[Bug 318276] Re: serious xserver-xorg problem in 8.10
OK people, Change of diagnosis. The problem is: something in the display manager changes something in the BIOS. That is why I experience the same problems in different partitions too. After I reinstall the aforementioned VGA driver the problem is resolved. That is in all of my partitions but my current one. I confirmed the same problem on an Acer 5050. It is a 64-bit one, but also uses this VGA driver thing. To confirm this thing on other Acer machines: The most remarkable thing in Ubuntu is that pidof gdm gives two processes. Also the .xsession- errors was similar on the 5050. Could you please post a sticky for other Aspire users to check this out?

Hi there, wdm made it worse (8.10). I got 2 pid's for wdm and 1 for something else. I was prompted for a new gdm session, which I opened and am currently working from. Please look at .xsession-errors. I will now read through the Xorg debug wiki and see if I can debug. Then I kill gdm and try to retrieve wdm, then I use 9.04 for repartitioning.

[Bug 318276] Re: serious xserver-xorg problem in 8.10
Good, so much for that (see below). I am now going for a complete system backup and apt-get remove of xdm and wdm. Then I try the ulimit -c once more, but I have my doubts. After that it is 9.04, any ideas? r...@thomas-laptop:/home/thomas# gdb /usr/bin/Xorg /etc/X11/core GNU gdb 6.8-debian Copyright (C) 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

[Bug 318276] Re: serious xserver-xorg problem in 8.10
Hi there, I have found the cause and solution to this problem: Cause: The cause is ubuntu. Doing something in ubuntu caused the right keypad to crash, I have no idea what. When I tried to restore my ntfs file system in 9.04 live, the right keypad was dead still. Solution: After I reinstalled Microsoft I found that I had the problem in Microsoft too now. I never had this before. I thought something must have happened to the BIOS in ubuntu. I reflashed the BIOS with the most up to date version, to no help. Then I installed the Intel Graphics Accelerator Driver and instantly (prior to reboot I think I remember) the problem was solved. I restored grub from 8.10, because of the issue with the jaunty grub, see my bug on that. In the 8.10 live cd everything was back to normal now. Surprisingly it is not in my 8.10 main partition, although it was until after the login screen. I suspect that installing the intel graphics accelerator must have done something with the BIOS. I first encountered this problem about half a year ago, when I noticed that the safe graphics mode option could no longer be used from the 8.04 version, neither so from the 8.10 version. So it is a proprietary driver that does something with the phoenix BIOS, I don't know whether you can do anything with that, but I will attach them both here, also with a link to the Acer ftp site. ** Attachment added: .xsession-errors http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21455978/.xsession-errors -- serious xserver-xorg problem in 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/318276 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

Hi there Jouni, Would it be possible to keep this bug on hold? I will try again tomorrow. Either way, it is not xserver-xorg that is affected. I witnessed this thing with a variety of issues. What could help immensely: Is there a way to run dpkg-reconfigure verbosely? I assume this 'symptom' will be solved now as I configured me keyboard to: 8. Acer Laptop ; 27. UTFSC-8. So the right group of keys with numbers/arrows that you can activate/deactivate with numlock should work again. I have also installed xdm and wdm instead of gdm. I will now experiment with both. There is however a variety of symptoms other then the one I had in mind for this bug. Where do I start, the forum, IRC?

[Bug 318276] Re: serious xserver-xorg problem in 8.10
Good Timo: problem is: Various display issues, too long to list. See also (amongst others): #311237 The particular problem here is that after half a year of Ubuntu (and some MS, mostly under Virtualbox), suddenly the right keypad does not work anymore. I also had a case opened with Yahoo! for a lost password. I was able to have it reset by providing my personal data and they also don't understand what I am talking about. There the problem was I used the same brute force attack resistant pwd for both gmail and Yahoo! from a backup text file. I used Ctrl+C + Ctrl+V for both my gmail and my Yahoo! pwd. I will try now to do some X debugging and your coaching is appreciated. But please note: just because you don't have a clue about how to tackle this either, that doesn't make me a deaf dumb f*g j**k yet. Either way, this is 8.10 stable and 9.04 alfa 3. I first reported the compiz.real, libcanberra, metacity, gnome-loginsound stuff during 8.10 alfa-3. Why is it not fixed? I do not get any apport notices against it anymore, but it still is in ~/.xsession-errors. This is Microsoft debugging: cure one symptom, wait for the next, forget about the disease. Obviously I do not know how to tackle this, and I was wrong during 8.10 alfa-3. I thought the consolekit Segfaulting caused all of the other stuff as well, it did not. Now here I am sure I have an X problem, but not xserver-org, gdm or indeed xdm (see next comment).

Hi there, Ok, we are getting here somewhere. I did wrong, I admit it. 1) I did not check your policies on confirming your own bugs. 2) I went to bed last night, forgetting I still had to describe what this bug was about. My sincere apologies for that. [3) I am an a**h**e, not a r**t**d. I was born that way, they call it a neurobiological development disorder. Don't blame me, I voted Adolf.] So I am working from 8.10 right now, so I will upload var logs for that first, I will repeat this from Jaunty live in a second, when my backup finishes. (BTW, there is a distinct difference between being a computer illiterate and having an IQ of 75.)

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we can't fix it because your description didn't include enough information. At a minimum, we need: 1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem, 2. the behavior you expected, and 3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
