[Bug 109943]

2014-06-03 Thread Kevin Hunter

As of v24.5, running on Ubuntu 13.10 (64bit) with Openbox, I no longer
see gettimeofday calls in the strace output.  TB is still polling like
mad, but is at least efficiency polling.  From an strace output like
above, I now see:

  (11.6%) futex
  (27.4%) poll
  ( 4.0%) read
  (45.3%) recvfrom
  (11.7%) writev

And no gettimeofday.  So, from the reporter, who has unfortunately
changed the desktop he uses (see comments 16, 17, and 18), I no longer
see this.  Meanwhile, we still need input from someone running Gnome and
Unity, I think.

[Bug 1217687] [NEW] [mir] [multimonitor] mouse choppy, typing text in terminal slow

2013-08-27 Thread Kevin Hunter

Public bug reported:

Starting from a single laptop monitor, I plugged in external VGA
monitor. The monitor was autodetected and turned on (nice!). I moved
the external monitor to the left of the laptop monitor in Settings -
Display, and the, after about 3 minutes of moving windows around between
monitors, the mouse becomes extremely choppy and typing text into gnome-
terminal has a 3+ second lag between typed character and showing at the
prompt.

Setup and exact steps to recreate:

0. 1280x800 resolution laptop display with Intel-only graphics (Core i5
M520 @2.4), w/ Wacom capabilities.

1. Using Saucy 64bit iso daily from 27-Aug-2013 08:14, netbooted via a
PXE and NFSROOT, with toram boot option.

2. Installed Mir per instructions at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mir/MultiMonitorTesting . Recreated here in
case the linked text changes:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mir-team/system-compositor-testing
$ sudo apt-get update
$ cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/50-pin-mir.pref
Package: *
Pin: origin private-ppa.launchpad.net
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mir-team-system-compositor-testing
Pin-Priority: 1002
^D

$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y
# note that because this is RAM only PXE boot instance, I did *not* reboot.
$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 3.11.0-4-generic #9-Ubuntu SMP Mon Aug 26 15:21:06 UTC 2013
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

# was necessary to execute
$ sudo apt-get install unity-system-compositor

$ sudo lightdm restart
# this never restarted

# Go to TTY (C-A-F1)
$ sudo service lightdm stop# wait
$ ps waux | grep lightdm # ensure it's not there
$ sudo service lightdm start # this works, and I'm presented with Mir.
$ ps waux | grep unity # shows unity-system-compositor

3. At the Unity shell, open Settings-Display # see only 13 Display.
Also open up terminal (C-A-t)

4. Plug in VGA cord to external monitor
# external monitor instantly engages, with correct 1280x1024 resolution.
(Way to go!)

5. Move external monitor to left side of laptop display in the
Settings-Display window. Click Apply.

6. Basically diddle around, then note the mouse movement become choppy
and the aforementioned delay in text displaying in the terminal.

[Bug 670762] Re: Docky crashes when DBus connection refused [ECONNREFUSED]

2013-03-14 Thread Kevin Hunter

Heh, thanks for the suggestion on this bug, but I've long since stopped
using Docky, for this and other behavior.

I suggest, that unless someone else cares about this bug, we do not
continue conversation here (as it has been closed for some time now).

Cheers.

[Bug 409774] Re: Regression in wireless, Detects the thing is there, but will NOT list networks.

2012-10-17 Thread Kevin Hunter

Nope.  Haven't seen this in a few versions of Ubuntu.  I ran 10.04 and
10.10 before skipping to 12.04.  All seem to have squashed this bug.

Darnit, Launchpad Janitor.  This is *still* an issue, as mentioned ...

2012-08-28 Thread Kevin Hunter

Given that I reported this about 3 years ago, I suppose it's safe to
assume that this is just plain not a priority.  Should I stop touching
this bug?

[Bug 429844] Re: audio level between 0 and 20% not output

2012-08-28 Thread Kevin Hunter

Quantal test requested:
 - Sigh.  Apologies that I missed the Quantal test request.  I'll have to get 
back on that
  one.

Upstream Kernel:
 - The most recent at the time, but I did not write it down.  Judging by the 
dates at
   http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/, that would be 
3.4-rc7-precise.

Upgrading Also:
 - I did not upgrade Alsa, as at the time I had no time.  Clearly I forgot 
since then.
  (However, my question of Do you need more information wasn't answered, so I
  assumed what I had was fine.)  Again, I'll have to get back.

Testing the current mainline:
 - Will have to get back.  (I'm running Precise, on my only available machine, 
a laptop.)

2012-08-28 Thread Kevin Hunter

To respond to my own comment/question of this is just plain not a
priority, it's _not_ a priority for me.  I can deal with a little
graphical/low-volume glitch, and I think most might just accept this is
a quirk of Ubuntu.  I reported this initially as yet another paper
cut style bug, although I can't remember if the Paper Cut program had
been created at that point.

[Bug 429844] Re: audio level between 0 and 20% not output

2012-06-28 Thread Kevin Hunter

Preliminary Checks:
  The speakers are builtin to this laptop, and there is audible output when I 
play any sound file.  (Issue is still that below 20% = no sound out of 
speakers).

 1. Speakers *are* plugged in, switched on.
 2. Speakers are *not* muted.  (I hear sound.)

Advanced troubleshooting 1 (mixers at the ALSA level): Using Alsamixer
via the terminal.

 1. Choosing the 'Master' volume bar, and using the up/down arrows,
the volume correctly increases/decreases in decibel output.
 2. The percentage changes in small increments (between 1 and 5).
However, it will not settle on a value between 0 and 16.

To elaborate, if in another shell, I use amixer to set the volume to 0%, 
alsamixer shows the Master volume bar as 0 and no sound comes from the speakrs. 
 If I use amixer to set the volume to 1%, alsamixer shows the Master volume as 
16, and there is an appropriate jump in speaker decibel output, which I'd 
estimate as 16% of the maximum decibel output:

 $ amixer set Master,0 0% --quiet  # -- Alsamixer: Master = 0
 $ amixer set Master,0 1% --quiet  # -- Alsamixer: Master = 16

Do you need more information?
