[Bug 250969] [NEW] reportbug can't get past restrictive ISPs

2008-07-22 Thread Norman Ramsey
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: reportbug

Reportbug tries to make a direct SMTP connection to a machine in the ubuntu.com 
domain.
This strategy is destined to fail when behind restrictive ISPs such as verizon 
and comcast,
which block outgoing smtp connections to all servers other than their own.

Ubuntu badly needs a central mail configuration for outgoing mail, which can be 
shared
among reportbug, evolution, Thunderbird, and any other application that wishes 
to
send mail (e.g., sendmail).  Perhaps postfix or exim could be adapted for this 
purpose, or 
perhaps a lightweight solution customized to Ubuntu would be better.  But 
information
about accessible SMTP servers and about authentication should be centralized.

[Bug 250971] [NEW] talkd uses obsolete /etc/inetd.conf

2008-07-22 Thread Norman Ramsey
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: talkd

Two problems:

1. The talkd package puts its inetd info into /etc/inetd.conf instead of
/etc/inetd.conf.d

2. The info itself is incorrectly formatted for the inetd that talkd depends 
on: talkd is using
a 'user.group' format and inet expects user only.

I also vaguely remember a permissions problem but I can't be sure of
it.

[Bug 250975] [NEW] ytalk hangs waiting for 'invitation on caller's machine'

2008-07-22 Thread Norman Ramsey
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ytalk

After working around bug in talkd, I attempted to use ytalk between two local 
users
on the same machine.  Both instances of ytalk hang 'waiting for invitation on 
caller's machine'.
I first encountered this bug in the early 1990s; it is discouraging to see it 
again.

It may be worth noting that ytalk 3.3.0-5 works perfectly on Debian lenny/sid, 
so it 
may be that if the talkd problems are cleared up this bug will go away.

I'm getting the same bug with the Dell P2715Q (basically the same
monitor but with a larger panel).

I am actually running Debian.  And the bug is more complicated than it
appears.  Setting

options nvidia NVreg_EnableMSI=0

seems to help *sometimes*.

Once I get a better handle on the problem, I will file a proper bug
report with Debian and will cross-list it.

The issue seems to be the power state of the monitor.

[Bug 792315] Re: screen tearing during video in unity 2d (but not ubuntu classic)

2012-09-23 Thread Norman Ramsey
I have a similar problem using Unity2D.  My machine was built to be a low-end 
HTPC with all the computation in the graphics card.
I got excellent results with 10.04 Lucid Lynx.  Upgrading to 12.04 has shown a 
*substantial* tearing problem using either
mplayer or mplayer2 with vdpau and proprietary Nvidia drivers.

The hardware in question is an AMD Sempron(tm) 140 Processor with an
Nvidia GeForce 210 graphics card.

I will run apport collect to provide more information.
