[Bug 1396379] Re: installer uses first EFI system partition found even when directed otherwise
I have lost about a month of my time with this bug!! I thought I was doing something wrong with UUID or GPT vs MBR or ZFS or ...

[Bug 1404990] [NEW] system monitor wrong if cpu offline
Public bug reported: I observe two faults in the Ubuntu 14.04LTS system monitor: 1. If a CPU is marked offline, the system monitor does not report any higher-numbered online CPUs. E.g.,: a. Run system monitor - it reports 8 CPUs. b. Mark CPU 3 offline, via: echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/online c. Restart system monitor: It now reports only 3 CPUS (1,2,3). The system monitor display not change immediately, so I suspect the immediate failure is caused at system monitor initialization, presumably because it assumes that the first offline CPU indicates the end of CPUs for this system. Which is not true, of course. 2. In the system monitor display, CPUs are numbered 1...N, for an N-CPU system. This is incorrect, because CPUs are numbered from 0, not 1. This can lead to confusion when looking at what particular processors are doing. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1404990 Title: system monitor wrong if cpu offline To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1404990/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 814796] Re: Character does not scale properly as font size changes
Attached is a screen shot from Open Office. In that, you can see that the diamond character displays correctly at different sizes (i.e., slightly larger than the iota and rho) when using Times New Roman, but displays much smaller when using the fixed-width font. >From this example, I see that the problem does not really lie in scaling (because the fixed-width font also scales, as we can see when looking at 12pt and 40pt), BUT the character is being rendered considerably smaller than it "should" be.

This is the first good news I've heard on this topic in many moons!

The crash is likely due to the old fglrx driver, rather than to the linux kernel. then, I'll give the new fglrx code a try. Otherwise, it'll have to wait until I finish my current project and benchmarks... Or, if someone can assure me that the kernel/X upgrades are a definite prerequisite for the fix, then I'll at least know where I'm at with this. Thanks.

Perhaps we can convince the MyLightWorksFine people at AMD that there are virtues to having multiple users signed on at once. It doesn't look like we'll get it fixed, otherwise. 1. I use multiple users for security reasons - I have development accounts that have access to source code, and I try to keep those accounts distinct from my generic email/web account, etc. Part of this has to do with keeping my data out of client areas, and vice versa. It's not security in the secrecy sense, but in the safety of different accounts when my fumblefingers err, just as we avoid running as root. 2. Hede uses multiple users to get full-screen access and access to normal desktop without logging in/out. Very convenient.

[Bug 118605] Re: [fglrx] freezes upon Logout or Switch user [patch]
I don't particularly care about graphics performance, but definitely DO want (1) switch-user to work properly (which, at present, crashes my system), and (2) dual-head support to work properly. So, I may not need the apparently useless drivers from AMD/ATI, if they are the root of the problem, IF I can get the above features to work properly without fglrx. Someone claimed that someone from ATI/AMD said that "nobody uses switch-user, so we don't have to fix it". This statement is rumor, so I don't want to beat up on ATI/AMD (perhaps), but let me assure you that the need to run concurrent users with different permissions is very critical to my work. If NVIDIA can support the above two requirements, I would switch to them in an instant, IFF they work. My past experience with NVIDIA does not give me hope here. \begin{rant} If ATI/AMD would just publish their device (GPU) specifications, we could do the open-source thing and life would be good. At present, I have NO good suppliers of GPUs to go to. This is as bad as the mainframe world of the 1970s, when IBM refused to publish their I/O channel specifications, in the hope of keeping their monopoly. Perhaps someone should sue ATI/AMD and NVIDIA to get them to publish their interface specifications. \end{rant} BTW, these problems, from what I've seen, may not be specific to ATI/AMD or NVIDIA, because it seems to appear with both GPUs. If so, my apologies to the appropriate vendor(s). If not, will you people please get off your butt and fix things? Thanks.

Me, too! I'm running an ATI HD 3450, with Xinerama enabled and apparently working properly.

This is on two up-to-date Hardy systems, both with Nvidia chipsets on ASUS motherboards, with SATA hard drives. One system absolutely refused to boot after the Hardy upgrade. This did not make me very happy. The other system stalls in the initramfs world about 2 times out of 3 on a power-on or reboot sequence.

I'm having similar problems on two ASUS boxes, both with SATA drives attached. One of them, an ASUS V8M-MX/S, refuses to boot AT ALL after the Hardy upgrade. It always drops into the initramfs screen. Adding all_generic_ide "fixed" it, in the sense that it now boots, but I have no idea if this has resulted in degraded performance, etc. The other box, also an ASUS, but I don't have the MB name handy, is an Opteron-based board. It frequently requires several hard boots (reset button) to boot after power-up, stopping in the same screen as above. Also, reboots from the shutdown menu frequently stall the same way. I have NOT tried all_generic_ide, but will do that and see if it helps. This is irritating, and I'd like to see it fixed. If someone has fault-isolation suggestions (NOT workarounds - I want this fixed properly), I'm happy to try them, within reason.

[Bug 172563] Re: Ubuntu often stops when starting up
I have the same problem. The system stalls at during reboot at "waiting for root file system", and eventually (a minute or two later) drops into "initramfs"(?). This often happens when the system does a soft reboot. After power-on, I usually have to reboot 2 or 3 times before it takes off. Looks like race condition of some sort. I'm running on a two-core Opteron, with latest Hardy fixes as of 2008-05-04. Let me know what help I can provide here, as the failure is relatively frequent, although I do not know how to reproduce it at will. -- Ubuntu often stops when starting up https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172563 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This, and several other gnome-ly failures, no longer occur on my system after I installed recent updates over the weekend. So, that's good news, and we can close this bug. Thanks! My system still fails to initialize properly unless I run gnome in failsafe mode: (the Application/Places/System...) buttons do not appear in "normal" gnome mode, and gnome grumps at startup if I enable assistive technologies.

[Bug 210226] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in rw_screen_list_outputs()
Still fails as of 2008-04-06, with this day's upgrades. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a Linux rattler 2.6.24-15-generic #1 SMP Fri Apr 4 03:10:59 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux I've observed the following: 1. Some upgrades disable the nvidia graphics driver, dropping me back into 680x480 land. The way I fixed these was to use the command-line apt-get to reinstall the nvidia drivers again, then do (I think...) nvidia-install again, then configure them. 2. The system doesn't properly sense Samsung SyncMaster 191T settings, although it is claimed to be Plug'n'Play. I'm confused at the moment about the LG 226WA, but I think it does better. At any rate, some updates seem to lose either monitor characteristics, or nvidia driver, or both. 3. Built-in table for above monitors don't seem to exist. I have to pick generic TFT size setting, but that looks to work ok, despite being a nuisance. [The following is probably unrelated bug, but just in case it's relevant...]: 4. After soft reboot (from shutdown menu), and sometimes on system power-on, the system never completes booting. It drops into initramfs(?) after thinking over the root file system stuff during bootup. It says "ata_id[4091] main: HDIO_GET_ID... {can't read my handwriting...} failed for /dev/.tmp/8-16. Hard reboot via reset button has fixed this boot failure, thus far. -- gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV in rw_screen_list_outputs() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/210226 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

[Bug 164172] Re: Print jobs are not working with gnome applications
I just upgraded CUPS on two 7.10 systems yesterday, then tried to network the Lexmark Optra E310 and an Epson Stylus Photo 800, one on each system. The Epson box's system Gives the "problem connecting to the CUPS server" error message when I open the System->Administration->Printing window. The other box appears to have several faults, which may or may not be related: The Lexmark box merely evaporates any output directed at it from evince. However, I CAN print a test OK from the System->Administration->Printing window. Also, printing via lpr works OK. I tried converting the PDF file I wanted to print into PostScript using evince "output to file", but that results in a PostScript file that kills the printer with blinky yellow error lights.

[Bug 110804] Re: Lexmark Optra E310 not work in edgy, feisty
I'm running, or trying to run, an Optra E310 in 7.10 (I think). I had selected the Optra E310 driver. No go: dies with the "inode permission" bug. I tried stopping apparmor, with no better luck. I then tried "generic PostScript foomatic" driver: no go. I then tried "generic PostScript" (non-foomatic) driver. This sort of works, but a fair number of documents make the printer light blink for a few seconds, then the yellow printer error light blanks, then the rest is silence. The job is then marked as "completed". I would guess this means the generic PS driver is buggy. On one of the above, dmesg gets: [17972.993541] lp0: ECP mode messages. Not sure if that's good or bad.
