[Bug 544741] Re: [X700] KMS, amd64: Kernel panic while trying to launch system preferences appearance
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. -- [X700] KMS, amd64: Kernel panic while trying to launch system preferences appearance https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544741 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 544741] Re: [X700] KMS, amd64: Kernel panic while trying to launch system preferences appearance
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. -- [X700] KMS, amd64: Kernel panic while trying to launch system preferences appearance https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/544741 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 50558] Re: Lack of portmap makes nfs mounts slow
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
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.
