[Bug 579014] Re: Install Problem The configuration defaults for Gnome Power Management have been installed incorrectly

2010-05-14 Thread Einar Petersen
The solution was a disk cleanup as I suspected, took me some time to get
my hands on media large enough to hold the data.

Seems like the new Ubuntu has gained quite some weight since my last
install and in vanilla it takes up several gig more than my fully
populated (program wise) previous system. Can't help but wonder, to
others in similar situation boot a live disk, install midnight
commander, open a terminal, sudo mc and then to work. It could solve
your problem.

But for the love of. Change the error message, it had nothing, and I
STRESS NOTHING to do with:


Install Problem The configuration defaults for Gnome Power Management have been 
installed incorrectly

It was a disk space problem

A hint in the error message, like You might be experiencing problems
due to extremely low free space on your drive! could help some people

[Bug 579014] [NEW] Install Problem The configuration defaults for Gnome Power Management have been installed incorrectly

2010-05-11 Thread Einar Petersen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: plymouth

After a disk space warning I cannot get into the Gnome desktop upon
boot, I keep getting the boot in screen, choose user name and type
password, but end up back in the boot in menu with a black warning sign
in the corner saying The configuration defaults for Gnome Power
Management are installed incorrectly please contact your computer
administrator hrmph I though those kind of useless error messages
had died out a long time ago. Anyway I had experienced something similar
way back when that was fixed by creating more space on the drive, so I
got my hands on the live CD and started making room on the 39 GB
partition, I am now up to 3% of free space, but I still get the same
message, so no luck there. As I do not have my backup media here, it is
traveling with my better half, I am kind of stuck in a pickle, I could
splash out on an extra disk, or possibly move another 2Gb into the
cloud, but I cannot be sure that helps. Good ideas are welcome. The
system is a Compaq HP nx6310, 512 Mb RAM.

[Bug 117580] Re: Wireless gone at upgrade to kernel 2.6.20-16-generic

2008-12-05 Thread Einar Petersen
This occurs on every kernel upgrade - try going to the System menu
point, choose Restricted drivers Manager, then enable the restricted
driver - either choose the driver on your disk if you have it or choose
to download it from the net.

This bug is really beginning to annoy me in connection with upgrading
the kernel To Canonical can you please fix it so you use either the
same driver that is already working with the previous kernel or warn
people things may get screwy and instruct them on the above fix so we
don't keep seeing this problem crop up all over the web!

[Bug 242876] Re: lost wireless after upgrading to 2.6.24-19

2008-12-05 Thread Einar Petersen
Actually just had the same problem upgrading the kernel yesterday (not
the first time this has happened either) - Wrote a little howto and put
it on my site:

HOWTO fix wireless card using restricted drivers in Linux (Ubuntu)
http://einarpetersen.com/doku.php?id=howto_-_reenable_wireless

But back to the questions posed

Running Gutsy

uname -a
Linux laptop 2.6.22-16-generic #1 SMP Mon Nov 24 18:28:27 GMT 2008 i686 
GNU/Linux

Is the latest kernel upgrade

dmesg - just comes up with a load of suppressed messages, however
following my howto I got it working again, hope others can do the same.

install_bcm43xx_firmware.sh is present in my usr/share directory
/bcm43xx-fwcutter directory and bcm43xx_microcode11.fw is present in
/lib/firmware

Let me know if you need any other input.

[Bug 241917] Re: Wireless does not work under new kernel XX-15 - but works fine under latestkernel XX-14 - Distro 7.10 - Gutsy Gibbon

2008-06-27 Thread Einar Petersen
Setting problem as confirmed as there is a fix and using the method
sorted the  problem out - I hope however that someone fixes this pretty
soon as I believe it can have a serious backlash on linux uptake.
Problems like this can overshadow the user experience for novice users.
Had I not used Linux myself for a period of time something like this
would have ticked me off in a serious way, at least I had some patience
and an idea of what went wrong after thinking about it and could solve
the problem.

Did you try the other treads - A whole bunch on wireless problems in
connection with upgrades. For me plugging into the wire, ticking off the
use restricted drivers in the Restricted Drivers Management Gui found
under Administration did the trick - Asked to download the driver
suggested.

And voila - I can see my AP again and use my wireless, but this needs to
be looked at so it doesn't disable peoples network cards / unselects use
restricted drivers, not all people are lucky enough to be in a place
where they can just plug in to fix the problem.

Got the same problem - I am however not anywhere near a wired connection
so I will wait till I get home to put a (v) check in the restricted
drivers management gui, I can luckily see the BCM43xx driver in my
management utility - or I'll search my disk for the already installed
driver...

Found a wire and plugged in - Now the lights come on during boot - All
to do now is finding an access point and then try it out.

This is however competely uacceptible and many people would dismiss
Linux/ubuntu altogether if this happened and they couldn't find a
solution within the first few seconds.
