[Bug 751057] Re: grub-pc upgrade on Amazon EC2: The GRUB boot loader was previously installed to a disk that is no longer present, or whose unique identifier has changed for some reason.

2019-12-06 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
This problem has happened again. Updating 16.04 instances on AWS, it
upgrades 'grub-pc' and displays the missing disk error and tries to push
the user into installing grub on one or more disks. If you resist the
prompts and do not install, no harm seems to occur. Really misleading
prompt though.

This bug got marked 'invalid' because the upstream bug it was tracking
#504763 got closed. But it was closed as being a duplicate of the bug
where the work is being done #753966.

So it is not fixed yet, although they are finally working on it
upstream. This Ubuntu bug should be reopened and changed to track

[Bug 944040] Re: Cannot connect to RDP if host fingerprint changes

2013-08-28 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I just got hit by this on 13.04 / Raring after a update pushed
yesterday. Suddenly Reminna decided not to connect to any of my hosts
just saying connection failed. After moving aside ~/.freerdp/known_hosts
file I could connect again.

Comparing the before/after known_host files, freerdp appears to have
suddenly decided that all the fingerprints for all the hosts I connect
to have simultaneous changed. Every computer I connect to now is
displaying and storing a new an different fingerprint value in
known_hosts from the previous file. I assume this is because I shifted
to a parallel universe in my sleep?

[Bug 974480] Re: Notification area whitelist is obsolete

2013-06-29 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
After using using 13.04 everyday for good couple months now, I just want
to come and let the team know just how aggravating this decision still
is every day. I don't care about Ubuntu's politics or disagreements with
Linux app developers who don't care to adopt the 'Unity way'. I care
that my day-to-day user experience is, and continues to be made
needlessly frustrating.

Applications I use every day, like Google Chrome and JungleDisk, are
still not working and still a pain to have to go kill them from the task
list just because am forbidden by Mark's ideology from seeing the tray
icon. Anti-user decisions driven by ideology is why my next laptop will
definitely not be Linux; I know Mint is there and most people seem to be
switching to that now; but it still the Ubuntu-based and I think these
things are going to keep happening :-(

At least Microsoft brings back the start menu that is what users want.
Pity the Ubuntu team values their users so much less.

I have been a proud Linux/Ubuntu user for eight years now, but this is
the last straw for me.

I'm finding with 13.04 64bit latest updates, I can't copy more that 50MB

of unkillable/defunct processes that you have to reboot to clear.

I have tried copying with Nautilus or rsync, and I have tried copy from
a SMB source and from a USB/iPad source. Universally anything gvfs
touches is soon broken if you transfer more that ~50Mb of files. I've
just gone around loop of trying things getting stuck/unkillable/defunct

[Bug 1043118] Re: Shows Error while adding the file monitor.

2013-01-29 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I've done more investigation and it mostly points to the libgnomevfs or
inotify.

I have tried upgrading Shutter to latest stable release
(0.90~ppa4~precise1) but same problem.

I have tried downgrading the libgnomevfs packages from the current
1:2.24.4-1ubuntu2.1 release back to 1:2.24.4-1ubuntu2, then logging out
and logging in, but that didn't help either, so I reverted to latest
stable.

I have tried increasing the number of files that can be watched with
inotify from the default 65535 to 10, in case between Dropbox and
Shutter it was running out (though I only have 5000 Dropbox files and 12
Shutter files).

  /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches

But that didn't help either. In fact Dropbox stopped working too, says
'Can't access DropBox folder'. Again this is a local filesystem folder.
I assume gnomevfs and/or inotify flaked for Dropbox too.

At that stage a full reboot appears to clear the problem, and Shutter
and Dropbox sprang to life again. inotify is a kernel service so I guess
it is possible that the kernel, inotify, or gnomevfs has some sort of
resource leak, and one of them is the root cause of our Shutter
problems. Anyone more knowledgeable on inotify think that is a valid
theory?

Shutter and Dropbox are pretty mission-critical for me so this Ubuntu
12.04 LTS regression is obsessing me :)

[Bug 1019395] Re: At random times NM applet menu stops responding

2012-09-02 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I have had it every since the 11.10 Unity release. It affects menus and
non-Unity system tray icon menus also (like shutter, empathy, reminna).
I believe it is actually a Unity/Compiz problem rather than Network
Manager specific. It definitely does not require a suspend/restore to
happen, just enough time/activity.

What happens is after a period of use, usually less that a day, some
kind of resource appear to run out or have leaked itself out. Then
various things that require the resources stop works; so dynamically-
created menus tend to be the first victims. The Network Manager VPN menu
is definitely once of the most crippling because I know no work-around.
Certainly no amount of restarting NM etc, will help. Logging out and
logging back in again will fix it for a few hours, then you'll be
screwed again.

I suspect, without any proof of knowledge, that the fault hits when you
get close to needing to page or reclaim memory. I have 8GB and usually
would be at ~7GB in used for applications/VM when it hits. That could
just be coincidence though.

I have given up expecting any of major Unity bugs to get fixed, so I
just live with it until I get my next laptop, which of course will
definitely not have Unity. Maybe Mint, or hell, Windows XP would be a
step up at this stage :-)

In the meantime, if anyone has any work-around that doesn't require a
log-out I'd love to hear about it.

[Bug 1006019] Re: Empathy can't connect to a Jabber account.

2012-06-04 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
After upgrade to 12.04 my Empathy and jabber accounts were working fine.
After recent ubuntu updates (last few days) it is unstable and usually
dies a little while after login. Empathy locks up for a while then say
can't connect to Telepathy. Logging out/in and full restarts don't fix
it, in that telepathy appears to lock up after time.

There was an error while trying to connect to the Telepathy Account Manager. 
The error was:
Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did 
not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply 
timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

Manually killing and restarting all telepathy and empathy processes does
fix the problem for a while, but when I look later I find jabber
accounts no long working and telepathy shows errors like above if I try
to connect.

When I restart mission-control-5 I get a warning, though may be nothing
unusual?

(process:5511): mcd-WARNING **: Could not add client names match rule:
Key 'arg0namespace' in match rule contains junk after argument number.
Only 'path' is optionally valid ('arg0path' for example).

And while connecting get some of these warnings, labelled 'CRITICAL',
permission problem?

[Bug 937522] Re: rdp clipboard sync doesn't work anymore.

2012-05-22 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Thanks for reviewing the patch Clint. Just want to correct one thing;
The update isn't adding a feature, it is correcting a significant
regression introduced by the precise release (clipboard works fine in
oneric releases and earlier). Also, for regular Remmina users the
clipboard is an essential feature.

Precise is the first release in which Remmina is the default RDP/VNC
app, so it is a pity if it spends five years being a significantly
broken version and everyone having to patch it or replace it from a PPA
themselves :-)

2012-04-01 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I can confirm Gwibber still unusably slow with high CPU use on 11.10
with Gwibber 3.2.1.

(OT OTT rant: In fact gwibber-service has made gwibber unusably slow

over two years in the distribution is there any point persisting with
trying to fix it? It's flaw seem pretty fundamentally 'baked into' the
design.  It's only virtue is telepathy integration, is there another
Twitter client to which we can add that?

Gwibber doesn't even seem well maintained. It doesn't have any man pages
or documentation (try clicking 'Get Help' on the 'Help' menu). It can't
tell you its own command line options. It does have regular releases,
but mostly rearranging deck chairs, nothing that addresses the
fundamental performance problems and resulting unresponsive UI. The
project site hasn't has a news/blog entry since 2010

[Bug 905793] Re: Tray Icons Suddenly Stop Working in Unity

2012-03-16 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I still get this problem with stock 11.10 almost every day. It occurs
more often when I am using just one screen (laptop). For me the trigger
appears either related to suspending and resuming (as it is after
resuming that I most often note the system tray icons have stopped
working) or to using Remina full-screen.

I guess I'll try what comes with 12.04, but that is the last chance for
me. My 6-month experiment with using Unity full-time continues to be
miserable. If all the major Unity problems with the task bar and with
multi-monitor support aren't sorted with 12.04 it's sadly time to move
on from Ubuntu :-(

I see this too. Unually the window goes full screen initially, but later
while you are using the full-screen app, the Unity stuff pops on top of
the full-screen app. I get it most when using Bibble 5 / AfterShot Pro
and I think it may be related to when focus changes to a pop-up window
the full screen app pops-up. I get this when using a single-screen,
mainly because that is where I use apps full-screen.

[Bug 905793] Re: Tray Icons Suddenly Stop Working in Unity

2012-01-31 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I started noticing the same problem with system tray icons in 11.10 in
January. At some point in my session all the system try icons stop
responding. The applications still work, however the system tray icons
do not respond to any mouse clicks. The native/indicator element are not
affected. All the system tray icons stop working at the same time. The
particular apps for me are: Skype, Remmina, Empathy, and Chrome.

If I quit/kil an app, e.g. Remmina, the Remmina system try icon will
disappear. If I re-run the app, the system tray icon will appear again,
in the left-most location, but it still won't respond to clicks.

Restarting the panel service ( killall unity-panel-service ) does not
fix the problem, the panel comes back but system try icons still don't
work.

A complete unity restart via ( unity --replace ) does work, but that's
not much of a fix because usually Unity loses windows, stuffs up
window/unity stack orders, loses the launcher, or does all the not-
wonderful things Unity does on multi-monitor set-up. So in the end the
only fix I have right now it to log out completely.

I have yet to work out the exact trigger than cause system tray failure. I only 
started getting is this month, but others have reported the same thing back to 
June 2011.

[Bug 674138] Re: Global appmenu breaks sloppy focus

2011-10-15 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Good news, other people trying to restore their productivity in the face
of Unity global menus have found some ways that might allow you to keep
using Unity rather than necessarily switching back to Gnome.

  
http://www.addictivetips.com/ubuntu-linux-tips/how-to-disable-global-menu-in-ubuntu-11-10-tip/
   Uninstall the global menus: sudo apt-get remove appmenu-gtk3 appmenu-gtk 
appmenu-qt

  http://www.webupd8.org/2011/03/disable-appmenu-global-menu-in-ubuntu.html
Set an environment variable: UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0

Once global menus are out of the way you can restore focus-follows-
mouse.

Of course what we would all like is focus-follows-eye, but until then,
focus-follows-mouse will keep you from the RSI-inducing task of clicking
back and forth between the applications you're using.

Plus you save all those return mouse trips to the top left of the left-
most screen every time you need something on an application menu.

[Bug 861643] Re: CCSM crashes Unity

2011-10-15 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Upgraded to 11.10 with Unity 4.22.0-0ubuntu3 and got the same thing.

Started ccsm and went to Preferences so I could save/export everything
as it was, before I looked at changing anything. Before I could even do
that though, unity and/or ccsm went crazy and screwed itself. Heaps of
disk activity and unity disappeared never to return. Managed to manually
get window manager back but no launcher or menu bar. Re-logged-in and
got into ccsm and noticed the unity plug-in was now disabled. Tried to
enable but found its now clashed with other settings - so I think other
settings got changed. But that did get me the launcher and menu bar
back. Looking at the ccsm profiles drop-down there is 'Default' but a
couple of other entries with un-printable unicode characters. Pretty
radical reaction considering I hadn't changed any setting!

The issue says fix released in 4.20.0-0ubuntu1 but multiple people still
report the same problem, so I think status need updating.

[Bug 861643] Re: CCSM crashes Unity

2011-10-15 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
A bit more info. I am using 11.10 with CCSM 0.9.5.92 with Unity
4.22.0-0ubuntu3, upgraded from 11.04.

- In CCSM, enabling or disabling *any* plug-in will cause Unity to crash
and burn. By running Unity myself I can see it is dying with a
segmentation fault

- In CSSM, going anywhere near anything on the 'Preferences' screen will
causes unity to crash and burn (again segmentation fault). Note you
don't need to make any changes, just looking at the backend menu, or
clicking on '+' to add a profile, or clicking on export - all these will
lead to Unity crashing.

- Changing setting within a plug-in is sometimes ok, Unity may or may
not die from that. Lots of strangeness though, e.g. both Gnome
Compatibility and Unity bind the 'Alt-F2' action to run commands, and
CCSM complains about the clash. However, 'Alt-F2' only actually works to
pop-up the Unity run dialog if you have it set to 'Alt-F2' in both plug-
ins.

Currently CCSM and Unity seem mutually pretty incompatible. Looks like
Unity is unstable under configuration changes.

[Bug 791770] Re: empty vpn

2011-09-27 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
With recent patches network manager menu is barely functional. Using
latest stock NM on stock 11.04.

Typically after a restore the sub-menus for 'More Networks...' for wifi,
and the 'VPNs' sub-menu, turn into empty little stubs, so you can select
anything that is supposed to be on them. So far a completed restart is
the only way I can restore them; stopping/starting the network-manager
service or stopping/starting networking doesn't help.

With last update the enable/disable wireless doesn't work, once
connected to wifi I can switch to a wired configuration any more. After
restore the 'Edit connections...' option doesn't work.

Does NM/Ubuntu only support Unity now? I tried hard to switch to Unity
for 4 full weeks with 11.04, but I just couldn't my work done with all
the chrome problems; it just killed my productivity. So I am back on
Gnome + Docky.

[Bug 508939] Re: Wrong colors when printing

2011-07-18 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
The bug just hit me too, after upgrading to 11.04 Natty. eVince still
prints PDFs fine, but the same PDFs printed from Acrobat (acroread)
seems to screw any text or the areas of any images that should involve
black ink. I am printing to an HP OfficeJet 7410. Using Acrobat
9.4.2-0natty-1 with hplip 3.11.1-2ubuntu2. The problem affects all PDF
files I have tried from multiple sources.

I tried all the print options in acroread, like 'let printer select
colours', 'level-2 postscript', and even 'print as image', but these
didn't help, the same problems with any area of the page that needs
black occurs.

Previously on Ubuntu Lucid I could print from acroread with hp-lip to
this same printer fine, with no colour problems.

[Bug 340099] Re: Scan all pages option doesn't stop when all pages are done

2011-06-19 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Since I upgraded to 11.04 I've had this problem with gscan2pdf v0.9.31
when using libsane-perl front-end with HP OfficeJet 7410, where scanning
never stops, just keeps adding empty pages, whether using flatbed or
ADF.

Following the tip above I ticked 'Batch scan' under Preferences - Advanced and 
the problem stopped.
Is there any reason you wouldn't watch 'Batch scan' enabled by default?

Following another tip above I changed to 'scamimage' front-end in
Preferences and I also don't get the problem.

[Bug 340099] Re: Scan all pages option doesn't stop when all pages are done

2011-06-19 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Sorry, an important caveat to my previous report:

Following the tip above I ticked 'Batch scan' under Preferences -
Advanced and the problem stopped.

Although the infinite empty pages problem stops, the last page in the
ADF never get ejected and the scanner gets stuck. I have to press the
'Cancel' button on the scanner after every scan. So selecting 'Batch
scan' for HP-7410 is only a partial solution.

Following another tip above I changed to 'scamimage' front-end in
Preferences and I also don't get the problem.

So right now the only complete solution I have is to switch to using
'scanimage' front-end (also with the 'Batch Scan' option enabled - which
seems to default on for 'scanimage' but default off for 'libsane-perl').

[Bug 419182] Re: KVM and audio driver in Windows 7

2011-03-06 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Good news. Looks like newer sound drivers are coming to Qemu in 0.14
(Maverick has 0.12.5, but Natty has 0.14) that work with Windows 7.

http://wiki.qemu.org/ChangeLog/0.14


Sound

* New Intel HD Audio support (commit), adding three new devices:
  o intel-hda: Intel HD Audio Controller, the PCI device.
  o hda-duplex: HDA Codec. Attaches to the HDA bus. Supports 16bit 
stereo, rates 16k - 96k, playback, recording and volume control (with 
CONFIG_MIXEMU=y).
  o hda-output: HDA Codec without recording support. Subset of the 
hda-duplex codec. Use this if you don't want your guests access your mic. 
* Usage: add '-device intel-hda -device hda-duplex' to your command line.
* Tested guests:
  o Linux works.
  o Win7 works.
  o DOS (mpxplay) works.
  o WinXP doesn't work.

[Bug 419182] Re: KVM and audio driver in Windows 7

2011-03-05 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
From reading the VirtualBox site they had the same problem, that none of
the emulated sound cards would work with 64bit Windows 7/2008 as they
are all too old chipsets. They solved it by adding a new sound card to
Virtual Box ('Intel HD Audio'). But appears this remains a compatibility
'bug' for kvm/qemu.

This bug has been marked invalid, however I don't think that is a
sensible position; as the only viable fix can be a kvm/qemu change, as
it seems unlikely anyone is going to write 64bit Windows drivers for the
old unsupported chipsets that kvm/qemu provides.

That is kinda like marking a bug about no VM IDE hard disk emulation
support as invalid because the VM provides MFM hard disk emulation :-)
Even emulated hardware need to keep up with technology.

  # FIXME: no policy ATM for hplip and Brother drivers

And that has worked fine with Jaunty 9.04 for almost a year, then
suddenly now the same problem reoccurred and the filter can't run any
more, even with the additions above.

In the meantime I have to switch apparmor to complain only to work

It is really quite unhelpful that manufacturers like HP and Brother who

for their printers then get them regularly broken in Ubuntu by its
apparmor CUPS policy. It would be great if HP/Brother and Ubuntu could
work together on a more end-user-friendly approach.

2009-12-03 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
@Ahmad - yeah very annoying bug that affects laptop users every day they
use Ubuntu; But Gnome is I think mostly unfunded community development,
so if we don't like we should fix it ourselves, sponsor someone to fix
it, or be patient. Canonical should have an interest in fixing this as
it detracts from the daily user experience of their product. With so
many duplicate bugs of this being posted all the time, many subscribers,
many people cursing this same Ubuntu/Gnome bug for years, it would
certainly seem to be a bit more that a paper cut for users.

[Bug 273505] Re: crash of Xorg using xrandr

2009-11-17 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I saw this problem with Intrepid (9.04) on a Lenovo X301 with the Mobile
Intel GMA 4500 MHD (integrated), but I haven't seen the problem since
Jaunty (9.10). As a mobile laptop using I xrandr for different external
screens and projectors a couple of times a day.

The Xrandr applet has its quirks in 9.10, like putting the new
confirmation/roll-back dialogue under its own window, but it doesn't
crash the X server for me any more, which is fabulous.

Following an xrandr change to a larger size a lot of applications can
still act funny. Most notable is Firefox and Thunderbird, their auto-
complete drop-list won't work expect inside the original (smaller) pre-
xrandr screen size. Not sure if this is a ui toolkit issue or a
missed/ignored screen size change notification. But presumably not
related to this bug anyway.

To reproduce use xrandr to change the horizontal resolution of the
screen to a larger and then smaller width, and note what happens to your
right-aligned applets.

This affects laptop users who use external monitors that have a
different horizontal resolution. When added and removing external
monitors, all the right-aligned applets change order. Locking or not
locking the applets doesn't seem to help.

[Bug 244354] Re: Unable to mount Garmin as USB drive (device descriptor read/64, error -71)

2009-07-14 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I was able to get the Garmin Forerunner 305 to be correctly recognised
by using a different USB cable from the one that came with the Garmin.
With the original cable I get messages like I posted above, with a
different cable the device gets correctly recognised. If you see this
sort of things it is worth trying a couple of USB cables, even if the
one you are using works with other devices or other computers.

[Bug 363659] Re: Network Manager Applet does not update connection settings

2009-07-08 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I have the same problem in 9.04. You can't enter a blank password,
because the settings editor will not replace an existing password with a
blank password.

You used to be able to fix this be deleting and recreating the entire
account and being careful not to edit the password. Now though (recent
updates) it seems to stick 'guest' in as the default username and
password if you don't set them.

So no I am screwed, I can't use NM to connect to 3G connections any
more, simply because I can't set a blank password!

Is there any way to bypass the edit setting dialog and manually blank
out the password?

[Bug 360319] Re: [GM45] memory leak causes system to run out of memory (UXA/EXA)

2009-06-06 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I have identical set-up to the original reporter: Jaunty, fully updated,
intel X4500MHD. I didn't used to see this problem, but since upgrading
to xserver-xorg-video-intel 2.6.3 I started getting this. Typically for
me I load a program the pre-allocates some memory - a wireshark capture
is a good one, and suddenly ubuntu will page ~200MB to disk. Even though
there is 3GB+ of free RAM, it just keeps adding to the swap each time,
and never seems to swap back.

Doesn't sound like there is any new version that fixes this yet, since
still reported here as present in 2.7.99.1, but I'll try a new version
when there is one that claims to fix this.

[Bug 199245] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crash opening any window: BadWindow X error under Xvnc

2009-05-20 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
The resolution not being configurable by the vnc client is expected I
think. Xvnc and I assume vnc4server don't support xrandr so you can't
change the resolution from what is configured on the server when the
display is created. So I think that one is a limitation rather than a
bug. You can make multiple virtual displays on the server, each at
different resolutions to suit different client devices (netbook vs.
laptop).

Pity g-s-m is still crashing on jaunty though!

[Bug 374359] Re: Kernel Oops (NULL Pointer) in 2.6.28-12 (sysfs problem?)

2009-05-12 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Brian, this bug was associated with the 'linux' package which the
FindRightPackage said was the right package for kernel bugs.

I looked for a more specific package, like 'sysfs' but couldn't find
one. I did find 'sysfsutils' but that appeared to be a userland rather
than kernel package.

If anyone can point to be a more appropriate package than 'linux' for a
kernel/sysfs bug please do let me know.

Aaron.

[Bug 365527] Re: [i945g] Jaunty freezes all the time

2009-05-12 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I tried upgrading to the 2.6.30 kernel to reduce the many way Jaunty
freezes, kernel oops, GPU lock-ups, and wireless module lock-ups that
arrived with Jaunty. So many major regressions in a single production
release! Problem is the 2.6.30 kernel is built with an old gcc and that
cause problems with vmware server 2, which I need.

So I downgraded and I am now trying the 'jauny-proposed' 2.6.28-12
kernel and -intel driver, together with the 'jaunty-backports' wireless
(iwlagn) module. Things have been a bit better for ~24 hours. The Jaunty
back-ports iwlagn module is still poked, but just causing kernel errors
rather than total machine lock-up like the stock Jaunty one. I need to
get work down so I have actually been using an ethernet cable to avoid
wireless.

As soon I get some time I'll try to find some way to escape the misery
that is Jaunty, downgrade to 8.10 (my happy place :-) or get the karmic
kernel to work with vmware.

[Bug 374359] Re: Kernel Oops (NULL Pointer) in 2.6.28-12

2009-05-10 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
In the last six hours had two more 'Oops's followed by wedges.

One time I inserted a USB stick, there was another 'Oops' and about 2
minutes last the entire system began wedging. Didn't seem to be able to
write to the file system. Apps in memory and not writing to disk remain
responsive. The 'Oops' is a attached, but I don't get much evidence from
the wedge since the system can't write anything to the logs.

What appears to be in common is all the 'Oops' seem to related to
'sysfs'. From the info collected here could it be 'sysfs' causing all
this grief? All of this grief appears to have arrive with Jaunty kernel,
never seen anything like this with Intrepid.

[Bug 328484] Re: [q45] displayport monitors not detected in Intrepid

2009-05-04 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I've using the DisplayPort successfully on my Lenovo X301 (Intel
integrated graphics) with Jaunty (stock release). I'm using it via the
Lenovo (i.e. Foxconn) DisplayPort-to-DVI cable though. Am I really using
DisplayPort then? I had thought the cable does an active signal
conversion so it is DisplayPort signally. I guess I am surprised it
works if the Intel driver doesn't support DisplayPort.

Anyway, with the converter the DisplayPort works great with Jaunty. It
mostly worked with Intrepid too, but I used to get this phantom third
monitor in the resolution control panel. Jaunty has cleaned that up too.

[Bug 362133] Re: many NULL pointer derefences, random hangs, segfaults

2009-05-03 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Since upgrading to jaunty 9.04 on a Lenovo X301 with Intel i915 graphics
I am having kernel oops where the screen display, mouse pointer and
keyboard lock-up. Everything else operates (that I can see via network
interface), but no keyboard combinations cause any reaction. Below is
the relevant /var/log/messages section. Is this related to this bug?

[Bug 357673] Re: No notification when sliding audio volume, muting volume, sliding LCD brightness on X31, X32, T60, R50e, T42, R52

2009-05-03 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Even on new laptops (I'm using an X301) there is no
/proc/acpi/ibm/brightness

The brightness is outside of the ibm-specific ACPI stuff and under each
monitor, e.g. /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness

There is a folder in 'VID' for each possible monitor output, including
the built in LCD. Normally only the built-in LCD has adjustable
brightness, but you could imagine that more that one monitor may have
adjustable brightness in the future.

cat /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness 
levels:  20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 90 100
current: 75

cat /proc/acpi/video/VID/CRT0/brightness 
not supported

The '/proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness' value changes when using the
brightness hot keys. It actually jumps two values until it runs out of
values and then it change to the last value, e.g. moving up and down you
can get to all 16 values but in a two-sweep sequence.

  100 - 85 - 75-  65 - 55 - 45 - 35 - 25 - 20 - 30 - 40 - 50
- 60 - 70 - 80 - 90 - 100

[Bug 368642] Re: [915GM] Random laptop lockup after upgrade to 9.04

2009-05-03 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Doesn't sounds like the same thing sorry - if anything more than your
mouse pointer works on you screen it probably isn't. And I don't think
people with the Intel video lock-ups have any high CPU.

(Suggestion: Check your 'System Monitor' is displaying all processes (on
view menu). I noticed that when you upgrade to Jaunty this preference is
reverted to just show your processes. If you are looking at all
processes you might see what it using you CPU. Likely it is trackerd
using up all of your CPU. It seem almost everyone upgrading to Jaunty
has their trackerd go haywire and consume CPU or repeatedly complain of
corrupt indices. Could be that.)

[Bug 350552] Re: [Hotkey] EeePC 901 Brightnesskeys not translated from ACPI to Input event

2009-05-02 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I don't get any OSD for brightness on EeePC 901 with Jaunty 9.04 (just
upgraded from 8.10). The brightness changes but no OSD.

Also tried installing Eeeasy script/package which added some other
things but didn't fix the brightness OSD.

I tried the acpi and xev command used above and got the same results, no
xevent occurs when the brightness keys are pressed.

[Bug 328484] Re: [igc4] displayport monitors not detected in Intrepid

2009-04-11 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Using stock Intrepid 8.10 Intel driver on a Lenovo X301 (Intel GMA
X4500MHD) I can use the Displayport (with both mirrored and virtual
monitor) however with the intel X drivers and compiz I get all sorts of
missed re-draw events when windows launch. When windows launch they will
be partially drawn. 'Wiping' another window over the area fixes the
damage.

This redrawing problem disappears if I switch back to the RGB cable
(same BENQ 20 monitor) with compiz, or if I use the Displaylink cable
with metacity. How can I tell if this is an intel driver bug or a compiz
bug?

Nothing in the Xlog.0.log, acts like no errors occurred (version number
and hardware snipets below).

[Bug 293660] Re: tsclient always tries to reconnect

2009-03-29 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I've found reports of this bug back as far as 2005. I affects me too on
8.04 and 8.10.

It appears that if rdesktop generates any output or perhaps exit code at
all, then tsclient treats that a valid reason to reconnect.

So, for example, if you request 24-bit colour and the remote computer
only supports 16-bit, rdesktop outputs a warning (no problem). Later
however, when rdesktop exits because you deliberately closed it,
tsclient uses the earlier warning about colour depth to trigger an
automatic reconnect. Very frustrating.

  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=86131

  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3659984

The reconnect behaviour needs to be removed or disabled until it gets
smarter about checking the rdesktop messages.

[Bug 90752] Re: DVB - Guard interval changes for Channel Seven Australia

2009-03-28 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Even with this fixed the DVB-T channel information is limited and out-
of-date for Australia. It may be unreasonable for the distribution to
try and cover all the world's channels and changes. For Australia
though, I found good information and made an up to date (March 2009)
tuning files. I posted the info here:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6970739#post6970739

For people creating or updating the Australia channel files, I found the
DVB-T channel plan for Australia here:

http://www.dtvforum.info/lofiversion...hp/t19148.html

I found what appears to be up to date local channel info for Australia
here:

http://vk3khb.gak.net.au/tv_lists/

From this information I built good scan files for my area.

Note: I found the different channels using guards of 1/8, 1/16, and
sometime 1/32.

[Bug 281289] Re: compiz crashes when switching resolution in a multi-monitor setup.

2009-03-28 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 131679 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/131679

I get the sample problem plus others with 8.10 Intrepid and compiz,
however I don't any of the problems with unlocking described in bug
#131679 of which this is supposed to be duplicate. Also, that unlocking
bug apparently affects metacity as well as compiz, whereas the problem
described here definitely only happens with using compiz (switching to
metacity makes this bug go away). It may be the same crash/exit point,
but I suggest it might not be the same cause, so perhaps a separate bug.

I'm using an intel video card on an Lenovo X301. When switching back
from two monitors to one with compiz enabled, I usually get logged out
and need to log in again. I assume the X server is crashing? The
workaround is to switch to metacity, change to one monitor, then switch
back to compiz.

When switching from one monitor to two with compiz enabled, only the
original area remains under compiz control, the rest is blank or full
off old images. Re-starting compiz gets it to take control of the whole
area.

Using compiz and switching to using mirror on external monitors with a
small res, when switching back I often end up with no window manager at
all. Just undecorated windows and no way to get keyboard focus anywhere.

I suspect that the multi-monitor support may not be the root issue, it
seems like any time you reduce the X resolution of the display, compiz+X
can blow-up. Likewise compiz doesn't seem to notice when the X
resolution of the display is increased.

All the res/monitor switching is done with the Gnome 'Monitor Resolution
Setting' applet. It seems like compiz is not really integrated with
Gnome. I gather compiz is better integrated in KDE 4, so hopefully that
integration is coming for Gnome?

If it is useful, what and where should I collect error logs for posting
here when this stuff happens?

Aaron.

[Bug 135418] Re: black screen after resolution change with activated compiz

2009-03-28 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I get something similar to this whenever I increase the screen
resolution with compiz enabled. The screen is not usually totally blank,
it is full of patches of bit of windows (that aren't there) and the real
windows aren't re-drawn but can still be interacted with - but only in
the area of the old smaller resolution. Using a shell in that area to
restart compiz (compiz --replace) gets things re-drawn and working again
for the whole increased resolution.

Increasing the resolution using metacity does not have this problem,

Using Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid amd64 architecture with Intel card on Lenovo
X301 notebook.

[Bug 326104] Re: [iG45] [Jaunty alpha3]Compiz issue: change to higher resolution cause distorted screen

2009-03-28 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
There are similar bug reports like this one for 8.04, and 8.10, e.g.
#249790.

The common thread appears to be compiz on an Intel card (so presumably
Intel X server). It could affect other combinations but the reports I've
seen have all been on Intel cards.

If *increasing* the resolution, compiz doesn't notice it, doesn't adjust
or redraw the screen. Workaround is to restart compiz after the change
('compiz --replace'), or switch to metacity when making the change.

If *decreasing* the resolution, compiz+X frequently - but not always -
crashes and logs you out. The workaround is to switch to metacity while
reducing the resolution, then switch back to compiz.

2009-03-28 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Not sure if this is the same thing but ATI users appear to be reporting
similar problems with compiz and resolution changes in both 8.04 Hardy
and 8.10 Intrepid, see #206998 and #205085. Again is these cases,
switching to metacity makes the problems go away. Not surprisingly,
patches to xrandr are implicated; so it might be versions of
xrandr+compiz that is the root bad combination rather than the
particular X server.

[Bug 326104] Re: [iG45] [Jaunty alpha3]Compiz issue: change to higher resolution cause distorted screen

2009-03-28 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
Found a collection of bug reports (#132065 and duplicates) going way
back where compiz also doesn't react if xrandr is use to rotate a screen
(e.g. for tablets). Again restarting compiz corrects things. Again
metacity notices the change and automatically adjusts.

Does this mean compiz is where a fix is needed? Since the problem always
involve compiz, occurs across multiple X servers, and since other
windows managers (metacity) play fine with xrandr?

[Bug 262817] Re: [NM 0.7 - intrepid] DHCP org.freedesktop.Dbus.Error.AccessDenied

2009-01-03 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I can confirm the same problem just upgraded a stock 8.04 Hardy with
Network Manager 0.7 to 8.10 Intrepid. My wired and wireless networking
stopped working. DHCP wasn't working for any interface. DHCP worked fine
before the upgrade.

I was able to manually configure a network interface, but was then
blocked from reinstalling 'network manager' by 'network manager' itself
claiming I was still 'offline' (the same thing that network manager uses
to screw up bluetooth networking and firefox/thunderbird).

After reading this bug: By changing the user from 'dhcp' to 'root' in
the '/etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-dhcp-client.conf' I was able to get DHCP
going again.

Like the rest of us with this problem I have certainly never edited or
even heard of the '/etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-dhcp-client.conf' file.

Upgrading to 8.10 has been a huge disaster/regression for networking
particularly for netbook users (most problems have been related to
drivers used in the market leading netbooks like ASUS and Acer). I've
just spent hours reading many many web pages and forum posts from the
many suffering Ubuntu users who upgraded and found their networking
stopped working, PPTP stopped working, DHCP stopping working, and a few
other problems. Then, with no working network, they have extra problems
trying to restore their systems. I read several angry venting people say
they are giving up on Ubuntu completely and going back to XP. That's sad
for all the hard work the Ubuntu team and community put in. 8.10 may
have many improvements but I think it has been a net set-back for the
Ubuntu/Linux community.

Some sort of bold warning about the networking regressions should be
added to the upgrade process or a fix applied to 8.10 otherwise more
Ubuntu users will suffer if they upgrade their Hardy installations. Even
if just a warning to wait for Jaunty or something.

Aaron.

[Bug 286285] Re: kernel 2.6.27-7-generic bug BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/0/0x00000100

2008-12-03 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I am using the -10 proposed kernel on a Lenovo X301 with Intel 5300
wifi. So I should be using the iwlagn module. It is working for me and
no more kernel messages. Still not perfect though, the wifi interface
does not come up after a suspend or hibernate. I have to do a

  sudo ifconfig wlan0 up

after any suspend or hibernate. I actually built it into a sleep.d
script. Now I reliably get the interface back on resume/thaw.

As long as I bring up the interface fast enough, NetworkManager does
reconnect me, though it takes it 10-20 seconds to start reconnecting me.

If I don't manually bring up the interface fast enough after a
resume/thaw, I also find I need to restart NetworkManager to convince it
to notice the wifi interface and reconnect.

[Bug 111893] Re: Panel items lose their order when panel is not expanded

2008-11-30 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I also see this problem with Ubuntu 8.10 intrepid (amd64), gnome-panel
2.24.1. I've tried locking and unlocking every way I can think of but
still the placement and order shifts around.

For me is it is particularly the notification area applet (2.24.1) that
shifts around. Most other things seems to stay in place. Perhaps it is
problematic as it is the only element that changes size?

I notice it strikes in particular when the screen size changes - which
makes sense I guess. It seems there is no sense of 'right-aligned' and
no space-filling elements you can insert.

[Bug 270997] Re: intrepid regression: rdesktop overrides window manger key binding even when -K is used

2008-11-29 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
The -K option doesn't work for me either in rdesktop. Installing the
older 1.6.0-0ubuntu2 version fixes the problem.

The older version also fixes a - what I guess could be related - mouse
grab problem. With the current version, gnome, and focus-follows-mouse,
once the keyboard gets grabbed you also can't move the rdesktop window
or drop-down gnome menus until you can get the focus to another window.
Luckily you can minimise or close the rdesktop window or click on the
workspace applet to escape.

BTW, If that '-y' option has been added then the man page is now out of
date as it doesn't mention it.

Intrepid has been quite a regression for mixed Windows environments,
with both a faulty pptp and rdesktop, neither of which is fixed yet in
the official release. Not good if conversions from the Windows user base
are any sort of priority.

I had the same problem and appear to have sorted it by updating the

[Bug 276943] Re: Resume from suspend doesn't not work on the Mobile 4 Series chipsets

2008-11-24 Thread Aaron Roydhouse
I've read other threads like this, as I sometimes had the same problem
on an Lenovo X301. The workaround for me was to switch to just one cpu
core before suspending/hibernating. When you resume/thaw, give it a few
seconds and switch the other core back on. This worked for me. The
theory is that there is a multi-threading issue somewhere which can
affect multi-core CPU, perhaps just these low-power ones. You can
automate the fix with a script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/, see thread for
example:

The comment above applies to both the EeePC 70x and EeePC 900 series (I
can't speak for the EeePC 901 and EeePC 1000). They both do not have
working microphones on a Ubuntu 8.04 install. However each has different
sound hardware and a different fix.

EeePC 70x - Adding options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-dig to
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base is a reported fix.

EeePC 900 - Adding options snd-hda-intel model=auto to /etc/modprobe.d
/alsa-base is a reported partial fix to get the microphone hardware
operating. However most people still cannot record reliably or with any
volume. A full fix is not yet determined. The microphone done work under
Xandros and XP.

I experienced the same problem with gnome-settings-daemon using Xvnc

For the other dimwits like me, you can stop searching for the

now. People are referring to a tree of settings that you can change
using the 'gconf-editor' application. Run that application and untick
the 'active' setting for 'keyboard'.
