[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1870833] Re: pulseaudio crashed with SIGABRT in pa_alsa_ucm_add_profile_set() from module_alsa_card_LTX_pa__init()
Besides this Whoopsie catch of pulseaudio crashing, the result is that audio doesn't work at all on the system. Settings -> Sound shows no options for the output or input devices, the "Test" button says to click on a speaker to test it but then shows zero speakers, just the icon of a person, etc. I am happy to try daily builds or patched versions on this motherboard if someone wants to try to debug it. (Also, comment #7 says "tracking in (url)" but I as an ordinary user don't seem to have access to that URL. It just shows me a graph of all error reports for all releases. So I can't see if y'all have a workaround that I could try, or want people who get this error to run some diagnostic or anything...) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1870833 Title: pulseaudio crashed with SIGABRT in pa_alsa_ucm_add_profile_set() from module_alsa_card_LTX_pa__init() Status in PulseAudio: New Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/468f63163a916557999ec0a7aac3459fa638a2d1 --- gigabyte X370 Gaming 5 main board, Ryzen 1600 16gb ram.

For example, I made a screencast for a few seconds (with Ctl-Alt- Shift-R) and then played it from "totem ~/Videos/Screencast*.webm", and this error came out on stderr. If I just run "totem &" the error doesn't come out -- until I select a video from totem's interface.

I ran the software updater and noticed that it installed a new pulseaudio: pulseaudio: Installed: 1:13.99.1-1ubuntu3 Candidate: 1:13.99.1-1ubuntu3 After rebooting the system, I'm running this version.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1888088] [NEW] [Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 14ARE05] Display won't rotate, nor do fractional scaling
Public bug reported: Opening Settings -> Display and selecting an orientation other than Landscape doesn't work. Similarly, selecting Fractional Scaling and then picking a scale factor has no effect. This is a recently installed Ubuntu 20.04, fully updated, on a recently released laptop/tablet that uses an AMD Ryzen 4500U integrated CPU/GPU. It is possible that the GPU is not being detected by Ubuntu and that is the root cause of the problem. I couldn't find an easy explanation online about how to tell whether a GPU was detected or is in use. I did try running "tlp-stat -g" to get graphics status, but it returns without printing anything except its version number (1.3.1). When I choose an orientation, such as Portrait Right, the setting changes and an "Apply" button appears in the top of the Settings window. When I press it, up pops up a dialog asking whether I want to "Keep these display settings?" with two options, keep or revert. The rest of the screen goes grey behind the dialog box, but I can already see that the "Orientation" setting back in the Settings->Display window has been reverted to "Landscape" without me doing anything. Whether I choose keep or revert, or merely let it time out after 20 seconds, the result remains the same -- the display stays in Landscape mode and the setting that I had made is reverted. Regarding scaling, I can set the display scale to 100% (default) or 200%, successfully. When I turn on the "Fractional Scaling" slider, the graphics around the edge of the screen increase in size (the icons in the left-hand dock, the text in the top bar), but the Scale settings do not change (they remain "100%" and "200%"). However, if I switch to a different setting (for example, "Mouse & Touchpad") and then back to "Displays", the Scale settings have changed. I have included three screenshots (original screen, Fractional Scaling on, and after switching to and from Displays. When I attempt to set a fractional scale such as 125%, the "Apply" button appears in the upper right corner. When I press that, the display does not scale, a pop-up asks if I want to keep or revert the setting, but looking back at the Displays settings, the Scale has already reverted to 100% (as above with the Orientation). The display has been rock-solid before this, but now it started showing artifacts, such as previous copies of the Displays window. I've enclosed a screen shot. Merely taking a screen shot also wiped out parts of the display to white; I took another shot to show that.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1888088] Re: [amdgpu] [Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 14ARE05] Display won't rotate, nor do fractional scaling
I found a way to enable the amdgpu support for this hardware in the standard LTS kernel! Based on this comment on a YouTube video reviewing this laptop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjegdWtHuOE&lc=UgzbtkQw4vuk6ls- 6vF4AaABAg Add "amdgpu.exp_hw_support=1" to the kernel command line in /etc/default/grub, run update-grub, and reboot. This FIXES ALL THE ISSUES that I encountered in this bug. I am running linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic:amd64 (5.4.0-42.46) which is the current LTS kernel. The same poster also recommended turning on this Firefox about:config setting, to avoid screen tearing while playing YouTube videos: layers.acceleration.force-enabled. I have seen reports (comments below that same YouTube video, and elsewhere) that there are small kernel patches in the 5.7 kernels that also fix the screen brightness settings on this hardware. Perhaps a future Ubuntu kernel update can cherry-pick those fixes, and automatically enable the experimental hardware support for this integrated AMD Ryzen 5 4500U CPU/GPU? Would be good for these fixes to get into the Ubuntu 20.04.1 point release, too; these laptops are very fast and cost $600 so they are selling very well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1888088 Title: [amdgpu] [Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 14ARE05] Display won't rotate, nor do fractional scaling Status in mutter package in Ubuntu: New Status in xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Opening Settings -> Display and selecting an orientation other than Landscape doesn't work.

Thank you. Yes, about:buildconfig shows the --disable-updater flag. And software-properties-gtk --open-tab=2 showed that the setting for security updates was to download and install them immediately. I have changed that setting to only download security updates rather than to install them immediately. This should allow me to schedule updates to Firefox when its ongoing continuity is not critical. (Somehow when I run update-manager, it regularly finds "Security updates" that have not been immediately applied, even though the setting was formerly "Download and install immediately". Are "Security updates" in update-manager different from the "security pocket" that Firefox updates occur in?

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 876107] [NEW] relnotes in 11.10 say to install gnome-panel but it doesn't install
Public bug reported: I hate Unity and am only interested in running new Ubuntu's if I can install gnome. The release notes here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/ReleaseNotes?action=show&redirect=OneiricOcelot%2FTechnicalOverview say: GNOME 3.2 is included and is a major upgrade from GNOME 2.32 included in Ubuntu 11.04. GNOME Classic is no longer installed by default, but can be enabled after installation completes by installing gnome-panel THIS IS FALSE. It's easy to reproduce. While running the Live image (desktop-i386) from USB stick, I got this result: apt-get install gnome-panel Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Package gnome-panel is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'gnome-panel' has no installation candidate The same result occurs whether or not I have run "apt-get update". To Fix: (1) Make gnome-panel installable from the repos. AND/OR (2) Change the release notes so that they don't tell people to do things that fail. Best of all would be: (3) Quit with the Not-Invented-Here attitude, don't force the Unity crud on everyone; make a simple way to delete Unity and install Gnome by default (or merely INSTALL it by default, next to Unity, and let people pick it in the login screen). ** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-panel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876107 Title: relnotes in 11.10 say to install gnome-panel but it doesn't install Status in “gnome-panel” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I hate Unity and am only interested in running new Ubuntu's if I can install gnome.
