[Bug 1194319] Re: Powerpc Live CD Hangs and doesn't complete booting

2013-06-25 Thread James King
Specifically, what happens in my particular case (I have a first
generation Mac Mini) is that the text Plymouth screen will change
background colors from cyan to black. Typically this is a sign that the
boot process is proceeding normally. Usually some extra text will show
up , but currently there is only the text Lubuntu 13.04 and the
loading dots, which continue to change color from white to orange and
back again. On June 22, I let my Mac Mini run overnight to see if there
was some major slowdown, but when I awoke and turned on my monitor, the
loading dots were still dutifully changing color with no progress made,
so I did a forced shutdown from the power switch.

This does NOT occur to me with the daily build from June 13. I did not
test daily builds from June 14 through June 20, but since June 21, the
daily build has not booted properly for me.

[Bug 1193920] [NEW] ubpartman failed first with exit code 141, then with exit code 10, then the installer failed completely.

2013-06-23 Thread James King
Public bug reported:

This began when I tried to install with encrypted and LVM options using
the latest PPC build I possess that boots on my Mac Mini (that build is
from June 13, 2013).  That failed with ubpartman errors: first exit code
141. After clicking try again it returned with exit code 10. It
returned exit code 10 a second time, and I selected quit then the
whole installer crashed and I am now here with a bug report.

[Bug 1193716] Re: Monitor turns off after 10 minutes of inactivity despite the fact that XScreensave has been removed from Suacy Build

2013-06-22 Thread James King
I have to do the same thing when I'm in the classroom and we're watching
a long music performance on MPlayer. I have to remember to keep moving
the mouse every few minutes to restart the clock before the presentation
screen and netbook monitor goes blank. No settings in Power Manager seem
to make a difference. This also happens on liveCD disks ... if I don't
touch a keyboard or mouse for 10 minutes, the screen of my netbook or my
Mac Mini (or any computer I'm installing Lubuntu on) will go blank.

[Bug 592908] Re: Acer 532h Battery Problem

2010-07-11 Thread James King
Not only is this problem causing sudden shutdowns or suspensions of the
netbook (sometimes with embarrassing results like in a classroom
situation where I have spent time talking about the benefits of open
source software), but it causes the power-management records to be
wildly inaccurate, even when using smooth lines. There seems to be
several issues with the Aspire One and 10.04 with regards to power
management. I hope these issues get moved higher up the triage list.

I'm not sure why this bug is now on an invalid status as of May 8. I'm
having issues with this bug too, although I'm not as good as the
previous people as far as trying to trace it. When the crash happens to
me, it happens when I'm selecting text to be removed or changed. The
text usually has a diacritic mark on it that I had copied and pasted
from another source, but not always.

[Bug 403303] Re: power manager reports 1% battery even though it is full on Asus Eee PC netbook

2010-04-30 Thread James King
Just wanted to confirm this problem exists on my Acer Aspire One 532h.
I've noticed when checking statistics that the reported battery model
changes accordingly with the different percentages. I'll take
screenshots to followup if necessary. Is there a workaround where I can
force the computer to accept a particular battery model? I suspect that
would relieve the most critical symptom; when the computer thinks the
battery is at 1% (when it isn't) and suspends/shutsdown/hibernates,
forcing a reboot.

[Bug 473552] Re: Battery incorrectly reported as critcally low at when almost full

2010-04-28 Thread James King
I'm having the same issue with my Aspire One and the Lucid RC. It
wouldn't be a problem except that when the power manager reports the
wrong percentage of power (believing that my battery can hold 270 watts
of power when it only holds about 48) the computer automatically shuts
down (that's the setting I have for low battery in the power settings
preferences). The power manager just seems to start thinking that my
battery can hold much more than it can. I get your battery may be
broken messages as well.

[Bug 469376] Re: USB device insertion causes total system lockup on Ubuntu 9.10

2010-04-26 Thread James King
The problem still exists with Lucid 10.4 ... In fact, I couldn't install
the HSO stuff after the clean install. I had to install 9.10 then do an
upgrade to 10.4 ... when connecting now, I get a message that says not
installed properly -- no internet control but I can still get online.
(I'm using the connection to send this.) I'm getting error messages when
trying to reinstall everything, so I may just have to accept the error
messages and enjoy the internet connection while it lasts. I'd rather
not have to accept the error messages.

2010-04-26 Thread James King
Thank you for making the change. I admit that I'm relatively new at this
and was confused about the NOT UBUNTU even though it said Lucid. So I
thought it was for something specific to Lucid but somehow not a general
Ubuntu issue, which is confusing me more now that I'm trying to explain
it. I apologize for any trouble I may have caused the editor project.

Pat,

I remember having a ton of DNS issues for a while (they're all cleared
up, but for the life of me I wouldn't be able to tell you how), and
all the resolv.conf stuff sounds all too familiar. I use static DNS
(OpenDNS is a good DNS server, Google has a DNS server too) and I
haven't had any troubles for 3 weeks so far.

 Curt:

 Don't know about Evolution because I use Mozilla Thunderbird, but if I
 had to guess, I would almost be willing to bet this will be what you are
 looking for, at least from your description of the problem.

 Potential fix ===

 1) Launch HSOconnect and bring the network up, then open a terminal
 window to verify the file permissions on the /etc/resolv.conf file.

        ls -l /etc/resolv.conf

        If the mode is 600 (-rw--- )rather than the correct 644
 (-rw-r--r-- ) it should be, changing the mode of the file to                  
   it's
 proper setting will provide a quick temporary fix.

        sudo chmod 644 /etc/resolv.conf

        Firefox and Evolution should then work normally without                
          requiring
 sudo, but as I said this is only a temporary fix.
        Every time you bring the network up you would have to change the       
  file
 mode again.

 2) If step 1 above temporarily helped, you can elect to install another
 package which will provide a permanent fix.

        sudo apt-get install resolvconf

 I have found the HSOconnect tools work best if you also install the
 resolvconf package to maintain and update the contents of the
 /etc/resolv.conf file.    Without the resolvconf package installed
 something in the HSOconnect stuff defaults /etc/resolv.conf to 600 every
 time you use HSOconnect which breaks a lot of network things.

 As a minimum, I would gracefully shutdown hsoconnect and re-boot after
 installing resolvconf, but I don't know if this graceful shutdown and
 reboot is actually required.

 I don't remember if I re-built and re-installed the HSO packages after I
 installed the resolvconf package or not.    You may need to have the
 resolvconf package already installed when you build and install the HSO
 stuff, I just do not remember.

 This potential resolvconf fix should help Evolution, Firefox and just
 about any other network application.

 ===

 I strongly suspect the above will fix your problem.  If this really is
 the problem then the breakage is a lot bigger than just Evolution and
 Firefox.

 If this does not fix it, I have something else you can try which is
 Firefox specific.

 On two separate systems I have upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 I get a
 complete, immediate and total system lockup when I install a specific
 device in a USB port.    The device is an ATT Quicksilver GSM/HSDPA
 Cellular modem, on 8.10 and 9.04 systems, lsusb shows the device as Bus
 002 Device 006: ID 0af0:d033 Option.

 On 8.10 and 9.04 systems the device initially shows up as a CDROM
 containing the driver and application software needed on an MS Windows
 box.    There is a linux package ( Ozerocdoff found at
 http://pharscape.org/Quicksilver.html ) from the real device
 Manufacturer Option which uses udev to disable this zerocd and then
 the Option Cellular Modem appears which works with the linux hso kernel
 module.   On a 9.10 system with or without Ozerocdoff installed I get
 the lockup even before the CDROM or Modem appears or is logged.

 The device worked fine in the same systems before the 9.04 to 9.10
 upgrade.  Other USB devices work fine under 9.04 and 9.10.  I have not
 yet tried on a fresh 9.10 install only 9.04 to 9.10 upgrades.

 The lockup is immediate and total.    The only way I have found to
 regain access to the systems is to remove the device, then do a hard
 power cycle.

 I cannot identify or recover any meaningful details from the log files
 in /var/log.

 I would appreciate any clues on how I can capture better debug
 information on this situation.  The immediate and total system lockup
 has me stumped for where to go from here.    I do realize the above is
 insufficient to work with, I am asking for how to capture better
 information for a proper bug report.

Curt, I wish I had a solution for you. Pat's workaround was successful
for me. In fact, I'm using the Quicksilver connection right now to
send this.

Ideally, it would seem to me that the GNOME folks would see what's
different between GNOME's tools (network-manager and modem-manager)
and wicd, make the appropriate changes and include the functionality
of HSOconnect in it.

[Bug 469376] Re: USB device insertion causes total system lockup on Ubuntu 9.10

2010-01-04 Thread James King
Thank you for posting the workaround. I've added the workaround to a
question I had regarding the exact same issue (#91686) and have marked
it solved, even though technically it isn't solved since the answer is a
rather involved workaround. There must not be enough Quicksilver/Ubuntu
users for Canonical to make this kernel panic a higher priority. I
wonder what the threshold is?

[Bug 156540] Re: High pitch whine on left audio channel with Asus K8N-VM

2008-09-13 Thread James King
I did a clean install of Hardy a while back, and to my dismay found that
with pulseaudio being the default sound system, my workaround specified
above no longer works, and reverts to 2-channel sound only.  I've tried
editing /etc/pulse/daemon.conf to add default-sample-channels = 6
(because PA only enables 2-channel playback by default), but I don't get
anything but 2-channel.  Even worse, trying to set the playback to use
ALSA again fails on test with the following message:

audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample !
gconfaudiosink: Could not open audio device for playback.

So surround sound has been completely broken for me since.

You didn't specify a repo to add so that I can install linux-
image-2.6.27-*, so I downloaded the Intrepid alpha 5, booted into it and
still 2-channel sound only.  Edited /etc/pulse/daemon.conf as above and
ran:

killall pulseaudio
pulseaudio 

Test tone still works, but still only 2-channel, even after unmuting all
the appropriate channels.  Note that whether I'm using the installed
Hardy or live Intrepid, I get the following error when I manually
relaunch PA:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ pulseaudio 
[1] 6507
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ALSA lib control.c:909:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL 
front:0


Let me know if there's any other information I can provide.

[Bug 156540] Re: High pitch whine on left audio channel with Asus K8N-VM

2007-10-31 Thread James King
I've found a workaround for this issue:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-4291307.html?sid=2d09aabef90429f5465f9ee35f12456e#4291307

Specifically, setting the playback mode under System-Preferences-Sound
to ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture instead of AD198x Analog
and creating setting up /etc/asound.conf as follows:

pcm.upmix_4ch {
   type plug
   slave.pcm surround40
   slave.channels 4
   route_policy duplicate
}

pcm.default upmix_4ch


Unfortunately, this has the side effect of restricting me to a single
application using audio at any given time, but will have to do until
ALSA bug #2889 is fixed.

Thanks for responding Tim.  I installed linux-backports-modules and
cycled through the above options again, still no change.

[Bug 156540] High pitch whine on left audio channel with Asus K8N-VM

2007-10-23 Thread James King
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic

Using 4ch or 6ch mode on Gutsy with the Asus K8N-VM motherboard onboard
audio (nvidia MCP-51 chipset) results in a high pitched whine on both
the front and rear left channel speakers.  Right and center channels are
unaffected.  The device is listed as AD198x Analog and is using the snd-
hda-intel driver.  Googling around turned up similar issues with other
nforce boards, but all were solved by using one of the following lines
in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base:

options snd-hda-intel index=0 model=3stack position_fix=0 single_cmd=0
options snd-hda-intel position_fix=1 model=3stack
options snd-hda-intel model=3stack
options snd-hda-intel model=auto

I have tried all 4 variations with a reboot in between, and still get
the high pitched whine.  Using 2ch mode eliminates the problem, but
means that 5.1 sound doesn't work.  I have tried muting and unmuting
various combinations of channels and altering levels, none of which has
any positive impact.  Additionally, adjusting any level while sound is
being played results in the audio output abruptly dying (I was using the
test under System-Preferences-Sound).  The only fix is to stop any
application using the device and adjust the main audio level on the
system tray applet, which seems to restore sound.

$ tail -2 /proc/asound/oss/sndstat
Mixers:
0: Analog Devices AD1986A

Will attach debugging outputs.  This bug is similar to #89036 and
#90303.
