2006-04-06 Thread Ian McDonald
I had the same problem as this also with a DeskJet 840C. I could fix by deleting printer and then manually adding back in. This bug is a little more serious than importand and I think should be raised as it sent my machine load average right up (over 5) and kept it that way - hpiod was using most

Bug#279571: Working for me now

2006-04-05 Thread Ian McDonald
I rebuilt my kernel removing OSS modules, I removed jackd from my system and experimented a bit. It now works to record when I turn on the capture device in the capture tab rather than the microphone. If I use microphone you can hear it over the speakers and it doesn't record. Stability seems much

Bug#340202: Mouse device not being created

2005-11-22 Thread Ian McDonald
to 2.6.14 and the problem (mousedev not loaded automatically and no /dev/input /mice) disappears. I almost thought I'd made a mistake in my testing until I manually altered that makefile!! It is definitely not a kernel issue in my opinion. Ian -- Ian McDonald http://wand.net.nz/~iam4 WAND N
