[Bug 557177] Re: init: support mandatory arguments, or prevent starting of tasks without any arguments

2010-04-07 Thread Edwin Wong
Could people please read all the comments before judging so quickly?  I
was thinking the same thing at first, but if you read message #10 he
rethinks his position and marks it to be fixed.  I would be more likely
myself to mark it as critical rather than wishlist, but the maintainer
has acknowledged the problem and it will get fixed, no need to jump all
over him now.

[Bug 437360] Re: Ubuntu hangs during startup with plugged in USB mouse/keyboard

2009-09-28 Thread Edwin Wong
Thanks for confirming that it's a BIOS bug.  Did some more research
based on this information, found out that Fedora was not booting up on
this motherboard a couple years back.  Just in case anybody comes across
this problem, the fix was to downgrade the BIOS to the 0504 one on the
Asus website (provided your CPU is supported by the older BIOS).
Everything works fine now, this bug can be marked as "won't fix",
thanks.

[Bug 437360] [NEW] Ubuntu hangs during startup with plugged in USB mouse/keyboard

2009-09-26 Thread Edwin Wong
Public bug reported:

This problem exits in both Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) and Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha 6
(Karmic).

Ubuntu hangs during startup with if I have either a USB mouse or
keyboard plugged in.  My current workaround is to have both plugged into
their respective PS/2 ports.  This only happens with a USB mouse or
keyboard plugged in, boot is fine if I have a USB memory key plugged in,
for example.

The problem manifests itself in different ways depending on boot options
and version of Ubuntu.  To sum up:

32-bit text install CD - hangs at Choose Language page
32-bit text install CD with acpi=off - the error message "powernow-k8: Your 
BIOS does not provide ACPI _PSS objects in a way that Linux understands. Please 
report this to the Linux ACPI maintainers and complain to your BIOS vendor" 
flashes, then install hangs at Choose Language page
32-bit regular install CD - hangs with the message "Starting bluetooth"
32-bit regular install CD with acpi=off - eventually get the first install 
desktop page but system hangs, mouse and keyboard unresponsive

My hardware:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ processor
Asus M2NPV-VM motherboard (GeForce 6150 NForce 430 chipset) - flashed with the 
latest BIOS version 1401 dated 2008/08/25
4 GB RAM
eVGA GeForce 8800 GT PCI-e video card

I'm guessing the "ACPI _PSS objects" error message appears to be most
informative one.  If the problem is the BIOS provided with my
motherboard, how should I report this problem to Asus so that it gets
fixed?  Any patches or updates I could do to fix this problem on my
system?  Thanks!

[Bug 420842] Re: Huge memory leak in Rhythmbox

2009-09-20 Thread Edwin Wong
Just wanted to confirm that I appear to be seeing the same bug in Ubuntu
9.04, albeit in the 32-bit kernel (2.6.28-15-generic).  There seems to
be a specific trigger before memory starts leaking on my system.  RAM
usage is pretty reasonable for a while, from about 25-30MB while doing
normal tasks in Rhythmbox, then something happens and it starts using 10
extra MB of RAM every two seconds or so.  This is in a relatively small
music collection, 270 songs totalling 1.1 GB.
