[Bug 1165965] Re: External display stopped working

2013-11-28 Thread Hans-Peter Schadler
I can also confirm that it works more reliable with 3.12.0-031200rc6-generic 
(and 3.12.0-031200-generic), but it is still not perfect. I would have to 
ability to test it on two cases where it does not work. Both are beamers 
(different models, I have to check which one exactly) and both are connected 
over very long VGA cables.
This is still an annoying bug, at least there was some progress so that it 
started to work again for most monitors I tried. Now it would be nice to get it 
working on beamers too.

Can I do something to test this? I have checked the dmesg messages and there 
are no messages like
[drm:intel_dp_i2c_aux_ch] *ERROR* too many retries, giving up
what happened before kernel 3.12 (and maybe kernel 3.11.4). From xrandr output 
I noticed, that the DP1 connector is shown as disconnected and also no modes 
are shown (before kernel 3.12 there was sometimes a resolution of the external 
monitor detected).

[Bug 1165965] Re: External display stopped working on MacBook Air

2013-07-21 Thread Hans-Peter Schadler
The same problem (external interface DP1 showing as disconnected,
sometimes showing the resolutions) happens to me on my Macbook Air 4,2
since already Ubuntu 12.10. This affects also derivatives like Mint and
also other distributions like Archlinux. From this I would conclude that
it is a general problem with the kernel and/or Intel Xorg driver.

The problems depend a little bit on the external monitor that I am using: A 
normal 19'' LCD with VGA connector works sometimes (after rebooting, 
suspend/resume, disconnecting/reconnecting). A no-name LCD TV (also VGA 
connector) doesn't work even with trying all of the things that worked for the 
19''. The problems seemed to be gotten worse with Ubuntu 13.04 in comparison 
with 12.10. With 12.10 I could also get the TV to work after playing around a 
little bit.
As I am using the Air to give talks, this is a major deal-breaker (as also 
projectors don't work anymore) and the only reason why I still have to boot Mac 
OS X (there everything works fine).

If i can help with logs or testing something, feel free to tell me.

Another thing: What I can do is force the monitor to some resolution. As
Michael mentioned, the monitor is then switched on, but as xrandr still
shows the monitor as disconnected, one can't really use it.

2012-11-18 Thread Hans-Peter Schadler
Still haven't found a way to get rid of this blinking cursor.

It is not only the case with Unity(tested with Ubuntu 12.10 fresh
install), but also with xfce (tested with Xubuntu 12.10 fresh install,
fglrx install per apt-get install fglrx fglrx-amdcccle, all updates
installed).

2012-11-18 Thread Hans-Peter Schadler
Update (with some kind of solution): 
What I have tried so far:
- Disabling KMS explicitly at grub prompt: no change
- Disabling vesafb: blank screen
- Disabling Plymouth: no change

Another thing I tried right now, was installing the AMD Catalyst 12.11
Beta 8 driver. So far (tested it with 6 or 7 reboots) it seems to work.
Also switching users works again (but there are some quirks if you try
to switch back to the first user again. You have to use ctrl-alt-F7, but
that can be a general problem and may be not related to the fglrx driver
as it seems to switch to the wrong console if one uses Switch User in
the xfce menu).

Long story short: No graphic errors and no visible VT cursor so far.

What one has to do after installing the beta driver, is editing the file 
/etc/ati/signature
After the installation of the beta driver, one gets an unpleasant watermark in 
the lower right corner of the screen which tells that the driver is for testing 
purposes only. To get rid of this, edit the mentioned file and replace the 
content with

9777c589791007f4aeef06c922ad54a2:ae59f5b9572136d99fdd36f0109d358fa643f2bd4a2644d9efbb4fe91a9f6590a145:f612f0b01f2565cd9bd834f8119b309bae11a1ed4a2661c49fdf3fad11986cc4f641f1ba1f2265909a8e34ff1699309bf211a7eb4d7662cd9f8e3faf14986d92f646f1bc

(all in one line)

Hope that helps!

[Bug 869502] Re: Kernel-Panic with 3.0.0.12-generic on asus eee pcs and msi wind (both using rt2800 wifi chipset)

2011-11-01 Thread Hans-Peter Schadler
I can also confirm this bug. It happens with or without wlan active, on
AC and on battery for me. I haven't found out, what triggers this kernel
panic. The only thing i noticed, is that it seems to happen, if I do not
use the Netbook and it just idles in X, but also not sure with this, it
just happens to randomly to say something definite.

I can confirm that (ctrl-c/x and F2). It happens from time to time. I can't 
really figure out why and when this happens.
It seems i trigger the bug more often, when i switch between directories or 
nautilus windows... but not sure, yet.

[Bug 107974] Re: Evolution will not remember exchange password

2009-06-20 Thread Hans-Peter Schadler
It doesn't only happen with Exchange. It also happens using a *dav server. Not 
matter of using a calendar or contacts.
As soon as you open Evoltution and click on calendar, tasks or contacts tab, it 
shows a password prompt.
The annoying thing is, that you can't see any contacts (i.e. when you write a 
new mail) as long as you haven't clicked on the contacts tab and entered the 
password first.
