[Bug 1969822] Re: failed storage configuration at install of ubuntu-22.04-server
Hi Dan, thanks for the fast response. No, the disks where clean. I just started fresh (from zero!) using the VMWAre Vsphere Client. New VM -> Add HDD (Create New Virtual Disk, Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed, Store with the VM, 50 GB SCSI (0:0) Hard Disk 1) -> Add HDD (Create New Virtual Disk, Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed, Store with the VM, 300 GB SCSI (0:1) Hard Disk 2) -> Add HDD (Create New Virtual Disk, Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed, Store with the VM, 300 GB SCSI (0:2) Hard Disk 3) -> Add CD/DVD Drive (Connect at power on; Device Type: Datastore ISO File: ubuntu-22.04-live-server-amd64.iso) Then Boot the VM and at the console select Try/Install Ubuntu. Then, went for the "Custom Storage Layout", this was what I did first, and were unable to proceed past the "Storage Configuration" screen. In my second attempt (same session, did not reboot the VM), I went up to the "Help" box in the upper right corner and hit the "Exit to Shell" option, where I did the following fdisk commands manually. This is what may be confusing you, as this made the disks appear as formatted. fdisk /dev/sda (n: create new partition, accept all defaults; a: toogle bootable; w write to disk and exit) fdisk /dev/sdb (n: create new partition, accept all defaults; w write to disk and exit) fdisk /dev/sdc (n: create new partition, accept all defaults; w write to disk and exit) mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1 mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdc1 exit shell and return to installer resume configuring storage layout (here is where I succeeded even if I had to select mount -> Other -> / (as the mount / option was greyed out). My bug report is about two confusing things: 1) starting with fresh disks there is no way of selecting a bootable disk and at the same time selecting / as a mount point (options greyed out); 2) even after formatting the disks in the shell, it is confusing that the "mount under /" option is greyed out and one has to go to "Other", then /. Hope it is clearer now. I am now attaching the complete logs, though I understand they may contain information from the whole session and may be confusing. I can try and reproduce with a new VM from scratch. PS: how can you run asciinema within the installer?

[Bug 1969822] Re: failed storage configuration at install of ubuntu-22.04-server
Moreover, if I go to a shell and format the disks, when I go back to the installer, and hit "Reset" the system recognizes the changes, and shows the disks as "already formatted as ext4", with "partition 1 existing", "not mounted", and with a message saying: "To continue you need to: Mount a filesystem at / Select a boot disk" But there is now way to mount at / (option greyed out). I've been able to work around this by selecting Mount -> Other and ignoring the warning about this being dangerous. Both mounting at / and /var/lib produced these warnings. Mounting at /srv did not. ** Attachment added: "screenshots of installer" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1969822/+attachment/5582185/+files/MergedPDF%2C2.pdf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969822 Title: failed storage configuration at install of ubuntu-22.04-server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/subiquity/+bug/1969822/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1969822] [NEW] failed storage configuration at install of ubuntu-22.04-server
Public bug reported: when booting a new VM using the ubuntu-22.04-live-server-amd64.iso file (VMWare), and following the installer options, I went for a "Custom storage layout", because I had 3 disks and wanted to use disk1 (/dev/sda) as main disk (mounted in /), disk2 (/dev/sdb) mounted under /var/lib, and disk3 (/dev/sdc) mounted under /srv. After formatting all devices and specifying mount points, the system does not allow me to move on, saying "To continue you need to: Select a boot disk However there is nothing I can do to select one! (the option to "Use As Boot Device" is greyed out). If I start again fresh and choose the first disk (/dev/sda) and instead of "Format" I go for "Use As Boot Device", the system (again) does not allow me to move on, saying "To continue you need to: Mount a filesystem at /" (now the option "Stop Using As Boot Device" is greyed out). Hence, in summary, this is very confusing. It is not clear what the installer expects (e.g. how to do things right), and there are no hints provided. ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: installer server ubuntu ** Attachment added: "screenshots of installer" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969822/+attachment/5582183/+files/MergedPDF.pdf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969822 Title: failed storage configuration at install of ubuntu-22.04-server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1969822/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1573003] [NEW] Software Updater (update-manager) window goes away, updates are not installed
Public bug reported: This problem started some weeks or months ago, I can never install updates running the 'Software Updater' (update-manager). The updater launches OK, it checks for updates correctly, but upon clicking the 'Install Now' button, a brief message reads "waiting for authentication" and then the window goes away, and no updates are installed. Running the update-manager from a terminal does not produce any errors or warnings. Everything happens as explained above, and the program silently fails to install updates. However, running apt-get update + apt-get upgrade works perfectly from the terminal. The problem is similar to the one reported here, https://askubuntu.com/questions/546363/software-updater-software-updates-not-working-on-14-04-lts but the solution suggested (installing a threading.py file) does not work for me. I have already a threading.py file in my /usr/lib/python3.4 directory, but replacing it with a newer version from https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3.4/Lib/threading.py did not fix the issue.

[Bug 577038] Re: [Upstream] Hard lock in opening files from a remote NFS volume
The fix for me was to mount the NFS volume 'nolock' in /etc/fstab, e.g: LibreOffice fails to open files in NFS volume: 192.168.1.1:/home/fernan/home/fernan/nfs-mount/nfsnoexec,nosuid,bg 01 LibreOffice now successfully reads/writes files from/to NFS volume: 192.168.1.1:/home/fernan/home/fernan/nfs-mount/nfs noexec,nosuid,nolock,bg01 I can't confirm, however, the workaround proposed by htgoebel. Neither commenting out the following (in /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffice): # file locking now enabled by default SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1 export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING Nor setting SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=0 Nor changing the locking configuration in /etc/libreoffice/soffice.sh to FILE_LOCKING=no worked This is now on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS My NFS server (FreeBSD) remains at 6.4 (RELENG_6_4) as reported previously.

[Bug 437429] Re: No GUI to configure/disable login sound
This feature is being requested repeatedly, in different forums. The issue is certainly not urgent or bad enough to merit attention from developers, but it _IS_ annoying. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/437429 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-utils/+bug/45739 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/114160 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438707 https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/mute-sound-on-login I'm posting a comment to this one because it seems to be the one who is getting more attention. But it seems like there are different interpretations for the 'silent boot' issue: i) a problem with GDM (how to set up a silent login); ii) a more general issue with Ubuntu (make it respond to the 'mute button' present in laptops). Ubuntu will keep its annoying status for the foreseeable future if this is not addressed. Almost all laptops sold nowadays have mute buttons. All laptop owners sooner or later will come across that moment when you wish your laptop would respond to the mute button. When reading in a silent library, in class, when listening to someone else's presentation, or at 4 am in the morning when the rest of the house is fast asleep. Read the other bug reports on this issue. Windows allows you to mute the laptop during the boot/startup process. And so does the Mac OS on their laptops. In my case (Dell XPS M1210, Ubuntu 10), the mute button works late during the boot process. The machine starts responding to it halfway after starting the login process in gdm ... with unpredictable results (sometimes during the greeting sound from my gnome session, sometimes after that). I don't care whether the mute button in my laptop actually triggers a gdm conf change, or if it does its magic at a lower level (sound system). I just want the damn laptop to be quiet! The proposed solution of having a GUI to configure this is useless in many situations, because you often realize too late that you'd like a silent startup (shut down the laptop last night without considering where your next boot will be). Different but reports make attempts at identifying the culprit (gdm, alsa) and in setting some aims and deliverables. The configuration tweaks one can make in gdm are OK for desktops, but although they may have the same final result (no sound on login) they do not address the other main issue with laptops: making Ubuntu respond to the mute button. We need to raise the status of this issue. This particular bug report is about GDM, maybe we have to take this somewhere else? pulseaudio? the kernel? I'm pretty ignorant about these myself, so please bare with me, but I think this issue can't go on like this ...

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 680628 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/680628 Thanks Adrian for the suggestions. I've followed the steps you recommended on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/419143/comments/95 but I'm posting the results here as it seems like i) bug 419143 is specific for the spurious '0a' in cairo generated PDF and I'm not experiencing that particular issue; and ii) you mention that maybe this bug report is not a duplicate of 680628 ... Anyway, using the same simple 'test.pdf' file that I attached to this bug report previously, this is what I've found: a) Check that using poppler to generate the PostScript then sending the PS file directly to the printer bypassing any cups filters works: pdftops file.pdf lpr -o raw file.ps The 'test.ps' file produced using pdftops fails to print (as explained before, the job is sent to the printer, the printer processes the job, but nothing comes out of the printer) (attached: test-pdftops.ps) b) Then use cairo to convert the PDF to PS. This can be done by opening the file in evince and printing to a PS file. Print with lpr -o raw. If this fails but (a) works it is a cairo bug. This works. (attached: test-evince-printtops.ps) Printing to a .ps file from OpenOffice and then sending the .ps file to the printer using lpr(1) also works. (attached: test2.odt, test2-openoffice-printtops.ps) And printing to a .ps file from acrobat also works (but this was expected, because printing from acrobat worked in any case). As reported previously, printing from Gimp directly also failed. But printing from Gimp to a ps file and then sending the postscript file to the printer using lpr(1) also works. (attached: gimptest.gif, gimptest-gimp-printtops.ps) Seems like it's not a cairo problem but a poppler problem then?

[Bug 578380] Re: [regression] can't print from evince
My box is now at 10.10 (Maverick) and the issue is still there (Lexmark T644). The issue affects printing from many apps. Can't print directly from OpenOffice, can't print from evince, can't print from gimp. The only way I've found to get printouts from this box is printing first to a file (.pdf) and then sending the printjob to the printer from Adobe Acrobat. At home, using an HP Photosmart printer I don't see this issue, either in Lucid or in Maverick. Don't know if this is of any help, but probably is, as this is giving a hint about what the problem might be: what page rendering language is being sent to the printer? Postscript? PCL? Who is responsible for generating this output? gs? cups? Maybe there's a bug already reported for one of these subsystems? I can help trying to debug with some guidance. But it's really a shame that a commercial product (Acrobat) is able to send correct Postscript/PCL, or whatever it is, to the printer, and that this bug is still new, unassigned, and marked as low priority after 6 months.

@ #12 I can confirm the same on my Ubuntu 10.04 i386 ooo3.2.0m12 build:9483, against a FreeBSD-6.4 NFS Server. /usr/lib/openoffice/program/oosplash.bin -writer path works. Once open this way, OO allows you to open other files on the NFS volume by navigating through the UI (File-Open), and saving files under a new name in the NFS volume. So far everything works fine.

[Bug 61237] Re: Drag 'n Drop in list view doesn't work
rant This issue has been solved decades ago by the same engineers who designed one of the first successful GUIs: the Macintosh. IIRC this feature was available ever since I remember using a Mac, and that means ~ Mac OS 6, in the late 1980s. It is a shame that in 2009 we're having this discussion. Anyone who cares about user interfaces should study the history of the Macintosh. It's fine to evolve new features if they don't exist in previous works or if the alternatives can be made better. But if they just work, and are almost perfect, you just copy them. Why try to change the behaviour of the Mac OS Finder in this respect? Drag and drop in the Mac is the example that all OSes should follow. Anyone trying to come up with something better should think twice, and present strong arguments. /rant In the Mac, dragging a file to a window containing other folders (in any view: list/icons) just works because there is always white space anywhere ... only the icon (or in a list view, the leftmost column) is the object that gets highlighted (activated) upon passing the mouse over (or when dropping a file). If you don't want to drop a file in a subfolder just drag it elsewhere. In gnome, I guess that the essential mistake is having the space in the list view be treated as a table with rows = files or folders. The consequence is that there is almost no neutral places in the window (non-objects) to drop files to. -- Drag 'n Drop in list view doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/61237 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 372187] Re: nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder
Finally I managed to isolate the culprit. It was a single file, sitting in my NFS-exported home folder. I don't know how it got there (it's an email message), but the filename was a single character, in an unusual encoding. The file is shown by FreeBSD as a diamond with a question mark inside. The file is shown by Ubuntu sometimes as a single question mark. To attach the file to this bug report I have put this file in a folder and created a tar archive. When extracting this tar archive, tar shows this file (tar xvzf ) as '\347'). I have edited the file, and cleared all content, and the problem persists. So the unusual filename is sufficient to cause the crash. The crash can also be reproduced in a local volume (not NFS mounted), so I propose to change the title of this bug report to something like: nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a file with an unusual filename Attached is this empty file (enclosed in an archive). Sometimes (for example when trying to attach the file from firefox, or in File-Open dialogs, the file would be shown by nautilus before crashing as '? invalid encoding'). I cannot reproduce this bug in Ubuntu-9.04 (jaunty) I have copied the tar archive over to a 9.04 box, and also copied the file itself using scp and nautilus would not crash. It would show this filename as a diamond with a question mark inside and would add 'invalid encoding' to the filename. ** Attachment added: A gzipped tar archive containing the file that causes nautilus to crash http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26467871/problematic-nautilus.tar.gz -- nautilus closes (crashes?) upon opening a NFS-mounted folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372187 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 372695] [NEW] create new user account silently fails
Public bug reported: As a system administrator, if you try to create a new account, using the graphical utility (System-Administration-Users and Groups) and you set the user id manually to a value that is already in use by another user, the program will silently ignore the action (it will show the new user in the list, but if you close the utility and reopent it again, the new user is gone -- and it never really gets written in /etc/passwd). The problems, as I see them, currently are: 1. The utility allows you to set the user id to a value that is already in use without giving a warning 2. The utility shows you a list of users that is not a real reflection of /etc/passwd How to reproduce it: 1. Inspect /etc/passwd and look for an existing user account. Take note of its user id (usually 1001 would work) 2. Open the Users and Groups tool, create a new user and in the Advanced tab, set the user ID to this number (1001) 3. See how the new user is shown in the list of users 4. Close the Users and Groups tool 5. Open the users and Groups tool 6. Verify that the new user does not exist.

[Bug 372695] Re: create new user account silently fails
Also, if you add a user and then delete it, you can never add it back again. How to reproduce it. 1. Create a new user, and close the Users and Groups utility username: test userid: 1030 Log out from your admin account, and log in with your test account, just to check that everything works fine. Log out from your test account and log back in as an admin. 2. Delete the test account with the Users and Groups utility, and try to create a 'test' user again, if you want you can close and open the Users and Groups utility again. It tells you that you cannot add a 'test' user because it already exists. 3. Just to recheck that this is a bug. The home folder for this user is still there, which may prevent us from creating a user with this name, so we delete it: sudo rm -rf /home/test Also we check if /etc/passwd refers to this account: grep -c test /etc/passwd 0 No traces left from the 'test' user (or so it seems), however, the Users and Groups utility still doesn't allow us to create this account 'because it already exists' Current problems with this utility: I cannot fix a mistake: What if I made a mistake and want to bring this user back to life? The utility does not help me get rid of all files referenced or referring to this account: What if I really want to create a new, fresh account with this same username/userid combination? -- create new user account silently fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372695 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

there is no error in the valgrind log it seems you didn't stop nautilus before running a new one under valgrind and the valgrind one just looked for a running one and let it do its job As I said to Pedro in a separate message, I don't know how to stop nautilus ... every time I kill it a new process is spawned again ... that's why I said that getting the gdb backtrace was easier for me, because there are specific instructions telling me how to attach gdb to an already running process.

I have the same problem, and adding rootdelay=90 didn't solve the problem. My system: Dell Optiplex 740n CPU: AMD 64 Athlon X2 Dual 3800+ 2.00 GHz HD: WDC WD800JD-75MSA3 (80 Gb, SATA) I believe the system uses an nVidia nForce chipset The problem started happening after upgrading to 8.10. I have now intrepid installed but have to boot the system with the 2.6.24-21-generic kernel (the 2.6.27-7-generic produces the error). If I type 'exit' at the initramfs shell, booting continues normally, and I can even get a graphical display login. However both before typing 'exit' and after that (i.e. at all times) the system emits error/warning messages at 5-7 second intervals (see attached dmesg/kernel.log). During these intervals the system seem to do some checks on the drives (the light on the CD/DVD drive turns on and off, and I can hear a noise, similar to the one during a normal boot when the drive is checked for media). ** Attachment added: dmesg (Dell Optiplex 740, 2.6.24-21-generic) http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19493286/dmesg-2.6.24-21-generic.out -- Fails to find boot device in Intel D945Gnt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290153 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 222732] [NEW] upgrade manager removes all downloaded files upon failure
Public bug reported: [Upgrading from Ubuntu-7.10 to 8.04 using the 'Upgrade' button offered by Synaptic] Upon starting the upgrade, Synaptic first downloads and launches an 'Upgrade manager' application. The bug refers to this application. The Upgrade manager does some preparation before starting and then proceeds to set new software channels and to download information from ubuntu repositories (package index files?). In my case, after some 15-20 minutes of downloads, the upgrade failed because ftp://ar.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy-backports/Release.gpg could not be downloaded. If I start the upgrade again, I have to spend those 15-20 minutes AGAIN downloading all the same files I've downloaded a couple of minutes ago. I have went through this three times, spending almost an hour, before I realized I could change the default repository (now the upgrade is going on fine). Maybe the upgrade manager can be taught to keep the downloaded files for some time (perhaps setting a time-to-live for this files to something reasonable, like 15-30 minutes)? This way, if something goes wrong, and we try to start the upgrade again, we don't have to download evrything again ... ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- upgrade manager removes all downloaded files upon failure https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222732 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 189238] [NEW] command history is missing from vim
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: vim-full In Ubuntu, the history of commands used within vim is missing.

[Bug 52158] Re: Shows pinned packages as available to update
I am seeing this exact same behaviour (Ubuntu Feisty, 7.04) but in my case
I have recompiled one package (screen), using the src .deb package, and
following
all the recommendations to generate a new .deb package and installing this one,
so that I can receive notifications about *updates* (i.e. new versions or bug
fixes).
I needed to do this because I wanted screen compiled with certain configure args
that are not used to make the original ubuntu package.
However, apart from building the package with other configure arguments, the
version
is the same. Nonetheless, update manager tells me that I have 1 update
available:
screen
a terminal multiplexor with VT100/ANSI terminal emulation
From version 4.0.3-0.2ubuntu2 to 4.0.3-0.2ubuntu2
The two packages differ in size, however, so maybe update-manager is basing
its decision to notify on this?
Perhaps you can modify update-manager so that we can choose to omit
notifications
of updates to the *exact same version*?
How to reproduce:
1. Uncomment the deb-src lines in /etc/apt/sources.list
2. Install all dependencies required to *build* pakage-name
sudo apt-get build-dep package-name (screen)
3. Get and unpack the sources
sudo apt-get source package-name (screen)
4. Edit one or more files in the src, apply a patch, etc.
In my case, I just changed two lines in screen-4.0.3/debian/rules
--- screen-4.0.3/debian/rules.orig 2007-08-01 12:25:55.0 -0300

5. Recompile package-name
cd into the unpacked sources directory (screen-4.0.3) and run
sudo dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b
6. Install the recompiled package
sudo dpkg -i package name.deb
7. Notice how update-manager stupidly tries to make you install the original
package over your customized package.
8. It's annoying, and if you forget to uncheck your customized packages can lead
to disaster if the packages are critical ...

[Bug 128290] bash completion doesn't work for 'perl -c'
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: bash Steps to reproduce the problem: touch file.pm touch file.pl Filename completion works in this case: perl fiTAB (correctly completes filename up to 'file.p') Filename completion doesn't work in this case: perl -c fiTAB No completion happens at all! In case you don't know 'perl -c file.pl' or 'perl -c file.pm' is what you do to check the syntax of a perl program or module. It's annoying to have to type the complete PATH to your perl code when you want to check its syntax! Although this particular bug has not been reported before, I think it's related to other reported bugs: Completion doesn't work after 'tar rf' https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/94407 And generally related to how annoying this completion cleverness is when it fails (which is quite often, given that it completely depends on someone writing the completion for each and every possible way in which a command can be written) Completion cleverness is fragile and hence stupid https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash/+bug/94408 ** Affects: bash (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- bash completion doesn't work for 'perl -c' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128290 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 105773] Solved? (Was Re: Feisty - Dell SD Card Reader Now Broken)
Solved? After reading elsewhere about doing a 'modprobe sdhci' before using the card-reader, I tried it, with a card already inserted into the card- reader: sudo modprobe sdhci (no output, meaning it was successful) After having done this, the card reader would work each and every time (also across reboots, just as in Windows!) without having to load the sdhci module again using modprobe ... seems like this needs to be done once to load this module, then the system will remember it ...

[Bug 105773] Re: Feisty - Dell SD Card Reader Now Broken
I have a Dell XPS M1210 and I can confirm that this has been an issue at least since Dapper (6.06). In the past I solved it by replacing the kernel with a custom kernel with the only difference being that MMC is not dynamically loaded (as a module) but built into the kernel. The weird thing is that sporadically, an inserted card would be detected and mounted ... no clue as to why it doesn't work every time. Of course the card reader is fully functional in Windows XP. lspci 03:01.1 Generic system peripheral [0805]: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter (rev 19) 03:01.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Unknown device 0843 (rev 01) 03:01.3 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter (rev 0a) 03:01.4 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev 05) -- Feisty - Dell SD Card Reader Now Broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105773 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
