I can confirm as well that lightdm v1.2.3-0ubuntu2.7 has indeed fixed
this issue for me.  Thank you for the quick turnaround!

[Bug 1431654] Re: lightdm (1.2.3-0ubuntu2.6) 100%/high cpu usage

2015-03-15 Thread timothymowens
I may not be doing this correctly, but I ran the following to attempt to
debug the running lightdm process using the package from the precise
proposed ppa again.  The command I ran is:

sudo gdb lightdm 24513

Of course, 24513 was the running lightdm process.  Interesting thing
here is, once gdb output debug info, the process stopped utilizing 100%
of my cpu.  Once I quit gdb, the process started utilizing 100% of a cpu
core once again.

If it helps, the debug output is in the attached file.

2015-03-15 Thread timothymowens
To add to comment #17, just now I replaced my empty 09_close_pipes.patch
file with the actual patch, then rebuilt, installed and restarted the
lightdm process.  Upon logging in, it's back to using 100% of a cpu core
again.  So when the 09 patch is removed, no high cpu usage.  When the
patch is put back in, cpu usage is high again.

2015-03-15 Thread timothymowens
Hi Robert,

While I am a developer, I don't have much experience developing in Linux
or using Bazaar (bzr).  With that being said, I wasn't exactly sure how
to disable a patch per say, so what I did was backed up
09_close_pipes.patch by moving it to my desktop, then issuing touch
09_close_pipes.patch to create a blank file with the same name.  I then
built the package and installed it.  After restarting lightdm, I have no
CPU issues any longer.  So it would seem that the bug is indeed in
09_close_pipes.patch.

I hope this helps.  I'll see if I can wrap my head around gdb to see if
I can provide any more information.

2015-03-14 Thread timothymowens
FYI, in case there are some lesser experienced users that have this
issue and are looking for a temporary solution for the time being, below
are the instructions to revert to the previous release of lightdm until
this gets resolved.

You can do this with the following command in a terminal (CTRL + ALT +
T):

sudo apt-get install lightdm=1.2.3-0ubuntu2.5

Then to kill the current lightdm session and start a new one using the
previous released version, log out, then press CTRL + ALT + F1.  Log
into the fullscreen terminal session.  Then type the following:

sudo service lightdm stop

sudo service lightdm start

Then to close the terminal session, press CTRL + ALT + F1 once again,
type exit, then CTRL + ALT + F7 to return to your lightdm session.
After that, you can log in and you're back to normal.

I also locked the lightdm package after reverting back for the time
being so that I don't accidentally reinstall the broken version by doing
the following in a terminal:

sudo echo lightdm hold | dpkg --set-selections

Once this gets fixed or a new version is released later on, you can
release the lock/hold with the following command in a terminal:

sudo echo lightdm install | dpkg --set-selections

Hope that helps!

Also, an addendum to the previous instructions, the Ubuntu repo that has
version 1.2.3-0ubuntu2.5 of lightdm is the precise-updates repo.  To add
that repository, do the following:

From terminal:

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Add the following lines to the end of your file:

## Ubuntu Update Repos
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates main restricted 
universe multiverse
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise-updates main

Save changes, close the file, then run the following from Terminal:

sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get install lightdm=1.2.3-0ubuntu2.5

Here is the lightdm log file pulled from /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log.
At 98.76s, I logged out of my session, but didn't get a log-in screen
again (black screen on both monitors).

At this point I killed the process (28882) so that I could downgrade
lightdm again (from ctrl+alt+F1) and log back in.

Not sure if it's applicable, but the log that was generated was with
kernel version 3.2.0-19-generic running.  Also, the proprietary graphics
driver I'm running at the moment is Nvidia v340.76.  I also tested with
v340.65 but still ran into the 100% cpu usage with the newest proposed
lightdm service.

[Bug 1150414] Re: libtorrent-rasterbar.so.6 error in Ubuntu 12.10

2013-04-11 Thread timothymowens
I'm running 12.04.02 AMD64.  I upgraded qBittorrent to v3.0.9 today and
started to get this error myself.  The only thing that seemed to work
was to revert libtorrent-rasterbar6 to version 0.15.10-1.

apt-get install libtorrent-rasterbar6=0.15.10-1

Before doing this, when I got the following results:

$ ls -al /usr/lib/*raster*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  29 Mar 10  2012 /usr/lib/libtorrent-rasterbar.so.7 
- libtorrent-rasterbar.so.7.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2708896 Mar 10  2012 
/usr/lib/libtorrent-rasterbar.so.7.0.0

After, I get this:

$ ls -al /usr/lib/*raster*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  29 Mar 10  2012 /usr/lib/libtorrent-rasterbar.so.6 
- libtorrent-rasterbar.so.6.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2708896 Mar 10  2012 
/usr/lib/libtorrent-rasterbar.so.6.0.0

I'm not sure which PPA installed a newer version of this, but it had
something to do with miro.  Downgrading libtorrent-rasterbar6 caused
miro packages to be removed.  Not a big deal, I never used miro much any
way.  Somehow I think I ended up with version 0.16.3-0ubuntu1 of
libtorrent-rasterbar6 which is from 12.10.

So if you are on Ubuntu 12.10 and are getting this problem, try the
following:

apt-get install libtorrent-rasterbar6=0.16.3-0ubuntu1

Might work for you the way it did for me.

[Bug 733349] Re: Minimize Application's Windows upon clicking its Launcher Icon

2011-10-13 Thread timothymowens
I would also like to see an option to be able to minimize with a single-
click.  Let's face it, the Unity Launcher is a dock.  All 3rd party
docks that are used in Ubuntu have a single click minimize, Mac OS X has
a single-click minimize, Windows has always had a single-click minimize
for their task bar, and even the 3rd party dock apps in Windows have a
single-click minimize.  As a multi-OS user, I get frustrated when this
doesn't happen in Unity.  Unity is about usability, but this detail is
being ignored.  I've read the reasons here for not allowing this, but I
don't feel they are valid enough to not at least include the option to
minimize with a single-click.

Please, please, please add this.

[Bug 668392] Re: HP blu-ray drive gets softreset failed errors on 64 bit but not 32 bit

2011-01-04 Thread timothymowens
I tried the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=libata.force=5:nohrst in my
/etc/default/grub file and rebuilding grub with update-grub2, but saw no
change.  dmesg still reported the exact same softreset issues.  This was
with me putting a disc in the drive at boot and having tried under IDE,
ACHI and RAID.  Still nothing.  Wish this was a solution for my issue.

It's frustrating because this CH20L drive works perfectly in Windows 7
64 bit for burning DVD/CD, blu-ray read, etc., just not in 64 bit Linux.
I've tried Ubuntu, Fedora, Mint, Mandriva, Sabayon, etc.  Nothing.  No
power to the drive even.  Once Ubuntu boots fully, the drive has no
power and the button does not eject the tray.  It doesn't seem that it's
being addressed upstream at all either.  I keep trying newer and newer
kernel builds and the issue persists.  No issues with 32 bit Linux
though.  Drive works great in 32 bit Ubuntu 10.10 as well as other
distros.

Any other suggestions?

Nevermind.  Please disregard my last comment.  Markus Feist, you are
AWESOME!  It was my fault that your grub mod wasn't working for me as I
forgot that on my board, there is no sata-0 and that it starts at 1,
once I adjusted, my CH20L blu-ray drive started working and Ubuntu
booted just as fast as it did with the drive disabled.

THANK YOU!

Now if only this could be the default action on a clean install in
future Ubuntu AMD64 releases...

2011-01-04 Thread timothymowens
BTW, my SATA controller is set to RAID mode and the grub modifier
worked.  My blu-ray drive is set on the 3rd port now, so the grub mod I
used is:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=libata.force=3:nohrst

On my board, the port numbers start with 1 and not 0 like most boards
do.  I added this line to my /etc/default/grub (actually
/etc/default/burg in my case), ran a sudo update-burg (sudo update-grub
or sudo update-grub2 if you are not using BURG) and rebooted.

Voila!  Markus's magic is working.

I couldn't find the image file for the current build, so I installed and
tested the next best thing and attached the dmesg output to this
comment.  No change in the bug/issue.  This kernel took even longer to
boot than the others.  If you know of the links to the current kernel
image and headers that will install in Maverick AMD64, please post the
link here and I will test.

Hope this helps.  Incidentally, this kernel also breaks my ATI drivers,
but I was able to fix this easily myself.

I attempted to rebuild the amd64 2.6.35 kernel that comes with Maverick
with CONFIG_SATA_PMP = n, but I the build failed with errors.  I've
never compiled a kernel before, so it's very likely I missed something
or didn't do something correctly.  If someone could build the current
amd64 kernel that comes stock with Maverick with CONFIG_SATA_PMP = n and
post it, I'd be happy to test.

2010-11-05 Thread timothymowens
OK.  I managed to compile the 2.6.35 kernel following this guide:
http://duopetalflower.blogspot.com/2010/10/ubuntu-maverick-64bit-
kernel.html  I only set CONFIG_SATA_PMP = n and compiled a kernel aptly
called 2.6.35-22-nopmp.  Yet, it seems that this did not fix the issue.
It did provide some different information regarding the softreset issue
though; more specifically, note the COMRESET failed (errno=-16).  I
attached the entire dmesg log from booting this custom kernel for
reference.

[7.244210] ata3: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0)

I'm out of ideas now.  If anyone has any ideas to try, my machine will

2010-11-03 Thread timothymowens
OK.  I can confirm that this issue is related to 64 bit Linux distros
only.  I tried a few different 32 bit Linux distros via LiveCD,
including 32 bit Ubuntu 10.10 and all of them detected the blu-ray drive
and started up almost instantly.  I checked dmesg on all of them and not
one showed the soft reset issue that the 64 bit distros show.  What does
this mean?  Is there a way to incorporate the 32 bit SATA handling in
the 64 bit kernels?  What's different with the 64 bit handling of SATA
vs the 32 bit?  I really need the 64 bit OS as I commonly perform tasks
that require more than 4GB of RAM, but it would be nice if my blu-ray
drive worked as well.

I just attempted booting up kernel 2.6.37-999 as well (daily build Nov.
3rd 2011) using the following packages and SATA port 3 enabled:

linux-image-2.6.37-999-generic_2.6.37-999.201011031118_amd64.deb

03-Nov-2010 12:25   777K

(Again, SATA port 3 being the blu-ray drive).  Still had soft reset
issues.  This kernel was different though.  X didn't load, so I
generated a new dmesg log file from command line and attached it.  What
I noticed though is that as I was attempting to log in, more soft resets
were being performed, even though they failed before and displayed the
giving up message.  Then I see in the dmesg that a hard reset was
being performed.  The last line states EH complete.  Not sure what
that means though.  Any thoughts?

HP BDDVDRW CH20L.  For the record, I tried booting more than one recent
Linux distro with the BIOS set to IDE, AHCI, and RAID.  The issue occurs
with all three scenarios.  This drive is SATA and has no jumpers.  If
you google, CH20L Linux, you will see this is becoming a growing issue
as of late.  The issue only occurs with newer Linux x64 kernels it
seems.  The drive works perfectly in Windows.  Any help in getting this
blu-ray drive working in Ubuntu 64 bit is greatly appreciated.

[Bug 668392] [NEW] Missing blu-ray drive support causes restart/shutdown problems and delays

2010-10-29 Thread timothymowens
Public bug reported:

When attempting to install Ubuntu 10.10 AMD64 on my HP Pavilion Elite
HPE-235f, booting of the LiveCD fails.  I get the same bug reported in
the post at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1052987 (see
screenshots).  I installed Ubuntu 10.10 AMD64 via flash drive, but
booting took much longer than it normally should.  Shutting down was
another problem all together.  Upon shut down, Ubuntu freezes, and never
actually shuts down.  When restarting, my BIOS freezes completely when
it should be bringing up the storage controller information on the
screen, displaying the storage devices on SATA ports found, but it
doesn't.  It will just freeze for up to 10 minutes, until the storage
controller posts, but without any found drives.  Then I get a GRUB
error.  Forcing a shutdown and then turning the machine back on fixes
the problem.  Then an odd issue occurred.  When in Ubuntu, I needed to
use a dvd, yet upon pressing the physical eject button on the drive,
nothing happened.  It was like the drive was completely turned off or
lacked power.  I rebooted into Windows and the drive worked fine, but
same behavior in Ubuntu every time.  Now I have actually been able to
pinpoint the problems I've had with Ubuntu on this new machine.  After
seeing the following in dmesg:

[ 11.810854] ata3: softreset failed (device not ready)
[ 21.820854] ata3: softreset failed (device not ready)
[ 32.430018] ata3: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0)
[ 56.850018] ata3: softreset failed (device not ready)
[ 56.850022] ata3: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps
[ 62.080018] ata3: softreset failed (device not ready)
[ 62.080020] ata3: reset failed, giving up

I realized that this must be an issue with the SATA blu-ray drive that
comes in the newer HP machines.  As you can see, this issue delayed my
boot time by approx 51 seconds.  This was a faster than normal delay as
it usually was much longer.  I disabled SATA port 3 in BIOS and
restarted.  Problem solved...  sort of.  The machine boots smoothly and
fast, shutdown and restart works properly, no lag spikes with general
Ubuntu usage any longer.  Only, now I don't have a workable DVD/CD/BD
drive and can't burn discs, etc.

I'm reporting this as a kernel bug because I really don't know what else to 
report it under as this seems to be an apparent lack of driver for this blu-ray 
drive.  This will probably be a very popular machine as the price is very, very 
nice; meaning this will need to get fixed to provide support for the masses.  
The sudo lspci -vnvn report displayed below may not be of much help with this 
issue as the port the drive is connected to is disabled in BIOS, so device 
specifics relating to the drive are not displayed.  The model of blu-ray drive 
taken from Windows 7 Device Manager: hp BDDVDRW CH20L SCSI CdRom Device.  The 
drive is indeed SATA.  The motherboard BIOS ships with RAID turned ON by 
default; mine is still enabled.  Not sure if that has anything to do with it.  
The machine has an AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1035T Processor, AMD chipset, AMD raid 
controller, and ATI HD 5570 video card.  For more information about this
