I had an up-to-date Ubuntu 11.10 workstation. I recently received an update that required a 'restart' (aka reboot - new kernel). I put off the reboot while working away - for a week or so. So, as has happened each time I've had to 'restart' (aka reboot for a new kernel), I once again watched in

2011-10-18 Thread Steffen H.
On a totally up-to-date Ubuntu 11.04 system, sudo apt-get install phpunit still installs a completely useless phpunit package - as reported about a year ago above. How does this sort of package pass even the most cursory of QA checks? This precedent is a bit disturbing. I imagine I just don't

I watched 8 Gb of RAM fill ... and bring my machine to a crawl/halt. I killed almost everything ... and then watched in horror as gvsfd grew in virtual memory size from 1.4 Gb to 2.2 Gb in just a few minutes. It seems to go up by 100Mg every minute. As I write this, it is stil growing.

2009-11-16 Thread Steffen H.
Not only is the (Ubuntu supplied) modem-manager package inappropriately 'squatting' on device (i.e. /dev/ttyACM0) that it does *not* recognize as ADSL modems (cuz they often are just ordinary modems - like my USR Model 5367 or your modem), but, in addition, both GNOME- PPP (GUI) and wvdial

Oh ... and more breakage on permissions for /usr/sbin/pppd. That is root user or dip group only. So you'll surely want your user account in the dip group. I think I pulled this off using System -- Users Groups and then ticking off the 'Connect to Internet using a modem' (and Send Receive

I've posted quite a number of tips that might help with this over at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/modemmanager/+bug/482971. I've managed to get pppd going (and confirmed operation via ping via both DNS and direct IP addresses) ... but for me, I'm still watching my pppd fight with

Ohhh ... so maybe modem-manager is what the Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade did to break my ppp dial up (and FAXing ... see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/469881). I've been rebooting in the hopes that if I did nothing, there'd be nothing making /dev/ttyACM0 busy. No joy! But the nasty

Post Ubuntu 9.10 upgrade, another bug suggests that a modem-manager process is the one that is making /dev/ttyUSB* (and/or) /dev/ttyACM0 'busy'. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/modemmanager/+bug/482971. -- gnome-ppp fails under 9.10, works under 9.04

I bummed to hear you've had to revert back to 9.04.  I've found that using the synaptic package manager (System -- Administration -- Synaptic Package Manager) one *can* mark the modem manager for complete removal (just search on 'modem').  Then, a reboot will eliminate the

Add me to the stymied list of victims! My USR Model 5637 does not work either. For me, the only sign that the modem even exists is at the USB (hardware) level. ~$ uname -a Linux gandalf 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:05:01 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux ~$ lsusb Bus 004 Device
