[Bug 226072] Re: vdr-plugin-burn depends on non-existent packages

2009-01-31 Thread TEN
This bug seems to have been sitting unresolved for far too long:

vdr-genindex as per the first follow-ups should simply be brought back
into Hardy as well (this rather than Intrepid being the LTS we have to
live with until 2011!).

vdrsync (which has stopped working reliably at least with DVB streams
broadcast by some major German-language stations for several years
anyway) is easily replaced with project-x, which is part of
"Miscellaneous - Graphical (universe)" in a version that can also be
invoked as a command-line utility without its GUI (following the efforts
of http://forum.dvbtechnics.info/showthread.php?t=1427 and http://www
.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=48264).

Is there any reason still not to fix these dependencies for the LTS?!

A year's wait later, please do put this bug's importance a notch up now.

Unnecessarily lacking the ability to author DVDs (the differentiating
factor where it has the edge over most commercial DVRs) has become a
major showstopper for the VDR on Ubuntu...

Let alone could a user be expected to figure out how to build this thing
(see http://www.e-tobi.net/blog/2008/12/02/vdr-plugin-survey-2008
-results-part-2 for its importance and level of difficulty), and yet
here is the walkthrough to the best of my knowledge (YMMV, not replayed
yet to fully exclude even potential minor inaccuracies) for you to build
the final package(s).

Many thanks to #vdr-portal (in particular wilderigel) at www.vdr-
portal.de for their help!

apt-get build-dep vdr-plugin-burn
apt-get source vdr-plugin-burn
cd vdr-plugin-burn-0.1.0~pre21
nano -w debian/control
 Replace projectx with project-x
dpkg-buildpackage
cd ..
 While backport request https://bugs.launchpad.net/hardy-backports/+bug/339303

wget 
http://www.ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/ubuntu/pool/universe/v/vdr-genindex/vdr-genindex_0.1.3-1ubuntu1_i386.deb

2009-03-15 Thread TEN
Further pieces of information to spare users some headaches:

Before dpkg-buildpackage is invoked,
nano -w vdr-plugin-burn-0.1.0~pre21/setup.c
to replace demuxtype_vdrsync with demuxtype_projectx in line 89.

Before the final /etc/init.d/vdr, unless there is a writeable /video/iso on 
your system,
nano -w /etc/vdr/plugins/plugin.burn.conf to make sure it exists and has the 
--isodir=/mnt/your/video/iso set (commented out with typos in original).

Also before the final /etc/init.d/vdr, 
mkdir a directory for each background you are going to require in 
/var/lib/vdr/plugins/burn/skins,
cd into each respective directory and add the respective backgrounds e.g. from 
http://vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Vorlagen_(burn-plugin)#Vorlagen like
wget -O menu-bg.png http://vdr-wiki.de/wiki/images/c/cc/Burn-template-007-1.png
to the extent permissible in your jurisdiction.

For debugging, the logs once activated in the plugin setup will appear
in /var/lib/video.00/vdr-burn.*

[Bug 226072] Re: vdr-plugin-burn depends on non-existent packages

2009-03-15 Thread TEN
The correct setting in/etc/vdr/plugins/plugin.burn.conf is
--iso=/mnt/your/video/iso

chown vdr:vdr is needed on this directory as well as every subdirectory
and menu-bg.png below /var/lib/vdr/plugins/burn/skins, as is usermod -a
-G cdrom vdr to avoid the errors as in http://de.pastebin.ca/1361397 due
to the bug documented above on 2008-08-15:

vdr-plugin-burn (0.1.0~pre21-28) experimental; urgency=low

  * Now really use vdr-groups.sh to add vdr to the group 'cdrom'

And this is it. :-) Applying everything from the last three posts I can
report the present bug can be fixed this way for Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Hardy
Heron.

Further recommendations are setting NICE for anything but the actual DVD 
writing,
and to avoid the pipe+tee method of "burning on the fly" (cf. 
http://vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?postid=452471#post452471) in favor of 
writing the image first, then only after ISO completion burning the DVD from it.

Remaining issues in the menu/title generation that will presumably have
to be fixed from upstream are a text size issue overwriting the right-
hand borders (regression to what had already been fixed in burn-0.0.10,
cf. http://vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?postid=452730#post452730), and
an apparent UTF-8 incompatibility causing German diacritics (Umlaut, sz
ligature) to be rendered improperly.

2009-03-17 Thread TEN
With the IRC-granted blessings of the original author of this VDR plugin
(wishing to be known as lordjaxom),

please find enclosed my diffs to (hopefully) patch this package into
usability on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Hardy Heron,

with a standard disclaimer of "at your own risk, AFAIK, IMHO, HTH,
YMMV..."

fixing, inter alia, two dependencies (genisoimage and project-x; a third
needs to be corrected by including vdr-genindex from the Intrepid
repository) and the incorrect output including a UTF-8 incompatibility
contributing to it.

A package update should also determine (or otherwise prompt for) the ISO
path, as well as take care of accepting user vdr into the cdrom group,
and setting the chown vdr:vdr (-R) in the appropriate places as outlined
above (ISO path and /var/lib/vdr/plugins/burn/skins).

[Bug 323302] Re: Wrong UDMA mode due to error in 40/80 wire cable detection

2009-04-01 Thread TEN
Seeing this too on Hardy (hasn't the fix ever been backported?); a
sudden flurry of coasters from a DVD recorder (still writing CDs without
issue) that had worked well under Feisty (and XP, sigh) took me here.

To my surprise (as for everyone else in this thread, contrary to the
dmesg output below), what I found inside the box was an 80-pin
connection for both adapters.

In my understanding, the legacy LS-120 (high-capacity floppy disk drive)
should not cause the whole bus to be slowed down either - nor should the
DVD recorder have any problems even at UDMA/33 even if this actually
were "just" a 40-pin cable.

The wrapping code has been rewritten to fix the garbled output (DVD

vdr-plugin-burn can be made installable and usable this way, but I will

upon this code and turn the tarball into a debianized update package
taking into account all of the dependencies, groups and ownerships

[Bug 250107] Re: vdr should start after lcd

2009-04-02 Thread TEN
LIRC also needs to be started before VDR (otherwise there would be no remote 
control after reboot),
so the full workaround should read:

cd /etc/rc2.d
mv S51lirc S20lirc
mv S60LCDd S21LCDd
mv S20vdr S22vdr
mv S20vdradmin-am S23vdradmin-am

LIRC should also be started before LCDd as it can act as an input driver
to the latter (cf. /etc/LCDd.conf).

Not sure if anything else in /etc/rc.2/S20* might also use LIRC.

Maintainers please update to ensure correct startup order "out of the
box".

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gcc-4.0

Most Makefiles etc. expect to find at least /usr/bin/gcc - the gcc
packages, however, 4.0 and 3.4 at least in Xubuntu LTS 6.06.1, do not
set any such symlink, so the user and/or make will have to figure out
the precise path and version number.

[Bug 59655] Xubuntu LTS 6.06 installer allows root as default user, resulting in unusable installation

2006-09-09 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

root can be entered as the initial user name in the default Xubuntu 6.06 
installer without warning.
This might even be a natural choice for users from other distributions (where 
setting up root first is the standard/recommended procedure).
On (X)Ubuntu, where being root is deprecated, though, it will result in a setup 
that is wrecked from the outset, of course (with settings/privileges being 
wrong all over the place).
Have not tried yet whether this issue still exists on Xubuntu LTS 6.06.1 as 
well.

2006-09-10 Thread TEN
Actually, no. Pardon my insistence... ;-)

Testcase:

Boot xubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso (Live CD will do)

apt-get install gcc-4.0
which gcc

...finds none. Same for gcc-3.4 (and probably others I haven't yet
tried).

apt-get install gcc
which gcc

...only now there it is.

So unless one is supposed to install the gcc package in addition to the
specific one of any particular version (which then couldn't exactly be
called intuitive or clearly documented), I'd say we do have a legitimate
report (just for a missing symlink, but then again that's all it ever
claimed).

[Bug 60931] Printing only works for PostScript files or CUPS' own test page

2006-09-17 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

System is Xubuntu 6.06.1 LTS.
Printer is a Brother HL-1650 (BRScript3, i.e. probably PostScript in all but 
name) over Samba (this does not seem to be an smbspool issue though).
CUPS can print its own test page.
lp SomePostScriptFile.ps works as well - but plaintext files 
(http://phpfi.com/153896 takes some script code as an example) and attempts to 
print from applications (e.g. acroread, GIMP) result in stopped jobs.

BTW while the user might be expected to find http://localhost:631 (after some 
googling), it's been tricky enough to have to figure out
sudo adduser cupsys shadow
/etc/init.d/cupsys restart
to even be allowed to add a printer. This should probably be considered 
automagically in future versions...

I assume something goes wrong in foomatic's attempt to convert into
PostScript and found the ways to make it write a debug log, but the
parameters it is called with are a mystery to me (and apparently to
itself either, judging from the output linked above) - so I can't tell
yet whether it fails because of wrong parameters, missing input or
insufficient rights to write its output.

Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'cups';
however, that package was not published in Ubuntu.

[Bug 60931] Re: Printing only works for PostScript files or CUPS' own test page

2006-09-17 Thread TEN
The suspects - and indeed they've tried to escape:
" vs. '

In /tmp/foomatic-rip.log we have:

renderer command: level=0; /usr/bin/printf "%%!\n \n<>setpagedevice\n"; if [ $level -gt 0 ]; then if [ $level -lt 99 ];
then level=" -dLanguageLevel=$level"; else level=""; fi; gs -q
-dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pswrite$level -sOutputFile=-
-; else cat; fi

This is from line 3567 of /usr/bin/foomatic-rip which tries to run:
system("$commandline");

See the nested, unescaped double quotes colliding...

Now even on the plain shell prompt we can only expect garbled output from
:~$ /usr/bin/printf "%%!\n \n<>setpagedevice\n"
bash: !\n: event not found

...and nor does the following look right to me:
else cat; fi

Now if someone more familiar with that code could figure out where the 
/usr/bin/printf statements used in the invocations of rendercmd and the 
subsequent cmd and currentcmd are constructed, and if they are what makes the 
script fail 
[at least it terminates without error, albeit without proper results as well, 
as soon as the above is changed to system('$commandline');],
I'd suggest replacing them with single quotes - rather than doing the same only 
for the system() calls which would make CUPS believe the jobs had been 
completed while producing empty output.

[Bug 109255] Alpine alpha outdated by several generations

2007-09-17 Thread TEN
The latest one available from Email (universe) is 0-82+dfsg-5 (same for
alpine-pico and pilot), which has issues according to reports filed for
this package.

As per http://www.washington.edu/alpine/, there have been many improved
releases since:

Aug 31, 2007 - Alpine 0. is released to the Alpine alpha testers.
Jun 28, 2007 - Alpine 0.999 is released to the Alpine alpha testers.
May 02, 2007 - Alpine 0.99 is released to the Alpine alpha testers.
Mar 30, 2007 - Alpine 0.98 is released to the Alpine alpha testers.
Mar 02, 2007 - Alpine 0.83 is released to the Alpine alpha testers.
Jan 25, 2007 - Alpine 0.82 is released to the Alpine alpha testers.

For keeping it up to date, there are more reasons than this being even
Linus Torvalds' MUA of choice according to
http://apcmag.com/7017/linus_torvalds_talks_future_of_linux_page_3 - but
this might trigger some extra interest&incentive nonetheless. ;-)

2008-03-14 Thread TEN
As has been concluded on irc://irc.freenode.net/#samba-os2, Samba
3.0.28a will not have fixed "I/O errors on access to SMB shares of OS/2.

[Bug 60931] Re: Printing only works for PostScript files or CUPS' own test page

2008-03-14 Thread TEN
According to testing of smbclient print commands against several OS/2
systems (conducted through irc://irc.freenode.net/#samba-os2), larger
jobs will be broken in at an (erroneous) upper size limit of 73 to 126kB
(the precise figure is apparently machine-dependent).

If one is lucky, the printer will recognize and discard the larger jobs
as incomplete (rather than wasting paper on them).

As the OS/2 printer queue may be advised to hold rather than print
incoming jobs, these can be copied back from D:\SPOOL\MyPSprtr\*.SPL and
compared against the original jobs e.g. using diff (-u) to reproduce the
effects of this bug (which is presumably located within Samba).

It is (presumably depending on the job size) and the above "absolution"
for Samba was premature, as some PS files will print through smbclient
at least, while most others won't.

The Samba part of the issue probably ought to be addressed in #samba-
technical and #samba-os2 on the FreeNode.net IRC as well...

[Bug 112839] Re: I/O error on access to SMB shares of OS/2 Warp 4 host mounted in Ubuntu 7.04

2008-03-07 Thread TEN
There is a tricky sequence of mostly undocumented steps to follow even for 
mount.cifs to make it work,
which has now been figured out thanks to several helpful experts on 
irc://irc.freenode.net/#samba-technical and irc://irc.freenode.net/#samba-os2.

One has to add several (comma-separated) parameters with -o to
mount.cifs (with neither of them in its man page):

1. servernetbiosname=MYHOST, shorthand for which is servern=MYHOST
This will work around the 
mount error 112 = Host is down
caused by mount.cifs asking for a wildcard *SMBSERVER instead, which query is 
not answered by older systems such as OS/2 Warp 4 or Windows at least up to 
Windows 98 Second Edition.

This "successfully" takes you to a
mount error 95 = Operation not supported
to remedy which the next step is to add:

2. sec=lanman
This fails with a
mount error 22 = Invalid argument
because the cifs.ko module need to be rebuilt with the following uncommented in 
the kernel .config:
CONFIG_CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH

Having to install the kernel sources and recompile means this is
feasible only for the most enterprising users, and has taken years to
sort out even with eminent experts subscribed to the upstream bug (in
which further aspects that are not distribution-specific shall be
addressed at https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1353).

To avoid such issues preventing connectivity with many systems that are
otherwise still perfectly usable (and in widespread use) these days,
Ubuntu kernels ought to come with the above option enabled unless there
are compelling reasons making it inevitable for it to remain turned off.

[Bug 243734] [NEW] Distorted video (and chopped audio) using xawtv etc. despite "v4l-conf had some trouble"

2008-06-28 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-v4l

Video from analog TV channels is shown distorted by black bars.
DVB video (digital TV) has block artefacts and chopped audio (the latter even 
occurs on DVB radio channels) whenever accessed by v4l (presumably upgraded to 
v4l2 in Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron").
The issue occurs in xawtv (output reproduced below) but can also be 
demonstrated in other applications such as the Ekiga VoIP client (formerly 
known as GnomeMeeting) when configured to use the same device as its video feed.

The audio distortion disappears as soon as the video display is closed
with the source left running.

This as well as the fact that the same hardware performs just fine under
a legacy Ubuntu 7.04 installed in parallel demonstrates that bad signal
(i.e. weak TV reception leading to UNCorrectable errors) cannot possibly
be the cause of these issues, also the symptoms may look similar at
first glance.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/230882 may be
related.

mplayer and xine have no trouble playing back the same streams through
other methods, such as streamed over http by a local VDR (a Linux
"killer app" which is otherwise rendered unusable by this and a related
issue, a conflict of a buggy budget_av kernel module, cf.
http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/log/19964051c5f1/linux/drivers/media/dvb
/dvb-core/dvb_ca_en50221.c, somehow conflicting with the serial port
handling and hence driving system load through the root, cf. http://vdr-

The first image appended to the original report shows distortion in
analog TV shown by xawtv.

N.B. the bars may also be light and flickering in analog TV, as shown in
the attachment to this comment.

Below are the line artefacts appearing on DVB received on the card also
used for playback through v4l(2).

N.B. signal reception issues would cause block artefacts instead.

Finally, the block artifacts appearing despite fine reception when the
video is transferred from the receiving card to the one providing the
menu overlay and playback source for xawtv (et al.).

This is the only scenario where http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-
dvb/log/19964051c5f1/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_ca_en50221.c
might contribute to the symptoms, also its bug is likely to have been
present in the version used under Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn" already, and
didn't stop either xawtv or VDR from working fine there.

Package is still not installable.

The default demultiplexer should be projectx rather than vdrsync anyway,
as the latter seems more likely to stop when encountering issues with
less-than-perfect (but playable) DVB streams.

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-v4l
  
  Video from analog TV channels is shown distorted by black bars.
  DVB video (digital TV) has block artefacts and chopped audio (the latter even 
occurs on DVB radio channels) whenever accessed by v4l (presumably upgraded to 
v4l2 in Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron").
  The issue occurs in xawtv (output reproduced below) but can also be 
demonstrated in other applications such as the Ekiga VoIP client (formerly 
known as GnomeMeeting) when configured to use the same device as its video feed.
  
  The audio distortion disappears as soon as the video display is closed
  with the source left running.
  
  This as well as the fact that the same hardware performs just fine under
  a legacy Ubuntu 7.04 installed in parallel demonstrates that bad signal
  (i.e. weak TV reception leading to UNCorrectable errors) cannot possibly
  be the cause of these issues, also the symptoms may look similar at
  first glance.
  
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/230882 may be

[Bug 245439] [NEW] Diacritic characters garbled in vdradmin-am (presumably an UTF-8 issue)

2008-07-04 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vdradmin-am

Special characters (such as Umlaut symbols in German) are displayed
garbled thoughout vdradmin-am, e.g. in the program schedules accessible
through the Channels button at http://localhost:8001, or in the
abstracts of recorded shows.

For instance, the ü entity ü becomes ü, the ß lowercase
double-s ligature ß becomes ß.

These texts saved from EPG data are the basis for creating the menu
structures when browsing recordings (typically by a user in a living-
room environment without a full keyboard to correct them) and/or
converting them to DVD, inevitably propagating the corrupted characters.
This issue (presumably one of UTF-8 support) should be fixed ASAP.

Moreover, vdradmind will currently be disabled following installation,
requiring the user to find (without notice) and manually edit
/etc/default/vdradmin-am to ENABLED="1". No indication is given as to
the URL for the web interface either.

[Bug 250107] Re: VDR won't autostart on boot as ENABLED=1 in /etc/default/vdr is ignored

2008-08-03 Thread TEN
A few updates and reboots later, it looks like ENABLED=1 is actually
honored, but VDR exits due to (per /var/log/messages):

vdr: connection to LCDd at localhost:13666 failed.
runvdr: stopping after fatal fail (sock_connect: connect failed: Connection 
refused)

I.e. when installing vdr-plugin-lcdproc, it has to be made sure that an
init dependency (cf. http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts &
http://user.skolelinux.no/~pere/mypapers/200706-bootseq/200706-bootseq.html)
is created (or that the scripts are otherwise appropriately modified,
e.g. by a respective handling through Upstart in /etc/events.d, cf.
http://upstart.ubuntu.com/), causing /etc/init.d/vdr not to be run
before /etc/init.d/LCDd has successfully been started.

Worryingly, there is also this error on every start of VDR (even if
successful):

[Bug 250107] Re: VDR won't autostart on boot as ENABLED=1 in /etc/default/vdr is ignored

2008-08-04 Thread TEN
Neither of the following additions to /etc/init.d/vdr has had any effect
(i.e. VDR is still too early for LCDd to have come up on reboot, and
will exit for that reason):

# Required-Start:$all
# Should-Start:  $local_fs $remote_fs lcdd

Not sure if (after making changes) anything has to be invoked
specifically to parse the INIT INFO blocks prior to reboot.


Moreover, VDR will also have issues when starting as the order of DVB cards is 
random (i.e. intermittently changing between reboots) unless 
/etc/modprobe.d/dvb is appended as follows:

install dvb-ttpci /sbin/modprobe budget-av; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-
install dvb-ttpci


To avoid buffer underruns while v4l(2) issues persist (cf. 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-v4l/+bug/243734) , 
the following setting to maximum value should also be added to 
/etc/modprobe.conf.local:

[Bug 239938] [NEW] Update disables lircd.conf (i.e. the remote control) without appropriate notice

2008-06-14 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: lirc

A package update apparently distributed on or around 2008-06-11 renames
/etc/lirc/lircd.conf to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.dpkg-old - causing the
remote to fail due to having its configuration overwritten with a file
containing only these comment lines:

#This configuration has been automatically generated via
#the Ubuntu LIRC package maintainer scripts.
#
#It includes the default configuration for the remote and/or
#transmitter that you have selected during package installation.
#
#Feel free to add any custom remotes to the configuration
#via additional include directives or below the existing
#Ubuntu include directives from your selected remote and/or
#transmitter.

#No default remote configuration was included for Home-brew (16x50 UART 
compatible serial port)
#You will need to include your own custom configuration for
#this remote, and file a bug at 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lirc/+filebug

...which I hereby do, in spite of this appearing to be an omission in
the package installer rather than a bug in the source as such.

This behaviour might cause users some headaches as not everyone is
supposed to know that this is easily remedied by testing the remote
(typically requiring the physical presence of "root" to push its buttons
though) and rolling back the changes by performing e.g. the following
steps:

irw
cd /etc/lirc
/etc/init.d/lirc stop
cp lircd.conf lircd.conf.dpkg_2008-06-11
cp lircd.conf.dpkg-old lircd.conf
/etc/init.d/lirc start
irw

Given that it is not known whether /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.dpkg-old will be
preserved over multiple generations of updates, the automatic
replacement of /etc/lirc/lircd.conf without warning might lead to final
loss of one's configuration even if submitted for inclusion with
http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/, as no updates have been made
available on the latter since 2008-03-02.

There is still an issue in getting full resolution with nvidia-glx in

/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/+bug/94671 seem related as regards the
resolution, but given the number of bugs reported regarding nvidia-glx,
I am not sure which are the "primary" ones being worked on.

The DPMS entry does not seem to be present by default, preventing the
monitor from ever going into power-saving mode, hence I also list it
among the required additions, while not knowing exactly where to report
its absence as a separate issue.

[Bug 63488] Re: Errors in both /etc/init.d/LCDd script and /etc/LCDd.conf that break lcdproc

2007-05-28 Thread TEN
lcdproc-0.5.1-3-feisty in Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn" still has this same
problem (unsurprisingly, for its make process as described in the
INSTALL file and for Ubuntu e.g. by http://vdr-
portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=52517&page=3#post614045 actually
builds it this way - and moreover it should be replaced by lcdproc-0.5.2
for the reasons stated there and at
http://www.lcdproc.org/download.php3, i.e. notably malfunctions of
serialVFD).

[Bug 115227] Only sudo ajaxterm rather than default /etc/init.d allows logins

2007-05-17 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ajaxterm

First things first, the full title of this bug is:
ajaxterm 0.9-2 only allows logins if invoked by "sudo ajaxterm" (root) rather 
than through "[sudo] /etc/init.d/ajaxterm start" or by a user

However, launchpad.net kept getting internal server errors and/or timing
out on trying to submit this one for days with all sorts of browsers
(Firefox 2.0.0.3 through Konqueror all the way back to lynx and w3m)
until I realised it has an issue with summaries longer than a few words
- latest OOPS-502A512 for those with an account on the launchpad-users
mailing list... (if the server can't handle this an input
http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#adef-maxlength limit
seems indicated).

But back the bug (found using Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn"):

The default installation of ajaxterm starts it via "/etc/init.d/ajaxterm
start", resulting in a "Login: " prompt at http://localhost:8022 which
cannot actually be used to log in: Any user name entered there will only
result in this prompt reappearing, without even anything adverse (such
as authentication failures) reported in the logs.

While "Login: " may look promising, for a functional ajaxterm on a given
machine (assuming "penguin" for the purposes of this report) the real
login prompt actually permitting a user to authenticate would be
"penguin login: " rather than the former.

When issuing "/etc/init.d/ajaxterm stop" and subsequently invoking "sudo
ajaxterm" (or even - heaven forfend ;-) - being root  as one could
after setting a "sudo passwd root"), the appropriate "penguin login: "
appears at http://localhost:8022 and does work as intended.

This might be an issue with Ubuntu's notorious aversion to "root" (or
even patches to avoid this user), or simply any other distribution-
specific privileges issue unbeknownst to
http://antony.lesuisse.org/qweb/trac/wiki/AjaxTerm as of yet.

[Bug 60931] Re: Printing only works for PostScript files or CUPS' own test page

2007-05-18 Thread TEN
The start of each job actually does seem to get sent to the printer, as
the HL-1650's LCD shows a green (i.e. informational) message such as "18
user SomeSite", i.e. apparently a job number followed by the user name
and job name. Apparently the printer detects and discards the subsequent
data as garbled in most cases before rendering the page (be it PS or
PCL6).

Moreover, connecting an HP Deskjet 930C (i.e. a line rather than page
printer) to the same server also shows only approximately half an inch
printing (after pressing the page feed key blinking in orange), i.e.
with a very different driver the job also gets stopped (even when
printing the test pages, which works fine -i.e. printing the complete
page without any error- on the HL-1650 in PCL6 from the context menu in
System/Administration/Printers, as well as in PS from
http://localhost:631/printers/HL-1650?op=print-test-page).

So I suspect some serious filter problem (as there apparently already
was in 6.06) but I'm at a loss as to which debugging/logging steps to
try&supply - any help appreciated.

Moreover, in spite of a manual "unset LANG" (as recommended specifically
for Ubuntu) prior to invocation of "sudo ajaxterm", important
keys/characters such as @ and \ are not working e.g. from Windows
Internet Explorer clients, and accented letters (e.g. with diacritics
like German "Umlaute") are missing from the output displayed by the
ajaxterm (which would not work anyway for the reason in the previous
post) as installed by Ubuntu's package manager.

[Bug 60931] Re: Printing only works for PostScript files or CUPS' own test page

2007-05-12 Thread TEN
I'm afraid there is currently no way to attach this printer to a local
parallel port - the systems are at opposite ends of the network and
premises, and rather immobile.

Suffice it to say that printing does work from Windows (both PostScript
and PCL) as well as from other Linux systems (even ancient SuSE 8,2) and
also locally on the server - which isn't Windows, of course, but the
venerable OS/2 Warp 4.

Moreover, the fact that both the "CUPS v1.2.x Printer Test Page" and
error messages when using the PCL 6 driver, as well as occasional badly
rendered PostScript jobs (only some borders without text), do print over
the network from the freshly installed Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn" box,
suggest that this is not a network problem (the reported, unresolved
issue Samba 3 seems to have with OS/2 according to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/112839 concerns
file sharing).

[Bug 106552] Re: 1680*1050 etc. cannot be set in spite of 915resolution - DDC failure over DVI(-ADD)?

2007-05-05 Thread TEN
In Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn" finally this problem can be overcome by entering
apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel
which will replace the default xserver-xorg-video-i810 (with broken EDID/DDC) 
and properly auto-detect at least 1680*1050 DVI TFTs.

This comes with a plethora of (ignored) warnings on install, though
(that the next user to try out this driver is asked to post here for
everyone to "enjoy"), and somewhat confusingly leaves the original
/etc/X11/xorg.conf (still mentioning the removed driver) in place:

Section "Device"
Identifier  "Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics 
Controller"
Driver  "i810"
BusID   "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

In other words, the default (including Live CD) configuration is not
usable at physical resolution with standard widescreen monitors on
integrated Intel graphics, and even now that there is a workaround
(alternate driver), this is hard to find for the average user.

works for me in Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron", making e.g. OS/2 shares finally

(As a welcome side effect of the improvements in Samba support, printing
via SMB now works out of the box without any of the prior versions'
hassles: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/60931)

Unlike the share name (which will automatically be retried in uppercase
by mount.cifs if not specified this way already), the server name now
has to specified additionally in uppercase as servern=MYHOST in the
above example; otherwise an ambiguous "mount error 2 = No such file or

This exists all the way into Hardy Heron 8.04.1 and should be considered
a bug (rather than Wishlist), as no indication is given where to remove
a misspelled server (sure enough the "server" line in /etc/ntp.conf is
where this information ends up, but Joe Avg. User hasn't even heard the
words NTP at this point). There also seems to be no clear indication how
to enter location information for an added custom time server.

BTW the "Synchronize now" button only exists in "Configuration: Manual"
but might be required even where automatic synchronization is enabled,
e.g. in case of hibernation or VMs.

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-v4l
  
  Video from analog TV channels is shown distorted by black bars.
  DVB video (digital TV) has block artefacts and chopped audio (the latter even 
occurs on DVB radio channels) whenever accessed by v4l (presumably upgraded to 
v4l2 in Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron").
  The issue occurs in xawtv (output reproduced below) but can also be 
demonstrated in other applications such as the Ekiga VoIP client (formerly 
known as GnomeMeeting) when configured to use the same device as its video feed.
  
  The audio distortion disappears as soon as the video display is closed
  with the source left running.
  
  This as well as the fact that the same hardware performs just fine under
  a legacy Ubuntu 7.04 installed in parallel demonstrates that bad signal
  (i.e. weak TV reception leading to UNCorrectable errors) cannot possibly

[Bug 263328] [NEW] Default-enabled Goom Visualization grinds to a halt

2008-08-31 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vdr-plugin-xineliboutput

When switching to radio channels (i.e. only APID but no VPID), the vdr-
plugin-xineliboutput has
VDR/Setup/Plugins/xineliboutput/Audio/Visualization/Goom is enabled by
default, which creates an animation modulated by the audio stream.

However, on all but one occasions I have only seen it display a few
frames before grinding to a halt, which might put CRTs and Plasma
displays at risk as a static image remains on the screen.

As the system is >75% idle and the animation did work nicely at least
once (without any change to the settings), I cannot confirm that this is
simply due to CPU-greediness as assumed in http://www.mail-
archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg06196.html - nor that the change to
settings proposed therein means any improvement.

Actually I see the same effect (slowdown after a few frames) even if
selecting ridiculously low resolutions such as 51*29 which even ancient
machines should be able to render (tested on an Intel Pentium 4 at
2.8GHz).

Any indications how to debug this welcome...

[Bug 243734] [NEW] Distorted video (and chopped audio) using xawtv etc. despite "v4l-conf had some trouble"

2008-06-28 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-v4l

Video from analog TV channels is shown distorted by black bars.
DVB video (digital TV) has block artefacts and chopped audio (the latter even 
occurs on DVB radio channels) whenever accessed by v4l (presumably upgraded to 
v4l2 in Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron").
The issue occurs in xawtv (output reproduced below) but can also be 
demonstrated in other applications such as the Ekiga VoIP client (formerly 
known as GnomeMeeting) when configured to use the same device as its video feed.

The audio distortion disappears as soon as the video display is closed
with the source left running.

This as well as the fact that the same hardware performs just fine under
a legacy Ubuntu 7.04 installed in parallel demonstrates that bad signal
(i.e. weak TV reception leading to UNCorrectable errors) cannot possibly
be the cause of these issues, also the symptoms may look similar at
first glance.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/230882 may be
related.

mplayer and xine have no trouble playing back the same streams through
other methods, such as streamed over http by a local VDR (a Linux
"killer app" which is otherwise rendered unusable by this and a related
issue, a conflict of a buggy budget_av kernel module, cf.

[Bug 250107] Re: VDR won't autostart on boot as ENABLED=1 in /etc/default/vdr is ignored

2008-08-03 Thread TEN
A few updates and reboots later, it looks like ENABLED=1 is actually
honored, but VDR exits due to (per /var/log/messages):

vdr: connection to LCDd at localhost:13666 failed.
runvdr: stopping after fatal fail (sock_connect: connect failed: Connection 
refused)

I.e. when installing vdr-plugin-lcdproc, it has to be made sure that an
init dependency (cf. http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts &
http://user.skolelinux.no/~pere/mypapers/200706-bootseq/200706-bootseq.html)
is created (or that the scripts are otherwise appropriately modified,
e.g. by a respective handling through Upstart in /etc/events.d, cf.
http://upstart.ubuntu.com/), causing /etc/init.d/vdr not to be run
before /etc/init.d/LCDd has successfully been started.

Worryingly, there is also this error on every start of VDR (even if
successful):

[Bug 250107] Re: VDR won't autostart on boot as ENABLED=1 in /etc/default/vdr is ignored

2008-08-04 Thread TEN
Neither of the following additions to /etc/init.d/vdr has had any effect
(i.e. VDR is still too early for LCDd to have come up on reboot, and
will exit for that reason):

# Required-Start:$all
# Should-Start:  $local_fs $remote_fs lcdd

Not sure if (after making changes) anything has to be invoked
specifically to parse the INIT INFO blocks prior to reboot.


Moreover, VDR will also have issues when starting as the order of DVB cards is 
random (i.e. intermittently changing between reboots) unless 
/etc/modprobe.d/dvb is appended as follows:

install dvb-ttpci /sbin/modprobe budget-av; /sbin/modprobe --ignore-
install dvb-ttpci


To avoid buffer underruns while v4l(2) issues persist (cf. 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-v4l/+bug/243734) , 
the following setting to maximum value should also be added to 
/etc/modprobe.conf.local:

options budget-core bufsize=1410

** Summary changed:

- VDR won't autostart on boot as ENABLED=1 in /etc/default/vdr is ignored
+ VDR startup issues

** Description changed:

+ The first impression was that ENABLED=1 in /etc/default/vdr would be

[Bug 245439] [NEW] Diacritic characters garbled in vdradmin-am (presumably an UTF-8 issue)

2008-07-04 Thread TEN
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vdradmin-am

Special characters (such as Umlaut symbols in German) are displayed
garbled thoughout vdradmin-am, e.g. in the program schedules accessible
through the Channels button at http://localhost:8001, or in the
abstracts of recorded shows.

For instance, the ü entity ü becomes ü, the ß lowercase
double-s ligature ß becomes ß.

These texts saved from EPG data are the basis for creating the menu
structures when browsing recordings (typically by a user in a living-
room environment without a full keyboard to correct them) and/or
converting them to DVD, inevitably propagating the corrupted characters.
This issue (presumably one of UTF-8 support) should be fixed ASAP.

Moreover, vdradmind will currently be disabled following installation,
requiring the user to find (without notice) and manually edit
/etc/default/vdradmin-am to ENABLED="1". No indication is given as to
the URL for the web interface either.

[Bug 112839] Re: I/O error on access to SMB shares of OS/2 Warp 4 host mounted in Ubuntu 7.04

2008-03-14 Thread TEN
As has been concluded on irc://irc.freenode.net/#samba-os2, Samba
3.0.28a will not have fixed "I/O errors on access to SMB shares of OS/2.
(LP: #112839)" - the kernel has to be compiled with
CONFIG_CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH enabled by default, otherwise this bug will
persist.

[Bug 60931] Re: Printing only works for PostScript files or CUPS' own test page

2008-03-14 Thread TEN
According to testing of smbclient print commands against several OS/2
systems (conducted through irc://irc.freenode.net/#samba-os2), larger
jobs will be broken in at an (erroneous) upper size limit of 73 to 126kB
(the precise figure is apparently machine-dependent).

If one is lucky, the printer will recognize and discard the larger jobs
as incomplete (rather than wasting paper on them).

As the OS/2 printer queue may be advised to hold rather than print
incoming jobs, these can be copied back from D:\SPOOL\MyPSprtr\*.SPL and
compared against the original jobs e.g. using diff (-u) to reproduce the
effects of this bug (which is presumably located within Samba).

[Bug 202445] Re: Please enable CONFIG_CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH for hardy

2008-03-15 Thread TEN
Enabling CONFIG_CIFS_WEAK_PW_HASH should also actually fix
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/112839 by making
mount.cifs work without the need to build custom kernels.
