[Bug 1351305] Re: [Toshiba Portege Z35-AST3N01] Touchpad / Trackpoint recognised as generic mouse

2014-08-19 Thread John D Marsden
Summary:

This is fixed in kernel 3.17-rc1.

Detail:

Researching this for my daughter (Ruth Marsden) I've found this issue has been 
known on the kernel mailing lists for sometime.  See 
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg29123.html.
The issue relates to touchpad devices using the ALPS v7 protocol.  These 
devices are reported in this post to have device info as follows:
 Device ID = 0x73, 0x03, 0x0a
 Firmware ID = 0x88, 0xb*, 0x**
Which includes my daughter's Toshiba Z35 which has this Device ID and Firmware 
ID = 0x88, 0xb3, 0x22

A kernel patch has been in production over the last few weeks.  See 
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-input/msg32703.html and related posts.  This 
patch was added on 9th August and can be found in the Ubuntu kernel daily 
builds from then and the weekly build at 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-rc1-utopic/ .
To install this see the Installing upstream kernels section of 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds .

We've tested the 3.17-rc1 kernel on my daughter's Toshiba Z35 laptop and
can confirm that both touchpad and trackpoint devices work.  They are
recognised as an AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad and the touchpad
section now appears in System Settings  Mouse  Touchpad.  In
particular disabling while typing is available and works.

Presumably a kernel with this patch will be released in Ubuntu in due
course.

[Bug 1338063] Re: [Toshiba Portege Z835-ST6N03] Brightness control lost after suspend screen dimmed

2014-08-11 Thread John D Marsden
Workround provided from upstream dialogue -  Thank you Aaron.

See http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpim=140686098023199w=2

In summary:
Switching to use the intel-backlight interface rather than the acpi_video0 
interface makes the controls for brightness work after suspend.  This can be 
done by creating, or adding to, the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the section 
below:

Section Device
Identifier  Intel Graphics
Driver  intel
Option  AccelMethod sna
Option  Backlight intel_backlight
Driver  intel
BusID   PCI:0:2:0
EndSection

2014-07-22 Thread John D Marsden
Christopher, Thank you for your guidance on this issue.  I want to make
sure I report this upstream in the correct way and am unsure of which
upstream list I should be using.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend mentions says Suspend and 
Resume use facilities within your BIOS called ACPI. Should I therefore report 
to the linux-a...@vger.kernel.org list?
Or should I use the linux...@vger.kernel.org list which is mentioned in the 
SUSPEND TO RAM section of 
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/MAINTAINERS 
?
Or, since the bug refers to a Toshiba laptop should I use the 
platform-driver-...@vger.kernel.org list which is mentioned in the TOSHIBA 
ACPI EXTRAS DRIVER section?
Or something else?

I appreciate your help.

In answer to: if you remove the kernel parameter elevator=noop does this 
change anything?
No it does not change anything.  I tried with this kernel parameter removed on 
the latest mainline upstream kernel 3.16-rc4.

As requested, tested on Precise 12.04.0 and 12.04.3 both obtained from
http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/12.04.0/. Used Live CD method.
In both cases the bug as originally reported occurred.

2014-07-10 Thread John D Marsden
In answer to did this problem not occur in a release prior to Trusty?:

I'm sorry, I don't know for sure.  I only noticed the problem the day I
first reported it, however my behaviour regarding shutdowns rather than
suspends has recently changed so that may well be why I noticed it.  My
wife hadn't noticed it on her computer (see mention in comment #6) until
I specifically tested for it.

However in comment #9 above I report testing and getting the same result
with kernel version 3.8.0-31 which must date from when I had Raring
running on my computer.

[Bug 1338063] Re: [Toshiba Portege Z835-ST6N03] Brightness control lost after suspend screen dimmed

2014-07-09 Thread John D Marsden
As requested I followed the steps in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend.

Results are:
1. Information from sticker on computer:
   Manufacurer: Toshiba
   Model: Protege Z835-ST6N03
   Part No: PT224U-01W00C
2. Bios is already upgraded  to latest version 1.80.
3. Booted in mianline upstream kernel 3.16-rc4.  Suspended with pm-trace and 
awakened successfully.
   cat /proc/acpi/wakeup  wakeup result is attached.
4. Resume trace result:
   a) Resume succeeded, though LCD brightness controls fail as originally 
reported.
   b) Result of: dmesg   mesg.txt   will be attached.
   c) Searched dmesg.txt for Magic number and got:
   .
   [0.864274]   Magic number: 6:405:689
   [0.864395] rtc_cmos 00:05: setting system clock to 2014-07-09 
15:41:36 UTC (1404920496)
   .
   d) Searched dmesg.txt for hash match and got no lines matching search.
   e) Not sure whether brightness controls failing counts as graphics related 
issue.
So will attach Xorg.0.log and Xorg.0.log.old just in case.

Installed latest upstream mainline kernel: 3.16.0-031600rc4-generic

Unfortunately this failed to solve the problem.  Brightness control on
systems settings and via function keys works on initial boot but ceases
to work after a suspend, as before.

Thank you for your help.

2014-07-08 Thread John D Marsden
Clarification:

I have gone back to older kernels on my machine to confirm my feeling
that this only started happening recently.  The oldest kernel on my
machine is 3.8.0-31-generic.  The problem also occurs with when booted
with this kernel so my feeling that this was recent is wrong.

I have edited the original bug report to remove my assertion that it had
seemed to have only started recently.


** Description changed:

  Using Ubuntu 14.04.  Recently updated to kernel version Ubuntu
  3.13.0-30.54-generic 3.13.11.2

2014-07-07 Thread John D Marsden
Christopher,  thank you for your advice and my apologies for not
following the protocol of first checking for BIOS updates.

I have now updated the BIOS.  Results of sudo dmidecode -s bios-version  
sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date are:
   Version 1.80  
   04/18/2013
so the update has worked.

Unfortunately the problem still persists as previously described.

Please note the problem also manifests on my wife's Toshiba Protege
Z835-ST8305 which I have also updated to the latest BIOS.  Her computer
is also running Ubuntu 14.04 with kernel version Ubuntu
3.13.0-30.55-generic 3.13.11.2

Thank you for your help.

[Bug 1338063] Re: Brightness control lost after suspend screen dimmed

2014-07-05 Thread John D Marsden
Clarification:

Screen does not always come up dimmed after suspend.  Screen comes up
with setting prior to suspend.

If the computer has gone into suspend itself after being unused for a
certain amount of time it comes up dimmed, even if not deliberately set
to this by the user.  In these circumstances the computer has dimmed the
screen some time prior to going into suspend.

In all cases controls no longer function after suspend as reported in
initial post.

[Bug 1085169] Re: LibreOffice Menus Stop Working even with libreoffice=1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu4 and indicator-appmenu=12.10.3-0ubuntu2.1

2012-12-11 Thread John D Marsden
This bug is also affecting me and my wife.  Running on amd64 laptop with
no special video drivers.  Confirm I am have amd64 versions of
libreoffice-core 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu4 and indicator-appmenu
12.10.3-0ubuntu2.1 installed.

It happens on both my and my wife's computers (same amd64 software
configuration but I have full Libreoffice metapackage while she has just
standard install from quantal upgrade).

How to reproduce the bug:

Use Libre Office Writer for some variable time ranging from a very few minutes 
upwards.
Work using mouse to select a menu item from the menu bar (on the top line in 
the indicator menu area).
Suddenly, for no apparent reason, the menu items stop functioning.  Libreoffice 
can still be controlled using the icons but actions for which no item exists 
cannot be performed.  The HUD display, despite showing a picture of Libreoffice 
writer to the left, also stops working.  It does not give any Libreoffice 
actions in response to typing.  It offers only items from the indicator panel, 
e.g. Skype, Dropbox  Network.

If a second Libreoffice document is opened it does not display the bug.

Work-round:
Close and re-open the file.

Today my wife worked for about five hours on LibreOffice writer and had
the problem five times.  I worked a similar period of time and today
didn't have it at all, though did yesterday.

If there is any tracking software we could run to help track down what
is triggering this please let us know.

[Bug 739184] Re: [Libreoffice] Mnemonics do not work in Unity

2012-11-21 Thread John D Marsden
Still happening for me after the upgrade released to fix bug #1064962
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1064962.
Using a 64-bit system upgraded from Precise to Quantal with all latest
updates installed.

Please release a fix soon as without it all the fancy work to make a HUD
is fruitless for the type of work where being able to stick with the
keyboard is most useful - i.e. office applications.

Any plans to fix the failed amd-64 build in ppa:bjoern-michaelsen
/libreoffice-quantaltest-2012060 so we can help to test it in a 64-bit

[Bug 796245] [NEW] Weather Data for Dhaka, Bangladesh not updating regularly

2011-06-12 Thread John D Marsden
Public bug reported:

The METAR weather feed for Dhaka has been VGZR.  However this feed has
not been reliably transmitting data recently.  (see
http://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/VGZR).  Therefore up to date
weather data has not been showing in the desktop panel applet.

There is a more recent weather feed at VGHS which is at Dhaka Airport
(see http://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/VGHS) and uses the new name
for the airport (i.e. Hazrat Shajahal Intl Airport not Zia Intl
Airport).

As a work-around I have updated the code used by the applet using gconf,
but this update will be lost whenever the information is refreshed from
/usr/share/libgweather/Locations.xml.

I believe you should add an entry for VGHS in the Locations.xml file and
make this the default for Dhaka.

I am still using Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS with libgweather 2.30.0-0ubuntu1 but
I have inspected the Locations file in revision 47 in the Oneiric branch
and it also only has VGZR, not VGHS for Dhaka.

I am also emailing the maintainer of the weather stations list at
http://www.rap.ucar.edu/weather/surface/stations.txt to make the same
point as this is impact many sites delivering weather information from
METAR data.

[Bug 296863] Re: If too many timezone are configured, lower ones are cut off the screen with no way to see them

2010-07-24 Thread John D Marsden
This bug is particularly annoying for users of netbooks and the Ubuntu Netbook 
Edition.  My 600 pixel deep screen cuts off the fourth location listed which is 
very irritating as I work with people in many countries round the world and 
often travel across timezones.
Although I am a newbie, if i knew how, I'd put my hand to fixing it myself as 
this seems to have been stuck in the wishlist for more than two years over in 
gnome-bugs.  Ubuntu Desktop Experience team - can you push this along please?

[Bug 577353] Re: System can not find root device with kernel 2.6.32-22

2010-05-14 Thread John D Marsden
I am experiencing this bug on my wife's Toshiba NB200 netbook, but it is not 
occuring on my identical hardware.  Software environments on the two machines 
are also almost identical:
-  Both started with Karmic UNR as dual boot retaining, but hardly ever using, 
the supplied Windows7 starter edition.
- Both machines were regularly updated automatically through Update Manager, 
usually within twelve hours of each other.
- Both upgraded to Lucid by normal upgrade procedure driven by Update Manager 
over a slow internet connection.
- Both updated from kernel 2.6.32.21 to 2.6.32.22
Main differences are that my machine has more software packages added, and my 
wife has a greater propensity to solve user problems by switching off the power 
and re-booting!

See original report in comment #28 in bug #360378.  Note that simply
choosing to load 2.6.32.21 from Grub was not enough to solve the
problem.  I had to manually copy in an alternative initrd.img file as
explained in comment #28 in bug #360378.

I'm still a newbie in Ubuntu so if you would like logs and configuration
files posted, or upstream packages tested, please give me step by step
advice or point me to an appropriate how to page.

[Bug 360378] Re: Gave up waiting for root device after upgrade then busybox console

2010-05-14 Thread John D Marsden
I had the same problem on my wife's Netbook (Toshiba NB200) after
upgrading from Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 to Lucid using the standard
upgrade procedure.

I tried the extending the rootdelay altering the Grub instructions to
look for /dev/sdax instead of the UUID but neither worked.

However after downloading a Lucid Ubuntu Netbook Edition .iso image and
booting from a USB drive Rick Silva's suggestion at comment #26 above
worked. I copied initrd.img-2.6.32-21-generic from the RAM disk once I'd
booted off the USB drive.

I can now boot from 2.6.32.21 on my hard drive.  HOWEVER I cannot boot
from 2.6.32.22-generic which was installed a few days ago by the Update
Manager.  Using synaptic to remove 2.6.32.22-generic and re-install it
does not solve the problem.

The initrd.img I copied from the USB boot is about 12.9 Mb but the
initrd.img files on my hard disk are about 7.6 Mb.

What is the underlying problem here?  Is there something else about my
upgrade to Lucid which is resulting in initrd.img files being damaged,
or incorrectly constructed?  How might I diagnose what is going on?

I'm not expert in Linux boot time processes, but I'm happy to do my bit
to diagnose the underlying issue.  I'd like to see this fixed properly
so Ubuntu genuinely can be used by ordinary humans, like my wife, not
just people who roam technical websites.
