[Bug 1268716] Re: Pinning repositories not being used properly in apt-get dist-upgrade -s
Here is the excerpt from the sources.list manpage: It is important to list sources in order of preference, with the most preferred source listed first. Typically this will result in sorting by speed from fastest to slowest (CD-ROM followed by hosts on a local network, followed by distant Internet hosts, for example). My reasoning for the bug is a little different than what is described in the manpage. However, I still feel that a system configured with repository Pinning should be consistent with the output of apt-cache policy and apt-get and take the Pinning into consideration. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1268716 Title: Pinning repositories not being used properly in apt-get dist-upgrade -s To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1268716/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1268716] [NEW] Pinning repositories not being used properly in apt-get dist-upgrade -s
Public bug reported: I'm having a unique issue involving repository pinning and apt-get reporting an incorrect repository. There is a package that has the same version in 2 different repositories (precise-updates and precise- security). Even though I have the Apt Pinning/Preferences configured properly and apt-cache policy reporting the correct information, apt-get dist-upgrade -s is not reporting the correct repository. This becomes an issue when trying to determine if a package/version is a security update or not. Code: root@server:~# cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/pin-precise-updates-release Package: * Pin: release a=precise-updates Pin-Priority: 600 Package: * Pin: release a=precise Pin-Priority: 300 root@server:~# cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/pin-precise-security-release Package: * Pin: release a=precise-security Pin-Priority: 900 root@server:~# sudo apt-get update (output clipped) root@server:~# sudo apt-cache policy linux-libc-dev linux-libc-dev: Installed: 3.2.0-53.81 Candidate: 3.2.0-58.88 Version table: 3.2.0-58.88 0 600 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates/main amd64 Packages 900 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-security/main amd64 Packages *** 3.2.0-53.81 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.2.0-23.36 0 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages root@server:~# sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -s Reading package lists...

I have found that if I put the precise-security source before precise-updates in /etc/apt/sources.list, apt-get dist-upgrade -s shows the precise-security repository. ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apt apt-cache -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1268716 Title: Pinning repositories not being used properly in apt-get dist-upgrade -s To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1268716/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 570151] Re: mouse stuck jumping between screens
I beg to differ on the fixed in Oneiric. I am seeing the issue in Precise Penguin on another machine of mine. Although the behavior is not exactly the same, it is very similar. The Precise Penguin machine is setup with a Windows XP Virtual Machine using Virtualbox and also has dual monitors. The issue occurs when multiple programs are open, namely Powerpoint and GoToMeeting. It almost always occurs when the user moves a window from one monitor to the next. The mouse blinks rapidly, but is not stuck. However, it is very difficult to see and control. When this issue occurs, Xorg is spiked. To resolve the issue, I use a remote desktop client from another computer to access the Virtual Machine (Windows XP). I close all programs she has open. I don't have any issues seeing or controlling the mouse from the remote session. Once I have closed all programs, she is able to see and control the mouse as normal. I have her shut down and restart both the VM and the physical box. Given the issues I am seeing, I would not consider this fixed in Oneric. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570151 Title: mouse stuck jumping between screens To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/570151/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 570151] Re: mouse stuck jumping between screens
I want to note that I have not experienced this issue in awhile. That could be because of one or all of these things: 1) The problem has been solved in the software (unlikely) 2) I have not been using a Virtual Machine (could be tied to #3) 3) I have noticed that my memory usage is relatively low lately (with both actually memory and cache added together). This tells me that it may have been a memory issue making something crash due to the lack of available memory. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570151 Title: mouse stuck jumping between screens To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/570151/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 570151] Re: mouse stuck jumping between screens
I'm glad someone finally found a *possible* solution to this, for a lack of a better word, annoying issue. This is especially annoying when having to ssh into the machine to 1) shutdown 2 VMs running, 2) attempt to kill any programs that may cause issues if crashed and 3) finally reboot the machine. Let's get this fixed!!! ...please.

[Bug 570151] Re: mouse stuck jumping between screens
FWIW, I haven't seen the issue in a couple days. This is after I installed a Windows XP VM, and now I run my used to be wine app as a Windows app in the VM instead. The app is Navicat. Not sure if the issue is because of Navicat or Wine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570151 Title: mouse stuck jumping between screens To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/570151/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@a7x: I guess I forgot that important piece of information. I'm reluctant to upgrade because I've spent so much time configuring 10.04 that I don't want to spend the time to configure the upgrade if it inevitably breaks. Here are my versions.

[Bug 570151] Re: mouse stuck jumping between screens
My Setup: Onboard: Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) 965G (VGA) PCI Dual head (one VGA and one DVI): NVIDIA GPU GeForce 6600 (NV43) at PCI:1:0:0 (GPU-0) Three monitors of 3 different sizes (what I could scrounge up at work) Left Monitor is using the onboard Intel Middle Monitor is using the VGA on the GeForce Right Monitor is using the DVI with a VGA converter on the GeForce Section ServerLayout Identifier Manual Config Screen 0Screen-Optiquest 1280 0 Screen 1Screen-ViewSonic 2960 180 Screen 2Screen-Acer 0 60 InputDevice Mouse0 CorePointer InputDevice Keyboard0 CoreKeyboard Option Xinerama true EndSection The reason for my crazy layout: I want only the middle monitor to have the panel/toolbar, which is why I'm using Xinerama and Screen 0 is my middle monitor. I'm not using Twinview, because my resolutions are different on each monitor. I have found that the mouse getting stuck usually happens when I am waiting for a Window to render. This is mostly when a program is running in Wine or if I am waiting for Firefox to load a video or a flash based picture gallery AND when I move my mouse across screens. If I wait until the window is fully rendered to move my mouse, the mouse does not get stuck. I hope this helps. I wish this issue would get the attention it needs. 54 comments, 24 (known) people affected, a Google search turns up many other forum posts with the same unresolved issue, multiple affected OSes, absolutely no workaround...this list goes on. This is a very frustrating issue. The reason for having multiple monitors is because it helps us be more productive. It defeats the purpose of being productive when my system locks up 2, 3, 4+ times a day, losing all my unsaved changes, killing any running processes, and having to wait for my system to reboot...just my 2 cents. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/570151 Title: mouse stuck jumping between screens To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/570151/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
