The fact that you can crash your computer with 2 mouse clicks alone
should make this a high-priorty bug.

[Bug 222197] Re: [Hardy Heron] Broadcom 4318 won't connect to network

2008-08-08 Thread abatcher
Fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04 on an Asus 3000 laptop with BCM4318
[AirForce One 54g]

Used b43-fwcutter to install wifi driver and I could connect to the WPA
AP at my parents home, altough the available AP's don't show up in the
gnome network dialog, as they do on my other (centrino) laptop.

But now I can't connect to the WEP AP here or the open wifi (but that
has a weak signal).  DHCP is not working, so i tought: ill give myself a
static ip.  Problem still there, I can't ping the gateway.  I have been
reading about the iwpriv wlan0 authmode 1 & 2, but that is a setting for
the madwifi drivers, right ? there is no such thing in the broadcom
driver, or is there ?

I got it fixed, and I don't know exactly what did it.  I think a bad
signal was part of the problem.  iwconfig showed connection quality
around 40/100.  iwconfig wlan0 essid  works for now.

But I still can't see available AP's in de network manager or the gnome
manual config.  But iwlist wlan0 scan does show them.

[Bug 290704] Re: [fglrx][Intrepid] Computer freeze when switching user

2009-01-10 Thread abatcher
I'm having troubles with the same bug i think.

I was trying this command:
xinit xterm -- :1 vt8

Shouldn't this simply open an xterm applet (without window manager) on
display 1, virtual terminal 8 ?

It just makes my screen go black and my keyboard unresponsive :-(

Is this related ?

[Bug 290704] Re: [fglrx][Intrepid] Computer freeze when switching user

2009-01-22 Thread abatcher
As far as I understand, fast-user-switch uses startx/xinit in the
background to start a new X session on another display ? Or is this
wrong and my comment irrelevant ?

If I'm on the right track it means the problem is not only with fast-
user-switching, but with the underlying command xinit ?

If this is a fglrx problem, other distro's should experience the same
thing.  Searching in the fedora forums, all I could find was a small
thread: http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?p=1148421  But they
are talking about compiz being the problem.  This is not related,
because we have the problem too with compiz disabled ?

Funny analogy.  I feel it's more like having a trailer hitch (the
command is available), but using it breaks your car (computer freezes).

If there is really no fix (in the near future), maybe the fast-user-
switch should be disabled when fglrx is enabled ?

[Bug 325133] Re: [fglrx] Blank screen when fast-user-switching

2009-02-23 Thread abatcher
Duplicate of bug 290704  More comments can be found there.

Maybe fast-user-switching is not the cause of the problem.  As far as I
understand, it uses xinit to start a new x server on another display/vt.
Starting an xterm on display :1 and vt8 makes my computer crash the same
way.

[Bug 218308] Re: Rdesktop cousing system freeze when using Cisco VPN client

2010-01-18 Thread abatcher
I ran into this bug today too, exactly as #13.  I tried with and without wifi.  
I tried with 9.10 and and older 8.04.  
It's usuable for a few seconds and then locks the system up.  The only way to 
save the system is ssh'ing in from another machine and killing 
tsclient/rdesktop.

Then I might have found the problem/workaround:
In the performance tab in tsclient, check the "Hide window manager's 
decorations" option. 

It's running on both 9.10 and 8.04 for about 10 minutes and looks
stable.

2010-02-15 Thread abatcher
Chris, maybe the network admins are using transparent vpn routing to
interconnect some remote parts of the campus together ?

I've set up a transparent vpn with pppoe to connect a remote office with
ours.  Using rdesktop over this (transparant) vpn makes it crash too.
How does the application notice its going over a transparent vpn is a
big ?

I will try vpn over ssh later and report back. I don't really know it
would make any difference ..

Hiding the window manager's decoration works around the problem, but I'd
really like to know how this can happen ?

It looks like the time between hangs increases from 40, 80, 100 to 120
seconds and then stays constant at 120secs and is dependant on the

I can confirm this bug and its very inconvenient.

It's the same on the rt2860 v1.8.0 module and the v2.2.0 module compiled
from their website.

[Bug 356807] Re: rt_ioctl_giwscan log spam removal or fix

2010-01-13 Thread abatcher
I don't think it should be disabled, because it indicates something is
wrong.

DBGPRINT(RT_DEBUG_ERROR ,("===>rt_ioctl_giwscan. %d(%d) BSS returned,
data->length = %d\n",i , pAdapter->ScanTab.BssNr, data->length));

Why else would the connection drops for a few seconds ? Besides, it says
in the source code "rt_debug_ERROR".  If you don't like the messages,
maybe fix the bug instead of removing the message ?

Looking at the source code and the connection instability, it looks like
every 2 minutes the connection hangs.

I added a debug line in sta_ioctl.c at the start of rt_ioctl_giwscan.
It looks like this function is called only after the connection hangs.
