Bug#396993: 396993 still present in 2.1.3

2007-09-27 Thread Thanasis Kinias
package xserver-xorg-video-nv
found 396993  1:2.1.3-1
thanks

Just a note that I'm still getting random lockups with 2.1.3.  I know
there's 2.1.5 in sid now but I'm not currently in a position to take
this machine to a full unstable X setup...

( this is the amd64 Presario V6000, BTW:

Bug#396993: xserver-xorg-video-nv: System lockup on screen blanking

2007-08-22 Thread Thanasis Kinias
Package: xserver-xorg-video-nv
Version: 1:2.1.2-2
Followup-For: Bug #396993

Hola,

I've been plagued by hard system lock-ups ever since I switched to the
xorg nv driver from the binary nvidia driver.  This is a Compaq Presario
V6000 laptop (twin-core amd64 CPU) with NVidia motherboard, BTW.

There are two situations where I get lock-ups:

1) on screen blanking:

a) when playing video full-screen, I _always_ get an immediate
lock-up if the screen blanks due to my forgetting to twiddle the
touchpad every few minutes

b) erratically when the machine is left running unattended for
several hours, especially at night -- it seems much more frequent if
the lid is closed, but I haven't been able to pin down a real
pattern

2) on GNOME user switching (probably the same as bug #405179, BTW):  I
hadn't done this in a while (I'm normally the only user of this laptop) 

When I get these lock-ups the following occurs:  screen blanks followed
immediately by loss of keyboard and pointer response, and several
(3-5 or so?) seconds later the cooling fan goes into overdrive, as it
were, and stays that way until hard reboot.  

Obviously I can't see my CPU activity with the screen blanked, but my
semi-educated gut feeling is that the fan suggests that something has
got both CPU cores going at 100% in a loop...

I currently only have network access via public wireless LAN so my
I've not been able to try SSHing in to see if the box is truly dead or
just lacking all keyboard and pointer response.  If I can get a proper
cable or DSL line in here to reestablish my LAN I'll report on that in
future.

I don't think I'm seeing this with any machines these days.  Close away!

Bug#231205: xserver-xfree86: also occurs with [ati] 3D Rage Pro

2004-03-29 Thread Thanasis Kinias
Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.3.0-7
Severity: normal
Followup-For: Bug #231205

Just as with my Radeon system, now that 4.3 hit testing I can see that
the same problem occurs on the box with the 3D Rage Pro, using the ati
driver -- that is, console switching is totally disabled, as is
CTRL-ALT-Backspace to kill X.  All keys involved work fine for other
contexts (at the WM or application level), so it's not a keymapping
problem.

Bug#231205: xserver-xfree86: VT switching impossible on Radeon R250 Lf [Radeon Mobility 9000 M9]

2004-02-04 Thread Thanasis Kinias

Severity: important
Tags: experimental

VT switching simply doesn't work (does nothing).  This bug is present at
least back to -pre1v4, perhaps -pre1v3.  It does not occur using the
vesa driver in 4.3 or 4.2.

radeon VT switch broken in 4.3.0-0pre1v5

2004-01-30 Thread Thanasis Kinias
I just found the thread on the VT problems with i830.  I've a Radeon
R250 in my laptop and have the same problem.  With the generic driver
and 4.2 from Sarge things were fine.  I just get no VT switching with
the experimental 4.3 packages, since I started using them (-0pre1v3
IIRC).

I never filed a bug because I was under the impression we weren't to
file bugs on experimental packages...

Please CC me as I'm not on debian-x.

Cheers,

Bug#189956: xterm: Non-ASCII chars omitted in window title

2003-04-21 Thread Thanasis Kinias
Package: xterm
Version: 4.2.1-3
Severity: normal

When the window title is set with 'echo -ne "\033]0;föø\007"', for
example, non-ASCII chars are dropped, rendering the title only `f'.
(For comparison, in Eterm or rxvt, the window title `föø' appears).

If an application (vim, for example) sets the xterm window name, the
characters render properly.
