I get this error when I try to run the Hardware Information program in 8.04 -- this is an upgrade from freshly-updated 7.10, I upgraded by using the alt-CD distro disc, and I have every reason to believe this is a Genuine Ubuntu system and certainly believe the Hardware Information program in the System/Preferences menu is ALSO 'Genuine' Ubuntu
but it crashes on startup, and when the dialog says "Report Problem..." I click that expecting to be presented with a report form, but instead I get ... Problem in hal-device-manager The problem cannot be reported This is not a genuine Ubuntu package the only offered option is "Close" I have no third-party software, it all comes from aptitude, although I do have the universe packages so as to support the Dell Inspiron 1521 graphics and network hardware, but I did not realize this should taint my system such that I am no longer allowed to use Report Problem buttons ;) -- Bug does not report says it's not genuine ubuntu package https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157720 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
