Re: [Bug 215636] Re: Hardware Information crashes on startup
sorry, I can't try the upgrade - the ATI Radeon chipset support has been dropped and the free driver doesn't have even enough performance for Firefox :( -- I'm stranded on hardy so long as I use this laptop.

Status in “hwinfo” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: In Hardy The Hardware Information tool crashes on startup. The package (I think) is hal-device-manager. Dist: maxlittlem...@hector-luft:~$ lsb_release -rd Description:Ubuntu hardy (development branch) Release:8.04 When I try to launch Hardware Information from System Preferences , I get a brief flash of a window, then it disappears. When I press the ~report the bug buton, I get a crash report dialogue saying: The problem cannot be reported: You have some obsolete package versions installed. Please upgrade the following packages and check if the problem still occurs: libpam-modules, libpam0g, udev, libpam-runtime, libgnomeui-common, libpango1.0-common, xbase-clients, x11-common, python-gobject, initramfs-tools, libsasl2-2, libsasl2-modules, libvolume-id0, libxft2, libpango1.0-0, libgnomeui-0 (I did have dual boot ubuntustudio and generic) This is after I have upgraded from gutsy and rebooted several times. The problem wasn't there when I first rebooted after the upgrade (I know because I used Hardware Information to check some things) but it appeared a day after I upgraded. (???) The actual bug in my eyes is that Hardware Information gives a crash screen instead of displaying whatever it can - that the UI dies when a problem is encountered. The other bug which I don't know where to report is that after upgrading, I need to download an additional ~200MB to fix this bug - rather than _all_ of my system being upgraded. This may well be an upgrade bug? -- Hardware Information crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215636 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Since it's been a very long time since any additional info was added to this bug, I'm just checking to see if this is still an issue, and find out what additional work should be done on this bug. -- Hardware Information crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215636 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I upgraded from the alt-CD downloaded after the formal release of 8.04, and I get the same behaviour except that I cannot see the Report Problem information (see bug #157720) as hal-device-manager thinks I have an evil corrupted hacked bootleg Ubuntu (the exact wording is not a genuine Ubuntu if this is true, then Ubuntu themselves are distributing it off their mirror sites (ok, it was the Canadian mirror, so it's not completely tamper-proof, but still seems very highly unlikely) ** Attachment added: hwinfo http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14690524/hwinfo -- Hardware Information crashes on startup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215636 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

You were running a pre-release version. They are fast moving and have a lot of upgrades.
