[Bug 946311]
I think I've hit basically the same problem Oleksij is reporting (blank eDP) when using the ASUS UX31E with an external HDMI monitor and leaving it plugged in while booting (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=844985). Aside from the fact Oleksij uses VGA and I use HDMI, it otherwise seems to be the same issue. I ended up finding this bug report because one of the patches attached to this bug while searching for the "bad panel power sequencing delays, disabling panel" error message I found in dmesg. I'm also still seeing the problem Bryce described way back in the original bug report: if I use Fn+F8 to disable the internal LCD, it doesn't come back unless I do a mode change on the internal monitor. That seems to be a very different problem though, as in that case eDP1 still shows up in the xrandr output. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946311 Title: only external screen is working with asus zenbook ux31e [eDP1] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/946311/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 551790] Re: lucid update-grub wrong root=UUID=
After booting into the system manually from the GRUB prompt, setting "GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true" in /etc/defaults/grub and rerunning update-grub was enough to get the system booting again on its own. It turned out the "root" partition OS prober was choosing wasn't an old one at all, but the "/usr" partition for the current installation (I'd missed that initially, because I set up this system a couple of years ago and had forgotten how the partitions were mapped). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551790 Title: lucid update-grub wrong root=UUID= -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 551790] Re: lucid update-grub wrong root=UUID=
I suspect this bug (or one very like it) is what just bit me on the upgrade from Kubuntu 10.10 64-bit to 11.04. It may not be exactly the same though, since in my case the upgrade didn't get confused by multiple valid installs - it just plain picked the wrong drive. Post-install, the reboot brought up a grub prompt with an "ls /" that listed the contents of an old hard drive I had in the machine with assorted remnants of a previous install's "/usr" directory. For some reason, the upgrade process had decided to nominate /dev/sdc1 as the root of the machine, even though that directory contained no /boot and no /etc. The *actual* root directory (on /dev/sda1) was ignored. I'm currently still tinkering to get back to a bootable system - I suspect missed some references to the incorrect root partition in my first attempt. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551790 Title: lucid update-grub wrong root=UUID= -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 688986] Re: --invisible/--autostart/--autoclose do not appear to be working
Ah, I didn't even notice that - you're right, it is almost certainly the incorrect profile name that is causing the problem (I was passing in "-- medium" instead of "Medium").

[Bug 688986] Re: --invisible/--autostart/--autoclose do not appear to be working
Those are the commands I was trying that didn't work though - soundkonverter would instead quit almost immediately without actually doing anything. That's why I reverted to the semi-automated approach of clicking manually through the GUI buttons - if I didn't, the conversion never even started (I was using 'ps' as a quick hack to check when the process was terminating). Unfortunately, I'm away from the machine where this was happening for the next couple of weeks - I'll have a chance to dig into again early in the new year. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/688986 Title: --invisible/--autostart/--autoclose do not appear to be working -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 688986] Re: --invisible/--autostart/--autoclose do not appear to be working
Ah, true, I didn't explain that very well. The way I manage my music is to keep the master copies as FLAC audio (so I should never need to rip the CDs again, even as the popular lossy formats change), and then transcode to the lossy format du jour for use on my current mobile device (at present, this means MP3). Previously, after ripping new CDs, I would go find the new FLAC files, add them manually to SoundKonverter and generate the MP3 versions. This let me keep the files in separate directories, with Amarok set to only look at the FLAC files, while making it easy for me to grab the smaller lossy files and drop them onto my phone. This was actually fairly tedious (since I tend to go through phases of not buying music at all, and then buying a whole lot at once), so I decided to script the transcoding process in Python (walk the directories, figure out which MP3 files were missing, then use the SoundKonverter command line interface to generate them). This all worked like a charm *except* that I couldn't get any of the three options listed in the issue title to behave themselves. The relevant Python subprocess command I was using to actually invoke SoundKonverter is as follows ('--autoclose' is deliberately commented out, since it didn't work): command = ['soundkonverter', '--autostart',# '--autoclose', '--format', 'mp3', '--profile', '--medium', '--output', dest_dir] print(command) command.extend(song.filepath for song in album_to_convert.songs) subprocess.call(command) The paths in dest_dir and the song.filepath attributes were all absolute paths. You can see the whole thing here, with the actual invocation of SoundKonverter being right at the end (it isn't pretty though - this is the result of one late night hacking session and is tailored specifically to a bunch of quirks in my own music collection): http://code.google.com/p/ytterbium/source/browse/__main__.py -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/688986 Title: --invisible/--autostart/--autoclose do not appear to be working -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 688986] Re: --invisible/--autostart/--autoclose do not appear to be working
The actual command was doing the right thing, so the other arguments were definitely ok (and *thank you* for the tool - even the semi- automated setup I was able to get working was orders of magnitude better than manually finding and selecting the new files that needed converting). I didn't really spend much time experimenting with just "--autostart" on its own, so it is possible there was something else wrong with the command line I passed in that time (although, the operation did work - I just needed to press OK and Start to get it going). Good to know I wasn't imagining the misbehaviour in the --autoclose/--invisible case, though :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/688986 Title: --invisible/--autostart/--autoclose do not appear to be working -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 688986] [NEW] --invisible/--autostart/--autoclose do not appear to be working
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: soundkonverter I am attempting to invoke soundkonverter from a Python script, but am not having any luck with the command line options for running without someone sitting at the computer to operate the GUI. If I specify just "--autostart", the program behaves the same as if I had omitted the argument (i.e. GUI opens, waiting for me to press "OK" on the "File Add" dialog). However, if I specify both "--autostart" and "--autoclose", or else specify "--invisible", then the application closes almost immediately without actually doing any file conversions. All I need to do in the GUI is click "OK" and then "Start" (and then the close button at the end) to get the result I want, so I know the rest of the command line arguments are doing the right thing. It is only these three that are misbehaving for me.

[Bug 264177] Re: The Hardware Device Manager is too limited
I just ran across a similar problem (in Kubuntu 9.10 in my case, where I can't find a graphical hardware manager *at all*) and found a handy forum post regarding the "sudo lshw -html > hwdetails.html" workaround (http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=3102377.0). However, it would be nice to have something at least comparable to the windows hardware manager here, and preferably even better as the original poster suggests - a system info GUI that provided a collapsible tree view containing all the details reported by lshw, with an optional internet lookup component that retrieves additional details. -- The Hardware Device Manager is too limited https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264177 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
