[Bug 269904] Re: Screen refresh problems with nvidia on intrepid
This bug has not disappeared completely, however the reproducibility factor has gone down to 10%. My setup is a Dell M1330 GF 9400M GS. Disabling loose bindings did more or less the same result for me. Now i'm running with: compiz.real --ignore-desktop-hints --replace --loose- binding core ccp However, if I scroll for past commands (arrow-up) in gnome-terminal the refresh bug shows by failing to update the text field when vsync is enabled. Can someone confirm this? Otherwise this fix has worked flawlessly.

[Bug 207473] Re: Screen brightness double level changes
I have noticed something interesting.. When a menu is open (Applications,Places or Systems), and Fn+up/Fn+down keys are pressed, the screen brightness is changed correctly without any double/quadruple steps, although, now there are only 5 brightness levels, whereas my LCD screen supports 8 levels . Can somebody confirm this? I can confirm that killing the gnome-power-manager process fixes the multiple brightness level hopping, however there are only 5 brightness levels. Now, the amount of brightness hops in my case have varied from 2 to 4 steps for a single Fn+Up/Down press. Which leaves me with the conclusion that the acpi gnome-power-manager brightness controls are overlapping. For now im sticking to a gnome-panel brightness applet, the blacklist video hack creates a lot of new problems here.

[Bug 204996] Re: Linux kernel 2.6.24-12 lockup
Sorry for posting so many times in a row. But this time I have solved the freezes, in my case at least. What I did was to create a redistributable bootable backup dvd with remastersys in case I had to reinstall. Since I gutted the Hardy installation from trying to fix the bug I used the backup for the first time. Only later I realized there were no lockups. It has been stable for 1½ days now. I'll report further some week from now. Present dmesg attached. Still 2.6.24-19-generic. ** Attachment added: dmesg.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15569446/dmesg.log -- Linux kernel 2.6.24-12 lockup https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204996 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 204996] Re: Linux kernel 2.6.24-12 lockup
Hi! Can you help me testing out this (ugly fix?). Out of pure curiosity I did: echo 1 /proc/sys/vm/block_dump but while trying to 'trace' the bug with dmesg (assuming it's I/O related) I couldn't find anything. WHY? Because my Ubuntu Hardy stopped freezing! My theory is that this command works like a 'keep-alive', thus the drive has no room to 'time-out'. Since there is no way to explain this accurately, can somebody try this and confirm? When you're done revert with: echo 0 /proc/sys/vm/block_dump. Do dmesg to check the output.

[Bug 239021] Re: Hardy Freeze/Lockup with kernel 2.6.24-16-generic up to 2.6.24-19-generic
Under the assumption that this is related to harddrive (sata) I've tried changing fstab to not use the realtime function, but with no avail. The 2.6.25-7/8 kernels did not contribute to any improvement either. However there's a major clue (ugly fix), echo 1 /proc/sys/vm/block_dump this triggers repetitive debug writes to disk, thus works like a keep-alive. The funny thing is that the freezes cease when the block_dump is enabled. If the type of freeze that you experience is akin of mine then this should work. But this is nothing I would recommend. Also, I don't have tested this long enough to be sure, but 1h+ without freeze is sure a great improvement in my case. -- Hardy Freeze/Lockup with kernel 2.6.24-16-generic up to 2.6.24-19-generic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239021 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 239021] Re: Hardy Freeze/Lockup with kernel 2.6.24-16-generic up to 2.6.24-19-generic
I can confirm that the 2.6.24-16-generic (hardy) Linux kernel running under Gutsy had no such issues. However, appeared only when I reinstalled with Hardy. Just like DJ Dallas, I cannot reproduce the bug at will, nor can I trace it in any way. The only difference is that the heavy freeze doesn't actually crash the computer. If I have music on while the system freezes, the sound loops 5-6 times, then the CPU calms down and works normally without any need to restart. This occurs about 2-3times/h without pattern, except the 100% CPU and complete unresponsiveness of keyboard/touchpad. -- Hardy Freeze/Lockup with kernel 2.6.24-16-generic up to 2.6.24-19-generic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239021 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
