As shown on middle of screenshot, occasionaly some character are incorrectly 
rendered. If repaint action is triggered
(e.g. selecting text, or somethign similar, depending on application), 
character is repainted correctly.

[Bug 1290775] [NEW] X freeze, garbled output, "*ERROR* Failed to schedule IB" on RV635/M86 (Radeon HD3650) and RV620

2014-03-11 Thread Darko S
Public bug reported:

On two different computers stragnge display errors are encountered.

Machine A is a laptop:
uname: Linux x 3.11.0-18-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 18 21:11:14 UTC 2014 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
/proc/cmdline: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-18-generic root=UUID=... ro 
quiet splash vt.handoff=7

Machine B is desktop PC:
uname: Linux x 3.11.0-18-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 18 21:11:14 UTC 2014 
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
/proc/cmdline: root=/dev/mapper/somelv ro quiet splash

Both machines are running Ubuntu 13.10, with frequent updates (say, at least or 
more than once a week).
Both are running xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:7.2.0-0ubuntu10, neither has 
installed anything with fglrx nor catalyst in package name.

On B (desktop PC), display was occasionaly garbled with small artefacts (like 
few pixel lines of random dots), and occasionally screen freezes, than goes 
blank for a second, then works normaly again for some time - but after 3-4 such 
cycles, display permanently freezes. Restarting lightdm through one of VT 
consoles helped. Some applications, like firefox, caused these problems to be 
more frequent.  
Then, as machine was frequently updated in hope of a fix, this changed, but to 
worse. Screen went completely garbled, mouse pointer turned to large square 
full of random noise, but underlying applications were probably running. VT 
consoles also went garbled and hard to use. Both DVI outputs were affected.

On A machine display is mostly blank (though BIOS and GRUP screens are 
presented OK), sometimes graphical greeter (logon screen) is displayed, 
sometimes not. Bu in either case machine freezes and no logon is possible.
Sometimes SysRq keys are working to reboot can be done, sometimes not.
As this machine is equiped with swithchable graphics, when other GPU (Intel, 
integrated) is used display is presented ok.

[Bug 1025914] [NEW] java-wrappers fails ito find java runtimes installed in /opt

2012-07-17 Thread Darko S
Public bug reported:

UBUNTU RELEASE (cat /etc/lsb-release)
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=12.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=precise
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 12.04 LTS"

PACKAGES
ii  freemind   0.9.0+dfsg-1   Java Program for creating and viewing Mindmaps
ii  java-wrappers  0.1.24 wrappers for java executables


When  /etc/alternatives/java points to java runtime installed in /opt (example 
may be /opt/ibm-java-i386-60/bin/java), then in 
/usr/lib/java-wrappers/jvm-list.sh emply value is assigned to __jvm_alt in 
following assignment:

__jvm_alt=$(readlink /etc/alternatives/java|sed -n
's/\(\/usr\/lib\/jvm\/[^\/]*\)\/.*/\1/p')

Reason is that bacause sed expression did not match path in /opt/..., no
substitution is made, and such sed statement prints pattern space only
if substitution is made.

Therefore in /usr/lib/java-wrappers/java-wrappers.sh fgrep in following code 
always succeeds and JAVA_HOME is set to empty:
if echo "$DIRS" | fgrep "$__jvm_alt" > /dev/null ; then
JAVA_HOME="$__jvm_alt"
java_debug "Picking up the JVM designated by the alternatives 
system: "
java_debug "  JAVA_HOME = '$JAVA_HOME'"
else

# And pick up the first one that works reasonably
for dir in $DIRS; do
if [ -x $dir/bin/java ]; then
JAVA_HOME=$dir
break;
fi
done
fi

This eventually leads to this abnormal exit:
if [ "$JAVA_HOME" ] ; then
# ... omitted ...
else
java_warning "No java runtime was found"
return 1;
fi

Hence other packages that use java-wrappers, e.g. freemind, experience
other failures because java-wrappers failure. In example of freemind, it
will not start at all.
