[Bug 1091610] Re: wifi connection loss on Realtek RTL8191SEvA

2013-01-12 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
I have a similar issue here, RTL8191SEvA and 12.04.1 (3.2.0-35-generic)
also on a low power machine (Atom D510).

The issue manifests itself periodically, but it does seem only when
there is moderate network load (MythTV video streaming). It's quite
frequent (we can't get through a half hour show without issues).

Interestingly, I first thought it was my WiFi system (Unifi) as I
purchased both at the same time and it also seems to cause the AP to
struggle for other connected clients as well. I'm now suspecting it is
the linux driver with this chipset after finding this bug.

Here is a thread I started on the Unifi forums:
http://forum.ubnt.com/showthread.php?t=64574

Note that behavior sometimes will go back to normal after 30sec or so,
and sometimes can only be resolved with a reboot.

[Bug 595764] Re: Mouse often hangs after upgrade to 35-2, 35-4 kernels

2010-10-13 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Following up on my #18 post, I can confirm 2.6.34 still works fine after
24+ hours. This supports maor's findings as well.

I don't see /sys/module/drm_kms_helper/parameters at all in 2.6.34... so
was polling added in 2.6.35?

If not that, someone have time to git bisect 2.6.34 and 2.6.35 ?  :)

[Bug 660040] [NEW] vim-rails out of date

[Bug 595764] Re: Mouse often hangs after upgrade to 35-2, 35-4 kernels

2010-10-11 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Hmm, I've tested 4 kernels and the only one that doesn't have this
behavior for me (so far) is vanilla 2.6.34.

2.6.36-rc7+ (vanilla)   -- broken (kslowd renamed to kworker? seems even worse)
2.6.35-22 (Ubuntu)  -- broken
2.6.35 (vanilla)-- broken
2.6.34 (vanilla) -- works? (so far)

So unless something was fixed in -rc5, and broken again by -rc7+
(85a3318), might I be seeing a different bug? Also, it seems
intermittent, so I am not 100% convinced even 2.6.34 works at this
point.

Using a ThinkPad T400 type 6474 in 32-bit mode (w/i915 graphics).

[Bug 537907] Re: GCONF_SCHEMA_FILE_DIR incorrect in gconf-2.m4

2010-03-12 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Actually, since the m4 macro will be included in aclocal.m4 (or the
like) in developers distributing source tarballs from Ubuntu, this is
pretty ugly... as the default is probably correct for other distros
(/etc/gconf/schemas vs /usr/share/gconf/schemas). So, I'm not sure what
the fix is... perhaps some m4 logic to detect the correct location?

Seems a shame to have to always pass --with-gconf-schema-file-
dir=/usr/share/gconf/schemas when compiling on Ubuntu.

[Bug 537907] [NEW] GCONF_SCHEMA_FILE_DIR incorrect in gconf-2.m4

2010-03-11 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gconf

Ubuntu 9.10

libgconf2-dev:
  Installed: 2.28.0-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 2.28.0-0ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 2.28.0-0ubuntu2 0
500 http://samaritan.ucmerced.edu karmic/main Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The default GCONF_SCHEMA_FILE_DIR in /usr/share/aclocal/gconf-2.m4
points to '$(sysconfdir)/gconf/schemas'. This ends up becoming something
like /usr/etc/gconf/schemas and is incorrect. It seems this should be
set to /usr/share/gconf/schemas instead.

Suggested patch attached.

[Bug 440411] Re: spam of change events from drm/card0

2010-03-02 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Mikko -- you are correct, very embarrassing :( It didn't end up working
anyway, but I'm not convinced i'm using the new modules I'm compiling--
perhaps they are loaded from initrd? I wasn't making a new one each
time. I've added a unique MODULE_VERSION this time to be double sure (is
there another way to tell?).

The patch you reference seems to be the same one Lars said worked way
back in comment #12. It didn't work for me back then, but i wasn't
generating a new initrd then either. Slavius in #14 did, and it seemed
to mostly work for him.

Anyway, I've attempted to re-adopt
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23183 for karmic 2.6.31-20.
Assuming my T400 isn't using one of the broken BIOSes, it should work
eh?

Will post results and adopted patch if it indeed does work.

2010-03-02 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
I've collected the following patches together and managed to apply them
to ubuntu-karmic.git. Fair warning: I'm not a expert in this area so I
didn't do any sanity checking beyond a clean make...

* drm/i915: parse child device from VBT
* drm/i915: Don't set up DP ports that aren't in the BIOS device table.
* drm/i915: Don't set up HDMI ports that aren't in the BIOS device table
* drm/i915: only enable hotplug for detected outputs

Compiled against 2.6.31-20-generic-pae using:
make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=$(pwd) modules

Seems to work... udev is quiet, and xrandr no longer includes non-
existent devices. Second monitor still works as well.

However, this may break things for some folks as suggested in
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22785.

After 2 days of testing, this patch seems to fix the issue for me. No
more spam of change event messages in udev, and udev cpu usage is back
to normal.

Note, it's unclear to me how the patch would effect folks using, say,
HDMI outputs with this chip. Someone who has such hardware needs should
test.

[Bug 291760] Re: network-manager roams to (none) ((none)) - background scanning

2009-08-27 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
FWIW, several months ago I got fed up and hacked around this by just
commenting out a key schedule_scan call in NetworkManager. I no
longer have the problem, but I have to manually sudo iwlist ath0 scan
on boot or when roaming to another location for NetworkManager to see
any [new] networks.

Makes one want to implement a dbus call (?) for a Scan Network menu
click in nm-applet. I'm not sure what this means as for doing a _real_
fix, but I'll take my Tylenol to mask the headache for now.

--
Again, doing sudo iwlist ath0 scan makes my system exhibit the *same* 
symptoms as when roamed to (none) ((none)) use to pop up (try it yourself), 
so I have to believe the root problem is really with the driver and/or common 
linux wireless stack. Also, I don't recall having this problem with the old 
ath_pci driver, just this new ath5k one. Also, wicd does not appear to do any 
periodic scanning, thus does not exhibit the nasty behavior.

[Bug 291760] Re: network-manager roams to (none) ((none)) - background scanning

2009-07-12 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Got tired of the limitations of wicd and decided to dig deeper... here
is what I found:

So this is happening because NM tells wpa_supplicant to do periodic
background scanning (which apparently, wicd does not do). With ath5k and
AR5212 (at least), the scan is very intrusive, changes frequencies from
2.4Ghz and 5Ghz etc... this causes all traffic to stop until it's done.

Running wpa_supplicant in debug mode, and also watching iwconfig output,
gives some insight...

pings normal

Jul 12 20:57:58 bluetote wpa_supplicant[11018]: Setting scan request: 0 sec 0 
usec

SSID)
Jul 12 20:57:59 bluetote wpa_supplicant[11018]: Scan requested (ret=0) - scan 
timeout 30 seconds

no pings here while scan is in progress, iwconfig shows interface
hopping frequencies

oops, nm is confused now... still scanning and no pings

periodic_update(): Roamed from BSSID (none) ((none)) to 00:1E:E5:2D:5A:99 
(leslielady) 

done, pings resume

To solidify the point, I can duplicate this traffic pause behavior by
doing a sudo iwlist ath0 scan.

So... it seems this may be a bug within the atk5k driver and/or
wpa_supplicant with this hardware. The roams to (none) etc is just a
side effect...

I don't readily see a way to fix the ath5k driver into the 2.4GHz range
(ex like iwpriv ath0 mode 11b with madwifi), which I suspect may help.
Anyone here have insight into ath5k's background scanning limitations?

Based on dhd's comment, I also have switched to wicd and this has indeed
resolved the problem.

  sudo apt-get install wicd   (replaces network manager)

Then just start wicd-client. It sits in your tray; the interface is a
bit finicky, but it works.

I found this bug (and a fix) in the kernel bugzilla, but the kernel version is

[Bug 367645] [NEW] GetFilesystemInfos, TotalKB: -1 should be handled by AutoExpirer

2009-04-26 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mythtv

Description:Ubuntu 8.04.2
Release:8.04

mythtv-backend:
  Installed: 0.21.0+fixes18207-0ubuntu4~hardy1

 0.21.0+fixes16838-0ubuntu3 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/multiverse Packages

Problems with GetFilesystemInfos will return -1 for TotalKB an UsedKB,
which is obviously an error condition. However, the AutoExpirer will
happily delete all your recordings, since FreeKB is also 0.

--- GetFilesystemInfos directory list start ---
Dir: pacifico:/var/lib/mythtv/recordings
 Location: Local
 Drive ID: 1
 TotalKB : -1
 UsedKB  : -1
 FreeKB  : 0

--- GetFilesystemInfos directory list end ---

Two issues:
1) Root cause of GetFilesystemInfos failing
2) AutoExpirer not handling this error case from GetFilesystemInfos correctly.

Linking in http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/6503, as a safety net fix
has been committed (http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/20452) to fix
issue #2. The root case is being investigated, follow

Ok, I tried to follow the KernelTeamBugPolicies reporting instructions

least for hardy LTS, apport-collect doesn't seem to exist.

If Ubuntu is serious about LTS releases, this bug needs to be fixed.

[Bug 236799] Re: autofs-ldap should use /etc/ldap.conf instead of /etc/ldap/ldap.conf

2009-03-30 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
/etc/ldap.conf is for nss_ldap and pam_ldap only

/etc/ldap/ldap.conf (or /etc/openldap/ldap.conf on Red Hat) is from the
OpenLDAP libs, and is what will be used by default in programs that use
libldap.

See: man 5 ldap.conf

[Bug 262152] Re: brings up both wired and wireless interfaces; hard to pick just one through the UI

2009-02-04 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Yes, and in some cases it's the policy of the network administrator to
strictly forbid connecting to both wired and wireless in the same
building. If they are different subnets, you have the potential to act
as a network bridge (yes I know this takes effort, but the potential is
still there). We had several cases of folks getting their MAC's quickly
banned when a dual connection was detected.

I understand the NM dev's position on the auto connect; that behavior
was probably a major chunk of work (and is great!). However, we now have
this regression. A quick solution would be to add an option to each
connection to say something like disable this connection when another
is active; then tick it for your wireless connection(s). Or, the
reverse might make more sense: disconnect all other connections when
this is active, and tick it for wired. A more complete solution would
be to have pools of connections, or locations, and add whatever
connections you'd like active in the pool. Then, you connect to
pools/locations instead of individual connections. Bonus, a hook could
be provided to execute custom scripts on activation of each
pool/location.

Maybe someone with time (i wish that was me) can patch NM, then Ubuntu
might accept it and we can close this bug.

[Bug 320700] [NEW] gvim rendering is slow

2009-01-23 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vim

Rendering in gvim is very slow compared to previous Ubuntu releases.
It's usable, but takes patience. I'm using vim/gvim 7.1.314-3ubuntu3.1
on Ubuntu 8.10.

Others have reported this same issue on a thread from the vim mailing list. 
Many solutions have been tried w/o success:
http://groups.google.com/group/vim_use/browse_thread/thread/dd1d8d9a799adf4a

From the thread, someone provided this benchmark script:
-- -- --
 Benchmark vim's redrawing speed
let i = 0
while i  2000
  1
  redraw
  $
  redraw
  let i = i + 1
endwhile
qa!
-- -- --

I've run it with /etc/init.d/README as an input file (just to pick
something consistent across Ubuntu machines):

$ time vim -u NONE -U NONE  -S test-redraw-speed.vim /etc/init.d/README 
real0m5.407s
user0m0.568s
sys 0m0.048s

$ time gvim -u NONE -U NONE -f -S test-redraw-speed.vim /etc/init.d/README 
real3m27.614s
user0m11.685s
sys 0m0.312s

As you can see gvim is almost 40x slower then vim (running in gnome-
terminal). You'd expect gvim to be slower then vim, but not by this
much. Note, from the thread, not all users experience this huge
difference. Some only report 2-3x slowdown, which I'd be very happy with
at this point :)

I'm using the radeon X11 driver (open source) on a ThinkPad T42p, and do
_not_ experience slow rendering in other apps (for example, gedit).

[Bug 90925] Re: hardware brightness keys on lenovo R60e are working strange in gnome

2008-12-09 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
I have the same problem with a Lenovo Ideapad Y530.

Looking at ACPI, /etc/acpi/events/video_brightnessup and
/etc/acpi/events/video_brightnessdown are matched, and the appropriate
scripts are called. Even replacing these scripts with exit you have
the same behavior. So it seems the hardware(?) or the xserver(?) is
actually trying to control the brightness.

On this computer, /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCDD/brightness shows:
levels:  90 80 69 59 49 40 35 27 20 9 1
current: 59

Testing, only those exact values work for the brightness, and they do
work fine from the /proc interface.

Some folks resolve this by setting 4 and 5 to /proc/acpi/ibm/cmos upon
brightnessup and down, respectively. However, /proc/acpi/ibm doesn't
exist, and thinkpad_acpi won't load on an Ideapad.

For those using a Lenovo Thinkpad, see this:
http://vntutor.blogspot.com/2007/12/brightness-buttons-in-lenovo-thinkpad.html

[Bug 90925] Re: hardware brightness keys on lenovo R60e are working strange in gnome

2008-12-09 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
More information...

With the acpi video module unloaded, the brightness up/down hardware
keys do nothing. And no ACPI events are generated. So this narrows it
down to ACPI events.

With it loaded, when the buttons are pressed, acpid notifies both the X
server and hald-addon-acpi that the buttons were pressed. Killing hald-
addon-acpi does not modify the behavior. Thus, it's gotta be the X
server itself getting it backwards.

So I think some solutions might be:

1) Tell acpid not to notify the X server for these events, and control
it with video_brightnessup.sh and video_brightnessdown.sh via /proc
instead.

2) Find out where in the X server the brightness is being set, and fix
it for Lenovo(?) models.

This Ideapad Y530 has a Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) video card, and X is using the
intel module. Using Ubuntu 8.10.

[Bug 207744] Re: Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops

2008-11-07 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Removing the patch to metacity (see above) works only if you are not
using compiz. The same annoying behavior now effects compiz (intrepid).
I really don't understand the logic here. We have a blinking
notification saying click here! click me! so you do, and seemingly
nothing happens. For tomboy, you click the always present tomboy icon,
select a note, and expect it to appear, always, period. This is enough
to make newbies think Linux is totally broken and go back to Windows.

Agree it's the job is the WM, not Tomboy.

FYI - Ubuntu folks added a behavior change patch restricting window
desktop warping in metacity. So if you are not running compiz, check out
how to reverse it here:

If you are running compiz, maybe someone could respond on how metacity

[Bug 205895] Re: [Hardy] Wine 100% cpu usage

2008-05-21 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
For me, it only seems to happen when SSL is used... aka when going to an
https site or looking at the list of Certificates. If I avoid SSL, then
CPU stays low. But once the CPU goes up, it stays up, and I have to
eventually kill wineserver etc.

I am using Hardy wine (0.9.59-0ubuntu5) and ies4linux-2.99.0.1.

[Bug 207744] Re: Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops

2008-05-20 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Similar here...

Now, in hardy, clicking on the icon doesn't move pidgin to the current
desktop nor does it switch to the desktop pidgin is on (as the previous
poster noted). Same for buddy list or flashing icon to show chat window.

So, to find a new message in an existing chat window, I now have to
manually switch to the desktop the chat window is on; same for the buddy
list. Quite annoying and frustrating :(

Seems to be a side effect of an Ubuntu added patch to metacity:
011_gnome_482354_attachment_104591.patch ... see:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482354#c46

Also, this got filtered to Pidgin's own tickets, in a bit of a heated argument:
http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/5521

IMHO, the patch was a mistake, but not everyone will agree :)

To recompile metacity w/o the patch:
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential devscripts fakeroot
$ sudo apt-get build-dep metacity
$ apt-get source metacity
$ cd metacity-2.*/debian/patches
$ rm 011_gnome_482354_attachment_104591.patch
$ cd ../..
$ debchange --nmu remove 011_gnome_482354_attachment_104591.patch
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc -rfakeroot
$ cd ..
$ sudo dpkg -i metacity*.deb

Restart GNOME, and volla, pidgin window focusing and workspace switching
works again.

[Bug 207744] Re: Clicking notification panel icon doesn't switch desktops

2008-05-20 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Another option is to patch Pidgin to hack around the changes made to
metacity... Pidgin bug 5521, above, has an example patch on how to do
this with the Buddy List (assume a similar patch is needed for the chat
window).

I think if Ubuntu keeps the metacity patch intact, it should then patch
Pidgin to avoid this regression.

[Bug 176465] unable to save, too many open files

2007-12-14 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gedit

I am using gedit 2.20.3 in Gutsy.

After leaving gedit open for several days, and opening/closing dozens of
files, gedit will refuse to save anything with:

 There are too many open files. Please close some applications and try again.

lsof will report gedit has over 1200+ files open, mostly with deleted tmp files:

[Bug 137873] Re: tracker-search-tool reports no result

2007-10-22 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Ok, restricting trackerd to a small subset of my home directory allowed
the --reindex to finish just fine. I was also then able to search.

Next I updated tracker to svn, and opened it up to my whole home
directory again, and ran --reindex. Woke up this morning to a hung
trackerd...

  $ tracker-status 
  tracker-status: internal tracker error: Did not receive a reply. Possible 
causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus 
security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network 
connection was broken.

  $ ps -lC trackerd
  F S   UID   PID  PPID  C PRI  NI ADDR SZ WCHAN  TTY  TIME CMD
  0 S  1000 13113 21589  2  94  19 - 12982 -  pts/400:23:26 trackerd

Looks like it indexed quite a bit before it hung though, last status
report and index entry in the log:

 Current memory usage is 30460, word count 92908 and hits 580117
 indexing #89100 - /home/kreucher/nick/house-notes.odt

And last message in the log was file changes to [...] is pausing
tracker. Sending a SIGTERM to trackerd yields no response :(

I don't want to clutter up this bug... shall I take this to a mailing
list / or another bug instead?

[Bug 155994] ooffice hangs when opening xls/ppt files

2007-10-22 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org2

After upgrading to gutsy, OpenOffice 2.3 hangs when opening MS Office
xls or ppt files.

The same files were opening (and saving) fine with feisty's OpenOffice
2.2. Note, even files I created with feisty's OpenOffice 2.2 and simply
saved as xls or ppt are failing to open now.

When running ooffice from a terminal, a crash dump appears. I will
attach this (500+ lines).

[Bug 137873] Re: tracker-search-tool reports no result

2007-10-21 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Results so far... after several hours, but apparently before it was done
indexing, trackerd exit'd with this error:

  ERROR: excessive busy count in query GetServiceID and thread main.

Running tracker-status appears to have started trackerd back up again:

  $ tracker-status 
  Tracker daemon's status is Indexing.

  $ ps -lC trackerd
   F S   UID   PID  PPID  C PRI  NI ADDR SZ WCHAN  TTY  TIME CMD
  0 S  1000 21348 1  5  94  19 -  8075 -  ?00:00:48 trackerd

It indexed for about 2min, and now there isn't any activity. Log says:
file changes to /home/kreucher/nick/ipod_sync/temp.log is pausing
tracker. However, this file doesn't exist and lsof reports no open files
in that directory or it's parent at all. So not sure why the indexer is
paused. tracker-status says status is Indexing.

Still unable to get any results from tracker-search :( Log always
reports search returned no results

Hmm, after waiting a few minutes (wanted to see if it would start to
index again), it appears something additionally is wrong: trackerd
process is still running, but tracker-search just times out:

  $ tracker-search nick
  tracker-search: internal tracker error: Did not receive a reply. Possible 
causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus 
security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network 
connection was broken.

And tracker-status returns garbage:

  $ tracker-status
  Tracker daemon's status is �Ë.

Any ideas?

I also have this problem. I upgraded to 7.10 and Tracker worked great--
for about a day. Now it returns no results. Also seems to have tons
indexed.

I will run trackerd --reindex to see if it fixes the problem, and will
report back. Note that SIGTERM did not kill trackerd (I waited several
minutes). It caught the signal, but never exited:

20 Oct 2007, 11:03:24:908 - Received signal 'Terminated' so now shutting down
20 Oct 2007, 11:03:24:908 - Total allocations = 9376, total deallocations = 9348

So I kill -9'ed it.

[Bug 37004] Re: Wireless USB keyboard/mouse not working

2007-05-01 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
I am having the same problem with a Targus Wireless USB mouse (PAWM004).
The thumb dongle seems to handle a keyboard also, as indicated by the
kernel. However, the mouse doesn't work at all; cat /dev/input/mice
shows nothing when I move it around or click. Other USB wireless mice
work fine, it's only this one that seems to have the dual keyboard/mouse
receiving functionality.

A fix for 2.6.10 can be found here, however the patch does not apply
correctly to 2.6.20... Also, this may be specific to the Targus mouse,
but may provide insight on other similar devices.

[Bug 43150] steps to patch and fix

2006-09-15 Thread Nicholas J Kreucher
Personally I don't care if it uses gcl or cmucl, I just want it to work
:)

So, here are the steps to rebuild maxina w/Olaf's cmucl patch. Thanks
Olaf!

$ cd /tmp
$ apt-get source maxima
$ sudo apt-get build-dep maxima
$ sudo apt-get cmucl
$ cd maxima_5.9.2
$ curl http://leidola.newcon.de/daten/maxima-cmucl.patch | patch -p1
$ debuild -us -uc -b
$ dpkg -i ../maxima_5.9.2-2ubuntu1_i386.deb

Start up wxmaxima and test... should work now.

Hope this helps some newbies!
