[Bug 764591] Re: Broadcom brcm80211 driver hangs Lenovo S10-3s

2011-06-28 Thread J.A. Watson
Thanks EVER SO MUCH to the Ubuntu developers for taking the time to
investigate and fix this bug.  NOT!  It continues to be ignored, just
like every other bug I have ever reported to Ubuntu.  I'm sure this is
very inspiring to the ever-increasing number of users who are buying
laptops and netbooks with this wireless adapter in them.  I can only
assume that the Ubuntu developers are too busy
breaking/removing/changing things in the next release to alienate even
more users to take the time to actually look at this.

2011-06-08 Thread J.A. Watson
First, for the above commands, /etc/rc.local is exectued as root, so
there is no need to use "sudo".  Second, although these commands avoid
the problem sometimes, at other times they cause the system to hang
while booting, so they are not an acceptable work-around for this
problem.  However, manually executing these commands after booting and
logging in will usually get the Broadcom 4313 working - usually, but
still not always, about 10% of the time the system still hangs after the
second command is entered.

Also, I have confirmed that this problem still exists in the Oneiric
Alpha, and in the Oneiric daily build up to and including 7 June.

This bug also exists with the upstream kernels, at least as far as
v2.6.38-7-natty (02063807).  There seems to be no upstream kernel for
2.6.38-8, and although I tried the 2.6.39.rc4 kernel, it did not
recognize the Broadcom adapter at all, obviously because it is missing
the necessary modules on my system.

It is unfortunate that this bug report is being ignored.  I do not
understand the significance of changing "affects" from ubuntu to linux.
If this is an attempt to say that this is a general linux bug, rather
than an Ubuntu specific bug, I would point out that this bug does NOT
exist on the latest version of: Debian (6.0.1), openSuSE (11.4) or
SimplyMEPIS (11).  I have personally loaded and configured all three of
those on the exact same system where Ubuntu has this problem, and they
do not have the problem.

This is one of the reasons that I very seldom report bugs to Ubuntu -
they are invariably ignored, until they can either be flagged as
"duplicate of xx", or several years have passed and out of the blue
an email comes along asking for additional information.

[Bug 764591] [NEW] Broadcom brcm80211 driver hangs Lenovo S10-3s

2011-04-18 Thread J.A. Watson
Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 11.04 Beta 2  (2.6.38-8  x86_64)

On a Lenovo Ideapad S10-3s which includes a Broadcom 4313 WiFi adapter,
should use the brcm80211 driver.  On first boot after installation the
Wireless Networking is disabled in Network Manager and can not be
enabled.  If the acer_wmi module is blacklisted or removed with
"modprobe -r acer_wmi" it is then possible to enable Wireless Networking
in Network Manager, however the Broadcom 4313 still does not work.
Checking with "rfkill list" shows that two devices are soft-blocked,
ideadpad_wlan and phy0.  If these are enabled using "rfkill unblock
all", the operating system hangs, completely blocked from everything
short of a power cycle.  This does NOT occur on other Linux
distributions using the brcm80211 driver, such as Debian Squeeze and
openSuSE 11.4.

Other symptoms of this problem:  removing the "ideapad_laptop" kernel
module with "modprobe -r" causes the ideadpad_wlan device to disappear
from "rfkill list".  However, attempting to enable Wireless with "rfkill
unblock phy0" still hangs the system.  Likewise, blacklisting
ideapad_laptop in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf causes the S10 to hang
on boot.

[Bug 408209] [NEW] Grub 2 multiboot config wrong with Mandriva

2009-08-02 Thread J.A. Watson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub-pc

Installing Karmic Alpha 3 on multi-boot systems, with Mandriva 2009.1
(or its derivatives) being one of the other installed distributions.
Mandriva puts the partition information in menu.lst on the "kernel" and
"initrd" lines, like this:

title linux
kernel (hd0,5)/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=linux 
root=UUID=cbe56721-313a-49c2-9e06-6ac78a5df00f 
resume=UUID=ed97fbf1-7965-465f-8a29-5698bb23502d splash=silent vga=788
initrd (hd0,5)/boot/initrd.img

When Grub 2 creates its grub.cfg (and previously
/etc/grub.d/30_otheros), it correctly strips the device specification
from the kernel line and converts it to a "root" specification, but it
does not strip the device from the initrd line, and thus leaves an
invalid boot specification such as this:

# This entry automatically added by the Debian installer for an existing
# linux installation on /dev/sda6.
menuentry "linux (on /dev/sda6)" {
set root=(hd0,6)
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set cbe56721-313a-49c2-9e06-6ac78a5df00f

2009-01-28 Thread J.A. Watson
Hi,

Sorry for the delay.  I decided that the easiest way to get the logs 
(and the other crash files) to you was to file the report directly from 
the LiveCD after the install crashes.  That created a new bug report, 
number 322293, also in my name, with all of the files attached.

The crash occurs with both the 8.10 and 9.04 LiveCD installations.

[Bug 319526] [NEW] crashed when installing to partition > 9

2009-01-21 Thread J.A. Watson
Public bug reported:

When trying to install 9.04 Alpha 3 from the LiveCD to any partition
greater than 9 (i.e. with a two-digit partition number, such as sda10,
sda11 ...), the installation crashes at the point where it tries to
install GRUB, with an error reporting that "ubiquity" has crashed.

Note that this bug is apparently not new with 9.04, I have subsequently
tried the same installation from the 8.10 LiveCD, and it crashes at the
same place.

Other Linux distributions install correctly to these partitions,
including Debian 5.0 Beta, PCLinuxOS 2009 Beta 2 and SimplyMEPIS 8.0 RC1

2008-12-08 Thread J.A. Watson
Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to contact me about this again.

Unfortunately, this is still a problem for me.  I have been following 
the recent discussions and changes in the Network Manager package, and 
although it appears that those changes have solved this problem for 
those with the Sierra Wireless Air Card on the AT&T cellular network, it 
most certainly has not solved the problem for my Sierra Wireless card on 
the Swisscom network.

The symptoms, and work-around, remain almost the same, although the 
recent Network Manager changes have altered things slightly.  Running 
Ubuntu with the latest updates as of this morning (8 Dec 2008),  The 
result is as follows in /var/log/daemon.log:

2008-10-27 Thread J.A. Watson
A small variation of the work-around works with non-branded cards, such
as the Swisscom Unlimited Data card, also.  If you can set up a working
wvdial.conf file, and use wvdial to connect the card once, then remove
everything except *99# from the Network Manager configuration as
described above, the Swisscom card will then connect through Network
Manager.

[Bug 277372] Re: lenovo x200 incorrect resolution && gnome prop. crash SIGSEGV in strcmp()

2008-10-17 Thread J.A. Watson
The screen properties crash was fixed for me several updates ago.
However, the screen resolution problem with multiple displays connected
persists, and is reproducible on my system with an Intel 965 display
adapter.  In fact, because I work with several different versions of
Linux, I can give some more information from two different perspectives
on this resolution problem.

First, what is supposed to happen, or be possible, when two displays are
connected at the same time?  It appears to me, from what I have seen and
read, there should be two configurations possible: either the two
displays are overlaid (mirrored), or they are separated into two
screens, with one border in common so that the user can move from one to
the other my simply moving the mouse past the common edge.  If there are
other possibilities, I am unaware of them.

In the first case, with the two screens mirrored, and assuming that they
have different resolution (my laptop display is 1280x800 and my external
display is 1280x1024), the important question is, what resolution is
chosen for the combined display?  Running Ubuntu 8.10 with the latest
updates and patches, it selects what appears to be the highest common
resolution, which is my case turns out to be 1024x768.  Although this
works, it is not a particularly good resolution for either of them, and
the result is not pleasing.  However, running Ubuntu 8.04.1 or Mandriva
2009.0, the resolution is set to 1280x1024 (the highest of the two), and
the image on the lower resolution display is simply clipped at the
bottom.  This produces a much more pleasing effect - in particular if
you keep in mind that if you are choosing a mirrored setup, you probably
don't want/need to see both displays, you are more likely going to close
the laptop case, and work only on the external monitor, in which case
you would prefer to get the full resolution (1280x1024) rather than the
reduced "common" resolution (1024x768).

In the second case, when the mirrored display is not selected, Ubuntu
8.10 works perfectly - it warns the user that the buffer size is
currently not large enough, it makes the change, and once the user has
restarted the X server (generally by logging out and back in), the
adjacent displays are nearly perfect.  The only problem I have seen with
this is that the trash can icon in the lower panel is misplaced, it
looks like it is at 1024 width rather than 1280.  The non-mirrored setup
did not work correctly at all with Ubuntu 8.04, if I recall correctly,
and although it works in Mandriva 2009.0, it requires that the user edit
the xorg.conf file manually, calculate the necessary virtual screen size
and enter those numbers in the appropriate places.

It is also worth noting that on Mandriva 2009.0, once the xorg.conf file
has been edited so that the non-mirrored setup works (which involves
overwriting the screen resolutions), the mirrored setup no longer works
correctly, it then starts to select 1024x768 as the mirrored resolution,
the same as Ubuntu 8.10.  I don't know if that gives any significant
hint as to where the problem might be.

Thanks again for looking into this.  If there is anything else I can do
or test, I am happy to help.

[Bug 278992] [NEW] Mobile Broadband does not connect Sierra Wireless in Switzerland

2008-10-06 Thread J.A. Watson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

Running Intrepid Beta, the Network Manager / Mobile Broadband fails to
connect a Sierra Wireless 880 card to the Swisscom service provider.
This configuration DID work in Intrepid Alpha-6, and I have one laptop
on which that setup is still installed and working.

Details:

- Under Intrepid Alpha-6, the Sierra Wireless 880 shows up in the
Network Manager as "Auto GSM network connection".  I am able to connect
and disconnect that network with no problem.

- Under Intrepid Beta, on the same laptop, when the card is inserted a
"configuration assistant" starts, and I select Switzerland as the
country, and Swisscom as the service provider.  The card then shows up
in the Network Manager list as "Swisscom", but when I try to connect, it
briefly attempts and then says "network disconnected".

- If I put the correct parameters in the /etc/wvdial.conf file (provided
to me by Swisscom), I can then connect manually by running "sudo
wvdial".

I am presently not allowing any more updates to the Alpha-6 system, so
that I do not lose the configuration where this works properly.  I can
provide any additional information from that system which may be
necessary.

I think this is a significant issue, because when it works properly, as
it does on Alpha-6, it is very nice, and would be a very significant
advantage for the Intrepid release to have.

[Bug 273543] Re: Laptop external screen resolution wrong

2008-10-06 Thread J.A. Watson
I have done quite a bit more testing and experimentation with the
Intrepid Beta release, and compared the way this works with Ubuntu Hardy
Heron and Mandriva 2009 RC1.  I think that what Intrepid is doing is
very close to being "correct", and is considerably better than it was
with Hardy.

- With and external display capable of 1280x1024 resolution connected,
and the laptop display capable of 1280x800, by default Intrepid sets
these two displays to "mirror", but with a maximum resolution of
1024x768.  This is similar to what Hardy did, and what Mandriva does,
except both of them offer 1280x1024 resolution, and then "clip" the
image on the laptop display accordingly.  Basically, the problem is that
Intrepid not only doesn't choose a default resolution of 1280x1024 when
the two displays are mirrored, but that it doesn't even off this
resolution as an option in "mirrored" mode.

- If I remove "Mirror Screens" in the Monitor Resolution Settings, I am
then able to select 1280x1024 on the external display, and 1280x800 on
the laptop display, and I can change the relative positions of the two
displays to anywhere around each other - but I still can't overlay them,
as they would be if they were correctly "mirrored".

>From this it appears to me that the problem is not with the detection,
resolution or handling of the two displays, it is with the selection of
the resolution when they are "mirrored".

[Bug 273971] Re: Firefox 3.0.2 problem with Citrix ICA Client

2008-10-06 Thread J.A. Watson
I have tested this problem with the Intrpeid Beta release, and it is
still exactly the same:

- With the standard Intrepid Beta distribution, including Firefox 3.0.3,
the Citrix ICA Client does not work.  It gets to the point where it says
"SecureHCLoader init...", and then says "SecureHCLoaded bail", and
thereafter no clients will start.

- If I disable the Ubuntu extension for Firefox, the Citrix ICA Client
then works normally

- If I download and install the Firefox 3.0.3 distribution from Mozilla,
the Citrix ICA client works

[Bug 273971] Re: Firefox 3.0.2 problem with Citrix ICA Client

2008-09-25 Thread J.A. Watson
This problem is somehow related to the Firefox Extension "Ubuntu Firefox
Modifications 06~b1".  If I disable that extension, the Citrix ICA
client works correctly.

A bit more detailed information on the problem: When the Citrix ICA
Client starts, it starts to load the Juniper Networks Secure Host
Checker, and gives the message "Applet SecureHCLauncher init", and then
immediately says "Applet SecureHCLauncher bail"

[Bug 273971] [NEW] Firefox 3.0.2 problem with Citrix ICA Client

2008-09-24 Thread J.A. Watson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

Firefox 3.0.2 distributed with Intrepid does not work with Citrix ICA
Client 10.6.  I have just verified this again with the latest update
(3.0.2+build6+nobinonly+0ubuntu1).  Several important points for
comparison:

- This problem did not exist with the Firefox 3.0.1 release originally
included with Intrepid

- This problem does not exist with the Firefox 3.0.2 release that I just
downloaded from Mozilla and installed

Somehow, it is unique to the 3.0.2 release included with Intrepid

I believe that the problem is actually with the Juniper Networks
software (Host Checker and/or Setup Client) that is used by the ICA
Client.  When I try to use the ICA Client, it gets to the point where it
says it is initializing the Juniper modules, and then it either says
"...bailed" or "...died", and the ICA Client hangs.

I still have both the Mozilla and Intrepid versions of Firefox 3.0.2
installed, in different directories of course, so it is easy to switch
between them and test.

[Bug 273543] [NEW] Laptop external screen resolution wrong

2008-09-23 Thread J.A. Watson
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Running on a Fujitsu Lifebook S6510, with a port replicator and an
external Acer LCD display.  Using 8.04.1 this was handled reasonably
well; when booted with the external display connected, the initial
resolution was 1280x1024, and when booted with only the laptop display,
initial resolution was 1280x800.  Using 8.10 Alpha-6, when booted with
the external display connected the initial resolution is 1024x768 (when
booting with only the laptop display the resolution is correct,
1280x800).

Examining the /var/log/Xorg.0.log file, I see that the server does in
fact properly detect the Acer display, and reads the available modes,
including 1280x1024.  However, in the log file on 8.10 there is a line
which reads:

/var/log/Xorg.0.log:(II) intel(0): Using fuzzy aspect match for initial
modes

When the external display is not connected, the corresponding line in
the log file reads:

/var/log/Xorg.0.log.old:(II) intel(0): Using exact sizes for initial
modes

There is no such line in the log file under 8.04.1.

Also, when I try to adjust the screen resolution there are no values
higher than 1024x768 listed.

Thanks.
