[Bug 346289] Re: Choppy Flash playback in full screen.
Thought I'd add in an observation: With Karmic, if I play a flash video in fullscreen, it starts off playing just fine (e.g., youtube). BUT...if I move the mouse, that's when it gets choppy. If I stop moving the mouse, it will usually resume playing properly. If I move the mouse and stop a few more times, it finally stops playing correctly even when the mouse is not moving. It almost acts like a memory issue between the mouse and the flash player, where the mouse fills up some buffer or something and takes up all the memory that flash is using. I don't know anything about the memory allocation, I'm just saying that that's what it makes me think of as I watch it. -- Choppy Flash playback in full screen. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346289 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

[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime
I just installed Hardy beta, and still had the same problem on my Toshiba. I had to go in and do the "-B 254 fix". And for those debating the "Windows does it too" question, I respectfully enter that mine does NOT do it under XP. Only under linux. Windows is obviously setting it correctly, linux still isn't (unless the debian fix does something I don't know about yet). I'm also curious as to the pm-utils switchover...I wonder if that whole thing might fix it. -- High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 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
[Bug 59695] Re: High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime
I can't say the same. I get high load counts in Ubuntu Gutsy on my Toshiba with a Seagate Momentus. On a fresh install, either plugged in or unplugged (I never saw any change in the count) I'm getting about one every 10 seconds to 1 minute. Under Windows XP, I'm seeing like 2 to 4 per hour; none if there's no activity. It's not all Ubuntu, of course. All the other distros are showing the same as I've hopped around a bit. I tried applying the various fixes that I've found, but I'm not seeing any difference in the increased load counts. Which is frustrating, because windows is obviously doing SOMETHING to control it. Question is, what, and how, to impliment this. I don't know if pm-utils will be a different change or not. I haven't tried it, and am not sure how. If somebody wants me to try it, I will, just tell me what to do. -- High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59695 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

[Bug 127101] Re: laptop hangs when switching video mode
After trying out the ubuntu9 patch, I think it mostly solved the problem for me. But I do notice one thing (and I'm not sure it's a critical thing, just a little disconcerting). When opening a new window in Firefox, the image of whatever page you were on becomes "scrambled" for about a half second; once the new window opens, though, everything is fine. It's a little annoying to click a link, and the image get messed up for that split second until the new page opens and settles down. Oh, the scrambling occurs in the new window frame, not in the old one. Other than that, looks like the patch may have fixed the original problem quite nicely. -- laptop hangs when switching video mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/127101 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug has been solved with the 2.6.22 kernel in all the distros I've tried that had the problem before. So if you are using any kernel that is older than that (gutsy is the first to carry it in the ubuntu line), then you are still going to experience the problem. AFAIK, no backporting was done on this fix.

Public bug reported: Laptop is a Toshiba M55; I've now twice had this same exact thing occur. I install successfully, it boots properly several times, and then after 4 or 5 successful boots, it all of a sudden comes up with a corrupted /home partition. fsck won't touch it, due to inability to access the partition, even when I use a rescue cd. It claims that the partition size is incorrectly reported from the mbr. I'm unable to provide more info from the system, as I wasn't able to ever get the thing all the way back up. On attempting to reinstall ubuntu, the entire mbr appears to have been corrupted, and I have to basically start from a fixmbr on the XP side (dual boot), THEN I can continue re-partitioning my disk.

That's ok...I'm not using dapper anymore anyway, so I can't comment.
