[Bug 1327014] Re: Linux kernel 2.6.32-61 hangs gnome desktop on ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx

2014-06-07 Thread Alex Robinson
Same thing on two quite different systems (different in hardware, that
is). Both are Lucid Desktop 64-bit.

Sometimes it takes a while for the freeze to happen.

One system auto-logins and it may not freeze until a GUI program is run
from the Desktop. Sometimes not even then, but later, at random.
Terminal programs are fine. I had thought this system had a simple
problem with my renaming a .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart because
the first freeze happened exactly when I did that.

The other system freezes showing the grayed login box just after hitting
Enter on the password entry dialog box in the login screen.

Both systems consistently have the problem.

sudo restart gdm   makes them work for a moment or more.

apport-collect seems to be broken, as mentioned by someone else above.

[Bug 570151] Re: mouse stuck jumping between screens

2012-06-17 Thread Alex Robinson
This just happened last night to my Lucid 64 ATI, dual monitor system
for the 1st time. And it happened again a few minutes ago.

Given that this system has been running Lucid with these two monitors
for nearly a couple years without this problem, I vote for a very, very
recent update.

Looking at Synaptic | File | History says the only suspicious looking
update (on the 13th) is a new linux image, 2.6.32-41. The rest of the
updates look like programs that would not be involved in low level
stuff.

Since this problem pretty much freezes the system, does anyone know of a
better way to recover than the big red button? (By way of ssh, that is.)

[Bug 317120] Re: snd-rtctimer module missing

2010-01-18 Thread Alex Robinson
I have this problem, too, after moving from Hardy to Karmic. No
RoseGarden.

Is there a work-around?

Tks.

[Bug 233913] Re: Gnome launcher drops http ? parameters (query strings) in URLs

2009-03-19 Thread Alex Robinson
It gets worse. If the URL is a 404, then the mime type is changed to
unknown and the shortcut does not fire up the browser.

To experiment on Hardy 64, FF3 as default browser, edit the .desktop
file and change the URL= link back and forth between existing pages and
404 links.

If you can see your server logs, you'll see the hit in apache's
error.log in the 404 case.

In any case, after you toggle the URL= between valid and 404 link,
right-click|Properties the desktop link and watch the mime type toggle
between text/html and unknown. In other words, right-click|Properties
causes a web hit!

May I humbly suggest that desktop web links are a thousand times more
important in a post-internet operating system than spinning, 3D windows
- on a desktop that stopped working after Hardy on nVideo cards. :)
