[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1815339] Re: Printer stopped printing paper size 4"x6" after update ghostscript to 9.26

2020-11-21 Thread Skippy le Grand Gourou
FWIW, for distributions which haven't published the fix yet (e.g.
Slackware AFAICS), RIP_MAX_CACHE can be overwritten by adding this line
to cupsd.conf (also editable through CUPS web interface on
localhost:631) :

RIPCache 0

(replace 0 by whatever suits for you).

Bug description:
  
  I have an issue with Ghostscript and printing.
  I use Gutenprint for my Canon MG5440, and I cannot print a photo 4"x6" (or 
6"x4"), it does not print anything, however I still able to print A4 paper size.
  I use Ubuntu 18.04 and Gutenprint 5.3.1.

  The printing fail with message:
  
  [Job 143] Start rendering...
  [Job 143] Processing page 1...
  [Job 143]  Unable to open the initial device, quitting.
  [Job 143] Rendering completed
  ...
  [Job 143] PID 24869 (/usr/lib/cups/filter/gstoraster) stopped with status 1.
  ...
  [Job 143] printer-state-message="Filter failed"
  [Job 143] printer-state-reasons=none

  The message "Unable to open the initial device, quitting" comes from
  Ghostscript.

  
  When I downgrade Ghostscript to 9.22, 
  I am again able to print 4"x6" paper size.

  To downgrade: apt install ghostscript=9.22~dfsg+1-0ubuntu1
  libgs9=9.22~dfsg+1-0ubuntu1 libgs9-common=9.22~dfsg+1-0ubuntu1

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1501421] [NEW] Ubuntu 14.04 displays strange characters

2015-09-30 Thread Skippy le Grand Gourou
Public bug reported:

Quite often, when "opening" the laptop after it has been "closed" for a
while, the display is completely messed up, i.e. most characters are
corrupted with alien-like characters.  Attached is an explicit
screenshot of Thunderbird tabs (the first tab should read "Courrier
entrant", the second line "Relever ; Écrire ; ? ; Adresses ; Étiquettes
; Filtre rapide", etc.), but most applications (Firefox, gnome-terminal,
LibreOffice, Gnumeric, windows titles and menus, right-click menus,
etc.) are affected.  Some of these issues (e.g. tabs) can be fixed by
hovering them with the cursor, but not all.

Similar issues have been reported elsewhere :
