[Bug 413949] Re: PC freezes during install caused by Dell A920 printer
This is such an old bug, I suggest that it be closed. Also I don't use that printer anymore, as it is really low quality. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413949 Title: PC freezes during install caused by Dell A920 printer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/413949/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 359392] Re: [i965] X freezes starting on April 3rd
This bug is marked as fixed, however with Ubuntu Karmic Alpha 5, the 3 times I logged in, the screen froze, the first and second times about 2 minutes after login, and the third time about ten minutes after login. When this happens I have to power off the PC. I was doing different things when the screen froze, so I do not think it was the particular action that caused the freeze. I don't know if the freeze is related to this bug. As someone wrote in the bug description, there could be different bugs that manifest in the same way (freezing). Here is my lspci output: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) With respect to Ubuntu 9.04 that I currently use, things are far from perfect. Watching video streaming is difficult as the image freezes often, scrolling on Firefox is slow, and most annoying of all is that once or twice a day the gnome-panel takes up 50% of CPU time, so the panel freezes. I can often unfreeze it by killing the gnome-panel process. Note however that the gnome panel freezing is less serious than the screen freezing that I experience with Karmic Alpha 5.

[Bug 413949] Re: PC freezes during install caused by Dell A920 printer
Jan, Thanks for taking an interest. OK, I am on Ubuntu 9.04 (which does not have this Gparted/printer problem) with the printer disconnected, so plugged it in. There were some messages about looking for driver and so on, I cancelled them. Then ran dmesg and got this: [ 2862.488044] usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 2862.660648] usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 2862.663278] hub 3-2:1.0: USB hub found [ 2862.666342] hub 3-2:1.0: 2 ports detected [ 2862.945281] usb 3-2.1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 [ 2863.083441] usb 3-2.1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 2863.173369] usb 3-2.2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 [ 2863.310528] usb 3-2.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 2863.339519] usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 4 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x413C pid 0x5106 [ 2863.339546] usbcore: registered new interface driver usblp [ 2864.988685] ppdev0: registered pardevice [ 2865.036260] ppdev0: unregistered pardevice Then I unplugged the USB cable and rebooted with the Ubuntu Karmic Alpha 4, chose option Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer, then plugged in the printer USB cable. Again there were some messages about looking for driver and so on, I cancelled them. Then ran dmesg and got this: [ 359.572016] usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 359.745096] usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 359.748090] hub 3-2:1.0: USB hub found [ 359.750060] hub 3-2:1.0: 2 ports detected [ 360.029939] usb 3-2.1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 [ 360.168052] usb 3-2.1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 360.249908] usb 3-2.2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4 [ 360.387010] usb 3-2.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 360.606947] usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 4 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x413C pid 0x5106 [ 360.606974] usbcore: registered new interface driver usblp Then I went on the System menu I ran Gparted. After a while there was a dialogue box saying that Sorry, the program system-config-printer.py closed unexpectedly. It was the second time this happened to me, but it does not happen every time - i. e. it is not consistently reproducible. One could ask why is Gparted looking for a printer. That error message offered me the possibility to send a report. I said yes. Here it is the new bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/422180 Then I rebooted again to reproduce the issue once more. This time around however Gparted froze the PC, and I had to power it off. The cursor would still move but that was it. At the bottom left of the Gparted window there was a message Scanning all devices, and the progress about was about a third done. It's strange how Gparted seems to be able to freeze the window manager. The moral of the story is that Gparted has frozen my PC as part of running the Karmic install script, and has also frozen my PC if I call if from the Karmic live CD. As I said previously, Gparted in Ubuntu 9.04 works fine on my PC.

[Bug 413949] Re: PC freezes during install caused by Dell A920 printer
Just wanted to add that this bug is not important in the big scheme of things, as it probably affects a very small number of people. It is however an unpleasant bug for this reason: when the PC freezes, one has no idea why it froze. It took a bit of detective work (and luck) to find out the reason. -- PC freezes during install caused by Dell A920 printer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413949 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
[Bug 413949] Re: PC freezes during install caused by Dell A920 printer
** Summary changed: - ubuntu karmic alpha 4 - possible partition editor bug + PC freezes during install caused by Dell A920 printer ** Description changed: I downloaded the alpha 4 CD image, checked MD5, burned a CD, and run it. I did not go far. After choosing language, location, keyboard, it says it is starting the partition manager, and that is it. Nothing happens after, so I had to press the power button to switch the PC off. Nothing much special with my PC. It is a 4.5 year old Dell Dimension. It has two hard disks, the master with two partitions, Dell Utility, and Windows XP. The second disk however, has 12 partitions with a number of empty spaces in between. Some partitions have Ubuntu or Kubuntu (ext4), others are empty, one is for Windows swapping. Also the partition numbers are not in order, for example, after sdb10 comes sdb5. My guess is that the partition editor got confused and lost! Today I installed jaunty for a different test and all went well. So this is a karmic bug. - Today (17/Aug) I tried again to install alpha 4, and got exactly the same error, so this is a repeatable issue (on my PC). I paid a bit more attention to what happened. After step 4 of the installation where I chose the keyboard, a dialogue box appeared, titled Starting up the partitioner. Below it said - I believe - scanning disks, and a few other things, very quickly. There was a progress bar which went fast from 0 to 100%. Then the dialogue box disappeared and the PC froze. The cursor would still move, but clicking on the Quit button had no effect. Also tried ^C, ^D, Escape, nothing worked. So I had to power off the PC. It appears that there is a bug on that part of the installer where a list of options with respect to partitions is created. The screen was never updated to show step 5. I offer to try again to install alpha 4 if someone takes an interest in this bug. I would need instructions on how to enable diagnostics and on how to unfreeze the PC without powering it off, in order to save the diagnostics somewhere, for example, on the USB drive. I am attaching below the list of partitions on my PC.
