Re: [Bug 495213] Re: Server install with LAMP asks three times for MySQL password
Hi Jonathan, Thank you for the detailed email. While I agree with what you have said I still think that you have missed something: *New users*. The first time I installed Hardy server I was happy to see the easy selection of a LAMP server and decided to leave the MySQL root password blank so that I would not need to remember or document it. If I needed to use MySQL later I presumed that I could assign the root password when required. But when prompted a second time it made me think that I had made a mistake. When prompted a 3rd time I thought either I was doing something wrong or the installer had a bug. I was, quite frankly, surprised to see that it is the same in Lucid. If you put in a password the first time then it does not ask again. Would it not be better to just prompt with an 'are you sure' the first time you leave it blank and then remember that the blank password is what the user wants? With further thought I agree with you that adding further granularity to the tasksel list is not a good idea. I should not have even suggested that! By the way, what I have been doing for repeated installs, is set up one server, install all updates then add a whole lot of extra stuff using apt-get install, I also set up my own application programs and scripts, and then simply clone the whole drive with dd rather that starting from scratch. It is a lot faster. So for practical purposes I am very happy with the installer as it is. I am just trying to help and will continue to look for things that I believe should be fixed or improved. I want others can get as much benefit from Ubuntu as I do.

Re: [Bug 733866] Re: Battery indicator shows that laptop battery is fully charged when is not
Tested latest 5 Dec 2014 vivid-desktop-i386 image on the Acer Aspire One and am happy to report that the bug is fixed. The battery indicator now correctly switches from fully-charged Power to Battery when the power is removed. Thank you for fixing it. Regards Norman Perelson Original Message From: Christopher M.

Nonetheless, when I unplug the AC power and use the battery of the laptop, the battery indicator tells me that the "laptop battery is charged" even though it is not fully charged. It happens always, till the laptop shuts down because there is no battery left. In other words, the battery indicator works fine with AC power but it does not when working with the battery of the laptop. I am using ubuntu 11.04 alpha 3 (64 bits) with an HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop. This very same problem happened to me already with the ubuntu 10.04 release (and report the problem in the bug 577557) but a solution was not found.

Re: [Bug 733866] Re: Battery indicator shows "Laptop battery is charged" when is not
On 12.04 it is still faulty. (I have not tried 12.10.) Shows fully charged and still on power after being unplugged and allowed to run flat. It works perfectly if unplugged before booting Ubuntu. If put on charge while the indicator is working, and allowed to become fully charged, then the indicator gets stuck again. Windows XP running in Virtualbox does show the correct battery level regardless of the charge history. On Acer Aspire One.

Re: [Bug 733866] Re: Battery indicator shows "Laptop battery is charged" when is not
Tested on 12.10: Same behaviour. (Battery status stays "charged" after removing charging power.) Discovered a work-around to get the is to unplug from charge for a second or two, then plug in again for a second and then unplug it again before the battery status has returned to fully charged. I also found that suspending and waking the computer also gets the battery indicator working again.
