[Bug 519142] Re: CPU scaling not working correctly, ThinkPad T43, Ubuntu 9.10
I can confirm this bug as well, I'm running Karmic Koala with 2.6.31-19-generic on a Lenovo X61T vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 15 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU L7500 @ 1.60GHz My system config is 8 GB RAM and P256 SSD disk, noswap (OK, added a 0.5 GB RAM-swap...) I had noticed that the machine had been very slow lately, occasionally due to the lockup bug which locks the machine for a half or up to a minute occasionally which seems to be present in 2.6.31 as well, it seems to get better though when I stopped running Chrome which seems to be a memory hog. Also there seem to be problem with the disk cache which doesn't seem to be tunable. I definitely don't want it to use all my memory for disk cache. Anyway, now I tested the ondemand cpu scaling, and it doesn't work. As sotirovlyu also commented I've see it go up to 1.6 GHz now and then so I haven't thought about it, but now I've seen that this is not at all load related. OK, for my own as I'm always running the machine on external battery, or power adapter, so the compuer doesn't really know when to switch, this doesn't bother me much as I now added another CPU applet to the panel. Then I can scale each core up down, but it seems as GNOME has treated the interface for this in a strange way. Of course I don't want any authentification question now and then when changing, according this picture http://i.imgur.com/OKQtq.png I found a command which I believed was what GNOME uses /usr/bin/cpufreq-selector and first added the %admin group to the sudoers file, didn't help. Then I added my own id, didn't help then I found that the applet uses a separate configuration file /etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.gnome.CPUFreqSelector.conf and first changed user=root to group=admin but the stupid thing then was that I didn't get the frequency selector menu any more. Then I added user=orre to the config file, and then got the frequency menu back, but now I still got that annoying authority question. I finally though I found a working solution, sudo cpufreq-selector -c 0 -f 80 but that command is hanging, but now I finally have a working solution, I made a little sudo script that can update the scaling like this echo /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed 120 echo /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed 80 Now I intended to add this to /etc/acpi/events/battery but that script is not called upon when I unplug the power. Shouldn't it? and there is no possibility to run a script from the Power Management Preferences. but I found a flag /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/AC/state I can write a cron script polling, to supervise my battery status. I have the feeling that things are starting to get unnecessary complicated. That works fine, and I'm pleased, but it seems as a lot of things could improve here... So, it seems to be several things not working apart from the ondemand scaling: * the command cpufreq-selector is hanging * the frequency selection applet doesn't care about /etc/sudoers * the /etc/acpi/events/ac is not called upon correctly * the /etc/acpi/events/battery is not called upon correctly -- CPU scaling not working correctly, ThinkPad T43, Ubuntu 9.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/519142 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

I'm running 2.6.24-21 (hardy heron and gnome) and I have a lot of trouble with the brightness on my Lenovo X61 T. The most annoying is that each time the screen saver is activated I have to manually increase the brightness. If I do e.g. xset dpms force off and after that the screen light is half. I often turn the screensaver off to avoid this (the dim option is disabled in gnome power settings). It is also very annoying with many video players. As soon as I'm playing a video with e.g. vlc the backlight goes down to half. I have had the same problem with mplayer, but that seem to be resolved. xine is OK but gxine changes to half bright when going to full screen. Further on I have no idea how to change the brightness with software, like having a cron script forcing the brightness up every 10 seconds... Those /sys/class/backlight/ and/sys/devices/virtual/backlight/ have no effect whatsoever. If I change the backlight, those doesn't change. If I try to write to them, the backlight doesn't change.

Re: [Bug 184964] Re: Firefox API buggy, can cause crash in Firefox
I think my original report has been misunderstood. First, I can not tell plugin causes crashes, and it is not easily reproducible. Sometimes firefox runs up to a week, frequenly used, sometimes I have to restart it several times a day. Usually it crashes when I'm not using it. A reasonable way to repeat this, could be to take some plugin, modify it to e.g. address a nul pointer, so the plugin fails to 100 %. If the API is working OK, firefox should let the faulty plugin die, but not get affected in any other way. The firefox I'm running most of the time is currently 1.5.0.13pre (dapper LTS). There may be other errors in firefox causing it to crash, to get rid of the possibility to crash on failing plugins is a first step towards a stable browser.

[Bug 184964] Firefox API buggy, can cause crash in Firefox
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox There seem to be a design flaw in the plugin API used by firefox (and several other browers) as a plugin can cause firefox (konqueror and other browsers using the same API as well) to crash. I can't provide a reliable example on this, but crashes happen too often when different types of plugins are used. The only reason I can see for this behaviour is that the API is buggy, if it allows for crashes. When a browser plugin dies of bad design, the browser should get a notice about this, but definitely not crash.

But, the bottom line is that it wasn't Windows that messed up. Ubuntu just doesn't know how to handle things when Windows is installed prior to Ubuntu. Things are working well now.

About the actual bug, I start suspect that it could be a problem with the bios on the actual M2N8-VMX motherboard where I experienced the hanging problem. After a kernel rebuild (to 2.6.20) the machine refused to boot, and it entered the grub shell all the time. Then I rerun the grub-install with the --force-lba option, and then it started smoothly.

Re: [Bug 10535] Re: GRUB hangs on please wait on ASUS K8V-SE Deluxe
Apology to Angela Akridge, I claimed that the bug you described was not relevant. Sorry for this, I noticed that you had described the same problem. Anyway, may guess is simply that the --force-lba option may be needed in some script, and in that case it could possible be experienced as a bug even though it wouldn't really be a bug in grub but in the bios then...

My boyfriend (Solaris kernel engineer, thank God) had to edit some grub files or something because Ubuntu overwrote my Windows boot loader with its Ubuntu bootloader. Then, he had to manually edit some files to tell the boot loader where to find the Windows partition. It was a total mess. I don't understand most of what went wrong. But, the bottom line is that it wasn't Windows that messed up. Ubuntu just doesn't know how to handle things when Windows is installed prior to Ubuntu. Things are working well now. It's really not an OS for human beings. I'll stick with my Windows, thank you. Sorry, but the way the person named Angela Akridge describe this make you sound more like a troll than anything else. I have used many different distros on plenty of machines since 1996 using both lilo and grub but never ever had the problem that a windows or dos partition would be ignored or the boot loader overwritten in the installation.

[Bug 10535] Re: GRUB hangs on please wait on ASUS K8V-SE Deluxe
I have the same problem on an ASUS M2N8-VMX motherboard. After installation I could reach the boot menu occasionally, but most of the times it hang on GRUB loading, please wait for a while, about 20 s, then it enters the grub shell, where it occasionally worked with a reboot but most of the times not. This problem was noticed with grub 0.97. The installation CD (6.06) booted flawlessly (ok had to add noapic usb-handoff to not hang later) To fix the grub hanging I copied grub 0.95 from another 64-bit machine (running debian sarge) /lib/grub/x86_64-pc/* /sbin/grub* and reinstalled grub, then it worked. Strange, however, is that it still takes a very long time (about 20 s) from GRUB loading, please wait until I get the boot menu. On other machines where I'm running grub I get the boot menu immediately. /Roland -- GRUB hangs on please wait on ASUS K8V-SE Deluxe https://launchpad.net/bugs/10535 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 23573] Re: openoffice.org2 creates pdf and ps files much bigger than oo1.1.3
I can't see any such option either, it asks for things like lossless compression and such. Since I started using OOo2 I have never used the export to pdf option because of the ridiculus output size usually, I print to postscript and then run ps2pdf, then I get a reasonable size. About this to include fonts I agree when it concerns more unusual fonts, but standard fonts like Times-Roman, Helvetica, Courier etc I have hard to see the usage for, and I have hard to understand that a couple of fonts would take a couple of 100 Kbytes. One example, I just exported a simple 2 page document with standard settings, containing two fonts and two small icons. export pdf gives 244338 bytes postcript print gives431774 bytes ps2pdf on printed postscript file 47057 bytes pdf2ps on exported pdf1048314 bytes compressing (gzip) the ps2pdf file 42962 bytes compressing the postcript pr fil281536 bytes compressing exported pdf 244338 bytes (no change) This seems to imply that there is a lot of incompressable but redundant information in the exported pdf file. I have hard to see that this would not be considered a bug. For some collegue who still uses OO 1.4 and runs export to pdf frequently I recommend them to wait until this is resolved, or alternatively use adobes pdf printer (included in the professional only). The size I get from postscript printed and ps2pdf converted is slightly bigger pdf files from OOo2, but just slightly more than 20 % or so, i.e. a few KB, but not hundreds of K.

[Bug 47387] Re: [Bug 47387] Re: Cups not working in dapper
Sorry, I was a little slow... You have removed the updated cupsys package from your directory, so I can't confirm that they fix the Phaser 8400 problem. I checked that the available drivers in dapper release are still the original ones, i.e. cupsys_1.2.0-0ubuntu5_i386.deb Can I find them at some other place?
