[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 967091] Re: Wrong tint in flash when it uses video acceleration
MC Reezy, did you apply one of the workarounds? You may need to remove libvdpau1 and reinstall the Ubuntu version. I followed what pst007x (turone) wrote on 2012-04-02. He provided the link to: http://askubuntu.com/questions/117127/flash-video-appears-blue. The fix at the top involves adding a repository "ppa:tikhonov/misc" to use a special patched version of libvdpau1. To revert back to the Ubuntu libvdpau1, I disabled the repository and then followed the steps to enable proposed updates. Here's what I did: Open Update Manager. Click on "Settings", then click on the "Other Software" tab. Uncheck (or remove) the tikhonov repository. Remove libvdpau1 at the command line with "sudo apt-get remove libvdpau1". Check that flash videos (e.g. YouTube) are "blue" again. Open Update Manager. Click on "Settings", then click on the "Updates" tab. Check the checkbox next to "Pre-released updates (precise-proposed)". Close Software Sources. At Update Manager, click on "Check". There should be about 59 or so updates that come up. If you just want libvdpau1, unselect all the updates by clicking the box next to proposed, then look for libvdpau1 in the list and check it. Click install updates. Once the update(s) is installed, you can go back to software sources and deselect proposed updates. Check that flash videos (e.g. YouTube) are fixed. Of course, if you applied a different fix, you will have to follow different steps to undo what you did. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to libvdpau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967091 Title: Wrong tint in flash when it uses video acceleration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libvdpau/+bug/967091/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1479913] Re: SRU request: fglrx.ko fails because of backported GPL-only 'pci_ignore_hotplug' symbol
I updated to the 3.19.0-26 kernel today and the fglrx-core package failed to install when dkms tried to install it. Switching to the fglx packages here in the proposed branch solved my issue. It would seem that these packages need to be promoted from the proposed branch since others will have issues with upgrading to the kernel. (Booting to the old kernel did not work. I guess that when the dkms failed to run for the new kernel, it also didn't run for the old kernel.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer-updates in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1479913 Title: SRU request: fglrx.ko fails because of backported GPL-only 'pci_ignore_hotplug' symbol To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/1479913/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1493888] Re: FGLRX incompatible with gcc 5
Thanks Philip. The link to Ubuntu 15.10 boot hangs when starting lightdm helped me too. I had my system set to auto login to my user account but I could not log out or disable the auto login without having lightdm hang on startup. Now I can logout again! According to that link, in the Ubuntu 15.10 release notes, they said to uninstall fglrx before upgrading to 15.10. That would have avoided the problem lightdm hanging. I still have an issue where Ctrl-Alt-F1 to F6 do not work for me when fglrx is installed but that is probably a separate issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1493888 Title: FGLRX incompatible with gcc 5 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-notes/+bug/1493888/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
