[Bug 365968] [NEW] touchpad randomly failing

2009-04-24 Thread Dean Moreton
Public bug reported:

Fully updated Jaunty on a Toshiba Tecra M2 laptop, experiencing weird
issue with touchpad/keyboard.  Basically at random the touchpad/keyboard
will decide to stop functioning correctly.  I didn't experience this
with Intrepid on this same hardware.  It's hard to reproduce, and
sometimes won't happen for days but did happen 3 times this morning.
Touchpad will still work in that I can move the pointer, but no mouse
clicks will be registered and mouseover items is ignored.

The keyboard also stops functioning mostly, It seems I can tab round
elements of an active window, but not able to use other combinations
such as alt-tab.  Found the below in the messages.log at the time this
occurs:

Only way to fix is power off using the power button, but strangely one
time after a rage filled 5 secs of mashing the keyboard it came back.
Can supply any other logs if required.

Confirmed in Jaunty with latest updates, the default size of 13 looks
huge on my laptop, so apps like VLC and Skype are pretty ugly, but the
Qt 4 Settings tool won't apply my font size change or save it.

[Bug 295870] Re: ubiquity partitioner disk usage graph is incorrect

2008-11-20 Thread Dean Moreton
Confirmed.  I just installed on an 80GB HDD, before running the
installer I had 2 Primary partitions; 15 GB and 45 GB, both NTFS,
leaving an approx 20GB contiguous free space for Ubuntu.

I chose the use largest contiguous free space option, but the graphical
representation for after showed 100% useage for Ubuntu.  As I've always
used this type of setup when installing I just figured this was a
graphical bug in the updated installer and went through with it.
Getting to the end of the installer I could see it was going to create
the two new partitions in the free space without blatting anything, so
it seems this option works fine in theory, but just a bug with how it
displays it at the choosing partition step.

[Bug 212546] Re: pidgin no longer flashes/notifies on taskbar upon receipt of message

2008-04-20 Thread Dean Moreton
Just to chime in, I find this an annoying regression also.

I noticed using Pidgin in Hardy that I wasn't getting any notifications
of new message alerts in my bottom panel and was in fact being quite the
snob without realizing it.

I've found I need to go into plugins and enable the message notification
plugin to get this behaviour back. The behaviour, to clarify, is to have
the window for my chat blink when it gets a new message if its not the
active window/minimised. I know I had to configure this manually back in
the day with older releases and GAIM but I'm sure this was enabled by
default in Gutsy at least.

It's a bit odd having a chat client that doesn't let you know you have a
new message by default. Granted I think the systray icon blinks but
that's doesn't always catch your eye immediately.

[Bug 211545] [NEW] Mount points changing with reboots after last updates

2008-04-03 Thread Dean Moreton
Public bug reported:

Been running Hardy for weeks without this prob but pulled down lots of
updates tonight which I'm pretty sure had a kernel update. Running
2.6.24-14-generic #1 SMP Thu Apr 3 04:49:29 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

Seems my partition mount points are duplicating each reboot as I noticed
my data partition is mounted to /media/Data__

Reboot before that was /media/Data_ and for the last few weeks was just
consistently /media/Data

Seems a user was experiencing the same behaviour in this old bug report
in Feisty in bug 101845 but thought I'd open another one since that is
over a year old.  Please mark as dupe if this was the wrong thing to do.

Heres the relevant output of a mount and ls -l before a reboot

/dev/sda5 on /media/Data__ type fuseblk
(rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other,blksize=4096)

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 999 6 2008-03-24 15:53 cdrom -> cdrom0

and after a reboot

[Bug 208579] [NEW] VLC not using PulseAudio by default

2008-03-28 Thread Dean Moreton
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: vlc

Was troubleshooting some performance issues with Hardy on my laptop and
irrelevant story short
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4606555) I found that at least
with my setup VLC doesn't appear to be using PulseAudio by default.

When playing back video using VLC, my pulseaudio process remains
sleeping, however other apps such as Totem and Rhythmbox make the
pulseaudio process use a few % of CPU.

I manually enabled it by installing vlc-plugin-pulse and launched using
vlc --aout pulse
played back a video and then saw the expected pulseaudio process working.

After being pointed towards bug 196417 in the forums and the relating
FFE at 204050 I've since discovered that the newly uploaded version of
VLC should be using PulseAudio by default.  The version I installed
tonight is 0.8.6.release.e+x264svn20071224+faad2.6.1-0ubuntu2 and it
doesn't appear to be.

If my method for determining if VLC is actually using PulseAudio is
naff, then abuse me and disregard this.

[Bug 195434] Re: Hardy alpha5: Shutting down GDM takes a long time.

2008-03-28 Thread Dean Moreton
Can confirm this issue with up to date Hardy beta.  When shutting down
my laptop with fresh Hardy install X will be dumped straight away and I
am dropped to a terminal for at least 30 seconds until I get a quick
barrage of Networkmanager related messages then finally the shutdown
splash screen.

Looking in /var/log/syslog I noticed gdm was getting a SIGABRT and you
can also see the 30 or so second delay in shutdown:

Mar 28 22:27:28 Putmey init: tty4 main process (4573) killed by TERM signal

Mar 28 22:29:02 Putmey syslogd 1.5.0#1ubuntu1: restart.

Also like the bug reporter if I issue a sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop it takes a 
good 30 seconds.
Not sure if useful but I'll attach a log from /var/log/gdm
If you don't think gdm is the cause of this long shutdown issue please let me 
know and I'll refile elsewhere.

following:

Can not compile and/or link drivers. Read /usr/lib/parallels/doc/INSTALL

Compilation log is available at /usr/lib/parallels/comp.log.6001.error

Attached is said log file.  Also to note is that the INSTALL doc

filed for that. Seems a few others are experiencing this also:

Sorry to add to the growing list of redundant(ish) comments to this
bug, but I tried out Etch last night to see how they handled this bug
and found Flash installs fine.

Doing some digging I found the bug in their tracking system at
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=432755 and it seems
they resolved this on the 27th of December and now have 9.0.115.0.1 in
stable.  Is there a reason why their fix can't be reviewed?

[Bug 130072] Re: checkgmail Open message feature doesn't works.

2007-12-07 Thread Dean Moreton
This does seem to be an Ubuntu specific issue as I and a few other
Ubuntu user's in the project's sourceforge site have reported, but with
no real progress as such:
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1702987&forum_id=463626

Looking at ubuntuforums.org it seems this is quite a popular app with no
real mention of this problem so it would seem maybe its not that wide
spread?  Personally I just did a clean install of Gutsy last night and
checkgmail was one of the first things I installed and I still have this
problem. This is on a completely different machine from my Feisty
machine that also had this problem.

Just to clarify the above users message, my experience is that clicking
on the "open" link for any new email notification simply takes you into
your inbox with the specific email marked as read.
