[Bug 1462647] Re: Native Client (NaCl) not working in Chromium Dev

2017-11-03 Thread Gerv
NaCL will still be usable by Chrome Apps and extensions, for example
Chrome Remote Desktop, which currently doesn't work with the Ubuntu
version of Chromium. So there is still value in getting this working.

[Bug 1694446] Re: Installer crashes when trying to upgrade 32-bit system to 64-bit

2017-05-30 Thread Gerv
"A warning message prompted you that this could be a problem and
recommended performing a bios mode install instead, but you chose not
to."

That's not entirely right. The warning message said that there would be
a possible problem booting _other_ operating systems installed on the
disk afterwards. As I had no other operating systems other than the one
I was upgrading, I chose to continue. If in fact there are other reasons
for not continuing in this situation, the message needs updating to be
more clear and explain what to do differently . So I am reopening this
bug.

[Bug 1338942] Re: New 64-bit 14.04 install doesn't boot

2014-11-18 Thread Gerv
penlavch: so, let me get this straight. This bug where my computer won't
boot from a particular SSD: you want me to boot the computer from a CD
and see if I can reproduce the bug? And if I do reproduce the bug where
my computer won't boot, you want me to run some software on this non-
booted computer in order to submit a problem report?

Have I got that right?

[Bug 1246272] Re: Keyboard layout changing randomly

2014-09-25 Thread Gerv
I had the problem that the hotkey (Super+Space) was not actually
changing the input method, even though the icon changed. (Selecting it
from the menu worked OK). I'm not entirely sure how I fixed it, but I
ran ibus-setup and set the settings to:

* Customise active input methods: Off
* No input methods in list
* Use system keyboard layout: Off
* Share the same input method among all applications: On

and then rebooted. And it started working.

In Language Support in the prefs, my input method system is set to Ibus.
In the Text Entry prefs, I have two input sources listed - English and
Bengali (Avro Phonetic), the key set to Super+Space, and Use the Same
Source for All Windows selected. I'm also using a custom font.

It's still true that when I select Bengali (Avro Phonetic) and click the
little keyboard icon, it shows me the wrong keyboard layout (an English
one of some sort). Not sure what's up with that. But at least input
method switching works again!

Hope this helps someone,

Gerv

[Bug 1338942] [NEW] New install with full disk encryption doesn't boot

2014-07-08 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

I have a Thinkpad X230 happily running 14.04 32-bit with full disk
encryption. It was an upgrade from 13.10, which also (obviously) had
full disk encryption. However, I have 12GB of RAM so I wanted to switch
to 64-bit. I decided the safest way was to buy a new drive and install
the 64-bit version to that, then migrate my data. So I bought a Crucial
SSD, made a boot USB stick of 14.04 64-bit, fitted the SSD and started
the install, again requesting full disk encryption.

The install proceeds fine and precisely as expected, right up to Reboot
to use your new system. But then the system does not start.

The first time I try and restart, immediately after install, I get the
BIOS splash screen and the black with a purple border screen, but no
please enter your drive password. Instead, the fan starts whirring and
the machine gets hot - it seems to be pegging the CPU. In case it was
doing something like encrypting all the data, I left it overnight (the
second time I tried the install), but when I came back 10 hours later, I
was still at the black with a purple border screen, although the CPU
seemed not to be working hard any more.

If I try rebooting again, I can get a GRUB screen, but if I pick
Ubuntu, I get the purple border, and then Kernel panic - not syncing
- No init found. And that's the message I get on each subsequent boot
attempt.

I can boot the machine using my old 32-bit 14.04 disk (attached in a
USB3 enclosure) and examine the internal drive. However, I don't know
what to look for. Using the Disks tool, I can mount the boot partition
- it seems to have all the right bits, but I'm no expert. I an also
unlock the encrypted partition, although I can't work out how to mount
it.

So I'm happy to provide more info if people just tell me what to look
for.

I'll also try and install _without_ FDE and see if that's the factor
which makes the difference.

[Bug 1338942] Re: New install with full disk encryption doesn't boot

2014-07-08 Thread Gerv
Turns out the FDE is a red herring. I just reinstalled without FDE and
the symptoms are exactly the same.

The new install has a simple 500GB ext4 partition, which I can mount
using the Disks tool when booted using my old disk. It seems like all
the data is there. (It also has a 13GB extended partition with a swap
partition in it.) But it refuses to boot from that drive.

I tried booting the drive as a raw disk using VirtualBox, but I get the
same error. So I don't think it's my hardware (excepting the new SSD, of
course - it could be the SSD).

Yes, thank you, bot. If I knew which source package the problem was in,
I'd be a lot closer to solving it :-) It could be the installer is
writing the wrong thing; it could be grub is misinterpreting what the
installer writes; I don't know. Someone help me work it out :-)

[Bug 1338942] Re: New install doesn't boot

2014-07-08 Thread Gerv
So I tried installing 32-bit 14.04 from scratch, and it worked. For
interest, I tried then installing 64-bit using the upgrade option in
the installer, over the top of the 32-bit version, and it didn't work.

So there is some problem with installing 64-bit 14.04 that makes it not
boot much beyond Grub - can't find init. FDE doesn't make a
difference.

I think I've about reached the end of my debugging skills, unless
there's some kernel option I can pass to get more detailed diagnostics
from the boot process...?

[Bug 1179596] Re: browser needs its own UA string

2013-07-09 Thread Gerv
Hi everyone,

We at Mozilla have put a great deal of thought into our UAs for our
mobile products, and have a reasonably good understanding of the trade-
offs involved. Obviously your situation is different if you are building
on WebKit, but we are very happy to share our experience and suggestions
with whoever makes this decision. Drop me an email - g...@mozilla.org -
if you are interested in that.

And it is a _big_ decision - because once you choose something, you are
stuck with it. If you keep tweaking it, you'll break something every
time you fix something, and it will get very frustrating. Getting this
wrong could seriously affect the market acceptance of your product.

We'd love to have people from Ubuntu join us in our evangelism efforts
to make the web more multi-browser friendly.

I would strongly recommend that you implement an override mechanism as a
safety valve for sites which you can't persuade to fix themselves.
It's not a magic bullet for compatibility problems, but it can help.

[Bug 1035667] [NEW] pdf2ps seems to get bounding box wrong

2012-08-11 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

(Using Ubuntu Precise 12.04 LTS on a Thinkpad X220)

The attached PDF, when viewed in evince, says in the Properties:

Paper Size: 496x437mm

That is correct.

When I convert it to PS using:

pdf2ps frame_base.pdf

and then view the PS file in a text editor, it says at the start:

%%BoundingBox: 0 0 595 842

I believe this is measured in points, where 1cm is 28 points, so this
translates to 212mm x 301mm. Which is not the same.

This is a problem because the poster program uses this info to try and
work out how best to split it up into sheets for a poster, and one gets
very weird results. I tried reporting this bug at bugs.ghostscript.com
and their tracker said that if I got the ghostscript from Ubuntu, I
should report it to you first.

[Bug 986205] Re: libreoffice-writer needs libreoffice-base for form controls (libdbalo.so missing from libreoffice-base-core)

2012-04-30 Thread Gerv
This problem also occurs with a very simple spreadsheet (available on
request) which just has numbers, dates, currencies and a few simple
formulae. So it's not just text documents with form controls.

Installing libreoffice-base (which pulls in a load of Java) fixes it.

I don't think this is a duplicate. This bug is particularly about the
fact that the way to get a fast mouse is to set sensitivity to low,
which is not particularly intuitive. I would expect high sensitivity to
correspond to faster, 'jumpier' motions.

[Bug 463284] Re: Menu, description, and About box disagree about what the program is called

2009-10-29 Thread Gerv
This bug is about the text in Ubuntu Software Centre, not the text in
the About: box of File-Roller itself. Although it should probably be
made consistent with whatever.

Ideally, Ubuntu would not have an Archive Manager at all - the default
file manager would seamlessly deal with archives. But if it has to have
one, I would suggest Compressed File Manager as the best name for the
application, for those who might not know what it does.

This also affects me, on exactly the same hardware (Thinkpad X40). As it
is 100% reproducible, and the only way to cure it is a reboot, it
effectively makes suspend useless on this machine.

Things that don't fix it:
- Double console switch
- Executing xrandr

[Bug 355086] Re: Wesnoth save game file format in jaunty is incompatible (1.4 - 1.6) and saves just vanish

2009-05-04 Thread Gerv
I agree with Rhonda - changing the directory name seems very
shortsighted. a) What happens when we get to Wesnoth 1.8? b) Is it
really impossible to create saved game files so that they have
versioning info, and the game can say sorry, we can't open that file
now? It seems to be it does this anyway - so why on earth change the
directory so that code becomes useless?

Rhonda: I realise you have already spent time on this, but might it be
worth checking with upstream to see if it would be OK to switch the data
directory back? Then people would get a sensible error message instead
of just thinking all their games had vanished.

Also, while I'm here, if there's any way of changing the packaging so a
small update to the main game doesn't require re-downloading all the
music, that would be very cool too :-)

[Bug 361920] [NEW] suspend/resume failure on Thinkpad X40

2009-04-15 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

My IBM Thinkpad X40 occasionally fails to suspend properly - the
suspend light flashes but the suspend process never completes.

On occasion, it also fails to resume properly. I'm not entirely sure
which failure this apport-generated crash refers to, but I think it's
the suspend.

[Bug 355086] Re: Wesnoth save game file format in jaunty is incompatible (1.4 - 1.6) and saves just vanish

2009-04-14 Thread Gerv
I realise conversion is hard/impossible, and I agree you can't be
expected to support both versions. But I would happily have delayed my
upgrade to Jaunty by a week if I had known that this was coming. So I
guess what I'm really looking for is a warning at the start of the
upgrade process. Is there any facility for that sort of thing?

Also, I'm looking for Wesnoth, when I start it with old saved games, to
say You have old saved games. Sorry you can't play them. You need to
downgrade to 1.4 or another helpful message, rather than just pretend
that they aren't there. I would hope that's not too big a patch. I agree
that's a bug for upstream rather than the Debian or Ubuntu maintainer,
though.

So the issue, then, is to figure out why the upgrade process threw up a
dialog saying there was an error, and yet the process continues when the
dialog is dismissed and, when I rerun the post-inst script as you
requested, there is no error now. :-)

If we can eliminate the error dialog during upgrade, we will have fixed
this bug.

[Bug 355086] [NEW] Wesnoth save game file format in jaunty is incompatible (1.4 - 1.6) and saves just vanish

2009-04-04 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: wesnoth

I have completed 23 out of 25 scenarios in the Wesnoth campaign Heir to
the Throne. I then upgraded to the Jaunty beta, which replaces Wesnoth
1.4 with 1.6. Now, none of my saved games are available in the GUI, and
so I can't load them!

This campaign took rather a long time to play. If this were my only
computer, I would cry. Fortunately, I have another one and can use rsync
to move the saves across and finish the campaign. But other people will
not be so lucky.

There needs to be some sort of warning, or a conversion script, or the
ability to keep 1.4 installed as well... or something! Just losing all
the saved games (although the data remains in the Wesnoth directory, at
least at first) and not telling the user anything is unacceptable IMO.

[Bug 291655] [NEW] sources.list missing hardy-updates for universe

2008-10-31 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: synaptic

Bug 255738 has the details. Basically, the sources.list of several
people running Hardy seems to be missing hardy-updates for Universe,
even though Synaptic implies that they are enabled. This eventually
causes problems with package version mismatches, the symptom of which is
an inability to install OpenJDK.

Now it's definitely a synaptic bug that it doesn't fix this problem when
you run it, but it could be that the original cause is elsewhere (the
upgrade process from gutsy?). So I'm starting by filing the bug against
synaptic but you may have to move it.

See the below comment mostly copied from bug 255738:

I'm missing hardy-updates in universe in my sources.list. I've never
manually removed this as far as I remember. Could it be that the upgrade
process doesn't set up sources.list correctly?

The worrying thing is, if I fire up Synaptic and look at the
Repository configuration, I have the following boxes marked as
checked:

Ubuntu Software tab:
  main, universe, multiverse, source code

Updates tab:
  hardy-security hardy-updates

And yet my sources.list doesn't have hardy-updates enabled for universe.
So there's something wrong with Synaptic's checking and mapping to those
checkboxes too - it should flag up this problem.

My broken sources.list is attached to the other bug.

2008-10-12 Thread Gerv
How could the problem be with the mirror?

As far as I understand it, this is what happens:

- Someone has a fully-updated Ubuntu but no Java installed
- This means they have tzdata-2008g (I think it's g)
- They try and install Java using apt-get
- openjdk-jre-6-headless has an = dependency on tzdata-2008b
- openjdk-jre-6-headless refuses to install due to a version mismatch
- and apt-get won't or can't downgrade the tzdata package to fix it

Result: you have to downgrade manually.

I guess the only reason it could be a mirror issue is if the problem had
actually been fixed but the mirror didn't have an updated version of
openjdk-jre-6-headless. I think that's highly unlikely because the
several people reporting the problem will be using different mirrors.
And I get updates to my machine all the time, so it's not like the
mirror is dead.

I'm using gb.archive.ubuntu.com, not some unofficial mirror - it really
should be working.

Evidence that it's not a mirror problem: the following directories are
(as far as I can see) identical between gb.archive and us.archive:

http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tzdata/
http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/t/tzdata/

http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openjdk-6/
http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openjdk-6/

If I were to change mirror, how would I do it? And what actions should I
take to test if the problem has gone away? (Currently, apt-get upgrade
says that tzdata has been kept back, if that's useful info.)

I removed gb., did apt-get update, and then apt-get upgrade. It still
told me tzdata has been kept back.

So I ran a dist-upgrade and got the following:

After this operation, 81.9MB disk space will be freed.

It really looks like the problem is not solved - moving to the latest

It's a problem with the packages which make up Hardy, which is the

OpenJDK is simply not installable, without doing one of these workaround

[Bug 245696] [NEW] gnomesword2 crashes when I click Hebrew text

2008-07-04 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnomesword

gnomesword2 crashes immediately when I single-click (not drag) on the
main Bible text display panel when it is displaying the WLC. It only
crashes when I click the Hebrew; clicking the English chapter headings
and verse numbers is fine. Clicking Hebrew in the Parallel view is also
fine (although it uses a different font, and I haven't managed to work
out how to get the two to match, so that may be relevant.) I believe the
font in the main view is Ezra SIL. This is Gnomesword 2.2.3, as shipped
with Hardy.

The console displays the following:

(gnomesword2:13761): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_convert: assertion `str != NULL' failed
Segmentation fault

I tried installing the debug package and debugging it using GDB.
Triggering the crash locked up my desktop; I had to switch to another
virtual console and kill gdb. The output was as follows:

[Bug 230530] Re: Installing Macromedia flash player doesn't cause Flash to work immediately

2008-05-16 Thread Gerv
John: I think you've mistriaged this. I don't know what the Adobe Flash
Extension Kit is, and I wasn't using it. Nothing showed up in the top
right hand corner of the page. He visited YouTube, and it told him (in
the page) either JS is off or you need an upgraded Flash, and gave him
a link to Macromedia.  Neither Firefox nor Ubuntu did anything special
to prompt Flash installation.

Exactly the same problem was reported in the great Ubuntu Girlfriend Experiment:
http://contentconsumer.com/2008/04/27/is-ubuntu-useable-enough-for-my-girlfriend/
(Second task)

In addition, after installing flashplugin-nonfree via Synaptic we didn't
see any light bulb suggesting that Firefox be restarted. It's possible
we may have missed it, but I don't think so. Regardless, a small
lightbulb appearing wouldn't be enough - you need a desktop
notification.

I work for the Mozilla Foundation, so I do know a bit about how this
works. :-)

[Bug 230530] [NEW] Installing Macromedia flash player doesn't cause Flash to work immediately

2008-05-14 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

I did a usability test recently with my housemate, who has never used
Linux before. We installed Hardy on his Dell laptop after the Windows
install died, and then I watched his first half an hour while giving him
tasks to do. This bug comes out of that experience.

a) The installation process for Flash in Firefox, when prompted via
YouTube, sucks. YouTube gives you a link to the Macromedia website,
which (if you can find your way round it) gives you .tar.gz, rpm or yum.
Not that my housemate knows what any of those are anyway. We need a
process as smooth as the codec download stuff.

c) (The thing this bug is about) Once you've installed flashplugin-
nonfree, Firefox still doesn't work. You have to restart Firefox. But he
didn't know that. He assumed it hadn't worked. Either:

- The installation should end with a screen saying now restart Firefox
or
- It should Just Work(TM).

[Bug 217936] Re: Allow delay of update-manager download start to use cheap bandwidth

2008-05-08 Thread Gerv
Nothing so complicated. Let's not let the best be the enemy of the good.
I'm just asking for a delay mechanism (Start at time X, or Start in X
hours).

'linux-source-2.6.24' is a binary package. This bug has been assigned
to its source package 'linux' instead.

Huh? How can linux-source be a binary package? :-| Oh well, hope it's in

Reopening. The beta kernels seem to alternate between working and not
working. At the moment (2.6.24-16 and 2.6.24-15) they are not working,
so I'm reopening this bug. 2.6.24-14 does work.

[Bug 211302] Re: [hardy] resume displays Policy timeout is not valid. Please wait a few seconds and try again

2008-04-16 Thread Gerv
Having looked at the code in gnome-power-manager, the first error in my
log file could be bogus. It looks like this error comes up if it
receives two commands too quickly (inside the timeout value). The first
suspend may have been initiated pretty quickly after the previous
resume, which is why the message appeared on suspend rather than resume.

It seems odd that the error comes up telling you to try again, but then
the suspend/resume succeeds anyway...

I'll let someone who knows what they are doing take it from here :-)

Taking my cue from the original reporter, here is a full log of

gnome-power-manager --no-daemon --verbose --debug power  gpm.txt 21

It contains two suspends. On the first, the error popped up just as the
screen was fading out to suspend. On the second, it appeared when the
desktop came back on the resume.

Let me know if there's more information you need.

2008-04-16 Thread Gerv
That's handy to know. Although it seems to me that internet tariffs with
unlimited time and pay-per-GB time are reasonably common, so it
would be useful if update-manager had a GUI option to set a time at
which to start the process. Or even a way to say Run an update at time
X:XX every Y days.

[Bug 217936] [NEW] Allow delay of update-manager download start to use cheap bandwidth

2008-04-15 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: update-manager

Downloads via update-manager can be hundreds of megabytes or even
gigabytes, particularly if one is helping test and a lot of packages are
changing.

On the plan I have, bandwidth is free from midnight to 8am but not at
other times. So I would like to do the downloading during this period.
However, I don't want to have to stay up until midnight to set it off.

If there was a command-line switch for do all the downloads, no
questions asked I could use sleep or some other delaying script. That
would be fine. But there is no such option. Can we have one please, or
some other mechanism by which to delay the upgrade process to a certain
time?

[Bug 217941] [NEW] Rounded corners for some apps on maximised windows mean you close the app behind by mistake!

2008-04-15 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: metacity

Scenario:

- You are using the default Ubuntu theme, which has rounded corners for windows
- You have a maximised window for application A and, in front of it, a 
non-maximised window for application B which is positioned in the top right 
corner using the neat sticky/snap-to feature
- You smash your mouse into the top right, taking advantage of Fitts Law, and 
click to close application B

Expected: Application B closes
Actual: Application A closes, because the corners are rounded and so you 
actually hit the close button of the application behind!

This is really counter-intuitive. If you want to have rounded corners,
fine, but you need to keep the target area for the close button the
same, and square. It's caught me enough times now that I've switched to
UbuntuClassic, which doesn't have rounded corners.

[Bug 217943] [NEW] Suspend no longer works in Hardy on Dell Dimension 8300

2008-04-15 Thread Gerv
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

In Gutsy, I was surprised and pleased to find that suspend (suspend-to-
RAM) started working on my Dell Dimension 8300 desktop. This was
wonderful. However, it's no longer working in Gutsy. When I try and
resume, the hard disk ticks but nothing ever comes back.

I followed the instructions here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend
Here is the dmesg.txt from the successful boot following the failed boot; 
hopefully, it has extracted the information about the failing driver from the 
RTC. I also attach an lspci -vvv.

Please let me know what other info you need.

You didn't say whether from the broken boot or the good boot. lspci
isn't available on the broken boot, and I have no way of getting the
dmesg output out of the computer because I can't access my disks or
mount a USB drive. So here are the files from a good boot.

Let me know if there's anything else you need. I could probably manually
