2012-11-09 Thread Ketil Malde
Unfortunately, the CUPS developers - if there indeed are any - do not give a shit. The command line tools are brain dead by design, the documentation is inaccurate, there are essentially no error checking or reporting, and it has been this way since the inception. Here's a bug from 2006 - guess

Interestingly, I generated two PDFs with xelatex, identical except for including a PNG image. Both documents look okay in Evince, but the one with the image prints the reverse (even numbered) pages upside down. Unfortunately, I can't attach the documents here, but contact me privately (ketil a

I can't believe this is still in. Is CUPS unused in enterprise environments? In my opinion, CUPS is good infrastructure, but it needs a bit of love with documentation and user interaction and so on. Which it somehow isn't getting, and it puzzles me why - most other system critical stuff seems

Pidgin has been working for me (with the env variable workaround for MS servers), but now suddenly it fails to display a window. Debug (-d) and strace seem to indicate the program is otherwise working. When I Ctrl-C, the window appears to flicker on screen before terminating. While it is

Or, just changing the prefs name='blist' [...] pref name='list_visible' type='bool' value='0'/ from '0' to '1' also brought the window back. I guess this is a Gnomism, Pidgin isn't expected to work without some supporting things running alongside it, panels or whatever, so it starts up

I stumbled into the same thing: When specifying 'nomodeset' as a kernel parameter on an Intel i915 system (built in HD4400 graphics), I sometimes used to get a black screen in 13.09. In 14.04, the system would come up, but limited to 1024x768 resolution, and the monitor would be undetected (named

I don't know if it is relevant here, but I got the same response from xrandr (about gamma), and also struggled with wrong resolutions. For me, the cause was the 'nomodeset' kernel parameter, this (i.e. disabling kernel modesetting) caused the i915 graphics driver to fail, and the vesa driver to be
