[Bug 177492] Re: EXA is balls-achingly slow
855GM. This is not fixed for me. The option increases the usability by a large factor leading me to believe that it is NOT "fixed" if I still have to enter it manually to get firefox to scroll without crawling... -- EXA is balls-achingly slow https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177492 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 151311] Re: DDC report some ridiculous physical screen size (Mostly on Intel driver, and some ATI)
I hope this isn't annoying my four posts in a row... but I like to think I'm hopefully giving helpful beneficial information. The crashing of gnome-settings-daemon appears to be that other bug I referenced above and after implementing the workaround I have the intel driver working (after a whole bug of mangling with xorg.conf though) with the right resolution and dpi. -- DDC report some ridiculous physical screen size (Mostly on Intel driver, and some ATI) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151311 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 197153] Re: gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV
I can confirm the same on an Intel 855GM card. After implementing fixes from this bug (where you'll see my other comments) and disabling xrandr in gconf-editor I am able to use the intel driver, at the correct resolution and DPI without xrandr crashing. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/151311) On the other hand, this may be a bug with the actual intel driver, it feels slower than th i810 driver.

[Bug 151311] Re: DDC report some ridiculous physical screen size (Mostly on Intel driver, and some ATI)
Attached are the Xorg.0.logs for 1st - using the 'intel' driver with no adjustments 2nd - using the 'intel' driver plus doing the following: (this log is included in the next post... only one attachment at a time) * Setting DisplaySize for my Monitor * Adding the Option "Monitor-LVDS" "Configured Monitor" to my xorg.conf I don't know why, but those two things APPEARS to get the fonts right (presumably with the intel driver) on my GDM screen and I'm about to check and see if gnome-settings-daemon survives. How can I check and make sure intel is in use and I'm not wasting my time debugging VESA kicking in? thanks. Yep, gnome-settings-daemon crashes upon attempt to login "The Settings Daemon restarted too many times" Attempting to run "gnome-settings-daemon" as superuser from the CLI gives: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59867/ Finally, I'm afraid there is some sort of bug overlap.

[Bug 151311] Re: DDC report some ridiculous physical screen size (Mostly on Intel driver, and some ATI)
Sorry, I admit I was a bit frustrated earlier and was a tad unwilling to spend much more time with this bug, but today I'm more geared up. I've attachment my Xorg.0.log. This is basically a result what ubuntu sets up EXCEPT for when I specify the 'i810' driver (like I've stated ubuntu defaults to 'intel'). My graphics card is: Intel Integrated 855GM (Intel(r)852GM/852GME/855GM/855GME) I think I managed to get it working by specifying DisplaySize but... it was strange. It cause gnome-settings-daemon to crash (every single time and starting it from CLI gave a core segfault) and so it may have been a combination of things leading to a sluggish feel that I was attributing to the intel driver. So basically, my workaround stands for me of switching back to i810 (I keep saying this in case someone else sees this with the same problem :D) If someone wants, I'll be around #ubuntu+1 for basically... all day today and most of tomorrow so I can try things at will. I've got another computer so I can get on IRC there and test stuff here and go through different test scenarios if that would be helpful. ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12697939/Xorg.0.log -- DDC report some ridiculous physical screen size (Mostly on Intel driver, and some ATI) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151311 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 202543] [NEW] Gnome-Appearance-Properties fails to Alllow Custom Compiz Settings
Public bug reported: Step 1: Install simple-ccsm. Install compizconfig-settings-manager. Step 2: Remove simple-ccsm (because its... too simple) ** gnome-appearance-properties no longer allows you to choose "custom" settings ** Step 3: Reinstall simple-ccsm. Try to select "Custom Settings". Nothing appears to happen. Close appearance dialog and reopen... it doesn't have Custom selected... ??? Step 4: Choose "Extra" effects and then open the compizconfig-settings- manager... for some reason despite the fact that custom may not be an option and "Extra" is chosen... its actually allowing you to configure everything.

[Bug 151311] Re: DDC report some ridiculous physical screen size (Mostly on Intel driver, and some ATI)
To give some more information: I got it working with the correct DisplaySize and I seemed to have gotten it to where the dpi was correct but good god was it slow. I've never seen firefox render anything quite so slowly or a simple picture to load. I was watching it as it scanned from top to bottom... So, I'm not sure what's going on now. I guess I'll wait. I've spent about two hours trying to get something working to no avail.

[Bug 151311] Re: DDC report some ridiculous physical screen size (Mostly on Intel driver, and some ATI)
Despite what the comments here imply. My intel driver is very much ignoring Option "DisplaySize" still and is making the fonts far too large. I am completely up to date with my Hardy upgrades.

[Bug 141001] Re: Large fonts in window titles
I was having a somewhat similar problem in the beta and I just kind of waited it out. The problem seemed to come and go with updates. I even had the problem on the very first run after my new install. My resolution was to set the font to '1' which worked for a while. Then (maybe an update) caused it to remedy itself until I restarted again today... and when it booted back up it was messed up again... anyhow, here's a screenshot with the large window title bar font and the font appearance dialog so you can see what I'm saying. btw, this isn't large fonts compared to y'alls screenshots... they are huge! ** Attachment added: "BUG.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10124327/BUG.png -- Large fonts in window titles https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/141001 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
