[Bug 1737750] Re: nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 304.137-0ubuntu2 ADT test failure with linux 4.15.0-1.2 [error: implicit declaration of function ‘init_timer’]

2018-07-27 Thread Jim Kyle
I've encountered this bug on the past TWO kernel updates of my Xubuntu 16.04.4 (now .5) system that uses an Nvidia card. Initially I found that falling back to the previous kernel was a satisfactory workaround. This morning, I tried using the "Additional drivers" system setting to change from the N

Public bug reported: Xubuntu 14.04.1, fully updated. Since approximately November 15, 2014, running logrotate via cron.daily has stopped the proftpd server via SIGHUP, but server fails to re-start. Manually restarting works properly. Am not certain whether problem is in logrotate or proftpd, but n

For what it's worth, the same thing happens in Linux 3.2.0-59-generic i686; I don't have any older kernels still in place on either system to see if it goes farther back than that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https:

I see that the fix was released almost three weeks ago, but have not yet seen any update in my 12.04.1 LTS installation. Meanwhile the zombie attack continues. Will there be a backport to the LTS system soon? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is

[Bug 508186] Re: Samba fails to mount at boot works later

2011-02-28 Thread Jim Kyle
It's probably due to the new boot-up routines, which attempt to do the mounting before the network has been brought up. It's still a bug, though, since mounting of network connections should be delayed, not skipped. The workaround is to put a "manual" mount command into the /etc/rc.local file, whi

Update to comment 456: Workaround 2 had no effect either, but inverting the setting of Workaround 1 from "false" to "true" did solve the problem on the test system. It no longer comes up in "work offline" mode. -- [MASTER] [WORKAROUND] "Offline Mode" feature fails to detect proper online state

In my case the added code was VGA=771 and the effect was to convert the display font to unreadable garbage, not only for the text displayed during boot but for all virtual terminals using text mode. However the GUI on tty7 operated normally. Manually removing the VGA=771 from /etc/default/grub cure

I'm still affected by this bug, and have partially verified that it still exists in the 10.04 release. I'm running 8.04.4, fully updated (kernel is 2.6.24-28-generic), and the affected adapter is an nVidia MCP61 Ethernet adapter on the motherboard. The lockup only happens a short time after noon lo
