[Bug 249156] Re: KDE 4.1 rc - Dolphin 4 crashs browsing directories with video-files

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I have been going around in circles with the KDE developers regarding
this problem.

We have confirmed that this problem is NOT a bug in KDE 4.1, it's a bug
in Strigi. The problem is that Ubuntu hasn't packaged the version of
Strigi that was made to be used with KDE 4.1, instead, the version of
Strigi that is included isn't compatible with KDE 4.1.

The Ubuntu developers should upgrade to Strigi 0.5.11 right away. d

The bug report, which all developers should read is here:
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=164296

Here are some quotes from that bug report from the KDE developers:
---
"You can update up to KDE 4.5 (exagerating), but it won't change the situation.
The bug was in strigi, so what you need to upgrade is *strigi*, at least the 
version 0.5.11."
---
"Disabling Strigi indexing won't prevent KDE from using libstreams and 
libstreamanalyser (which are parts of Strigi).

Once again, this bug was fixed in Strigi. If you still experience it, report it 
to your distribution. That only means they didn't include the patches in Strigi 
0.5.9 or that Strigi wasn't updated to 0.5.11."
---
"Dolphin uses libstreamanalyzer to get metadata out of files. libstreamanalyzer 
is part of strigi. Version 0.5.9 of strigi has a bug that causes a crash when 
analyzing some avi files. This is fixed in 0.5.11 which was released to be used 
with KDE 4.1.

A workaround is to delete strigita_avi.so if you have a strigi version older 
than 0.5.11."
---

I am urging whomever is in charge of Strigi to upgrade it in Ubuntu 8.04
(or any affected system).

Re: [Bug 192888] Re: firefox crashes on flash contents when using libflashsupport

[Jeremy LaCroix]

Has anything changed recently?

I reported a while ago that something made this bug happen much more 
common for me.

Now, as of today, it's even worse, as EVERY flash video with sound 
freezes Firefox beyond control. 64-bit here.

Thank you, but I'm not installing anything from other repositories or 
packages not in the repositories, I'm keeping my installation of Ubuntu 
to what the Ubuntu devs put in the default repositories, because I want 
to make sure this is fixed without having to go through hoops.

I'm hoping an update comes in on its own soon to fix all these issues.

In regards to:

sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/NetworkManager /etc/rc6.d/K40NetworkManager

Pleae correct me if I'm wrong, but that seems like a bad idea if someone 
has both Ubuntu and Kubuntu installed. Wouldn't that make it so that you 
get Knetworkmanager in both Gnome and KDE? Please let me know.

Broken bioses? I don't understand, nor agree that all the people having 
this problem have a broken bios. (Especially considering that this 
problem is new and previous Ubuntu releases didn't have this problem on 
the same hardware).

If this is a broken bios problem, are you suggesting we all exchange our 
computers at the store or get replacement parts?

If I'm misunderstanding, I apologize in advance.

If the problem is the bios, are you saying that they are all factory 
defects, or that a shortcut was taken when they were set up at the factory?

[Bug 339313] Re: Kubuntu Jaunty: Cannot Connect To Wireless Network with WEP shared key

[Jeremy LaCroix]

Honestly, I've given up on this. The very fact that Kubuntu 9.04 was
released with such a HUGE bug further proves the third wheel status of
this distro. Ubuntu would never have been allowed out the door with such
a problem.

I could have used wicd all along and had this work, however I kept the
network manager plasmoid instead because I wanted to do my part with
testing and maybe find a way to fix it. Now, I am using wicd and I've
also given up on the fact that anything will ever be done about it. Even
if a fixed package was released, the reputation of Kubuntu has already
been tarnished and it will take a while for it to be repaired.

Kubuntu 9.04 was appalling overall, especially the network manager bug.
Sure, I didn't pay anything for Kubuntu, but in Kubuntu 8.10 this worked
fine and I don't feel holding off on including a package that barely
works was too much to ask for. (There is no excuse for regressions,
ever). This problem isn't even a bug, but an error in judgement in
whomever maintains this release.

I am hoping Kubuntu 9.10 returns to the good old days when quality
releases were put out. Until then, I am going to unsubscribe from this
bug tomorrow. All of my efforts in working to test this and get it to
work, and all of the work everyone else put into it was clearly for
nothing. As many hours as I have put into trying to fix this problem or
finding a way around it that works, I just want to wash my hands of it
now.

I reinstalled Kubuntu, and I thought that after this much time, the

already is so there is nothing to lose.

RE: [Bug 282010] Re: Intrepid: Full Screen OpenGL Games Not Working With Intel Video Card

[Jeremy LaCroix]

This issue was established to be due to desktop effects not suspending
while OpenGL games are running. As far as I know this has not been
corrected, it needs to be set up so that when OpenGL games run, desktop
effects pause so as not to drop performance. There is an option within
GNOME but I forget what it was called. If it was set to enabled by
default it would be an easy solve.

Re: [Bug 317781] Re: Ext4 data loss

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I never had any trouble, but I installed Jaunty last week, after the fix 
was released. Is it possible this bug now only affects those that 
installed it prior to the fix? When did you guys install it?

I've moved over 100GB of files since I installed it. I had at least two 
hard crashes, everything seems to be intact.

I've not experienced the bug yet, though I've not had a chance to try 
the script yet.

I was wondering if anyone knows of a terminal command I could run that 
would give me a list of all the files on my system that are 0 KB. As far 
as I know, I've never experienced this, but then again it may have 
happened to a file I don't use often. I don't care if I lose anything 
since I have everything backed up but a command to list files that may 
have been effected would be nice if anyone knows.

[Bug 334624] [NEW] Thunderbird doesn't synchronize IMAP until the program is closed

[Jeremy LaCroix]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: thunderbird

I'm using 64-bit Jaunty Kubuntu on two machines. I use an IMAP account
because it's important to me that I have the same email on both
machines.

While I was using Intrepid, changes to my email happened immediately.
For example, if I had both machines running with thunderbird open on
both, if I deleted an email on one, it would be deleted on the other.
Now, in order for the changes on one Thunderbird to propogate to the
other I have to close Thunderbird. As soon as I do, all the changes I've
made propogate to the other thunderbird and then on my webmail.

The first thing I did was call my email support number, and they reset
my account and that didn't fix it. They said no configuration changed,
so it must be Thunderbird.

Another example is if I have Thunderbird open and webmail open in
Firefox, then I delete an email in Thunderbird, the email isn't deleted
in webmail. Once I close Thunderbird, the changes I've made to my
messages then appear in webmail. For whatever reason, Thunderbird does
something when it closes to synchronize, instead of in real time.

Re: [Bug 339313] Re: Kubuntu Jaunty: Cannot Connect To Wireless Network with WEP shared key

[Jeremy LaCroix]

The updated package worked for me too, but not *exactly* as expected.

1.) I updated the package and then rebooted.
2.) I then clicked on the network manager and then clicked on my network
3.) I entered in all of the secret info and clicked okay
4.) It then said that it was connecting
5.) Another window came up asking for my secret info again
6.) It didn't remember anything I typed so I typed it all again
7.) After I typed my secret info, the same window came up asking for the 
details again.
8.) Before I was able to enter in the details, I got a message saying 
that I was connected

In my opinion, the goal now is to make it only ask for the wireless info 
ONCE. When the second and subsequent windows come up asking for the 
data, it makes the user think they entered in the data wrong, even 
though they didn't. At least I'm connected though!

kwalletmanager it asks for a master password each time and I prefer not

I filed this bug for WEP, not WPA2. This should work in the final 
release, especially since it worked before. In my tests, the new network 
manager can't connect to ANYTHING that takes a password, it's completely 
useless in every regard. I hope that it's removed at the last minute 
altogether or fixed, having a non-working network manager by default in 
a stable release doesn't strike me as making sense.

[Bug 378394] [NEW] KDE Crashes Whenever I Edit A Text File with Sudo

[Jeremy LaCroix]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdm

I am using 64-bit Jaunty Kubuntu. Ever since upgrading to 4.2.3, I can
predictably crash my machine by editing a single text file. I discovered
this while attempting to update my sources.list file.

I ran the following command:

sudo kate /etc/apt/sources.list

Once I done that, a dialog box came up that said:

"Could not start ksmserver. Check your installation."

If I click "okay" on that dialog box, I am dumped right back to the KDM
login screen. If I do not click okay, I can continue using my machine
normally without problems.

I can repeat this error with 100% accuracy.

I don't understand, whether you're supposed to do something or not
doesn't matter as Linux is about choice. Besides, this is something that
has always worked fine for Kubuntu's entire existence and is only broken
now, so why is it "invalid"?

Since this was broken as of KDE 4.2.3, this is a regression. Regardless
of politics, there is no excuse for a regression.

With all due respect, sudo working in every version of KDE from KDE 3.5
onwards is not a coincidence. This is a regression. Whether or not I am
supposed to be doing this, if it's a good idea, or if it breaks other
things is irrelevant, something broke and all regressions may affect
other things. I highly urge you to look into this further before passing
it off.

This has nothing to do with KDE, it's to do with sudo and how it works.
kdesudo makes sure it sets up the correct environment for running GUI
applications. If it worked for you in 4.2.2 then that is just a
coincidence and not by design.

Re: [Bug 317781] Re: Ext4 data loss

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I think the best solution is to move EXT3's behavior in this regard to 
EXT4, then ask developers to use the new style to ween them off of the 
old style little by little. Asking all applications to change isn't 
going to happen, and using the EXT3 save style is the only forseeable 
way right now.

If 9.04 ships with this bug, EXT4 should be altogether removed or at

9.04 would be a VERY bad move, and the press would have a field day.

Well what I was asking was if whatever patch that negates the issues 
described in this bug report is going to be a part of 9.04 or not. We 
can't expect applications to change their behavior overnight, it can 
take years. Certainly not even by Jaunty +3.

Would forcing all dot files to be written to disk immediately be a 
suitable fix?

[Bug 280621] Re: Gateway M-7315u laptop takes a very long time to reboot or shut down

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I noticed that when I press ALT+CTRL+F1 during shut down, it's hanging
on "shutting down Alsa". This time the shut down is taking even longer.
I'm attaching my dmesg output from today.

[Bug 283081] Re: Intrepid: Thrustmaster Gamepad Is Detected As A Mouse And Crashes X

[Jeremy LaCroix]

Per bug # 274203, the crashing part of this bug was fixed. No longer
does any of the action keys crash X.

However, the D-Pad still controls the mouse cursor by default which
shouldn't be. This makes the D-Pad controls not work in MAME. The only
thing left for this bug to be closed is for the gamepad not to control
the mouse cursor.

[Bug 283082] Re: Intrepid: Logitech Dual Action Gampad Detected As A Mouse, Crashes X

[Jeremy LaCroix]

Per bug 274203, the crashing X portion of this bug was resolved with the
updated package. However, the problem remains where the analog stick
controls the mouse cursor.

The D-Pad does not control the mouse cursor with this joystick, however
the analog stick does. Even though the D-Pad doesn't control the mouse
cursor, it doesn't work in any game I've tried either.

So the crashing part is fixed, now the only thing left for this bug to
be closed is to stop it from being detected as a mouse by default.

Re: [Bug 274203] Re: Joystick detected as mouse, crashes X

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I ran all of the updates, and I'm happy to say that neither of my two 
game pads crash X anymore.

However, both of them (Logitech Dual Action & Thrustmaster Firestorm) 
move the mouse cursor with either the D-Pad or the Analog stick.

The Logitech Dual Action has an analog stick and when you press it in 
any direction, it moves the mouse cursor. The D-Pad on this controller 
doesn't move the mouse cursor, but doesn't work in any game either.

With the Thrustmaster Firestorm, the D-Pad moves the mouse cursor (it 
doesn't have an analog stick) but the controller works fine in ZSNES but 
the D-Pad doesn't function at all in MAME.

So it looks like this bug is NOT fixed, however we're more than 50% 
there so I'm very thankful for that. The crashing appears to be fixed 
(at least for me) but the D-Pad or Analog stick still moves the mouse 
cursor. I understand some people like that, but I think it should be off 
by default.

Please let me know if there is anything I can test.

[Bug 275379] Re: Intrepid: KDM Sometimes Doesn't Appear

[Jeremy LaCroix]

This problem has started occurring again. This time though, one in about
five boots I get a message saying that Ubuntu has started in safe
graphics mode. If I click cancel on the safe graphics mode selection, X
starts up fine with the correct resolution and videocard driver.

I think the new problem is actually the same as this one. Before KDM
would take a very long time to restart and sit at a black screen. This
time it still sits at a blank screen but later comes up with the safe
graphics mode notice.

I'm attaching all of the log files I can think of.

Thank you for looking into it. Another thing that is really weird is 
that if you click cancel on the safe graphics mode selection, the X 
server starts fine normally with the full refresh rate and glxgears. It 
appears to me that something is taking too long to respond.

Re: [Bug 274203] Re: Joystick detected as mouse, crashes X

[Jeremy LaCroix]

Mpcd, that work around works but causes another issue. If I add that to 
my xorg.conf, and then boot without a joystick attached, the mouse stops 
working correctly. This is fine for my desktop because I don't mind 
keeping the joystick attached, but this is not okay for my laptop which 
I don't attach the joystick unless needed.

Even though there are probably work arounds, all joysticks need to work 
properly out of the box just as they used to. This is a HUGE problem 
because I'm sure there are a lot of people that play games on Ubuntu.

Re: [Bug 274203] Re: Joystick detected as mouse, crashes X

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I'm really curious why the new xorg would be considered if it broke 
joysticks. Not being able to use joysticks is a HUGE problem. For most 
of us, the work arounds are fine. (They don't work for me though). Since 
I'm sure we're all comfortable getting under Ubuntu's hood, we wouldn't 
have a problem with any work around that is invented.

However, joysticks not working out of the box when Intrepid comes out 
will not be acceptable. Joe User doesn't know how to edit the xorg.conf 
file to get his joystick working, and he shouldn't have to. Joysticks 
have worked in every Ubuntu release and should still. Gaming is probably 
one of if not the major shortcomings of Linux keeping it from mainstream 
use, and by the most popular Linux distribution in the world not being 
able to use joysticks properly is going to hurt the reputation of Linux 
even more.

Is there any way to force the old joystick driver for all joysticks?

Please, whatever we can do to make joysticks work just like they did in 
Hardy would be great. I'll help with whatever is needed. I'll test 
whatever I need to and I devote as much time to this as you need, let's 
please not let a huge bug like this remain in the final Intrepid release.

I tried StR34k 's suggestiong as well as the xorg.conf he posted and it
fixes the issue for me. However, if I try to merge his changes into my

so I need to use my xorg.conf but I would appreciate having StR34k's
changes into my xorg.conf which I posted.

StR34k, if you are reading this can you please tell me everything you
changed or merge your changes into mine? If I don't use my xorg.conf my
monitor goes to 70hz refresh rate which is incorrect for my monitor, it
should be 60hz.

I forgot to mention that the nvidia settings app fails to merge StR34k's
changes into mine.

Re: [Bug 274203] Re: Joystick detected as mouse, crashes X

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I need a little help understanding this. Every joystick I throw at 
Intrepid crashes X, so I don't see how the original bug is fixed. We 
could make a new bug report for each joystick if that's what you really 
want, but that would be quite a few bug reports since I have yet to find 
a joystick that does work in Intrepid.

In Hardy, all my joysticks worked flawlessly. A regression happened 
somewhere that doesn't allow me to use any joystick whatsoever in 
Intrepid. If I use StR34k's xorg.conf the problem is fixed, however with 
that xorg.conf if I boot without a joystick the mouse stops working 
properly.

I'll start posting bug reports for individual joysticks if you want, but 
I just don't see how that would make a difference when all joysticks 
don't work. I would rather just try to help find where the regression is 
and help you fix it so all joysticks work, not just the ones we file bug 
reports for. They worked fine in Hardy so it shouldn't be too hard to 
track down.

I apologize if I'm not understanding properly.

[Bug 283082] [NEW] Intrepid: Logitech Dual Action Gampad Detected As A Mouse, Crashes X

[Jeremy LaCroix]

Public bug reported:

I have a Logitech Dual Action gamepad. In Intrepid, this gamepad is
detected as a mouse. (If I move the analog stick, it moves the mouse
cursor). If I press any of the action buttons, X restarts. Playing games
with this gamepad is not possible. This gamepad worked fine in Hardy.

In fact, every gamepad I have tried does the same thing in Intrepid, so
it's not limited to this particular controller. I was told in bug #
274203 to report this bug individually for each joystick that fails,
however I think that's very silly as it is more important to fix this
bug for all joysticks, not just the ones reported. This is a huge issue,
there could be hundreds if not a thousand non-working gamepads.

Regardless, attached is my lshal output.

I have a thrustmaster gamepad. I think it's a thrustmaster firestorm but
I'm not certain of the exact type. It's a six button gamepad with no
analog sticks.

In Intrepid, this gamepad is detected as a mouse. (If I press down, up,
left, or right it moves the mouse cursor). If I press any of the action
buttons, X restarts. Playing games with this gamepad is not possible.
This gamepad worked fine in Hardy.

In fact, every gamepad I have tried does the same thing in Intrepid, so
it's not limited to this particular controller. I was told in bug #
274203 to report this bug individually for each joystick that fails,
however I think that's very silly as it is more important to fix this
bug for all joysticks, not just the ones reported.

Regardless, attached is my lshal output.

[Bug 274203] Re: Joystick detected as mouse, crashes X

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I marked bugs 273364 and 272421 a duplicate of this bug, since this
seems to have the most info.

Also, I reported individual bugs for each of the joysticks I have that's
not working, as requested by Timo. Please follow through on that with
your individual joysticks, and most here so anyone that has the same
joystick can confirm the bug report.

Here are mine:

Nope, it's USB.

Thank you.

Re: [Bug 200462] Re: Copying Files From CD/DVD Sets Permissions To Read Only

[Jeremy LaCroix]

So I guess support has already ended for Hardy? That was fast. I thought 
it was supposed to be an LTS release.

[Bug 274995] Re: storing mixer element values during shutdown hangs nondeterministically if wireless interfaces are still up

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I'm confirming this bug. I'm going to spend some time testing the
reported tweaks and see if they fix my problem. If they do I'll post
back.

I'm confirming that adding the line "ifconfig wlan0 down" fixed this
problem for me as well. I'm using a Gateway M-7315u laptop.

The work around adding "ifconfig wlan0 down" worked for me, but after
the updates last night, that work around stopped working.

I added the line to alsa-utils but it didn't work for me after the first 
time. Can someone please look at the alsa-utils file I have attached and 
let me know if I did it right?

[Bug 284951] Re: Intrepid: Gamepad "Saitek P580" not working in games, buttons not detected.

[Jeremy LaCroix]

I downloaded the latest daily image for both 32-bit and 64-bit and
tested my gamepads on each one.

I can confirm that I have no problems on the 32-bit version.

With the 64-bit version, the bug is NOT fixed for me. I confirmed that I
have "xserver-xorg-input-evdev_2.0.99+git20080912-0ubuntu5_amd64.deb"
installed (I must've gotten it from the daily updates) and my dual
action gamepad is still detected as a mouse and moves the mouse cursor.
(Which prevents some games from using it since it's seeing a mouse event
instead of a joystick event with a direction button is pressed).

I also tested this on my 64-bit install with all the latest updates,
it's not fixed there either. My dual action gamepad does work in the
32-bit version though.
