[Bug 1292041] Re: Lockscreen doesn't turn off the screen

2014-10-29 Thread Bob Wanamaker
I'm running both Unity and Cinnamon in 14.04 with lightdm. That way 
unity-greeter takes over on logout from both.
To get display power off to work on my desktop I added (username) and root to 
lightwm in the /etc/group file.

lightdm:x:111:(username),root

Then I added the executable script /usr/bin/dpms-start :

#!/bin/sh
#
/usr/bin/xset +dpms
exit

In the /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/ directory I added the
50-dpms.conf file :

[SeatDefaults]
display-setup-script=/usr/bin/dpms-start

A bash script may also work by changing the user to lightdm before
executing /usr/bin/dpms-start :

sudo xhost +SI:localuser:lightdm
sudo su lightdm -s /bin/bash HERE
/usr/bin/dpms-start
exit
HERE

You then don't have to modify the /etc/group file. Hope this works for
others still having trouble.

[Bug 823935] Re: update-manager needs gir1.2-unity-3.0 to run

2014-03-18 Thread Bob Wanamaker
The error message still appears running update-manager (1:0.156.14.12)
for precise but the program doesn't crash. The error message is
eliminated loading gir1.2-unity-5.0 and gir1.2-dee-1.0. May need a patch
to eliminate the search for a once dependent library.

[Bug 276272] Re: warning during installation: WARNING: Failed to parse default value

2011-09-29 Thread Bob Wanamaker
I was running into the same WARNING message and was able to eliminate it
by replacing two files in the directory /usr/share/gconf/schemas. The
files, control-center.schemas and gnome-control-center.schemas, were
moved to .orig files. The source of the replacement files was this URL:

http://search.4shared.com/q/1/control-center.schemas

After a re-install of update-manager, the WARNING was gone and
desktop.en_US.utf8.cache was rebuilt:

 Unpacking replacement update-manager ...
Processing triggers for hicolor-icon-theme ...
Processing triggers for gconf2 ...
Processing triggers for python-gmenu ...
Rebuilding /usr/share/applications/desktop.en_US.utf8.cache...
Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils ...
Processing triggers for man-db ...
Processing triggers for python-support ...
Setting up update-manager (1:0.134.11) ...

After a dpkg-reconfigure gconf2, there was no WARNING message.

It may have happened during an Ubuntu update when gnome-control-center
was also updated, since both the files were much larger and quite
different from the .orig files. I have compressed the new files and
attached them.

Ubuntu Lucid  10.04.3 LTS

[Bug 572777] Re: NetworkManager or wpa_supplicant timing out when connecting wireless

2010-10-28 Thread Bob Wanamaker
A Broadband bcm4318 seems to associate more quickly by adding -Dwext to
the service file exec line.

/usr/share/dbus-1/system-
services/fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant.service

Exec=/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -u -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log

This is suggested at http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43,
last line but is somewhat misleading.

It will stay connected for a while - b43 is much better than ndiswrapper
with a windoze driver.

[Bug 511583] Re: NetworkManager does not get DNS servers

2010-01-23 Thread Bob Wanamaker
Found this bug in Jaunty network-manager_0.7.1~rc4.1.cf199a964-0ubuntu2
source

NetworkManager.c, line 55
#define NM_DEFAULT_PID_FILE LOCALSTATEDIR/run/NetworkManager.pid
/etc/init.d/NetworkManager, line 28
PIDDIR=${localstatedir}/run/NetworkManager

That puts the .pid file in /var/run/NetworkManager rather than /var/run
and locks up any start/restart

Modify the init.d file to:
PIDDIR=${localstatedir}/run

A quick fix, at least in Jaunty.

[Bug 304344] Re: wireless connections to wpa ap with ndiswrapper fails after suspention. sudo invoke-rc.d wpa-ifupdown restart solves the problem

2010-01-22 Thread Bob Wanamaker
I upgraded to Jaunty and find that this works to make a wireless WPA
connection after boot.

1. disable wireless in network manager applet
2. service wpa-ifupdown stop
3. enable wireless

The wpa-supplicant .log file then reads successful WPA key negotiation:

[Bug 84531] Re: sagcad crashed on use of dimension line

2009-04-03 Thread Bob Wanamaker
I have attached some patches that get sagcad going. It is still very
Incomplete as a 2D cad package! Not everything works correctly yet but
my time to work on it has been limited! I also included english document
files that will appear in the browser based on the online documentation.
The en folder should be copied recursively to
/usr/share/doc/sagcad/html. I compiled it in hardy where the hardy
update version would not run at all. It still needs work on many of the
menu options.

[Bug 108928] Re: Scrambled Keys in feisty ubuntu desktop

2009-01-20 Thread Bob Wanamaker
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 112955 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112955

Another hack for this problem in feisty that works for me. Append the
following lines to the Default file in /etc/gdm/PostSession :

KB_BACKUP=$HOME/.gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/keyboard/kbd.sysbackup

if [ -d $KB_BACKUP ]; then
rm -r $KB_BACKUP
fi

This eliminates the annoying keymap query when logging into the server after a 
VNC visit. It returns to the 
originally configured xorg.conf setup. I haven't tested it when there are two 
logins to the same account.
