[Bug 898696] [NEW] lxinput mouse sensitivity setting not changed

2011-12-01 Thread Mike Goldberg
Public bug reported:

My mouse motion sensitivity  is set to the max. If I use lxinput to
change the sensitivity and click on OK, the settings are not changed. If
I open up lxinput again, I can see that mouse sensitivity is still at
maximum. This may be related to Bug #563530 won't save config if
missing lxde folder. I can report that  it will not save on my system
even if there is a ~/.config/lxde folder.

Release:11.10

2. lxinput:
  Installed: 0.3.1-1

[Bug 728745] Re: [nvidia, 7300, 7400] display freeze when using unity desktop

2011-06-20 Thread Mike Goldberg
1. I just tried the  nvidia-current drivers from repository. They don't
work for me, either. To install the 275* drivers you have to get rid of
the Ubuntu installed nvidia-current package. I used dpkg -P nvidia-
current... probably not a good idea.

2. Sorry to report that I am wrong, this isn't really a fix. After all
this messing around, all that happens now is Ubuntu silently defaults to
unity-2d, which I mistook for regular (3d) unity. While this is an
improvement over locking up the system, I don't call this a good fix.

Current unity_support_test -p results:

OpenGL vendor string:   Mesa Project
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer
OpenGL version string:  2.1 Mesa 7.10.2

2011-06-19 Thread Mike Goldberg
I found a fix, at least for my system, in the Debian User Forums:

http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=7t=65539 Lost 3D after
updating nvidia-glx, linux and X.

Someone advised installing/updating the following packages:

libegl1-mesa_7.10.2-3_i386.deb 
libglu1-mesa_7.10.2-3_i386.deb
libegl1-mesa-drivers_7.10.2-3_i386.deb 
xserver-xephyr_1.10.2-1_i386.deb
libgl1-mesa-dri_7.10.2-3_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-core_1.10.2-1_i386.deb
libgl1-mesa-glx_7.10.2-3_i386.deb

I (re)installed the Ubuntu amd64 equivalents:

libegl1-mesa
libglu1-mesa
libegl1-mesa-driver
xserver-xephyr
libgl1-mesa-dri
xserver-xorg-core
libgl1-mesa-glx

Two of these packages, libegl1-mesa and libegl1-mesa-driver, WERE NOT
installed on my system after the upgrade to natty. I don't know why they
weren't installed during the upgrade, or if they were there before the
upgrade. They seem to be needed.

After banging in these packages, the Unity Desktop Environment works as
well as can be expected. (Snarky comments removed.) Of course, I am
running the nVidia  275.09.07 drivers instead of the ones in the Ubuntu
repository...

A great Father's Day present for me! Happy Father's Day to all the dads
out there.

[Bug 728745] Re: [nvidia, 7300, 7400] display freeze when using unity desktop

2011-05-26 Thread Mike Goldberg
Timmie from #83: sorry my advice from #73 trashed your video. Unity
works OK on my system (x86_64; nVidia 7300 LE) with the Nouveau drivers,
but some programs such as Extreme Tux Racer and 0 AD do not work well at
all. (Tux racer gets only 2-3 fps and the mouse hesitates constantly in
0 AD, making it unusable. Gamers beware!)  Sites that use flash, Like
Hulu, have some strange quirks as well.

I've been playing with nVidia driver installations. I installed the
xorg-edgers fresh X crack  PPA (ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa) from
http://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa (RTFM  be careful!),
which installed the nvidia-graphics-drivers package (version is
275.09-0ubuntu1~edgers~natty.)  These drivers do not work with Unity on
my system, either.

nVidia knows about this problem (see:
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=162819). At this point
in time, it might be better for us to send error reports directly to
nVidia instead of here. Read
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=46678 for a HOWTO on
generating what nVidia wants in an error report.

Strangely, after installing the nVidia 275.09 drivers things seem
somewhat better, even though neither Unity nor Ubuntu classic (with
effects) work.  Even though Additional Drivers (jockey-gtk) says
nvidia-current is installed but not enabled, more things seem to work.
Go figure. The Ubuntu classic with no effects works well. Extreme Tux
Racer and 0 AD are both useable.

[Bug 728745] Re: [nvidia, 7300, 7400] display freeze when using unity desktop

2011-05-05 Thread Mike Goldberg
John,

Have you tried the open source Nouveau drivers? They have been (mostly)
working for me with Ubuntu 11.04 amd64 desktop with a nVidia Corporation
G72 [GeForce 7300 LE] (rev a1). unity is working, so effects are
working.

I had difficulty installing the Nouveau drivers, because the gui
Additional Drivers program only listed nVidia drivers and merely
installing the Nouveau drivers from synaptic or apt-get does not enable
them.

Here's what worked for me, mostly from
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1423210:

1. Install libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental. (You need this.)


I also added ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates to my repositories and updated my 
system. I'm not sure that this is necessary.

Open the terminal and type the following commands:
Code:

sudo update-alternatives --config gl_conf

(and select the alternative provided by mesa)

(Here's what I see on my machine:

mikey@hatshepsut:~$ sudo update-alternatives --config gl_conf
[sudo] password for mikey: 
There are 3 choices for the alternative gl_conf (providing 
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/GL.conf).

  SelectionPathPriority   Status

  0/usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf   9700  auto mode
* 1/usr/lib/mesa/ld.so.conf 500   manual mode
  2/usr/lib/nvidia-173/ld.so.conf   9620  manual mode
  3/usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf   9700  manual mode

Press enter to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number: )

Code:

sudo ldconfig
sudo update-initramfs -u
sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf_old

and restart your computer.


After running update-alternatives -- config gl_conf, the open source drivers 
now appear in Additonal Drivers. they are listed as  Experimental 3D support 
for nVidia Cards.

[Bug 557421] Re: module-udev-detect races with module-default-device-restore

2010-11-23 Thread Mike Goldberg
Sorry for your problem.

In my case, removing the Timidity daemon solved the problem. (Silly of
me to install it.) I have on board sound hardware. lspci found the
hardware, ALSA found the hardware, but Pulseaudio (often) insisted that
I had no sound card... until I purged the timidity daemon. After that,
no problems. (Knocking wood...)

While I had this problem, I could always get audio by plugging in one of
those inexpensive Chinese usb audio devices, both the cheap Tenx TP6911
devices or the more expensive C-Media guys. I would just plug them in
after my computer finished  booting.

Before you try a downrev to 9.04, try eliminating all the pulseaudio
from your system, and see what happens. If that doesn't work, I wouldn't
install 9.04, I'd install Debian squeeze.

Just my 2 cents.

2010-06-08 Thread Mike Goldberg
Attached is a backtrace, more or less generated by the instructions at
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash.

As gdb debugging nautilus ignored my control + c commands, I scraped the
information out of ddd. (Fortunately, gdb running in ddd did respond to
control + c.)

I asked Google for a better way, but I had no joy with anything I found,
even from Stack Overflow. I know that there is a way to interrupt or
control gdb while it is running besides control + c, but I am clueless
as to how to do so. Can anyone tell me how, besides RTFM?  It would be
nice to add this information to the instructions at
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash. As a (very inactive)
member of the Ubuntu BugSquad, I volunteer  myself to do the editing.

Binary package hint: nautilus

1. Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

64-bit version

2. nautilus 1:2.30.1-0ubuntu1

3. When I change to a directory containing the Haiku OS source code, I
expect the directory to be displayed.

4. Instead, nautilus freezes up and grays out. In addition, incoming
network activity shoots up to ~300 KiB/s until the window is killed.

You can get the offending directory, the Haiku OS source code by
running:

[Bug 576386] [NEW] gnome-screenshot --interactive does not display selection

2010-05-06 Thread Mike Goldberg
Public bug reported:

package:  gnome-utils

1. Ubuntu release:
Description:Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Release:10.04

amd64 version
using NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 173)

2. package version:

3. What I expected:
When invoking sceenshot from the menu (or invoking gnome-screenshot 
--interactive in a terminal) and selecting an area to grab, I expect to see a 
visible box around my selection. This was the behavior in karmic, and it is 
helpful. 

4. What happened instead:
The selected area is not shown surrounded by a visible box. The area is 
captured correctly, but you have to guess a bit about what area you are 
capturing without the feedback of a visible box.

[Bug 449760] Re: ubuntuone syncdaemon starts every second and causes high CPU load

2010-02-10 Thread Mike Goldberg
I had the same problem on my fully up-to-date 9.10 amd64 machine.

I tried /dev/random's solution of chown -R user:user Ubuntu\ One with no
success.

 Vratislav Podzimek's method seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks.

I'm sorry that I didn't snag the logfiles before running rm -R `find ~/
-name *ubuntuone* -print`. There were a pile of errors in the log
syncdaemon-exception.log, including a Python division by zero error.

Are we sure this bug is invalid?

[Bug 345781] Re: videos on totem player (no matter wich format) flicker, on vlc player too, though I've installed all the codecs I would need

2009-08-21 Thread Mike Goldberg
I think you have a problem with a proprietary driver. Sorry. The
manufacturer needs to either release the source code or fix the driver
software.

(A problem like this started GNU.)

Read this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fglrx

AMD/ATI Linux support has been heavily criticized over the last number
of years. From stability and performance issues as well as lack of
options, AMD/ATI proprietary drivers have not been received well.

And this about open source ATI drivers:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_hardware_and_FOSS#ATI.2FAMD

You might want to explore if an open source driver for your video
hardware is available.

I can confirm this bug in jaunty amd64. My problem is I don't know what
program or script the Archive mounter selection is supposed to run.
Sadly, I am also unable to figure this out.

OK, Archive Manager invokes /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-archive.

This is installed on my machine (jaunty amd64) but the menu item does
not work.

I can confirm this in jaunty amd64. Wow!

FYI, if Firefox asks you to install a missing plug in, the Helix DNA
Plugin: RealPlayer G2 Plug-In Compatable plays the French audio and
does not crash Firefox.

[Bug 407868] [NEW] Python does not work in Golly on Intrepid amd64

2009-08-01 Thread Mike Goldberg
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: golly

Source package: golly 1.4-1

Release: Ubuntu 9.04 (amd64)

Version used:
golly:
  Installed: 1.4-1
  Candidate: 1.4-1
  Version table:
 *** 1.4-1 0
500 http://mirror.anl.gov jaunty/universe Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

What I expected to happen:
When I selected a python script to run (these scripts are supplied with the 
golly package; they are not my code) I was expecting them to do something.

What happened instead:
A window with the title Golly Warning popped up. The window's contents are: 
Python library does not have this symbol:
Py_InitModule4

When I click the OK button, the popup window goes away, to be replaced with 
another window, also with the title Golly Warning. This window says:
Oh dear, the Python library is not loaded!
Click the OK button makes this window go away.

A whole lot of Python is installed on my machine, but not everything Python.
Is it possible there is a missing dependency?
