[Bug 946677] Re: UMS dri support missing for r200

2012-05-06 Thread Ashley Hooper
Thanks for mentioning that workaround, Carl. I've noticed it seems to
have allowed AIGLX to load properly but if I run glxgears the computer
(a Powerbook G4 15) hangs and I need to power off. Do you have working
GL support?

[Bug 969949] [NEW] Suyin Corp. Acer/HP Integrated Webcam [CN0314] stopped working

2012-03-31 Thread Ashley Hooper
Public bug reported:

Webcam has stopped working. System is running Ubuntu 11.10, and the
webcam is listed as follows by 'lsusb':

064e:a103 Suyin Corp. Acer/HP Integrated Webcam [CN0314]

I have tried 'cheese', luvcview, guvcview and mplayer, and all give
errors.

luvcview probably provides the best information of any of the above:

$ luvcview

luvcview 0.2.6

SDL information:
 Video driver: x11
 A window manager is available
Device information:
 Device path:  /dev/video0
Stream settings:
 Frame format: YUYV (MJPG is not supported by device)
Unable to set format: Input/output error
Init v4L2 failed !! exit fatal


At this stage it is very difficult to tell if the problem is with the uvc 
driver itself or with V4L2.

[Bug 803708] Re: rt61pci module fails after some period of time

2011-09-23 Thread Ashley Hooper
I have the same problem on Xubuntu 11.04. After some length of time, the
computer stops responding to pings. Unloading and reloading the rt61pci
module fixes it immediately. I have tried two different wireless cards,
and both were affected (Edimax and D-Link). I wonder if there is a way
to detect this condition somehow? In my case there was no sign of any
problem in the dmesg output.

[Bug 774475] Re: Lexmark multifunction printer does not work as scanner after upgrade to Natty

2011-09-12 Thread Ashley Hooper
I've managed to make this work by installing the versions of libsane and
libsane-extras from Debian Squeeze.

http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/sane-backends/libsane_1.0.21-9_i386.deb
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/sane-backends-extras/libsane-extras_1.0.21.2_i386.deb

Install the packages from Nautilus or the Ubuntu software centre. Or use
the CLI as follows:

sudo dpkg -i libsane-extras_1.0.21.2_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i libsane_1.0.21-9_i386.deb

Finally, you'll need to pin the version of libsane to the newly-
installed version:

gksudo gedit /etc/apt/preferences.d/libsane

Now paste the below contents into the file, save and exit.

Package: libsane
Pin: version 1.0.21-9
Pin-Priority: 900


Confirm it is working using the apt-cache policy command:

$ apt-cache policy libsane
libsane:
  Installed: 1.0.21-9
  Candidate: 1.0.21-9
  Package pin: 1.0.21-9
  Version table:
 1.0.22-2ubuntu1 900
500 http://nz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main i386 Packages
 *** 1.0.21-9 900
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The asterisks indicate the installed version from Debian Squeeze has
priority over newer versions, so update manager won't upgrade you back
to the broken version.

Hello Bryce. I don't hold out much hope of this bug being fixed anytime

Another sufferer of this bug here.

I get these garbled network names and the Ad Hoc networks I create
disappear and reappear in the Network Manager user interface (and

I am also having problems with the compose key. Unlike others here, I
can't type accented characters no matter whether I press the accent

With Xserver 1.5.2 that is in Intrepid, I had to manually create the

it doesn't work anymore.

Here is the relevant section from my xorg.conf file - has the syntax

Ian, just run the installer .exe under WINE - I've done this many
times before to extract Windows wireless drivers.

e.g. wine setup.exe

On one occasion the installer would not even install properly, and
would delete all temporary files when it failed and exited.  So I had
to let it unpack all files, and then leave it waiting at an OK prompt,
then browse the temporary folder where it had unpacked them to find
the .inf file.  I think that's pretty rare, though.

[Bug 195822] [NEW] Hardy hdparm does not honour power management options, leading to premature disk failure

2008-02-26 Thread Ashley Hooper
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: hdparm

I have parallel installs of Gutsy  Hardy on my laptop, and some time
ago read about the load cycle count problem and how to stop the rapid
increase in load cycles by disabling power management via hdparm. I
immediately configured hdparm.conf and installed smartmon-tools to watch
the count, and it seemed to slow the increase. At that point I was on
approximately 130,000 cycles on a 6 month old hard disk.

In recent months I've been using the Hardy Heron alpha, and on
installation I configured hdparm and smartmon-tools in the same fashion
as with Gutsy. I recently happened to check the count, and noticed to my
alarm that my disk is now over 170,000 load cycles (disk failure becomes
increasingly likely around 200,000 cycles).

I immediately checked my hdparm.conf etc, noted everything was correct
and then ran hdparm from the command line as follows:

 sudo hdparm -B 255 -S 240 /dev/hda

(-B) setting the APM setting  to 255, thereby disabling APM on the drive 
altogether
(-S) setting spindown_time to 240 (i.e. after only spin down after 20 mins of 
inactivity

I then ran:

 smartctl -a /dev/hda | grep Load_Cycle_Count

to watch the counter.  In spite of the hdparm command I'd given, load
cycles continued to accumulate at the rate of several per minute (I
could hear the drive quietly clunking each time).

I can not continue to use Hardy until this problem is rectified.

Note that the file 'alsa-hda-intel.tmp' was empty and could not be
uploaded.

It would appear from the dmesg output that when sound stops working,
nothing is seen to have changed from the kernel's point of view.
However, applications that utilise sound hang on accessing sound support
once the sound support fails.

I tried using the native kernel module (rt61pci) again last night

Yes Leann, this is still an issue with 7.10 (Gutsy) and the linux-
backports-modules package installed.  Sound stops working randomly,
especially when several sounds are triggered near simultaneously - e.g.
whilst receiving a Gaim message audible notification whilst playing a
music file.

In the past, the only way I've found to restart sound is by suspending
the laptop, however suspend and resume do not work with the current
Ubuntu kernel (2.6.22.14).

[Bug 139832] Re: [gutsy] rt61 wireless stops working after several minutes

2007-11-28 Thread Ashley Hooper
Just in case some here aren't aware, ndiswrapper is a 100% reliable
replacement for the native rt61 driver.  It simply 'wraps' the Windows
XP/2000 driver in a partial Windows emulation layer, and I've been using
it for several months and never lose connection or have to restart the
interface.

So if you just want to get up and working with your wireless adapter,
why not install ndiswrapper until the native rt61 kernel module becomes
stable enough for everyday use?

There are many tutorials around on setting up ndiswrapper.

[Bug 158404] LCD backlight does not turn off in X.org using xset with S3 Savage

2007-10-29 Thread Ashley Hooper
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-driver-savage

(I have been lurking on various other Launchpad bugs for some time but
now as it seems this bug is appearing in various X.org drivers, and
Launchpad bugs are being logged for each specific X.org driver, I'm
going to add my driver here)

The backlight has not switched off on my Toshiba Portege 3480CT for
several Ubuntu versions.  This is a concern for me as it is needlessly
wasting energy, and my battery power when I'm not on AC mains.

The backlight is controllable via vbetool, i.e. sudo vbetool dpms off,
standby etc all work properly.

Thanks for the fix Sascha, but I just tried it and it doesn't work for
me.

My problem is slightly different to yours in that my backlight *always*
stays on - it never turns off, even for a few seconds.  When it should
turn off it actually gets pretty bright white in a weird kind of grid
pattern which I guess is something to do with the TFT array in the LCD
itself.

[Bug 92761] Re: resolv.conf overwritten no matter what I do

2007-10-04 Thread Ashley Hooper
Exactly the same problem here.

Network Manager (or one of its helpers) seems to assume that the DHCP
server is *always* a DNS caching server (i.e. that it will accept DNS
queries on 53/UDP  53/TCP, look up the results and return the resolved
IP address to a client).  This is by no means the case and is broken
behaviour!

The router in the Net Cafe where I work (a fairly common NetGear DG824M)
does not have a built in DNS server, but issues its upstream DNS servers
to DHCP clients.  Network Manager (or one of its helpers) blindly
ignores these and instead puts 192.168.1.1 (my router's IP) into
/etc/resolv.conf.  Meanwhile, Windows  Mac wireless users connect
effortlessly, whilst I have to edit /etc/resolv.conf each time I am
allocated an IP address via DHCP.

This is a serious problem - especially for those who roam networks - and
it is still a problem on the most recent version of Gutsy as at today.

The reason that there aren't more people reporting it is because most
routers *do* act as DNS caching servers, but not all of them do and
furthermore in some configurations this is not the desired
configuration.

Also, prepending DNS servers sounds like a horrible kludge which would
get especially messy with roaming networks, requiring modifications each
time one connected to a new roamed network (not to mention it probably
incurs performance degradation in name resolution).

We need Network Manager (or helpers) to do what the DHCP server tells it
to which means to use the DNS server(s) it is given, and nothing else.

Please ignore my last comment in its entirety.  I have just checked
again and my laptop *is* getting the correct nameservers from the
router's DHCP configuration.  It is *not* over-riding this and trying to
use the router itself as a resolver.

Network Manager does take a little while to handshake, etc so perhaps
this is why I thought it wasn't working.  As far as I am concerned, this
is no longer a problem for me.

[Bug 139914] Sound stops with Intel 82440MX (i810)

2007-09-16 Thread Ashley Hooper
Public bug reported:

Using Dapper, Edgy, Feisty and Gutsy on 2 almost identical Toshiba
notebooks, I've found that almost without fail my computers' sound will
stop working completely at some point during my sessions.  This causes
MPD (music player daemon)  and any other multimedia applications to
hang, although in general the computer is still responsive for non-media
applications.  I then have to reboot (or suspend, when I have working
ACPI support, which I don't at present as I'm using Gutsy) the computer
to restore sound capability.

The most common precipitating factor seems to be receiving a message via
Gaim/Pidgin whilst the sound card is already busy playing an MP3 or
otherwise in use.  It does not happen *every* time I receive a message,
but 9 times out of 10 when the sound dies, it is coincident with
receiving an IM.

As mentioned above, I have 2 almost identical Toshiba laptops (Portege
3480CT  3490CT), and have now confirmed that the problem occurs with
both of them.  Although it could be a hardware fault specific to these
models, I think it unlikely and have been unable to find any reports of
this happening on Windows.  I believe it much more likely to be a bug in
the i810 kernel module and also not a general ALSA fault, as otherwise
many more people would be affected.

[Bug 139832] [gutsy] rt61 wireless stops working after several minutes

2007-09-15 Thread Ashley Hooper
Public bug reported:

With Gutsy I am finally able to use Network Manager to connect to WPA-
protected wireless networks with my notebook's RT61 PC card.  However,
the connection stops working within several minutes, at which point I am
not even able to ping the router.  After the most recent occasion, dmesg
asserted there was a duplicate address detected, however this is not
possible as only this one computer is switched on and the network is
WPA-protected.

Incidentally, I have the same problem with 2 different laptops, both
running Gutsy.  So far I've not found a way to bring the interface back
to life short of rebooting the computer.

[Bug 47462] Re: While booting, fails to load hardware drivers

2007-09-14 Thread Ashley Hooper
Another 'me too' on a machine that has been dist-upgraded from
Dapper-Edgy-Feisty - though in my case the system boots fine.  I don't
run usplash and booted without 'quiet' and there doesn't seem to be any
obvious error message displayed then, nor in the dmesg output.

[Bug 138423] Re: [gutsy] Gutsy performance lagging dramatically with ACPI enabled

2007-09-14 Thread Ashley Hooper
I've just started a Gutsy Netboot install on my other laptop, which is a
very similar Toshiba Portege 3490CT and  from the start the text mode
installer ran at an appalling speed; when the screen was cleared and a
new page displayed the update could be seen proceeding line by line.

Adding acpi=off to the netboot kernel parameters fixed the performance, but of 
course disabled ACPI support.
This is not ideal as Suspend and several other power-related features do not 
work with APM support out of box, but have worked with ACPI on Feisty and 
earlier releases.

[Bug 138423] [gutsy] Gutsy performance lagging dramatically

2007-09-09 Thread Ashley Hooper
Public bug reported:

I have been running Ubuntu on my Toshiba Portege 3480CT since Dapper
days, without problems.  I am currently dual-booting Feisty and Gutsy on
the laptop, and Feisty has no problems.  Although the machine is used as
a desktop, I use server mode install, and add my preferred packages for
X.org, Xdm, E17, Abiword, Epiphany, Gnumeric etc afterwards.

However, following a recent apt-get upgrade, I experienced extreme
slowness in booting, and performance in general.  Thinking this might be
related to some cruft on the / partition I reformatted it and performed
a fresh server install of Ubuntu Gutsy, but the problem persisted
exactly as before.  I do not use locate/updatedb and even an hour after
the machine has booted the problem persists.  'top' does not show any
process(es) using significant CPU time.

I thought it was connected with laptop-mode-tools, because multiple
laptop_mode processes were showing up in the 'top' process list, using
more CPU than I thought they should have been.  However I've now
upgraded to ubuntu_laptop_mode and performance is still very slow,
especially in X.org - moving a basic GTK application window (such as
GMPC) around the screen takes CPU to 100% and screen refresh lags
terribly.

For example, the Epiphany window takes some 40-60 seconds or more to
even appear after clicking the icon, so the problem extends beyond basic
display lag.  Firefox is even slower.  On the other hand, if I boot into
Feisty on the same machine, Epiphany starts in 5-10 seconds as normal.

Watching top when the machine is idle, the CPU is ~ 95% idle.  Today's
upgrade from 2.6.22-10 to -11 did not help with the problem.

The problem seems to be ACPI-related, as disabling ACPI using the
acpi=off kernel parameter restores performance.  This was unnecessary in
Feisty and earlier versions.

Both Edgy and Feisty work fine for me.  Is it best to close this bug and

[Bug 19410] Re: Laptop backlight does not turn off

2007-01-17 Thread Ashley Hooper
Unfortunately the latest Edgy updates as at today have not not fixed
this for me.  I'm running a Toshiba notebook with S3 Savage.

Running 'xset dpms force off' makes the screen go black but the
backlight stays on (it doesn't even turn off for a second), and just a
few seconds later the screen starts to increase in brightness and
appears to 'display' the pattern of transistors making up the TFT panel
itself.

I am happy for you to close this bug, and I'll go and lurk in the other
similar backlight bugs until this is fixed, e.g.:

bug 71368
bug 37364
bug 37540

bug 40667
bug 30802

[Bug 71368] Re: Laptop backlight stays always on

2007-01-07 Thread Ashley Hooper
Any news of a fix for this?

As with bug 37364, 'xset dpms force off' clears the display but does not
turn it off.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-
video-i810/+bug/37364/

I have to use 'sudo vbetool dpms off' to actually switch off the
backlight.

This is troublesome, because on both Edgy  Feisty at the time of
writing xscreensaver never disables the backlight in accordance with
your power management settings.

I am thus forced to either close the lid or suspend to RAM before going
away for any length of time if I don't want the backlight to carry on
burning.
