2008-03-19 Thread Christopher Sachs
network-manager-0.6.6-0ubuntu2 solves the problem on my first-gen
MacBook. nm-applet is fully functional again. Great work and thanks for
the quick turnaround. Three cheers for Alexander!

Cannot connect to wireless networks with network-manager-0.6.6-0ubuntu1

[Bug 186681] [NEW] Enable support for garbage collection in objective-c (libobjc_gc)

2008-01-28 Thread Christopher Sachs
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gcc

GCC has two variants of its Objective-C runtime library, one garbage
collected (libobjc_gc) one not (libobjc). Only the non-garbage collected
variant is packaged in Ubuntu.

The combination of directly linking to c code, flexible smalltalk based
object messaging system, and modern garbage collection which can exceed
the performance of manual memory management make Objective-C an
extremely appealing and exciting language to work in. But the last piece
--garbage collection--is not available in Ubuntu.

Please create a new gcc package for libobjc_gc. Thanks.

[Bug 185617] [NEW] gobjc packages missing binaries

2008-01-24 Thread Christopher Sachs
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gobjc

The gobjc packages in Ubuntu Hardy (both gobjc-4.2 and gobjc-4.1) are
missing binary executable files--nothing is installed in /usr/bin.

Debian's gcc build system is voodoo to me so I was unable to find a
source of the problem.

For reference, here is the output of `dpkg -L gobjc-4.2` on my up-to-

[Bug 113344] Re: [Feisty[mouseemu]Freeze of usb mouse while using keyboard

2007-06-16 Thread Christopher Sachs
mouseemu simulates middle and right mouse button presses for users with only 
one mouse button (Apple laptop users without an
external mouse). It uses the uinput kernel module which allows a program to 
inject input events, which is how it fakes the button
presses. The manpage for mouseemu says that by default it uses /dev/uinput, 
/dev/input/uinput or /dev/misc/uinput to send its
events. mouseemu also supports a feature that is supposed to disable the 
trackpad when the keyboard is in use. The problem
appears to be that /dev/input/uinput on Ubuntu corresponds to an external mouse 
and not to the internal trackpad. And by default
the keyboard-disabling feature is enabled, so the external mouse gets locked up 
when the keyboard is in use.

One temporary fix for the problem besides removing mouseemu is to disable the 
typing block by replacing the relevant line in
/etc/default/mouseemu with:

TYPING_BLOCK="-typing-block 0"

and restarting mouseemu with

sudo /etc/init.d/mouseemu restart

This fixes the problem of the mouse freezing, but mouseemu is still a lame duck 
because its other useful features still only apply to an external
mouse and not to the trackpad.

The way to really fix the problem is to make /dev/input/uinput
correspond to the trackpad. So who knows how to do this?

[Bug 105389] Re: External usb Mouse Stops responding when holding down a key on the keyboard.

2007-06-16 Thread Christopher Sachs
I had the same problem on my MacBook. mouseemu is definitely the culprit. 
Instead of removing it though,
edit /etc/default/mouseemu and uncomment and change the last line to:

TYPING_BLOCK="-typing-block 0"

It appears mouseemu has a feature to disable the trackpad while typing. It 
seems to be mistaking an external mouse
for the trackpad because the mouse gets disabled but NOT the trackpad. Perhaps 
this is a usb device naming issue.

[Bug 82238] Madwifi driver prevents MacBook from booting

2007-01-30 Thread Christopher Sachs
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-5-generic

My MacBook would not boot after upgrading to Feisty (kernel hung halfway
through startup) and it looked like it was panicing while loading the
madwifi driver (though I could not tell for sure because the text
scrolled past too quickly).

So I chrooted into my system from an Edgy livecd and removed linux-
restricted-modules-2.6.20-5-generic and my computer rebooted into the
new kernel normally (without wifi, of course). I then reinstalled linux-
restricted-modules and blacklisted ath_pci and was able to boot into my
system WITH restricted modules installed. I have included the outout of
`modprobe ath_pci` below.

I realize that running Ubuntu is not supported on Intel Macs, but this
is a critical bug because you cannot even boot into a default install,
or even a feisty livecd for that matter, because of this bug. Both
Dapper and Edgy booted fine on my MacBook so this would be a major
regression. On a related note, is there a way to disable a module from
the kernel command line?

This bug may be related to Bug #77233 regarding unbootable MacBooks in
Feisty.

If there is anything I can do to help diagnose this problem further,
please let me know. Thanks.

Here is the output of modprobing ath_pci from linux-2.6.20-5-generic on
my machine:
