The key to solving this bug lies in the title of the bug.

Ubuntu needs marketing. Market it! The rest will follow ;)

Cheers,

Turning off "Desktop Effects" is a workaround, though not an acceptable

[Bug 352164] Re: PulseAudio needs to be removed from being initialized by default

2009-11-19 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
It appears to me that the original issue reports a failure of PulseAudio
to route sound to the correct hardware. There is a USB webcam detected
(see comment #6). The original reporter does not want his sound routed
to that device, understandably.

Yes this is still an issue, using:

This is a bug in the OS.

Lack of an "Ubuntu certified hardware list" is nearly analogous to
releasing untested product. Testing/QA is not a marketing function.

[Bug 426582] Re: (32MB) certain windows drawn garbled when XAA is used

2009-12-04 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
The above changes do not allow Compiz to run at all on my computer with
ATI controller:

[code]
rand...@ubuntuwillchangetheworld:~$ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY
[/code]

Does anyone know the command line equivalent of enabling the following?
1) System:Preferences:Appearance Preferences: Visual Effects: Normal
1) System:Preferences:Appearance Preferences: Visual Effects: Extra

Perhaps a command line will yield further clues...

[Bug 429251] Re: ATI graphics corruption with compiz on XAA

2009-11-11 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
EXA doesn't fix my issue.

lspci output:
"VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY"

My manually created /etc/X11/xorg.conf follows:

Section "Device"
  Identifier "ATI Radeon"
  Driver "ati"
  Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
  Option "MigrationHeuristic" "greedy"
  Option "AccelDFS" "true"
  Option "EnablePageFlip" "true"
  Option "EnableDepthMoves" "true"
EndSection

By default, there was no xorg.conf file in 9.10 Karmic Koala. I copied
it over from a stable and working 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope installation.

Sadly, a regression...

[Bug 564011] [NEW] Thunderbird 3.0.4 windowing issues (Lucid Lynx)

2010-04-15 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
Public bug reported:

Latest Thunderbird (3.0.4) for Lucid Lynx (Beta, all updates to 04/14/2010.)
Installed Version: thunderbird 3.0.4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1

Thunderbird windows don't redraw. "Hints", the text that should appear
when hovering over messages does not appear. Menus don't fill properly
when pulled down, just a blank square where menu items should be.

This occurs when Visual Effects (compiz) set to "Normal" or "Extra".
Thunderbird is the only app affected from what I can tell.

Thanks in advance,
Randall

Good news. Lucid Lynx Alpha 3 does not exhibit this behaviour on the Radeon 
Mobility M6 LY
(Neither does Alpha1 or Alpha2).

Compiz works! No corruption. Something must have been fixed between 9.10
and 10.04.

[Bug 533895] [NEW] Blank Screen on boot unless connected to external monitor [M6 LY]

2010-03-07 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

[9.10 Karmic Koala]

Laptop will not boot to login screen. Built-in LCD panel goes blank
immediately after the Ubuntu circle stage of startup is finished. (Just
before the brown splash page the shows the spotlight). I have inspected
Xorg.0.log and it appears that the xserver is incorrectly assuming that
the VGA-0 port is built-in.

Re: [Bug 509265] Re: Internal wireless not detected: ISL3890/ISL3886 chipset

2010-03-09 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
@Chase:

Thank you. I have installed linux-firmware-nonfree-1.6 and confirm that
the internal wireless is now detected and (mostly) functional.

A couple of observations:
1) In Ubuntu 9.10 the ISL3890/ISL3886 did not require the nonfree package.
2) The driver contained in linux-firmware-nonfree-1.6 does not report
signal strength accurately. All networks appear at 100% signal strength.
I already have an open bug on this issue for 9.10 and will amend it to
include 10.04a3 as well. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/441780

[Bug 475578] Re: [needs-packaging] mononono

2009-11-05 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
As another suggestion for a useful add-on, how about a package that
removes all mono and mono-related packages by removing a single package?
Currently a user must select all the mono stuff for removal manually, or
resort to a command line.

[Bug 444037] Re: Karmic Beta: Fails to "switch to another virtual terminal and then back to X" during "System Testing" (Checkbox)

2009-10-12 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
Hi Leann,

No luck. I cannot switch manually either. (using CtrlAltF1). The result
is a screen that is just random (but colourful) noise.

Thanks,

[Bug 441780] [NEW] KarmicBeta: Signal strength reported as 100% for all networks

2009-10-03 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)

Binary package hint: network-manager

The signal strength reported graphically shows all networks at maximum
strength (100%). This appears to be a regression as Jaunty release
reported various signal strengths with same wifi chipset.

[Bug 441814] [NEW] Karmic Beta: Visual Effects not usable

2009-10-03 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

A fresh install of Karmic Beta enables Visual Effects by default
(setting = Normal). This creates issues with artifacts on the screen,
and other random redraw issues, making the system visually unusble. A
screenshot is attached to this report.

Additionally, if Visual Effects are turned off, the windows redraw
correctly and no artifacts occur.

If Visual Effects are turned on again after that, the system says
"Visual effects could not be enabled." Multiple attempts will allow it
eventually to be turned on though. (2 or 3 attempts), with artifacts and
issues returning

[Bug 478685] Re: [M6] broken compiz / graphics stack / ati drivers (128MB)

2009-12-22 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
My experience is that enabling EXA in xorg.conf fixes only the
notification issue. It does not fix the lack of Desktop Effects.

EXA on: notifications work, no desktop effects possible (session locks
up, complete freeze)

EXA off: notifications unreadable, desktop effects can be turned on but
unusable due to screen artifacts, redraw issues, flashing.

[Bug 476702] Re: Audio has occasional skips/dropouts

2009-12-27 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
This bug can be reproduced on my system as follows:

1. On Karmic, install sox by:
sudo apt-get install sox

2. Use the 'play' command in a terminal:
play /usr/share/sounds/KDE-Im-Message-In.ogg
(use any sound file. the one above should be present by default though.)

3. Observe output from above command:

/usr/share/sounds/KDE-Im-Message-In.ogg:

2011-11-19 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
This discussion could be much more effective if we agree to get
*precise* about which "Community" we are referring to.

"Community engagement is broken" is much much too general a bug to fix.
It's like saying "Ubuntu is buggy".

Can we agree to get more *precise* in this Precise cycle? More here:
http://randall.executiv.es/uds-p-12

"Engagement between the Ubuntu-enthusiasts Community and the Ayatana
Design team is broken" might be a better bug title and might lessen the
swirl... but that's just a guess.

Community is this huge, nebulous cloud. And, to Mark's point we cannot
realistically expect to design Ubuntu (the OS) for everyone who might be
a part of the "community" and it's millions of outposts.

@David,
I recall seeing the device properly identified at/around 12.04 LTS release 
time, though I don't have the means to revert to check it again. Evidently 
between now and then something changed.

  "Ubuntu software is free. Always was, always will be. Free software gives 
everyone the freedom to use it however they want and share with whoever they 
like. This freedom has huge benefits. At one end of the spectrum it enables the 
Ubuntu community to grow and share its collective experience and expertise to 
continually improve all things Ubuntu. At the other, we are able to give access 
to essential software for those who couldn’t otherwise afford it – an advantage 
that’s keenly felt by individuals and organisations all over the world."

  Non-free software leaves users at the mercy of the software owner and
  concentrates control over the technology which powers our society into
  the hands of a few. Additionally, proprietary software stifles
  innovation, maintains artificial scarcities, and enables malicious anti-
  features such as DRM, surveillance, and other monopolistic practices.
  
  This bug is widely evident in the PC industry.
  
  Steps to repeat:
  
- 1. Visit a local PC store.
- 2. Attempt to buy a machine without any proprietary software.

Did you bother to check which systems are certified first?
http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certification/

Think of your experiences in the Windows world. You likely have used
hardware that is stickered "Windows Ready", "Works with Windows" etc.

The Ubuntu world is no different, and Ubuntu does NOT work on
everything. Please reset expectations accordingly.

Quite true.

If you've ever watched a new user work with Ubuntu, you'll likely have
noticed that they have a much easier time than "experienced" computer
users. No bad habits to unlearn, and they tend to involve themselves
less with "tinkering" on unsupported (and uncertified) hardware.

Re: [Bug 1] Microsoft has a majority market share

2010-10-20 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
The concept of a computer being a "bicycle for the mind" might be
helpful here, and might be worth revisiting.

If we (society) are "training" our students purely to be "users"
(consumers) of software then we will see the exact effect that you
describe (in the domain of OS'es and computing, at least). (Bug #1 has
in effect created a whole generation of consumers who view computers as
a way to get to entertainment).

We should instead be aiming to teach people to be creators and
contributors, so their information access tools remain robust and enable
any one to get to any and all information they need to educate
themselves.  Ubuntu is taking that challenge head-on. However, we're
still not able to channel all the energy that is lost to distractions
such as Facebook, YouTube, Farmville, WoW, and similar things that also
tend to "dumb down" (or at least divert). That will require a lot more
code...

Ubuntu awareness (and use) is very very low by our measurements so far.
We're conducting random public surveys in Vancouver BC to get an actual
percentage. Our goal is 1000 people asked "What is Ubuntu?"
We're not publishing until we have a stastistically valid sample. Stay
tuned for results ;)
Want to try it in your city/town? Email me for the methodology.

Re: [Bug 1] Microsoft has a majority market share

2010-10-22 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
@mzc
I agree.

@faldegast:
1) Why would we market a kernel?
2) Running Ubuntu on scrap/old is not putting our best foot forward, and
creates support issues.
3) For the server side, we have Ubuntu Server.
4) Ubuntu Software Centre is just that: a store for Ubuntu-compatible
software. The extension of USC to non-Ubuntu platforms would be
nightmarish in complexity.

Re: [Bug 1] Microsoft has a majority market share

2010-10-23 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
@Faldegast

The Ubuntu Software Centre (USC) is the way software gets distributed to
Ubuntu users. It can accommodate FLOSS, proprietary, and more. New in
10.10 there is a section in USC for commercial apps (that cost money)
too. The one thing that all software in USC has in common though is that
it is known to work with Ubuntu and can be installed with a single
click. (USC is not a place to collect and distribute random software
from unknown sources though.)

So, are you advocating something bigger than USC? A replacement for it?
A more diverse collection of software? Some new features? If so, the
best way to proceed would be to write a Blueprint and engage in a
discussion with the USC development team. There is a good background
document here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter

[Bug 689144] [NEW] [Natty] Cannot enable "Normal" or "Extra" effects

2010-12-11 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: compiz

Visual effects cannot be enabled using "Appearance Preferences" app.

Selection of "Normal" or "Extra" results in screen flickering then the
dialog asking whether to use current settings. Regardless of choice,
selection always revert back to "Normal".

Unity interface is present, but seemingly 2D acceleration only.

Kindly advise if your hardware is on the Ubuntu-certified list for both
Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10.
The list can be found here: http://webapps.ubuntu.com/certification/

Re: [Bug 1] Re: Microsoft has a majority market share

2011-01-20 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
@Tom,

The Ubuntu-certified list is generated by Canonical and is the
authoritative list. Absence from this list means that the system in
question has not been rigorously tested.

There are other lists that the community builds, which are "best
guesses". Some of those use "System Testing" but that's not a prerequisite.

The statement that "if it is not on the list then it almost certainly
will work too" is erroneous. A search through Ubuntu forums, Launchpad
Answers, and Ask Ubuntu will yield thousands of counter-examples.

@Mark
That's true. system76 is likely in a different category. I assume they
are in the new "Ubuntu-ready" category which just popped up recently on
the certification site. I will be sure to ask them though. Or maybe
they'll chime in :)

Cheers,
Randall.

Re: [Bug 1] Microsoft has a majority market share

Can we refrain from using the phrase "Linux usage", and from using the
words "Linux" and Ubuntu interchangeably? Are people really expected to
use a kernel directly?

My experience is that dropping the "L" word opens up our favourite
operating system to a much wider audience. More thoughts here:

[Bug 616023] Re: nVidia card : X won't start since 1.9 update, no screens found

2010-08-29 Thread Randall Ross (rrnwexec)
This bug is in need of a summary of current status. What works? What is
broken? And, what's the schedule for restoring nVidia to it's 10.04
functionality. This would be a terrible regression if it makes it into
beta.
