[Bug 252121] Re: Generating locale does not terminate
+1 Upgraded 7.10 server to 8.04 Hardy, i386. Same problem and thanks to boomy for telling right process to kill. After the upgrade ended (officially failed) I've rebooted and run sudo locale-gen sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales Everything OK now - no complaints from aptitude anymore.

[Bug 289781] Re: Intrepid: Xmodmap needs to be run again after resume from hibernate/suspend
I can confirm this bug in Intrepid. It worked in Hardy. Now after each sleep/wake-up I have to run `xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap` to get the *external* keyboard work properly. The internal notebook keyboard keeps it layout and shows no problem. -- Intrepid: Xmodmap needs to be run again after resume from hibernate/suspend https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289781 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 289781] Re: Intrepid: Xmodmap needs to be run again after resume from hibernate/suspend
So there are two problems caused by this bug, and I found following workarounds work for me: 1. The workaround for Xmodmap is to create a /etc/acpi/resume.d/50-xmodmap.sh script that runs `xmodmap /home/me/.Xmodmap`on every wake up. 2. The second problem is that layouts and layout switcher is broken after the wake up for the external keyboard. You have either to restart the computer(!) or to right click on keyboard indicator -> keyboard preferences -> Layout -> add new layout or remove existing layout -> close. Then the layouts are repaired again. Very annoying. And together with numerous other bugs and regressions in Ubuntu 8.10 (bluetooth, network and standby issues) it is really unusable for serious work. Since update from 8.04 I am only dealing with Ubuntu every day/evening instead of focusing on my daily tasks/interesting things. ** Attachment added: "Broken keyboard indicator after resume with external keyboard" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19807881/keyboard_layout_bug.png -- Intrepid: Xmodmap needs to be run again after resume from hibernate/suspend https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/289781 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 173721] Re: Gnome keyboard layout options (like remapping Caps Lock) are not reapplied after reboot
Does somebody know, how does the "Keyboard Preferences" / "Layout Options" feature of gnome work? I mean: * does it run xmodmap behind the scene? * every time you change something in the "Keyboard Preferences" dialog * plus every time you start the session * does it manipulate XKB layouts? * something else?

[Bug 390508] Re: notify-send ignores the expire timeout parameter
I totally agree with [wirespot] and IMO the notify-osd is totally broken by design. I exclusively use Ubuntu both at home and at work and use the notification subsystem to automate my life. I like to get notified about results of software build and tests; when the backup is done; getting notified about special emails in a different way (duration, icon). tail on a log file, grepping and piping to the notify-send to create flexible notifications is very important to me. The new notify-osd is trying to steel my time. If for example I get three similar notifications in 300ms cycle and wanted them to be shown for about 2 seconds and displayed one on top of each other (can do with notification-daemon), notify-osd shows them for 3 x 5 sec = 15 sec - an eternity for me and the overview is lost (notifications not shown at once). So solved problem pragmatically for me sudo aptitude install notification-daemon sudo aptitude remove notify-osd But my worry is, will the nofification-daemon still work in the Ubuntu versions after the Karmic? I would prefer the notify-osd being fixed.

I am currently experiencing this problem with my Lenovo X220 Notebook under Ubuntu 12.04, `lsmod|grep video` shows `i915`.
