[Bug 1058040] Re: fglrx-installer not working with AMD Radeon/Mobility Radeon HD 2000-4000 cards in Quantal+
And the Open Source x.org radeon driver still overheats, especially on laptops. This has been a problem for at least 4 years that I'm aware of, and not getting perceptibly any better. My 5+ year old Tosh laptop (RS780 graphics aka Radeon 3100 found in the AMD 780V chipset) was fine with the fglrx driver and I was able to force the 2.8x version until I upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04. You can no longer downgrade back to an old copy of 12.04 and force the old version even though it's in the repositories unless you still have your first .iso download with the very oldest 3.2 kernel. Any version of 12.04 I can see to download now with the oldest 3.2 kernel I can find won't install the 2.8x driver, apparently because there's no kernel support for the older drivers (fails sanity check). Somehow the problem has been compounded within the OS community after AMD forked their support for so-called legacy GPUs and the Radeon 5xxx GPUs and newer. I started using Linux 12 or so years ago because it would run on older hardware after MS or Apple discontinued OS support for a given configuration. It looks like Canonical is getting more and more like Apple and Microsoft. Now if your hardware is over 5 years old, you're treated like some sort of Luddite. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1058040 Title: fglrx-installer not working with AMD Radeon/Mobility Radeon HD 2000-4000 cards in Quantal+ To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/1058040/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Where it crashes in the course of the game seems to depend on gameplay action of certain pattern(s) of squares being removed right after the mouseclick to make that move. Is this is perhaps a problem communicating with the fglrx driver? If so, this is the only problem where the video driver may be involved that I'm having. But I noticed the original report refers to the fglrx driver too. Sorry, the segfault messages are all the evidence of the crash I can get.

[Bug 475066] Re: 10.04 beta1 fan is not working and increase the temperature - Toshiba U505 S2930
This is still a problem in 10.04 on my Toshiba L305D-S5959. Setting various boot parameters as mentioned in previous posts (and even some not mentioned) so far have had no effect. The fan is either off and stays off until the critical point is reached and the system shut itself off, or, if the laptop already toasty (70°C or higher), the fan runs full speed even if it cools down to around 45°C or so. No trip points are set except for the critical of 105°C, which is way too hot IMO. Both 9.04 and 9.10 ran just fine in this regard. This is a dual boot laptop, and the only thing that happened between the upgrade to 9.10 and the beginning of Beta testing for 10.04 was Windows 7 was installed on another partition. Vista and Windows 7 had/has no heat issues either. This laptop was purchased in August 2009 when a promotion was being run for the free Windows 7 upgrade. I'm beginning to suspect something was left out of the kernel or was replaced that was in the previous versions' kernels. Running a 32-bit or 64-bit ubuntu build makes no difference either. Because other issues kept nagging for attention during beta testing, I never quite go around to reporting this previously. One thing I have noticed that I thought was odd is the the file /etc/default/acpid is entirely commented, so no acpi modules are being loaded. Enabling loading of ACPI modules makes no difference though either. My next experiment is to see if I can re-load 9.10 or Debian Lenny to see if the heat issue continues or not. -- 10.04 beta1 fan is not working and increase the temperature - Toshiba U505 S2930 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/475066 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 141613] Re: npviewer.bin crashed with SIGSEGV
Back to +2 after my -1 for flash 64 in the repos. We would be better off to have no flash than force an Alpha on AMD64 users. The need for any plug-in unnecessary soon. Adobe is talking with Google about complete integration into Chrome. So this bug discussion could be renedered moot in the near future. What Adobe is developing may never become a full-fledged 64-bit product. There's no plug-in for Windows or Mac being developed at all presently. Some features aren't even implemented yet. Don't force an Alpha down my throat. The 64-bit Alpha isn't faster, and it breaks websites, especially ones that stream video. That can't possibly be better for most end-users. At least Hulu and ESPN 3 work now with the 32-bit plug-in and the wrapper. Take those away and, IMHO, you may as well have no plug-in at all. Let's either fix nspluginwrapper, or tell people we're going to wait to see what Adobe is going to do. BTW, what's going on with these previous two posts?

[Bug 283131] Re: Toshset should be an optional package or routed through upstart or something
The dependencies listed above are no longer an issue, yet it installed (1.75-2) by default with 10.04 Beta 1 AMD64 on a Toshiba Satellite L305D-S5959, a configuration that uses Insyde's H20 EFI framework. Although probably not the case, this package being installed possibly could be obfuscating what is causing overheating issues. With the last kernel update (2.6.32-20) there appears to be no fan control from the kernel. It is either on or off and stays that way probably depending on the temperature sensed before entering booting the kernel. It would probably be better to keep this package as an optional item, not installed by default. -- Toshset should be an optional package or routed through upstart or something https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283131 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

Computer will shut itself off due to temperature under moderate load such as viewing flash video in Firefox on hulu.com. This has been repeated at least 3 times. Running the proprietary fglrx driver 2:8.721-0ubuntu7 (with no other software changes), the computer idles @ 45°C (20°C cooler) at room temperature of ~22°C. Watching video on hulu.com does not cause overheating issues. This is something that could damage computers.

How could these packages be outdated? This was a fresh install of 10.04 Beta 1 the day after its release. All possible updates are being applied as they are released, as fast as I can possibly get them. In the meantime I'm seeing posts on UF that discuss these new packages a day or two before they apparently show up on my update server's repository. Obviously things are changing rapidly as the planned release date approaches. For all I know this report is irrelevant. Installed versions of some packages listed above by Apport retracing service have already been superseded. We may as well close this bug and label irrelevant. Yes this is inconvenient.

[Bug 552650] Re: gnome-appearance-properties crashed with SIGSEGV in g_closure_invoke()
** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center This is related to the new feature that allows switching the button position based upon the theme selected. Crash occurred when switching themes between Ambiance custom theme that had button placement in the right upper window corner. When I re-opened Appearances and went to themes, I was once again presented with the option to move the buttons back to the left side in Ambiance. This is being implemented in the right way, even if new bugs have been introduced. Whether or not it works is inconsistent though, as if not all indicators are being polled. Else it's in the dialog box itself that queries the user about their preference. Suggestion: Ask the user if they want the button position right or left, Asking if they want to "revert" is ambiguous. Does that mean the original position for that theme (and does it mean that theme only), as the button_layout data had edited with gconf or in the "traditional" upper right? - Yes, I'm one of the guys that's been editing metacity;s button_layout + Yes, I'm one of the guys that's been editing metacity's button_layout with gconf-editor.

I had something similar happen while running Firefox 3.6, 10.04 AMD64 Beta1 with all possible updates applied. A flash object apparently triggered the crash while viewing a blog at blogs.zdnet.com. I have a question with a suggestion. Why is it that apport manages to leave out a report that seems to be vital in these instances? If apport is installed, why aren't such contingencies anticipated? Shouldn't such debugging software as vagrind and backtrace be already installed as part of the dependencies and packages being pulled in by an apport based metapackage? BTW, I have no idea if the attachments generated by apport are going to get uploaded here or not since I'm not filing a new bug report.

[Bug 545033] Re: grub does not list Windows 7 anymore
When I updated to the latest kernel (2.6.32-17 generic AMD64) yesterday, my default boot moved from Windows 7 at the bottom of my GRUB2 menu to 2 spots up and made the default memtest86+ and Windows 7 was still at the bottom of the list. Of course two items, the new kernel in both single user and normal mode were placed at the top of the menu. I had to use startup-manager to restore my default. This appears to be buggy behavior to me, and appears to validate the OP's experience. I manually partitioned on the clean install of Beta 1 and specified ext3 for / instead of ext4.

[Bug 487446] [NEW] package grub-pc 1.97~beta4-1ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub2
Failed to merge grub.cfg after running update manager and getting the
latest kernal following a clean install of 9.10-AMD64 that followed a
Windows 7(32-bit) upgrade on dual boot Toshiba L305D-S5959 Laptop. Of
course the clean install was done in response to losing grub with the
Windows 7 32-bit upgrade. This was an easy fix on another system that
had Ubuntu 9.04 as the only previous system when installing Win 7 RC x64
to create another dual-booting system . Now I have no idea where this
stands yet. But looking at grub.cfg l don't really see the problem, but
I'm not bug hunting there tonight. I'll copy on the bottom of this post.
Haven't re-booted yet, but I'm betting it's okay.
This may just be a little bit of scary error trapping by somebody, and
not truly a bothersome bug.
Admittedly I'm trying to break things in Win 7 and Ubuntu both. FYI, I
have an MS TechNet Subscription for research purposes. But the Win7 32
upgrade was a Toshiba customized for their laptops as I purchased a new
laptop just last August. All I can say is grub-pc/grub2 certainly has
obfuscated the fix compared to the straightforward method before the
release of 9.10.

But I noticed the hald package is back in by default after updating my fresh install. -- Partitions not detected on install with 64-bit Live CD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225801 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 225801] [NEW] Partitions not detected on install with 64-bit Live CD
Public bug reported: Tried with blanked (DBAN) WD 160gb hard disk (nforce 3 chipset) first, no luck. Partitioned with Western Digital Tools CD (for XP SP 2,) twice, partitions still not detected, either with 80gb or 160gp primary partition. Partitioned whole disk successfully with Debian Etch 64-bit installer, but Ubuntu Installer still won't detect. Suggests a disconnect with graphical front-end in gparted. Running gparted separately from installer on Live CD yields same result, no partitions detected. This is a fresh install due to a motherboard swap. I'm trying to install from the alternate cd now. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Partitions not detected on install with 64-bit Live CD https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225801 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 131445] Re: Causes all gnome panels to disappear from screen right after drawing the panels when starting up desktop.
Got my Open GL back. And just deleting the non-free driver (1.0.7184) and its dependencies was all I needed to do. So it had nothing to do with me tweaking xorg.conf to use my wide screen in proper proportions. This may be a bug in gnome-panel too. I put another applet in the bottom panel as suggested above (120 high, max) with bottom placement. After restarting, the new bottom panel was at the top of the screen. May have something to do with marking the autohide box in panel properties. Applet was Dictionary, so I'm pretty sure this is a bug in gnome panel. Will report as such, but it's not serious. Since the handles were visible, I was able to open it and manipulate both the applet and the panel properties. The problem with Sherman's Aquarium is it doesn't apparently set limitations on finite dimensions in relation of the size of the screen it is on. When placed with a second applet in the bottom panel set to autohide and not expand, Sherman's Aqaurium worked until I exceeded the limits of my screen width (1360), but this time I got an error message that it unexpectedly quit and was able to continue without restarting the X server. So it has something to do with the applet not being able to determine its maximum width if the panel gets too wide (tall). I was trying to get a bigger applet window when this happened, with width to height ratio set at 20:1. I know that's unreasonable, but was just making it as big as possible. It's probably not worth fooling with. Only an experimenter like me who also knows how to recover from ridiculous errors will ever see this. -- Causes all gnome panels to disappear from screen right after drawing the panels when starting up desktop. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/131445 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 131445] Causes all gnome panels to disappear from screen right after drawing the panels when starting up desktop.
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: shermans-aquarium Ubuntu Feisty Fawn, 32-bit, Nvidia NV11DDR (GeForce 2 MX200 DDR, 32mb at 1360x768, 24 bit color Viewsonic N2751w, Athlon64 2800+, 512mb ram, PC Chips socket 754 mb, Via chipset(s) I'm not able to get OpenGL screensavers to work at all. They were working until I loaded the restricted Nvidia legacy glx (1.0.7184) driver, 2.6.20.5-16.29 modules. Otherwise, I'm not having any problems, but I'm not a heavy graphics user or game player. I tried to put Sherman's Aquarium on its own panel, horizontal at bottom of screen, and made the panel as wide (tall) as I could at the bottom of the screen. I adjusted the tank dimensions to give me a square tank as large as possible. The panel properties were: Orientation - Bottom Size - ? (I have a side panel that limited its vertical size, but I don't remember how much) Autohide and Show hide buttons were both ticked. Everything was okay until I logged out. X server is set to restart on log-out. When I logged back in, the two other panels aligned as usual where they had been before I added the third panel just for Sherman's. The third panel opened up at the top of the screen instead of the bottom, just below the top panel. It flickered repeatedly until finally all three gnome panels just disappeared. I recovered by uninstalling Sherman's via Synaptic. Problem may be related to Open GL not working properly. If I get that fixed and this happens again, I'll report again. If you haven't heard anything for two weeks or so, it probably means I'm still struggling with Open GL. I still don't know what I did. Putting back the default Nvidia driver doesn't help. There's probably something else fouled up in xorg.conf. ** Affects: shermans-aquarium (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Causes all gnome panels to disappear from screen right after drawing the panels when starting up desktop. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/131445 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
