Bug#926032: [chromium] Buggy / Solarized videos

2019-06-15 Thread victor . boyau
Hello,

Replying to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=926032#95

My answer is probably confusing. I am still hit with the bug reported as being 
closed. Because hardware video decode is now ON by default and cannot be 
disabled with the previous workaround anymore.

Bug#926032: [chromium] Buggy / Solarized videos

2019-06-15 Thread victor . boyau
Hello,

Removing the option to enable/disable hardware accel is the right move to get 
rid of the problem at the moment. However this last patch (Source-Version: 
75.0.3770.90-1) does the exact opposite of its intent : the option to 
enable/disable accel is removed AND hardware accel is now always on instead of 
being disabled by default.

Maybe this bug occurs only with some GPU models. I am only using AMD GPUs since 
almost 20 years. The bug hits me when using a Radeon HD6770 (Juniper) or a 
Radeon RX560 (Baffin) either with radeon or amdgpu drivers, respectively.

Regards

V.B.

Hello,

Unfortunately the new release 74.0.3729.108-1 does not fix anything regarding 
this issue. As soon as I disabled the workaround we discussed earlier in order 
to use hardware decoding again, solarized videos came back on many web sites.

Hello,

This workaround works well, thank you, Ed.

However it is a short term solution. Why would we have to disable a feature 
like hardware acceleration and revert to a sluggish (and cpu hungry) software 
rendering in order to (barely) make things work like they did before in 
previous releases ?

Bug#902560: [console-setup] Bad (thousands) separator symbol in the console font

2018-06-27 Thread victor . boyau
Package: console-setup
Version: 1.184
Severity: normal

Hello,

Unfortunately, bug 895047 is still unsolved with console-setup 1.184. Using 
UTF-8 French locales here. The new "narrow no-break space" seems to be also 
replaced anywhere else with the same "diamond" character on the console 
whatever language I can read is chosen. This occurs with at least Lat-15, Uni1, 
Uni2 and Uni3 console character sets.

Bug#895047: Missing thousands separator symbol in the default console font

Sorry, these ones appear to be standard no-break spaces in French translation. 
So this is probably irrelevant regarding the current bug in console-setup-linux.

Hello,

Unfortunately, this bug is still present and unsolved with console-setup 1.184. 
Using UTF-8 French locales here. This new "narrow no-break space" is also 
replaced with the same "tofu" character on the console. For example, in 
aptitude, reading the checksecurity package description.

Bug#887404: libreoffice: LibreOffice eats up 100%CPU even without any document loaded

2018-01-16 Thread victor . boyau
Hello,

I found that this bug came back since libglib2.0-* packages were upgraded from 
2.54.2-5 (previous testing version) to 2.54.3-1 (unstable -> testing). 
Reverting to the previous testing version solves the problem.
