[Bug 313231] Re: Backlight control doesn't work anymore on thinkpad

2009-04-10 Thread David Ho
This bug affects me too, but I can confirm that Michael's workaround works for 
me.
I have the same system as Michael (R61, with Intel X3100 graphics).

Before applying Sebastian's workaround, nothing would change the
backlight brightness: not the function keys (Fn+Home and Fn+End), not
even gnome-power-manager. The backlight brightness did not reduce on
battery power, either.

Hitting the function keys would update the on-screen brightness
indicator (although there was a very long delay between keypress and
update.) However, the actual brightness of my screen was unchanged.

This problem only occurred after upgrading to Intrepid for me.

After applying the workaround, everything works as it should. =)

[Bug 1609942] [NEW] internal pdf viewer distorts document

2016-08-04 Thread David Ho
Public bug reported:

Just upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04 running in VMplayer, texmaker now depends on 
Qt5 and it is squeezing the document in the vertical direction when viewed 
using internal viewer.  Evince displays the document fine.  
This has not been a problem with texmaker in 14.04.

Can you suggest a workaround in the meantime? (e.g. reverting to a
texmaker in 14.04)

[Bug 320700] Re: gvim rendering is slow

2016-11-04 Thread David Ho
I have the same issue with stock gvim 7.4 in Ubuntu 16.04(Xenial)
running on VMWare 12.5.0 player with Windows 10 host.

Paging up/down (ctrl-b,ctrl-f) is very slow. Almost a 100x slow down.
