[Bug 1283404] Re: Duplicity fails to back up local files to Ubuntu One
Working now for me, including sync. Unfortunately, I have to agree with an affected user in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntuone- client/+bug/1282759 : no announcement or even a twitter post by Canonical when your service is down for 3 days, doesn't look very professional to me Service outages happen, and Ubuntu One basic service is free, so nobody expects enterprise level uptime. However, with better communication, several bug reports here in Launchpad and several questions in askubuntu.com would have been avoided. Hopefully, next time, there will be something like File sync services, including backups, will be down for a few days for some users, don't panic. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1283404 Title: Duplicity fails to back up local files to Ubuntu One To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+bug/1283404/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 191514] Re: Kernel upgrades may leave system unbootable when its hibernated during the upgrade
A good point in a comment earlier: A small warning dialog like Warning: the package manager is working right now, it is strongly recommended to wait for it to finish. and the user's options could be like proceed anyways / wait and proceed / cancel. Of course this could also be a text-based dialog if you're going to call poweroff, reboot or pm-whatsoever from shell. Unattended upgrades is often the update method of choice on the computers of numerous non-computer-savvy desktop users - the more informed friends/relatives turn it on to keep the security up-to-date without user interaction, which may not be possible because the user doesn't know the superuser password required for the upgrade. In this case, a clear warning for the user would be useful, in order to prevent the confused user from forcibly shutting down the computer (by pulling the plug, for example). The easiest way to do this would probably be a LOCALIZED uppercase message in the stdout. Something like ATTENTION! THE COMPUTER IS PERFORMING AUTOMATIC SECURITY UPDATES, AND WILL SHUT DOWN AUTOMATICALLY AFTER HAVING FINISHED. PLEASE DON'T TURN THE COMPUTER OFF MANUALLY! (For a possible more GUIly way of printing the message, see a deferred Karmic spec: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FoundationsTeam/Specs/KarmicUpdatesOnShutdown ) -- Kernel upgrades may leave system unbootable when its hibernated during the upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191514 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 258129] [NEW] Xubuntu Hardy: mic select option doesn't work in xfce4-mixer (Ensoniq ES1371)
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xfce4-mixer Package version: xfce4-mixer 4.4.2-2ubuntu2 Description: Ensoniq ES1371 is a sound card with a single microphone input. Both alsamixer and xfce4-mixer show a setting named mic select (with options for TWO mics, mic1 and mic2), but the setting can actually be changed only via alsamixer - or at least the setting has any effect only via alsamixer. This is bad, as mic1 is the only option with which the mic works, and for some reason the mic setting sometimes changes on its own. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start alsamixer from the command line, and change the mic select setting. Observe the microphone working/not working when you change the setting. 2. Quit the alsamixer and start the xfce4-mixer. Play with the mic select setting and obserse it having no effect. ** Affects: xfce4-mixer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Xubuntu Hardy: mic select option doesn't work in xfce4-mixer (Ensoniq ES1371) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/258129 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 185469] Re: high cpu load because of JavaScript
Most likely the free nv is faster as you can use EXA AccellMethod ... give it a try. Sorry, but as the nv driver man page states, EXA is only supported for G80 (Geforce 8xxx) and higher - with my card (Geforce 2), the driver just ignores the option: (WW) NV(0): Option AccelMethod is not used Besides, I remind that everything else than Firefox scrolling works well - and the 500%-1000% slowdown compared to Gutsy isn't that bad either on a faster machine, as scrolling was very snappy in Gutsy. But on a computer like low end Pentium III (a good target for Xubuntu) the difference begins to be really noticeable. I would also imagine that the initial page rendering speed is affected, too. So, for the sake of Xubuntu goals it would be nice to know whether the problem is specific to my two systems or is more general...

The result: about 15% improvement in the benchmark for FF3, but I get hugely improved (2X) results in Gtkperf text scrolling benchmark and everything else is definitely faster, too.

Sorry, no can do: My Xubuntu Hardy system had no problem with using Gutsy version of libcairo2 (didn't fix the Firefox problem either), but the Hardy version of Xserver wouldn't even start with the Gutsy version of libpixman (Well, I guess the Xorg guys were right when setting their dependencies...) If I've understood right, Cairo also uses pixman for software fallbacks, so in this case the problem could also be there...however, as the Nvidia proprietary driver (that supposedly doesn't use much software fallbacks) isn't any faster than nv with Firefox, and the Cairo-powered rendering of Xfce GTK+-user interface is not slower, I very severely doubt that.

Which cairo package version are you using? Are you using XAA or EXA accelmethod in X? Maybe attach your Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf Alexander: Ok, I checked my notes, and here's some pretty detailed and a bit corrected information (sorry for two posts, there are two attachments and I only use the web interface for Launchpad): The attachments are my current (testcase #2 and #3 below) Xorg.o.log and xorg.conf on Xubuntu HARDY, with Cairo version 1.6.0. The accelmethod in all cases is XAA, of course. *** #1 *** The abovementioned benchmark and Gtkperf results with FF 2.0.0.14 on GUTSY, with Pango disabled (to avoid https://launchpad.net/bugs/32561 ). The computer was a (now sold) 1.1Ghz Athlon with Nvidia Geforce 2 MX 400 and using the nv driver, with an unmodified xorg.conf - except for the custom modeline that I also use on my never computer below (removing it and using the standard modes doesn't help). The results: Javascript interpreter benchmark: not tested, I hunted for another bug back then. Scrolling benchmark w/ text: about 2.5 seconds Scrolling benchmark w/ divs: 2.5 seconds Scrolling benchmark w/ nothing: 2.5 seconds Gtkperf result with 100 test rounds: about 26 seconds. General feel when scrolling long pages with lots of text and pictures: very snappy. *** #2 *** The abovementioned benchmark and Gtkperf results with FF3 rc1 on HARDY, with Pango disabled (enabling it doesn't seem to have significant effect on FF3) and without any extensions. The computer is a 2.4Ghz P4 with Nvidia Geforce 2 MX 400, using the nv driver: Javascript interpreter benchmark: about 5 seconds Scrolling benchmark w/ text: about 14 seconds Scrolling benchmark w/ divs: about 7 seconds Scrolling benchmark w/ nothing: about 5 seconds Gtkperf result with 100 test rounds: about 19 seconds. General feel when scrolling long pages with lots of text and pictures: slightly jerky. *** #3 *** The abovementioned benchmark with FF 2.0.0.14 on HARDY, with Pango disabled and without any extensions. The computer is the same as in the previous test case, a 2.4Ghz P4 with Nvidia Geforce 2 MX 400, using the nv driver: Javascript interpreter benchmark: about 12 seconds Scrolling benchmark w/ text: about 12 seconds (16 seconds with Pango enabled) Scrolling benchmark w/ divs: about 6 seconds Scrolling benchmark w/ nothing: about 4 seconds General feel when scrolling long pages with lots of text and pictures: slightly jerky. *** #4 *** I also have less complete notes on making the benchmark with FF3 beta 5 on HARDY, without any extensions and Pango disabled. The computer was a (now also sold) 1.0Ghz Athlon with Nvidia Riva TNT2 64 with nv driver and an unmodified xorg.conf: Scrolling benchmark w/ text: 25 seconds General feel when scrolling long pages with lots of text and pictures: annoyingly jerky. *** Other notes: *** - All tests are made with Human-theme. Changing the theme to something simple, Mist for example, doesn't affect the results of FF2 or FF3 benchmarks - it, however, significantly lowers the time needed for Gtkperf test. - Gtkperf result (100 test rounds) with testcases #2 and #3 computer was about 16 seconds on GUTSY and is about 19 seconds on HARDY. The text scrolling part of the Gtkperf test only takes 1.33 seconds on HARDY, however, so the increase is not only because of that part (I don't know whether it is because of that part at all, because I only saved the total time of the test when I was still using GUTSY on this computer).

Still there in Feisty, probably - I'm not exactly sure if it's the same bug. I'm using the nv driver, and the picture gets garbled: colours don't change, but the horizontal width of the picture always lessens, ungracefully, so that you have a chaotic mix of colours and shapes on your screen, though you can sometimes make something out of it. A visit in a virtual terminal corrects the situation, as does switching the resolution back and forth - changing a media player etc. to full screen and back doesn't have any effect, however. Sidenote: there are no compositing windows managers in use in my computer. This problem only shows up occasionally, and only when starting a new video with Gxine or VLC.

[Bug 86786] Re: [Feisty h4]Choosing keyboard layout doesn't work on installation step 4
I can confirm this for Xubuntu herd 4, daily build for 25th february. However, in the installed system the keyboard layout is the one specified during installation (i.e. Finnish, in this case) and I can type characters specific to that layout - the file manager (Thunar) cannot recognize those specific characters in filenames, though. ** Attachment added: /var/log/installer/syslog from the installed system http://librarian.launchpad.net/6529600/syslog -- [Feisty h4]Choosing keyboard layout doesn't work on installation step 4 https://launchpad.net/bugs/86786 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 42612] Re: OpenOffice does not open the default document
I can confirm this for Xubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft and Xfce with latest updates. To be precise: if I launch any Openoffice instance from the Xfce menu, the default document doesn't get opened - however, equivalent desktop shortcuts work fine. Could therefore be a bug in how the Xfce system menu is handled, though couldn't find anything about this in Xfce bugtracker. So: which desktop environment are you people using? Anyway, I found a workaround at least for Xfce: in /usr/share/applications, if you remove the %U from the end of the exec line in each Openoffice desktop file (for example change ooffice -writer %U into ooffice -writer), the default documents get opened all right when you click the menu entry. As I mentioned, the desktop shortcuts with the equivalent exec lines work fine: if you drag the desktop files from the aforementioned folder on the desktop - or just create a desktop shortcut through the right- click menu - the %U-ending stays, but the default documents still get opened when the the program is started through the shortcut. -- OpenOffice does not open the default document https://launchpad.net/bugs/42612 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 40315] Re: Continuing HDD spin ups and downs without laptop-mode.
How can I find out which application is to blame? Probably the best application for this would be 'atop' from universe, but to monitor disk activity, it requires the kernel patch 'cnt' to be installed - see man pages of atop. At least my Edgy kernel (2.6.17-10 generic) doesn't have that patch by default. Sounds useful, thought. Anyway, if someone manages to install the patch by him/herself, the command for monitoring disk activity would be 'atop -d'. -- Continuing HDD spin ups and downs without laptop-mode. https://launchpad.net/bugs/40315 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 35611] Re: Installer detects Finnish keyboard instead of Swedish
I can confirm this bug in reverse for the Xubuntu Edgy beta alternate install CD. Wanted to get Finnish layout, got Swedish, but no chance to choose. But: the Finnish and the Swedish keyboards have exactly the same layout (see the link below, the first chapter in introduction) - what is the reason for having two separate layouts for them in the installer? http://209.85.135.104/search?q=cache:48jOF4BTqmQJ:www.kotoistus.fi/avoimet/fi_kbspec_en_luonnos06.pdf+keyboard+layout+finnish+swedishhl=figl=fict=clnkcd=4 -- Installer detects Finnish keyboard instead of Swedish https://launchpad.net/bugs/35611 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 70496] Re: installation on reiserfs fails
Are you using the desktop-cd or the alternate install cd? And what do you mean with not possible to install? Does the installer hang, or does it finish the installation, but the installed system won't boot? Just asking, because with Edgy beta, when I installed the system on reiserfs partition, Gparted would not mark the partition as bootable, and when I booted, I just got a BIOS error message saying could not find any active partition. Corrected the problem by using alternate install CD, running recovery mode and using cfdisk to set the boot flag on the system partition (just run cfdisk /dev/yourharddrive). A couple of highly similar bugs in Gparted were closed since then, so I didn't actually test it again... -- installation on reiserfs fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/70496 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 63796] Re: X doesn't launch with voodoo 5 5500
I'm having very similar problem with Xubuntu 6.10 beta desktop-CD and Voodoo3 2000 agp - Xserver tries to start, but only gives a black screen with the standard X-shaped cursor in the middle of the screen. The cursor cannot be moved, and the system is totally unresponsive, requiring reboot. No chance of actually installing the system and getting logs right now, but see the following upstream bug report pertaining to the tdfx driver version used also in Edgy beta: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7967 -- X doesn't launch with voodoo 5 5500 https://launchpad.net/bugs/63796 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
