[Kernel-packages] [Bug 659253] Re: maverick live cd won't boot
On a Dell Inspiron 8200 with Nvidia NV17 (64MB) graphics, I encountered the same problem trying to boot Ubuntu or Lubuntu Saucy (13.10) Live discs. Entering 'help' at the boot: prompt produced a special boot menu, but below the menu there was an option to simply press Enter to boot. Doing that resulted in booting to the Live desktop *without* the usual two menu screens where I choose my Language and then choose to Try *buntu Without Installing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659253 Title: maverick live cd won't boot Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: The live cd for the Maverick release won't boot.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1212455] Re: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space
Good news -- Daniel Vetter from the upstream maintainers list responded to the email with the more descriptive SUBJECT. He wrote: Still a flash bug. This commit simply enables rgb555 in the kernel, which sna likes to use on gen2/3. Flash is just too dense and always presumes xrgb. Adding Section Screen Identifier igd DefaultDepth 24 EndSection to your xorg.conf will work around. - And doing so here did successfully work around the behavior for the machines I reported on. I note for other users that just the snippet above in an otherwise blank xorg.conf will do. And many users, like me, will have no existing xorg.conf but will have to create one, such as I did at /etc/X11/xorg.conf (though there are many other locations where X will find the file). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212455 Title: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In my testing with the Intel driver using its default acceleration, what works: - Flash 11.2 works on Quantal with the 3.5 kernel - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.5.0-17 kernel (though it boots to a low-res desktop with a frozen pointer) - Flash 11.2 works on Raring also with the 3.6.11-030611 or 3.7.10-030710 mainline kernels - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.8 kernel (in Chrome) what fails: - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the 3.8 kernel - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the latest mainline kernel, 3.11.0-031100rc5 - Flash 11.2 fails on Saucy alpha 2 with its default kernel Disabling Flash *hardware* acceleration altogether (via R-click in the Flash display window: Settings: General tab) did not fix the problem.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1212455] Re: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space
Not hearing anything here, I installed just the linux-headers and linux- image deb files, and not the linux-firmware or linux-libc-dev debs. I also started the next kernel build at the make clean step from the linux folder, but the build process then injected a bunch of prompts very similar to what I saw when I was updating the kernel configuration file during the first kernel build. So I now think that succeeding kernel builds must repeat every step except git clone. I hope that doesn't foul up the bisection results. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212455 Title: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: In my testing with the Intel driver using its default acceleration, what works: - Flash 11.2 works on Quantal with the 3.5 kernel - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.5.0-17 kernel (though it boots to a low-res desktop with a frozen pointer) - Flash 11.2 works on Raring also with the 3.6.11-030611 or 3.7.10-030710 mainline kernels - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.8 kernel (in Chrome) what fails: - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the 3.8 kernel - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the latest mainline kernel, 3.11.0-031100rc5 - Flash 11.2 fails on Saucy alpha 2 with its default kernel Disabling Flash *hardware* acceleration altogether (via R-click in the Flash display window: Settings: General tab) did not fix the problem.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1212455] Re: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space
More newbie questions from an end-user: 1) Https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild instructions after making the kernel: Now install the .deb files. In this example, the files are linux- image-2.6.24-rc5-custom_2.6.24-rc5-custom-10.00.Custom_i386.deb and linux-headers-2.6.24-rc5-custom_2.6.24-rc5-custom-10.00.Custom_i386.deb. You may receive warnings about '/lib/firmware/2.6.24-rc5-custom/' - this is expected and will only be problematic if the driver you are trying to test requires firmware. That is, it only specifies installation of linux-image*.deb and linux- headers*.deb. My build also produced a linux-firmware-image*.deb and linux-libc-dev*.deb. Can I/should I leave those uninstalled here? 2) Https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection instructions after installing and testing the first new kernel: Repeat the process: build, install, test, and report back test results with git bisect good or bad. But it seems to me that I would not repeat the entire process from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1212455] Re: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space
I was in the process of building the mainline kernel for the first commit identified by git bisect. (I skipped the exercise of building the two mainline kernels that mapped from the good and bad Ubuntu kernels.) I ran this command at step 8: make -j `getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN` deb-pkg LOCALVERSION=-MainlineBisect1 (substituting MainlineBisect1 for custom). The machine worked on this for perhaps 8 hours (I stopped monitoring at some point and let it run overnight). I found these warnings/errors at the end of the results: dpkg-gencontrol: warning: File::FcntlLock not available; using flock which is not NFS-safe dpkg-deb: building package `linux-firmware-image' in `../linux-firmware-image_3.7.0-MainlineBisect1-1_i386.deb'. dpkg-gencontrol: error: illegal package name 'linux-headers-3.7.0-MainlineBisect1': character 'M' not allowed make[1]: *** [deb-pkg] Error 255 make: *** [deb-pkg] Error 2 It did produce linux-firmware-image_3.7.0-MainlineBisect1-1_i386.deb (a 1.1MB file), but nothing else. A couple questions then: 1) Was MainlineBisect1 not allowed as a string substitute for custom? If not, what is allowed? 2) Do I have to back up to perhaps make clean and do the 8-hour thing over again, or can I salvage whatever it was doing for 8 hours? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212455 Title: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: In my testing with the Intel driver using its default acceleration, what works: - Flash 11.2 works on Quantal with the 3.5 kernel - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.5.0-17 kernel (though it boots to a low-res desktop with a frozen pointer) - Flash 11.2 works on Raring also with the 3.6.11-030611 or 3.7.10-030710 mainline kernels - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.8 kernel (in Chrome) what fails: - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the 3.8 kernel - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the latest mainline kernel, 3.11.0-031100rc5 - Flash 11.2 fails on Saucy alpha 2 with its default kernel Disabling Flash *hardware* acceleration altogether (via R-click in the Flash display window: Settings: General tab) did not fix the problem.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1212455] Re: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space
In an off-Launchpad direct exchange, I received some direction that You would want to bisect the mainline kernel instead of the Ubuntu kernel. I should say more directly that I have never done kernel bisection until now, though I'm game for the effort. Nonetheless, very little can be taken for granted. Does the above direction mean that when I get to the procedure Commit bisecting Ubuntu kernel versions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection, I should use it only as some sort of a general guideline and switch to commit bisecting mainline kernels? If so, I'm not seeing how. Still assuming that I should use git bisect, I'm not seeing an identifiable *mainline* git repo at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git, and alternatively I'm not seeing *git* repos at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/. Perhaps there are non-Ubuntu-related mainline git repos somewhere that I should be using. I'm sure this is all laughably self-evident to any developer reading this, but I'm just a somewhat experienced user trying to work in the higher realms where bugs are fixed, so kindly indulge me. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212455 Title: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: In my testing with the Intel driver using its default acceleration, what works: - Flash 11.2 works on Quantal with the 3.5 kernel - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.5.0-17 kernel (though it boots to a low-res desktop with a frozen pointer) - Flash 11.2 works on Raring also with the 3.6.11-030611 or 3.7.10-030710 mainline kernels - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.8 kernel (in Chrome) what fails: - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the 3.8 kernel - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the latest mainline kernel, 3.11.0-031100rc5 - Flash 11.2 fails on Saucy alpha 2 with its default kernel Disabling Flash *hardware* acceleration altogether (via R-click in the Flash display window: Settings: General tab) did not fix the problem.

I have seen the issue with any Flash content I encountered. But to reproduce it, as far as I know you need to be using one of the affected Intel graphics chipsets. The machine I was reporting from has an 845G chipset. It has also been reported for 855G and 865G (see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2132368, and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1178982 Comment #21). In addition, from what I have read all of the affected machines are Dell's, but that may be a simple consequence of the popularity of those Dell PC's. (I have 4 Dell Dimension 2400's here and several more near cousins.) In my thread on the Lubuntu email list, one regular on the list said all of my older Dell machines have the problem.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1212455] Re: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space
I did test the latest mainline kernel, but as of this moment don't have a clue about how to test the latest Xorg stack or bisect a regression. (Though if I wanted to get a clue about bisecting a regression, I could follow your link regarding that, thanks.) The online archive of the email begins with my email at http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/dri-devel/2013-August/043876.html Happily for me as regards my time investment on this problem, but perhaps unhappily as regards fixing the problem, Chris Wilson from the Intel Open Source Technology Centre rendered this summary judgment in a reply: It's a flash bug. They ignore the format of the Window that they PutImage to. (Worse, they create an image of the right depth or else X would reject the PutImage with a BadMatch and then render incorrect pixel data into it.) If his assessment is on the mark, and if you have a PC with affected Intel graphics that you want to display Flash content, it would seem that the only recourse is to install a supported non-Intel video card. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212455 Title: 8086:2562 Flash 11.2 content displays in shades of green and purple only, and in a horizontally compressed space Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: In my testing with the Intel driver using its default acceleration: - Flash 11.2 works on Quantal with the 3.5 kernel - Flash 11.2 works on Raring with the 3.5.0-17 kernel (though it boots to a low-res desktop with a frozen pointer) - Flash 11.2 works on Raring also with the 3.6.11-030611 or 3.7.10-030710 mainline kernels - Flash 11.8 works on Raring with the 3.8 kernel (in Chrome) - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the 3.8 kernel - Flash 11.2 fails on Raring with the latest mainline kernel, 3.11.0-031100rc5 - Flash 11.2 fails on Saucy alpha 2 with its default kernel Disabling Flash *hardware* acceleration altogether (via R-click in the Flash display window: Settings: General tab) did not fix the problem.

I created /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf with contents: Section Device Identifier Intel Graphics Driver intel Option AccelMethod sna Option TearFreetrue EndSection But this had no effect. There was a helpful bug report file against Linux at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1178982. Workarounds posted there were to change the Xorg acceleration method to UXA, or boot with an older kernel. The bug was closed only because the original poster didn't have possession of the machine anymore.
