in the past it has just not worked, though sometimes
Banshee made at least some sort of visual indication that I had clicked
the button, but nothing more.  Today something more happened, which is
probably a bug.  Today I was doing this on the second monitor of my two-
display desktop, and when the play button failed to work, a terminal
window that I had on that second monitor moved itself from the second
monitor to the first.  That is strange...

Well anyway, the workaround is just to manually mount the media drive
before trying to play anything from Banshee.  But I'll repeat that
Banshee should probably mount the drive if it's not mounted, or at least
give a meaningful error message instead of silently failing (with side
effects).

[Bug 751575] Re: banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound

2011-06-08 Thread Eric Ongerth
OK, one day later the problem is back.  There are only two real changes
I made to my Ubuntu 11.04 system since yesterday when I deleted
banshee's media db and re-imported media which caused it to work
properly again.

Since yesterday I set up the Empathy Internet Messaging widget that is I
guess part of Unity, and I installed mysql, mysql-client and mysql-
workbench.  I don't think any of those things are likely to have caused
a sound problem.  Also I have logged out and shut down the system since
then, then came back today and booted up.  See additional idea about
mounted volumes below.

Sound is working on my system in other ways.  Chat notifications make a
beep.  Totem Movie Player 2.32.0 works properly (its about window
shows using GStreamer 0.10.32.

But I still get the same GStreamer resource error: NotFound errors if
I run banshee from terminal and then try to play songs from my media
library or a playlist.

I think I found a clue to this.  When I right click on any of my tracks
and choose Open Containing Folder an error dialog pops up saying The
folder could not be found.  Please check that the track's location is
accessible by the system.

All of my tracks were imported from an NTFS-formatted internal hard
drive that I had on this computer when it was a single-boot Windows 7
system.  It is now a dual-boot with Ubuntu, and Ubuntu has become my
primary OS.  So I went and imported all of my old iTunes folder from one
of the old Windows drives into Banshee.  That part is no problem, it
imports nearly six thousand tracks and plays them correctly.

But it looks like maybe sometimes when I start the system and open
Banshee it can't find my files because the source drive is not mounted
or something.  What do I have to do to keep that from going wrong?

Thanks!

[Bug 751575] Re: banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound

2011-06-08 Thread Eric Ongerth
I should have realized it while I was typing my previous message.  All I
have to do is manually mount the source drive before I try to play the
files in Banshee.

So it's not exactly a bug, but it is a usability issue.  Some new users
(especially newcomers to Ubuntu) will not understand why their files
import and play correctly but stop working after a reboot.  Of course
experienced users will immediately know it is because the media needs to
be mounted.

Maybe Banshee should detect this condition and either mount the media
automatically, or at least give an error message that tells what the
user needs to do.

[Bug 751575] Re: banshee no longer plays music gstreamer resource error NotFound

2011-06-07 Thread Eric Ongerth
This should be reopened!  I'm seeing a lot of internet chatter about the
same issue.  Banshee at some point (this is within 24 hours of a
completely fresh install of Ubuntu 11.04 with the default installation
of banshee) just stops playing music.  I have only imported a single
time, which brought in approximately six thousand tracks, all of which
were from an iTunes folder so 100% of them are likely to be playable
with no codec problems.

Who knows what caused it, but the evidence of the error was as follows, when 
banshee was started from terminal and I then attempted to play files:
[Error 09:07:18.856] GStreamer resource error: NotFound
[Error 09:07:19.124] GStreamer resource error: NotFound
[Error 09:07:19.395] GStreamer resource error: NotFound

(one of these lines per attempt to click the Play button).

Unfortunately I cannot answer Kamus' questions asked to Pete above,
because I have already deleted ~/config/banshee-1/banshee.db and then
re-imported my media, and it fixed the problem.

Please do not close this issue; it's real and not someone's imagination.
But I realize you have to do that if someone does not answer.  If you
ask me follow-up questions I will attempt to answer them to the best of
my ability.

2011-06-07 Thread Eric Ongerth
By the way, if it happens again I will try the test Kamus suggested to
Pete in the messages above -- I will try playing other media in other
ways, such as opening a video with Totem, etc. and make sure system
sound and other media players are working.  But I will have to wait
until (if) the problem happens again.
