[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1641055] Re: startx, lightdm fail to start
After deleting the .Xauthority file, I can now successfully log into a Unity session. The problem seems to be gone (rebooting worked fine after this). Maybe somebody can figure out how I got into this situation, but otherwise the bug can be closed as far as I'm concerned. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1641055 Title: startx, lightdm fail to start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1641055/+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 1641055] Re: startx, lightdm fail to start
If I *remove* xserver-xorg-video-intel, lightdm is able to show me the login screen. However, there is corruption on the screen and trying to log into a Unity or Gnome session just shows a blank screen and then puts me back into the login screen after 1 second. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1641055 Title: startx, lightdm fail to start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/1641055/+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 1641055] [NEW] startx, lightdm fail to start
Public bug reported: After updating from 16.04 to 16.10, lightdm doesn't start. Adding 'nomodeset' for booting allows it to start, but apparently lacks all acceleration. Trying different kernels doesn't help, including the one from 16.04. Sorry for brevity, I'm writing this on my phone...

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1315938] Re: Lost screen
I effectively reported this problem a long time ago. Since that time, I tried about a dozen different versions of Linux distributions. With Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu or Lubuntu, the problem happens about every 2 hours, sometimes more often. I tried LXLE and it happen less often, about every 10 to 12 hours of use. The most stable distribution, the one that I use now, is Gnome Wheezy. With it, the same problem happen from time to time. The first time after about one month of use. And anything from 3 hours, to 2 or 3 days, or 2 weeks between lost screen problem.I can live with that. I am 99,9% sure that the problem is a material one, since my graphic card is not supported by any Linux distribution.I will not do any additionnal test and I will install a new graphic card soon.

Penalver christopher.m.penal...@gmail.com a écrit : Remi, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xorg 1315938 Please ensure you have xdiagnose installed, and that you click the Yes button for attaching additional debugging information. As well, given the information from the prior release is already available, testing a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1315938] Re: Lost screen
What I say you about my graphic card is what Forum members on Ubuntu-fr.org told me: My graphic card is no more supported and they suggest I replace it. I know nothing about repairing computers. I am used to open it and go on Windows with no problems. The problem arose with my first try with Linux and I asked for help on a french forum since this is my native language.

Swâmi, We've all laid out these arguments many times over. Yes, this issue is frustrating (and I regret having vented some of my own frustration in my first comments) but let's keep it civil. There are proposed solutions. I, for one, think Andreas' proposal is the best way out of the current dead lock as it would allow each and everyone of us to configure the fr-oss layout the way we want it.

I'm at a loss as to what to do to help find a solution for everyone. fr-oss is a great layout with many useful improvements over fr-latin9, but the missing ControlR is a deal breaker. I'm personally back to using the default fr layout and I'll advise users to do the same if they want their ControlR back. @Ubuntu users listening in through Launchpad: use whatever control panel you have to select a layout that doesn't have the words Alternative or variante.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1013881]
(In reply to comment #60) Gentlemen, I am really stuck at that point. Allow me to sum it up. - Nicolas is the sole advocate of having Control_R mapped to Level5. - The rest of us want to go back to having both left and right Control behaving the same way. I'm not quite sure how you want us to organize a vote or poll. French Linux users (just like non-French ones) use a variety of distributions (which, BTW, may not ship the changed version of xkeyboard-config), and may not even all use a French keyboard (I'd say roughly half of my Linux-using friends and coworkers are using US qwerty layouts or mac layouts). Since apparently no hardware maker is following ISO standards, may I suggest creating new layouts such as oss-iso with Nicolas' changes? As one of Gentoo's X11 maintainers, I am really tempted to just revert that change downstream. The few French users I have talked to were just as surprised as I was to lose their Control_R key for no apparent reason. I could organize a poll on my blog but being aggregated only on Planet Gentoo, I wouldn't give much credit to any numbers I could find. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1013881 Title: Right-Ctrl key broken on French OSS keyboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xkeyboard-config/+bug/1013881/+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 221112]
For some reason, I found myself using the 'fr oss' layout in Gnome 3.10. And I must say that finding out that this layout was picked as the default left me speechless: two keys on my keyboard no longer behave according to what's *on* the actual key: - the right control key, which just says Ctrl, just like its left counterpart, - and the keypad's del/dot key which has an actual dot on it, not a comma Both of those changes are incomprehensible. Whether *alternative* layouts exist to provide new mappings is of no issue to me. But a layout touted as the default layout should respect what's *engraved* on keyboards. FTR, the original 'fr' layout also has that keypad dot/comma issue but not the right control mapped to Level5, but at least there's an kpdl:dot option to fix the former. So I fumbled through Gnome's ever- changing control panel and managed to change back to it. (In reply to comment #46) For me it does. My keyboard has an Alt Gr label on the AltR key, so it indeed is expected to behave differently from Alt_L, but my ControlR key is labeled as Ctrl, just like the ControlL key. And all other keyboards and OSes I ever used did handle ControlR the same as ControlL, as far as I was concerned as a user. +1, all the French PC keyboards I have owned for the past 15 years have been like this. I can only add my voice to let it be known that having to fix my keyboard layout for correct operation was quite upsetting. Anyhow, thanks to all for looking into it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/221112 Title: Can't use space bar in search bar when using french alternative keyboard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libgnomekbd/+bug/221112/+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 303697] Re: [RV730XT] [fglrx] video tearing / vsync problems - independent of compiz use
More information: If Vsync is enabled in Catalyst control centre, and gl video output is used, then video does not tear, *as long as desktop effects are not enabled*. It appears as though compiz prevents vsync from working. I don't know if this bug should be filed against compiz, or remain with the fglrx driver. -- [RV730XT] [fglrx] video tearing / vsync problems - independent of compiz use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303697 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in ubuntu. ___ 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 303697] Re: [RV730XT] [fglrx] video tearing / vsync problems - independent of compiz use
I can confirm that XV output in karmic and flgrx still tears. I can use gl output, but that corrupts the video in interesting ways when using Compiz (seems to work well without compiz). However, if not using Compiz, I get perfect XV video output with the open source drivers. -- [RV730XT] [fglrx] video tearing / vsync problems - independent of compiz use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303697 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to fglrx-installer in ubuntu. ___ 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
