[Bug 527334] [NEW] grub: highlighted entry blinks in text mode
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: grub2 If grub is set to use text mode (GRUB_TERMINAL=console uncommented in /etc/default/grub), the highlighted entry of grub is blinking. This happens because of this line from /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme: set menu_color_highlight=black/white Bright background is not safe to use. The same bit can be interpreted as a blinking attribute. The BIOS default is blinking. I'm seeing it on Toshiba Satellite 1800. Maybe things have changes since then. To eliminate blinking, following line should be used instead: set menu_color_highlight=black/light-gray ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Wed Feb 24 16:07:14 2010 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10 Package: grub-pc 1.97~beta4-1ubuntu4.1 ProcEnviron: LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.31-19.56-generic SourcePackage: grub2 Uname: Linux 2.6.31-19-generic i686 XsessionErrors: (gnome-settings-daemon:1378): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_propagate_error: assertion `src != NULL' failed (gnome-settings-daemon:1378): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_propagate_error: assertion `src != NULL' failed (nautilus:1435): Eel-CRITICAL **: eel_preferences_get_boolean: assertion `preferences_is_initialized ()' failed (polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:1440): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failed (gnome-panel:1434): Gtk-WARNING **: gtk_widget_size_allocate(): attempt to allocate widget with width -3 and height 24 ** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 -- grub: highlighted entry blinks in text mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/527334 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 540432] Re: missing declaration of struct nl_addr (exists on upstream)
Actually, netlink-types.h is called "private" in a comment inside that file, that's probably the reason why it wasn't packaged. On the other hand, "make install" in the current libnl would install netlink-types.h. The same it true for the "version 1.1" commit. I don't know whether it's right to install netlink-types.h. If users of the library legitimately need the size of nl_addr, then netlink-types.h should be installed, or perhaps nl_addr should be defined elsewhere. Otherwise, Ubuntu does the right thing and "make install" should not install netlink-types.h. -- missing declaration of struct nl_addr (exists on upstream) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/540432 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

I'm on fully up-to-date Ubuntu 14.04 with the latest kernel 3.13.0-36-generic, and I got this error. I have a Lenovo ThinkPad W530. I use it either with the internal monitor or with an external monitor connected to displayport. I don't remember what I did today. I think I connected the display cable, closed the lid and then logged in. I do it every day, but something must have been slightly different today. I got "network disabled". I clicked on "Enable Networking" several times, but it didn't help. There was no error message and no change in the menus shown on left-click or right-click on the nm-applet.

Ideally, it would be great not to put the network to sleep if the computer is not going to sleep.

[Bug 1238813] [NEW] package gpm 1.20.4-4 fails to install if /dev/psaux is missing
Public bug reported: "apt-get install gpm" fails in the install script. /etc/init.d/gpm: 66: /etc/init.d/gpm: cannot open /dev/psaux: No such file invoke-rc.d: initscript gpm, action "restart" failed. dpkg: error processing gpm (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2 Errors were encountered while processing: gpm I'm using a custom compiled kernel. It has no support for the legacy /dev/psaux device. It supports /dev/input/mice. I believe the later should be default for gpm. The error is 100% reproducible. However, it may not happen if gpm was started, then uninstalled, and the system wasn't restarted, as the stale /dev/mouse would prevent the script from failing. I believe the way of testing for the file being readable in /etc/init.d/gpm is wrong. It fails and makes the script exit on the first attempt. Look at this example: $ cat mtest #! /bin/sh for foo in 1 2 3; do if :< /dev/missing; then break; fi sleep 1 done $ sh -x mtest mtest: 3: mtest: cannot open /dev/missing: No such file + : It would be better to use "test -r" instead. Also, I don't think the install script should fail even if gpm cannot be started. It's normal to install something, then configure it and then use it.

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-backports-modules-wireless-2.6.32-24-generic linux-backports-modules-wireless should include the ath9k_htc driver. It's a popular driver and it should be available in the sources, but it's not enabled. Ubuntu users keep asking in kernel mailing lists where to find ath9k_htc. I confirm that that ath9k_htc is not included in linux-backports- modules-wireless-2.6.32-24-generic, which is current on Ubuntu 10.04. "apt-file search ath9k_htc.ko" gives no results. ** Affects: linux-backports-modules-2.6.32 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ath9k_htc is not compiled in linux-backports-modules-wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/612187 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 612187] Re: ath9k_htc is not compiled in linux-backports-modules-wireless
I checked the package sources. It turns out Ubuntu uses compat-wireless based on Linux 2.6.34, which doesn't have ath9k_htc. Linux 2.6.35 was released recently. Once there is compat-wireless based on Linux 2.6.35, it will be here: http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-2.6-stable/v2.6.35/ -- ath9k_htc is not compiled in linux-backports-modules-wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/612187 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
