[Bug 1463598] Re: Chromium 43 fails to use hardware acceleration

2015-11-09 Thread Ramchandra Apte
I have the same problem as teo1978. GIFs and HD video consume a lot of
video and the latter stutters at times, even with "Override Software
Acceleration List" enabled.

As a workaround, the following PPA has accelerated video decode support
and other features.

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

2014-04-05 Thread Ramchandra Apte
Me too. I was shocked to see it fail in a final version through USB
install, which is nowadays one of the most popular installation options.

 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.

 Bug description:
   Please note that removing /usr/lib/ubiquity/apt-
   setup/generators/40cdrom from your system may cause the installer to
   crash at a later stage.

   Original report follows:

   Binary package hint: ubiquity

   Description of problem:
   When trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 from USB, ubiquity crashes with this
 message: An attempt to configure apt to install additional packages from
 the CD failed.

   Root of problem:
   The problem is that the file structure on the usb differs to what is on
 a livecd and apt-setup is unaware of this.

   WORKAROUND:

   There appear to be two alternatives:

   a) Remove the script that causes the error, when installing from a Live
 setup (Try Ubuntu):
  sudo rm /usr/lib/ubiquity/apt-setup/generators/40cdrom

   b) Create the files as they are expected:

  To resolve this, simply copy the contents of filesystem.squashfs on
   the iso into the usb stick. Luckily the parts it is reading from this
   appear to be just apt config files so the fact that you lose symbolic
   links or permissions on a FAT32 usb stick shouldn't matter.

  On your current Linux installation: (If you don't have one you could
 use a live cd off a different usb stick)
  1. Create USB stick.
  2. Type in a terminal:
  sudo mkdir iso
  sudo mkdir source
  sudo mount -o loop pathtoiso/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-amd64.iso iso
  sudo mount -t squashfs -o loop iso/casper/filesystem.squashfs source
  sudo cp -pLr source/* pathtomountedusbstick

  (Thanks Klaas Hartmann for the workaround :))

  Such devices have already pretty much taken over here in the Uk.

 Of course mobile devices are all around also here in Austria, but:
 Mobile devices are an addon - they help on the go and they are good
 for consuming IT content, but they are bad when it comes to
 production like Programming, Document Writing, Foto Editing, Desktop
 Publishing, Design, CAD, ...

 This is why I do give nothing on those news headliner telling that the
 PC era is over.
 Of course: A lot of people do use a computer (approx guess) 80 %
 internet surving or watching video, 10 % email reading and 10 % email
 writing. - Those are perfectly service with a large enough tablet.
 Anyway I do not know any tablet or smartphone user not having also a
 laptop or PC at home.

 BTW: I consider PC and laptop as both being relevant for this bug #1.

 Hi :)
 There might be proprietary software in the Software Centre but that is
 like saying you can't walk into a high-street shop if you have no intention
 of buying anything.

 Of course you can still buy and sell Cds or Dvds with Ubuntu on and of
 course you can still sell support services either by the hour or as
 structured support for for a given length of time or whatever.  Selling
 the Cds/Dvds has always  been a bit of a moral grey area = it's allowed
 by the GPL but people sometimes tend to feel it's wrong somehow.
 Selling support is fine and puts you in an open competitive  market with
 plenty of fair competition that people could look-up online.

 Regards from
 Tom :)

 Bug description:
   Microsoft has a majority market share in the new desktop PC
   marketplace. This is a bug which Ubuntu and other projects are meant
   to fix. As the philosophy of the Ubuntu Project states, Our work is
   driven by a belief that software should be free and accessible to
   all.

   Ubuntu software is free. Always was, always will be. Free software
 gives everyone the freedom to use it however they want and share with
 whoever they like. This freedom has huge benefits. At one end of the
 spectrum it enables the Ubuntu community to grow and share its collective
 experience and expertise to continually improve all things Ubuntu. At the
 other, we are able to give access to essential software for those who
 couldn’t otherwise afford it – an advantage that’s keenly felt by
 individuals and organisations all over the world.
* http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/our-philosophy

   Non-free software leaves users at the mercy of the software owner and
   concentrates control over the technology which powers our society into
   the hands of a few. Additionally, proprietary software stifles
   innovation, maintains artificial scarcities, and enables malicious
   anti-features such as DRM, surveillance, and other monopolistic
   practices.

   This bug is widely evident in the PC industry.

   Steps to repeat:

   1. Visit a local PC store.
   2. Attempt to buy a machine without any proprietary software.

   What happens:

   Almost always, a majority of PCs for sale have Microsoft Windows pre-
   installed. In the rare cases that they come with a GNU/Linux operating
   system or no operating system at all, the drivers and BIOS may be
   proprietary.

   What should happen:

   A majority of the PCs for sale should include only free software.
