Bug#444035: xkb-data: latam layout: no dead_tilde
Package: xkb-data
Version: 1.0~cvs.20070721-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi!
/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/latam, Spanish Latin-American keyboard, layout
doesn't include any dead_tilde. It does include 3 asciitilde, however:
key { [ 4, dollar, asciitilde, dollar ] };
key { [ plus, asterisk, asciitilde, dead_macron ] };
key { [ntilde, Ntilde, asciitilde, dead_doubleacute ] };
Of these 3, the one that is printed on the keyboards is the , and it's
the one that makes more sense as a dead key (many neighbouring keys are
dead).
Recently (as in etch's 0.9-4 vs lenny's 1.0~cvs.20070721-1), the Spanish
layout has changed one of its asciitilde to dead_tilde. The chosen key was
, because that's the one that has the tilde printed on the key.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9763
In the Latinamerican case, the printed one is , thus, I'm suggesting
changing that one to dead_tilde. Similar as to what the original bug
report showed, the ibm globalization site, cites this key as "combining
tilde":
http://www-306.ibm.com/software/globalization/topics/keyboards/KBD171.jsp
I'm not sure about . It could be good to have it as dead too, for
consistency (Spanish and Latin American are both common in many Spanish
speaking countries), but having 2 out of 3 as dead might be overkill.
Thus, I'm attaching a patch that only changes the key
This should be sent upstream, of course. But I don't have a user at
bugs.freedesktop.org
Love,
Marga

Bug#444035: Reopening due to a revert
So, due to the complaints in: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=477197 The changes asked in this bug were reverted. So, I'm reopening this bug, because I consider it is still a bug not to have a dead_tilde. I was never aware that there was a "poll" going on, and if I had been aware, I'm sure that plenty of people from Latin America would have reacted and expressed their opinion. It looks like most people their are from Spain and not Latin America. This is the text that I already submitted to the freedesktop bug: --- --- --- I'm sorry that I didn't react earlier, I had no warning that this bug, or it's sister bug http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9763 had been subjected to a poll and were being reverted. I think that it's a serious mistake to have no dead tildes in a Spanish language keyboard. In the latinamerican keyboards we now have 3 asciitilde and NO dead_tilde. While in the Spanish keyboard (the one in bug 9763), there are 2 asciitilde and NO dead_tilde. Even if Spanish itself does not include ã or õ, Portuguese does. And we live in an integrated world. Specially in Latin America, where the biggest country of the region is Brazil, which speaks Portuguese, not Spanish. It's very important for all of us to be able to write the characters of our neighbour countries. Take for example the case of the argentinian NIC service which from now on will allow domains with special characters: http://www.nic.ar/616, it not only allows the special characters for Spanish, but also the ones for Portuguese. The current keyboard has a dead ` and a dead ^, which are characters only used in French, yet nobody complains that these should be made non-dead. So, why do we allow for compatibility with French and not with Portuguese? Most people complained about this because of habit more than because of real causes. Yet sometimes changes have to be made that mean that people have to get used to them, and eventually they'll be glad that the change was made. I think that the most sensible place for the dead tilde is near all the other dead keys (), but if people so vehemently opose to that, then leave the dead tilde in the or key. But PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE allow us to have at least one dead_tilde. Also, I don't think this should be "polled" but rather a standard should be used. But, if you have to take it to a poll, please warn everybody that is affected. All the people in Latin America, specially those in countries that are part of Mercosur eventually need some Portuguese characters, however it looks like most people that expressed their opinions were from Spain, not from Latin America. --- --- --- I find phrases like "There is no character in the Spanish language that would need it as a dead key" to be extremely narrow-minded. If we were to be fair, then all the dead keys except ' and " would go away, because à â ā å are not part of the Spanish language, yet we allow them to allow people to write in the languages of neighbour countries. For me, and I suspect that for most of all the other people in Latin America, it's much more essential to have a dead_tilde than all the others weird dead keys. Please, please, please, include at least one dead_tilde. Even if it would mean not going with the standard, I would settle for (ñ) in both keyboards (Spanish and Latin American), but we definitely need one. -- Besos, Marga
Bug#444035: Regarding keyboard standards
The links to the IBM pages are broken, because they are now pdf files instead of web pages, and were moved from http to ftp. The whole list can be found at: http://www-306.ibm.com/software/globalization/topics/keyboards/registry_index.jsp And these are the links for the layouts in question: Latin American: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/software/globalization/keyboards/KBD171.pdf Spanish: ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/software/globalization/keyboards/KBD173.pdf As you might see in these pdfs, the tilde is shown to be dead. It's located in in the "es" version and in in the "la" version. I also found this information from Microsoft, for Microsoft Windows 95. I couldn't find any references for anything more modern, but I think it has stayed the same: Latin American: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc195150.aspx Spanish: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc195122.aspx The fact that the tildes are shown with white background instead of gray, indicates that they are dead. -- Besos, ,''`.

Bug#608616: Mobility Radeon HD 4200: Black screen after resuming from suspend / no-hibernation
Package: xserver-xorg-video-radeon Version: 1:6.13.1-2+squeeze1 Severity: normal Hi! I'm working with an Asus EeePC 1215T, that comes with a Mobility Radeon HD 4200, after installing a fresh squeeze into it, suspend and hibernate didn't work properly: suspend worked, but when returning, no video returned, hibernation didn't work (black screen but no power off). After installing the xserver driver from maverick (1:6.13.1-1ubuntu5), both started working properly. So it seems that there's a difference in the patches applied in one and the other that makes suspension/hibernation work with one and not the other. Before using Ubuntu's packages, I tried blacklisting the radeon module, and it also didn't work. I tried using the radeonhd package, but that left me with no video. After looking at the changelogs and differences between the two packages, I have the sensation that the problem might be related to kms, but I really don't know enough about X to debug this myself. I'm in need of a few extra pointers as to what to do/test next. In the info included by reportbug this (apparently relevant) file is missing: Contents of /etc/modprobe.d/radeon-kms.conf: options radeon modeset=1 In the logs below, I have removed the messages that were redundant (lines and lines of the same FBDEV error). The weird "atom" errors that show in the dmesg logs appear when hibernating/dehibernating, and are very surprising, taking into account this is NOT an Atom netbook. Please let me know what other information I should include, or what other tests I should perform. -- Love, Marga. -- Package-specific info: /var/lib/x11/X.roster does not exist. /var/lib/x11/X.md5sum does not exist.

I forgot to include this in the report, sorry. I have already tried with the kernel and X from experimental, no different outcome. Only after trying both from experimental did I switch to trying Ubuntu's. Also, once I installed the X driver from Ubuntu, all 3 kernels (Maverick's, Squeeze's and Experimental's suspended and hibernated correctly), so it looks like it's not a kernel problem, it's an X problem. So, newer kernel doesn't help, the kms file is not missing.

Only switching back and forth between kernels. I never tried downgrading the X driver back to squeeze's. I could try that, my guess is that it's a code change and so it won't work, but I'll try it just to document it. > > After looking at the changelogs and differences between the two packages, I > > have the sensation that the problem might be related to kms, but I really > > don't know enough about X to debug this myself. > > KMS should be enabled by default in both cases, so colour me skeptical. > But you can try flipping it with the radeon kernel module parameter > 'modeset' to see if it makes any difference in either case. > > Otherwise, apart from any possible code differences between the driver > package versions (haven't checked yet), I was refering to code differences regarding kms.

Not -core. I did install xserver-xorg from maverick, although I'm not sure if it ships any interesting files. The machine is not mine and I'll have limited access to it after today, which was why I tried to get help debugging this on IRC as quickly as possible, but unfortunately couldn't get it.

I tested it and this was right, after reverting everything back to squeeze, suspend/hibernate work fine. Now I feel like I'm going crazy. It looks like installing ubuntu's packages left something behind that made it work, because with a 100% squeeze system it works fine, when it didn't work 3 days ago, before installing maverick's packages. > KMS should be enabled by default in both cases, so colour me skeptical. > But you can try flipping it with the radeon kernel module parameter > 'modeset' to see if it makes any difference in either case. It was set to 1. I tried setting it to 0, and something new happened: both suspend and hibernate worked but when it came back it didn't show X, it showed some kernel messages, but doing Ctrl-Alt-F7 worked.

Well, I already pasted the radeon-kms.conf. I had no xorg.conf for the
initial tests, but I do have an xorg.conf now, because I've been
configuring the synaptics input device and a created an xorg.conf for that.
I could try moving it away and checking if it works or fails. Will get
back about this.

No, the kernel is the same.

Re-installing that machine is not really possible. But it's a really
nice model, and I think I might be getting hold of another one soon.

Bug#229785: sessreg: session overwritten can be due to ut_id 4 byte length limit
Package: xutils
Version: 4.2.1-12.1
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #229785
Hi!
I've been investigating a little bit more about this bug and I've found
some extra information.
In sessreg.c, lines 371 - 385:
-*-*-*-*-*-
if (line) {
int i;
/*
* this is a bit crufty, but
* follows the apparent conventions in
* the ttys file. ut_id is only 4 bytes
* long, and the last 4 bytes of the line
* name are written into it, left justified.
*/
i = strlen (line);
if (i >= sizeof (u->ut_id))
i -= sizeof (u->ut_id);
else
i = 0;
(void) strncpy (u->ut_id, line + i, sizeof (u->ut_id));
-*-*-*-*-*-
The thing is that if you have different host names, with the same
display numbers, such as "test:0" and "fist:0", this is keeping only
the last 4 characters of the name, and will consider that these two
hosts are in fact only one host.
I think that doing a hash, or something like that would be better.
Hope it helps solve this bug.
Love,
Margarita Manterola.

Bug#229785: sessreg.c bug
Hi!
I reported the bug 229785 referred to a problem with host registering in
sessreg.c.
After a whole night of hacking with two other friends, we came up with a
patch to sessreg.c that hashes the display instead of using the last 4
characters. We think this is pretty nice.
We tested it with a dictionary, and it lost only 1 entry in 1000 and
15 entries in 5000 lines. We think it might take a little bit longer to
make the transaction, but that's not really an issue.
Please give us some feedback if you think it worth.
Oh, and is there some special types we should have used instead of
unsigned long int and char, to guarantee 4 and 1 byte?
Love,
Margarita Manterola.

Bug#268759: [nv] Sarge xserver-xfree86 breaks display
Package: xserver-xfree86 Severity: important Hi! In one of the labs I administer, we just updated all our machines to the latest Sarge and all the boxes that were using the "nv" driver had the same problem: the mouse pointer was a big garbage square, and the video had problems in general, lots of garbage on screen. This could be easily solved by adding: Option "HWCursor" "false" Option "Accel" "false" To the Device section. It's an easy fix, although it's turning off 2D acceleration :-\. These machines were working fine with the previous Sarge version of xserver-xfree86, and we never used the proprietary drivers. Apparently some changes were made to the nv driver for NVidia support, that broke in these machines. These machines are not updated periodically. Last update was done about 5 or 6 months ago. So the change probably happened some time in that span (I know it's a lot, sorry for that). I'm sorry I don't have the complete hardware information, since I'm not in the lab right now. I hope you can have a look at this, and I'll try to submit the hardware information as soon as I can. Love, Marga.

The one that was in sid last saturday afternoon (Sep 3rd 17:00 GMT).
Your upload was after that? I had understood that the changes to the nv

Anyway, I'll try again tomorrow. I only tested with one machine, and I

Bug#292004: xserver-xfree86: [trident] "bumps" Xscreensaver crashes X
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-10 Severity: important Hi! This machine from which I'm writing has been experiencing a very nasty problem: X crashes when the bumps xscreensaver starts. I'm reporting this bug to xserver-xfree86 because no program should be able to crash X. Also, this bug happens only with "trident" video driver. Selecting "vesa" (as in the XF86Config-4 included with this report) it works fine. I can reproduce this bug in this machine and in a completely different one, that has only one similiarity with this one: the trident video card (I mean, different processors, different memory, different motherboard, but both have Trident video cards). The workaround is easy: use vesa. But the fact is that it's a very nasty bug, since if the user is unaware of it, he/she can lose all open documents when the screensaver appears. I haven't been able to trigger this bug by any other program that the screensaver mentioned.

Federal, state and local officials failed to heed forecasts of disaster from hurricane experts. Evacuation plans, never practical, were scrapped entirely for New Orleans's poorest and least able. And once floodwaters rose, as had been long predicted, the rescue teams, medical personnel and emergency power necessary to fight back were nowhere to be found.In July 2004, Maestri had participated in an exercise called Hurricane Pam, a simulation of a Category 3 storm drowning New Orleans. Emergency planners had concluded that a real Pam would create a flood of unimaginable proportions, killing tens of thousands of people, wiping out hundreds of thousands of homes, shutting down southeast Louisiana for months.Allen said the pumps are steadily coming back on line.Story continues below ?By 2 p.m. EDT, Ophelia was centered 260 miles east-southeast of Charleston, S.C., and about 250 miles south of Cape Hatteras with maximum sustained wind at 80 mph, the National Hurricane Center said. It had meandered slightly but essentially was stationary after following a wandering course since it became a tropical storm Wednesday off the coast of Florida."Everything is related to the unwatering at this point," he added.Asked about Brown, Allen said he spoke to him Friday.
Bug#362255: Problem when trying to upgrade from 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4
Package: x11-common Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 Severity: normal Hi! When trying to upgrade from the currently installed version 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 of x11-common to 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 I get the following problem: Preconfiguring packages ... (Reading database ... 213727 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to replace x11-common 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 (using .../x11-common_6.9.0.dfsg.1-6_all.deb) ...

Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_6.9.0.dfsg.1-6_all.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) I'm guessing that this was probably fixed in the next version, but I think that it's still important to document that the bug was there. I don't think there's a real way of fixing the bug. But the problem can be solved doing: dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_6.9.0.dfsg.1-6_all.deb :).

Bug#362492: This is an FHS violation
severity 362492 serious thanks Justification: having a configuration file in /usr/lib is a violation to FHS. The configuration file should be in /etc/ It should replace the old file as any other config file. i.e. check if the files are the original ones, and if they are not, warn the user about it. The current behaviour is unacceptable. -- Besos, Maggie. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#197918: xfonts-100dpi: Helvetica (adobe) not exported through xfs
Package: xfonts-100dpi Version: 4.2.1-6 Severity: important Hi! I'm setting up a Linux Thin-Client that uses the X client applications and fonts from this server. The applications and fonts work fine, except for the "Helvetica (adobe)" *bold* font, which is the default sans-serif font for Galeon. It's a really weird bug. We've been trying to find what was wrong with our configurations for many days, but it turned out that everything was fine, we just changed the font to a different sans-serif font, and it works nicely now. I thought I would let you know that the font is not working with xfs (although it works alright for the local machine).

Bug#268759: [nv] Sarge xserver-xfree86 breaks display
Hola Branden Robinson!

Uh, ok... But may I ask why? I mean, what I did wrong? I kind of like
not using reportbug :)
If it's because of the versions and stuff, in this particular case it
would have no effect, because I was reporting a bug from home, while the
bug was actually happening at Uni.
(I had to leave in a hurry and I was not returning to the lab in a week,
so I wanted to report the bug, eventhough I was not in the machine).
