[Bug 507293] Re: sound-juicer crashed with SIGSEGV in start_thread()

2010-02-10 Thread Jonathan Lozinski
Well annoyed by this bug.  I have been suffering from a bug with the DVD
drive being completely broken on ubuntu since about 3 releases ago.  I
thought I had a duff drive, so replaced my IDE drive with brand new SATA
burner instead.

Imagine my shock to see that the bug is now WORSE.  I've been an ubuntu
user since the start, and exclusively linux for about 10 years.  This
bug is really wearing me thin.  I can't rip an audio CD any more.  I
tried installing fedora.  Same bug, same problems.  Believe it or not I
have contemplated ditching linux for windows 7, such is my frustration
that things that were once in a "just works" state are moving into "just
doesn't work"...  I know this is all off topic, but really need to get
it off my chest

[Bug 510563] [NEW] Opening File when Playlist active wipes playlist

2010-01-21 Thread Jonathan Lozinski
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: totem

This is probably one of the most frustrating bugs which leads me to
remember why I stop using Totem from time to time.

If you have a playlist that you're working through, and you then click
on a media file (which opens in the default, Totem) it wipes your
playlist, stops playing what you're playing and you loose your playlist.

If you are working through a playlist of videos/podcasts etc. losing
your place and track of where you are in a list of 10/20 files this is
unbelievably annoying.

Steps:
1. Open Totem
2. Add several items to the playlist for listening/viewing
3. Start listening to an item in the playlist
4. Open a Nautilus window
5. Browse to a media file
6. Click on a media file
7. Note how what you were doing is now gone and playlist lost, you're now 
watching that video

What should happen:
Either a new instance of Totem which doesn't lose what I was doing, or add the 
new file to the playlist.  What it certainly should not do is wipe something I 
took time to get set up and stop playing something that I'm in the middle of.  
I might pause what I'm doing and then want to quickly view a small video/audio 
file, I still want to return to that activity.

Current Work-around:
Don't use totem for playlists, or set something else as the default handler.  
If you do these things, then it won't wreck your playlist because you're using 
two different apps for the same thing.

I cant seem to label it on my android phone. However, either way, it should

No need to unmount first, just remount (unmount and mount) after changing
the label in order
to see the mountpoint at your newly given label /media/label.
This works great and i hope that canonical will keep this in future
releases.
The disk, disk-1 solution wasn't working either and confuses a lot more.

[Bug 474650] [NEW] Mounted Volume Names are hex strings, not volume name

2009-11-04 Thread Jonathan Lozinski
Public bug reported:

Since updating to karmic, nautilus will display the mounted volume as,
for example, "160GB Drive", but when mounted, every reference within the
system is as "01EFC-DFDFD-DFDFD-DFDFDF" or similar.

This is poor for users who don't understand what on earth that is.  I
belive the problem is due to dropping HAL, which I think sorted out neat
mount points (or symlinks to the volume id) using the name.

I think that puts this bug in device kit, but I can't fathom how to
report a bug in a given package, I know it's not a bug in nautilus, as
it's in the gtk browser and also any terminal access.  It took me about
half an hour to find how to register this bug in launchpad, I almost
gave up.  but. that's another bug for another place..

If you want to recreate the bug, just attach a large drive maybe a usb
key.  See in nautilus it referred to as 160GB drive, mount and enter
some folders.  See the path bar in the nautilus window reference the hex
string.

Thanks.

2009-05-06 Thread Jonathan Lozinski
I noticed this and it took me a while to find what was responsible.  For
me when viewing processes in system monitor there was an un-named
process which kept respawning, dieing and creating a new process every
second or so.

I tracked it to vino-server.  I think the problem with eating processor
must relate to some threading code.

[Bug 123820] nvidia driver useEDID work-around causes worse problems

2007-07-03 Thread Jonathan Lozinski
Public bug reported:

The toshiba satellite 704 laptop suffers from the EDID issues many
others have noted.  The previous nvidia binary driver releases used
IgnoreEDID set to true which did fix the issue.

The latest move the useEDID set to false.  This does not however work on
the 704, it results in bars of bleeding colours etc on the screen that
look as though damage could well be being done to the dispay.

I have tried all the work arounds other than this and no success.  to
reproduce simply add the Option "useEDID" "false" to the device section
of the x config.

Note, that I did succeed in rewriting a bin dump of the EDID data which
is received when actually using the EDID data in the driver.  details of
this are in this bug report:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-
modules-2.6.20/+bug/91292

someone suggested I register a new bug regarding the EDID work-around
failing even worse.

2007-06-30 Thread Jonathan Lozinski
Sitsofo:
Sorry, I neglected to mention that UseEDID causes massive corruption on the 
screen.  This is why I needed to debug the EDID data and give a propper fix.  
The EDID thing used to work in earlier drivers, but not any more..

I know the nv driver worked at 1024, however not sure about the EDID
data.  I suppose if I debuged would it show it like the nvidia?  Do you
suppose there is a way to have the nv driver dump the edid.bin data, and
then force the nvidia driver to use that, possibly optionally, to create
a more robust fix for others?

[Bug 91292] I Have A Fix (It's Just a Pain ;)

2007-06-29 Thread Jonathan Lozinski
Hi guys,
I have been plagued with the poor EDID stuff on my toshiba from day one.  
Anyway.  I was looking through the docs and trying to get a better idea of why 
1024x768 was not valid.  The docs point you to running x as follows:

startx -- -verbose 6 -logverbose 6

this resulted in the EDID information in my Xorg log.  Here is the stuff
which was important:

-snip-
(--) NVIDIA(0): --- EDID for Nvidia Default Flat Panel (DFP-0) ---
(--) NVIDIA(0): EDID Version : 1.3
(--) NVIDIA(0): Manufacturer : NVD
(--) NVIDIA(0): Monitor Name : Nvidia Default Flat Panel
(--) NVIDIA(0): Product ID   : 0
(--) NVIDIA(0): 32-bit Serial Number : 0

(--) NVIDIA(0): EDID maximum pixel clock : 70.0 MHz
(--) NVIDIA(0):

(--) NVIDIA(0): HSyncEnd, HTotal : 1184, 1344
(--) NVIDIA(0): VRes, VSyncStart : 768, 771
(--) NVIDIA(0): VSyncEnd, VTotal : 777, 806
(--) NVIDIA(0): H/V Polarity : -/-
-snip

Now the thing I notices was that it was under the impression that the
DFP was 969 pixels.  This was a pain.  It's 1024.  The 1024 was being
reject as it was too big for the DFP.  It also explained why there was a
black line on the right at lower modes (the scale was to 969, missing
the last 55px off.  Here clearly was my EDID problem in evidence.

Now the solving - it's nasty but works for me.  The drive allows for
EDIDs to come from another file:

Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/etc/X11/edid.bin"

the place to get that EDID file is a dump from nvidia-settings.  Now to
hunt down 969 and set to 1024.   Hexedit for the binary file was used.
969 in Hex = 3C9, 1024 = 400.  So I had to change 3C9 to 400 and I was a
winner.  The edid data from the file is:

(--) NVIDIA(0): --- End of EDID for Nvidia Default Flat Panel (DFP-0) ---

However the closest match to 3C9 was the C9 in the 4th line.  I upped
that a little to CC, and low and behold it increased the screen size in
the log to a few pixels more.  I upped it to FF and I was at 1023px.  00
back to 640..  booo.  so close.

I had to find that 3.  i messed around with all sorts and diffed the
logs to see what data changed.  Then I finally found which 3 it was.
Just a couple of digits along, not sure why the 77 was skiped, but
chaging that to a 4 and it worked!  I now have a working X and am about
to sort beryl.

So that line now was changed:

(--) NVIDIA(0):   01 01 01 01 01 01 64 19  __c9__ 77 __3__1 00 26 30 4f 88
(--) NVIDIA(0):   01 01 01 01 01 01 64 19  __00__ 77 __4__1 00 26 30 4f 88

Sorry that this is a real long post.  It's just that it's not really a
fix that people can sort unless they know where to look.  Perhaps this
will fix all peoples issues, but I suspect that it may only work for
people with the same specs as me.  My machine is a toshiba satelite 704,
with 1024x768 screen.  I really hope this helps people resolve this
issue, and again sorry for the long post, but Its amazing I managed to
fix it!

I have attached my working edid.bin file for people to try if they're
feeling brave, perhaps it works in all cases...

Thanks
