[Bug 1004570] Re: Ubuntu picks wrong monitor to use when booting
Please Note: It is HDMI not LVDS. This computer uses HDMI. It is the 1st Generation HD graphics for 1st generation I5 processor. For some reason the linux kernel (starting 3. ) sees HDMI port 1 is the output port and HDMI 2 is the lcd screen. in the 1st generation of intel I3 I5 processors HD graphics. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1004570 Title: Ubuntu picks wrong monitor to use when booting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1004570/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 1004570] Re: Ubuntu picks wrong monitor to use when booting
Ok I looked it up. if that is the case it not working with all the 3. kernels. 11.10, 12.04 and parted magic, might even be ubcd as well. haven't tried it., new version of gparted . For some reason the intel graphics from 2010 that came with 1st generation I3, I5, and I7 processors seem to be effected. I do not know if new generation's are effected or it's just my gateway nv7922u laptop. My laptop has a I5 M430, 4 gigs of memory, intel HD graphics version 12. I can not use parted magic 5.0 and up, blank screen, gparted 0.5.1-1 works, 0.6.4-1 blank screen. I haven't updated gparted iso very often. the 0.5.1-1 worked just fine, but I did down load the 0.6.4-1 to work in virtual box. I can't let you know, if 10.10 worked or 11.04 I never downloaded the ISO. I decided with 8.04 to just stay with the LTS version. To get the ISO to work I have to press the F4 key constantly to get the main menu, then F6 and NOAPIC, see my post on UBUNTU under DWADE I just had a problem were with windows 7 virtual in 12.04 that it locked 12.04 up. I had downloaded something, I am still searching., but it destroyed my linux swap file, and corrupted the MBR. Had to get my 500 gig orginal hard drive put in laptop I have a 640 gig installed (Oh! another problem Linux or it's Ubuntu will not recognize above a 400 gig secondary partition, had to change it 400, in stead of 500 same with a usb 750 I have) gparted said no partition, used partition commander and gave it a new MBR and found swap file gone. Repair the disk change UUID's of both 11.10 and 12.04 to new swap file.

RE: [Bug 300816] Re: Display out of Range in Ubuntu, Kubuntu or Live CD
I am truly sorry. but can not see any thing on the screen to even think about giving you those two files. Oh I could if I used desktop 8.04 install in live cd mode, but I have corrected the problelm by coping ati-driver-installer-8-11-x86.x86_run or ati-driver-installer-8-12-x86.x86_run with the 8.04 desktop cd in live mode to the home folder, and running it from the the recover mode and selectin root prompt. Installing the driver and then aticonfig --initial. This is also required at every update with a new kernel as well. To do what you have requested requires me to delete my repaired and working Ubuntu with kernel 2.26.27.11 The video card is a ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT 256 MB memory.

I have temporary fix. by either using a 8.04 version live cd (http://samaritan.ucmerced.edu/ubuntu-releases/cd/) or windows with ext2ifs.exe (http://www.fs-driver.org/) installed, place this driver ati-driver-installer-8-11-x86.x86_64.run (here: http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html) and place it into the /home/(user login)/ directory. at the grub prompt select recovery mode. Select root console, cd to "CD /home/(user Login) dir to list the file sh ./ati-driver-installer-8-11-x86.x86_64.run. answer prompts. use automatic. upon completion. type aticonfig --initial after confirming dialog. exit and boot. Will have ati console running an proper graphic. BUT! Upon updates from ubuntu. Driver will be unabled. at least this time it boots up and says graphic in low mode boot into or try and fix. boot into system run console type sudo aticonfig --initial.

I booted to windows 1st used my partition magic as I always have to do to correct the partitioner which never correctly write the proper CHR$ values to correspond to the LBA values in either EXT3 or RieserFS partitions. Running Partition magic corrects errors and window to operate correctly. Then booted to Ubuntu on to get the new Dreaded ""DisPlay out of Range"". My new computer is a DELL Optiplex 755 quad core 9600 with 3 gigs memory a 250 gig hard drive, ATI XT2400 PRO graphics card and a ViewSonic VG2021m monitor. Ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 both had problems with this graphic card until AMD/ATI put a linux driver at this site http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html and later the ATI control console was added to add programs from Ubuntu. I believe this bug is a hardware detection problem that has escaladed from version 7. To fix this problem is to require a slight backstep and to make a generic video driver for 800 X600 and to have the people choose better resolution after boot up. If going to high resolution works ok, but If NOt revert back to the 800X600 until either bug is fixed or the correct video drive for that computer is installed. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Display out of Range in Ubuntu or Kubuntu Live CD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300816 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 239554] Re: cdromupgrade
Sorry I didn't get back to right off the bat.
I have finially tried upgrading several times here again. It appears that
the upgrade problem from CD was cleared up in one of Ubuntu updates.
If you fresh load either Kubuntu or Ubuntu 7.10 the latest CD image, and try
to upgrade it will not work.
I use Acronis backup software. I have abackup of both Kubuntu and Ubuntu
last update in July or early August I have to look at the image date, but
neither one of them will upgrade from the CD until I ran all the updates
with either apt-get or update manager. Then it will upgrade.
But... that isn't really necessary since it's faster to load the new 8.04
Distro. Having found APTOCD on the install program list, makes it very easy
to install either Kubuntu or Ubuntu in less than 30 minutes with all the
programs I need and updated to the date of APTOCD disk. "THAT NEEDS TO BE
EXPLAINED TO PEOPLE"
At work our download speed is like connecting a eSATA external hard drive to
the computer.
At home I have for internet either snail snail dialup since I am at the end
of the phone line max connection of 26.4K or my Verizon Air Card EVDO Rev A,
which will down load at 800K to 1800K depending on the towers usage.
Kubuntu KPPP Dialer in version 8.04 works great. All that has to be done is
to search for the modem and ad the "init 2" line of code in the settings.
and create the resolve.conf file in etc.
Ubuntu does not come with a dialer. Next. I used the APTONCD and installed
APTONCD and GPPP. I tried to get it to work, it couldn't find the modem. I
had to blacklist airprime, as per the instruction for setting up a aircard
listed back in the forums for version 7.04 I believe. Then rebooted and
tried to dial again. GPPP works with wvdial. So you have to set up wvdial
with all the modem properties. Then it will work.
I am starting to prefer Ubuntu to Kubuntu or should I say Gnome console to
KDE console. KDE always comes up with when view another partition or
external drive can not save bookmarks. But you can from file manager always
open drive or folder as root. Ubuntu no longer has that option.
To open or copy I have to do it from terminal.
In KDE you can right click on the terminal I can and open it in a run box
then open it as root.
In Gnome you can do that. I always have to use sudo. is there any way
around that?
Thanks
David Walker

[Bug 239554] [NEW] cdromupgrade
Public bug reported:
the following is the source of cdromupgrade on the cd
--
---
#!/bin/sh
#
# "cdromupgrade" is a shell script wrapper around the dist-upgrader
# to make it possible to put it onto the top-level dir of a CD and
# run it from there
#
# Not that useful unfortunately when the CD is mounted "noexec".
#
# WARNING: make sure to call it with a absolute path!
# (e.g. /cdrom/cdromugprade)
# the codename is AUTO-GENERATED from the build-host relase codename
CODENAME=hardy
UPGRADER_DIR=dists/stable/main/dist-upgrader/binary-all/
cddirname="${0%\/*}"
fullpath="$cddirname/$UPGRADER_DIR"
# extrace the tar to a TMPDIR and run it from there
if [ ! -f "$fullpath/$CODENAME.tar.gz" ]; then
echo "Could not find the upgrade application archive, exiting"
exit 1
fi
TMPDIR=$(mktemp -d)
cd $TMPDIR
tar xzf "$fullpath/$CODENAME.tar.gz"
if [ ! -x $TMPDIR/$CODENAME ]; then
echo "Could not find the upgrade application in the archive, exiting"
exit 1
fi
$TMPDIR/$CODENAME --cdrom "$cddirname"
--
-
and as you can see this:
UPGRADER_DIR=dists/stable/main/dist-upgrader/binary-all/
this is no dist/stable there is dist/main though. the quote stable and
unstable are not on the disk infront of main
This causes the cdromupgrade not to run.
This is the lastest Hard ISO down loaded today. from Utah University
"ubuntu-8.04-alternate-amd64.iso"
Also the repair cd on the boot up screen does not work. It goes to partitioner
instead of list of fix commands. and if I go to the list of commands and
choose reinstall grub boot loader it goes to partitioner as well.

[Bug 155833] Re: cdromupgrade doesn't work with current hardy alternative CD
The Hardy 8.04 AMD 64 alternate CD cdromupgrade does not work either, and it is the latest release downloaded yesterday and again today to verify. Also the Repair CD function loops to install complete operating sytem. Upon selecting install grub boot loader it goes to partitioner. -- cdromupgrade doesn't work with current hardy alternative CD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155833 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
