[Bug 1773597] Re: USB flash drive won't mount

2018-07-12 Thread Roy Kimbrell
I booted another machine (currently running 18.04) from the USB memory
stick with 16.04 on it. I plugged in three USB memory sticks. Each came
up in a couple of seconds. When that machine is running 18.04 it takes
4+ minutes for a single memory stick to be available.

Note that dmesg shows that the OS sees the memory stick nearly
immediately. It's Nautilus (guessing) that doesn't make it available.

[Bug 1773597] Re: USB flash drive won't mount

2018-07-11 Thread Roy Kimbrell
I booted the Dell Studio XPS machine from a USB drive loaded with Ubuntu
16.04. I inserted multiple USB drives (one holding the OS was already
there) and two others. They mounted within seconds and Nautilus
displayed their contents when the drive was clicked on.

This did not happen in Ubuntu 18.04. A drive would not come up for 4+
minutes. And would not mount multiple USB drives.

HOWEVER, something hinky did happen. When multiple drives were mounted,
the USB mouse would not function. So there is something wrong with the
USB subsystem in that machine.

But, 16.04 definitely worked better than 18.04.

My apologies. Sorry, but the encrypted USB drive was defective. I put it
in another computer (Ubuntu 17.10) and it would be recognized only if it
were held in the drive in a particular way. Either an internal
connection is bad or the external contacts are not aligned properly.

The other USB drive still takes 4+ minutes to be recognized and mounted
by the OS. In the other computer (Ubuntu 17.10) it comes up in less than
30 seconds.

Inserted a regular USB memory stick after the most recent update and a reboot. 
I always try this after an update in case something got fixed. The memory stick 
appeared on the desktop 4 minutes and 20 seconds after I inserted it. Too long, 
wouldn't you say?
 
I tried inserting my encrypted USB memory stick. Nothing happened after 7 
minutes. Here's the dmesg stream:

The latest Ubuntu update included Linux version 4.15.0-23-generic. This
appears, after a single test after a reboot, to have allowed a FAT-
formatted USB memory stick to be recognized and mounted. I opened the
device and copied a file to it then unmounted it with no problem.

However, the encrypted device still does not work. When inserted, a
dialog box appears that allows no input except in it. I entered the pass
phrase, but nothing happened except the pass phrase (dots only) were
spread out beyond their input area. The machine was effectively locked
out. Previously, I had power cycled the machine to get out of this
condition, but this time I had an appointment and just left it. When I
returned several hours later, the dialog box had disappeared. Yet I was
not able to access the device: a box with an error message appeared
instead. Nor could it be ejected: "Writing data to Lexar USB Flash Drive
Device should not be unplugged."

This problem may be associated with the USB software. I shut  down the
machine and pulled the battery and the Logitech mouse USB receiver.
Booted the machine. With just the sign-in box on the screen, both the
mouse and the trackpad worked. Immediately after sign-in the mouse could
not be controlled by the trackpad. The keyboard continued to work. I
rebooted the machine after removing the Logitech USB receiver. The
trackpad would not work. I inserted the Logitech USB receiver, but it
did not allow the mouse to work. Rebooting reactivated the Logitech
mouse.

The feature for mounting both unencrypted and encrypted USB drives
worked well(!) in Ubuntu 17.10. And it continues to work with the test
USB drives I'm using. If I insert an encrypted USB drive in my tower
machine (Ubuntu 17.10) I get a dialog box asking for my pass phrase
right away. If I enter the correct phrase, I get immediate access to the
contents of the USB drive.

I inserted a standard USB drive into my laptop (Ubuntu 18.04). After
about five minutes it was recognized and mounted. I inserted my
encrypted USB drive, but it was never mounted - presumably because the
file system type was not recognized - because something is wrong with
the decryption feature.

Five minutes is way(!) too long for the standard USB drive to wait to be
recognized.

tried:
sudo mount /dev/sdc1 temp

The drive mounted and I was able to access it.

Entered: 
sudo umount temp

and the drive appeared to unmount.

Tried the same with the encrypted drive and got this:

Booted a tower machine (it had been powered off) running Ubuntu 17.10
(Artful). Ran SW updates. Rebooted. Inserted encrypted USB flash drive.
Was asked several times for the password. Gave it - multiple times.
Finally I was able to open drive. That lasted about 10 minutes when all
the files in the window disappeared (folder is empty message). Pulled
the flash drive and reinserted it. This time it worked. Request for
password showed up in its black window. I entered the password (twice -
I might have screwed it up). Was able to access files with no problems.

After a reboot, inserted encrypted USB flash drive (32G Lexar). Waited
about 15 minutes and the request for the password was displayed. I
entered the password, but nothing happened. Waited five minutes - then
rebooted with the drive still inserted. It was not recognized (by
Nautilus) upon completion of the reboot. Removed and inserted and it was
eventually recognized, but no window asking for a password showed until
I opened the "file cabinet" and clicked on the drive listed on the left.
A request for password then appeared. I entered the password and was
able to open the drive. However after about ten minutes, I could not
open any files - a lock icon appeared on the file icon. Removed the USB
flash drive and rebooted.

This bug occurred on a Dell Studio XPS. It also occurred on an Alienware
machine - both fairly old, perhaps 8 years. The Alienware machine was at
the same software level as the Dell Studio XPS. On the Alienware
machine, occasionally after some time (say five minutes). With an
encrypted drive, the drive might appear (or not), but access was iffy -
with the system asking multiple times for the password, but almost never
granting access. When access was granted, access to the files was
eventually terminated - the directory window in Nautilus eventually
showing no files.

[Bug 374915] Re: Headphones do not work, built-in speakers do

2010-06-13 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Headphones not working for Karmic (9.10) 64-bit on a Dell Studio XPS but
speakers are working.

I´ve played with the pulseaudio volume control, turning on and off the
various devices and trying lots of combinations - no joy with any.  I've
got the backports installed - all of them for 2.6.31-22.  Still no
headphones.  I've added the following to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf:

alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel
alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
options snd-hda-intel model=del-m6
options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1

But this didn't do anything that I could tell.


Aplay -l sez

card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog]
  Subdevices: 1/1
  Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 1: HDMI [HDA ATI HDMI], device 3: ATI HDMI [ATI HDMI]
  Subdevices: 1/1

Looks like the fix reported by Pablo (#16, above) is for linux-alsa-
driver-modules-2.6.32-22-generic.  This isn't available in the normal
channel - e.g., using Synaptic since the current Linux version is
2.6.31-22 for Karmic.

[Bug 230541] Re: Wacom tablet doesn't work in Gutsy, freezes OS in Hardy

2009-06-11 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Good news.

I upgraded a Sony Vaio VGN-A270P from 8.10 to 9.04.  The problem with
the Wacom tablet had seemed to extend to general problems with the USB
interface.  So, I first plugged in a USB hard drive and copied about 30
GB to it.  This would have caused the OS to freeze in 8.10.  However,
the next morning everything seemed fine.

I then plugged in a 6x8 Wacom tablet and moved the mouse and pen around
a bit.  In 8.10 this, too, would have eventually caused the OS to
freeze.   That did not happen, the OS is still happy, but neither the
pen nor the mouse behaved as expected.  Initially the mouse would move
the screen cursor as expected, but now it doesn't move the cursor at
all.  The pen will move the cursor only vertically.

I opened Gimp, which recognized that a Wacom 6x8 was attached (looking
at PreferencesInput Devices).  But neither the pen nor the mouse
behaved properly in Gimp.

I have not done any configuration in /etc/hal/fdi/policy (the wacom.fdi
file) nor any in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  Perhaps doing that will make
things work.

At least the OS doesn't freeze.

Hardware: Sony Vaio VGN-A270P (ATI Radeon Mobility 9700)

Encountered a black screen where the log-in screen should have been on
the first reboot after upgrading from 8.10 to 9.04.  The solution (found

boot the recovery OS and then selecting the root console then
entering...

sudo apt-get remove --purge fglrx*

After that, it booted properly.

[Bug 228624] Re: DVD writer not working since hardy upgrade

2009-02-28 Thread Roy Kimbrell
As in the previous post, I performed the preferences.fdi automount code
on/off with a Sony DRX-500UL DVD reader/writer/rewriter.  With the code
active in preferences.fdi, I got continuous errors in an attempt to read
a movie DVD (Futurama Into the Wild Green Yonder).  With the code
inactive I was able to read the titles on the DVD using `handbrake -i
/dev/scd0 -t0`.

This reader/writer/rewriter is a rather old model.  As I remember I
acquired it about 5 years ago.

[Bug 228624] Re: DVD writer not working since hardy upgrade

2009-02-27 Thread Roy Kimbrell
This worked.  I did the following:

Entered `ls /dev/scd*` which showed that /dev/scd0 was not a device.

Connected a Sony DRX-S70U (which is a portable DVD reader/writer) to a
USB port.

`ls /dev/sc*` showed that /dev/scd0 was a device.

Put in a DVD movie.  Killed the movie player.

Ran `handbrake -i /dev/scd0 -t0` which would read the titles on the dvd
moive.  Handbrake encountered a screen full of errors in attempting to
read the DVD.  However, it eventually got over them and read the titles.

Ejected the DVD.
Unplugged the USB DVD reader/writer.
Entered the code referenced by Charles Atkinson in 
/etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi
Connected the USB DVD reader/writer.
Put in the same DVD movie.  The player did not start (as expected).
Entered `ls /dev/sc*` until /dev/scd0 showed up.
Ran handbrake again as above.
Handbrake showed NO errors this time and read all the titles.

I did this three times.  Each time turning on/off the code in
preferences.fdi (using comments).  Each time I got the same results.

So the work-around works for USB DVD drives.

I haven't tested it with a USB hard disk drive, which I will do
eventually.  However, this is a good sign.

The machine is an IBM Thinkpad X60s.
An HP Lightscribe HP dvd 840 works without the work-around.
A Targus PADVW010U never shows up in /dev

2009-01-28 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Looking at other bug reports, this appears to be a Linux bug.  See bug #
109211.

I've experienced this bug as well.  I've connected three different DVD
reader/writers, two Sonys and a Targa to an IBM ThinkPad X60s and a Sony
Viao via USB.  None of these worked - they behaved as described above.

However, I connected an HP DVD1040 Lightscribe to the IBM X60s which has
worked flawlessly.  So there's a hardware dependency.  Some USB DVD
drives work, some don't.

[Bug 294853] [NEW] Radeon driver nonfunctional in Intrepid

2008-11-06 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Public bug reported:

This may be related to bug 267241

On a Sony Vaio VGN-A270P. with an ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 chipset, I
had upgraded 8.04 (Hardy) to 8.10 (Intrepid) via the Update Manager (it
offered the upgrade) and rebooted. On the reboot, X would not load.
Xorg.0.log has toward the end...

drmOpenDevice: node name is /dev/dri/card0
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address)
drmOpenDevice: open result is -1, (No such device or address)
drmOpenDevice: Open failed

Then it gives a backtrace. There is nothing in /dev/dri

Booted the same machine (the Sony Vaio) with an alpha release live CD
8.10 (Intrepid) disk. It worked. The radeon module was loaded (I used
lsmod to check) and /dev/dri/card0 did exist. (There seemed to be a few
problems with X when trying to switch users, but I didn't play with it
enough to determine exactly what the problems were. Perhaps in fixing
these problems, something else got broken.)

So the point of this is that the radeon modules and the kernel were
working in the alpha version but not in the production version.

Adding 'Driver vesa' to xorg.conf brings up Gnome in low resolution
mode.

[Bug 155157] Re: no video overlay on external monitor

2008-10-18 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Good news.

I ran a test of the current Ubuntu 8.10 beta (Intrepid Ibex) and the
results are highly promising.

the test machine was an IBM Thinkpad X60s w/2GB RAM.  I downloaded the
current Ubuntu 8.10 beta (Intrepid) from
http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/intrepid/beta on Friday, 17 October and
burned a CD with the image.  I also downloaded a test video
(F-18A_Active_Aeroelastic_Wing_flight_test.ogg) onto another machine,
because I needed an open source format for the test to preclude having
to load a bunch of codecs.  I wanted to use just the default Intrepid
environment.

I booted the Thinkpad with the Intrepid image and copied the test video
(via sftp) from the other machine.  I then connected an external monitor
to the Thinkpad and configured it with the default application (I think
it was Screen Resolution in Preferences).  I took the default desktop,
which spanned both the laptop's screen and the external monitor.  I
restarted X (logged out and back in).  Finally I double clicked on the
video icon.  It DID DISPLAY on the external monitor.Yeah!

I shut down the laptop and rebooted it's native OS: Ubuntu 7.10, Gutsy.
(I use Gutsy because of some other problems with 8.04, Hardy.)  The
external monitor was still connected.  In this configuration, it
mirrored the laptop's screen.  (I checked the AdministrationScreen and
Graphics and verified that that's how it was configured.)  I copied the
same test video to this machine and double-clicked on it.  The video
displayed on the Thinkpad screen but DID NOT DISPLAY on the external
monitor.

So there you go.  This is NOT a complete test of the display
functionality, but it is certainly encouraging.

Thanks to everyone for all their hard work.

[Bug 230541] Re: Wacom tablet doesn't work in Gutsy, freezes OS in Hardy

2008-10-15 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Just installed the latest updates to Hardy on a Sony Vaio VGN-A270P. The
problem with USB devices continues. I have a 250G drive connected via
USB. I attempted to copy about 100G to that drive. It ran for 10 or 20
minutes then the OS locked up as it had before (e.g., pressing Caps-Lock
does not light the caps-lock LED, ctrl-alt-del has no effect, no mouse).
The fixes, if any, in the newest Ubuntu updates did not fix the problem.

[Bug 272188] [NEW] USB devices cause desktop to freeze in Intrepid

2008-09-19 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Public bug reported:

This bug was reported in Hardy (219345:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219345).  I have determined that some
USB devices will cause the desktop to freeze.  In this frozen condition,
pressing the caps-lock key does not cause the caps-lock LED to light and
ctrl-alt-del does not appear to register - there is no reboot.

The machine is a Sony Vaio VGN-270P.The linux release was 2.6.27-2
generic.

I booted the machine with Intrepid using a live Intrepid CD - that is, I
did not install the distribution on the machine, but only in memory.

Plugging in a Wacom tablet via USB will cause the desktop to freeze -
this happened within seconds of plugging in the table and moving the
mouse and pen.  This is the same behavior that occurred in Hardy.  It
did not occur in Gutsy, but the tablet was not functional in Gutsy,
either.

A USB-connected disk drive appears to work properly.  This was not the
case in Hardy - the anomalous behavior was mostly in locking folders
after copying into them.  I haven't tested the USB-connected drive
sufficiently to determine if it works or not.

Good luck with this.

[Bug 272267] [NEW] Cannot connect bluetooth mouse

[Bug 219345] Re: random freezes on Ubunt Hardy Heron

2008-06-26 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Please see Bug #230541.  I reported this a couple of weeks ago.  The
problem started in Hardy - it would freeze (no keyboard, caps-lock key
did not function - that is, the caps-lock led did not light).  I
encountered this problem when attaching a Wacom tablet (usb).  However,
in working with it and Justin Dugger (the Ubuntu Wacom guy), I
discovered the system would freeze with ANY usb device - disk drive,
tablet, and so on.  I believe the problem is in the usb device driver.
There's additional data with bug #230541 - dmesg file, logs, etc.

[Bug 155157] Re: no video overlay on external monitor

2008-06-25 Thread Roy Kimbrell
If the external monitor is showing a blue rectangle where the video is
supposed to be, this is probably a video overlay problem associated with
the driver for the particular graphics chips.  I obtained this info from
here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=123082

I have the same problem with a Thinkpad X60s - Intel graphics.  I did
what anewguy suggested and was able to display videos on an external
monitor.   This will work, he says, if you have an overlay problem.  You
start the video with one instance of the player (e.g., mplayer).  It
should show a blue rectangle on the external monitor.  Pause it and
minimize it.  Then start the video again with another instance of a
player.  I had to use a different program because the default program
would just start the video all over again.  So I started with mplayer,
paused it.  Then I started the video again with vlc.  This worked.  The
video showed up on the external monitor.

So at least on a Thinkpad X60s, there's an overlay problem in the
graphics drivers.

Here are the files.  Here's what I've done:

1. Installed Hardy (8.04) from a CD.
2. Ran memtest for 17 hours - no errors
3. Booted Hardy
4. Connected and configured  bluetooth mouse (this doesn't work great)
5. Applied all updates - rechecked and applied more - rechecked and found no 
more updates
6.  Installed Ubuntu Restricted modules and checked for updates once more - no

2008-06-16 Thread Roy Kimbrell
As you suspected, it looks like a kernel problem.  I loaded a different
distribution on the laptop (Fedora 9) to see if I could get a different
behavior.  No such luck, of course - being a kernel problem, the
software is pretty much the same.  But I did notice that I could get the
laptop to freeze by plugging in a USB drive, one with an IDE disk, and
copying several GBytes to it.  Also tried an sha1sum on a partial file
(an incomplete .iso I tried copying to the drive).  This caused a freeze
also.  After rebooting (several times to verify the problem), I left the
USB drive unplugged and plugged in a USB memory stick (1.0 GBytes).  I
copied several large files to it - and it caused the system to freeze as
well.

So It's not the Wacom.  It's the kernel.

Should I report this somewhere?

2008-06-05 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Okay, I've updated the machine - it's current.  I've plugged in the
Wacom tablet and let it sit for 5 hours.  The machine did, indeed
freeze, but here's what I did:

The tablet did not function.  `lsmod` shows a wacom module running, so
I'm assuming I don't have to rebuild the kernel to get this thing to
work.

The mouse gives a right-click event when clicking.  The stylus and
eraser do nothing.  Sometimes I can get the desktop to rotate - from one
desktop to the other.

I modified /etc/X11/xorg.conf to add the lines suggested at 
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=765915 (HOWTO: Wacom in 8.04 Hardy). 
These are as follows:
--
Section InputDevice
Driver  wacom
Identifier  stylus
Option  Device/dev/input/wacom
Option  Type  stylus
#   Option  ForceDevice   ISDV4 # Tablet PC ONLY
Option  USB   on
EndSection

Section InputDevice
Driver  wacom
Identifier  eraser
Option  Device/dev/input/wacom
Option  Type  eraser
#   Option  ForceDevice   ISDV4 # Tablet PC ONLY
Option  USB   on
EndSection

Section InputDevice
Driver  wacom
Identifier  cursor
Option  Device/dev/input/wacom
Option  Type  cursor
#   Option  ForceDevice   ISDV4 # Tablet PC ONLY
Option  USB   on
EndSection

Section InputDevice
Driver  wacom
Identifier  pad
Option  Device/dev/input/wacom
Option  Type  pad
Option  USB   on
EndSection
--

and in the ServerLayout section,...

--
InputDevice stylusSendCoreEvents
InputDevice cursorSendCoreEvents
InputDevice eraserSendCoreEvents
InputDevice pad
--

Then I rebooted the machine.

This did not seem to fix anything; however, the pen and eraser will now
make the cursor go up and down but not left and right.

While I was looking at the /var/log/xorg.0.log file, the machine froze.
I didn't see any complaints from X in the log (but I could have missed
them).  X did load the wacom driver.

Is there anything else I can do to help fix this?

The Intrepid Ibex kernel  huh?  Okay, I'll try to find that and see if
I can get it to work.  Otherwise, I'm not sure I'd be able to find the
broken lines.

In any case, something kind of odd happened.  I was looking at
Xorg.0.log and wondering why there were no Wacom entries.  I reached
over and moved the Wacom mouse - and the cursor actually moved as it
should.  I tried the pen and that worked, too.  But then the desktops
started shifting and the mouse and the pen stopped working.  However,
the Xorg.0.log file did contain Wacom entries.  I guess X doesn't do
anything until it gets an input to do something with.  I've attached the
latest Xorg.0.log file.

2008-06-04 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Okay.  HA!  I've been running the live CD trying to figure out what
conditions made Hardy (8.04) freeze.  This won't give you the log - it
FREEZES, then the log disappears on reboot.  I'll reinstall Hardy and do
this again.

In any case, this is what I've been up to.  Booted from the Hardy live
CD. Hadn't hooked up the Wacom yet.  Running a tail on
/var/log/messages.  Nothing happened the past couple of days (just
wireless manually switched off for a day then on for a day).  Got your
message, so I plugged in the Wacom tablet.  Got some kernel messages
immediately at the connect - just reporting what it was doing, they
don't seem terribly significant.  Moved the mouse and pen a bit, but no
cursor movement.  Could get a right-click event on clicking the mouse (a
mouse left click) but that's it.  To remove the right click menu (from
the Gnome desktop), I have to move the mouse a bit using the trackpad
and then left click.

Went to the bathroom.  When I got back the system had frozen.  No
messages in /var/log/messages that showed up before the freeze (other
than the Wacom connection messages mentioned above).

I'll Install Hardy and try this again.

Cheers,
Roy

2008-06-04 Thread Roy Kimbrell
I've installed Hardy.  Here's some notes I kept while and attempting to
recreate the freeze.

* Installed Hardy (8.04) from the live CD.  Wireless switched on from the start 
- remains on.
* Installed ATI accelerated graphics driver when offered the opportunity by 
Hardware Drivers.  Did not install other updates.
* Restarted computer as requested by install.  fglrx driver now in use
* Started terminal and `tail -f -n10 /var/log/messages`
* Disabled screen saver and screen-off power manager - need to be able to see 
screen when machine locks up
* Waited 2 hours.  Touched the trackpad occasionally - no problems.  
* Plugged in the Wacom tablet.  Messages showed up in /var/log/messages about 
the event - nothing suspicious.
* Touched the trackpad occasionally to see if the machine was still alive.
* 56 minutes later, the system is locked up.  No response ctrl-alt-del.  No 
response to ctrl-alt-backspace.
* Powered off by holding the power button.
* Removed the Wacom table connection.
* Powered on the machine. 

The Xorg.0.log.old file is attached.  I did a diff on Xorg.0.log and
Xorg.0.log.old.  There were only a few differences.  There was no
mention of a Wacom tablet.

Does the capslock key still work?

Don't know.  I'll see if I can get it to freeze again and try that.

If you're feeling particularly adventuresome, you might try some remote
debugging. If you can find another computer and two spare serial ports,
connect them by a null modem cable (different than your regular serial
cable) and see if any strange messages come up during the freeze, or if
you still get occasional --MARK-- messages.

I had a tail -f running on /var/log/messages the whole time.  All I saw
was --MARK-- messages.  However, that's not to say that the machine
froze before the message could appear on the screen.

http://wiki.sangoma.com/wanpipe-linux-system-debugging has a guide, if
you dare.  Hey, I'll take a look.  Don't know how good I'll be at this,
though.

I suspect this is a kernel problem.  There are lots of threads here and
elsewhere about freezing problems in Hardy.  The initial suspicion was
the Nvidia drivers, but several people had the problem on ATI machines
(such as this one).  Another suspicion was wireless - which is why I was
trying wireless on and off.

I'll keep plugging at it.  The next thing I'm going to do is let the
machine install all the updates.  One of them I've noticed is a new
kernel.  Maybe that'll fix it.

2008-06-04 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Interesting  The wheel on the mouse with the Wacom tablet causes the
desktop to shift left/right.  Scroll the wheel and the desktop shifts.

Anyway, here's the results of the latest.  Powered up again - still have not 
applied updates. 
Installed openssh-server (via apt-get).  System's name is Raven

Pre-freeze:
Caps-lock works.  
Responds to a ping.
Can connect to Raven via ssh from another system.  In ssh on another system, I 
started `tail -f -n10 /var/log/messages` and left it running.

Let it sit with the Wacom tablet connected.  It took just over two hours for 
the freeze to occur.
Post-freeze:
Caps-lock DOES NOT work.
DOES NOT respond to a ping.
The terminal running the ssh connection to Raven DOES NOT respond.
In addition, there were no additional messages in /var/log/messages except for 
--MARK--'s that appeared on the ssh-connected machine.  These are the same 
--MARK's-- on the terminal I opened on Raven's desktop with the `tail -f 
/var/log/message` - nothing additional.

I guess this means it's a kernel problem (not hardware I suppose since
this doesn't occur in Gutsy).

I'm not going to try the null-modem cable unless you think it might be
useful.  Let me know.

I'm going to apply the updates - new kernel and all - and try again.

[Bug 175113] Re: Unable to plug a blutooth mouse

2008-05-14 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Same problem with both 7.10 and 8.04.  Right click on Bluetooth icon,
select browse device, click on Bluetooth Travel Mouse (type
mouse), click on Connect. Get the following error:

obex://[00:07:61:3b:e5:e8] is not a valid location.

The number string is the Bluetooth mouse's address and is correct.

I have worked around the problem by creating a short script containing

sudo hidd --connect 00:07:61:3b:e5:e8
hidd --show

The `hidd --show` command isn't at all necessary.  Sometimes I have to
hit the connect button on the mouse or turn it off then on.

Regards, guys, and thanks for all the fish.
Roy

[Bug 217504] Re: acpi_fakekey stopped working for certain keycodes

2008-05-14 Thread Roy Kimbrell
FYI

The CD eject button (and others) on my Sony Vaio VGN-A270P work fine in
7.10.  They do NOT work in 8.04!  Something (obviously) broke sonypi
(I'm guessing).  Running xev on 7.10 (clean install) gets the following
when pushing the eject button:

FocusIn event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x321,
mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyPointer

KeymapNotify event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
keys:  1   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   
   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   16  0   0   0   0   0   0   

FocusOut event, serial 30, synthetic NO, window 0x321,
mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyPointer

On 8.04 (clean install) it did nothing at all.  I've reinstalled 7.10 on
the Vaio because of other problems with 8.04.  However, if you'd like me
to reinstall 8.04 and run some tests, I'd be happy to do whatever I can
to help.

Thanks
Roy

[Bug 230541] [NEW] Wacom tablet doesn't work in Gutsy, freezes OS in Hardy

2008-05-14 Thread Roy Kimbrell
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: wacom-tools

I had initially not used the tablet when running Gutsy.  Loaded Hardy
via the upgrade path.  Then because of the Wacom problem and others,
downloaded Gutsy (7.10) and did a fresh install.  Currently running
Gutsy (7.10).

Gutsy, clean install.
Connected Wacom tablet and rebooted.
Pen movement erratic on screen.  No mouse movement.  Tends to make right-button 
events.
Uncommented lines in xorg.conf after Uncomment if you have a wacom tablet - 
no change
dmesg|grep wacom reports

[   14.368000] usbcore: registered new interface driver wacom
[   14.368000] 
/build/buildd/linux-source-2.6.22-2.6.22/drivers/input/tablet/wacom_sys.c: 
v1.46:USB Wacom Graphire and Wacom Intuos tablet driver

As in bug report #33777 and #66646, it doesn't appear to be an X problem
- /var/log/Xorg.0.log seems to be okay.  I can attach a copy of the log
if you wish.

Hardy, install via the upgrade path.
Wacom tablet was connected during installation and subsequent reboots.
Would get system freezes shortly after logging in - in less than 5 minutes.  
Disconnected tablet and freezes stopped.  (Though there would be an occasional 
freeze after the system had been up for awhile - don't know if this is a 
related problem.)  

Machine is a Sony Vaio VGN-A270P with 2 GB memory.

** Affects: wacom-tools (Ubuntu)
 Importance: Undecided
 Status: New
