[Bug 293485] Re: no working driver, problem with hal

2011-06-29 Thread Mihnea-Costin Grigore
@Timo: The bug was filed against a Ubuntu package, which is actually still 
alive and well, under active development:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-penmount/1:1.4.99+git20101202.6658e9ad-0ubuntu2

While Penmount does supply separate linux drivers, this bug had nothing
to do with those and everything to do with the Ubuntu package.

So what's with the "invalid" status, it should be left at "fix
committed" if that solved the issue, but the bug was very much VALID
when opened.

[Bug 476924] Re: kdm invokes ksplash for no reason

2009-12-17 Thread Mihnea-Costin Grigore
Can someone please explain why that ksplash invocation exists in the
first place? I find it odd that nobody says anything... It must have
appeared useful to whoever made the modification... In any case,
removing it has no ill effects on the 5 computers I tried -- and yes, it
was needed on all of those because I do not use the default kdm theme,
and ksplash loading before was extremely annoying. If resources are
being devoted to the "flicker-free boot experience" with the likes of
Plymouth, this trivial fix should be right up there!

[Bug 484408] Re: kdm sometimes tries to login without asking for credentials and then stops at the hard disk icon

2009-12-17 Thread Mihnea-Costin Grigore
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 476924 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/476924

I don't think this bug is really a duplicate, it's just more obvious
because of bug 476924. This bug implies that after ksplash starts, kdm
never actually gets to show a login box (therefore, apparently kdm
crashes on the way). If bug 476924 would be solved, this bug would still
happen, but people would see a blankc screen instead of ksplash...

P.S.: @Hans -- the flickering is really noticeable if the chosen kdm
theme is different from the default ksplash theme, otherwise it's hard
to spot.

[Bug 481389] [NEW] KDM - "Kubuntu needs boot splash" unnecessary in /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup

2009-11-12 Thread Mihnea-Costin Grigore
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase-workspace

Using: Kubuntu, 9.10, Karmic

The file /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup contains a line claiming that "Kubuntu
needs boot splash starting..." followed by an invocation of ksplashx.
This produces a flicker of ksplash right before KDM starts, and gives
the appearance of a glitch. Commenting out the lines removes the flicker
and afterwards KDM and KDE4 proceed loading witho no issues (tested on 3
different setups), therefore whatever purpose the line served seems no
longer relevant.

Searching the web for this modification yielded no information
whatsoever as to why it was added... IMHO it should be removed in
subsequent versions of kdebase-workspace.

** Affects: kdebase-workspace (Ubuntu)
 Importance: Undecided
 Status: New

[Bug 370932] Re: maradns init script silently fails during the boot, but works when run manually

2009-07-11 Thread Mihnea-Costin Grigore
I can confirm this bug happening on Kubuntu 9.04... The logs do not show
any strange messages, and in my case they are identical between the
"failed" initial start and the subsequent start at the command line. I
think the issue is related to intermittent connections -- probably
wireless which is started later in the boot, possibly even after login
if useing Networkmanager. Can the previous posters confirm they have
such a setup? It is true in my case... Any other ideas and debugging
info would be welcome.

[Bug 353280] Re: Screen flickers with Nvidia drivers

2009-06-29 Thread Mihnea-Costin Grigore
I can confirm this bug with versions <= 180.44 and a GTX 260 card.

The flicker is resolved by using the 185.18.14 driver posted in the PPA
above and there are no observable downsides to that version.

[Bug 293485] Re: no working driver, problem with hal

2009-01-28 Thread Mihnea-Costin Grigore
I have the same problem with a Gigabyte M912M netbook. The touchscreen is a 
Penmount version and it is detected by X.Org and working perfectly, however it 
lacks calibration. There seems to be no calibration tool or other means of 
configuration available. The manufacturer provides a (new, closed-source) 
driver but I haven't used it due to the invasive changes it requires:
http://www.penmount.com.tw/down_2_1.php

Since the device works well as it is, it should be relatively easy to
add calibration tools for it, right?

Attached 'lsusb -n' output for the device, will also add 'lspci -vvnn'
later.
