[ubuntu-uk] Locking in the wireless drivers
Hi, You recall we talked about the hassle of having to re-install wireless drivers after every kernel update. I've noticed that neither of the Lenovo machines which I got from Linux Emporium suffers from this problem: they've both received multiple kernel updates. So I rang Linux Emporium to see if I could find out how they lock the wireless drivers in so effectively. What they said was that they use the Debian packages when converting the Lenovo machines to Ubuntu, and that these Debian packages contain the wherewithal to lock the wireless drivers in permanently. Does this make sense, and if so, could the relevant material be incorporated directly into Ubuntu?

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Locking in the wireless drivers
Hello, I do believe this depends on the card in use, some drivers have slightly different conditions compared to others. I know for example some modules recompile themselves when the kernel is updated. I'm confident Linux Emporium choose devices that work exceptionally well with Linux (or specifically Debian-derived distributions).

[ubuntu-uk] LibreOffice menu problem remains
So I am now running beta 2 of Raring, I guess, and LibreOffice's menus still are completely inaccessible via the keyboard. This is a really serious problem.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Locking in the wireless drivers
Debian (and thus Ubuntu) has the feature of DKMS which allows a package to flag to apt that it needs reconfiguring after a kernel update. AFAIK, dpkg will run the configure step of installation again for those so-flagged packages to give them a chance to recompile any kernel interfaces. The nvidia and fglrx (amd/ati) drivers, for example, utilise DKMS to recompile their shim between the binary proprietary driver and the gpl kernel to allow them to get away with not licensing their driver under the GPL (rant away over this pseudo-gpl-violation, please! :-p). DKMS requires the package maintainer to jump through some hoops, but once that's done the end-user experience is vastly improved.

I'm sorry, I should have named the outstanding Launchpad bugs. I was already subscribed to Bug #739184 and Bug #1085169. I have now subscribed to Bug #1064962 as well, but the description does not seem correct for me. It does not matter if I open a fresh copy of LO or double-click on a file let the program open. *Any* way I launch the program, the menus are inaccessible with the keyboard. Currently I am running Microsoft Word 97 under WINE so that I can use my machine! (Most of my work is writing.) I have not noticed any problem with keyboard menu access in any other apps, only LibreOffice. As per several comments with those bugs, this has been a problem in the past with the lo-menubar package and later with libreoffice-gtk - but if these were removed, one could use the menus, at the price of apps that didn't match the system theme. (On my netbook running Precise, remove libreoffice-gtk also makes dialog boxes much smaller so that they fit onto the 1024×768 screen, a beneficial side-effect.) But in Raring there is no GTK package to remove. I do not know of any other workaround. -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://lproven.livejournal.com/profile Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/G+/Twitter/Flickr/Facebook: lproven MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • Skype/AIM/Yahoo/LinkedIn: liamproven Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
