[Bug 1294899] Re: Import saved VPN connection has been Recently Broken
Erik, I'm using StrongVPN. I've used the same .ovpn now for several years and it used to work fine. I tried opening US West.ovpn from your .zip and it came in fine. I could not actually test the configuration of course since I didn't have username and password. I suppose this points to a compatibility issue? After successful import of your file, I went to StrongVPN and got a newer .ovpn file. It uses inline certs instead of separate cert files. Sadly, when I try to import it I get this error message: Cannot import VPN connection The file '.ovpn' could not be read or does not contain recognized VPN connection information Error: Key file contains line 'remote 72.18.194.140 500 udp' which is not a key-value pair, group, or comment.

[Bug 1294899] Re: Import saved VPN connection has been Recently Broken
I can confirm that OpenVPN import function does not work on any of the numerous systems that I have upgraded from Xubuntu 14.04 to 16.04. I note that I have all of the required packages installed and that the .ovpn file I'm using have worked in the past under 14.04. In case it matters, the .ovpn files NOT use inline certs which is apparently the cause of another related OVPN bug. In summary then, when attempting to import a .ovpn file, I get the following error message: Cannot import VPN connection The file '.ovpn' could not be read or does not contain recognized VPN connection information Error: the plugin does not support import capability With some trial and error I was able to manually configure the settings using the ovpn file as a guide.

[Bug 441835] Re: Clicking on floppy gives "no device media found"
I only follow this bug from time so I apologize if the following suggestion is treading on old ground. It is true that floppies are no longer the norm for most users, but Linux/Ubuntu should still provide reasonable support since there remains a mountain of expensive to replace hardware out there that still uses them. Ultimately, I think the question boils down to what do we mean by reasonable support? Perhaps auto probing is too much to expect so maybe we don't even try to resolve that mess. Instead, we aim to make a simple way to manually tell the OS that the computer has a floppy after the OS is installed. If this flag is set then the OS does whatever it should to make working with the floppy easy. That means GUI and cli functions that work properly and smoothly. If the floppy present flag is false then the OS hides all floppy related functions from the user. This avoids autoprobe issues and eliminates confusion for new users who are going to wonder why there's a floppy icon on the desktop when they don't have a floppy drive in their machine. Let me emphasize that I'm an engineer and not a software developer so I recognize that what I propose here may or may not be easy to implement for a variety of reasons. Nonetheless it seems we need to do something to move past the impasse on this question of floppy support and get something that works reasonably well for everyone.

Looks like this one persists in Natty Beta. Worse, I see no option in Natty to downgrade to the old version of udisks as was the case in Lucid.

[Bug 689125] [NEW] Lucid hard crash with usb web cam and VMWare
Public bug reported: For reference I'm using VMWare Workstation 7.1.3 build-324285 and Ubuntu 10.04 with a Logitech QuickCam 9000 USB Webcam. I'm not sure if this is a bug with VMware or Ubuntu. In any event its clear that they DO NOT play well together when using Logitech 9000 USB. For example, when starting a Windows XP session in VMWare everything works fine until I attempt to connect the USB webcam to the virtual machine. At that point, the whole system - including VMware guest and the Ubuntu host! The freeze is hard with lockout on keyboard, mouse, and network so the only recourse is to power cycle the machine. I have done some research on this issue before posting this bug report. You will find two workarounds here: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/257460 The key point here is that the snd_usb_audio module is the culprit. I have confirmed that both workarounds discussed above solve the crash problem. Unfortunately, neither is a completely acceptable solution. Option 1 leaves open the chance for a hard freeze if one isn't very careful with enabling/disabling the USB audio device in Sound preferences. Option 2 disables all USB audio on the host which isn't very helpful if one wants to use the webcam directly on the Ubuntu host! I'm reporting this bug here in hopes that if it is a bug on the Ubuntu side that it will be pushed upstream to the appropriate team. I will also submit a bug report to VMware on the chance that it is in their court. Perhaps someone from the Ubuntu developer side could contact VMWare tech support and have a faster chance of resolving the problem? In terms of triage I would rate this bug serious since it results in hard freeze which as we all know can cause system damage and loss of data. Lastly, even though this may indeed be a VMWare issue, I would hope folks on the Ubuntu team will still help resolve the issue as it is technologies such as VMware that enable people to migrate away from the dominant OS and onto Ubuntu.

Re: [Bug 225785] Re: using default encrypted LVM settings with 1.5 TB disk makes huge swap space
Brian, Thanks for taking time to classify this one. I got stuck with some hi priority items at work when I was in the middle of filing the initial report and had to drop it without taking time to classify it. Sorry... I'm sure that there's probably an easy fix to this one that will put reasonable bounds on swap. In addition to that however I think the installer should always display a summary and confirmation screen prior to going through setup. This way we can check things and be sure it makes sense before we waste time formatting and loading the OS. In my case I didn't discover the problem until a week or so after initial install at which point I had substantial additional software loaded and configured. Of course all of this had to be redone after correcting the config error. John Brian Murray wrote: > Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make > Ubuntu better.

[Bug 225785] [NEW] using default encrypted LVM settings with 1.5 TB disk makes huge swap space
Public bug reported: Using Ubuntu 8.04 Alternate AMD64 installation on system with 1.5 TB 3ware HW RAID 5 setup. Selected auto partition using encrypted LVM. Installation proceeded normally. Upon reboot I find installer created an LVM swap area of 499 GB with the remainder going to LVM ROOT. This is a big waste of space and time since there is no display of final configs to check prior to going through the rest of the install. I've used encrypted LVM setup just fine with default settings on my other systems but they all have relatively small disks. I'm guessing that the large disk area is causing math problems in the installer. I've gone through this twice on my system to confirm that I wasn't imagining it. I was able to use manual partitioning and setup a reasonable system with 64 GB swap so there is a work around. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- using default encrypted LVM settings with 1.5 TB disk makes huge swap space https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225785 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 148003] Re: mounting Luks encrypted USB-HDD does not work reliably
WARNING A word of warning to those who have removed the file 65-dmsetup.rules. I had found that this temporary fix worked quite well on all my machines, but got burned when an automatic update of cryptsetup got installed without me thoroughly considering the possible ramifications. The net result was that my machines were rendered unbootable. All I got at startup was a message that my cryptroot could not be found and then routed to a busy box. I'm not entirely sure what happened, but think that 65-dmsetup.rules needs to be there if the update is going to update the initframfs. Without the file the update of initramfs doesn't complete. Since there is no warning of this from update manager, you're stuck with an unbootable system on restart. This was my first major panic with Linux and I spent a lot of time googling and futzing with a LiveCD before I figured out the problem and repaired the mess. Bottom Line: Avoid this situation by putting 65-dmsetup.rules back where it belongs before you run any automatic updates related to the cryptsetup.

[Bug 154679] Re: Can't mount a LUKS volume after unmounting
I've seen this bug as well. It occurs with firewire and usb drives. It appears to assign a new device name each time the drive is plugged in. I wonder how many times this would have to happen before something bigger breaks? This bug is very frustrating since I'm using fully encrypted disks throughout my operation and use . What's the odds of getting a fix on this one sometime soon? -- Can't mount a LUKS volume after unmounting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/154679 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
