[Bug 259385] Re: Intrepid Compiz hangs on login for i830MG, i845, and i945GM video cards

2008-11-08 Thread Pajari Räsänen
@manzur:

What we see in your screenshot is precisely what SHOULD happen, since
the fix (or "fix") just prevents using the visual effects. Disabling
Compiz visual effects enables you to use the desktop without Compiz,
that's all. This has already been explained above. Quoting Martin Pitt:

"I hope that we'll get an actual fixed driver into intrepid-updates
soon. Until then you need to live without desktop effects, or go back to
8.04 LTS."

So I think we shall have to be patient and try to live without the eye
candy for a while if we want to stick with Intrepid. That is, until the
actual driver bug gets fixed. In my opinion, it's worthwhile to stick
with it.

@Baptiste,

I would still like to confirm that my output for "python ods-server-
test.py opp /tmp" with your obex-data-server version is an exact match
of xens's above.

It works, and it is nice to hear that it works for others, too!

Merci monsieur Baptiste Mille-Mathias!

I installed the obex-data-server version from your PPA and now I am able
to (a) send files from my mobile phone to my computer and (b) browse the
directories on my phone with Nautilus and copy-paste them to the local
directory on my PC.

Thanks again!

[Bug 283064] Re: intrepid: bluetooth can not receive files

2008-11-06 Thread Pajari Räsänen
I have Intrepid on two machines, Acer TM 2354 laptop and Compaq Evo D
510 SFF desktop, upgraded from Hardy on both. Yesterday I purchased a
Celly BK3 USB bt dongle. Could not make it work on either machine
(except on the Win XP installation of the desktop): I could neither send
files from the PC to the mobile phone (Nokia 6151) nor receive or browse
files, nor pair these devices.

Then I tried Hardy LiveCD on the laptop and everything worked smoothly
out of the box, no problem at all in pairing and in sending files from
PC to phone. Then I decided to try the dongle with Intrepid on the
desktop machine again, and suddenly the file transfer from PC to phone
succeeded: I sent a whole directory of mp3's to the Nokia. I had changed
nothing and made no update. I tried it again, but this time to no avail.
So it seems that with some luck, the transfer may intermittently succeed
also in Intrepid...

Browsing the files on the phone via bt has not succeeded in the same
mysterious manner, though. I keep getting an error message: "Could not
display "obex://[00:1B:EE:5D:04:2A]/". Error: Connection to the device
lost. Please select another viewer and try again." This is interesting
from my non-technical end-user perspective, because I recall the "Please
select another viewer" message from the time a recent Nautilus bug in
Hardy prevented from browsing Samba shares.

I don't know if this is of any help or just redundant babble.

2008-11-02 Thread Pajari Räsänen
@manzur: Myself, I'm just another non-technical end user, but I'm sure
the developers are doing their best to fix this driver-related problem.
In the meanwhile, you might want to remove visual effects from your
setup, with the following command:

sudo apt-get remove compiz compiz-core

In order to do this, you might e.g. want to choose "Failsafe terminal"
from the login options.

@glennDecker: Don't blame yourself, I don't think it's you who has
"broken your desktop". You might try removing compiz and compiz-core,
too.

Another way to get into a terminal in order to pass the command is to
boot into "Recovery mode" from the Grub bootloader screen. If you don't
see the screen by default, you should hit "Esc" before the Ubuntu
Usplash screen appears. Having chosen "Recovery mode", you should choose
the root terminal option when the options screen comes up. After passing
the above command, you can type "reboot".

This time, sorry for my impatience! Probably the local servers (in
Finland) did not have the proposed fix available until a moment ago. Now
I have Compiz 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4.1 and the behaviour is just as Jerry
described three hours ago.

Thanks!

I still hope the next fix makes it possible to enable the effects,
because I really appreciate true terminal transparency (it comes handy
in some situations for us "CLI lovers").

Sorry for my ignorance, but I just don't understand why I have

2008-10-31 Thread Pajari Räsänen
Installing Compiz again as well as the other proposed packages, with
intrepid-proposed checked, did not change the situation: enabling
"Normal" desktop effects (System > Preferences > Appearance) still
causes the X session to freeze (keyboard stops responding, windows and
panels disappear, and the only way out is to hard-reboot) after
"searching for available drivers" for a moment. So it is pretty much the
same as in Jerry's case, except that the screen does not "go to hash"
(if I understood this correctly — in my non-native speaker's vocabulary,
hash is the "#" sign...), but all I can see is the wallpaper and mouse
pointer (which I can still move). Sorry to say.

by telling us the large numbers signify the number of unistalled

Would you please specify the syntax for upgrading just the mentioned

2008-10-29 Thread Pajari Räsänen
As an addition to Jerry's and Aero's posts:

My desktop machine's Compaq Evo D 510 SFF (a.k.a. D51S, mentioned
earlier a couple of times in this thread, with "VGA compatible
controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset
Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01)") and the problem persists in
Intrepid, all updates done. Compiz version: 1:0.7.8-0ubuntu4. I do have
intrepid-proposed enabled. I second Jerry's words:

"I can try a new version of compiz if someone would explain how to get
it, preferably with an apt-get syntax."

However, I would like to add (or repeat) that this Compiz issue is not
the only problem with the intel driver in my desktop machine, because in
most cases, logging out or trying to change user (FUSA) results in a
blank (black) screen, GDM sound heard but nothing to be seen (have to
Ctrl+Alt+F1 out of the situation). See LP # 221119:

2008-10-23 Thread Pajari Räsänen
Replying myself to the previous question: no improvement for me. After
adding *Driver "i810"* to my xorg.conf, rebooting resulted in low
graphics mode. Changing (back) to *Driver "intel"*, the problems still
persist: (Prob. No. 1) Logging out of the X session, I get just a black
screen, out of which I can just Ctrl+Alt+F1 into a virtual terminal.
This happens most of the time, but once in a while the GDM login screen
starts normally (or after a couple of seconds of flashing on the black
screen). (Prob. No. 2) If I turn "Desktop Effects" on (or run "compiz
--replace"), the system (or Xorg) freezes (after "Checking for available
drivers...") so that I can see just the wallpaper and the keyboard stops
responding, so that I can only hard-reboot.

2008-10-18 Thread Pajari Räsänen
My problems appear more or less related. I upgraded to Intrepid beta
from Hardy a few days ago. My Compaq Evo D510 (external HDD install) has
an Intel 845 graphics card. Compiz no longer works after the upgrade
from Hardy to Intrepid (see my other reports 283056 and 284461), so I
removed Compiz for the time being. Screen flickering is not the biggest
problem and most of the time I can log on without problems. But when I
(or any other user of the machine, for that matter) log out from the
Gnome session (at the moment, I'm using only Gnome and Fluxbox as
another option) I get just a black screen, hearing the default login
sound but no login screen, just a black screen with a very minimally
flickering texture — I mean it is not as simply "black" as for instance
the virtual terminal background. In order to continue (to shut down or
to do anything), I must drop into a VT (Ctrl+Alt+F1). In both
/var/log/gdm/0:log.1 and Xorg.0.log.old you can see the error "(EE)
intel(0): underrun on pipe A!" several times.

My xorg.conf information looks as plain as this:

to shut down the computer). That is, if you look closely enough.

I hope these descriptions can be of some help. Ubuntu's great, and
Intrepid is really promising in spite of the beta bugs, keep up the good
work!

[Bug 284461] Re: After login, blank screen, keyb. not responding, mouse works

2008-10-16 Thread Pajari Räsänen
One more thing I tried out: Logging on to my own main user account, I
chose Gnome session from the Options menu at the log-on screen. Then I
logged out and even though the screen flickered for a while, I got into
the log-on screen (instead of ending up at a black screen, hearing the
log-on sound but seeing just black, as I earlier did). Now I tried
logging on to a newly created user account, choosing the Gnome session
again. This time logging out resulted, again, in a black screen (log-on
sound but nothing else), from which I had to "escape" into TTY1 by
typing Ctrl+Alt+F1.

2008-10-16 Thread Pajari Räsänen
I removed compiz and compiz-core and tried again. I tried logging on to
a newly created account and succeeded. However, there is another problem
I did not report in the previous post: When I logged out, I got a black
screen, no mouse pointer this time, Ubuntu default logon sound (or was
it the session welcome sound again? I have to return to this, since I'm
writing this down on my laptop and it's the desktop that has the
issues...). Ctrl+Alt+F1 gets me into TTY1 and "ubuntu-desktop login"
prompt.

I have encountered this problem several times today, actually each time
I logout from the Gnome session (also the main user session which
otherwise works normally).

So it seems to me this issue is not only related to Compiz. Please take
a look also at another bug report I filed yesterday (it seems related):

[Bug 284461] [NEW] After login, blank screen, keyb. not responding, mouse works

2008-10-16 Thread Pajari Räsänen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Might be a Compiz issue? I can log on to my own account with no problem
(compiz effects are disabled), but logging on to another account, all I
get is the default Ubuntu session welcome sound, a few seconds of the
usual orange screen, then the background turns black, the mouse cursor
chnages into the animated mode (I don't know what to call this,
corresponding to "hourglass") and remains movable but the keyboard stops
responding (no key combination has any effect and Num Lock or Caps Lock
do not "turn on the light", either. The only way to get out of the
situation seems to be hard reboot.

I tried removing all the dotfiles and hidden directories from the user
account where this problem occurs, to no avail. I removed the whole
account (backep up everything first, of course) and created a couple of
new users; trying to log on as a new user, the issue is reproduced:
blank screen, keyboard unresponsive.

Previously I had to disable compiz, because trying to enable DE effects
always resulted in a freeze and need of hard reboot. I can of course
uninstall compiz, but since the DE effects worked fine in Hardy (from
which I upgraded to Intrepid beta), I thought it might be a good idea to
file a bug report.

[Bug 280428] Re: Prompted for VPN (openvpn) user info at boot-up

2008-10-15 Thread Pajari Räsänen
I agree, and I realized that the problem persists for users upgrading to
Intrepid and using OpenVPN (I mean, the behaviour has not been changed
yet): I upgraded from Hardy to Intrepid on another machine and had to
remove OpenVPN from the autostarted-at-boot apps list. I also realized,
while still using Hardy, that VPN autostart authentication at boot-up
just silently fails (and this might be a better policy, from an average
user's perspective, I believe).

[Bug 283032] [NEW] package abiword-help 2.6.4-4ubuntu3 failed to install/upgrade:

2008-10-13 Thread Pajari Räsänen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: abiword

1) Intrepid 8.10
2) 2.6.4-4ubuntu3

Upgraded from Hardy 8.04 ("Alt+F2 update-manager -d" method) yesterday,
have had problems with update-manager and dpkg (booting recovery mode
and using dpkg option returns errors and suggests "dpkg --configure -a",
but this does not seem to work).

So, expectably(?) because of the mentioned problems, this is one of the
crashes automatically reported when Gnome X session starts.

[Bug 281870] Re: Sound Converter wma to mp3 conversion fails

2008-10-11 Thread Pajari Räsänen
I might as well convert this "bug" into a question, since I doubt it's
not really a bug after all, but an expectable compatibility problem with
WMA files. So maybe the question is: is SoundConverter supposed to be
able to handle WMA to MP3 conversions without problems? Maybe I am
missing some extra codecs package which would solve the issue?

[Bug 274155] Re: Intrepid: quiet splash freezes but verbose boots up fine

2008-10-10 Thread Pajari Räsänen
After updating to kernel 2.6.27-6-generic, the quiet splash has no
longer frozen on my Acer Travelmate 2354. The process bar halts for a
couple of seconds at the same spot where it previously completely froze
(about one tenth of the whole, rather than one fifth as I earlier
sloppily estimated), but then it continues as it should.

[Bug 280428] [NEW] Prompted for VPN (openvpn) user info at boot-up

2008-10-08 Thread Pajari Räsänen
Public bug reported:

After upgrading to Intrepid Ibex I have been prompted at bootup for VPN
username and password. This is confusing, since it did not happen with
Hardy and I do not want this to happen — it serves no purpose for me and
is an inconvenience also for other users of the laptop. All I want to do
is launch OpenVPN whenever I need to, during the GUI session and not
before logging in. I am reporting this as a bug in Intrepid because this
did not happen with Hardy.

2008-10-04 Thread Pajari Räsänen
My verbose boot-up hangs occasionally at "Loading hardware drivers" too,
and I wonder if this is related to my WiFi card (Buffalo AirStation
PCMCIA WLAN card) and bw43-fwcutter. Choosing either "Recovery mode" or
"Last succesful boot" helps.  Once I could make the boot-up continue by
detaching the WLAN card for a second or two and re-attaching it then.

But this might not be the same issue as the fact that while the quiet
splash boot-up hangs early on (about one fifth of the process bar),
verbose boot-up works...

[Bug 269292] Re: intrepid, visual effects settings are not restored after session restart

2008-09-14 Thread Pajari Räsänen
I have to take back what I wrote in my previous post: Terminal
transparency settings probably do not affect the Visual Settings scheme
(?) and I'm not sure whether any change has been made in the upgrade to
Intrepid in regard of the transparency behaviour; it's the other way
around, as I see it, namely so that "true" transparency presupposes that
Compiz visual effects are enabled to some degree: "Normal" mode perhaps?

An easy workaround seems to be the command "metacity --replace".

[Bug 269292] Re: intrepid, visual effects settings are not restored after session restart

2008-09-13 Thread Pajari Räsänen
It appears that setting a transparent Gnome Terminal interferes with the
visual effects, and setting the Visual Effects to "None" correspondingly
affects the Terminal settings (transparency disappears). It appears also
that the Terminal transparency setting is interpreted as belonging to a
"Custom" type of "Visual Effects", because none of the options in
"Visual Effects" is checked after restart (regularly GUI options box,
"none checked" often equals "custom settings in use", as we all know).

I realized that the Gnome Terminal transparency behavior has changed in
the upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid, so that the former pseudo
transparency has changed into "true" transparency (meaning that the
transparent window lets the underlying windows and not only the desktop
background be seen through).

So, if my guess is correct, it could be that saved custom visual
settings (such as Terminal transparency) affect the Visual Effects
scheme?

2008-09-13 Thread Pajari Räsänen
I confirm that disabling visual effects is not restored in Intrepid
(fresh install to a system with a separate /home partition). What is
more, when I start a new session and realize that the visual effects are
re-enabled in spite of my having them switched off, if I go to "System >
Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects", none of the circles seems
checked. I can check "None" and it works for the rest of the session,
but after restart, apparently the "Normal" visual effects (or maybe some
modified mode of the effects, since none of the options seems to be
checked?) are enabled again.

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 216104 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/216104

I'm afraid I rejoiced too early, i.e. the problem persists. Yesterday I
could mount the shares after checking a few boxes in Guarddog, but the
host machine (my desktop acting as a file and print server, as well as
my kids' gaming machine) was running Windows at that moment. Today I
tried mounting the shares and printing from my Ubuntu laptop while also
the desktop was running Ubuntu (installed on an external HDD partition),
but could not.

Is this bug really a duplicate of #216104? I wonder, because the error
message differs slightly (here "No application is registered as handling
this file", there "The specified location is not mounted"). Perhaps I'm
just ignoring something (as a strictly non-technical — but well-meaning
— user).

In my case it was not a bug after all, it seems. I installed Guarddog
(having used it earlier but, for some reason, having also uninstalled
it) and fixed the problem by changing the firewall settings. So the
"bug" was due to restrictive iptables settings, as it seems.

Sorry for the unnecessary post.
