[Bug 1307265] Re: installation hangs if postgres is not listening on default port

2014-07-26 Thread Ubfan
The Postgresql 9.3 update to Ubuntu 14.04 improperly changed the default
port from 5432 to 5433.

Historically, port 5432 has been the default Postgresql port.  Some update in 
14.04 of Postgresql to 9.3.4-1 apparently decided to use 5433 as the default 
port.  This change breaks things because header files like postgresql.conf have 
the default,5432, wired into them as both strings and numbers, so while psql 
will work on the new default port, existing compiled programs using
ecpg preprocessing fail and recompiling/reinking does not fix the problem 
either (because of the header files with the old default).
(Assuming everything was using the default, when no PGPORT environment variable 
has been explicitly set).

If you are going to change the port default, you have to do a complete
job of altering all the header files, and at least warn users that the
new Postgresql upgrade may require a recompile/relink of existing
programs.

  A workaround to the ecpg programs (and anything else relying on the
headers) is to explicitly set the environment variable PGPORT to 5433,
just as if a non-default port is being used.   The whole point of a
default is that's what you get when you don't specify anything.   A
better workaround is to edit the 5433 back to 5432 in the
postgresql.conf file, and restart.

The suggested fix is to NOT change the default port from 5432  in the
first place.

[Bug 46520] Re: Grub installs to wrong drive's MBR in default install. No way to change in standard installer.

2009-01-18 Thread Ubfan
This problem is present in Intrepid and easy to duplicate with a laptop and a 
USB disk.
Installating Ubuntu to a USB disk is likely to be a common scenario.

Set the laptop boot order to be: USB/CDROM/harddisk. Boot the standared live 
Ubuntu CD-ROM, plug 
in the USB disk, and install to the first USB partition.  Select the default 
(not advanced)
option and the result of the successful install will boot neither Linux nor 
Windows, with
or without the USB disk attached.

The Cause:
The Grub files are put on the USB /boot/grub, but the Grub bootloader is put 
on the laptop harddisk master boot block.  The menu.lst disk identifications 
are the USB UUID for
the Linux roots and (hd0... for Windows!  Without the USB drive attached, the 
Grub bootloader
cannot find its files, so it fails.  With the USB drive attached, the windows 
disk is wrong in
the menu.lst (It is not hd0, as menu.lst identifies it). Not sure why the 
Ubuntu boots fail,
unless since there is no bootloader on the USB disk, the disk is not even seen, 
and the UUID
is not found. 

Workarounds:  
  1) Windows boot works (only with USB attached) when you change the boot order 
to hard-disk first, then
the Grub hd0 is accurate for the Windows sections.  I thought I tried editing 
menu.lst, changing the hd0 to hd1
for the windows sections, and even trying to map (hd0) (hd1) ...  all failed 
(before fixing the USB boot, then just
changing the hd0 to hd1 worked).
  2) Linux boot may be fixed by booting the CD-ROM, and doing the Grub install 
again to the 
USB disk (needed the --recheck and the explicit root-directory flag to get 
beyond the disk not
 supported by bios complaint).  Then replace the menu.lst file, which 
disappeared! (I had a backup called menu.lst~).
  3) To use the laptop without the USB disk, either:
a) Restore the MBR with the Windows Recovery Console's FIXMBR (good luck, 
finding the Recovery Console is the hard part!).
b) Find a (Windows) fdisk on a bootable media, and fdisk /mbr
c) Do a complete Grub install to a FAT partition (like the recovery 
partition found on many laptops these days).  I
   finally did this, since I have messed up a system before looking for the 
Recovery Console on the
   vendor supplied recovery disks.

Other (hopefully) irrelevant details:
 * AMD cpu laptop, NTFS primary partition, FAT recovery partition
 * MAXTOR 200G USB disk, 9 partitions, first partition 50G for the Ubuntu 
install, preformatted ext2. No swap. No boot.
 * Before repair, Grub console found the /ntldr on (hd1,1), but nothing was 
found  on hd0 (?).  
 * Visible devices were fd1-fd7, hd0 and hd1.  I thought the 7 floppy disks 
were probably the  misidentified usb disk partitions.
 * kernel is whatever the 8.10 live cd installs

2009-01-20 Thread Ubfan
The laptop is an HP Presario v3100 with an 80G Seagate ST98823as drive.
Always thought it was IDE.  From the interrupts, it looks like the
harddisk is on the secondary slot, with the dvd/cdrom on the primary (or
nothing since the number of primary interrupts is 0).  No tools to
actually open things and look, sorry.  I'm all set up and running the
way I wanted, now, thanks.

[Bug 414996] Re: [karmic] grub re-writes boot sector on wrong drive on fresh install

2010-01-01 Thread Ubfan
After many successful 32 bit Karmic installs from a live usb stick to usb
sticks and usb hard disks, I installed a 64bit Karmic from a CDROM (to a usb
stick) and clicking on the Advanced button, noticed the difference in the use
of (hd0) for the boot location instead of an actual device (e.g. /dev/sdb).
I retyped the correct device (/dev/sdb) and avoided wiping out the Windows
mbr (which was on /dev/sda, and which the device.map was mapping to hd0).

Regardless of the install media (usb stick or CDROM), grub-install gets all
the devices wrong in device.map (in this situation).
As a result of the device.map file mapping the Windows sda to hd0, every
device mentioned in the grub.cfg (or menu.lst) is wrong too, even when the
mbr goes to the right location.  The boots only work  because of the use of
UUIDs.  To fix the grub.cfg file, correct the device.map, and rerun update-grub.
e.g. Make hd0 the actual boot device (/dev/sdb), and put the windows /dev/sda 
on hd1,

if you want to allow the usb stick to boot windows when used on another 
computer,
edit the grub.cfg to remove the UUID lines for the windows menu items.

See bugs 45989, 46520, and 384633 for some history of using the wrong   
   
device for the mbr.

[Bug 495131] Re: update-manager cannot find space on /tmp ramdisk

2009-12-21 Thread Ubfan
The root of this problem is the inability of python's os.statvfs to handle 
ramfs file systems.  A workaround
is to use tmpfs instead, then everything works.  ...DistUpgradeCache.py has the 
checkFreeSpace function which utilizes the os.statvfs.  The purpose of using a 
ram disk here is to minimize writes to flash, which has a limited number of 
write cycles.  From the docs, it looked like ramfs would be better for this 
than tmpfs (I have no swap either), but since I can successfully run 
update-manager with the tmpfs, this fix should be low priority.

[Bug 495131] [NEW] update-manager cannot find space on /tmp ramdisk

2009-12-10 Thread Ubfan
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

 In 32 Bit Karmic Koala (9.10), running off a 4G usb stick, when
mounting a 256M ramdisk for /tmp from fstab, update-manager claims
not enough space is available on /tmp.  The /tmp  ramdisk works fine,
able to hold a 70M zip and unpack it, and there is lots  of space
left on /.  Note that a 64 bit Karmic on a 4G stick with an 
identical ramdisk, update-manager works fine.  However, even on the
64 bit version, df shows 0 avail for /tmp.

Update-manager can download the package information, but fails to
download any actual packages.  The first time update-manager was run,
11 packages of 5.2M found, soon after, 12 packages of 5.3 meg were
found.  Not sure if the 5.234k changed when 12 packages found.  No
later changes of the 5.234 were seen, regardless of the size of the
download (larger or smaller).

Example:
 Update Manager finds 12 packages needing 5.3m, but selecting the
Install button leads to a popup error window:
Not Enough Free Disk Space
The upgrade needs a total of 5,243k free space on disk '/tmp'. Please free at
least an additional 5,243k of disk space on '/tmp'. Empty your trash and
remove temporary packages of former installations using 'sudo apt-get clean'.

Removal of the /tmp line in /etc/fstab, reboot, and update-manager
works fine. Restore the /tmp line in fstab, (wait a bit) and next
time two packages sized 1.2M are avail, the original error window
complaining of needing 5.234k reappears.  Even later, when the
packages to download total 39.9M, the message remains the same --
5,234k needed.  This bug may be related to 285096.  Firefox has no
trouble downloading files.  Cannot find any other program having
problems, even the Synaptic Package Manager works fine.
df -a output is all zeros for /tmp, even on the 64 bit system
which seems to have no problems with update-manager.

The below system info is from the time when update-manager
finds 12 packages.

System info:
Presario V3000
 AMD Turion 64, 2G mem, an ext2 filesystem on a 4G usb stick for
root, no swap, no proprietary drivers in use.  Karmic 9.10, both
32 and 64 bit versions, patched to date 12/8/2009.

The line in /etc/fstab creating the /tmp ramdisk:
$ fgrep ramfs /etc/fstab
ramfs   /tmpramfs   size=256M,mode=1777 0   0

mount shows the /tmp ramdisk.

[Bug 384633] Re: Grub Installer gets devices wrong when running from live USB

2009-12-10 Thread Ubfan
As of Karmic (9.10), grub's use of UUIDs fixed the problem of being
unable to boot the other operating systems.  The devices are still
wrong, but will make no difference unless the install is to a portable
device like a usb stick which should be able to boot windows on any PC.
In that case, fix the device.map file to make hd0 the actual root
device, and rerun update-grub.

Further testing with a 64 bit Karmic system now shows this problem.
With ramdisks mounted on /tmp and /var/cache/apt/archives (with
a directory partial created), the no space message appeared for
a 40M download for both the ...archives directory (possibly valid, but
I thought the default was 64M), and the /tmp directory, with the
same 5.234M additional space needed.  Removing the ...archives
ramdisk removed the associated error message, but the /tmp message
presisted, just like on the 32 bit Karmic system.  Removing the /tmp
ramdisk allowed the update to proceed normally.  All updates
were attempted via the System/Administration/Update Manager
menu entry.

2009-06-07 Thread Ubfan
The System/Startup USB disk creator command in 32 bit Intrepid will
successfully create an Intrepid live usb stick, but will fail when given
the jaunty 32bit iso.  The created usb stick will only have a syslinux 2
line text header and a boot: prompt.  No splash, no menu choices, and
nothing entered for a kernel will be found to boot.  From Jaunty (32 or
64), the usb creator will succeed in creating a live Jaunty (32 or 64)
usb stick.  All usb creations which succeeded were using the default (no
explicit iso given).  It would be nice to fix the Intrepid creator
command to successfully use a Jaunty iso.  Currently, I still have to
burn a live CD-ROM of a new system to create the live usb startup disk.

[Bug 384633] [NEW] Grub Installer gets devices wrong when running from live USB

2009-06-07 Thread Ubfan
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub-installer

 System: laptop hd has WinXP, usb disk has several Linux distros.
 Boot order is usb thumbdrive, usb hard disk, and laptop hard disk.

Using a Jaunty live usb thumbdrive, install to an USB partition.
Remove the usb thumbdrive and reboot. The grub menu.lst for the
current Jaunty install is UUID based and boots successfully.  All  
other boot paragraphs (Windows and Linux) fail to boot because they  
refer to wrong devices.  All the other Linux installations on the usb
disk incorrectly refer to hd1 instead of the correct hd0.  The
windows paragraph refers to hd0 (and lacks map commands), instead of
the correct map (hd0) (hd1), map (hd1) (hd0), rootnoverify (hd1,0).

The device.map claims hd0 is /dev/sda, which is also wrong, but makes
no difference after the menu.lst is corrected.

[Bug 816062] Re: When opening up FireFox 5 screen goes white

2011-09-30 Thread Ubfan
I sometimes see a white screen in firefox when running 11.04, but only
with the Unity interface, not the classical.  The whiteness is size
dependent, it comes and goes as the screen is resized (showing the
normal web page when not present).  The resizing may be done with the
corner resizer or by moving the window to the left to get a half screen.
This occurred at the fresh install of Natty, and basically made it
unusable for me.  Since the installation is on a 4G usb stick which
moves between machines, driver confusion may be an issue.  The old
laptop has Nvidia chips, but the Natty is not set to use them and Unity
does not run.  The netbook does not have Nvidia.  At some point, the 2D
Unity was installed, and now I cannot seem to select a Unity interface
on the Netbook (which used to run Unity by default).  I do not recall
seeing the problem with the 2D Unity interface

An 8G stick with 10.10 will shutdown with a dirty filesystem 25% of the time.  
Never had problems with 10.10 on 4G sticks, so maybe the speed of the root

[Bug 876734] Re: gnome-terminal scroll position indicator invisible when left scroll is selected

2012-04-02 Thread Ubfan
This bug also affects Ubuntu 12.04 beta 2.
With all the other window controls on the left by default, the left-scrollbar 
should not be that unusual a choice. Since finding the left scrollbar is so 
difficult (scroll length is set to 2048, so the invisible red indicator is 
pretty small), a workaround is to simply suppress the new scroll bar, and fall 
back to the old one. which is always visible.

2011-08-26 Thread Ubfan
This is still an issue with 10.04 and 11.04.  Probably 10.10 too, but I'll have 
to wait until some more updates are available to test.
Suggested fix:
Use the size= option in the fstab line, which the mount command will report.
Use the amount of free space in ram.
Use the needed download size.
Figure out some amount of ram not to use to keep the system running, and
if the device free space comes back zero (which is what the system function 
reports for ramfs devices),
calculate using the above to see if there is really enough space.

[Bug 495131] Re: update-manager cannot find space on /tmp ramdisk

2011-08-27 Thread Ubfan
Edit your /etc/fstab to add a line putting /tmp into a ramfs device. See the 
below excerpt of fstab:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# file system mount point   type  options   dump  pass
proc/proc   procnodev,noexec,nosuid 0   0

# update-manager cannot see any space in /tmp when ramfs used
ramfs   /tmpramfs   size=256M,mode=1777 0   0
---snip--

Reboot, and /tmp will be in a mounted ramdisk.  The size=256M is unused, but 
will be reported by mount.
Most things will run fine if you really do have free ram, but update-manager 
will die with insufficient space errors
for any size (greater than zero) update.

Change the two ramfss in the line to tmpfs, and things work with
update-manager.

[Bug 879120] [NEW] 11.10 shutdown delay of 1 min when using the open source Broadcom firmware

2011-10-20 Thread Ubfan
Public bug reported:

The Broadcom 4311/12 wireless chips require firmware when using the b43 driver.
This firmware is available from Broadcom (which is put into /lib/firmware/b43)
or as open source (which is put into /lib/firmware/b43-open).  Either firmware
works, but when the proprietary Broadcom firmware is not present in .../b43,
shutdown takes an extra minute, after the log file line could not find
.../b43/ucode5.fw.  After a minute, shutdown completes normally.
Adding in the Broadcom firmware lets shutdown proceed without the minute
delay.  This behavior is new with the 11.10 release.

Note the below udev items from /var/log/udev are probably the cause of this
problem.

The open source firmware is available in packages firmware-b43-installer

with the problem had used those packages, however.  The firmware may
have been compiled directly, or copied from another system.

Further testing with a fresh Maverick install to an 8G stick and
updated, displayed the improper shutdown problem -- it's as if the usb
gets turned off before the filesystem is dismounted, leaving it dirty
and in need of checking next boot.  Looks like Lucid is the last release
that worked properly on the MSI 135 netbook.

[Bug 384633] Re: Grub Installer gets devices wrong when running from live USB

2010-11-01 Thread Ubfan
This problem goes back to grub1, and grub 2 did not fix it entirely.  UUIDs 
helped, but they are not used for every disk reference.  I use the normal 
desktop gui install, from a 2G live usb, to a 4G usb target on a standard 
Windows laptop,  The created grub.cfg still has wrong device references for 
things like root=(hd2   instead of hd1 even though the UUID is used on the 
kernel line -- so it does not boot. At the first target reboot after 
installation, I edit the boot command to reduce the hd2 to hd1, and after 
successful boot, run update-grub to get the whole grub.cfg fixed.
   UUIDs are NOT used 100% of the time, Within the last 24 hrs, a Maverick 
install from a Maverick created live usb to a 4G pqi smart stick created 
fstab with /dev/sdc as /.  (how can this even boot?)  The grub.cfg file had the 
hd2 to hd1 edit to boot, and the kernel line did have the UUID.
  My first Maverick install was from a Lucid created live usb to a 4G hp 
(older) stick, and had to do the F6 ... text install.  This created an fstab 
with a UUID, but the grub.cfg had /sdc on the kernel line, as well as the usual 
wrong hd2 references.  Maybe this install was an odd ball given the manual 
intervention necessary to get the install to work.
  The cause is obvious, grub2 writes its first install configuration with all 
the devices, including the install media, which is not going to be present at 
the first reboot.  hd0 is windows on the hard disk, hd1 is the usb install 
media, and hd2 is the target.  Remove the install media, and hd0 is still 
windows, but hd2 does not exist, since the target is now hd1. I haven't been 
saving bad grob.cfg files for awhile, but I could do another install and grab 
one.  As I recall, there were comments about the devices that were also 
referring to the sdc device for the linux boot paragraphs.

[Bug 384633] Re: Grub Installer gets devices wrong when running from live USB

2010-10-19 Thread Ubfan
Maverick usb install media, whether created from Lucid or Maverick will still   
create a non-booting target usb device (thumbdrive or usb hdd) because the
wrong device (sdc instead of sdb) is used.  To recap, at install time, the 
Windows internal hard disk gets sda, the boot media gets sdb, and the target
usb gets sdc.  The grub paragraphs all are written to the target with these
device assignments, even though it is certain that the boot media will not be
present when you boot the target.  Using a CDROM install media avoids this   
problem since the drive is not given an interferring sdx device.  The usual
fix is necessary:  At target boot, edit the grub paragraph to reduce the 
device  references by one (hd2 - hd1, and sdc - sdb), for the first boot,
then after a successful boot, immediately sudo update-grub.  Without the boot  
media, the devices will be correct for the next reboot.  fstab uses UUID, so is 
ok.

2010-11-03 Thread Ubfan
Certainly not the case with me.  The root=/dev/sdc1 on the linux line overrides 
whatever the search UUID did.  I just did a fresh install from a 2G usb stick 
created on a Maverick system with the normal desktop iso, to a 4G new pqi 
stick.  I captured the grub.cfg (bad), fstab (OK), and the /var/log files in 
case you needed them.  The first boot attempt fell into BusyBox after about a 
minute with the following error:
Gave up waiting for  root device.  Common problems:
-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
  -check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
  -check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)   NO IT DIDN'T
-Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev

cat /proc/cmdline gives:
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic root=/dev/sdc1 ro quiet splash

The modules were:
usb_storage firewire_ohci, firesire_core, pata_amd, forcedeth, sdhci_pci, 
ac_itu_t, sdhci, sata_nv, led_class, ssb

The /dev directory contained sg0, sda, sda1, sda2, sda3 (the Windows disk), 
sg1, sdb, sdb1 (the 4G stick failing to boot)
and no sdc.

I select manual partition selection, select the sdc1, format an ext2 fs,
no swap, the grub boot goes to the 4G stick on sdc (default after I
select the sdc disk).  The only disks shown are sda( the windows disk),
and sdc(the target).  sdb is the 2G install usb, and correctly is not a
choice.

I do agree that if the UUID is used on the linux line, the set root= line to 
the wrong hd2 will not stop the boot.
I have just done 4 quick Maverick USB installs, and I think I recall that not 
all have had the sdc1 on the linux line.  The install to a USB hard disk seemed 
to only have the set root=(hd2 problem, which I automatically corrected at 
first boot.  I don't plan on doing another USB/hdd install any time soon, but 
if you need me to, I will reinstall it to see exactly what happens.

[Bug 384633] Re: Grub Installer gets devices wrong when running from live USB

2010-11-05 Thread Ubfan
No, I have never edited any default files to produce the sdc on the
linux line.  The problem is created by a pretty standard install, just
doing a manual partition because I am afraid if I answer yes to use the
whole disk the windows internal disk would be wiped out.

2010-11-06 Thread Ubfan
I found the original grub.cfg file from a USB hard disk install.  It does use 
UUIDs on the linux line, just the hdx references are wrong.  This probably 
would have booted Maverick successfully, but maybe not Windows, which does the 
search with UUID, but used the bad hd1 for the drvemap.  The fstab file also 
used UUID for the root and swap, just having the leftover comments about the 
devices being on /dev/sdcx at install (comments which no longer appear in the 
grub.cfg file).
grub.cfg from a maverick created 2G USB installer to a USB hard disk target -- 
only hx? references are wrong but may still boot linux.but probably not Windows:

[Bug 384633] Re: Grub Installer gets devices wrong when running from live USB

2010-11-06 Thread Ubfan
 We both agree the second grub file will boot linux.  I doubt it will boot 
windows, but don't care.
Look at the LINUX line from first grub.cfg file from a 4G stick install, four 
lines cut out below:

set root='(hd2,msdos1)'
 search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 0ddfb60a-4791-45c9-85ec-c13c42c459af
 echo 'Loading Linux 2.6.35-22-generic ...'
 linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic root=/dev/sdc1 ro single

It's the root=/dev/sdc1 part which makes boot fail, EVERY TIME.  Surely
you will admit that this overrides the search UUID business?

I do nothing to cause the device to be used instead of the UUID.

Installs to 4G sticks seem to get the device and will not boot without editing 
the grub commands.
Installs to a USB hard disk seem to get the UUID and will work for the first 
linux boot.

After so many bad installs to non-booting sticks, I tend to edit the
grub commands at first boot and fix the obvious wrong items, and not to
even try to see if the boot works.  In addressing this bug, it is of
interest that the problem is not consistently a problem with USB
installs, since the USB hard disks will actually boot.

Yes, I can recreate it.
I'll run a couple of Maverick installs tonight to some 4G sticks.
I'll use a Maverick created installer, and capture the grub.cfg, and fstab.
If I can, I'll grab the log files off the install media too.

[Bug 384633] Re: Grub Installer gets devices wrong when running from live USB

2010-11-07 Thread Ubfan
Recreated the problem of the sdc appearing on the linux lines in grub.cfg on an 
install to a 4G Patriot xmini usb stick.
fstab was OK with the UUID used for /, sdc1 only appearing in a comment.
I did copy the /var/log files off the install media in case they might be of 
interest.
Install sequence of events:
Booted the Maverick install media, at the Try/Install screen, i inserted 
the target 4G usb.
I was Not connected to the internet, and did not check off third party sw.
Selected Specify partitions manually instead of use whole disk.
(I had previously taken the new 4G stick, and made one partition, starting at 
sector 8192, with h=4 and s/t=16.)
Selected sdc1, then the change button.
use as ext2, format, /  selected
Boot loader automatically switched to the 4G stick on sdc from the windows sda 
disk.
selected install now
selected continue on the no swap warning
Set time zone to LA
selected USA keyboard
Filled out the name, user, etc, require pw to boot.
When install finished, I switched to a virtual terminal, and tared up the 
/var/log files.
unmounted the target. Rebooted to my normal linux environment (on a 4G stick), 
and copied off the grub.cfg and fstab from the just created target usb.

This result is the same as the previous install to a 4G PQI usb stick,
which did not boot because of the sdc1 on the linux line.

Sometimes after the screensaver, the mouse pointer becomes invisible on
a current to 11/6 Maverick 10.10 system. I am running the Nvidia
graphics 6150, without the proprietary drivers. I don't recall seeing
this problem in any earlier release. The hardware did not have problems
with the 10.04 black screen of death. Going to a virtual terminal and
returning did not restore the pointer. I usually just reboot.

Correct.
It just occurred to me that a significant difference between the two installs 
is that the usb flash sticks only have one partition.  I have always had at 
least two partitions on a hard disk (one for swap, plus the install partition, 
plus any others).

grub edited just the sdc to sdb to boot, no other changes made.
Copied fstab and grub.cfg to desktop
sudo update-grub
The fstab was unchanged (OK), and the grub.cfg had the UUIDs used instead of 
the sdc devices, and the hd2 s were changed to hd1 s., correcting all the 
problems.

[Bug 156477] Re: Installer fails if windows on another partition is hibernated

2011-02-15 Thread Ubfan
The Maverick installer was a 2G SD card, created on a fully patched
Lucid system on Nov 15, 2010.  The workaround to the error was to type
F6 early on, which seemed to skip some checking and got me to the
language selection screen, from which I installed Maverick to a 4G
stick.  The error was consistent.  If I let the install run without
keyboard entry, it would always hang at the error.

The Maverick (10.10) live usb media (32 bit desktop)  displayed this
problem, refusing to get past a hibernated embedded windows which did
not affect previous installations back to Intrepid.  I believe the
hibernated Windows partition was for a quick start of media player for
DVDs or CDs but has never been used to my knowledge.  The installer
stalled on the Ubuntu screen with the colored dots.  Typing ESC got to
the underlying error screen.

The (manually copied) error was:
Windows is hibernated, refused to mount.
Failed to mount /dev/sda3: Operation not permitted.
The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume and shutdown Windows properly,
or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount options, or mount the volume
read-write with the 'remove_hiberfile' mount option.
For example type on the command line:
  mount -t ntfs-3g -o remove_hiberfile /dev/sda3 /cdrom

Ubuntu 10.10 update-manager can get into a state which will not show theUbuntu 
10.10 update-manager can get into a state which will not show the progress 
windows for downloading, or for applying changes.  The update completes and is  
normal otherwise.  This state will presist across reboots.  Running 
update-manager from a termninal with sudo will always
make the progress windows appear, and then the next gui invocation of 
update-manager will have the progress windows, but the next login/reboot, the 
windows may be absent from the gui again.  The check button from the sudo 
invocation is enough to fix the problem for the next gui invocation.

I believe, but am not sure the initial problem was caused by invoking
update-manager from a non-sudo user (even just to check, since the
installation could not work).  I had two identical thumbdrives, with
nothing but updates applied to the default applications, one had the
problem,  and the other did not.

[Bug 510318] Re: Ubuntu - Linux for Human Beings! (About Ubuntu) page contains encoding error

2010-02-10 Thread Ubfan
Navigation box appears to have a sporadic problem.
There is another page with this problem which causes a pink error box at the 
top of the page:
How Can I Upgrade to the latest version of Ubuntu?
The error is not consistent -- it's either:
 1)Not present (rare).
 2)line 467 col 46 Encoding error
 2)line 46 col 62 invalid character
 4)line 46 col 63 invalid character   

The page appears to be complete, but the navigation box at the bottom
(previous..., next...) is missing.

There is no nav box on the first page either, Ubuntu -- Linux for Human
Beings either.

[Bug 520207] [NEW] Kernel update to ...32-12 fails because /lib/udev/firmware.sh does not exist

2010-02-10 Thread Ubfan
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.32-12-generic

Update-manager run Feb 10 had a problem with updating the kernel to 32-12.
A window claimed that dpkg --configure -a would be run, but that failed too.  
Manual run below.

Wrong file name for firmware.sh appears to be the problem.  Prevents the
dpkg --configure -a from running too.

[Bug 367766] Re: live USB disk not bootable

2010-02-10 Thread Ubfan
As I recall, the stick did not work on a second laptop either.  The problem was 
fixed in Jaunty, since
a create startup usb command succeeded with a Karmic iso.  I still have an 
Intrepid installation which I can use to see if it can successfully create a 
Karmic usb if that is of interest.  I'm bandwidth limited, and don't have a 
Jaunty iso anymore.

[Bug 463920] Re: evolution crashes when composing a message pressing space

2010-02-11 Thread Ubfan
Karmic/AMD64 after adding the spell, ispell, American dict packages,
evolution exhibits the crash in composing when a word break is first
typed.  Removing the spelling packages is a workaround for the problem.
Maybe turning off spell checking as you type will also workaround the
problem.  This has been reported upstream as a Debian bug (568129) on
libenchant1c2a.  Lets hope it's fixed for Lucid.

[Bug 384633] Re: Grub Installer gets devices wrong when running from live USB

2010-05-09 Thread Ubfan
Lucid (10.04) has fixed the bad device.map (got rid of it), fixed the comments 
mentioning devices on the other oses, and generally has rationalized the hd0 is 
sda, hd1 is sdb.  Unfortunately, the /etc/fstab file now puts / on
/dev/sdcx instead of /dev/sdbx (or UUID as in Karmic).  Since there is no sdc 
after the install media has been removed, this is certainly wrong.  mtab is OK, 
using the correct sdbx mounts.
  Same procedure -- download iso, (on Jaunty) system/administrator/create USB 
startup disk, reboot from usb startup disk, install to USB hard drive.  Avoid 
messing up the Windows MBR with the advanced button to fix where grub is 
installed.  After the first package update, which got a new kernel, I think the 
grub.cfg file is now OK with all the correct devices.  Only wrong device I can 
find is in the fstab for / (root).

[Bug 120829] Re: /dev/sda3 is mounted despite the 'noauto' option in fstab

2010-05-19 Thread Ubfan
I've been dancing around this problem for the last few releases too.  My 
workaround is to use /mnt instead of /media in fstab and then Gnome will obey 
the noauto.  Ideally, I would still get these noauto partitions listed in 
Places/Other Removable Media menu so I could choose to mount them with a click, 
but that feature seemed to go away.  gconf-editor apps/nautilus/preferences has
a medianoautomount option which may help your situation.

2010-03-04 Thread Ubfan
The crash apparently happened on the 32-9 manual remove too.  The 32-9 and 
32-10 removals were the only ones I have seen with the error.  I do not even 
see the modules.buildin.bin in my 9.10 system.  At some point, I lost the 
graphics on the Lucid alpha, so I deleted it.  The Lucid installation was on a 
4G usb stick, so maybe a slow file system exposed a race condition, but
I have not seen this type of error on the many other usb sticks with Intrepid, 
Jaunty, and Karmic.

[Bug 520738] Re: nm-applet freezes xorg/system

2010-02-17 Thread Ubfan
I use only released kernels, and see sporadic mouse freezeups when the
network-manager is doing something.  Yesterday, my Jaunty system froze
when accessing the nm menu.  I have wireless turned off with a manual
switch, but use network-manger for my usb mobile/modem connection.  I
had no other windows open, so could not change focus, and found even
ctrl-alt-del did nothing.  Tried unsuccessfully to change to a virtual
terminal.  Everything appeared dead, so just powered off.  I do not ever
see these freezups doing anything else.  If a freezup happens again, is
there anything I can check to provide more information?

This installation was on a hard disk, in a usb 2.0 enclosure.

Intrepid patched to date March 10, 2010 showed the manual kernel cleanup
problem.  Same file, modules.seriomap was left.

[Bug 577508] Re: gui crashes after screensaver changed (lucid)

2010-05-11 Thread Ubfan
Upgraded from 8.04 to 10.04, and had the screensaver crash when using GL
screensavers.  A quick click before the preview screensaver runs to
select a non GL screensaver stopped the crashes.  The crash may be
related to the bonobo-activation server crash because of a missing
bonono socket in /tmp, an error message I also saw on my system after a
crash.

problem, since iwlist scan will show the two available aps with strengths 
around -75db and quality of both in 30s where one shoud be qual = 78/100, 
strength= -59db and other is 2/100, -89 Db.  The laptop having problems has 
been failing, and this looks like the latest failure symptom.  Your probems may 
be as simple as a bad antenna connection.

2010-05-14 Thread Ubfan
I mount my /var/log on a ramfs (since I run off a 4G thumbdrive), and
worked around the problem by creating any necessary directories in
rc.local.  I've also created in rc.local a link from /var/cache/apt to a
/tmp/debs (with /tmp mounted as tmpfs) and create the /archives/partial
directory (path).  Postgres also needs a directory.  This setup puts
some of the most active write locations into ram, instead of (slow)
flash, which has a limited lifespan.

Downloaded the Sept 20 desktop 64 bit ISO, and on a Secure Boot UEFI
laptop running 13.04, created USB install media, and installed to
another USB set up with gpt and an EFI partition.  Booting the target
USB worked in secure mode, with the signed kernel being used, but the
symlink for the kernel is still to the unsigned kernel.As an aside
here, to be entered into another bug, note that the above

[Bug 1229488] [NEW] 13.10 USB to USB Install on UEFI Secure Boot Machine Left Host Unbootable

2013-09-23 Thread Ubfan
Public bug reported:

Downloaded Sept. 20 daily build of 13.10, 64 bit, desktop ISO, md5sum
checked it, used create startup disk on 13.04 secure boot host to make
USB live media, rebooted from it, and successfully installed 13.10 to
another USB. Target USB had gpt partitioning, had an EFI partition set
up on it, and bootloader target was the UEB's EFI partition.  The USB
installation boots successfully, but the laptop no longer boots from its
hard disk, leaving you at the grub prompt.  The cause was the installation
improperly changed the hard disk's grub.cfg

Expected change to hard disk's /EFI/ubuntu/grub.cfg -- None.
Actual change to hard disk's /EFI/ubuntu.grub.cfg -- The uuid in the
set root just before the configfile command was reset from the hard
disk to the (no longer present) target USB.

Additionally, no NVRAM changes were expected from installing to a USB
stick, but a new boot entry was created.  This boot entry was a correct
(for secure boot) -- /EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi.  NVRAM is a finite
resource, which when used up leaves your machine bricked, or relying on an
untested vendor supplied reset, so any unnecessary additions are highly
undesirable.

Editing the hard disk's improper grub.cfg file by putting in the correct
UUID allowed the laptop to boot successfully.  The EFI menu now has an
additional ubuntu entry, which also boots successfully.  To summarize,
creating or updating a USB installation should not change anything in
NVRAM nor on the hard disk's EFI partition.  This 13.10 installation did both.
(The update reference was to a 12.10 USB update, which changed the NVRAM
shim boot entry's disk code and removed it from the boot order (no bug
filed), so these issues are not new to 13.10.)

Hardware: Toshiba Satellite S855-5378, Insydh20 firmware version 6.60,
8G memory, 750G hard disk, Intel HD4000 video, running dual boot W8 and
fully patched 64 bit 13.04 Ubuntu desktop with secure boot enabled. The only
secure boot issue with this machine is the inability to boot Windows
from grub (bug 1091464), so Windows is the default, and the EFI menu is used
to select Ubuntu to run shim/grub.  The original Ubuntu selection's path is
actually grubx64.efi, which is incorrect for secure boot, but
in /EFI/Boot is a copy of shim.efi named bootx64.efi and grubx64.efi, which 
must be a
fallback, because the boot succeeds anyway. The original shim Ubuntu
selection was improperly changed/removed from boot order and the EFI
menu by a USB 12.10 update (and never added back since a working EFI choice
existed).

Oops, just checked the USB target again after fixing the host machine
and found that it had nothing in its EFI partition, so It would not boot
either.  I thought that specifying the explicit paritition /dev/sdc1 (vs
the device /dev/sdc) would work for removable media bootlaoder
locations on an EFI partitions, but that did not work in this case.  The
EFI updates went to the hard disk's EFI partition as well, as evidenced
by their different size from the 13.04 versions of the signed grubx64
and shim.

[Bug 1091464] Re: Unable to chainload Windows 8 with Secure Boot enabled

2013-11-15 Thread Ubfan
On a just updated 13.10 (Nov 15) getting shim-signed 1.5 and a new signed 
grubx64.efi 2.00..-19 I see no change in the error.
The UnknownMessage (hex 12)  or decimal 18 is indeed an invalid subtype for the 
messaging type (last valid subtype is decimal 15), so looks like leftover 
garbage in the path buffer?  Why is grub even in the messaging type anyway for 
a hard disk boot?  The beginning of the reported path looks just like a network 
boot looks from efibootmgr -v output.  Should the valid path start at the 
/HD...?  If someone without the problem could look at what the actual path 
chainloader is using could confirm that the /ACPI is present and working on 
their system we could eliminate leftover garbage in the grub path buffer as the 
problem.

[Bug 1086289] Re: Wrong grub-efi resolution during OS boot menu selection

2013-05-01 Thread Ubfan
I have seen the reduced grub resolution, but only after an EFI boot failure and 
its subsequent fallback to the /Boot/bootx64.efi.
My machine is a Toshiba Satellite S855, and it boots off USB with a correctly 
set up ESP at full resolution, but when I select the hard disk's ubuntu choice, 
I got the reduced resolution.  Examining the actual hard disk ubuntu boot path, 
it was ...ubuntu/grubx674.efi, which is wrong for a secure boot (which I use).  
It should be ...ubuntu/shim.efi.  The ...Boot/bootx64.efi contained a copy of 
the shim.efi, and when the bootx64 file was removed, the boot failed.  I 
conclude that the first boot attempt to grubx64 directly silently failed, then 
EFI tried the Boot/bootx64 and succeeded in starting shim, which started grub 
-- at the wrong resolution.
  I'd suggest checking your boot path with 
sudo efibootmgr -v
and confirm that it is what you think it is.  So much renaming of these files 
can occur that  looking at the sizes is necessary to confirm their identity.  
There are signed and unsigned versions  of grubx64, and only the correct one 
will work.  As an example of this sequence of errors on a non-secure boot 
machine, suppose the bootx64 contains  copy of the non-signed grubx64 (which 
will work), but the boot path is to ubuntu/grubx64 which is the signed version. 
 
  I have not bothered to correct the boot path, since I don't notice any 
delays, and the resolution doesn't bother me, so I may be totally wrong that 
correcting the initial boot path will fix things.  Also I feel I need to learn 
more about NVRAM and how to determine how much free space is available before 
adding things to it like new boot choices -- the Samsung situation of too 
little NVRAM makes me cautious, afraid I'll brick my machine.

2013-04-17 Thread Ubfan
Public bug reported:

Kernel updates on a UEFI pc with secure boot enabled have the vmlinuz
and initrd.img symlinks updated, but they point to the unsigned versions
of the kernel instead of the signed ones.  The pc was set up with secure
boot on, has never been booted with secure boot off, and no runtime
problems have been noted from the wrong symlinks.  Having the links to
the signed versions is highly desirable, in order to set up a USB stick
with its own EFI directory to boot Ubuntu, and not have to worry about
changing the USB stick's grub.cfg files.

2013-04-18 Thread Ubfan
Ubuntu 12.10, updated several times, getting kernels ...17, ...26, and ...27.  
The symlinks in / were examined with ls -l and  the output  indicated that 
the link was to the /boot/vmlinuz-generic file, NOT the 
/boot/vmlinuz...-generic.efi.signed file.
Applying the sbattach command to the /vmlinuz (and to the actual 
/boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-27-generic file) produced a zero length output with the 
warnings:
warning: file-aligned section of .text extends beyond  end of the file
warning: checksum areas are greater than image size. invalid section table?

Applying the sbattach command to the /boot/vmlinuz...-generic.efi.signed file 
produced no errors, and output of length 1911.
I conclude that the kernels in /boot ending in .efi.signed are the signed 
versions, and the ones ending in .generic are not -- with the symlinks in / 
pointing to the unsigned versions.

The file /etc/kernel-img.conf contains symlinks=yes, and bootloader=no

2013-04-19 Thread Ubfan
Bug 1091464 affects me (grub unable to chainload Windows), so as a workaround, 
I have a separate ESP on a USB stick.  The stick boots Ubuntu 12.10 off the 
hard disk, and the stick is not mounted in the filesystem.  I had been updating 
the stick's EFI/ubuntu/grub.cfg as each kernel update occurred, but thought I 
would instead just use the root symlinks, and avoid future grub updates to the 
stick.  That is when I noticed that the symlinks' targets were the unsigned 
versions of the kernel, and reported the bug.
  Now grub WILL boot the unsigned kernels off the existing symlinks, and I can 
see no differences when signed vs. unsigned kernel is used, but I don't know 
how the symlinks are used by other programs, so something may break if the 
symlinks don't target the running kernel.

the F12/select HDD/select ubuntu worked for booting Ubuntu, since secure
boot rejects grubx64.efi, but it turned out the grubx64 silently failed,
then the fallback was to try EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi, which was a copy of

will then mount the ESP off the laptop's hard drive (at /target/boot/efi).  
The install creates a grub.cfg file under /target/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu pointing 
to the target's(uuid) /boot/grub/grub.cfg.  This wrong grub.cfg will prevent 
the laptop from booting Ubuntu without the thumbdrive, throwing the boot into a 
grub  prompt (since the configfile points to the usb and is no longer present).

The install should use the identified EFI boot partition on the
target, so the target may boot when first in boot priority, and not
touch the hard disk's EFI files.  If for any reason a permanent
installation is to be made to a USB device, simply select the hard
disk's ESP instead of one on the target.

[Bug 1159016] Re: 12.10 64bit live-USB successfully boots, but without persistence on UEFI pc

2013-04-28 Thread Ubfan
Thanks Fred. Yes the fix is simple enough, add the word persistent to the 
/boot/grub/grub.cfg  vmlinuz kernel lines.  This bug still affects 13.04 also.  
  I find persistence useful for  setting up my install media with additional 
wireless/ethernet packages which may be needed on some machines.  A Toshiba 
Satellite under 12.10 had neither working wireless nor ethernet (until the 
first kernel upgrade), so I set up the wireless  rt8723 module build and the 
boot-repair deb on another machine, to make the Toshiba installation easier -- 
Ha.

[Bug 1091464] Re: Unable to chainload Windows 8 with Secure Boot enabled

2013-03-29 Thread Ubfan
I have the same error on a Toshiba Satellite S855 S5378 with Windows 8
preinstalled. My workaround is to use a (full install) thumbdrive to
boot Ubuntu 12.10 on the hard disk, and to pull the thumbdrive to boot
windows -- all in secure mode.  Windows boots attempted from the
thumbdrive, give the error message.  The grub command ls will find the
files, but chainloader will not succeed in running them.

[Bug 1091464] Re: Unable to chainload Windows 8 with Secure Boot enabled

2013-05-26 Thread Ubfan
A second workaround, more convienent than the USB boot is to invoke the EFI 
device select menu, select HDD, then select ubuntu or Windows (both of which 
work).  The ubuntu selection starts grub, but from grub, the Windows boot still 
fails with the above chainloader error.  
  With the number of different brands mentioned in this bug, I begin to doubt 
the problem is vendor related.  Maybe something we did caused this, so here's 
what I did:
  My first install was to a USB stick without ann EFI partition( used HD EFI, 
booted Ubuntu OK, did not boot Windows, and killed the Windows boot off the 
hard disk when not present).  Installed to (prepared HD) in this condition, 
worked, but got a grub install error (Windows boot worked again). Installed to 
USB again after putting on a EFI partition, the install still mounted the HD 
EFI, which I manually unmounted and replaced with the USB EFI (this worked).  
At this point, the HD /EFI/ubuntu directory was corrupted, so had to manually 
delete it and replace the signed binaries.  The USB would boot Ubuntu, but not 
Windows, and the HD would boot Windows (default).  Using efibootmgr -v, I could 
see that the ubuntu boot was set up wrong, trying to boot grub instead of shim 
-- but much to my surprise, it still booted, so I surmise a silent failure, 
then a fallback to the /EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi (which was a copy of shim) which 
succeeded.  I manually added (grub-install --uefi-secure-boot /dev/sda) a 
correct shim boot path, which worked too.  I normally now enter F12 to select 
ubuntu or Windows.  Not a totally clean history, but on the other hand, the 
machine has never been out of secure boot, I have never run boot-repair, and 
the only EFI variable manipulation I have done is through grub-install.

[Bug 1159016] [NEW] 12.10 64bit live-USB successfully boots, but without persistence on UEFI pc

2013-03-22 Thread Ubfan
Public bug reported:

The 64but 12.10 2G live USB was set up on a 32bit 12.04.1 non-UEFI host with 1G 
persistence.
The USB boots and persistence works on the non-UEFI host.
The USB boots in Secure boot mode but without persistence on a UEFI host.
The /proc/cmdline on the running live media shows the running kernel to be 
vmlinuz.efi.signed, which of
course does not appear in any syslinux config files.
Looks like something got left out in the secure boot procedure to have 
persistence.

Live media created with the following iso:
800063488 Mar 18 11:14 ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.iso
md5sum
7ad57cadae955bd04019389d4b9c1dcb  ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.iso

so no legacy BIOS is present.

[Bug 1090829] Re: grub-efi fails to install with Input/output error

2013-03-24 Thread Ubfan
How I corrupted the ubuntu directory:
On a Toshiba Satellite S855 with Windows 8 preinstalled and Secure boot 
enabled, successfully installed 12.10 64b to a 4G stick, without making a efi 
partition on it.  This created a good EFI/ubuntu directory on the hard disk, 
but left the EFI/Boot directory containing ony a grub.cfg file to boot the 
stick (so Windows would no longer boot), (although the 4G stick would boot).
  In this condition, I then installed 12.10 to a previously freed up space on 
the hard disk, which failed at the bootloader part, but
did end up in a condition which Windows booted.Tried again to install to 
the 4G stick, this time with an efi partition on the stick, which failed with 
the grub-install dummy error. Looking at the EFI with ls -l, the ubuntu 
directory just showed a name the d for directory, and all else appeared as 
?s.  Apparently, the second (or maybe third) install of Ubuntu corrupted the 
ubuntu directory in the Windows EFI directory,.  Examining the failed stick, 
the /etc/fstab file refers to the hard disk's EFI partition (by UUID), not the 
one on the stick (which was empty).

[Bug 1090829] Re: grub-efi fails to install with Input/output error

2013-03-24 Thread Ubfan
@yannbuntu: My issue is the same as yours: the underlying bad EFI/ubuntu
directory.

I think I can narrow the cause to grub-efi itself:
 1) I have never booted the pc with Secure boot disabled.
 2) I have never run any third party tools like your boot-repair.
 3) I have never added, changed or renamed anything in the EFI partition.
 4) First installation of 12.10 did produce a normal ubuntu directory,
which allowed the installation (but not Windows) to run.
 5) Second and third attempts at installation failed at the grub part.

And yes, after the ubuntu directory is corrupted, grub-efi will complain
about it, along with virtually every other tool attempting to access it.

Repeated runs of dosfsck -r did eventually fix the corruption, by
deleting the ubuntu directory.

[Bug 1090829] Re: grub-efi fails to install with Input/output error

2013-03-26 Thread Ubfan
I see lots of Input/Output errors when accessing the EFI/ubuntu directory, and 
see a (bogus?) read only filesystem message in dmesg:
dmesg lines (probably caused by the ls command):
FAT-fs (sda2); error, fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0)
FAT-fs (sda2): Filesystem has been set read only

But the mount command still lists the sda2 mount as rw.

The Input/Output error appears with any attempted access to the directory:
ls ubuntu, sudo mv ubuntu ..., sudo rm -rf ubuntu all produce the Input/Output 
error.
I forget the error message from the third installation attempt, but it was a 
failure
I expected and might have been the IO error (it was NOT the error window 
produced from
the second installation attempt which apparently caused the corrupted 
directory).

The error window on the second installation (to hard disk) was:
Window title: Unable to install Grub in a dummy
Text: Executing 'grub-install dummy' failed
  This is a fatal error.

Since I fixed the bad directory, and I'm not really working on my own
UEFI machine, I'll hold off on doing anything more, like running the
grub-install.  I hope this helps in improving things.

A guess as to what's wrong:
Looks like an off-by-one error on a loop index in grub install when it 
encounters an existing EFI/ubuntu directory.  The directory is probably 
rewritten with an extra (free) block added at the start. The dosfsck reports 
such in the below terminal capture.  Confirm this by looking at the filesystem 
image posted above.  


The fix to get rid of the corrupted directory (since rm won't work) applying 
Phillip's (comment #25) suggestion:
$ sudo mount -tvfat /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2
ubuntu@ubuntu:/mnt/sda7/etc$ ls !$
ls /mnt/sda2

@yannubuntu: Sorry, bug 1159016 had me running non-persistent on my live
media. At the time I didn't remember to capture any log files on another
usb.

[Bug 1091464] Re: Unable to chainload Windows 8 with Secure Boot enabled

2014-01-05 Thread Ubfan
A forums question http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2197141
indicated that the bug could be made to go away in secure boot by
putting the os I wanted to boot on on the top of the list of bootable
drives.  Now my UEFI Settings for devices does NOT contain OSes, just
devices.  When I select the hard disk on the efi menu, I get another
window listing the OSes to boot.  Maybe this second level of choice has
something to do with the source of the bug.

[Bug 876734] Re: gnome-terminal scroll position indicator invisible when left scroll is selected

2013-12-05 Thread Ubfan
** Description changed:

- Under Unity and Unity-2D, selecting left scroll for a gnome-terminal
- scroll bar position results in the little red bar, indicating where the
- scroll elevator will appear , being invisible, making it difficult to
- find, since random clicks must be applied along the left window border
- to make the scroll elevator appear.
+ Under Unity and Unity-2D gnome-terminal profiles, selecting right scroll
+ (the default) for a gnome-terminal scroll bar position results in the
+ little red bar on the right edge of the terminal, indicating where the
+ scroll elevator will appear.  Selecting the left scroll in the profile
+ however, does not result in the little red tag appearing, so being
+ invisible, it is difficult to find the position to make the scroll bar
+ appear. Random movement of the cursor along the left window border is
+ necessary to make the scroll elevator appear, which then may be grabbed
+ and used normally.  Still a problem in 12.04.3 and 13.10
