I was able to run gnome-power-manager 1 time. It reported my cordless
mouse battery was at 14%. After I replaced the batteries in the mouse
the gnome-power-manager went away. It did not give my laptop's battery
condition or indicate whether the unit was plugged in or not.

I don't yet have Hardy installed. I'll have to download the RC first.

ACPID was set to Not start at boot. Changed that and now power
management starts, but it still does not give any information about the
notebook battery. It assumes the battery is not present. The attached
screen capture shows the Power Manager window with all "Battery Powered"
functions disabled.

After removing powersaved and restarting my notebook, guidance-power-
manager is working again, however I am still not seeing my battery
status. The problem now seems to be that acpid is doing it's job and
reporting status for 2 batteries...

/proc/acpi/battery/C170 is for an optional external battery (that I
don't have). /proc/acpi/battery/C171 is for the standard internal
battery. I believe guidance-power-manage is showing the status for C170
and not for C171. Prior to upgrading from Feisty to Gutsy the power-
manager worked correctly and showed status for the internal battery and
showed the external battery as not present. Something was changed during
the upgrade that now makes guidance-power-manage not show status for the
correct battery. Is this a bug or a configuration issue?

How can this be adjusted? If it can't, how can I make guidance-power-
manage show both C171 and C170.

[Bug 212042] Re: Unable to boot Gutsy kernel after upgrade from Feisty

2008-04-09 Thread RickKnight
At Wenzhuo's suggestion, I installed the Hardy kernel (linux-
image-2.6.24-15-386_2.6.24-15.27_i386.deb) and rebooted with this
kernel. This seems to have fixed the problem with my Via chipset. I am
able to boot the new kernel and my hard drives show up as SCSI devices
(/dev/sdxn) instead of IDE devices (/dev/hdXN). The pata_via module is
loaded as well as libata. The IDE modules are not loaded. It seems that
the problem with Gutsy has been fixed in Hardy.

I have found that if kill guidance-power-manager, restart hal and then
start guidance-power-manager everything works. So, is this then a hal
error? It seems it may be related to or the same as bug 145611.

[Bug 212042] Re: Unable to boot Gutsy kernel after upgrade from Feisty

2008-04-11 Thread RickKnight
I've found a work-around. I stumbled accross a bug involvoing Seagate
Hard Drives. One suggestion to fix that problem was to use kernel
parameter "all_generic_ide". I tried this parameter with my default,
unmodified Gutsy kernel (2.6.22-14-generic) but it did not work. Then I
tried it with my rebuilt Gutsy kernel that had PATA_VIA enabled. This
worked. I am able to boot to the Gutsy kernel and have access to all my
drives. All drives are installed as SCSI devices. The IDE modules are no
longer being loaded, instead modules pata_via, ata_generic and libata
are loading. So the steps to get the Via IDE chipset to work with Gutsy
are...

Build a new Gutsy kernel adding just pata_via module support
Install this new kernel
Add "all_generic_ide" to menu.lst for the kernel parameter for the new kernel
Reboot to the new kernel

Brian,

You've marked this bug as won't fix. What "criteria for a stable release
update" does it not match? This seems to be a very common problem, so
much so that Via Technologies has released a patch for the Feisty
kernel. Marking this as won't fix will mean that anyone with a mobo that
has Via VT82C586A/B, VT82C686A/B, VT823xA/C IDE chipset will not be able
to run Gutsy out of the box.

[Bug 109211] Re: feisty doesn't work with external CD writers anymore

2008-04-11 Thread RickKnight
I agree, the old IDE drivers need to be kept around until this bug is
fixed. I have an HP DVD Writer 640v external usb drive that would not
work on Feisty even though it worked flawlessly on Dapper and previous
Kubuntus. I solved the problem by removing the drive from it's portable
housing and installing it internally, but this solution won't work for
most users. Also, I created bug report 212042,
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212042, with a similar problem with my
hard drives, Via IDE chipset and Gutsy. The cutting edge is nice, but we
still need some compatibility with older devices, at least until the
bugs are fixed.

[Bug 190588] Re: After upgrade from Feisty to Gutsy, Gutsy boot drops to initramfs

2008-03-18 Thread RickKnight
I'm getting the same error. I upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy. I had one
problem in the upgrade and had to abort. I completed the upgrade in a
terminal with these commands...

sudo apt-get --configure -a
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Th upgraded completed successfully. When I rebooted there was a long
delay at the splash screen then this...

Check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline or missing modules,devices: cat
/proc/modules ls /dev

ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/(boot disk uuid) does not exist. Dropping to a
shell.

Then I get the Busy Box banner and prompt

(initramfs)

I have used blkid to verify the uuid is correct. I've edited
/boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab to use drive path (/dev/hdb5 &
/dev/sdb5) instead of uuid. I also modified /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
and added these lines (from a post at Launchpad)...

# added for support of older, standard hdx drives
piix
ide_generic
ide_cd
ide_disk

# black-list bad driver
ata_piix

# prevent unnecessary modules from loading (optional)
blacklist ata_generic
blacklist libata
blacklist scsi_mod

And then ran...

sudo initramfs-tools -u 2.6.22-14-generic

to rebuild the init image.

I have also removed and re-installed the kernel image (while booted into my 
Feisty kernel) but that, too did not work.
So far nothing has worked. I still boot to a busy box prompt with a message 
indicating my hard drives can't be found.

I am able to boot to my Feisty kernel without any problems.

This seems to be an ongoing bug. Is there any hope of a fix? I really DO
NOT want to have to reformat my PC to solve this upgrade problem.

[Bug 212042] [NEW] Unable to boot Gutsy kernel after upgrade from Feisty

2008-04-04 Thread RickKnight
Public bug reported:

After an upgrade to Gutsy from Feisty I am unable to boot the Gutsy kernel. I 
am able to boot the feisty kernel.
When I try to boot the Gutsy kernel, I get a busy box prompt (screen shots 
(photos) attached) with a message that my drive is not available. I have 2 ATA 
HDDs, 1 IDE/ATA CDROM and 1 IDE/ATA DVD. When I run "ls /dev/disk" no drives 
are listed and the folders /by-id, /by-path, /by-uuid and /by-label do not 
exist. I have verified the disk UUID using vol_id and blkid. I have verified 
/boot/grub/menu.lst has the correct drive UUID. I have verified /etc/fstab is 
also correct. I have removed un-needed devices from /etc/fstab. I have rebuilt 
/boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic to specifically load IDE_DISK, IDE_CD, 
IDE_GENERIC and VIA82CXXX and also to disable libata and the ata drivers. When 
I upgraded from Dapper to Feisty my system would not boot with the /dev/sd 
style drive path and I had to change /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab to 
/dev/hd. That hasn't worked with Gutsy as it doesn't create the /dev/hd devices.

I think this is due to an incompatibility between my Via VT82C586
chipset and libata.

Tonight I downloaded the Kubuntu 8.04 Desktop ISO. I burned the ISO and
then booted from it into Live CD mode. All of my drives are listed and
easily accessible. The devices are installed as /dev/hd, not as /dev/sd.
So it looks like whatever is causing this problem has been fixed in
8.04.
