[Bug 607926] [NEW] video players (totem, vlc) crash during video mode change when using Xv and compiz

2010-07-20 Thread Jeff Epstein
Public bug reported:

If video is playing during a video mode change, the player application
will crash, under certain conditions.

To reproduce: Using Lucid, nvidia drivers 195, and compiz. Play any
video in any video player, such as totem or compiz. While the video is
playing, change video mode, either via gnome-display-properties, or
xrandr (in some cases it may be necessary to change video mode twice).
The video player will crash.

What I expect to happen: The video player doesn't crash.

Notes: This only happens if compiz is in use; the bug is not present
with metacity. It only happens if Xv is used for video; if you turn off
Xv via gstreamer-properties, totem will not crash during mode switch
(although vlc still will; presumably, it ignores that particular
setting). This didn't happen under Jaunty with a similar configuration,
and so is a regression. So this looks like some ugly interaction between
Xv, compiz, and nvidia.

Additional note: The player will also crash if it is active during a
suspend-to-RAM/resume operation, presumably because resume involves a
video mode change. In that case, however, there is an additional
problem, which is that after the resume (only if a video player was
running at the time of suspend!), Xorg consumes huge amounts of RAM and
CPU time, and system responsiveness is seriously degraded, requiring a
complete system restart (restarting Xorg does not suffice). I don't know
if this is a different symptom of the same bug or a separate bug.

The error message produced by totem when it crashes is:

The program 'totem' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 507 error_code 11 request_code 133 minor_code 19)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

I will be happy to provide more detailed information of any sort.

Well, in Xorg.0.log it says:

Please see the

[Bug 600517] Re: dkms is not processing vboxdrv must do manually

2010-07-15 Thread Jeff Epstein
Mario,

Per your suggestion to address this issue to the individual modules. So
far as I can tell, all dkms-using modules in the repositories only
contain install scripts to build for the current kernel, and therefore
they all suffer this problem. Would you suggest creating a separate bug
report for each package that uses dkms?

The kernel modules in question (virtualbox and nvidia) weren't already
built for me because I installed them after I upgraded to the new
kernel. Other users in a similar situation will have the same problem.

Yes, running the following command worked. Thanks.

[Bug 600517] Re: dkms is not processing vboxdrv must do manually

2010-07-14 Thread Jeff Epstein
Mario,

Thanks for replying. So, one consequence of this design decision is that
if you select a different kernel from the GRUB boot menu, dkms modules
will fail to build for that kernel and subsequently won't load. This
creates a negative user experience, if the user (like me) expects to be
able to switch freely between between kernel versions. This can be
especially harmful if (again, as in my case) a new kernel version
introduces a regression, and so I try to boot the old version, but now
that version doesn't work either due to not loading kernel modules; the
result is that no matter what version I select from GRUB, I have a
broken system.

So, I would urge you to reconsider that design decision.

In any case, is it possible to re-enable the old behavior of
automatically rebuilding kernel modules on boot as necessary?

As I recall, under Jaunty, there was a dkms service in /etc/init.d that

[Bug 588317] Re: xorg hogs too much memory after resuming from lock screen causing the desktop to be unresponsive

2010-07-14 Thread Jeff Epstein
Does this bug happen after locking the screen, or only after resume from
suspend?

I have similar performance issues after resume from suspend, in which
Xorg always uses 10-15% of CPU (on a quadcore) and uses more and more
memory and the performance of the system as a whole is degraded,
resulting in a jerky mouse and slow loading of programs. I didn't have
tihs problem under Jaunty. I can include logs, if helpful. This could be
an nvidia issue, or an Xorg issue, but it doesn't happen on my system
with Intel graphics.

Do we have the same bug?

[Bug 554980] Re: two finger scroll/multitouch not working on lenovo thinkpad w510 having SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad..

2010-07-13 Thread Jeff Epstein
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 308191 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/308191

Everyone wants Ubuntu to be as good as it can be. Idealistic notions
aside, the fact is that there is a limited amount of manpower to attend
to these bugs. So, in the interest of expediting a fix that will be
adequate to the largest number of users, I'll compare these bugs:

bug 554980 can be fixed with a simple patch to gnome-mouse-properties.
In fact, it was working in Jaunty, and this represents a regression.
Multitouch emulation is in the system, it works, and it simply needs a
GUI to activate it. This could even be done in lucid-updates.

bug 308191 touches a lot of packages and much of the required code isn't
deployed. There is no way this can be done in Lucid and probably not
even in Maverick. Even with a far-off, allegedly superior solution that
would resolve bug 308191, the user experience would be exactly the same
as if we fixed bug 554980. Genuine multitouch and multitouch emulation,
at this point, are indistinguishable to an end user. And while "expert
bug fixers" are spending time on a more difficult solution, they are
neglecting other, far more serious, bugs.

So, we have to choose: if we value a user experience, which enables two-
fingered scrolling in the near future, let's fix this bug. If we want to
spend years in development creating the ultimate solution, while users
get a sub-par operating system, then let's ignore this bug and focus on
308191.

In any case, this is not at all my decision to make. I'm just a user to
would like to have a solution that works as soon as possible. If the
Ubuntu community decides otherwise, so be it.

That's my last word on the subject.

Sense:

I agree that a more thorough solution is better, and it's not for me to

who just want to be able to scroll with two fingers, there is a solution
today that works, whereas a comprehensive multitouch solution, touching
on kernel, drivers, desktop environment, and applications, is months or
years away.

2010-07-12 Thread Jeff Epstein
Gursimran:

1. If scroll is invoked with one finger, increase the value of
EmulateTwoFingerMinW. Yours is 3, which is very small. A value of 5
works well for me, but your number may vary, depending on your touchpad
and your fingers.

2. It's not a fix, it's a workaround. A fix would involve a patch to
gnome-mouse-properties.

3. This bug is not about multitouch, but about two-finger scroll. Since
my workaround allows two-finger scroll, I think it's a valid workaround.
There is another bug for multitouch. If a person wants two-finger
scroll, what difference does it make if he gets it through multitouch
emulation or through real multitouch? I don't understand your complaint.

4. Pinch/zoom via multitouch are features that depend on application
support as well, and to the best of my knowledge no applications support
for Ubuntu support these gestures, so this is more than a driver issue.

2010-07-11 Thread Jeff Epstein
These instructions assume that you are using up-to-date Lucid with a
Synaptic touch pad:

1. First make sure that you have a Synaptics touch pad. Execute the
command:

xinput list|grep Synaptics

You should see this (or something similar):

⎜SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=11   [slave  pointer
(2)]

2. Then execute the following command (all on one line) to temporarily
enable two-finger scrolling via multitouch emulation:

synclient TapButton2=3 HorizTwoFingerScroll=1 VertTwoFingerScroll=1
EmulateTwoFingerMinZ=29 EmulateTwoFingerMinW=5 JumpyCursorThreshold=200

If the above command produces an error, you don't have a compatible
touchpad. If it doesn't produce an error, but two-finger scroll doesn't
work either, try adjusting the value of EmulateTwoFingerMinW and
EmulateTwoFingerMinZ in the above command and executing it again. A
smaller value in EmulateTwoFingerMinW will accept a narrower touch to
activate scrolling.

3. To make changes permanent, follow the instructions in the attached
file.

[Bug 604180] [NEW] gksu and sudo broken in guest session

2010-07-10 Thread Jeff Epstein
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gksu

sudo and gksudo don't work in guest sessions on Lucid. By "guest
session" I mean in particular the temporary session created and disposed
of on the fly by selecting "Guest session" from the session menu.

First, SUDO
Running sudo from a command prompt within a guest session produces the message:
sudo: Unable to change to sudoers gid: Operation not permitted
My understanding is that this is a result of SELinux configuration. This, then, 
could be understood as security-based design decision, rather than a bug. I am 
using the default SELinux configuration.

Now, GKSUDO
Running a program through gksudo (such as synaptic or most program on the 
System|Administration menu) results in a pause of a few seconds, while the 
system wait cursor spins, followed by nothing. No error message is returned, no 
visible program is run. I expect that I will be prompted for a password or 
notified that I don't have permission to execute this command, but that isn't 
what happens. This is definitely a bug, as the user should be given some kind 
of feedback on his action.

This is probably not the right package to report this bug in. It seems
to be more of an overall security configuration issue. Please provide
suggestions if you think this bug should be sent elsewhere.
Nevertheless, I filed it in this package because I think the most
immediate way to fix this bug is to have gksu give a meaningful error
message if it is unable to run sudo.

[Bug 603680] [NEW] Magnifier screen stays split even after exit

2010-07-09 Thread Jeff Epstein
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-mag

After quitting magnifier, the screen stays split, and mouse behavior is
abnormal. In particular, the apparent visual position of the cursor does
not correspond to where the clicks actually happen.

WHAT I EXPECT TO HAPPEN: When running magnifier, the screen is split
between magnified and non-magnified views. After quitting magnifier, the
screen should be restored to a single non-magnified pane.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS: After quitting magnifier, the screen remains
split. The top pane (or the left pane, in the case of vertical split)
contains only my desktop background. The bottom pane (or right pane, in
the case of vertical split) contains my desktop icons, gnome-panel, and
mouse pointer etc. However, clicking on an icon visible in the bottom
pane has the effect of clicking on what would be in the bottom half of
the screen, if the whole desktop were visible. See enclosed screen shot.

WHY THIS IS BAD: Beyond the fact that magnifier doesn't work when it's
running, it also leaves the system in an unusable state.

WORKAROUND: I can restore the screen to a normal mode by switching video
mode. E.g.: xrandr -s 1; xrandr -x 0

SYSTEM: Tested on Lucid 10.04, but as I recall this problem has existed
at least since Jaunty. I am using nvidia drivers.

[Bug 599452] Re: [pineviewgm] X crash after restore from hibernate

2010-07-08 Thread Jeff Epstein
Sorry, my previous optimistic statement seems to have been a bit
premature. X still crashes (sometimes) when coming out of hibernate. I
apologize.

[Bug 603415] [NEW] Accessibility keybindings don't work

2010-07-08 Thread Jeff Epstein
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

In gnome-keybindings-properties, in the Accessibility section, there are
three entries by default: toggle magnifier, toggle screen reader, and
toggle on-screen keyboard. None of these work, whether or not Assistive
Technologies is currently running and whether or not orca is currently
running.

WHAT I EXPECT TO HAPPEN: I should be able to configure a shortcut to any
of these actions, such as Ctrl-Alt-A to the Toggle magnifier action.
Then, pressing, Ctrl-Alt-A will start the magnifier.

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS: I am able to modify the entry in the gnome-
keybindings-properties window, but pressing the designated key does not
perform any action. That is, the magnifier does not open. Changing the
hotkeys for other actions works okay.

WHY THIS IS BAD: This is confusing and misleading behavior, and can be
especially damaging for people who need the accessibility features.
Ideally, the keybindings should be fixed, but otherwise they should be
removed from the dialog.

This is true under up-to-date Lucid 10.04 tested on several systems.

[Bug 502020] Re: The notes system seems inconsistent

2010-07-08 Thread Jeff Epstein
As I understand it, if you enter notes using the Nautilus side panel,
the note is added to the current folder, not to the currently selected
file. Does that agree with your experience? This is inconsistent UI
design, but is probably not a bug. I agree that the notes and emblems
feature, as they currently exist, are nearly useless, and should be
removed unless (a) they are reimplemented in extended attributes and (b)
are integrated with a desktop search system.

[Bug 112909] Re: Support extended attributes

2010-07-08 Thread Jeff Epstein
As a start, it seems to me that EA-aware mechanisms could be added to
the generic GTK+ file-handling functions. Then all GTK+ apps, including
all GNOME apps, would get that benefit immediately. EAs would be
preserved through most GUI operations, if not through coreutils
operations.

@Gursimran:

No, two-finger scrolling does not require multitouch. That is why there
are two bugs: one for two-finger scroll, one for multitouch. If you'd
like to get two-finger scrolling working without multitouch, you can try
my fix. If you'd like to enable support for multitouch, you should see
the other bug.

Re: [Bug 599452] Re: [pineviewgm] X crash after restore from hibernate

2010-07-06 Thread Jeff Epstein
The kernel 2.6.32-23-generic was recently (a few days ago) pushed on
Lucid on since then I haven't had any crashes, despite my attempts to
reproduce it. The problem seems to be solved with that kernel release,
although it would be nice if someone else could verify it.

I'd be happy to try out Maverick and see if it suffers from a similar
problem. Unfortunately, it won't be so easy, since you can't hibernate
from a LiveCD boot. Is it worthwhile to see if Maverick runs in
low-graphics mode even without hibernating? Also, why does PGTBL_ER:
0x03 worry you? Should I do more testing in relation to that?

2010-07-06 Thread Jeff Epstein
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 308191 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/308191

I disagree that this is a duplicate.

This bug deals with two-finger scrolling, which is easy to fix with a
workaround. The workaround works for me and many other people, on any
synaptics touchpad.

Bug 308191 is different; it is related to support of multitouch, a
particular hardware feature that is not present in all touchpads. That
bug is essentially asking for support for additional hardware, which is
much more complicated than just turning on two-finger scrolling support,
which is already present in the driver.

@Gursimran

You are running the wrong command. The correct command is

gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/scroll_method 2
--type int

Please try it again, reboot, and let me know the result. Also please
include the result of synclient -l

Other than that, this bug has a workaround that I am trying to help

Tried new kernel and xorg as requested. Some unusual new startup

then I haven't been able to produce the crash, but of course I also
don't have hardware acceleration or compiz. Although there's no crash,
I'm including the information you've requested anyway. Please let me

[Bug 599452] [NEW] X crash after restore from hibernate with Intel graphics

2010-06-28 Thread Jeff Epstein
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

Lucid crashes after resume from hibernate. The crash is not immediate,
but usually occurs within five minutes after resume, usually when
starting a program, but I can't identify the specific behavior that
directly triggers the crash (besides hibernation itself). The crash is
100% reproducible. The system is completely stable if I never hibernate.
Resume from suspend to RAM also works perfectly, and the system remains
stable: it is only suspend to disk that triggers the crash.

I'm using an HP Mini 210, which has Intel N10 graphics, using the i915
driver.

There are other, similar bugs involving Intel graphics on Lucid, such as
bug 528467 and bug 554569, but these bugs don't specifically deal with a
crash after hibernate, so I am filing a new bug report. This may be
related to the known X crashes related to KMS documented here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes As suggested at that
address, I enabled and disabled KMS. The crash happens at the same time
in either case, but the symptoms are slightly different: with KMS
enabled, the crash results in the "X is running in low graphics mode"
dialog box; I can easily access virtual terminals, and although X will
not start, the computer remains functional. With KMS disabled, the crash
results in a loop where the screen is turned on and off, virtual
terminals are not accessible, and nothing is displayed.

[Bug 462166] Re: two-finger scrolling doesn't work

2010-06-26 Thread Jeff Epstein
Oddly enough, two-fingered scrolling can be enabled in Gnome from the
command line, but not from the GUI. Run the following command:

gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/peripherals/touchpad/scroll_method 2
--type int

This will enable two-fingered scrolling. The appropriate radio button
will be shown selected in gnome-mouse-properties, but it will still be
disabled.

[Bug 131094] Re: Heavy Disk I/O harms desktop responsiveness

2010-06-23 Thread Jeff Epstein
My understanding of the writeback option is that it greatly decreases
the file system's tolerance for crashes, and could result in the file
system being put in an inconsistent state, with resulting data loss.
This seems a high price to pay, so this is clearly not a good solution.

I would also like to point out that performance degrades even if I am
only doing heavy reads, but not writes. In that case, the writeback
option shouldn't improve performance at all.

Yes, I was under the impression that Mutter can use software GL (Mesa).

I get an error when I try to start Mutter running on an Nvidia card with
open source Nouveau drivers (with glx enabled). I expect this to work,
as Nouveau claims to support 2D acceleration, and in case there is Mesa.
However, I get this message:

[Bug 507504] Re: display freezes, [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... GPU hung

2010-04-30 Thread Jeff Epstein
This is a problem on an HP mini 210-1010nr running i915 driver. My dmesg
contains the "Hangcheck timer elapsed" message as well as the
"i915_do_wait_request returns -5" message. In addition (and this may or
may not be important) I get the message [drm] Big FUFO is enabled"
repeated several times around when the happens.

My report differs from the previous reports, though, in that the screen
does not totally hang. Instead, X restarts into "recovery" mode. Virtual
terminal still work, so I am able to do Ctrl-F1, look at dmesg, etc.
Subsequent attempts to restart X fail.

I didn't have this problem running fully updated Karmic on the same
machine. This started happening with Lucid, which I just installed. It
is pretty much a deal-breaker, and it renders the system unusable.

[Bug 516329] Re: TouchPad buttons don't work on HP Mini 210 (1030NR)

2010-04-23 Thread Jeff Epstein
This bug also applies to the HP Mini 210-1010NR model.

Just to recap my own experience:

Out of the box, the actual "buttons" (which are physically part of the
pad area) don't work. To effectuate a click, one has to tap on the pad.
Right click is very hard, as one has to tap on the lower right corner of
the pad; it usually takes me a few tries. Two-fingered scrolling does
not work, but edge scrolling does.

This is my workaround: I discovered that by applying the following
settings via synclient, I can achieve two-fingered scrolling, and a two-
fingered tap will be interpreted as a right-click. (However, two-
fingered scrolling is still a disabled option in gnome-mouse-mouse-
properties.) This isn't a fix to this bug, but it might help people who
are having trouble.

This command will do it:

synclient TapButton2=3 HorizTwoFingerScroll=1 VertTwoFingerScroll=1
EmulateTwoFingerMinZ=29 EmulateTwoFingerMinW=5

By the way, what is the "correct" way to apply these settings
automatically at start up? Does one have to edit
/usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/* or is there a per-user way of applying these
settings other than invoking synclient in .xinitrc? Any help would be
appreciated.

[Bug 558847] Re: Contact with more than one finger on touchpad produces crazy frenetic cursor

2010-04-08 Thread Jeff Epstein
Marking as invalid. Please ignore; this turned out to be interference
from Windows.

More specifically: the problem was caused by the following sequence of
events: booting into Windows, disabling the touchpad via the above-
described method, and rebooting the system into Ubuntu.

The problem can be fixed by powering down the system.

So, this is probably not a bug, but is very strange behavior
nonetheless.

[Bug 402017] Re: GDM login theme change when using accessibility features

2010-04-08 Thread Jeff Epstein
This still happens under Lucid Beta 2, as well.

I should point out that (on my machine, at least) logging in and then
logging back out, or rebooting the machine, or restarting X, results in
the theme and colors returning to normal. It's not necessary to edit
config files. That is, the unexpected theming is only temporary.
Nevertheless, this is a weird usability bug, and disconcerting to a new
user.

[Bug 558847] [NEW] Contact with more than one finger on touchpad produces crazy frenetic cursor

2010-04-08 Thread Jeff Epstein
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-synaptics

I've just installed Lucid Beta 2 on an HP Mini 1010nr. There is some
unusual behavior involving the Synaptics touchpad. If the user contacts
the touchpad with more than one finger at a time, the cursor will "go
crazy" and bounce around the screen in an uncontrolled way. If you were
dragging an icon at the time, it will probably end up somewhere random.

This is different from the behavior under Karmic running on the same
machine. Under Karmic, if the user accidentally uses more than one
finger, the first finger is ignored. This behavior is pretty standard
for non-multitouch touchpads.

I consider this an important regression. Accidental touches with another
finger are pretty common when using a touchpad, and this bug means that
such touches produces often unpredictable results. The wild dancing of
the cursor is also ugly and obviously wrong to any user, so it produces
a bad impression.

Some other notes that may be important:
I believe that the touchpad on this system is actually multitouch-capable, even 
though Ubuntu treats it as singletouch-only. When running Windows 7 on the same 
machine, two-fingered scrolling is supported, but not under Ubuntu.

Another important difference between Lucid's and Karmic's handling of
the touchpad has to do with a feature that I hadn't seen before. My
touchpad has a small red light in the upper left. When running under
Windows with the OEM's drivers, tapping that area of the touchpad will
temporarily disable the touchpad, and the light will illuminate. Tapping
that area again will re-enable the touchpad. This feature obviously
doesn't work under Ubuntu. Under Karmic, the light that indicates a
disabled touchpad was always off. Under Lucid, however, the light is
always on, even though the touchpad is enabled (and producing the above-
mentioned crazy jumping of the cursor). This suggests to me that there
is some confusion with the driver.

[Bug 131094] Re: Heavy Disk I/O harms desktop responsiveness

2010-03-25 Thread Jeff Epstein
I believe that this problem can be alleviated by using Con Kolivas's BFS
scheduler instead of the stock scheduler. There are PPAs on Launchpad
where you can get kernels with the BFS scheduler for Lucid and Karmic.
On my system, it really seems to make the system much more reponsive. I
hope that the Linux kernel team consider including the BFS scheduler as
an option in future kernel releases, and until then I think the Ubuntu
team should consider making a BFS kernel the default for the desktop
version of Ubuntu.

I'm not opposed to this kind of change, but it should be changable from
the Settings|Appearance panel, which is the natural place for this kind

Therefore, it is not necessary to have simple-ccsm appear as its own
entry in the System|Preferences menu. It should be removed. Its presence
is redundant and can only confuse the user.

In addition, the installation of simple-ccsm should not require that the
(non-simple) ccsm be displayed in System|Preferences. For novice users,
it's best if there is only one visible way to modify the compiz
settings. This can be accomplished either by removing ccsm from the list
