[Bug 544741] Re: [X700] KMS, amd64: Kernel panic while trying to launch system preferences appearance

2010-05-08 Thread Torbjørn Sund
Thought I would try radeon.modeset=0 as suggested earlier, but found
that menu.lst has disappeared with grub2. The documentation for grub2 is
poor to say the least. So I gave up, went back to 9.10, which worked
fine.

[Bug 544741] Re: [X700] KMS, amd64: Kernel panic while trying to launch system preferences appearance

2010-05-07 Thread Torbjørn Sund
After upgrading to Ubuntu 10.04 i386 my system freezes when changing
users. Had no problems with 9.10. Have applied all system updates.

System: Acer Travelmate 3222, 2GB, external display HP L1720 @1280x1024. Video 
ATI Radeon Mobility X700.
Symptoms: 
- 1. Sluggish display (could it be the change from nv to nouveau display 
driver?)
- 2. Consistently upon Change user the display goes blank except for cursor 
and sometimes noise in lower part. Possible to switch to login terminal and 
back (ctrl-alt-f1/f7), but only once, when repeated system freezes. 
Solution:
Reboot.

I will provide more information on request, but I am not a Linux expert.

[Bug 50558] Re: Lack of portmap makes nfs mounts slow

2006-10-26 Thread Torbjørn Sund
This bug has also been reported in bug 48366.

Portmap is definitely needed for nfs mounts - unless one considers 1m30s
waits ok. It has nothing to do with the liveCD as such. The wait occurs
also in Thunderbird when accessing nfs-mounted mail directories. Unless
there is a good reason for not installing portmap I suggest to include
it as default, or at least make the nfs client depend on it.

(The nfs mount program might also try and detect a missing portmap and
issue a warning - would have saved me some hours of hunting for the
error).

Affects also Edgy Eft Release candidate 20061019.

[Bug 40537] Re: Openoffice.org2 cannot write to NFS files

2006-10-26 Thread Torbjørn Sund
Had the same problem on Edgy eft RC, found out by some googling that the
error was caused by OpenOffice not being able to lock the file
(OpenOffice could have said so!).

Open Office needs statd on the client machine to lock files. I solved
the problem by installing nfs-common. Shouldn't that be installed by
default? The documentation says Use this package on any machine that
uses NFS, either as client or server.  Programs included: lockd, statd,
showmount, nfsstat, gssd and idmapd.
