[Bug 1947626] [NEW] Undefined symbol: mkl_sparse_optimize_bsr_trsm_i8

2021-10-18 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Public bug reported:

Hi,

I am using 21.10 with intel-mkl 2020.4.304-2.

When I try to use a program that was built with intel-mkl libraries from
Ubuntu, I get the error:

-
INTEL MKL ERROR: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmkl_avx512.so: undefined symbol: 
mkl_sparse_optimize_bsr_trsm_i8.
Intel MKL FATAL ERROR: Cannot load libmkl_avx512.so or libmkl_def.so.
-

It seems that it is associated with some error with "static linkage".
See: https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-oneAPI-Math-Kernel-
Library/mkl-fails-to-load/m-p/1155538

In fact, if I define LD_PRELOAD (as suggested in the above page) to:

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/libmkl_def.so:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/libmkl_avx2.so:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/libmkl_core.so:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/libmkl_intel_lp64.so:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/libmkl_intel_thread.so:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libiomp5.so

The error goes away.

[Bug 1882890] Re: intel-ucode/06-4e-03 from release 20200609 hangs system in early boot

2020-06-10 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Same problem here on Ubuntu 20.04 in a Dell Latitude E7470 with a Core
i5-6300U. The machine hangs on boot. I can not even reboot the machine
using the alt-prtsc-b. It was completely frozen. Only a long press on
the power button would work. My workaround was to boot into recovery
mode (maybe you a need an older kernel for that) and do a

apt --purge remove intel-microcode

The purging process rebuilds initramfs. After that I could reboot again.

Here is the output asked above.

pjssilva@trinity:~$ dmesg | grep microcode
[0.102417] SRBDS: Vulnerable: No microcode
[0.578849] microcode: sig=0x406e3, pf=0x80, revision=0xcc
[0.578971] microcode: Microcode Update Driver: v2.2.

This looks like a serious bug. Maybe pull out the update from the
repositories until a solution is found?

[Bug 1708222] Re: Long, multi-threaded compilations, segfault in Ryzen

2017-08-11 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
It seems to be confirmed as a hardware problem. See:

https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ryzen-Segv-Response

I have entered in contact with AMD and am doing an RMA of my CPU in the
next days. From what I could grasp the bug is usual in the first batches
of Ryzen, so there might be many affected CPUs in the wild. AMD is not
issuing a recall, it will treat with it in a case by case basis.

Anyone can check if their CPU has the problem by running the kill-
ryzen.sh script described in the original bug report. If your CPU has
the problem contact AMD technical support using the link in the Phoronix
article linked above.

Maybe I should mark this bug as invalid? At least the bug report will
remain here so that other affected Ubuntu users may find out how to
proceed.

2017-08-04 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
It had just exploded in Phoronix! See

https://phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ryzen-Test-Stress-Run

Michael can also reproduce the problem using his test suite using

PTS_CONCURRENT_TEST_RUNS=4 TOTAL_LOOP_TIME=60 phoronix-test-suite
stress-run build-linux-kernel build-php build-apache pgbench apache
redis

I hope AMD get their act together soon.

** Description changed:

  I have a Ryzen 1700X on a MSI B350 Motherboard and 64 Gb of RAM (Corsair
  LPX 2400). If I do a very intensive multi-threaded compilation session
  sometimes I get a segfault. This seems to be a problem with Ryzen it
  self nad maybe it is related to the bug described in bug #1690085 but I
  believe it is not the same. This bug affects many Linux users with
  Ryzen, see for example this thread in the AMD forum:
  https://community.amd.com/thread/215773?start=0&tstart=0 or the Gentoo
  Wiki that talks about this problem in the Troubleshoting section of
  their Ryzen page: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Ryzen#Troubleshooting
  
  It is also very easy to verify if you have a processor with the problem.
  Fortunately some smart people have created a simple script that always
  shows the problem in my system and in the systems of the other people of
  the thread. The script can be found in
  
  https://github.com/suaefar/ryzen-test
  
  You just have to clone the repository using git, move to the ryzen-test
  directory and run ./kill_ryzen.sh. It is a very simple script, it
  downloads gcc-7.1 source code into a vram disk and start #processors
  simultaneous compilation of it. If any compilation fails it writes a
  message in the console saying how long it took to get the failure. After
  a few minutes, the build in my system fails unless I turn off SMT. With
  SMT off it can take many hours, but still fails in less than one day.

I am having the same problem in three different system. One laptop and
two desktops. It seems unlikely to me that it can be a hardware problem.
Maybe a problem with the driver.

2013-05-06 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
I attach a script that should be able to fix the files and still keep
reasonable approximations of the original comments with non-ASCII
characters. It assumes that the bad files are using UTF-8 encoding. To
use it you should (as root, that is using sudo):

0) Copy recusively /etc/apt/sources.list.d to a safe location
1) Copy the fix-source-list.sh (attached file) to /etc/apt/sources.list.d and 
chdir there
2) Make it executable
3) run it typing "sudo ./fix-source-list.sh"
4) Delete fix-source-list.sh from /etc/apt/sources.list.d

It will create new version of the *.list files with the non-ASCII
characters converted to an ASCII approximation.

Now try "apt-get update", if it works OK, try to edit your sources using
software-properties.

If something goes wrong, delete the bad /etc/apt/sources.list.d and copy
back the backup you made in step 0 (you did it, right?).

[Bug 976124] Re: lightdm multiseat: no login possible

2012-11-16 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
After using my new setup, described in comment #23 above for the whole
day I have some interesting news: whenever X restart in the second seat,
the first seat is kicked out to a black screen and to go back to the its
graphical interface I need to type ALT-F7.

This fact explain the problem I was seeing when the seats start, as X
for second seat is called after X for the first seat.

Unfortunately this makes the day-to-day use of a newer lightdm much more
annoying than I originally thought, as the first seat can be kicked out
to the black screen many times a day.

Even worse, at least twice, when the second seat closed the section the
transition of the first seat to the black screen resulted in X crashing,
completely closing the section for the fist seat (and then ALT-F7 would
take you a to a login screen). This is a very bad behavior as it can
easily lead to data loss for the first seat user.

[Bug 976124] Re: lightdm multiseat: no login possible

2012-11-15 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
After this recent increase on the activity associated with this bug I
decided to take some time and investigate further the behavior of the
current lightdm.

After many try-and-error on changing the options on lightdm.conf I got
an almost perfect setup for my configuration. My configuration is

1) A core-i5 2400 system. First seat uses Intel's integrated graphics.
Second seat uses a AMD based card with radeon (open source) graphics.

2) I am using a single xorg.conf file with multiple layouts and
hardcoded input devices (I don't believe that this is really important,
but it is better to documented it just in case).

At least with this configuration lightdm  works, with a small catch -
see below, if I delete the -sharevts option when calling X for the first
seat. Note that lightdm work accept -sharevts on both seats in version
1.0.6 (Oneiric), but it stopped working with the version shipped with
Precise.

The only caveat right now is that the first seat (the one that does not
have the -sharevts option) does change to automatically to its virtual
terminal, presenting just a black screen with a blinking cursor to the
user. To go to the graphicallogin just press Alt-F7 (my first graphical
login screen is in VT7).

If I add -sharevts back to the first seat the graphical login appears
automatically but the password field can not be used (the behavior
described in this bug). I could not find another option to add in place
of -sharevts to make the graphical login screen appear automatically.

If others can confirm this behavior I believe that the bug should be
closed. Maybe we should open another bug if we can not find a way to
make the first login screen automatically, but this is a different
problem IMHO.

I attach next my current lightdm.conf (it is very simple right now).

[Bug 976124] Re: lightdm multiseat: no login possible

2012-11-13 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
I'll try to make a case for multiseat:

1) It is associated with two of the last 5 question on lightdm present
in

https://launchpad.net/lightdm

today.

2) Multiseat is considered a major benefit of Fedora 17 and Gnome 3.4:

http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/multi-seat.html
http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/3.4/  (see hardware section)

That is, multiseat, is trying to go mainstream specially with pluggable
USB multiseat devices as the one made by pluggable.com.

3) It may have few users because it was never well supported in "plain"
Ubuntu.

For example the following the official Wiki pages for multiseat suggest
that "The predominant display manager of choice has been KDM"
(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiseatX). So maybe the users are
just using KDM instead of lightdm.

Easy multiseat would be a very nice addition to Ubuntu as it would allow
for easy and efficient sharing of todays overpowered (for the vast
majority) desktop computers.

Anyhow, I am not sure this is enough to bump up the importance of this
bug.

bought through Hmble Bundle (I believe 5), and Memory Owl. I have also
tried to remove one of those games and deleted the respective files in

[Bug 836250] Re: [Oneiric] [Regression] Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 poor networking, packet loss and very slow Lenovo X201 and T500 laptops

2012-06-18 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Aravind,

I also have problems with some b/g only routers and I have found two
related workarounds that have solved my problems with those specific
routers. In these cases the problem is with the IPv6 stack, so the
solution is to turn off IPV6. There are two ways to accomplish this:

1) Goto network manager indicator e select "Edit connections" and in the
wireless section select the SSID associated to your router and click
"Edit". Look for the IPv6 configuration tab and select the option
"Ignore" under "Method". You may need to log out and login again. This
will tur off IPv6 for that router only.

2) Turn off IPv6 globally. This seems to be achieved with the option
"ipv6.disable=1" in the boot parameters.

It may help you.

It also affects me.

A simple workaround is to install the lightdm package from Oneiric:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/lightdm

I downloaded it from that page and installed manually using dpkg. It is
seems to work well.

In order to avoid an update of the package to the Precise version you
need to put lightdm on hold:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto#Introduction_to_Holding_Packages

Note that this is not an ideal solution as you will not receive security
updates for this package. By putting it on hold you are assuming manual
control over it, so it is your responsibility to update it manually when
needed.

Zeitkunst,

I have a problem with the router of my son's therapist, it uses WEP not
PAP. But I managed to solve it by using wicd instead of the network-
manager to control the network.

Try

sudo apt-get install wicd

It will install some packages (you don't need to uninstall network-
manager). After that disconnect from wirelless network in network-
manager, and call wicd. Try to connect with it to you desired network.
You'll have to give it the password using the "properties" button.

You may give it a try.

For people seeing better behavior after changing to WPA-PSK.

I was having the same problem in my system in the wating room of my
son's therapyst (which we visit twice a week). The router is configured
to use WEP and the connection would drop almost immediately. For obvious
reasons I can not change the router configuration (even though I should
take the time to explain to them how insecure is WEP).

I found out searching for possile solutions on the net that adding the
option "ipv6.disable=1" to my boot line works. Give it a try.

[Bug 988130] [NEW] Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 phone is not recognized

2012-04-24 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Public bug reported:

My Sony Ericsson phone, model Xperia X10, is not recognized in both
Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04 (upgraded from 11.10).

I looked at the /usr/share/media-player-info/sony-
ericsson_xperia-x10.mpi and it does not have the specific usb id for my
device which is:

Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0fce:612e Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB

(from lsusb).

I tried to manually add the above id to the mpi file changind the line

DeviceMatch=usb:0fce:312e;usb:0fce:d12e;usb:0fce:e12e;

to

DeviceMatch=usb:0fce:312e;usb:0fce:d12e;usb:0fce:e12e;usb:0fce:612e;

But it did not work, which puzzled me. Another thing that comes to my
mind is that some time ago Ubuntu used to ask me what to do with other
media in the phone (like photos). That dialog is not appearing anymore.
Maybe a more general system is broken?

A possible workaround to make banshee and rhythmbox reconize the phone
it is to use a .is_audio_player file.

Extra information:

1) Ubuntu version

Description:Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
Release:12.04

2) pjssilva@trinity:~$ apt-cache policy media-player-info
media-player-info:
  Instalado: 16-1

  Tabela de versão:
 *** 16-1 0
500 http://mirror.globo.com/ubuntu/archive/ precise/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) What I expected to happen: when plugging in my phone I would expect
it to be reconized as a media player by Banshee or Rhythmbox.

4) The phone is not recognized.

[Bug 883225] Re: Unity looks strange when used in multiseat setup

2011-12-16 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Now I found out the problem. DRI is not being used due to lack of
permissions for the second seat. This happens even though I have

Section "DRI"
Mode0666
EndSection

in my xorg.conf file.

It looks like console kit is defining the permissions of
/dev/dri/card[0-1]. It is readable and writable only by root (the owner)
and the group 'video'.  The users in my system do not belong to the
group video but some how the user using the first seat can use DRI since
this is the session marked as active by console kit. The second session
is marked inactive and the user is not granted permission to use DRI.

As I workaround I added my users (they are just a few) to the 'video'
group. I have now a fully working two seat system.  I suggest that this
bug should be marked as invalid if my finding can be reproduced as it is
actually a bug related to permissions controlled by console kit. Maybe
it is a bug in console kit itself, but not a unity bug.

2011-12-10 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Omer,

How can I verify whether gnome-settings-daemon is crashing? Note that
the problem never happens if I try to use a Gnome (shell) session. Don't
they use gnome-settings-daemon anymore?

The problem does not happen all the time for me. It only happens in the
second seat and after one failure (some time a little more), unity
starts working correctly. As I explained above in the first try
unity_support_test says that unit is not supported but unity-2d is not
correctly started either.  After some tries unity_support_test starts
saying that unity is supported and it starts correctly.

Another way to avoid the problem is to first use a Gnome session,
logging out and then using unity after that. The Gnome sessions seems to
be doing some kind of initialization that unity is lacking.

Finally, I was trying come out with a workaround that would allow me to
use unity-2d only when necessary (a simple one would be to use unity-2d
aways) and I may have found a way to reproduce the behavior in a single
seat environment. Just drop the attached 51force_unity_2D file in the
/etc/X11/Xsession.d and start the regular unity session. What this file
does is set up DESKTOP_SESSION and GDMSESSION environment variables to
"ubuntu-2d", trying to force unity-2d to be used. This approach was
inspired by reading /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50_check_unity_support. In my
machine neither unity nor unity-2d are correctly started. I only get
nautilus running. This is exactly the behavior I am experiencing in the
second seat in the first runs.

[Bug 883225] Re: Unity looks strange when used in multiseat setup

2011-12-08 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
I forgot to mention...

Tom try to use a regular theme like Radiance in your second seat to see
if the theming bugs go away. I also had similar problems when using
11.10 just after a reinstall. At the end some icons were missing,
because I used Faenza icon set before. I only had to reinstall Faenza
and the icons reappeared.

If your second seat is fixed when using a default Ubuntu theme then your
problem is just like mine with the seats reversed. It would be
interesting if you try the unity_support_test in the first seat.

[Bug 883225] Re: Unity looks strange when used in multiseat setup

2011-12-08 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
I am not completely sure the same bug affects me, but it is at least
closely related.

I am also trying to get a two seat setup working. The first seat is on
the primary graphics card which is the internal Intel card for a core i5
2400. The second seat is on a Radeon HD 5450 (PCI-Express).

Unity works well in the first seat, however it does not work well in the
second seat. Usually the first attempt after booting ends up with  a
non-functional desktop (usually with the nautilus menu on top, some
times a screen with only the background). It seems that something is not
initialized because if I open a terminal and try
/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p, I get:

OpenGL vendor string:   Mesa Project
OpenGL renderer string: Software Rasterizer
OpenGL version string:  2.1 Mesa 7.11

Not software rendered:no
Not blacklisted:  yes
GLX fbconfig: yes
GLX texture from pixmap:  no
GL npot or rect textures: yes
GL vertex program:yes
GL fragment program:  yes
GL vertex buffer object:  yes
GL framebuffer object:yes
GL version is 1.4+:   yes

Unity 3D supported:   no

After logging out and coming back unity seems to work and
/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -p gives:

OpenGL vendor string:   X.Org
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on AMD CEDAR
OpenGL version string:  2.1 Mesa 7.11

Not software rendered:yes
Not blacklisted:  yes
GLX fbconfig: yes
GLX texture from pixmap:  yes
GL npot or rect textures: yes
GL vertex program:yes
GL fragment program:  yes
GL vertex buffer object:  yes
GL framebuffer object:yes
GL version is 1.4+:   yes

Unity 3D supported:   yes

So it looks like the Gallium 3D driver is only loaded on the second try
(sometimes I need to try 3 or more times).

Another interesting catch is that 3D seems to be working even in the
first try when unity does not (if I call glxgears it give the same
number of frames it gives in the second try when  unity_support_test
says that Gallium driver is working).

Two other interesting notes is that unity-2d works always for me (and I
don't know why it is not started in the first run, as unity_support_test
is saying that regular unity is not supported).  Gnome shell also seems
to work always.

[Bug 893590] Re: Control-C causes LightDM to restart in a Multiseat configuration

2011-11-28 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
I have found out that the first seat can be called without using th
-sharevts option. See the attached lightdm.conf. With this new
configuration I get an almost perfect two seat configuration but one
problem remain.

If the second seat closes a session (and hence restart its X server to
go back to lightdm greeting screen) the first seat is moved to a new
virtual terminal. To get back to the original terminal we need to type
alt-f7 in seat 1. This is quite annoying, but much less annoying than
killing the session with ctr-c. Note that the -sharevts option precludes
this behavior but has the ctr-c kills X problem.

Same here.

Even if I start a single seat, commenting out the entry in lightdm.conf
for the second seat, the problem with ctr-c continues. Actually, I found
out that the problem is easily reproducible even in usual computers with
a single graphic card in single seat configuration. Only add the option

xserver-command=X -sharevts

to the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file. Now any press to ctr-c will kill
X.

If you delete the -sharevts option then the problem is gone. Hence the
culprit seems to be how lightdm (or the X) handles this option.

I also can confirm this bug, I have the same wireless card. What is most
interesting in my case is that the bug in my wi-fi card exposes a bug in
my router (TP-Link TL-WR1043ND with DD-WRT firware) and crashes the
router. I have to reboot the router after some minutes of 11n use. I may
not be alone as the following thread in ubuntuforums suggests:

  To reproduce (it is not 100% deterministic, but it happens a lot)
  
  1) Start Unity
  2) Open firefox maximized
  3) Create a new window with ctrl-n
  4) Open workspace viwe with super-s and move the new window to the workspace 
to the right.
  5) Move from one workspace to the other using super-right arrow or super-left

2010-10-28 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
As I said in comment #103 we should be careful not to hijack this bug
report. The original bug report was about a E6410 with intel graphics
and a core i5. I have such a machine as the original reporter and my
laptop is resuming flawlessly with Ubuntu 10.10 kernel (2.6.35-22).

Are there any other people here with laptop with those specs who can
confirm that the Macerick kernel works?

If that is the case, I would kindly suggest people with other hardware
to open specific bugs. For example, people with core i7 that are having
problems with resuming when speedstep is on in the bios. The same for
people with nvidia cards. By doing so, we can allow this bug to be
closed and have new specific bugs for other problems so that the
developers can have better clues on how to solve them.

[Bug 665651] [NEW] pm-utils does not follow requests to inhibit suspend/hibernate from scripts in /etc/pm/sleep.d

2010-10-23 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: pm-utils

1) ubuntu version

Description:Ubuntu 10.10
Release:10.10

2) package version:

pm-utils:
  Instalado: 1.4.1-3
  Candidato: 1.4.1-3
  Tabela de versão:
 *** 1.4.1-3 0
500 http://br.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

3) If a script in /etc/pm/sleep.d returns a non-zero value upon requests
to suspend or hibernate, the suspend/hibernate process should be
aborted.

4) The system ignores the return value and supends/hibernates anyhow.

In order to reproduce the bug just drop the 00_avoid_suspend script in 
/etc/pm/sleep.d, make it executable and try to sleep.
The system should refuse to sleep but, at least here, it doesn't.

The problems seems to be in the _run_hook() function defined in file
/usr/lib/pm-utils/pm-fuctions. This is the function that calls the
scripts in the /etc/pm/sleep.d directory. After calling the script,
_run_hook calls the function log twice before checking the script return
value. It seems that the return value is being set back to 0 in these
calls to log (but I am no bash expert).

To walk around I just added a line to store the script return value in a
temporary variable and used that variable after the log calls to check
the original result. Now it seems to work. My current _run_hook function
looks like this:

_run_hook() {
# $1 = hook to run
# rest of args passed to hook unchanged.
log "Running hook $*:"
hook_ok "$1" && "$@"
status=$?
log ""
log -n "$*: " 
hook_exit_status $status && LAST_HOOK="${1##*/}" || inhibit
}

Since I am no bash expert, I can not assure that this is a proper
solution, but it works here.

[Bug 578673] Re: [arrandale] Resume doesn't work on a Latitude E6410

2010-08-20 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Martin,

I already had lucid-proposed enabled but I did not find any new kernel
there, is it in lucid-update already?

I even tried to manually inspect

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid-proposed/main/binary-
amd64/Packages.bz2

to see if I could find a linux-image in there but there wasn't any.

What is exactly the package you want us to install (the name I can give
to apt-get)?

I am running linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic which seems like the latest
kernel image available but it does not work.

2010-08-09 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
I believe we should be careful not to hijack this bug report with other
issues. It is about resume from suspend (not hibernate) in machines with
the intel graphics card. It also assumes that your machine is usable
before suspend. If you machine already boots to a blank screen, I
believe you have another problem.

So, for this specific issue, kernel

linux-image-2.6.35-14-generic

from the kernel ppa https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa

To test it, just add the ppa and install linux-generic-lts-backport-
maverick package.

My laptop has other issues with the screen specially if I try to connect
an external monitor.  With an external monitor suspend is unreliable,
but probably we should open a new bug report for this and I pretend do
it once I am confident that this first bug is fixed.

Unfortunately it did not work for me. Actually I did not turned the
screen on during boot. The screen remained blank all the time but I
could know that he boot was successful because I could hear the drums
sound when gdm kicks in. I had to move to the console with ctrl+f1 and
reboot with ctrl+alt+del. The console is also blank. Hence I could not
even test suspend.

The fact that the laptop resumes and can be accessed remotely was
already known and already works in the current Lucid kernel, see comment
#40. The problem currently is that the resume does not "turn the
internal LCD panel on".

There are some workarounds in this report (use vesa graphics or
acpi_sleep=s3_bios). But I believe that Manoj wants reports on people
using clean Lucid without any workaround on.

I am also affected by this bug. Hence the fix does not work for all.

This is a "fresh" (in the sense that it was not upgraded) install of
Lucid.

I also tried to install manually Maverick's package but it did not solve
the problem. I have also tried to create a new user to test and I could
not print using this new user either.

The workaround suggested Bowmore works.

Above it should read acpi_sleep=s3_bios. Moreover, did you  deleted

[Bug 602718] [NEW] Uncaught exception in page http://www.fnac.com.br

2010-07-07 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

I am using latest firefox in Lucid (3.6.6). Whenever a I visit the page

http://www.fnac.com.br

I got many warnings and and two errors in the error console:

Erro: OAS_RICH is not defined
Arquivo-fonte: http://www.fnac.com.br/index.html
Linha: 859

and

Erro: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure

This last one looks like a problem in firefox (the first one more like a
problem in the web site). The result is that the site can not be used in
Ubuntu. The menu is hidden by the large flash banner and the search

2010-06-28 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Carlos:

Yes, you are right, I did not made myself clear. I know that if we use
the vesa driver then we do not need KMS. I was talking about disabling
KMS and trying to keep on using the intel driver. The version of the
intel driver shipped with Lucid still have user mode setting (UMS) code,
so it could work. However, it looks like the UMS in the intel 2.9 driver
can not cope with the new Arrandale chips. Hence, it looks like for the
E6410 (and E6510) we only have two choices:

1) UMS + vesa: in this case suspend works, however no 3D acceleration
(no compositing) and, as you said, no HD films.

2) KMS + intel: 3D + HD work, but suspend does not work and you can not
plug an external monitor after the kernel booted.

2010-06-23 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
I can confirm that Carlos workaround works! Thanks. The only problem is
that in this case we have to use the framebuffer xorg driver, that does
not support composition.

Now we know that the problem is restricted to two subsystems:

1) The kernel mode setting code (in the kernel)
2) The intel xorg driver.

I have a tendency to think the the problem is in the kernel. Maybe it is
time to open a bug report upstream (in the kernel bugzilla)? Or do the
others think that we should open the but in th xorg driver?

Obs: I have a very good experience with this approach. Two and a half
years ago I bought I Toshiba U205 laptop and suspend did not work
either. After fiddling around with some help I (and others) found out
that the problem was in the HD driver. We opened a bug in kernel
bugzilla and the problem was solved very fast. The key here is that the
bug had clearly identified the problematic subsystem and then the kernel
hacker responsible for that subsystem responded very fast. I was very
happy on being able to help to solve the bug in my laptop and many
others Toshiba models.

That is a major point. If there anyone can mimic the pop-up behavior
using a website maybe, and I mean just maybe, we can get the
developers attention on this possible security role. However  it would
need to be done very carefully so that the developers can not counter
argument (I have the feeling that I have already something on this
subject in Ayatana list, but it didn't catch up). If we had a web site
that could mimic the behavior so that a innocent user might give away
his root password then we may have a real situation to complain once
again.

Unfortunately I don't have the resources (knowledge and time) to try
to do it myself.

Why disable it? Just use gconf and recover the old (and good) behavior.

In my case the difference was obvious with a consumer HD (WD AAKS).

Note that the new kernel in 9.10 seems also to be a good improvement.

[Bug 131094] Re: Heavy Disk I/O harms desktop responsiveness

2009-08-12 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Did anyone try koala alpha 3?

I did and have some interesting behavior.

My machine (a intel motherboard with a G33 chipset) and Core 2 Duo E6600
processor. It has 2 SATA drives under AHCI and I use a 64bit kernel.

I can easily reproduce the problem using the fsync-tester program that you can 
get in the kernel bug #12309 
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12309). All I need to do is to run 
the program with a dd that creates 
very large file with the command line:

dd if=/dev/zero of=./bigfile bs=1M count=15000 & ./fsync-tester

In jaunty (ext3) the desktop becomes unresponsive right away. The times
given by fsync-tester look like:

fsync time: 0.5422
fsync time: 6.3691
fsync time: 8.5983
fsync time: 0.7820
fsync time: 0.7695
fsync time: 4.6577
fsync time: 5.6024
fsync time: 9.4238
fsync time: 10.8609

I tried some variations of koala. Here are my findings:

1) 64bit Koala in default configuration (ext4).

The desktop is more responsive, but not really good yet. The fsync-
tester gives:

fsync time: 0.1351
fsync time: 0.9104
fsync time: 9.1311
fsync time: 1.9133
fsync time: 11.9529
fsync time: 1.6751
fsync time: 2.7171
fsync time: 8.4801

So the better responsiveness is not related to the fsync times, probably it is 
related to other
changes in the kernel. There is no clear change if I go from turn AHCI off in 
the bios.

2) If I change the journal mode to writeback, the fsync times improve a
lot (and the responsiveness improve):

fsync time: 0.0781
fsync time: 0.0581
fsync time: 1.7040
fsync time: 1.4743
fsync time: 1.5957
fsync time: 1.7751
fsync time: 1.9164
fsync time: 1.4886
fsync time: 1.3991
fsync time: 1.8332

3) If on the other hand, I use a i386 kernel with the default ordered
mode the times are also much better (as good as writeback + amd64):

fsync time: 0.0677
fsync time: 3.8825
fsync time: 1.4467
fsync time: 2.7759
fsync time: 1.5819
fsync time: 3.2423
fsync time: 3.4318
fsync time: 1.5432
fsync time: 1.3225

4) i386 + writeback gets a little better:

fsync time: 0.0946
fsync time: 1.3528
fsync time: 1.4029
fsync time: 1.3787
fsync time: 1.0880
fsync time: 1.2656
fsync time: 0.9047
fsync time: 0.8842
fsync time: 0.8008
fsync time: 1.4933
fsync time: 1.3645

(There are know 3s delays as above)

5) Now comes the interesting surprise. If I install amd64 koala using ext3 with 
its default mode (which I think is 
writeback, but I am not sure). I get very good responsiveness and times:

fsync time: 0.0329
fsync time: 0.0156
fsync time: 0.2369
fsync time: 0.1274
fsync time: 0.2285
fsync time: 0.2196
fsync time: 0.2563
fsync time: 0.2147
fsync time: 0.2968
fsync time: 0.2602
fsync time: 0.1131
fsync time: 0.2348

I didn't try i386+ext3. I ran out of time and patience :-)

So, in my computer the problem seems to be related with many factors:
amd64 X i386,  writeback X ordered mode, and ext4 X ext3.

It would be very interesting if anyone can reproduce my little
experiment.

And remember, if you are annoyed by this bug you may want to stick with
ext3 in koala for now.

[Bug 406667] [NEW] Bashee does not follow symbolic links in library folder

What I expected to happen:

I have my music collection organized using symbolic links. Part of it is
in flac files and is located at /home/backup-cds/flac. Another part is
made of mp3 bought in emusic and some other random files that are
located in /home/musica. I have added a symbolic link in /home/musica to
link to the flac using:

ln -s /home/backup-cds/flac /home/musica/flac

If I use that /home/musica location in banshee it does not find my flac
files. The other music files are seen.

If delete the symbolic link and move the flac folder to /home/musica
banshee can see it.

I would expect that banshee would follow the symbolic link. Rhythmbox
does.

If I am working I want to ignore the update message. I will have time
for it later in the day. I don't want to decide anything, I want to keep
on working. This is already decided. I don't want to take an action. I
don't want a pop-up/pop-under (so I have to actively close it). I want a
notification for this. It will go away by itself. Maybe a scarier
notification (with a different background color, red for example), can
be good. So that even though I am free to ignore it, I will know that it
is red, then it is a system notification.

Really? Usually, if I do not choose to update right away it is because I
am concentrating on what I am doing. Usually I can not accurately
predict for how long I will work to define the exact moment the update
notification should appear again. If the notification appears while I am
still concentrating I will not look at it. Or are you talking about the
pop-under (that would annoy me again if I am working)?

I would greatly prefer to have a constant reminder in the panel.

[Bug 390318] [NEW] Microphone not working in Windows XP guest

2009-06-21 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose

1) Ubuntu version:

pjssi...@leia:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description:Ubuntu 9.04
Release:9.04

2) Package version:

virtualbox-ose:

3) Expected behavior: microphone should work in Windows XP guest if
virtualbox-ose is configured to use pulseaudio or alsa.

4) What happens: microphone sound is very garbled when using pulse
audio. The voice is very truncated and it is very hard do understand. I
tested using the windows voice recorder and skype (skype notes that the
voice is garbled and simply cut off the microphone). If I use alsa, the
sound is better but there are still click sounds and some noise.

[Bug 332945] Re: [Jaunty] Update Notifier icon would provide useful status information

2009-06-15 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
Chauncellor:

No it is different.

If you read carefully my text you'll see that I consider that the
"notification area" should only be populated by docked applications,
that is running applications that usually should stay in the background
doing their thing but that want to leave some small presence in the
panel to allow for quick, and usually simple, interaction with the user.
Think of a media player or a clipboard manager.

The notifications of update-notifier are just notifications. You don't
want to interact with update-notifier. You interact with update-manager.
The old behavior of update notifier would add icons to the notification
area that do no represent running applications, and that don't have any
other purpose than to call other applications, like update-manager or
the restart dialog.  The proposal I presented says that the place for
such "queued" notifications is the indicator-applet.

There is clear and conceptual difference there.

[Bug 332945] Re: [Jaunty] Update Notifier icon would provide useful status information

2009-06-14 Thread Paulo J. S. Silva
I am for automatic updates for security problems only be default. This
is a sane default, that would suit most users. Of course there are
specific uses (like a slow connection or high fees on downloads already
cited) that would not like such behavior. However, this setting can be
changed from the update-manager easily at install.

As for the pop-up. I still think that the best solution that preserves
the will to clean up the notification area is to use the indicator
applet to queue the update notifications (instead of using the pop-ups,
pop-unders). Something along the lines described by C Cooke in comment
#345 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-
notifier/+bug/332945/comments/345). That idea plus a new icon for the
indicator-applet when critical updates are available (like a red
triangle with a exclamation mark in the middle) would be a very good
start for me. If someone thinks that the user would disregard the
warning icon, maybe use the idea of showing notifications at defined
time intervals (every couple of hours for security updates or every
login for normal updates) should do the trick. If the users wants to
disregards such constants notifications then he/she will do the same
with the pop-up/under.

Oh, and probably the default icon for the indicator applet should change
too, now it is a mail envelope because it is being used only for email
notifications and chat requests, a more neutral icon would be nice (for
example the application icon with a silver circle and the letter i in
the middle).

I am planning to send a message to the ayatana project with this
proposal soon. As someone already said, there is the right place to
discuss this "bug".
