[Bug 1618288] [NEW] wget using "if-modified-since" is not idempotent and corrupts downloaded copy of website on second use

2016-08-29 Thread Carl Hauser
Public bug reported:

I use wget to copy a web site from one server to another, adjusting file
suffixes and paths.

Since updating to 16.04 LTS from 14.04 the command that I used
previously  has begun corrupting the destination site on second and
subsequent invocations.

The options relevant to the problem seem to be -N (use timestamping), -k
(convert links) and -E (adjust extensions). The problem arises with
linked files whose names do not end in .html. On the first invocation
everything is good: file foo.txt is downloaded and linked as foo.txt. On
the second invocation the wget log (option -v) suggests that it has
examined foo.txt on the server, but then it reports "File
'/foo.txt.html' not modified on server. Omitting
download." and then it changes the link in the referring file to
foo.txt.html.

I think this is a bug. Do others have an opinion?

Workaround: include the option "--no-if-modified-since" which seems to
restore the old, correct behavior.

Thanks.

P.S. The full command that misbehaves is: wget -nH -r -E -k -N -x -l inf
-P  "http://"

[Bug 477134] Re: [i965gm] X server hard crash when kubuntu System Settings Display app is started

2010-05-11 Thread Carl Hauser
After doing a dist-upgrade to kubuntu 10.04 on the affected laptop I
don't see this problem any more. I removed the nomodeset kernel
commandline switch and also removed nosplash. It comes up in a good
video mode and the display settings applet starts and runs fine.

Re: [Bug 477134] Re: [i965gm] X server hard crash when kubuntu System Settings Display app is started

2010-04-22 Thread Carl Hauser
Thanks for the prod. I have booted the kubuntu 10.4 beta 2 live image 
and I do NOT observe the crash (which did occur when booting live 
kubuntu 9.10 image). Since I use the installed system on this laptop for 
critical work I can't really mess with it by upgrading to the 10.4 beta 
2, but once the semester is over I will do the upgrade and report on the 
results. Based on the live image test I'm expecting the problem is gone.

[Bug 477134] Re: X server hard crash when kubuntu System Settings Display app is started

2009-12-09 Thread Carl Hauser
Following Martin's suggestion from Bug #490274 I added nomodeset to the
kernel command line and all was well with kernels 2.6.31-14 and
2.6.31-15. When I picked up the update to 2.6.31-16 today things broke
*worse*. It is still the case that booting without nomodeset and
invoking the KDE display setting app causes the same X crash and a
completely unusable machine.

However, with the 2.6.31-16 kernel *and* nomodeset, the display settings
app now (usually but not always) produces a corrupt screen that is black
for the top 1/3 and mouse clicks either are not reported as occurring in
the correct location or are completely ignored -- I can't tell which.

So this new kernel is represents regression rather than progress for
i965gm users. I'm tempted to open a new bug -- this one (4771334) is
really about behavior when KMS is active. With the -16 kernel there
seems to be a problem even when KMS is not being used. Thoughts?

[Bug 491483] Re: after recent update which included xorg, xserver etc causes low-graphics mode error at start

2009-12-04 Thread Carl Hauser
I found the following workarounds:
During grub boot (or in /boot/grub/menu.lst) edit the kernel options to include 
nosplash nomodeset
There is still an error during X startup but now the "Exit to console login" 
works (consoles are no longer all black).
Also after exiting to the console, sometime later an X server with kdm 
successfully starts on virtual console 8! (I have never before had an X server 
run on VC 8).

Once you can get to a working console login you can
sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm

For me this allowed X to start normally on VC7 without any errors. (I
guess you have to be sure that gdm is installed before this will work
:-).

[Bug 491483] Re: afte recent update which included xorg, xserver etc causes low-graphics mode error at start

2009-12-03 Thread Carl Hauser
I have very similar problems but the video driver in use is xserver-
xorg-video-intel . In addition to "Ubuntu running in low-graphics mode"
error though all video is unusable--drop to command prompt, etc, produce
a few colored pixels on the virtual terminals but that's all. Recovery
mode boots are also unusable on this machine with the 2.6.31-15 kernel
and 1:7.4+3ubuntu10 xserver-related packages installed.

The only reliably working configuration was to revert back to the
1:7.4+3ubuntu7 versions of all xserver packages and the 2.6.31-14
kernel.
