[Bug 384931] Re: nautilus crashes when attempting to display a corrupted icon

2010-12-07 Thread ManfredBremen
I can confirm the bug on Ubuntu 10.04 (amd64). I attach the WMF file in a zip 
archive. If you open a folder that contains that WMF file with Natutilus, 
Natulis will crash. Besides, one cannot attach the WMF file via Firefox because 
apparently the file selection dialog is based on Nautilus or a library shared 
with Nautilus.
The WMF file has been created with OpenOffice-Draw 3.2 from a figure copied 
from a PowerPoint file.

I think this bug can go out. The work-arounds work OK and the notebook
is now pretty outdated. I still have it somewhere but will not upgrade
it to newer versions.

[Bug 330576] Re: 'infinity' symbol from displayed as 'o' instead 'oo'; Acrobat works correctly

2009-02-18 Thread ManfredBremen
Dimitrio,

many thanks for the tips. I already had gsfonts-x11 installed. So that does not 
appear to be the problem.
When I call 
  fc-match Symbol
I get 
  symbol.ttf: Symbol Regular

So that is different from your installation. I once installed
msttcorefonts but that should not include Symbol if Synaptic is
reporting correctly.

I found a similar bug at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fontconfig/+bug/37745

So, if symbol.ttf is not shipped as standard by Ubuntu, then the error
could be in my side (user configuration).

What puzzles me a bit is the fact that Acrobat Reader on my Ubuntu
machine displays the pdf file correctly. Maybe, Acrobat has its own
fonts.

Anyway: many thanks for the help.

Manfred

2009-02-18 Thread ManfredBremen
Addition:

I located symbol.ttf on my system at
   /usr/share/fonts/truetype/

I do not know which package actually installed it. I renamed it to
symbol.ttf.off and afterwards the infinity symbol shows up correctly.
Both with evince and with Acrobat reader.

So: Not an evince bug but a user configuration problem. Bug can be
rejected.

[Bug 330576] [NEW] 'infinity' symbol from displayed as 'o' instead 'oo'; Acrobat works correctly

2009-02-17 Thread ManfredBremen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: evince

The infinity symbol from the font SYMBOL is displayed incorrectly with
Evince. Adobe Acrobat correctly displays the symbol. I produced the
attached file with  Ubuntu 8.10 64bit+OpenOffice 3.01 using the Export-
PDF function of OpenOffice.

Evince displays the infinity symbol like a small 'o'.

I guess the bug is rooted in Evince, not in OpenOffice.

Hi Marten,

that is a good strategy.

Good luck! Manfred

 Hi Manfred,

 Thank you for the suggestion.

 The problem is that the installation hangs for me as well, so I have no way
 of installing, thus no way of moving files. But I will try it if I ever
 mange to install it...

 I'm thinking of installing some really old version like 6.x and upgrading
 until it breaks.But it is a really annoying issue. Windows installs without
 any problems so it must be the combination of kernel and hardware.

 Regards,
 MÃ¥rten

[Bug 89892] Re: Omnibook 6100 turns off or freezes during boot up

2008-09-17 Thread ManfredBremen
 Leann,

I just tested the live CD Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 (Intel x86) on
my HP Omnibook 6100. The boot process works fine for about 1 minute.
Then, the machine shuts down without further warning. It is just the
same behavior as with earlier versions of Ubuntu.

As pointed out by other contributions, the bug is most likely on the
hardware/BIOS side of the Omnibook 6100.

It would be great if that bug would be circumvented by Ubuntu. BUT: this
is not really necessary since there are workarounds (disabling intel-
rng.ko). Moreover, updating the BIOS obviously solved the problem as
well.

Kind greetings: Manfred

Leann,

I am running Ubuntu 7.10 on the Omnibook 7100. I am not planning to

Live CD when it becomes available.

 There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

 1)  If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux-
 image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and
 test.

 --or--

 2)  The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer
 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel.  Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4.
 Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced.
 You should then be able to test via a LiveCD.

 Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the
 bug reported here or if the issue remains.  More importantly, please
 open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the
 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'.  Also, please
 specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26
 kernel.  Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.

[Bug 25931] Re: Failed to initalize HAL.

2008-05-14 Thread ManfredBremen
I had the similar problem. The problem appeared after I had upgraded
from Ubuntu 7.10 to Ubuntu 8.04 (64bit, Intel Core-Duo) via the update
manager. The system worked more or less fine for a couple of weeks. One
of the glitches was that it took a 10-20 seconds after login to
recognize the network connection.

The problem became serious after I ha inserted a data DVD in the DVD
drive. The DVD drive on my machine (Dell Optiplex 745) never worked
correctly under Ubuntu 7.10. I had to change the BIOS setting at every
fresh bootup of Ubuntu to be able to open it and insert a CD/DVD. This
is probably an issue of Dell, not of Ubuntu. However, after having
inserted the data DVD, it first displayed the contents. At a 2nd trial,
it refused to display anything. Only the DVD was spinning for a few
seconds. That was the point of time after which I could not boot without
the message 'Failed to initialize HAL'. The problems spread over the
days to other functions such as access to USB memory sticks. Later, I
was no longer able to shutdown (system froze after pressing the power-
off icon on the upper right corner of the Gnome display). Fiinally, I
was no able to start Gnome (gdm). Only the recovery mode saved me from
loosing the PC.

The problem vanished after executing

   sudo mv /etc/rc.d/13gdm /etc/rc.d/30gdm

as advised above.

This is not the same bug! The bug discussed here only occurs with
certain version of Linux, not with Windows XP. So, you should perhaps
try to find a forum specializing on Windows XP-problems.

2007-10-30 Thread ManfredBremen
If you cannot boot the live cd (even when trying multiple times), I have
no idea how to solve the problem. Maybe, it could be possible to make a
copy of the live CD with the file intel-rng.ko removed from it? My
Omnibook 6100 was so grateful to boot every 4th times or so. I upgraded
from Ubuntu 6.06 via the 'update'  utility, not via installing from the
CD.

[Bug 89892] Re: Omnibook 6100 turns off or freezes during boot up

2007-08-23 Thread ManfredBremen
Boot your system from harddisk (safe mode). Then, open a shell window 
('terminal') after booting. The terminal can be started via the pull-down menu 
Accessoires. Click on the Ubunutu logo on the upper left corner to do so.
Then enter the command

   ls /lib/modules

It should display among others something like kernel 2.6.20-16-generic.

Then execute

  cd 
/lib/modules/2.6.22-9-generic/2.6.22-9-generic/kernel/drivers/char/hw_random/
  sudo mv intel-rng.ko intel-rng.ko.off

This shall rename the filename and thus makes it invisible to the boot process.
You will have to enter your password for the command.

CAUTION: Whether this workaround works for your setup is not at all
guaranteed! The bug was reported for HP Omnibook 6100. Hence, your boot
problem might have a totally different root cause!!!

If you cannot boot from your hard disk, then I am unsure how you can
repair the Feisty installation. If the system boots from the LIVE-CD,
you might be able to access the harddisk. That's a different story.

2007-08-20 Thread ManfredBremen
I confirm the workaround by Jeffrey for Feisty (kernel 2.6.20-16-generic). My 
laptop is a HP Omnibook 6100.
By moving the file intel-rng.ko to some other directory invisible to the 
bootup, my laptop now boots smoothly. I tried 4 times without problems.

I wonder whether removing the file is harmful in some other way. I hope
not :-)

Thanks for positing the workaround!

2007-04-27 Thread ManfredBremen
I can also confirm the very same problem with sudden power shutdown
while booting Ubuntu 7.04 on a HP Omnibook 6100. Previous version Dapper
and Edgy were just fine. The notebook also boots fine under Windows XP
(though it sometimes crashes under Windows but that is not a hardware
problem but a problem of this Windows system :-)

I also noticed that th boot process under 7.04 is much slower. Before it
starts actually accessing the harddisk, the boot process is apparently
running idle or waiting.

The sudden power down occurs with a likelihood of approx. 75%. So, 1 out
of 4 boot attempts are successful.
