[Bug 33950] Re: hdaps Y axis inverted
Leann: I'm running hardy fully updated to this morning's packages and there's still no movement at all from hdaps. While I can't attest to its quality, having never used it - the tp_smapi driver brings significantly more useful features than an improved hdaps driver, ie battery charge thresholds. So anything that can get tp_smapi included is probably a good thing. It's not in the vanilla kernel though for some reason. Shem is the upstream author aiui - perhaps he/she/it can shed some light on the driver's status. -- hdaps Y axis inverted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/33950 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel ii xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.2.0+git20080107-1ubuntu1 When I resume from suspend there seem to be some issues with the display. 2D widgets that don't repaint themselves pick up historical corruption (e.g. Network Manager's icon shows a solid blur of the trails from where it was spinning and connecting, or firefox scrolling only scrolls a few lines at the bottom and generally gets messed up). Causing these widgets to redraw (e.g. placing another window over them and then moving it out of the way) temporarily repairs them, but the errors will return if they subsequently render something. GL (e.g. glxgears) simply gives an empty window. If compiz is enabled on resume, the display is entirely blank.

A little while ago there was a discussion here about fsck running at boot, and the program AutoFsck. The author of AutoFsck just contacted me and asked me what his next step should be. I don't have any official standing in the Ubuntu dev community, so I'm just going to forward his message out here in the hopes that it will get opened up for a more comprehensive discussion. Evan PS I also sent him a link to join this list, so hopefully he'll be able to contribute to the discussion. I too was contacted by a Jonathon Musther. But the email I received was different. It reads... Hi Chris Jones I wouldn\'t normally use this mailing list for anything other than announcements about new versions of AutoFsck. But I have been inundated with people requesting information on how to promote AutoFsck, and get it (or something with the functionality) into the Ubuntu distribution.

Re: Patent issues with automatic codec installation
- Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2007 13:35:30 +1300 From: Aaron Whitehouse [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Patent issues with automatic codec installation (was: Automatic installation of DVD CSS support) To: Christofer C. Bell [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 I would like to draw attention to a proposal that I think is very important for Ubuntu as a desktop deistribution: the possibility of automatically enabling CSS decryption support for DVDs, like it is already possible to retrieve support for certain audio/video endcodings automatically. Please read the comments in the bug you linked to for explanation as to why this will not happen. As the comments in the bug state, the reason DeCSS is not included is (I imagine) to avoid violating the DMCA. The more that I think about the automatic codec installation of Ubuntu, the more that I am concerned that the current approach places the distribution in murky legal territory. Allowing (encouraging?) a user to install patent-violating codecs may not infringe the DMCA or copyright, but it still may not be the best idea. Think of Napster being sued for allowing others to infringe copyright. A large number of people respond to this by saying that they live in Europe and that their country does not enforce software-only patents. That doesn't matter much, considering that a patent-holder would bring any proceedings in countries that did enforce their patents. Fedora handles the situation with http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/FeatureCodecBuddy - which allows users to purchase non-infringing codecs from Fluendo. http://www.fluendo.com/press/releases/PR-2007-01.html Perhaps a good compromise would be to default to Codec Buddy and have a button for Multiverse Codecs. When the user clicks the button, they could be presented with a message *actively discouraging* them from using the multiverse versions and highlighting that they are likely to break the law if they do so. In an attempt to disarm critics, I ask you to read: http://www.linux.com/articles/59830 On the patent question, Fluendo's official stance is that it opposes software patents, but that in areas where they are the law, it has no choice but to obey the statutes. Perhaps more importantly, customers have no choice either. Some critics of Fluendo's plugin products are quick to point out that there are freely available, often GPLed libraries that decode the same formats. That is, however, irrelevant: the non-free formats are non-free not because of the license on the source code, but because of the patents on the format. Wherever possible, Fluendo encourages its customers to use patent-free formats. In GStreamer we try to make sure Ogg and Dirac support everything that is possible to do with the non-free formats. So at the end of the day we feel that by moving people toward Linux and now Solaris, and to using an open source framework like GStreamer which has top-notch support for free codecs, we do more good than evil for the goal of removing the plight of patented codecs, even if our way of achieving that is by offering those non-free codecs for sale. [...] Non-free media formats are fundamentally at odds with free software, not because of source code licensing but because of patents. Ignoring that fact can mean taking a serious legal risk. As Dave Neary of Wengo so concisely expressed it on his personal blog: People should realise that proprietary codecs are just that -- proprietary. And if they cost money, that's a great way to realise. I am in no way associated with Fluendo (except for being a participant in the codecs beta testing). I am simply concerned that Ubuntu makes it too easy to infringe patents. As I raised on the mailing list and in a bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/173161 users often end up infringing patents that they never even use because the codecs are distributed in composite packages. Regards, Aaron -- FSF Associate Member: 5632 http://www.fsf.org Since when should linux users have to pay for codecs? Bloody hell. Are we heading down the Windows path? I would never in my life pay for any codecs? Why? Simply because a user shouldn't have to.

I thoroughly agree with mark thomas - what is being proposed here will override the defaults set by hardware manufacturers and OEMs. Perhaps it is helpful for some people, but it's a blanket decision that will change the behaviour of a lot of systems - behaviour that was chosen by the people who know the hardware best (ie the people who made and/or integrated it). I'm not sure if prompting the user is a wise idea because many people will not understand what it means, and since we can't predictably scale back the power management they'll just say ooh that sounds bad and click to turn the power management off, which may not be a good thing. We also don't know what increasing too fast means, since different drives have different levels of robustness.

Brian: Thanks for reminding me that the Old_age values don't always necessarily start at 100. I apologise if anyone thinks I am being harsh, but I see a lot of hair pulling about how drives are going to die in 6 months, with numbers that are very hard to interpret (something I am clearly guilty of, because there were some mistakes in my comment). It's also interesting to see VALUEs of 001 in ubuntu_demon's comment - I find it extremely hard to believe that this is actually true. It's yet more evidence of vendor specific SMART behaviour, which puts even more doubt on the available data, especially since those posts don't appear to be shortly followed by VALUEs of 000 with a FAILING_NOW tag. I suggest that anyone who is genuinely worried about their disk confirm the output of smartctl by running a tool from their hard disk's vendor (the smartmontools FAQ lists http://www.benchmarkhq.ru/english.html?/be_hdd2.html as a good source thereof, and has information about ways to run them, since they are mostly MS-DOS tools). -- High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime
This issue has been extensively covered in the press recently and, as should be blindingly obvious by now, is, by and large, nonsense. First of all, let me make this absolutely clear - you should pay ZERO attention to the number reported by smartctl for Load_Cycle_Count. It is probably not a raw counter showing the number of times your drive heads have unparked. If you don't believe me, look at this output from my Thinkpad X40: 193 Load_Cycle_Count0x0032 070 070 000Old_age Always - 3037783573354 That number is over 3 *trillion*, which, for a 14 month old laptop is physically impossible, it would have to be unparking the heads 80,000 times *a second*. Again, this is physically impossible. What you should be paying attention to are the THRESH, VALUE and WORST columns. This is an Old_age SMART value, so the VALUE starts at 100 and counts down to 0. When it crosses THRESH it means your drive manufacturer believes your drive has reached the end of its probable lifespan. So, in my above example, the THRESH, VALUE and WORST columns are 70, 70 and 0 respectively. In this case VALUE and WORST will always be the same because it's simply counting down over time and in this case, I have used about 30% of the expected lifespan of my drive, which, at 14 months and it being a rubbishy 1.8 laptop drive, seems entirely reasonable. My value will be lower than a stock install would because I've had laptop_mode enabled for at least a year, so the heads are unparking quite aggressively. So, to be absolutely, entirely clear about this, Ubuntu is not killing my hard disk, no matter what Slashdot and misinformed blog posts claim. To everyone who has commented on this bug with wild claims about how much their Load_Cycle_Count value is increasing, go back to smartctl's output and check the VALUE and THRESH columns and I am entirely confident you will find that your drive is well within expected lifespan. The reason is because the RAW_VALUE column is entirely manufacturer specific. A few drives will actually report a counter of the number of times they've unparked the heads, but many/most report something that we have no idea about the meaning of. It's not a meaningful number. SMART is not designed to report meaningful numbers like that, it is designed to provide an indication of health that is interpreted by the firmware on the drive itself, this is what the VALUE, THRESH and WORST columns are for.

Thanks very much Bryce.

[Bug 133118] Re: very corrupt X after suspend/resume
Personally, I suspend/resume multiple times a day, so either version of the driver is going to leave me with largely unusable 3D. I guess it would be more useful to have the old driver and know that I can at least restart the server if I want to run google earth or whatever. If we can't fix it then this chipset should definitely be blacklisted for compiz. -- very corrupt X after suspend/resume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133118 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 148571] Changing hostname breaks X session
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools This is mentioned in #103960, but is not the primary focus of that bug. Changing the hostname via the gnome network admin tool asks the user if they want to change the hostname immediately. If they do so, their X session will be fairly broken because their X cookie is now invalid. It should probably prompt the user to reboot to change the hostname, or at the very least warn them that they should restart really very soon. ** Affects: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Changing hostname breaks X session https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148571 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
